A flag is a question, not a verdict
A spike can be a satisfying class evolution. A regression can be an intentional curse. The planner surfaces pacing changes so you can make them legible to readers.

Character Progression Planner
Map level and power milestones across a book or series. The curve calls out sudden spikes, flat stretches, and backwards moves, then gives you a clean CSV and review report to carry into outlining.
Milestone plan
Build the curve
Keep rows in story order. Power can be a combat score, cultivation rank index, total stat points, or any one number you use consistently.

Save or export the plan
A saved draft stays in this browser. CSV and copied reports include only the rows you entered.
Spreadsheet-ready: milestone, level, power, delta, signal, and note.

Use one power measure per curve
Total stat points, damage per round, cultivation stage index, or a hand-authored power score all work. Mixing units makes the line look precise while saying very little.

Questions about this tool
What do I enter?
A row for each milestone in story order: a marker, a level, a power number, and an optional note. Power can be a combat score, a cultivation rank index, total stat points, or any single number you use consistently.
What counts as a spike, a plateau, or a regression?
A spike is a gain larger than 1.75 times your median positive gain, checked once you have at least three gains. Flat power is a plateau. Any lower level or power than the row before is a regression.
Is my plan saved?
Only if you choose Save locally, and then only in this browser. Load saved brings it back. Nothing is uploaded, and if your browser blocks local saving, CSV export still works.
What do I get out of it?
A CSV of the plan with its analysis, and a copyable review report. Both hold only the numbers and notes you entered.
