The cast, described once.
Make a character, place, object, weather or organisation in Author and describe it once. Every book can use it, and the book opens and checks without a network call.
- Roles: protagonist, antagonist, supporting, minor, narrator, setting, object, weather, organisation
- One cast entry serves every book
- The state of a character is worked out from its entry and the events
Maps with routes and distances.
Pin places on a picture or a drawing of your world and draw routes between them. A route has a distance and a mode, and gives the travel check its numbers. Without routes the check cannot judge how long a journey should take.
- Pin, unpin, route, draw
- Distances measured on the map, or given in kilometres
- Modes: walk, horse, bicycle, car, train, boat, plane
Honest note
Maps are on every plan.
- Pre-betaWorld maps
A feature of every plan.
