LoreMaster

Overview

LoreMaster is a sophisticated mobile platform designed for «Game Masters» and RPG enthusiasts who architect complex fictional universes. Traditionally, world lore is managed through fragmented notebooks and text files. LoreMaster bridges the gap between classic traditions and modern technology, providing a structured environment for creating characters, locations, and epic storylines.

My role

I served as the Lead Product Designer, working in close collaboration with the project’s Product Owner. My responsibility was to translate the complex, data-heavy requirements of RPG systems (like DnD) into a seamless mobile experience. I designed the entire cross-platform interface (iOS & Android) from the ground up, ensuring the product felt native and high-end.

The Challenge

The primary challenge was managing information density. RPG worlds contain thousands of interconnected objects: locations, NPCs, factions, and quests. Designing a mobile-first interface that remains intuitive while handling such a massive scale was a significant UX hurdle. We had to evolve the traditional «notebook» workflow into a digital ecosystem that doesn't just store data but actively helps the user create it. I had to design the interface so that the AI wasn't just an add-on, but a central tool for navigation and editing massive amounts of data on mobile devices.

The Process

Phase 1: Research, UX Foundation & Onboarding Strategy

The first stage involved an extensive review of existing manual and digital solutions. We identified that «Empty Page Syndrome» is the biggest barrier for new players. To solve this, I designed a structured onboarding and world-creation flow. We moved away from traditional text fields toward an interactive, step-by-step process. This simplified the entry point for beginners and systematized data for veteran masters, providing a modern evolution for classic role-playing systems.

Phase 2: Core Screens and Dynamic UI

To match the community's high expectations, I implemented a «Liquid Glass» aesthetic across the main interface. A key innovation is the dynamic background system: the app’s color palette and blur effects adapt to the world’s primary imagery in real-time. This ensures that the core screens — from character profiles to location lists — feel deeply immersive.

I designed a modular system of information cards to handle the high density of lore data. On the main dashboard, users have a bird's-eye view of their worlds, while the internal sections (Locations, NPCs, Quests, Items) feature a clear hierarchy. For instance, character screens provide a comprehensive overview of attributes, inventory, and backstory without cluttering the workspace. All visual assets are AI-generated and contextually adapted to the specific setting, ensuring a cohesive and living world across every screen of the application. This phase also covers the specialized In-Character Chat. This feature allows users to engage in real-time dialogue with any generated NPC, powered by an AI that adopts the character's unique traits and lore.

Phase 3: AI-Assistant and Lore Management

The core feature is the AI-assistant chat. It allows for instant updates, finding hidden connections between characters, and generating new quests. I designed an intuitive editing interface, including edge cases for object deletion and mass generation, making universe management feel fast and responsive. Through the chat, users can search for info or make global edits to the world logic, allowing the Master to stay focused on the story.

Results

LoreMaster is currently a high-performance cross-platform application (built on Flutter) that represents the next stage in the evolution of role-playing games. By moving from static text to a dynamic, AI-enhanced environment, we created a tool that serves both veteran masters and a new generation of players.
