The Census of Morrowind

Imperial Census and Excise Office

The Census of Morrowind

Create a Morrowind character, build the person behind them, or surrender the whole affair to RNGesus. The Census handles the paperwork. You handle what happens next.

⚔📜 Character Generator

Create a complete character in one pass. The build comes first, then the backstory is written for that exact person.

📜 Backstory Generator

Build the person who existed before the prison ship: upbringing, work, trouble, arrest, imprisonment, and the life they leave behind.

🪶 Name Generator

Generate a race-appropriate name from the Census's UESP-derived name corpus.

🧾 Build Preview

Choose a race, class, birthsign, and gender, then inspect the character you would actually start with. Player, NPC, and custom classes are available too.

🎲 RNGesus Take the Wheel

Race, gender, class, skills, birthsign, and backstory are surrendered to the dice. Mechanical choices stay legal. The story is allowed to get strange.

📚 Reference

Browse the mechanical data, names, traits, classes, starting spells, faction matches, and backstory material used by the Census.

🧾 Build Preview

Choose any race, class, birthsign, and gender, then see the character you would start with. Custom Class lets you supply the specialization, favored attributes, and ten skills yourself.

Race Gender Class Birthsign

Preset classes use their canonical specialization, favored attributes, and major/minor skills. Custom Class gives you control over all of them.

🎲 RNGesus Take the Wheel

No steering. No sensible little guardrails. The Census rolls the whole character record, including preset classes, NPC classes, custom classes, and the stranger corners of the backstory.

Anything mechanically legal is fair game. The occasional bizarre result is intentional. Vvardenfell has floating wizards, sentient trees, and people who think the moon is a god. A questionable career choice is not where we draw the line. RNGesus also ignores ordinary naming conventions: the name may combine a documented given name from any race or gender with a documented family name or title from any race.

One roll creates the complete record.

📜 Backstory Generator

Create the person who existed before the prison ship. The Census determines the life they lived, the trouble that caught up with them, and what they hope to do next.

Tone Race preference Gender preference Birthsign preference Fate

Everyone begins as a prisoner aboard the ship. The generator determines who you were before that ship and why the Empire had you in custody. Fate describes the character's attitude or beliefs, not a claim that the Census knows their destiny.

The result is written as a self-contained personal record.

⚔📜 Character Generator

The Census's complete character generator. It creates the build first, then writes a backstory for that exact character.

Build Style Race preference Gender preference Birthsign preference Build Focus Tone Fate

Allow NPC classes Include NPC class templates in the character roll.

Build first. Backstory second. One complete character record. With NPC classes enabled, the class roll considers the top 12 compatible classes instead of the normal top 4.

🪶 Name Generator

Choose a race and gender, then let the Census issue a fitting name from the UESP name corpus. Randomize rolls the race and gender for you.

Race Gender

Generate keeps your selected race and gender. Randomize rolls both.
