What you will have
Your first working World—not a tour of every feature
At the end, you can open one Character inside a real Location, start a Bound Chat, and see how connected World knowledge changes the experience. That working loop is the foundation for everything you add next.
- 1 World with a clear foundation
- 1 Location inside that World
- 1 Character bound to the Location
- 1 Bound Chat using shared context
Start small. Connect everything.
