Atlas
Write your worlds. Run your campaigns. Share them.
Bring your universes to life, keep track of your sessions, and publish them for others to explore.
What is Atlas?
Atlas is a JDR Ninja module that brings several things together in one place: a workshop where you write your universe (places, factions, characters, events), interactive maps, a timeline, and a campaign space where you track your sessions (arcs, sessions, plot hooks, player characters).
Everything you write is linked. A session can mention an NPC, a plot hook can point to a city, an arc can build on a faction. The editor keeps track of these links and shows them both ways: from the article to the sessions that mention it, from the session to the articles it references.
You can work solo or invite others: each campaign has its own permission system to give your players or a co-GM exactly the rights you want: read, create plot hooks, edit an arc, manage members. You stay in control of what goes public: drafts, secret blocks, upcoming sessions hidden by default.
And when you're ready, you publish. Your world joins the public directory, reads like a wiki, and your campaigns can be followed online: other GMs and players can explore them. Browse the worlds already shared.
One world, many campaigns
A single lore base. Several sessions that build on it without duplicating it. A city written once serves every campaign that passes through it.
An editor that links everything
Mention an article with @, the editor finds the reference and keeps it indexed. On the NPC's page, you see every session where it appears.
Published and explorable
When you publish, your world becomes a wiki anyone can read and your campaigns can be followed online. Other GMs explore, draw inspiration and read their worlds. And you read theirs.
What you can write
World side
Typed lore articles (place, character, faction, culture, species, item, event, document, rule, note), sorted into categories, linked together. Interactive maps with clickable markers and a timeline to order the world's events.
Campaign side
Narrative arcs, dated sessions, plot hooks with their status (to resolve, in progress, resolved, failed), NPCs specific to the campaign, player characters with their session reports. Invited members with fine-grained permissions per arc, hook or NPC.
Everything goes through the same editor, with autosave and local recovery in case of an accidental close.
