V1.8.0: the fallen are hidden, and allies can revive the dead

- A dead character, or a monster or NPC at 0 HP, is out of the fight: the
  server no longer sends it to players, target marks included, and it has
  no turn. Healing or reviving brings it straight back.
- The DM's screen leaves the fallen out too until "Show dead" is ticked,
  which lists them in a group of their own, marked hidden.
- Players see dead characters by name in a Fallen box. The player whose
  character is on turn in a battle gets "Try revive" there if that
  character is on their feet and knows a spell that revives, at a level
  they can cast. The dead come back at 1 HP.
- Spells have a "Revives" tick in the campaign's spell list. Revivify and
  Raise Dead have it, in the library and in existing campaigns.
- A dead character cannot be added to an encounter until revived.
- All packages at version 1.8.0.

-from (`GAME_RULES_REFERENCE.md` is the authoritative rules/math reference;
-`ROLL_YOUR_CHARACTER.md` is the character-builder flow spec).
+## How it works
+
+`/docs` describes the app as it currently behaves, one subject per file:
+
+| Document | Covers |
+|---|---|
+| `docs/CHARACTERS.md` | Building a character, every number on the sheet, levels, money, permissions |
+| `docs/WEAPONS.md` | The weapon pool, weapon levels and how damage grows |
+| `docs/SPELLS.md` | The spell list, who can use which spells, the spell library |
+| `docs/ITEMS.md` | The item pool and character inventory |
+| `docs/ENCOUNTERS.md` | Battles and NPC quests, turns, rewards, what players see |
+| `docs/MONSTERS.md` | The monster list and built-in bestiary |
+| `docs/NPCS.md` | Non-player characters |
+
+`CLAUDE_BUILD_PROMPT.md`, `docs/GAME_RULES_REFERENCE.md` and
+`docs/ROLL_YOUR_CHARACTER.md` are the original specifications the first
+version was built from. The app has since moved on in places (gear levels,
+the builder's story steps, picking a motivation); the documents above are the
+current behaviour.

+Open the frontend URL, register an account (or log in with the seeded admin
+account — see the seed script's console output for credentials and invite
 code), and start playing.
 
+The seed only adds: it never touches an existing account or campaign, so it is
+safe to run on a server with real data. It skips the campaign if the admin
+already has an active "Aldenfell"; archive or delete that one in the app
+(Campaign Settings) and run it again for a fresh copy. `SEED_ADMIN_EMAIL`,
+`SEED_ADMIN_PASSWORD` and `SEED_ADMIN_NAME` set the account it creates.
+`npx prisma db seed -- --reset` wipes every user and campaign first.
+
+A second campaign, Hollowcrown: The Rift Between Worlds, has its own seed and
+is not part of the default one. It follows the same rules (it only adds, and
+skips if the admin already has an active Hollowcrown):
+
+```bash
+cd backend
+npm run seed:hollowcrown
+```
+
+On a server, after pulling a new version, run `npm run deploy` in `backend`
+and then restart the backend. It applies new migrations **and** regenerates
+the Prisma client; without the second half the server keeps running with the
+old data model and pages that use anything new fail to load (for example
+"Could not load this encounter"). Change your password from the account page
+(click your name in the top bar).

+  `Welcome to Aldenfell — Player Primer
+
+You’re a stranger arriving in Highcrown, the capital, right as the yearly Founding Fair kicks off — a good excuse for adventurers from every corner of the kingdom to cross paths in one place.
+
+The setting: Aldenfell is a kingdom of knightly orders, old noble houses, and a royal court that’s held things together for generations. To the west, the ancient Greywood forest keeps its own secrets and its own guardians. To the north and east, the mountains of the Spine are home to giant clans and dragons who are neighbors and political players, not just monsters to slay. The Salt Coast to the south is full of independent-minded fishing towns and rumors of things in the water. A world built for classic adventure — quests, courts, monsters, treasure — with real weight behind the choices you make.
+
+A note on tone: most of this campaign plays like a bright, exciting fantasy adventure. Every so often, especially if you go looking underground, it gets genuinely unsettling. You’ll always get a clear signal before things turn scary, so lean in when it happens.
+
+Building your character: we’ll roll to discover your species and class, then roll your ability scores. Knights, wandering scholars, forest-raised rangers, self-taught spellcasters — everything has a place here.`,
+];
+
+const dmNotes = [
+  `Overview & Tone
+
+Aldenfell looks whole from the road and is rotting from underneath. Knights ride under bright banners, dragons nest in the high peaks, the court still feasts — but something old and hungry is stirring beneath the capital, and every faction is maneuvering around that fact instead of dealing with it. The party arrives as the cracks start showing.
+
+Tone pillars (in priority order):
+• Heroic adventure first — the classic fantasy toybox, played straight and fun.
+• Real consequences — choices stick; burned bridges stay burned; stalling on the central threat visibly worsens the world. Not punishing, just earned.
+• Horror as a spice — surface world plays bright; horror spikes in telegraphed places (the Hollow Below). Always signal before a scene turns scary.
+
+Tone dial (out of 5): Heroism 5 · Intrigue 3 · Combat 4 · Horror 3 (5 in the Underworld) · Comedy 2.
+
+Regions: Highcrown (capital, home base) · The Greywood (old forest, fey, Wardens) · The Spine (dragons & giants) · The Salt Coast (smuggling, sea monsters) · The Bramble Marches (contested border) · The Hollow Below (underneath everything).`,
+
+  `The Central Conflict — Campaign Clock
+
+Something sealed beneath the capital centuries ago — the Hollow King — is waking. It doesn’t attack at first; it corrupts. Use this as a VISIBLE clock; it advances only between major story beats.
+
+Stage 1 — Omens: livestock/crops fail near old shrines; shared identical nightmares in Highcrown; minor nobles acting strangely loyal to no one. (Session One sits here.)
+Stage 2 — Cracks: the boundary thins in mappable places; monsters surface near cracks; a Bramble Marches faction goes quiet; the corrupted noble house is revealed.
+Stage 3 — Open wound: a crack becomes a breach; a town/district is lost or quarantined; the crown publicly acknowledges it and fractures; factions jockey for power.
+Stage 4 — The Hollow King wakes: endgame, shaped by what the party did in stages 1–3.
+
+Real consequences: an ally lost in stage 2 stays lost; a faction alienated in stage 1 won’t help in stage 3; a region left to fall stays changed.
+
+Branch points to track: faction(s) sided with · named NPCs alive/allied/dead/estranged · regions with lasting damage · how much the public knows by Act 3.`,
+
+  `Factions
+
+• The Crown — King Aldric Veyrmont, aging, cornered, in denial. Heir Princess Isolde Veyrmont: capable, well-liked, quietly building her own circle — a strong ally for the party.
+• Order of the Grey Dawn — premier knightly order sworn to the crown. Split between traditionalists and a faction that thinks the court is hiding something. “You’re recruited” is a clean session-one hook.
+• The Merchant Concord — trade coalition running Highcrown’s economy. Neutral, pragmatic, pays for side quests, quick to abandon anyone bad for business.
+• Wardens of the Greywood — rangers/druids who answer to no crown. Suspicious, not hostile; first to notice the cracks near the old shrines.
+• Spine Clans & dragon eyries — several giant clans and named dragons treating Aldenfell as a neighboring power. “Talk your way out of this” and “earn an ally” scenes.
+• A corrupted noble house — pick a minor house NOW; don’t reveal until Stage 2. Let their behavior be subtly off from session one.`,
+
+  `Notable NPCs
+
+• King Aldric Veyrmont — ruler. Tired, proud, in denial. Pays well for quiet problem-solving; reacts badly to blunt truth.
+• Princess Isolde Veyrmont — heir. Sharp, pragmatic. Best long-term ally; recruits capable outsiders on purpose.
+• Ser Kavan Thorne — Grey Dawn knight-commander. Rigid, honorable, loyal to a fault. Recruits the party; struggles when evidence points at the crown.
+• Mireille Costa — Merchant Concord rep. Charming, transactional, always has a job.
+• Ashwen — Warden of the Greywood. Terse, watchful. First to notice the shrines; a slow-burn ally.
+• Threndir Ashclaw — old, weary copper dragon of the Spine. Blunt, wants the kingdom to survive. Talks before fighting.
+• Korgath Stonejaw — giant clan chieftain. Honor-bound, no patience for politics. Trials, contests, bargains.
+• Vessa Hollow — a voice, not yet a face. Calm, almost kind, wrong. Use in dreams/omens long before she appears.
+• Corporal Ressa Vane — Grey Dawn warden escort (E9C); reports everything back to Grey Dawn Hall.
+• The bell-ringer — rescued in Session One; returns in The Bell-Ringer’s Debt.`,
+
+  `DM SECRETS & TWISTS (eyes only)
+
+• What the Hollow King is: the accumulated, imprisoned will of everyone Highcrown’s founders sacrificed to secure their claim to the land. The seal is a suppression of many, not a prison for one. The resolution is about what the party does with that truth (bury it, expose it, make amends) — not just a sword fight.
+• Vessa Hollow: one of the sacrificed, the Hollow King’s sympathetic “face.” She believes waking the rest is justice. Unsettling, never mustache-twirling. Negotiating with her is a legitimate outcome.
+• The corrupted noble house: choose whichever minor house you introduced most casually in Act 1. Their head bargained with Vessa years ago for prosperity and believes they’re managing the influence rather than being used.
+• Ser Kavan Thorne: the Grey Dawn’s founding is tied to the original sacrifice. Thorne doesn’t know. Whether/how the party tells him is theirs to choose.
+• Princess Isolde: already suspects something is deeply wrong; most likely to believe the party early.`,
+
+  `Session One — The Bell That Wasn’t Ringing
+
+Setup: all PCs are in Highcrown for the Founding Fair. Build characters at the table (Roll-Your-Character System) — can be session one’s first half.
+
+Hook: the old chapel bell, which has rung every hour for as long as anyone remembers, stops. A city guard (or Ser Kavan Thorne) gathers volunteers to check the chapel.
+
+What they find: no break-in. The bell rope is neatly cut and left coiled. The bell-ringer is missing, not dead. A line of unfamiliar script is scratched inside the bell (Hollow King iconography). A frightened local saw “a woman who wasn’t blinking.” The trail leads to the Sunken Vaults beneath the chapel.
+
+Light dungeon crawl: 2–4 easy/medium encounters (feral guard dog, low-level undead) — nothing horror-register yet. The bell-ringer is found alive but shaken, having seen “someone who looked like his neighbor, except wrong.”
+
+Ending: the bell rings again, the fair goes on, nothing is solved. They leave with a taste of combat, one unanswered mystery, and at least one NPC connection.`,
+
+  `Act 1: Omens — E1–E8
+
+E1 Founding Fair (Lantern Market): character creation, no combat → E2.
+E2 The Bell That Wasn’t Ringing (Founding Chapel): DC 13 Investigation finds the cut rope & script; DC 12 Persuasion/Insight gets the “woman who wasn’t blinking.”
+ • E2A investigate immediately: full clues; skip Vault Room 1.
+ • E2B distracted first: guard missed the script; DC 13 Investigation to find it; start Room 1.
+ • E2C talk to the crowd first: 3 witness accounts, no script lead; E10 Insight later at advantage.
+E3 The Sunken Vaults: run Vault Rooms 1–6; bell-ringer found in Room 5 → E4.
+E4 Aftermath & Faction Hooks (all open doors, can run in parallel):
+ • E4A Grey Dawn recruitment → Grey Dawn ending track.
+ • E4B Concord job board → The Smugglers’ Tithe.
+ • E4C Warden contact → The Warden’s Silence.
+ • E4D Caravan to the Spine → Trial of Stone → Spine Clans track.
+ • E4E Investigate independently (DC 15 Investigation) → Independent track.
+E5 Omens Montage: 2–3 short scenes across sessions (shrine livestock, shared nightmares — DC 12 Insight, the odd noble).
+E6 The Bell-Ringer’s Debt (optional side quest).
+E7 A Closer Look: investigating the noble house hits dead ends — unless E2C, then DC 13 Insight catches a servant who flinched.
+E8 Turning the Page: after 2+ E4 threads and one E5 omen, advance clock to Stage 2 → E9.`,
+
+  `Act 2: Cracks — E9–E13
+
+E9 First Descent (The Root, Weeping Passage). Signal the tone shift. DC 14 Survival notices the dripping is a Hollowed’s footsteps.
+ • E9A retreat: keep what they learned, full rest before re-entry.
+ • E9B push through alone: Root Rooms 1–4; Weeping Passage marking matches the bell script.
+ • E9C (took E4A): Corporal Ressa Vane escorts, skips to Room 2 — but reports back (matters at E10B, E15).
+ • E9D (won Trial of Stone): Spine guide enters via Room 4; hears the legend of “the sleeper under the hollow crown”; DC 13 Survival or wake the Root Stalker at the entrance.
+E10 The House Unmasked (Highcrown). Ledger: every shrine “donation” falls three days after a livestock death.
+ • E10A confront directly: DC 16 Persuasion/Intimidation with proof, DC 20 without.
+ • E10B report to crown/Isolde/Kavan: sets up Act 3 politics; if E9C, Kavan already suspected (trust bump).
+ • E10C (E2C + servant thread): private DC 13 check at advantage → confession + sealed letter; the house never learns it’s suspected. Best route into Act 3.
+E11 Silence on the Border (Greyford Keep): gate open, no bodies. DC 13 Perception: drag marks — the defenders left. Smugglers’ Tithe outcome decides rescue vs recovery. E11C (Spine allied): clans already there, share Root Stalker migration intel. Treasure: 2d6×10 gp trade goods + masterwork weapon.
+E12 A Line Thins: a Root Stalker surfaces near a location the party didn’t secure. DC 15 Arcana/Religion: deliberate erosion from below. Key item: root-fiber scrap (needed for E14/E18).
+E13 The Clock Turns → Stage 3.`,
+
+  `Act 3: Open Wound — E14–E20
+
+E14 The Break: the E12 crack becomes a breach; 2–4 Hollowed pour out. DC 15 Arcana: shaped for something to come through.
+ • E14A seal it (DC 17 Arcana or chapel ritual): closes, but a debt comes due at E17.
+ • E14B evacuate instead: no deaths, but the breach stays open, worsening omens until E18.
+ Key item: seal-stone fragment (needed at E19).
+E15 The House Falls (or Doesn’t):
+ • E15A (after E10A): house prepared — DC 18 to break the cover story, or fight guards + a Hollowed retainer.
+ • E15B (after E10B): public tribunal — DC 16 Persuasion/Insight for exile over execution.
+ • E15C (after E10C): strike the cult infrastructure directly → E15C-1 capture a cult lieutenant who reveals the Hollow Court’s surface entrance.
+E16 What the Marches Cost (Greyford Keep):
+ • E16A reinforced (E11C): the keep holds; Spine standing rises.
+ • E16B under-supplied: the keep falls; a named refugee NPC dies unless DC 16 Athletics/Survival rescue.
+E17 The Debt Comes Due: pay off E14A, unresolved side quests, or ignored omens — or a quiet breather.
+E18 Into the Hollow Court: Court Rooms 1–3. E18A standard entry via the Root’s Descent; E18B (lieutenant captured) skip to Room 2.
+E19 Vessa’s Seat (Court Room 4): the party learns the Hollow King’s true nature from Vessa. Root-fiber + seal-stone (DC 15 Arcana, auto with a Religion-proficient caster) → advantage on the first check at E22.
+E20 The Clock Turns Again → Stage 4.`,
+
+  `Act 4: The Hollow King Wakes — E21–E27
+
+E21 Rally Point (Highcrown or Greyford): who shows up depends on the branch list.
+ • E21A Grey Dawn track: Kavan + wardens, by-the-book.
+ • E21B Spine Clans track: war-band; advantage on the first Survival check at E22.
+ • E21C Independent: no reinforcements; every choice stays theirs.

+E22 The Seal Chamber (Court Room 5) — the key branch:
+ • E22A reinforce (DC 18 Arcana/Religion): Sealed Ending; the seal-stone becomes a unique magic item.
+ • E22B break it deliberately: E23 on the party’s terms — the only path to true victory.
+ • E22C do nothing: seal fails anyway; E24–E25 are harder.
+E23 The Waking Begins (Court Room 6): E22B = no surprise, full resources; E22C = apply one escalation stage first.
+E24 What the Court Remembers: vision encounter; DC 14 Insight recognizes manipulation vs truth.
+E25 The Last Approach: gauntlet of 2–3 horror-register creatures; allied faction fights alongside.
+E26 The Hollow King: build the stat block from DM Secrets, scaled to party. Grey Dawn = disciplined line; Spine Clans = terrain & ritual (collapse passages, the Memory Pool); Independent = hardest, entirely theirs.
+E27 Endings: Sealed (bought time) · Grey Dawn (institution absorbs the heroes) · Spine Clans (credit finally given) · Independent (their own story). Close back at the Lantern Market, a year later.`,
+
+  `Side Quest — The Smugglers’ Tithe
+Salt Coast (Tidewatch, Smuggler’s Cove) · Lv 1–3 · Highcrown Cutthroats, Bandit Captain
+
+Hook: Mireille Costa hires the party to learn why a cut of Tidewatch’s smuggled goods is vanishing before reaching buyers.
+Truth: a Bandit Captain is extorting the smugglers and funneling the “tithe” to arm one side of the Bramble Marches conflict.
+Beats: investigate Tidewatch (smugglers distrust outsiders) → track a shipment to Smuggler’s Cove → confront the crew (fight, negotiate, or both).
+Outcomes: end it quietly (Mireille pays well) or expose where the tithe was headed (pulls the Marches plot forward). Decides whether Greyford is supplied at E11/E16.`,
+
+  `Side Quest — The Warden’s Silence
+The Greywood (Warden’s Lodge, an Old Shrine) · Lv 1–2 · Greywood Direwolves, one Hollowed
+
+Hook: Ashwen asks the party to check on a Warden who stopped reporting in from a shrine site.
+Truth: the Warden was Hollowed after investigating the shrine’s crack alone — the party’s first, sympathetic Hollowed.
+Beats: track the Warden → direwolf pack on the way (agitated, not evil) → the Hollowed Warden at the shrine; DC 15 Insight reveals the wrongness.
+Outcomes: fight, or restrain and bring back to Ashwen (hard questions), or it escapes to report back. Either way Ashwen is convinced something is deeply wrong.`,
+
+  `Side Quest — Trial of Stone
+The Spine (Stonejaw Hold) · Lv 2–4 · Korgath Stonejaw’s Hill Giants
+
+Hook: the party needs Korgath’s clan as an ally; he offers a trial instead of agreement.
+Truth: nothing sinister — a genuine test of character.
+Trials (per PC or shared): non-lethal wrestling with a giant; a test of honesty; proving their word is good (retrieve something, deliver a message honestly).
+Beats: arrive → formal challenge → trial → feast on success.
+Outcomes: success = standing alliance (Spine Clans track). Failure isn’t fatal — Korgath offers a second, harder trial.`,
+
+  `Side Quest — The Bell-Ringer’s Debt
+Highcrown · Lv 1–2 · Highcrown Cutthroats · Follows Session One
+
+Hook: the rescued bell-ringer owes a Highcrown underworld lender; interest is compounding fast.
+Truth: the lender operates under the corrupted noble house’s protection (not knowable yet).
+Beats: hear him out → track the collectors → pay the debt, intimidate the lender, or dig into who backs the lender (harder, more rewarding).
+Outcomes: a loyal low-key ally either way. Digging plants a connect-the-dots clue toward the corrupted house before Act 2.`,
+
+  `Side Quest — Refugees of the Marches
+Bramble Marches (Greyford Keep, the Sorrow Camp) · Lv 2–4 · Cutthroats or a Bandit Captain · The clearest moral-choice quest
+
+Hook: the Sorrow Camp is overwhelmed and preyed on by aid-skimmers; Greyford’s commander wants the camp “moved along.”
+Truth: no clean villain — the commander isn’t wrong about the strategic liability; the refugees have nowhere else to go.
+Beats: tension between camp and garrison → find who’s skimming aid → confront them → broker (or fail to broker) an arrangement.
+Outcomes: genuinely branching — lasting goodwill, or a hardened Marches conflict. Introduce a named refugee NPC here (at risk at E16B).`,
+
+  `Side Quest — What the Tide Brought In
+Salt Coast (Tidewatch) · Lv 2–3 · Reef Terror (reskinned Spine Wyvern) · Horror-lite
+
+Hook: a fishing boat washes up empty — sails intact, catch in the hold, crew gone.
+Truth: NOT connected to the Hollow King (a deliberate palate-cleanser). A territorial sea creature drags fishers under near a reef.
+Beats: DC 13 Investigation finds claw marks, not violence → spooked fishers give the reef’s location → confront at sea or lure to shallows.
+Outcomes: safe fishing reopens and real goodwill in Tidewatch — an uncomplicated “you helped real people” win.`,
+
+  `Dungeon — Sunken Vaults (Layer 1)
+
+1. The Collapsed Stair (entry) — spiral stair, rusted gate on one hinge. No monster. DC 12 Perception: fresh footprints (the bell-ringer’s). → Room 2.
+2. The Old Crypt Hall — hub; sealed niches, some open. DC 13 Investigation: just old theft. Good spot for a feral dog or low undead. Treasure: silver locket 15 gp (DC 12). → 3, 4, stair to 6.
+3. Smugglers’ Cache — crates with an unknown merchant sigil. DC 14 Investigation ties it to a lender linked to the corrupted house. Treasure: ~40 gp trade goods + ledger page with partial name. Dead end.
+4. The Restless Ossuary — 1–2 skeletons rise halfway through (ordinary dead). DC 12 Religion: deconsecration would settle them. Treasure: offering box (DC 13) with 25 gp. Dead end.
+5. The Bell-Ringer’s Refuge — bedroll, cold lantern. The bell-ringer is found here in E3; otherwise a squatter’s camp. Branch off Room 2 or 6.
+6. The Descent — ragged hole, wrong cold air. Transition to the Root; signal the tone shift. The party can always turn back. → Root Room 1.`,
+
+  `Dungeon — The Root (Layer 2)
+
+1. The Threshold — almost-regular dripping. Nothing attacks. DC 15 Perception: the rhythm changes when someone speaks. Retreat always safe. → 2.
+2. The Weeping Passage — walls “weep.” E9B: marking matches the bell script (DC 16 Arcana/Religion). Maybe one Bellcrawler using Stillness (DC 17 Perception). → 3 (east), 4 (south).
+3. Hollowed Nest — tidy cavern, bedrolls. 1–2 Hollowed; DC 15 Insight before combat. Maybe a named missing person. Treasure: ~20 gp effects + (DC 14) half-burned letter hinting at the corrupted house. → 2, 5.
+4. Root Stalker’s Warren — moving roots. Root Stalker lair; DC 14 Perception or its first attack has advantage. Treasure: 60 gp + masterwork dagger (50 gp). Dead end (optional secret passage to 6).
+5. The Drowned Shrine — pre-kingdom altar in black water. DC 16 History/Religion: older than Aldenfell. Treasure: silver relic 75 gp (DC 13 Athletics/Investigation). → 2, crawl to 6.
+6. Bellcrawler Gallery — ledges over a drop; bell-toll lure. 2–3 Bellcrawlers; DC 15 Perception; DC 13 Dex or fall 2d6. Treasure: 90 gp + potion of healing. → 2, 7.
+7. The Descent to the Hollow Court — a stair too regular to exist. Off-limits before Act 4; let them see it and turn back. → Court Room 1.`,
+
+  `Dungeon — The Hollow Court (Layer 3)
+
+1. The Bent Stair — the stair disagrees with itself. DC 15 Wis save or lose track of time (optionally lose 10 minutes). No monster. → 2.
+2. The Memory Pool — each PC sees a personal vision tied to their backstory/choices (payoff for the branch list). No damage; can choose not to look. DC 17 Insight to understand it. → 3.
+3. The Court of Whispers — overlapping voices; Vessa may speak plainly here. DC 16 Insight: she believes what she says. Any combat uses Hollowed guardians, not Vessa. → 4.
+4. Vessa’s Seat — a single worn stone seat. Meet or confront Vessa; strong candidate for a negotiated outcome. → 5.
+5. The Seal Chamber — a wound stitched shut, coming undone. DC 18 Arcana/Religion reveals the seal is a suppression of many. Optional DC 14 Wis saves vs disorientation. Treasure: the campaign’s single most significant magic item. → 6.
+6. The Waking — the end of the dungeon. Don’t decide its contents until Act 3 is complete.`,
+
+  `DM Tables — Skill DCs, Treasure, Downtime
+
+DCs: Very Easy 5 · Easy 10 · Medium 15 · Hard 20 · Very Hard 25 · Nearly Impossible 30.

+  `DM Tables — Rumors
+
+Act 1 (d8): 1 “The bell stopped once before, generations back.” (Misleading — never happened) · 2 “Old man Farrow’s cows went dry past the shrine road.” (True) · 3 “Princess Isolde’s been asking sharp questions of the temple scholars.” (True) · 4 “Ser Kavan turned away a recruit for asking about the crown.” (False) · 5 “There’s gold in the old crypts under the city.” (Misleading — modest and dangerous) · 6 “A noble house has been paying off debts all over the city.” (True — the corrupted house) · 7 “The Wardens haven’t been seen at the eastern shrine in weeks.” (True) · 8 “Something’s wrong with the water past Tidewatch.” (True — What the Tide Brought In)

+

+
+Highcrown: 1 Cutthroat pickpocket (DC 13 Perception) · 2 Grey Dawn patrol · 3 Concord merchant with a small job · 4 street preacher of omens (free rumor) · 5 quiet day · 6 a noble retinue — DC 12 Insight notices something off if it’s the corrupted house.
+The Greywood: 1 1d3 Greywood Direwolves · 2 Warden patrol · 3 unmarked old shrine · 4 harmless fey mischief · 5 traveler in trouble · 6 quiet — chance for a long rest.

+// Default spell library — a broad SRD-style spell list (cantrips through 5th
+// level) spanning every spellcasting class, offered to any campaign so a DM
+// isn't hand-typing spells from scratch. Shape matches the `Spell` Prisma
+// model minus `id`/`campaignId`, plus a stable `key` for "add to campaign"
+// lookups and a `classes` tag array the library picker can filter by.
+//
+// `level` is the classic spell level, which in this app is also the character
+// level needed to use the spell. `damageDice` is a default for spells that
+// deal damage — the dice at the spell's own level, per the SRD (per ray for
+// Scorching Ray, total for Magic Missile's three darts). Spells that only
+// heal, protect or control have none. A DM can change either after adding.

+
+---
+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- An encounter is one **scene** the DM runs: a fight, or a meeting with
+  people who want something.
+- Encounters belong to a campaign and are listed on the campaign page. The DM
+  creates them and sees all of them.
+- A player only sees an encounter that **one of their own characters is in**.
+  Until the DM adds their character it is not in their list and its page will
+  not open, so scenes the DM is still preparing stay hidden, name included.
+  Taking their character out hides it again.
+- The encounter page updates live for everyone who has it open.
+- The DM runs everything. Players watch, and see less than the DM does.
+
+## 2. Battle or quest
+
+Every encounter has a mode, chosen when it is created and switchable at any
+time from the top of the page.
+
+| | Battle | NPC quest |
+|---|---|---|
+| For | A fight | A scene built around people and an objective |
+| Layout | Everyone in one list, in initiative order | Three groups: "People you meet", "The party", "Creatures" |
+| Rounds and turns | Yes | No |
+| Initiative | The d20 roll, typed in per combatant; the bonus is added | The same; each group lists highest first |
+| Start button | Begin Battle | Begin Quest |
+| End button | End Battle | Complete Quest |
+
+Everything else (hit points, conditions, rewards, the scene description, DM
+notes) works the same in both.
+
+## 3. Status
+
+| Status | Meaning | How to get there |
+|---|---|---|
+| Planning | Being set up | Every new encounter starts here |
+| In progress | Being played | Begin Battle / Begin Quest, or Reopen |
+| Complete | Finished | End Battle / Complete Quest |
+
+Status is a label. Nothing is locked when an encounter is complete: the DM
+can still change HP, add people and award rewards. Encounters cannot be
+renamed from the screen.
+
+### Location
+
+The DM can give an encounter a location from the campaign's list, with the
+picker at the top of the page. While the encounter is **in progress** its
+characters are at that location: beginning it, changing its location, or
+adding a character to it moves them there. Each place a character is moved to
+(this way or by the DM on the sheet) is remembered, and a player can see only
+the locations one of their own characters has been to — on the campaign page
+under "Places You've Been", and on the encounter itself. Archiving or deleting
+the encounter does not take a visited place away again.
+
+### Order, archive and delete
+
+**Order.** The campaign page lists encounters in the **campaign order**, which
+the DM arranges with the ▲ and ▼ buttons and everyone sees. A new encounter
+goes to the top. The "Sort by" menu re-sorts the list by name, status, type or
+date instead; that choice is remembered per browser and changes nothing for
+anyone else. ▲ and ▼ only show while sorting by campaign order.
+
+**Archive.** "Archive" (on the list or the encounter page) puts an encounter
+away without changing it. It moves to the DM's "Archived" section and
+disappears from the players' list; a player whose character is in it can still
+open its page from a bookmark. "Restore" puts it back on the list.
+
+**Delete.** "Delete" (on the encounter page, or on an archived encounter in
+the list) removes the scene, who was in it and its reward list, after a
+confirmation. There is no undo. Rewards already handed out stay with the
+characters, and characters keep their current HP.
+
+## 4. The scene and DM notes
+
+| Box | For | Who sees it |
+|---|---|---|
+| The Scene / Quest | Describing the battlefield, or what is being asked of the party | Everyone |
+| DM Notes | Tactics, secrets, what happens if the party fails | **DM only** |
+
+Both save when the DM clicks out of the box.
+
+## 5. Who is in the scene
+
+The DM adds people from the "Add to the scene" panel.
+
+| Kind | Comes from | Can be added more than once |
+|---|---|---|
+| Character | The campaign's finished characters, except dead ones | No |
+| Monster | The campaign's monster list ([MONSTERS.md](MONSTERS.md)) | Yes |
+| NPC | The campaign's NPC list ([NPCS.md](NPCS.md)) | No |
+
+Each has a card. The card's left edge is coloured by kind, and it shows:
+
+- **Characters:** level, species and class; HP, AC, speed, initiative bonus,
+  passive perception, proficiency bonus and spell save DC. Under "details":
+  ability scores, saves, the weapons and spells the character can use (with
+  attack and damage numbers), and special abilities. The name links to the
+  character sheet.
+- **Monsters:** for the DM, AC, speed, attack and damage, and under "details"
+  ability scores, trait and notes.
+- **NPCs:** role, attitude and description; for the DM also AC, attack,
+  damage and DM notes.
+
+Details start open for the DM and closed for players. Weapons and spells
+above a character's level are left out, because the character cannot use
+them.
+
+A **dead character cannot be added** to any encounter: they are left out of
+the list to pick from and the server refuses them, until they are revived. A
+character who dies stays in the encounters they were already in.
+
+The DM removes someone with "Remove" on their card. Removing whoever is on
+turn passes the turn to the next combatant.
+
+## 6. Hit points
+
+The DM types an amount and clicks Damage or Heal on a card.
+
+| Combatant | Where the HP lives |
+|---|---|
+| Character | On the **character sheet**. The encounter shows the sheet's HP and changes it directly, so the two always agree. Max HP comes from the sheet. |
+| Monster | In the encounter, per copy. Starts at the monster's max. |
+| NPC | In the encounter. An NPC with no HP set has no health bar. |
+
+- HP always stays between 0 and max.
+- **What players see of it.** A character's HP is always shown in numbers. For
+  monsters and NPCs it depends on the campaign setting "Players see the exact
+  hit points of monsters and NPCs": on (the default) shows the numbers, off
+  shows only the health bar. The DM always sees the numbers.
+- At 0 HP a monster or NPC is **out of the fight**: see "The fallen" below.
+- A **character** at 0 HP is **Dying** instead, and its card grows a death-save
+  box: see below.
+- A character's temporary HP is shown beside its HP but is not used up
+  automatically.
+
+### A character at 0 HP
+
+The full rules are in [CHARACTERS.md](CHARACTERS.md), section 7; the box on
+the card is the same one as on the sheet, and both change the same character.
+
+- **Dying.** The box shows two tallies, Saved and Failed, three pips each.
+  Type what the d20 showed and click **Death save**: 10 or more is a success,
+  less is a failure, a 1 is two failures, a 20 puts the character back up at
+  1 HP. The DM can do this for anyone; a player for their own character.
+- **Damage while down** is one failed save, added when the DM clicks Damage.
+  For a critical hit the DM clicks the next Failed pip to add the second.
+- **Stabilise** stops the saves without a roll (a Medicine check, a spell).
+  Three successes do the same. A stable character stays at 0 HP.
+- **Heal** on a dying or stable character puts them back up and clears the
+  tallies.
+- **Dead** after three failures, or when one blow leaves as much as the
+  character's max HP still to take after reaching 0. Healing is refused; the
+  DM clicks **Revive at 1 HP**, or an ally revives them (below).
+- The DM can click any pip to set a tally by hand.
+
+Nothing rolls by itself: the app does not prompt for a save when the turn
+comes round. A dying or stable character keeps its place in the order and
+still gets its turn.
+
+### The fallen
+
+A combatant is **out of the fight** when it is:
+
+- a **monster or NPC at 0 HP** (one with hit points to track), or
+- a **dead character**. Dying and stable characters are not: they stay in
+  view.
+
+What that does:
+
+- **Players no longer see it.** Its card is gone from their screen, along
+  with any target mark on it; the server does not send it to them at all.
+- **The DM's screen leaves it out as well**, until the DM ticks **Show dead**
+  above the list (the box shows how many there are, and only appears when
+  there are any). Ticked, they are listed in a group of their own at the
+  bottom, "Out of the fight, hidden from players", each with a "Hidden from
+  players" badge, and everything on the card still works. The tick is not
+  remembered: it is off again when the page is reopened.
+- **It has no turn.** Next Turn, Next Round and Begin Battle pass over it.
+- It stays in the encounter: nothing is removed, and gold is still split with
+  a dead character.
+
+It is worked out from hit points each time, not stored, so it undoes itself:
+heal a monster or NPC above 0, or revive a character, and they are back on
+everyone's screen and back in the turn order.
+
+**Reviving a dead character.** Players see dead characters by name only, in a
+**☠ Fallen** box above the list. There are two ways back:
+
+- The **DM** ticks Show dead and clicks **Revive at 1 HP** on the dead
+  character's card (or does it on the sheet), at any time.
+- An **ally** tries it: in a battle in progress, the player whose character is
+  **on turn** gets a **Try revive** button beside each name in the Fallen box,
+  if that character is capable. Capable means on their feet (above 0 HP) and
+  knowing a spell that is ticked **Revives** in the campaign's spell list
+  ([SPELLS.md](SPELLS.md)), at a level they can cast. The library's Revivify
+  (level 3) and Raise Dead (level 5) are ticked already.
+
+Either way the character comes back at 1 HP with the death saves cleared. The
+app does not use up the spell, check how long ago they died, or end the
+reviver's turn.
+
+## 7. Initiative, turns and rounds
+
+Initiative is entered in battles and quests alike. Turns and rounds are for
+battles only.
+
+- Each combatant has an **initiative roll** field. Type what the d20 showed,
+  1 to 20; the field accepts nothing else. The app does not roll the die, but
+  it adds the bonus for you and shows the total, which can go past 20 (a 20 on
+  the die with a +3 bonus is 23): a character's initiative
+  bonus from their sheet, a monster's Dexterity modifier, nothing for an NPC.
+- The DM can enter the roll for anyone, when adding them or on the card. A
+  player can enter the roll for **their own character** on its card.
+- The list is ordered by the total, highest first; ties keep the order they
+  were added in. Anyone who has not rolled yet waits at the bottom.
+- The bonus is worked out when the roll is entered. If a character's sheet
+  changes afterwards, enter the roll again to pick up the new bonus.
+- **Begin Battle** puts the first combatant on turn. Their card is
+  highlighted and the header names them.
+- **Next Turn** passes the turn to the next in the order. After the last
+  combatant it returns to the top and the **round** goes up by one.
+- **Next Round** skips straight to the top of the next round.
+- Anyone out of the fight (section 6, "The fallen") is passed over.
+
+### Targets
+
+Combatants can be marked as **targets**: whoever is being attacked (or
+healed) right now. One target is an ordinary attack; more than one is an
+**area attack**.
+
+- Click **🎯 Target** beside a combatant's name to mark them; click it again
+  to unmark. Each one marked is added to the targets.
+- The **DM** can mark anyone at any time, in a battle or a quest. A **player**
+  can while their own character is on turn in a battle, so they can show the
+  DM who they are going for. A player cannot mark someone who is out of the
+  fight, and is not shown a mark the DM leaves on one.
+- The combatant **on turn** cannot be marked: nobody targets themselves, and
+  their card has no Target button until the turn passes. To heal or hurt them
+  on their own turn, use the buttons on their card.
+- A target's card is outlined in red for everyone and reads "Targeted by
+  <whoever is on turn>".
+- While anyone is marked the DM gets an **attack bar** above the list, which
+  stays in view while scrolling. It shows who is attacking whom, each target's
+  AC and HP, and the attacker's attacks: a character's equipped weapons (all
+  of them if none are equipped) and damaging spells, or a monster's or NPC's
+  attack and damage. The amount box is ready to type in; **Damage** (or
+  Enter) and **Heal** change HP exactly as the buttons on a card do.
+- Targets stay marked after damage, for a second attack. They are cleared
+  when the turn or round moves on, when the encounter begins, ends or is
+  reopened; a target that is removed from the encounter is unmarked.
+
+**Area attacks**
+
+An attack on several targets is harder to land and its damage is shared.
+
+- **Harder to hit.** Every target's AC counts as higher for each target
+  beyond the first, by the campaign's **area attack AC penalty**. The DM sets
+  it in the campaign settings, from 0 (no penalty) to 10; it starts at 2, which
+  gives:
+
+  | Targets | Added to each AC |
+  |---|---|
+  | 1 | 0 |
+  | 2 | +2 |
+  | 3 | +4 |
+  | 4 | +6 |
+
+  The attack bar shows the AC to beat with the penalty already added
+  ("17 (15 +2)"), and each target's card says "area attack, AC +2".
+- **Who was hit.** Each target has a tick box, ticked to begin with. Untick
+  anyone the roll missed; they take nothing.
+- **Sharing the amount.** Type the total. "Split between those hit" (the
+  default) shares it evenly, any remainder going one point each to the first
+  targets marked: 7 between three is 3, 2 and 2. "Full amount to each" gives
+  every target hit the whole amount. Each target's share is shown before it
+  is applied.
+- A target with no hit points to track is left out of the sharing.
+
+The app does not roll the attack or decide whether it hits: the DM compares
+the roll with the AC shown and types the damage.
+
+## 8. Conditions
+
+The DM adds a condition to any card from the "+ Condition" list, and removes
+one by clicking its ✕. Everyone sees them.
+
+The list: Blinded, Charmed, Deafened, Frightened, Grappled, Incapacitated,
+Invisible, Paralyzed, Petrified, Poisoned, Prone, Restrained, Stunned,
+Unconscious, Concentrating.
+
+Conditions are labels to remind the table. They do not change any numbers,
+and they do not expire on their own.
+
+## 9. Rewards
+
+The DM lines up loot in the Rewards panel, on any encounter at any time.
+
+| Reward | What the DM sets |
+|---|---|
+| Gold | An amount |
+| Weapon | A weapon from the pool, a level (not below its starting level), a quantity |
+| Item | An item from the pool, a level, a quantity |
+
+Each can carry a short note ("Goblin chief's purse").
+
+**A reward does nothing until it is awarded**, and it can be awarded once.
+
+| Button | What happens |
+|---|---|
+| Award (pick a character) | The whole reward goes to that character. It can be any finished character in the campaign, not only those in the encounter. |
+| Split (gold only) | Shared evenly between the characters in the encounter. Any remainder goes one gold each, highest initiative first: 101 gold between two is 51 and 50. |
+
+- **Gold** is added to the character's balance with a money-log entry reading
+  "Reward: <encounter name>".
+- A **weapon or item** is added to what the character holds, at the reward's
+  level, stacking with any they already have. If the character is below that
+  level they hold it but cannot use it yet.
+- Removing a reward from the list does **not** take back what was awarded.
+- Spells cannot be rewards; the DM grants those on the character sheet.
+
+Until a reward is awarded only the DM can see it. Afterwards players see what
+it was and who received it.
+
+## 10. What each side sees
+
+| | DM | Players |
+|---|---|---|
+| Scene description | Yes | Yes |
+| DM notes | Yes | Never |
+| Characters | Full card | Full card |
+| Monsters | Full stat block | Name, HP, conditions |
+| NPCs | Everything | Name, role, attitude, description, HP bar |
+| Monsters and NPCs at 0 HP | With "Show dead" ticked, marked hidden | Nothing |
+| Dead characters | Full card with "Show dead" ticked, marked hidden | The name only, in the Fallen box |
+| Rewards | All | Only awarded ones |
+| Controls (add, damage, turns, rewards) | Yes | None |
+
+The server only sends a player what the right-hand column lists, so hidden
+information cannot be dug out of the page.
+

+# Items and Inventory
+
+How items work in this app: the campaign's item pool, what a character
+carries, item levels, and how items are handed out.
+
+This describes the code as it stands. Related: [WEAPONS.md](WEAPONS.md) (items
+level up the same way weapons do), [SPELLS.md](SPELLS.md),
+[CHARACTERS.md](CHARACTERS.md) (money is covered there, in section 12).

+
+---
+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- Every campaign has its own **item pool**: rope, potions, keys, quest items,
+  anything that is not a weapon or a spell.
+- A character's **inventory** is the items it holds from that pool. Players
+  cannot type in items of their own.
+- The DM creates items and hands them out. Players can only tick Equipped.
+- Items are **descriptive**. Holding or equipping one never changes a number
+  on the sheet.
+
+## 2. The item pool
+
+The pool is the "Items Pool" card on the campaign page (DM only).
+
+| Field | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| Name | Free text, up to 120 characters |
+| Description | Optional. Shown under the item in a character's inventory |
+| Base dice | Optional dice such as `2d4+2`, for items that deal damage or heal (section 5) |
+| Starts at level | 1 to 9. The lowest level this item can be (section 4) |
+| Growth | Standard, Powerful or Legendary. Only matters if the item has dice |
+| Starting option | Whether a brand-new character may pick it in the builder (section 6) |
+
+- **Adding:** the "+ Add Item" form. There is no built-in library of items.
+- **Changing:** starting level, growth (when the item has dice) and the
+  starting-option tick box can be changed in the table. Name, description and
+  dice cannot be changed on screen once created (the API accepts it); remove
+  and re-add instead.
+- **Removing:** the ✕ button. This takes the item out of **every inventory**
+  and off every encounter's reward list. There is no undo.
+
+## 3. A character's inventory
+
+On a character's sheet, the DM picks an item from the pool and clicks Give.
+
+| Each held item has | Who changes it |
+|---|---|
+| Quantity | The DM, with the − and + buttons |
+| Level | The DM, with the level picker |
+| Equipped | The owning player or the DM |
+
+- Giving an item the character already holds **adds to the stack**. A
+  character holds one stack per item, and the whole stack shares one level.
+- Quantity cannot go below 1; to take the last one away the DM uses ✕.
+- **Using up** an item (drinking a potion) is not automatic: the DM lowers the
+  quantity or removes it.
+- **Equipped** is a label. It does not change Armor Class or anything else;
+  armor is represented by the single "armor bonus" number on the sheet.
+
+**Passing items on.** A character's owner (or the DM) can give some or all of
+a held stack to another character in the campaign from the "Give to Another
+Character" card on the sheet. The items leave the giver and arrive with the
+recipient at the giver's level, unequipped. If the recipient already holds
+that item, their stack grows and keeps its own level. Gold is given the same
+way, and both characters' money logs record it.
+
+## 4. Item levels
+
+Items use the same level system as weapons (a house rule of this app):
+
+- Each held stack has a **level from 1 to 9**, never below the pool entry's
+  starting level.
+- A character must be **at least the item's level** to use it. A higher-level
+  item is still held, but shows "Requires level N" and cannot be equipped.
+- Only the DM changes an item's level.
+- If the DM levels an item past its holder, or lowers the character's level,
+  it is unequipped automatically.
+
+For an item with no dice, the level is purely a requirement: a level 3 amulet
+is one a character cannot use until level 3.
+
+## 5. Dice on items
+
+An item can carry optional dice: a healing potion's `2d4+2`, a firebomb's
+`3d6`. The app does not know whether they heal or harm; the DM applies them.
+
+The dice grow with the item's level exactly as a weapon's do, climbing the
+same ladder (1d4 → 1d6 → 1d8 → 1d10 → 1d12 → 2d6 → …) by one, two or three
+rungs per level depending on Growth. The full ladder is in
+[WEAPONS.md, section 6](WEAPONS.md#6-how-damage-grows).
+
+| Healing Potion, `2d4+2`, Standard growth | Dice shown |
+|---|---|
+| Level 1 | 2d4+2 (as typed) |
+| Level 2 | 1d6+1d8 |
+| Level 3 | 2d8 |
+
+The dice are shown beside the item in the inventory. Nothing is rolled or
+applied automatically; use the dice roller.
+
+## 6. Starting items
+
+In the builder's equipment step a new character can pick items that are:
+
+- ticked as a **starting option** in the pool, and
+- **starting level 1**.
+
+Starting items and starting weapons share the campaign's "starting items"
+allowance. Each arrives at level 1, quantity 1, unequipped.
+
+## 7. Items as rewards
+
+On an encounter the DM can line up an item as a reward, at a chosen level and

+# Monsters
+
+How monsters work in this app: the campaign's monster list, the built-in
+bestiary, and how monsters behave in an encounter.
+
+This describes the code as it stands. The built-in list is
+`backend/src/game/data/monstersLibrary.js`. Related:
+[ENCOUNTERS.md](ENCOUNTERS.md), [NPCS.md](NPCS.md).

+
+---
+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- Every campaign has its own **monster list**. Only the DM can see or change
+  it.
+- A monster in the list is a **template**. Each time it is added to an
+  encounter it becomes a separate combatant with its own hit points.
+- Stat blocks are the DM's. Players see a monster only as a name and a health
+  bar in an encounter.
+
+## 2. What a monster holds
+
+| Field | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| Name | Up to 80 characters |
+| AC | Armor Class |
+| Max HP | Hit points each copy starts an encounter with |
+| Speed | In feet. 30 unless set otherwise |
+| Ability scores | STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA. 10 unless set otherwise |
+| Attack bonus | Added to the monster's attack roll |
+| Damage | Dice for its main attack, e.g. `1d6+2` |
+| Challenge rating | A rough danger rating, e.g. `1/4`, `2` |
+| Special trait | A short note such as "Pack Tactics" |
+| Notes | Anything else: what it attacks with, how it behaves |
+
+None of these are calculated or used in formulas. They are reference numbers
+shown to the DM during a fight. A monster's ability modifiers are worked out
+from its scores for display only.
+
+## 3. Managing monsters
+
+The list is the "Monsters" card on the campaign page (DM only).
+
+- **Adding by hand:** "+ Add Monster" asks for name, AC, max HP, attack bonus
+  and damage. Speed is set to 30 and every ability score to 10; challenge
+  rating, trait and notes are left empty.
+- **Adding from the bestiary:** "📚 From Library" copies a complete stat block.
+- **Changing:** there is no edit form (the API accepts changes, but no screen
+  offers them). Remove and re-add, or add from the library.
+- **Removing:** the ✕ button, immediately, with no confirmation. Copies
+  already in encounters stay there with their name and HP, but lose their
+  stat block.
+
+## 4. The built-in bestiary
+
+38 monsters, from harmless to dangerous. Each library row shows challenge
+rating, AC, HP, attack and damage, plus its trait and notes, before you add
+it. Adding copies the monster into your campaign; the copy is yours, and later
+changes to the library do not affect it.
+
+The full bestiary, weakest first. "Attack" is the bonus added to the
+monster's attack roll.
+
+This list is written from the app's own data by `npm run docs:lists` (in `/backend`). Re-run it after changing the data; do not edit the list by hand.

+## 5. Monsters in encounters
+
+On an encounter page, the DM chooses "Monster" in the "Add to the scene"
+panel, picks one, and types its initiative.
+
+- The same monster can be added **any number of times**. Each copy has its
+  own HP and conditions. Copies share the monster's name; the screen has no
+  way to rename one (the API allows it).
+- A copy starts at the monster's max HP. Its HP stays between 0 and its max.
+- At 0 HP a copy is marked **Down** and dimmed, but keeps its place in the
+  initiative order until the DM removes it.
+- HP belongs to the encounter: a monster starts fresh in the next one.
+
+The DM's card for a monster shows AC, speed, attack bonus and damage at a
+glance, and under "details" its six ability scores with modifiers, its trait
+and its notes.
+
+## 6. What players see
+
+| Players see | Players never see |
+|---|---|
+| The monster's name | AC, speed, attack bonus, damage |
+| Its health bar and current/max HP | Ability scores, challenge rating |
+| Its conditions | Trait and notes |
+| Its place in the initiative order | The campaign's monster list |
+
+This is enforced by the server: stat blocks are never sent to a player's
+browser.
+
+Players do see a monster's exact HP numbers. If you would rather keep those
+secret, that is not currently possible.
+
+## 7. Permissions
+
+| Action | DM | Players |
+|---|---|---|
+| See the monster list and stat blocks | Yes | No |
+| Browse the built-in bestiary | Yes | Yes (it is standard reference material) |
+| Add or remove monsters | Yes | No |
+| Add a monster to an encounter | Yes | No |
+| Change a monster's HP, initiative or conditions | Yes | No |
+| See a monster in an encounter | Everything | Name, HP, conditions |
+
+## 8. What is not modelled
+
+- Multiple attacks, spells, legendary actions and resistances (use Notes)
+- Rolling a monster's attacks or damage (use the dice roller)
+- Saving throw bonuses and skills
+- Experience points for defeating monsters
+- Encounter difficulty calculated from challenge ratings
+- Monster hit dice, and rolling HP rather than using the fixed value

+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- An NPC is a person the DM plays: an innkeeper, a quest-giver, a rival, a
+  villain.
+- Every campaign has its own **NPC list**. Only the DM can see or change it.
+- An NPC does nothing by sitting in the list. Players meet one when the DM
+  **adds it to an encounter**.
+- NPCs are mainly for talking to. Combat stats are optional.
+
+## 2. What an NPC holds
+
+| Field | What it is | Who sees it |
+|---|---|---|
+| Name | Up to 80 characters | Everyone, once in an encounter |
+| Role | A few words: "Innkeeper", "Captain of the Watch" | Everyone |
+| Attitude | Friendly, Neutral or Hostile toward the party | Everyone |
+| Description | What the party can see and knows | Everyone |
+| DM notes | Secrets, motives, what they are hiding | **DM only** |
+| AC | Optional | DM only |
+| HP | Optional. Without it the NPC has no health bar | See section 5 |
+| Attack bonus | Optional | DM only |
+| Damage | Optional dice, e.g. `1d6` | DM only |
+
+A new NPC is Neutral unless you choose otherwise.
+
+## 3. Managing NPCs
+
+The NPC list is the "NPCs" card on the campaign page (DM only).
+
+- **Adding:** "+ Add NPC" opens a form with every field above. Only the name
+  is required.
+- **Changing:** there is no edit form. To change an NPC, remove it and add it
+  again (the API accepts changes, but no screen offers them).
+- **Removing:** the ✕ button, after a confirmation. This also **removes the
+  NPC from every encounter** it was in.
+
+## 4. NPCs in encounters
+
+On an encounter page, the DM chooses "NPC" in the "Add to the scene" panel
+and picks one. Each NPC can be in an encounter once.
+
+- In an **NPC quest** encounter, NPCs are listed first under "People you
+  meet", ahead of the party and any creatures.
+- In a **battle**, an NPC takes its place in the initiative order like anyone
+  else, using the initiative the DM types in.
+- An NPC with HP gets a health bar, and the DM can damage and heal it. This
+  HP belongs to the encounter: the same NPC starts at full HP in the next one.
+- An NPC with no HP has no health bar and cannot be marked Down.
+- Conditions (Prone, Charmed…) can be put on an NPC like any combatant.
+
+An NPC's card shows its attitude as a coloured badge, its role under its
+name, and its description in full. The DM's card also shows AC, attack,
+damage and the DM notes.
+
+## 5. What players see
+
+Players only ever see an NPC through an encounter it is in:
+
+| Players see | Players never see |
+|---|---|
+| Name, role, attitude, description | DM notes |
+| Health bar and conditions, if the NPC has HP | AC, attack bonus, damage |
+
+This is enforced by the server, not just hidden on screen: the hidden fields
+are never sent to a player's browser.
+
+Changing an NPC's attitude changes what players see straight away, so
+flipping a "Friendly" NPC to "Hostile" is itself a reveal.
+
+## 6. NPC or monster?
+
+| | NPC | Monster |
+|---|---|---|
+| Meant for | People with names and motives | Things to fight |
+| Has a description players can read | Yes | No |
+| Has an attitude | Yes | No |
+| Has DM-only notes | Yes | Yes |
+| Combat stats | Optional, basic | Full stat block |
+| Can be in an encounter more than once | No | Yes (a pack of goblins) |
+| Built-in library | No | Yes |
+
+A named villain the party will both talk to and fight works well as an NPC
+with HP, AC, attack and damage filled in.
+
+## 7. Permissions
+
+| Action | DM | Players |
+|---|---|---|

+- A record of which NPCs the party has met, outside of encounters
+- Portraits

+
+How spells work in this app: the campaign's spell list, how a character comes

+mean.
+
+This describes the code as it stands. The built-in list is
+`backend/src/game/data/spellsLibrary.js`. Related: [WEAPONS.md](WEAPONS.md),
+[ITEMS.md](ITEMS.md), [CHARACTERS.md](CHARACTERS.md).

+
+---
+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- Every campaign has its own **spell list**. A spell exists in one campaign
+  only.
+- A character **knows** spells from that list, each with a Prepared tick box.
+- The DM runs the list and decides who learns what. Players can only prepare
+  and unprepare the spells they know.
+- Unlike weapons and items, a spell has **no level of its own to raise**. Its
+  level is fixed, and so is its damage.
+
+## 2. The spell list
+
+The list is the "Spell List" card on the campaign page (DM only).
+
+| Field | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| Name | Free text, up to 80 characters |
+| Level | Cantrip, or level 1 to 9. Also the character level needed to use it (section 5) |
+| School | Free text: Evocation, Illusion… |
+| What it does | One sentence. Shown wherever the spell is shown |
+| Damage | Picked from a list, or "No damage". Fixed; it does not grow |
+| Starting option | Whether a brand-new character may pick it in the builder (section 8) |
+| Revives | Whether it brings back the dead. A character who can cast one may revive a dead ally on their turn in a battle ([ENCOUNTERS.md](ENCOUNTERS.md), section 6). Ticked already on the library's Revivify and Raise Dead |
+| Casting time, range, duration | Stored for library spells but not shown on any screen |
+
+A cantrip is a spell of level 0. The app always calls it a **cantrip**, never
+"level 0" or "level 1".
+
+- **Adding:** by hand with the "+ Add Spell" form (name, level, school,
+  damage, what it does and the two tick boxes), or from the library.
+- **Changing:** damage (the drop-down in the table) and the Revives and
+  starting-option tick boxes. Name, level, school and description cannot be changed on screen
+  once created (the API accepts it); remove and re-add instead.
+- **Damage choices:** the drop-down offers "No damage", then 1 to 6, 8 or 10
+  dice of d4, d6, d8, d10 or d12 (1d4 up to 10d12), plus the three unusual
+  values the library uses (`3d4+3`, `2d8+4d6`, `20`).
+- **Removing:** the ✕ button. Every character who knows the spell forgets it.
+  There is no undo.
+
+## 3. The built-in library
+
+"📚 From Library" offers 131 standard spells to copy into the list:
+
+| Level | Spells |
+|---|---|
+| Cantrips | 26 |
+| 1 | 30 |
+| 2 | 26 |
+| 3 | 21 |
+| 4 | 13 |
+| 5 | 15 |
+
+Before you add one, each row shows:
+
+- whether it is a **cantrip** or its **level**, and who can use it;
+- its **default damage**, or "no damage";
+- its school;
+- **what it does**, in a sentence.
+
+Every library spell is listed in full in
+[section 11](#11-the-complete-spell-library).
+
+35 of the library spells deal damage and come with a default, taken from the
+standard rules at the spell's own level. For example:
+
+| Spell | Level | Default damage |
+|---|---|---|
+| Fire Bolt | Cantrip | 1d10 |
+| Sacred Flame | Cantrip | 1d8 |
+| Magic Missile | 1 | 3d4+3 (all three darts together) |
+| Burning Hands | 1 | 3d6 |
+| Scorching Ray | 2 | 2d6 (per ray; there are three) |
+| Fireball | 3 | 8d6 |
+| Ice Storm | 4 | 2d8+4d6 |
+| Cone of Cold | 5 | 8d8 |
+
+Spells that heal, protect or control (Cure Wounds, Shield, Hold Person…) have
+no default. Pick a value from the Damage drop-down after adding if you want
+one shown.
+
+A spell added from the library is **not** a starting option until ticked. The
+library has nothing above level 5; add higher spells by hand.
+
+## 4. Granting spells to characters
+
+On a character's sheet, the DM picks a spell from the list and clicks Grant.
+
+- Any class can be granted any spell. Whether a non-spellcaster should have
+  one is the DM's call.
+- The DM can remove a known spell with ✕.
+- The owning player ticks **Prepared**. Prepared is a label: there is no limit
+  on how many spells are prepared.
+- **Passing a spell on.** A character's owner (or the DM) can give a known
+  spell to another character in the campaign from the "Give to Another
+  Character" card on the sheet. The spell moves: the giver no longer knows
+  it. It cannot be given to someone who already knows it, and a recipient
+  below the spell's level knows it but cannot use it yet.
+- The "Spells Known" card only appears on a sheet when the campaign's spell
+  list has at least one spell.
+- Each known spell shows its level (or "Cantrip"), its damage, and what it
+  does.
+
+## 5. Spell level and who can use it
+
+This is a house rule of this app. In standard D&D a 3rd-level spell needs a
+5th-level caster; here the two numbers are the same.
+
+**A character must be at least the spell's level to use it.** Cantrips are
+open to everyone.
+
+| Spell | Who can use it |
+|---|---|
+| Cantrip | Any character |
+| Level 1 | Any character (everyone starts at level 1) |
+| Level 2 | Characters of level 2 and above |
+| Level 3 | Characters of level 3 and above |
+| … | … |
+| Level 9 | Characters of level 9 and above |
+
+A spell above the character's level can still be **known**, but it shows
+"Requires level N", cannot be prepared, and is left out of encounters. If the
+DM lowers a character's level, spells now out of reach are unprepared
+automatically.
+
+## 6. Damage
+
+A spell's damage is whatever is picked in its Damage drop-down, shown beside
+the spell on the sheet and in encounters. It does not change with the character's
+level, and nothing is added to it.
+
+## 7. Spellcasting numbers
+
+Shown only for classes with a spellcasting ability:
+
+| Class | Spellcasting ability |
+|---|---|
+| Wizard | Intelligence |
+| Cleric, Druid, Ranger | Wisdom |
+| Bard, Paladin, Sorcerer, Warlock | Charisma |
+| Barbarian, Fighter, Monk, Rogue | None |
+
+| Number | Formula | Used when |
+|---|---|---|
+| Spell save DC | 8 + proficiency bonus + spellcasting ability modifier | A target rolls to resist your spell |
+| Spell attack bonus | Proficiency bonus + spellcasting ability modifier | You roll to hit with a spell |
+
+A character without a spellcasting class can still be granted spells, but has
+no save DC or attack bonus shown.
+
+## 8. Starting spells
+
+In the builder's equipment step a new character can pick spells that are:
+
+- ticked as a **starting option** in the list,
+- **cantrips or level 1** (a new character is level 1), and
+- only if the character's **class has a spellcasting ability**.
+
+The number allowed is the campaign's "starting spells" setting. Starting
+spells arrive unprepared.
+
+## 9. Permissions
+
+| Action | DM | Owning player | Other players |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| See the spell list | Yes | Only what their own character holds, plus the starting options while they have a character to build | The same, for their own character |

+| Prepare or unprepare | Yes | Yes, if the character can use it | No |
+| See a character's spells | Yes | Yes | Yes |
+
+## 10. What is not modelled
+
+- Spell slots, and casting a spell at a higher level
+- Cantrip damage increasing at higher character levels
+- Limits on how many spells can be prepared or known
+- Concentration, components, rituals
+- Class spell lists (any spell can be granted to anyone)
+- Healing amounts as a separate value (pick them in Damage if you want them
+  shown)
+- Applying spell damage to a target automatically
+
+## 11. The complete spell library
+
+Every spell "📚 From Library" offers, with the damage it arrives with.

+
+How weapons work in this app: the campaign's weapon pool, how a character
+comes to hold a weapon, weapon levels, and how attack and damage numbers are
+worked out.
+
+This describes the code as it stands. The formulas live in
+`backend/src/game/calculations.js`; the built-in list is
+`backend/src/game/data/weaponsLibrary.js`. Related: [ITEMS.md](ITEMS.md),
+[SPELLS.md](SPELLS.md), [CHARACTERS.md](CHARACTERS.md).

+
+---
+
+## 1. The basics
+
+- Every campaign has its own **weapon pool**. A weapon exists in one campaign
+  only.
+- A character never owns a free-standing weapon: it holds a **copy** of a pool
+  entry, with its own quantity, level and equipped flag.
+- The DM runs the pool and decides who gets what. Players can only equip and
+  unequip what they hold.
+
+## 2. The weapon pool
+
+The pool is the "Weapons Pool" card on the campaign page (DM only).
+
+| Field | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| Name | Free text, up to 80 characters |
+| Base damage | Dice such as `1d8` or `2d6` — the damage at the weapon's starting level |
+| Damage type | Free text: slashing, piercing, fire… |
+| Attack ability | Strength, Dexterity, or Finesse (whichever of the two is higher for the wielder) |
+| Starts at level | 1 to 9. The lowest level this weapon can be (section 5) |
+| Growth | Standard, Powerful or Legendary: how fast the dice climb per level (section 6) |
+| Starting option | Whether a brand-new character may pick it in the builder (section 8) |
+| Properties, range | Stored for library weapons (light, thrown, 20/60 ft…) but not shown or used anywhere |
+
+- **Adding:** by hand with the "+ Add Weapon" form, or from the library.
+- **Changing:** starting level, growth and the starting-option tick box can be
+  changed in the table. Name, damage, type and ability cannot be changed on
+  screen once created (the API accepts it); remove and re-add instead.
+- **Removing:** the ✕ button. This takes the weapon away from **every
+  character holding it** and off every encounter's reward list. There is no
+  undo.
+- The same weapon can be added twice; nothing stops duplicate names.
+
+## 3. The built-in library
+
+"📚 From Library" offers 37 standard weapons to copy into the pool:
+
+| Category | Count | Examples |
+|---|---|---|
+| Simple melee | 10 | Club 1d4, Dagger 1d4, Mace 1d6, Spear 1d6 |
+| Simple ranged | 4 | Shortbow, Light Crossbow, Dart, Sling |
+| Martial melee | 18 | Longsword 1d8, Rapier 1d8, Greataxe 1d12, Greatsword 2d6 |
+| Martial ranged | 5 | Longbow, Heavy Crossbow, Hand Crossbow |
+
+A weapon added from the library arrives with starting level 1, Standard
+growth, and **not** ticked as a starting option. Change those in the table
+afterwards. Every library weapon is listed in
+[section 12](#12-the-complete-weapon-library).
+
+## 4. Giving weapons to characters
+
+On a character's sheet, the DM picks a weapon from the pool and clicks Give.
+
+- It arrives at the weapon's starting level, quantity 1, unequipped.
+- Giving a weapon the character already holds **adds to the stack**; the stack
+  keeps the level it has. A character holds one stack per weapon, so two
+  copies of the same weapon at different levels is not possible.
+- The DM can take a weapon away with ✕ on the sheet.
+- The owning player ticks **Equipped**. Equipped is a label only: unequipped
+  weapons still show their numbers, and nothing limits how many are equipped.
+
+**Passing a weapon on.** A character's owner (or the DM) can give a held
+weapon to another character in the campaign from the "Give to Another
+Character" card on the sheet. Some or all of the stack moves: it leaves the
+giver and arrives with the recipient at the giver's level, unequipped. If the
+recipient already holds that weapon, their stack grows and keeps its own
+level. A recipient below the weapon's level holds it but cannot use it yet.
+
+## 5. Weapon levels
+
+This is a house rule of this app, not standard D&D.
+
+- Each held copy has a **level from 1 to 9**. Two characters can hold the same
+  weapon at different levels.
+- Only the DM changes a copy's level, with the level picker beside it on the
+  sheet. Each option shows the damage at that level.
+- A copy can never go below the pool entry's **starting level**. Raising a
+  pool entry's starting level lifts any copies below it and unequips them.
+
+**Who can use it.** A character must be at least the copy's level:
+
+| Character level | Can use weapons of level |
+|---|---|
+| 1 | 1 |
+| 2 | 1–2 |
+| 5 | 1–5 |
+| 9 and above | 1–9 |
+
+A weapon above its holder's level is still held, but it shows "Requires level
+N", cannot be equipped, and is left out of quick stats and encounters. If the
+DM levels a weapon past its holder, or lowers the character's level, it is
+unequipped automatically.
+
+## 6. How damage grows
+
+The dice in the pool are the damage at the weapon's starting level. Each level
+above that moves the dice up a fixed ladder, in the smallest steps dice allow:
+
+| Rung | Dice | Average |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | 1d4 | 2.5 |
+| 2 | 1d6 | 3.5 |
+| 3 | 1d8 | 4.5 |
+| 4 | 1d10 | 5.5 |
+| 5 | 1d12 | 6.5 |
+| 6 | 2d6 | 7 |
+| 7 | 1d6+1d8 | 8 |
+| 8 | 2d8 | 9 |
+| 9 | 1d8+1d10 | 10 |
+| 10 | 2d10 | 11 |
+| 11 | 1d10+1d12 | 12 |
+| 12 | 2d12 | 13 |
+| 13 | 3d8 | 13.5 |
+| … | adding a die each time the current dice max out | |
+
+Every rung is +1 average damage over the last, or +0.5 where a die is added.
+
+**Growth** sets how many rungs a weapon climbs per level:
+
+| Growth | Rungs per level | A 1d6 weapon at levels 1, 2, 3, 4 | At level 9 |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Standard | 1 | 1d6, 1d8, 1d10, 1d12 | 2d10 |
+| Powerful | 2 | 1d6, 1d10, 2d6, 2d8 | 1d10+2d12 |
+| Legendary | 3 | 1d6, 1d12, 2d8, 1d10+1d12 | 4d12 |
+
+A weapon with a higher starting level counts from there: a 2d6 greatsword that
+starts at level 3 with Standard growth is 2d6 at level 3, 1d6+1d8 at level 4
+and 2d8 at level 5.
+
+- At its starting level a weapon always shows its dice exactly as typed.
+- Dice that are not on the ladder (`1d4+1`, `2d4+2`) climb from the highest
+  rung that is not stronger than them: `2d4+2` (average 7) continues from 2d6.
+- Dice the app cannot read (free text such as "special") never change.
+
+## 7. Attack and damage numbers
+
+| Number | Formula |
+|---|---|
+| Attack bonus | Ability modifier + proficiency bonus |
+| Damage | The dice at the copy's level + ability modifier |
+
+- The ability modifier is Strength, Dexterity, or the higher of the two for a
+  Finesse weapon.
+- The weapon's level changes the **dice only**, never the bonuses.
+- Every character is treated as proficient with every weapon.
+
+These numbers appear on the character sheet, in the quick-stats drawer, and
+on the character's card in an encounter.
+
+## 8. Starting weapons
+
+In the builder's equipment step a new character can pick weapons that are:
+
+- ticked as a **starting option** in the pool, and
+- **starting level 1** (a new character is level 1).
+
+Starting weapons and starting items share the campaign's "starting items"
+allowance. They arrive at level 1, unequipped.
+
+## 9. Weapons as rewards
+
+On an encounter the DM can line up a weapon as a reward, at a chosen level
+(not below its starting level) and quantity, and later award it to a
+character. Awarding adds it to what the character holds, exactly as giving it
+on the sheet would. See [ENCOUNTERS.md](ENCOUNTERS.md).
+
+## 10. Permissions
+
+| Action | DM | Owning player | Other players |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| See the pool | Yes | Only what their own character holds, plus the starting options while they have a character to build | The same, for their own character |
+| See the built-in library | Yes | No | No |
+| Add, change or remove pool entries | Yes | No | No |
+| Give a weapon from the pool, or take one away | Yes | No | No |
+| Give a held weapon to another character | Yes | Yes | No |
+| Change a held weapon's level or quantity | Yes | No | No |
+| Equip or unequip | Yes | Yes, if the character can use it | No |
+| See a character's weapons | Yes | Yes | Yes |
+
+## 11. What is not modelled
+
+- Weapon proficiency by class (everyone is proficient with everything)
+- Properties: two-handed, versatile, light, reach, loading, thrown
+- Range and ammunition
+- Critical hits, advantage, and rolling the attack itself (use the dice roller)
+- Magic bonuses such as +1 weapons (use a higher level or growth instead)
+- Price and weight
+
+## 12. The complete weapon library
+
+Every weapon "📚 From Library" offers. Base damage is the damage at level 1.
+Properties and range are carried into the campaign but not shown or used.
+
+This list is written from the app's own data by `npm run docs:lists` (in `/backend`). Re-run it after changing the data; do not edit the list by hand.
