SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Visualize and map the relationship network around an entity to understand connections, gaps, and potential story hooks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Visualizes existing relationships as a network graph within your worldbuilding vault.
  • Identifies missing or underdeveloped links and suggests NPCs, organizations, or settlements to fill the network.
  • Creates detailed relationship narratives for key ties and seeds new catalysts for plots.
  • Documents secrets, debts, and power dynamics to enrich intrigue.

Quick Start

Use the map-relationships skill to map connections for a focal entity like [[Character Name]] or [[Organization Name]].

FAQPage Schema
How do I map character relationships and find story hooks in my worldbuilding vault?

To map character relationships and find story hooks, you parse a focal entity to visualize its network graph, identify missing links, and generate structured narratives for new plots. This reveals existing ties and suggests NPCs to fill network gaps.

What is the best way to visualize an organization's relationship network?

Visualizing an organization's relationship network requires mapping the focal entity to extract existing ties and power dynamics. The process identifies missing links and generates new NPCs or settlements to expand the story catalysts within the network.

Can I generate NPC suggestions based on existing character network gaps?

Yes, you can generate NPC suggestions by parsing the character network to identify underdeveloped links. The mapping process outputs potential NPCs, organizations, or settlements specifically designed to fill those structural gaps and seed new plots.

How do I document secrets and power dynamics between worldbuilding entities?

You document secrets and power dynamics by mapping the relationship narratives around a focal entity. The structured output records hidden ties, debts, and intrigue, enriching the worldbuilding vault with detailed relationship narratives and plot catalysts.

Does the relationship mapping require bidirectional linking for entities?

Yes, relationship mapping requires bidirectional linking to accurately process entity connections. The system parses the focal entity and relies on bidirectional links to map the complete network and output structured relationship narratives.

When should I use a relationship network map instead of standalone character profiles?

Use a relationship network map instead of standalone character profiles when you need to reveal gaps in entity connections and generate story catalysts. Mapping exposes missing links and power dynamics that isolated profiles cannot visualize or analyze.
