Questions

Ellor, the AI game master, writes the prose. The rules engine reads what you do, rolls the dice and keeps the facts; Ellor speaks inside them and cannot change them.

You can, for a while. A chatbot keeps the story only in the conversation, so it forgets once the conversation runs long, it waits for you to move, and it tends to let you win. Here the engine keeps every fact on a record, the town acts without being asked, and real dice decide in the open.

Your words are read, dice decide anything risky, the record is written, Ellor tells it from those facts, the story is read back, and the world moves on. How it works shows it step by step.

It plays like one, on the open rules of the System Reference Document 5.1: ability scores and skills, d20 checks against a difficulty, attacks against armour class, weapons and armour, and experience that levels you up. The game master, Ellor, is an AI, and the rules engine rolls the dice.

Whatever a life in a fantasy world holds: take a quest, fight what is down there, fall in love, plot against a rival, trade, buy a house, or spend a week at the forge. Nothing is forced on you.

Anything risky is rolled, whether or not you name a skill. Easy things just happen as you say them.

Yes, rarely, and it is earned. A death stands, and the story closes on it.

Ducats, kept as a ledger. The purse in the header is the total, and every payment shows under the turn it happened in.

Nothing while it is in early access.

Yes. Ellor is for adults (18 or over). Every character is an adult, and romance and violence are played in full, as the story calls for them.
