The Atlas
The Atlas is the central management panel for your world. Open it from the player avatar or settings icon in the top bar.
It has 8 tabs: Player, NPCs, Locations, World, Enemies, Lorebook, Memory Web, and Settings.
Your world is organized as a hierarchy — World → Region → Settlement → District → Building / Landmark. The Atlas lets you manage every level. See World & Locations for how the hierarchy works.
Player
Your character sheet. Edit your name, age, appearance, description, and portrait prompt. View your level, XP progress, and combat stats (HP, ATK, DEF, SPD).
Equipment — select weapons and armor from dropdown lists of equippable items in your inventory. Stats update immediately.
NPCs
A searchable directory of every NPC in your world, organized by settlement. Each entry shows the avatar, name, disposition badge, occupation, and home building.
Click an NPC to open the full editor with all character fields — see Personality and Motivations for the complete field reference.
Key actions
- Regenerate portrait — credit cost depends on your art model (1 for Default, 2 for BuddyMix or GPT Image). The old image is saved to your gallery.
- Load Image — assign an existing image from your gallery instead of generating.
- Copy to clipboard — exports all fields as formatted text.
- Create portrait states — Hero plan, 4 credits each. See Portrait States.
- Manage expressions — Hero plan, 10 credits for a full sheet. See Expression Sheets.
- Travel schedule — set a calendar of cross-settlement trips. See Daily Routines.
- Delete NPC — permanent, at the bottom of the editor.
Archived NPCs
When an NPC is removed (e.g. by deleting a hex), they're archived rather than deleted. The Archived subtab shows these NPCs. You can restore an archived NPC by reassigning them to a building.
Locations
All buildings and landmarks in your world, grouped by settlement. Each entry shows the name, type, and resident NPC avatars.
Click a building to edit:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Building name |
| Type | Building type (tavern, shop, temple, etc.) |
| Description | A short description of the building |
| Interior image prompt | Used for generating the interior image (1 credit) |
| Music | Assign a track that plays when entering the building |
| Map icon | The icon shown on the map |
| Map color | The building's color on the map |
You can also Load Image from your gallery, regenerate the interior, and add or remove NPCs assigned to the building.
Landmarks are outdoor locations without interiors — they appear here alongside buildings.
World
The world-level editor with two sections:
World Profile — top-level fields for your setting: era, geography, powers, conflicts, economy, and more. These shape how NPCs understand the wider world.
Region Tree — a drillable hierarchy showing your world's structure: Regions → Settlements → Districts. Click into any level to edit its profile. See Organizing Your World for details.
Enemies
Create and manage enemy templates. Each template defines:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Enemy name |
| Description | What the enemy is |
| Appearance | Physical description |
| Image prompt | For portrait generation |
| Stats | HP, ATK, DEF, SPD, and danger level |
| Spawn biomes | Which biome types this enemy appears in |
| Loot table | Items dropped on defeat, with drop percentages |
You can delete enemy templates from the editor.
Lorebook
Create keyword-triggered lore entries that inject into NPC conversations when relevant. See Lorebooks for the full guide.
Memory Web
A visual relationship map showing connections between you, NPCs, and narrative threads. See The Memory Web.
