Characters have sheets now too. The Sheet tab puts stress, trauma, harm, load, cred, actions, special abilities and items on one screen, with a rules reference in the header that explains each line on click. Setup walks a player through creation and advancement, and the Dossier shows the same character as a Hegemony case file.

The studio takes a character's description and sends it to an LLM, which writes the image prompt in parts: appearance, face, outfit, pose, place and light. The GM picks a direction, a register, a look and a format, and gets four variants, each drawn from its own take on the prompt.

Meredith what the GM typed

Meredith, corporate security inquisitor: black armored coat, a targeting visor over one eye, a stun baton on her hip.
Hunting Eliot across the metropolis for a holographic sabotage.

A picture goes through two models: an LLM turns the GM's few words into a prompt that belongs to the setting, and a small image model draws it on your own card.

1. 01

   Prompt with the setting in mind

   An LLM gets the GM's words together with the setting: the world, the chosen corner, the faction outfit. It writes the picture in parts — appearance, face, outfit, pose, place, light — in four takes.

2. 02

   Assembly by code

   Code adds the style and the framing, and fixes what a small model gets wrong: objects from our century, hovering vehicles, planets that look like Earth.

3. 03

   Picture on a local card

   Z-Image-Turbo (INT8) in ComfyUI: eight steps, about 15 seconds a picture on one 16 GB card. Or any image API.

01Corners of the worldOne description, five corners: “a wide stairway rising to a great doorway, a few people climbing the steps”. Only the corner changes, and with it the materials, the wear, the light and the colours. 02Seeds or takes“A free-trader pilot in his forties, helmet under his arm.” Four seeds of one prompt give near-copies; four takes written by the LLM give four different moments of the same man. 03Hover-bikesThe word “bike” drew motorcycles on wheels. Now anything that hovers becomes a jet-sled, with its height above the sand and its shadow. 04Dive barA shoot-out in a dive bar came out as three people posing in a hangar. Now the place says what it is, and the shot has both sides, the flashes and the smoke.

Players keep notes on their characters: background, habits, goals, secrets. Each note can be shared with the table, shown to chosen players, or kept between the player and the GM.

Almost everything in a campaign has an audience: everyone, selected players, the owner and the GM, or the GM alone. Each player gets only what is open to them, and the GM can open any page through a player's eyes.

01Who can see thisCards, notes, links, clocks, map marks and files each carry a visibility chip. 02GM's eyesDita Valdez as the GM sees her: a hidden location, a GM-only link to her enemy, and three notes for three audiences. 03Player's eyesThe same page for Valentin: no location, no enemy link, no secret note. The note shared with him stays.

Every campaign starts with the Procyon sector map. The GM can add maps of systems or single places. Markers link to cards; anyone can draw on a map.

A canvas per storyline for the GM. Cards, notes, clocks, pictures and hand-drawn sketches, connected with threads.

01Indri StrikeThe job summary, the people involved, sketches of the site and the clocks. Drag the board to look around. 02Up closeSketches and clocks on the same board. 03Right-click menuRight-click the canvas: take an existing card, create a new NPC, item, faction, place or clock, or drop text, an image, a drawing pad or an extra. 04Existing cardFind any record of the campaign and pin it to the board. 05Quick extraA one-scene NPC: pick one of nine rolled names, from the setting or from the real world by country or region, say who they are, place it.

Drag to look around

News and rumors are written on the fly. The GM gives one of three in-world journalists a couple of lines about an event, or points at a faction clock and the people and places involved. The journalist pulls in what the campaign knows about them and writes three dispatches in their own voice, each from a different angle, and the GM airs the ones that fit.

What the players get depends on the story. If the event is public, the gist sits under the headline as a straight hook: a name, a place, something to chase. If it isn't, the GM hides the gist, and the players get only the dispatch itself — a biased, noisy gonzo piece with the useful grain buried somewhere inside. Under each story, people in the sector leave comments.

01JournalistsThree journalists, three sides: Lazarus the anarchist, Sterling on the Guilds' money, Herald with the Legion. Each persona can be edited. 02Ordering a dispatchPick a journalist, link records and clocks, write what happened. 03The feedStories on air with comments from people in the sector. Scroll inside the frame. 04From a clockRight-click a faction clock on a story board, pick “news about this” and leave “What happened” empty: the journalist picks the event from the clock and its faction. The story airs linked to the clock, and the clock doesn't move. Scroll inside the frame.

Everything the interface does goes through a plain HTTP API, and the API explains itself. The intro of the schema tells an agent where to start (log in, read /api/meta, list campaigns and members), how roles and visibility work, how to find ids and what the error codes mean. Every operation has a summary, its side effects and request and response schemas. Swagger lives at /api/docs.

One rule keeps the table safe: whatever the GM creates without setting visibility stays GM-only, so nothing reaches the players until the GM opens it. This was tested: two agents with no access to the code, working only from the schema, did a GM's chores — an NPC with a rumor, a link and a board card; a clock, a letter and a news story — with no stray errors and nothing leaked to the players.

Story boards have their own agent API: dump a board as text, then lay out cards, notes, clocks and threads in one call. Edits to cards, notes, maps, news and letters land in the campaign log with who made them and what was there before.

01Board in one callOne call lays out part of a story board: a card for a record found by name, a note and a clock, linked with threads. 02SwaggerThe schema in Swagger: the intro tells an agent where to start, how roles and visibility work and what the errors mean.

A whole campaign packs into one archive: records, notes, clocks, letters, news, maps, story boards, the log and every picture. Take it to another server or keep it as a backup. On import it becomes a new campaign: players with accounts on that server keep their access, and whoever imports it is the GM.
