Challenges of Traditional Tools

For simple worlds with just a dungeon and a nearby town, traditional tools like handwritten notes or general-purpose editors like Word or Google Docs often suffice.

However, traditional tools fall short in tackling the complexity, organization, and accessibility required for a rich interconnected RPG world.

Scabard is the perfect solution for intricate RPG campaigns, addressing challenges traditional tools can't:

The challenges of keeping rich, interconnected worlds organized:
Challenge Paper Notes General-Purpose Editor Scabard Solution
Organization Lack of structure, leading to disorganization and information loss. Disorganized with no dedicated features for world-building. Dedicated world-building features, like 8 distinct pages types (Character, Place, Item, etc.)
Content Search & Accessibility Information misplacement. Can't access when away from home. Clunky search capability. Data often stored on one device, but not others. Robust search functionality from any web-enabled device.
Cross-Referencing Excessive searching causing delays and interruptions. Slow gameplay due to constant document referencing. Quick cross-referencing with auto-linking for smoother gameplay.
Expanding the World Cumbersome expansion, risking oversights and inconsistencies. Challenges in expanding and connecting new elements. Effortless creation of new pages with Proper Noun Detector.
Creative Opportunities Missed creative opportunities and overlooked connections. Failing to recognize potential connections between world elements. Active prompts for creative connections and storytelling.
