Location Details

Generates location descriptions, areas, and paths. Low priority: a well-written basicInfo carries most of the load. Use custom to add sensory layers, archetype integration rules, and atmosphere guidance.

Every area should express a different facet of its core tension."

Fields

custom

The only key — free-form rules layered on top of each location's basicInfo.

Authoring pattern

Cover in custom:

  • Three sensory layers on first entry: sight, sound, atmosphere — one detail each, woven into the prose.
  • detailType interpretation guidance for your world's location archetypes.
  • Atmosphere rules specific to location types (e.g. how dungeons feel vs. cities vs. wilderness).
