Set up & Use Lore

Lore wraps your course in a narrative — so the content feels like an adventure instead of a worksheet. Lore holds three things: the kingdom (its name and its sovereign), the cosmic Force that runs through it (a name plus two opposed aspects), and the cast: a party of eight companions.

Lore belongs to the Chronicle (the course), and every Campaign (unit) inside that course shares it. It describes where a story happens, never what happens: the what — the story type, tone, and central conflict — lives on each unit’s Quest, authored in the campaign sheet. One realm, many arcs.

Lore is also optional. A course with no Lore authored plays in the Default world, where the AI supplies a generic setting and cast and the Quest alone drives generation. Authoring Lore overrides that default.

Author your course’s Lore

1. Open the course's Lore

   Open your Chronicle (course) and use the Lore card’s Edit Lore action — the same editor opens from the course’s edit sheet. On a course still playing in the Default world, the action reads Customize instead.

   The course page also carries a read-only door: Explore “<Kingdom>”’s Lore & Characters opens the Lore the way a student meets it — the opening passage, then all eight companions with their roles, and keeps Edit Lore in its bottom corner.

   

   Authoring is Guided only: an inline mad-lib composes the Lore from single-word blanks, first for the kingdom and Force as one untitled opening passage, then for The Party: the eight companions, each with its own set of typed blanks. Tap any highlighted word to change it. There’s no fill-it-for-me shortcut; every blank ships with a sensible default, so a Lore is already valid the moment you open it and you only edit what you care about.

   

   The editor opens straight into the blanks under The Lore; there is no freeform mode to switch to.

2. Save the Lore

   Save. It is stored on the course itself and takes effect immediately for every unit in it — there is nothing further to attach.

Change Lore later

1. Edit or replace the course's Lore

   The course’s Lore card offers two actions: Edit Lore opens the editor on what’s already there, and Replace Lore starts the mad-libs over from a fresh set of blanks. Either way the change applies to the whole course the moment you save, and to no other course.

   Nothing to sync

   There are no templates and therefore nothing to sync. The older “Sync from Template” action and its staleness indicator were removed along with the shared-world model — if you see them referenced anywhere, that reference is stale.
