RolePlay Engine (RPEngine) is a comprehensive, feature-packed RolePlay framework for NeoForge designed to bring deep immersion, rich character customization, and realistic communication to your Minecraft server.

Whether you are hosting a hardcore RP project or a casual roleplay community, RPEngine provides all the tools you need—from customizable character sheets and dynamic chat degradation to trained messenger birds and global RP events.
