World Content

Own particular fictional identities, occurrences and facts under World Foundation, Setting Rules and Lore policy. Narrative, visual and game constraints apply only when relevant.

Cultures	Practices, values, language norms and internal variation.	Geography and inherited events; not necessarily one faction.
Historical events	Time ordering, causes, participants, consequences and evidence.	Relevant actors and places; distinguish fact from disputed claims.
Characters	Identity, goals, motivations, history, relationships and relevant beliefs.	Applicable cultures, events and places; link arc-specific changes.
Creatures	Nature, habitat, behavior and ecological or mythic role.	Habitat/ecology; enemy treatment only if needed.

These records can be sketched together. Resolve causal chronology and identity relationships before production uses them as established facts. A named weapon belongs here even if the novel has no game. Link its playable treatment to Gameplay, its appearance to Visual, and a playable place to Level.

Check: Can the author explain what exists and what happened without confusing a representation, belief or game outcome with objective canon?
