GenesisDM: Fantasy Assistant · Wave 1 Tester Preview

The Future of DM Screens Has a Voice.

GenesisDM: Fantasy Assistant is an official DM assistant for all experiences — the first DM screen that listens. Describe a scene out loud and it finds the art and music to match — live, at your table, running entirely on your own machine.

The Idea

Run your whole world by the sound of your own voice.

No hotkeys. No alt-tabbing out of the story to hunt for the right track. GenesisDM listens while you narrate and quietly keeps the table's scene, mood, and memory in sync with what you're actually saying.

Just talk.

Say "a misty, mysterious forest path opens before you," and GenesisDM's local speech engine hears it, pulls out the scene, and brings up matching art and a moody track before you finish the sentence.

It remembers so you don't have to.

Every NPC you invent and every thread you open feeds a living world-bible that autonomously updates as the story is told — and carries forward into your next session.

The tone follows your words.

Describe a fight and the table turns tense. Describe a tavern and it turns warm. Matches are confidence-scored, so GenesisDM only jumps in when it's sure — never a jarring wrong guess.

Yours alone.

Speech transcription and scene extraction both run locally on your PC — no cloud API, no subscription. What's said at your table stays at your table.

Confirm Edit Discard

Campaign Crafter WIP — nothing lands until you confirm, edit, or discard it.

UI chrome is illustrative, built from the trial build's real theme — not literal screen captures. The forest scene shown is real starter-pack art bundled with the app (Pexels license, Francesco Ungaro). The tactical map is real CC0 art (Kenney, kenney.nl) shown for illustration — not yet part of the starter pack.

Campaign Crafter

Work in Progress

Your world, extracted as you tell it.

Campaign Crafter is GenesisDM's newest piece, and it's still finding its final shape — testers are seeing it early, rough edges and all. Here's what's already working:

Voice-driven entity extraction — NPCs, Factions, Locations, Creatures & Items, each with a "why" that gives it narrative weight
Nothing lands automatically — every extraction waits in a queue for your Confirm / Edit / Discard
A living storyboard that auto-draws relationship lines between entities that share tags
Scenes & Threads — your run-of-show and your throughlines, tracked in one place, session to session
One-click Run Sheet export — turn your own worldbuilding into a real session plan
