LoreForge Pathfinder 2e & Starfinder 2e Roadmap: The Monolithic ORC Engine

[!IMPORTANT] Active Alpha for Testers • Coming Soon to Open Access
We have evolved our generic D20 prototype into a dedicated, monolithic Open RPG Creative License (ORC) engine purpose-built for Pathfinder 2e Remaster and Starfinder 2e. Apply to join the PF2e / SF2e Alpha.

Welcome to modern 3-action tactical play on LoreForge Works. Rather than compromises that water down rules across incompatible D20 editions, our monolithic PF2e & SF2e engine is engineered specifically around the 3-action economy, four degrees of success, typed bonus cascades (circumstance, status, item), and 10-minute exploration procedures.


🏛️ Phase 1: The Three-Vault Feat Architecture & Archives of Nethys Routing (Live in Alpha)

Clean-room ORC compliance with instant tactical access.

🗂️ The Three-Vault Feat Engine

To keep high-level characters fast and readable during combat, abilities are organized into three purpose-built vaults inside the Character Forge and live sheet:

  • The Action Vault: Instant access to universal 3-action maneuvers and trained Skill Actions (Demoralize, Trip, Grapple, Battle Medicine, Seek, Recall Knowledge) complete with action diamond icons ([◆], [◆◆], [◆◆◆], [↺], [◇]).
  • The Ability Vault: Houses your Heritage traits, Ancestry features, and automatic Class chassis progression.
  • The Feat Vault (8,540+ Clean-Room Feats): Searchable, filterable access to over 8,540 canonical clean-room feats across Ancestry, Class, Archetype, General, and Skill categories—each wired with 1-click reference routing to Archives of Nethys (AoN).

✨ Phase 2: The Spell & Effect Vault & Typed Bonus Cascades (Live in Alpha)

Zero manual modifier juggling—circumstance, status, and item bonuses stack by the rules.

📜 2,250+ Spells & ~70 Interactive Effects

  • Tradition-Aware Spell Vault: Manage Prepared, Spontaneous, Focus, and Innate spellcasting across Arcane, Divine, Occult, and Primal traditions, with signature spell toggles and heightening support.
  • Typed Bonus & Penalty Cascades: Apply any of ~70 interactive spell effects and conditions (Bless, Bane, Heroism, Courageous Anthem, Frightened, Sickened, Clumsy, Enfeebled, Stupefied, Off-Guard). The engine automatically enforces PF2e non-stacking rules across circumstance, status, and item bonuses and penalties!
  • Pinned Active Effects Strip: Every active buff, condition, and step-down counter sits in a high-visibility strip at the top of the character card so nothing is forgotten mid-round.

🩹 Phase 3: Two-Stage Treat Wounds, Exploration Console & Strikes Armory (Live in Alpha)

Authentic Golarion exploration downtime and Rune-ready martial combat.

⚕️ Two-Stage Treat Wounds & Battle Medicine Cockpit

  • Stage 1 (Medicine Proficiency DC): Select Trained (DC 15), Expert (DC 20, +10 HP), Master (DC 30, +30 HP), or Legendary (DC 40, +50 HP)—or toggle Assurance—and roll against your target patient.
  • Stage 2 (3D Physics Healing): Automatically rolls 2d8 on Success, 4d8 on Critical Success, or 1d8 backlash on Critical Failure, syncing straight to your party member’s vitals.

🏕️ Daily Preparations & 10-Minute Refocus Console

  • 8-Hour Daily Preparations: One tap restores spell slots, replenishes Divine Font healing/harming pools, restores Focus Points, resets Hero Points to 1, clears Fatigued, and steps down Drained and Doomed.
  • 10-Minute Refocus: Recover Focus Points between encounters with a single tap.

⚔️ Martial Strikes, Rune Sockets & Hero Lab Online* Sync

  • Potency & Striking Runes: Socket Fundamental and Property runes onto weapons and armor with automatic Multi-Attack Penalty (0 / -5 / -10 or Agile 0 / -4 / -8) calculation.
  • Hero Lab Online JSON Importer:* Client-side portfolio ingestion for rapid character onboarding.

🚀 Phase 4: Starfinder 2e Parity, Encounter Budgeting & Open Beta (In Progress)

Expanding into the Pact Worlds and preparing for public Open Beta.

  • Starfinder 2e Tech & Tactical Parity: Full support for SF2e classes, ranged meta traits, archaic/tech gear tags, and vitality/shield tracking alongside PF2e Remaster heroes.
  • XP Encounter Budget Calculator: Live Trivial / Low / Moderate / Severe / Extreme encounter math that scales automatically with party size and level.
  • Live Battlemap HUD: Synchronized initiative, AC, and condition overlays for Owlbear Rodeo and TaleSpire.
