RelationCanvas

RelationCanvas is a free relationship chart maker that runs directly in your browser — no account required and no watermark on your work. It gives you a simple canvas where you add characters as cards, then connect them with arrows that each carry their own label. Because every arrow points in direction, a-sided crush can be shown as a single arrow, while a two-way relationship appears as two arrows between the same people, with labels that can match or differ. Each arrow tells side of the story: it shows how character sees another, and the opposite direction is a second relationship with its own label. You drag the cards into place, and RelationCanvas stores the chart in this browser.

RelationCanvas is built for original characters, novels and TTRPGs. Place OC among the people around them, or lay the cast out in groups, and label how each person sees the others. When you want a cast already drawn, open a template; when you want to begin fresh, start from a blank chart. Five original templates are part of the chart: My OC × the Cast, Ships & Love Triangle, Story Cast / Factions, Character Relationship Map, and Relationship Web.
