Content Entry: Name

Identity, purpose and home​

Name the particular creation, its Content family and scope. Explain its fictional or dramatic purpose. A treatment links to its fictional identity rather than copying it.

Applicable constraints and prerequisites​

Link governing Core rules and required participants, places or systems. Name unresolved inputs and which decisions they block. Omit irrelevant domains.

Authoritative knowledge​

Record owned facts and relevant time ordering. Distinguish objective truth, sourced testimony, character belief, audience revelation and game state as applicable. Label intentional unknowns without resolving them by invention.

Relationships and use​

Link related entries and works. Keep baseline identity separate from arc-specific changes or game outcomes. For a scene, include viewpoint, purpose, entry knowledge and resulting change. For interactive content, add applicable actions, conditions, state, consequences and recovery. For a treatment, describe its medium-specific behavior or representation.

Review and unresolved questions​

Record the review method, findings and remaining questions. Check canon, applicable constraints, prerequisites and contribution to the intended experience. Return shared-rule conflicts to their owner. Do not equate a paper walkthrough with implemented tests.
