Metacreator

Metacreator is a character creation and management software produced by Alter Ego Software. The software serves multiple gaming systems, and specifically supports Ars Magica by a template providing the rules (including much of the text) needed for character generation and advancement for core ArM5 and ArM4.

In addition, expansion packages are available with support for:

• True Lineages and Guardians of the Forest (as a bundle)
• The Mysteries Revised Edition and Mystery Cults (as a bundle)
• Covenants
• Houses of Hermes Societates and Lion and the Lily (as a bundle)

It is also possible to define and create your own rulesets, accommodate house rules, insert new elements such as new spells, and so on.

The ease of creating and maintaining ArM characters and covenants in Metacreator is substantial, and the program is promoted by Atlas Games on its Ars Magica webpage as an excellent aid to play.
