Novels
The worldbuildings and settings of fantasy and wuxia novels — organized.
The novel is the medium that allows the freest possible design of worldbuilding and power systems. As a result, magic, martial arts, and sorcery rules are often described in fine detail, or work-original original systems appear that you wouldn't find elsewhere.
MoonWiki summarizes novel works by world fundamentals, power-system structure, and key setting elements. Through this, the structure of long-form novels and series can be grasped at a glance.
Highlights
- Optimized for long-form worldbuildings
- Detailed power systems and rules
- Author-specific setting experiments
- A reference for comparison with other media
