Where this content appears
Rules content is shown in the encyclopedia, the character builders and sheets, the bestiary, and the battle tracker. The reference pages carry the notice for their own corpus at the foot of each page, so the attribution travels with the material rather than only living here.
Content that is not part of an open license is not reproduced. Where the app needs to refer to it, it appears as a name and a citation to the book it is published in, with no rules text.
Our own work
The interface, the artwork commissioned for it, the written copy, and the software itself are © Mycena Studios LLC. None of the licenses above extend to them.
No part of the app’s artwork is machine generated. Icons and glyphs we did not draw are credited in the icons entry above.
