The story bible and how to fill it in

The story bible is the reference every later step reads again: scripts, characters, scenes. Filling it in seriously up front saves far more credits than fixing things later.

• Synopsis: required, the core of the story
• World rules: what holds true in this world and must not be broken
• Story arc: where the story travels from the first episode to the last
• Character relationships: who owes what to whom

Generation runs in the background and can be monitored. If it stops partway there is a continue option that does not start over, and a reset option for when you genuinely want a different direction.
