World

Factions factions Factions are the named organizations in your world - governing bodies, guilds, cults, criminal networks, or any group with shared goals. Each has a public face (`basicInfo`), a hidden agenda (`hiddenInfo`), and a type (major or minor). Items items Items are the objects players can carry, equip, and use. During play all `items` are AI-generated, but every item that can appear in a `startingItems` list - on a trait, story start, or `itemSettings` - must be defined here first. Locations locations Locations are the named places on the map - cities, ruins, dungeons, waypoints. Each has a `basicInfo` description for the narrator, optional `hiddenInfo`, named `areas` inside it with their own descriptions, and `paths` to adjacent `locations`. Map Editor map-editor The Map Editor is a visual canvas accessible from the **Regions** and **Locations** sidebar items. It's the fastest way to build the world map - you don't have to touch JSON for placement at all. NPC Types (Advanced) npcTypes NPC types define behavior templates for categories of NPCs. Each type lists `vulnerabilities`, `resistances`, and `immunities` to `skills` and damage types. NPCs npcs `basicInfo` is what the narrator reads during play, so any appearance you want described in play must live here; it is also the image generator's source when `visualDescription` is empty. `hiddenInfo` is what the player has not yet discovered (revealed only through play). `visualDescription` is read only by the image generator (never the narrator) and takes priority over `basicInfo` for portraits, so use it alongside `basicInfo` only for image-specific appearance the narrator should not describe. Premade Characters premadeCharacters Pre-built character templates a player can select at session start instead of building one from scratch. JSON-only field with no dedicated editor panel - edit it via the full-world JSON tab. Quests (Advanced) quests Quests are pre-authored story objectives that start hidden and become visible only when a trigger fires `quest-init`. Every quest needs at least one trigger pointing to it - `quests` with no trigger are permanently unreachable. Realms (Advanced) realms A realm is the top-level container for your `regions` - the world, country, or dimension the story takes place in. Most scenarios need exactly one. Use multiple `realms` only for true planar or dimensional scenarios. Regions regions Regions are the geographic map units - the named zones that appear as cells on the player's interactive map. A realm contains all `regions`; `locations` are the specific points of interest inside a region. Story Overview storySettings `storySettings` contains the world background and quest generation guidance for your scenario. `worldBackground` is the canonical world description; `questGenerationGuidance` is a targeted brief for dynamically-generated `quests`. Story Starts storyStarts Story starts are the selectable opening scenarios players choose from at the start of a game. Each defines the initial scene, what the player has, and the first narration. A scenario needs at least one start; most have two or three. World Lore worldLore `worldLore` is ambient context the AI draws on when generating narration and NPCs. It is not player-visible - players never read these entries directly. Think of it as the set of facts the narrator considers true about the world.
