Design your story world like a system.
MagicQuill is a visual story bible for novelists and worldbuilders. Map your cast and the web of relationships between them, lay your timeline across a whole series, and keep your canon — the factions, the lexicon, the cosmology — in one place that never contradicts itself.
Four moves. One living map.
Stop keeping your world in twelve documents that quietly disagree with each other.
Cast it
Drop in your characters — people, AIs, factions, whole houses — each on its own card with a sheet: role, faction, attributes, arc.
Wire it
Draw the relationships as a web: parent, rival, creator, love, betrayal. Lineage, bonds and conflict, each colour-coded.
Time it
Lay every beat on one timeline — from deep backstory to the finale — and tag each event to the book and character it belongs to.
Lock it
Keep the canon in a story bible and a lexicon, so your factions, invented words, and cosmology all stay true — book after book.
Everything a big world needs. Nothing it can lose.
The Board
A pannable, zoomable canvas of character cards you can drag anywhere. Your whole cast, laid out the way your head sees it.
The Relationship Web
Every entanglement drawn as an edge — colour-coded by kind, labelled in your words. Select a character and their whole web lights up.
The Timeline
One spine for the entire series. Backstory, the inciting event, the finale — each beat anchored to its year, its book, its character.
Books & Series
Your volumes are first-class. Give each a logline and status, and see exactly which characters carry which book.
The Lexicon
The invented tongue of your world — every coined term and its meaning. Flag the secret cosmology that's felt in the prose but never named.
The Story Bible
Premise, spine, themes, craft rules — the canon everything else answers to. Editable, always in reach, one source of truth.
Seven screens, one living world.

You do the writing
MagicQuill holds the structure so a long story can’t contradict itself. The words stay yours.
