Getting Started

What Is Sojen

Learn what Sojen is — a platform for building story worlds and generating comics, codex documents, and other media from structured content.

Setting Up Your World

Three ways to start building your world in Sojen — with AI brainstorming, entity creation, or story-first approaches.

Key Concepts

SOJEN is a story engine. It lets you structure story concepts so that you can easily create media and expand your ideas.

Core Concepts

Entities

Entities are the building blocks of your world — characters, creatures, locations, object, group or artefact that exist in your story universe.

Canon

Canon is all the story content in your world — events, lore, history, backstory, and knowledge organized into a connected knowledge base.

Stories

Stories are the major narratives of your world — structured with chapters that drive plot, sequence events, and serve as source material for media.

Timeline

Timelines organize your canon and story chapters chronologically — define eras, place events, and advance your world forward.

Categories

Categories organize your entities and canon into logical groups — by theme, location, type, or any structure that fits your world.

Relationships and Connections

Link entities, canon, and stories together to build a connected knowledge graph that gives your world depth and consistency.

Features

AI Assistant

Sojen has two AI modes — an Assistant for advice and brainstorming, and a Writer for generating narrative content and documents.

Comic Creation

Transform your stories and canon into full comic books with AI-generated treatments, visual panels, customizable dialogue, and PDF export.

Codex Documents

Generate comprehensive PDF documents from your world content — lore compendiums, player handouts, study guides, and visitor brochures.

Image Generation

Generate AI-powered visuals for your entities and canon entries — character portraits, location art, and event illustrations.

Character Chat

Talk with your character entities in character — test their voice, explore backstory, and develop personalities through conversation.

Discord Integration

Connect your Discord server to Sojen and let community members chat with your world characters in character through assigned channels.
