World Builder
User Role: Writer / Game Designer / Creator Use Case: Fleshing out a fictional world with deep history, geography, and culture.
The Prompt
I want you to act as a world-building consultant. I am developing a [GENRE, e.g., High Fantasy, Hard Sci-Fi, Cyberpunk] setting for a [NOVEL/GAME/MOD].
The core concept of my world is: [BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CORE CONCEPT].
Please help me expand this world by detailing the following:
1. **Geography & Climate**: Describe the major regions and how the environment affects life there.
2. **History & Lore**: List 3 pivotal historical events that shaped the current world state.
3. **Societal Structure**: Explain the primary forms of government, social classes, and main cultural values.
4. **Magic or Technology System**: Outline the rules governing how [MAGIC/ADVANCED TECH] works and its limitations.
5. **Conflict**: Identify the major tensions between different factions or nations.
Be creative and original, avoiding overused tropes unless I specify otherwise.Tips for Success
- Set the Tone: Tell the AI if you want a “Grimdark”, “Hopeful”, “Whimsical”, or “Clinical” tone.
- Start Small: Sometimes it’s easier to build around one city or one character first.
- Iterate: Once the AI gives you an overview, ask follow-up questions about specific details like “Tell me more about the religious ceremonies of the desert nomads.”
Example Output
“For a steampunk world where floating islands are the norm, the AI might describe a world where ‘Air-Pressurized Elevators’ are the primary transport and ‘Oxygen Scarcity’ is the main political driver.”
