In the traditional world of tabletop RPGs, the "Magic" happens in the space between the players' imagination and the Game Master’s narration. At Master of Lore, that bridge is built by SAGE (Storytelling Agentic Gaming Engine), our cutting-edge AI Game Master.
Unlike a static video game, Master of Lore doesn’t give you a list of pre-written dialogue options. It gives you a world. But because the Lore Master reacts to your specific inputs, the quality of your adventure often depends on the quality of your "prompts."
If you want to move beyond basic interactions and dive into a truly cinematic experience, here is how to master the art of the prompt.
The AI Lore Master is designed to handle consistency, rules, and NPC reactions, but it thrives on detail. Instead of typing "I attack the guard," try describing how you attack.
Why it works: Detailed prompts give SAGE more context to work with. If you mention the "dusty tapestries," the AI might describe the cough-inducing cloud of dust or a hidden lever revealed behind the fabric.
Master of Lore uses advanced AI to generate visuals, ambient music, and sound effects to match the mood. You can trigger better environmental responses by using sensory language in your prompts.
When entering the mist-choked docks of Innsmouth in Dreams of the Old Ones, don't just say you walk down the street. Mention the smell of salt and rotting fish, or the rhythmic sound of your boots on the wet cobblestones. The SAGE engine will pick up on these cues to maintain a high level of atmospheric tension.
One of the most powerful features of the Lore Master is its ability to roleplay NPCs with distinct voices and personalities. You don’t have to summarize your speech; you can speak directly to them.
The AI will recognize the tone (intimidation, bribery, or charm) and calculate the Captain’s reaction based on the world’s internal logic and persistence.
Improvisational acting uses a technique called "Yes, And..." where you accept what a partner says and add to it. You can do the same with the Lore Master. If the AI describes a "suspicious-looking merchant in the corner of the tavern," don't ignore him. Engage with that detail.
By acknowledging the elements the AI introduces, you create a feedback loop that makes the world feel alive and reactive.
In worlds like Loom or Skull Island, the stakes are high. Master of Lore incorporates dice rolls and RPG mechanics to determine the outcome of risky actions.
Don't always take the "safe" prompt. Sometimes, prompting a daring, high-risk maneuver—like “I attempt to leap from the crumbling clock tower onto the back of the flying beast”—leads to the most memorable narrative twists, whether you succeed or fail. Remember: SAGE is built to ensure that even a "failure" moves the story forward in an interesting way.
You are the hero of your own adventure. If you want to slow down and explore the lore of a library in Kesi, take your time with descriptive, inquisitive prompts. If you want a fast-paced chase through the streets of London with Sherlock Holmes, keep your prompts short, punchy, and action-oriented. The AI Lore Master will mirror your energy.
Whether you are weaving fate in the chaotic regions of Loom or surviving the prehistoric terrors of Skull Island, your words are the catalyst for the adventure.
