Answers grounded in your campaign
Ask about people, places, factions, quests, clues, rules, or character abilities and receive a direct answer with supporting sources.
Your campaign, made conversational
More play. Less searching.
Joe's Real Lore™ helps players and Game Masters use the knowledge already present in their Foundry world while keeping answers connected to the original material.
See where answers came from
Review the relevant source material, read the complete entry, and return to the original item in Foundry when you want more context.
Create in-character dialogue
Choose a synchronized player character or NPC, then shape an original response with tone, intensity, fantasy flavor, and length controls.
Summarize a play session
Create a recap from recorded Foundry Chat for the dates and level of detail you choose, then share the finished summary back to the table.
Keep the companion close
Use the browser-side companion to ask questions, synchronize your world, review sources, and send finished dialogue to chat.
Optional outside guidance
When you choose, Joe's Real Lore™ can also look for helpful public guidance while keeping campaign material separate from that optional search.
