Valheim 1.0 · Inventory, quality & skills

Valheim Character Editor

Open a character file (.fch) to edit its inventory and skills in your browser. Raise item quality past the pre-Forge cap — the file never leaves your machine and the game's cheat flags are never written.

Drop your .fch file here

Folder mode saves in place and writes a timestamped backup first (Chrome and Edge on desktop).

Where are my characters?

Windows (Steam Cloud):

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\characters

Windows (local):

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\IronGate\Valheim\characters_local

Linux / Steam Deck:

~/.config/unity3d/IronGate/Valheim/characters

macOS:

~/Library/Application Support/unity.IronGate.Valheim/characters

Before you edit

  • Quit Valheim completely first, or the game will overwrite your changes on its next save.
  • Keep a copy of the original file. Folder mode makes a backup automatically.
  • Only the inventory and skills sections are rewritten. Every other byte is copied from the original.
  • With Steam Cloud, pick “keep local” if Steam reports a sync conflict afterwards.

About cheat flags

  • Valheim 1.0 stores a per-character used cheats flag and a per-item cheated mark. Either one blocks achievements.
  • This editor never sets either one. Editing quality, items or skills leaves them exactly as they were.
  • If a character already carries a flag, the Integrity tab can clear it on request.
  • Items you add are stamped as crafted by your character, the same way a normal crafting-table item is.
  • Whether a server accepts edited characters is up to that server.
