Fortress to Future: A Father’s Legacy Codex is a guided journal and legacy-building manual for dads who want to leave something real behind—a voice, a blessing, a memory that lasts. Created by Brant Rotramel, a husband, artist, and father to a nonverbal autistic son, this book blends emotional storytelling with practical tools to help you write your story, speak your truth, and record your legacy for your children to discover—now and in the future. Inside, you’ll find space to write about who you are, what you believe in, and what you want your child to remember when they need your guidance most. You’ll learn how to create private video messages, organize them into a vault, and even use QR codes so your child can access your words with the scan of a phone. You’ll also design a family crest, leave blessings for life’s hardest moments, and speak into the future like a modern-day Jor-El—one message at a time. Whether you’re a first-time dad, a seasoned father, or someone who never had a strong example growing up, Fortress to Future gives you a path forward. It’s part journal, part time capsule, and part emotional toolkit for building a legacy that lives on. This is for the fathers who know time is short… and love is worth preserving.
