# Storied

An AI-powered text adventure RPG where a frontier LLM serves as the Dungeon Master.

## Concept

Storied is a text-based storytelling game that embraces AI creativity to weave compelling narratives. The world builds itself lazily as you explore - locations, characters, and lore emerge organically and persist as markdown files, creating a living world that grows with your adventures.

## Features

- **AI Dungeon Master**: Powered by Claude, the DM interprets your actions, generates rich descriptions, and maintains narrative continuity
- **Lazy Worldbuilding**: The world starts sparse and resolves to detail as you explore - each location, NPC, and piece of lore is generated when needed and persisted for consistency
- **5e SRD Rules**: Built on the 5th Edition System Reference Document for familiar mechanics
- **Persistent World**: All world content saved as markdown files - your world grows over time
- **Tool Generation**: The AI can create procedural tools (dungeon generators, name generators) that become part of your world's DNA
