Creating Lores on Notebook.ai
Track every kind of story within your world, from modern anecdotes to ancient legends.
Creating lores on Notebook.ai is easy.
To get started, just click Lores under the "Worldbuilding" header in the site sidebar. You'll be able to see or edit all of your existing lore pages and create new ones at any time. You can also customize your Lore template for all of your pages here.
Search your lores
If you've got a lot of lores, you can quickly get around to the right one with Notebook.ai's full-text search. It searches your entire notebook for anything you wrote about that lore.
You can also filter your lores by tag, whether you've favorited that page, and which universe it's in.
Private by default
Your ideas are valuable. Every lore you create in Notebook.ai is owned by you, completely private by default, and only accessible to you.
But of course, you also have full control over that privacy and can share any lore page you want, however you want, whenever you want.
Lores are a Premium page
Lore notebook pages require an active Premium subscription to create, but users on free plans can view and edit their existing lore pages at any time.
Notebook.ai is your personal worldbuilding notebook; any page you create is yours forever and you'll never lose access to any part of it for any reason — even if you downgrade to a free account in the future.
book Get a head start with a detailed, customizable lore template
You can fill out as little or as much as you'd like on every new lore. You'll see progress indicators every time you edit it to show where you can make progress on and our system will intelligently generate questions for you around the site that will automatically save your answers to the proper place on your lore page.
Templates are also fully customizable across every lore in your notebook.
You can browse the default template for lores here; just click a category to see the questions it starts with.
