Less searching.
More storytelling.

Ordinary Markdown documents. A readable foundation you can keep, edit, and make your own.

01

Give every detail a home

Character, location, faction, culture, magic-system, and history templates connect through a clear folder structure and setup guide.

02

Separate fact from possibility

A canon register distinguishes confirmed facts from drafts and retired ideas. Keep your experiments without confusing them with the story you’ve committed to.

03

Catch the cracks in continuity

Use the timeline tracker and contradiction-review checklist to examine dates, character knowledge, and the rules your world depends on.

04

Learn by following the connections

A small original example setting demonstrates the workflow. Optional AI review prompts focus on your supplied material—not inventing new canon.

Start small. Build with intention.

One world. A clearer foundation.

Your free canon check

Before the next chapter,
check the foundations.

Choose one scene or campaign event. Run these three checks against your existing notes—no manuscript upload, no AI required.

  1. 1. What is actually confirmed?

    Label each relevant fact as canon, draft, or retired. Flag anything whose status is unclear.

  2. 2. Do the dates and knowledge line up?

    Check travel time, event order, and what each character could know at this point.

  3. 3. Are the world’s rules still intact?

    Compare the scene with established magic, faction, and location rules. Record contradictions before revising.

Keep the wonder. Lose the chaos.

Build your world. Keep your canon. Write with confidence.
