Artificial intelligence has sparked lively debate within the tabletop RPG community—especially concerning the generation of images and other creative assets. Some gamers worry that AI tools “borrow” from existing works without proper respect for the original creators. At Master of Lore, we understand these concerns and have taken clear steps to ensure our use of AI remains grounded in genuine artistic collaboration and respect for intellectual property.

Building on authorial foundations

The first world we’re launching, Loom – Woven Worlds, is an original setting conceived and written by our in-house game designers. Every creature, culture, and storyline in Loom originates in a carefully developed “bible” that we created before our AI even entered the picture. This foundation is not simply a loose guideline—it’s the creative cornerstone from which the AI generates new scenarios, ensuring we remain faithful to our original vision and maintain authenticity.

Artistry at the core

We’re equally committed to visual integrity. Our principal (human!) artists have breathed life into Loom’s distinctive look. Their drawings of creatures, landscapes, and non-player characters serve as the starting palette for our AI-driven illustrations. Rather than scraping the internet at random for references, our platform uses our artists’ official sketches and style as the basis for generating new images during your adventures. By doing so, we uphold both the unique aesthetic of Loom and the spirit of our original concept arts.

Fair compensation and respect

Because our artists and author are fully involved, they receive compensation and retain rights to their work. By contributing concept art, style guides, and core world-building details, they remain key collaborators rather than sidelined by automated processes. This approach diverges sharply from platforms that generate art with no input or oversight from human creators—here, the AI is merely an extension of the artistic team.

A balanced perspective

We appreciate the passion and caution in the RPG community. Many see AI as a threat to human creators, and in some cases, their concerns are valid. However, at Master of Lore, our AI enhances—rather than replaces—the creative process. Our system ensures consistent storytelling, rapid scenario generation, and immersive visuals, all while staying faithful to Loom’s original themes.

Looking ahead

We believe ethical AI usage can be a force for good in the RPG space. It brings fresh possibilities for solo play, lightning-fast asset creation, and limitless narrative potential. With our model, we not only celebrate the human talent that gave rise to these worlds but also explore innovative ways to expand them.

 

At Master of Lore, we strive to set a new standard: AI that collaborates, rather than competes, with the artistry of dedicated creators. We hope our approach reassures role-players everywhere that this new technology can indeed work in harmony with human imagination..
