THE REALITY MACHINE

Everything in the box.

The complete list — every system we've built, for anyone who wants to know exactly what "full tabletop mechanics" means before they download.

The AI Dungeon Master

LIVING NARRATION

  • Claude-powered DM narrates scenes, voices every NPC, and answers freeform actions
  • Multi-arc campaigns with a persistent world bible, story arcs, and session history
  • Everything the party says and does is woven into the storyline as canon
  • Private DM whispers — messages only one player perceives
  • Quick actions (search, hide, investigate) plus a fully freeform prompt box
  • Adjustable verbosity — from terse to novelistic — with live token/cost readout
  • Optional text-to-speech narration with voice, pace, and skip controls

THE DM NEVER TOUCHES THE DICE

  • The AI hands combat to the engine with a single encounter call — then narrates the recap
  • Skill checks roll in YOUR dice box with the correct modifier computed from your sheet
  • Dice math prints in the log: roll, modifier, target number, outcome
  • Story rewards (items, gold, XP) land on real character sheets through structured tools
  • Post-battle loot pool with first-come claim buttons for the whole party

The combat engine

CORE RESOLUTION

  • Deterministic turn-based combat — initiative, actions, bonus actions, reactions, free swaps
  • Advantage / disadvantage from conditions, positioning states, and class features
  • Automatic saving throws with class save proficiencies and feature bonuses
  • Damage typing with resistance, vulnerability, and immunity per creature
  • Critical hits (double dice), expanded crit ranges, adamantine crit negation
  • Concentration checks, temp HP, surprise rounds, flee attempts
  • Death and dying: death saves at zero HP, stabilization, revival windows

CONDITIONS & STATES

  • Frightened, paralyzed, stunned, restrained, blinded, charmed, asleep, invisible, banished, confused, turned
  • Save-to-end each turn where the rules call for it; auto-fail rules for STR/DEX saves
  • Buffs and wards as real states: Bless, Haste, Faerie Fire, Shield, Mage Armor, Foresight…
  • Persistent area effects that re-fire each round (Wall of Fire, Call Lightning, Insect Plague)
  • Summons fight as real allied combatants with their own turns

REACTIONS & INTERRUPTS

  • Counterspell window against enemy casters — three seconds to tear the spell apart
  • Reactive Bardic Inspiration when an ally's roll fails by the die or less
  • Stone's Endurance, Shadowy Dodge, Retaliation, Misty Escape, Thought Shield reflect
  • Opportunity-style class riders resolved engine-side with printed math

WEAPONS & PROFICIENCY

  • Weapon Mastery (2024): Cleave, Nick, Graze, Sap, Vex, Push, Slow, Topple
  • Two-weapon fighting with a real two-hand economy — light weapons, off-hand rules, shield conflicts
  • Finesse, ranged, and versatile weapon math from the SRD weapons table
  • Class weapon proficiency enforced — no proficiency bonus on untrained steel
  • Armor training enforced — untrained armor means disadvantage and no spellcasting

All twelve classes — mechanically real

Every class ships with its subclasses, resource pools, and signature systems working in the engine — not as flavor text.

Spellcasting — 2024 rules fidelity

CASTING

  • Short-rest and long-rest recovery, Arcane Recovery, Pact Magic refresh

SPELLS THAT DO THINGS

  • Attack-roll spells with two-stage to-hit → damage; save spells with half-or-negate

Multiplayer & privacy

PEER-TO-PEER PLAY

  • One player funds the AI DM; everyone else plays free; take turns across sessions
  • Per-seat combat control — each player acts on their own machine on their turn
  • In-character and IRL chat as separate feeds, so table talk never muddies the story
  • Crash-safe rejoin — drop out, come back, the story waits

SECURITY BY DESIGN

  • Campaign channels encrypted under keys derived from a secret that never touches a server unencrypted
  • Invites and notifications pair-encrypted to the recipient
  • Friending pinned to write-once public keys
  • Your local database encrypted at rest under an OS-protected key
  • Your API key stays on your machine — requests go straight to Anthropic

See it for yourself.
