Relationship Maps

Core feature

Relationship Maps

Visualize people, places, factions, and events as a connected network. Use filters and selections to focus the parts of your world that matter right now.

A city map: who lives there, who runs it, and who is quietly connected to whom.

Views & Patterns

Use map views to inspect structure from different angles, from dense clusters to clear chains of command.

  • Highlight cluster-heavy regions
  • Spot hub-style connections
  • Review chain-like relationship paths

Selections & Bulk Edits

Select multiple nodes to retag or apply bulk changes in one pass.

  • Multi-select with keyboard and click
  • Change tags for many nodes
  • Batch updates for selected items

Focus & Filter

Filter nodes by tag, relationship type, or text. Focus on a single faction or spotlight a character's immediate neighborhood.

  • Tag, relationship-type, and folder filters
  • Neighborhood expansion
  • Show only what has a portrait, or only what is well connected

Common workflows

Character web

Map allies, rivals, and mentors to visualize dramatic tension.

  • Start with key characters
  • Add relationships with types
  • Apply an auto-layout: Organize, Grid, Circle, or Hierarchy

Faction influence

Show how factions connect to locations and leaders.

  • Filter to just factions + leaders
  • Inspect chains of influence and who answers to whom
  • Capture a reference view for session notes

Draw on the map

Notes, labels, and lines

Add sticky notes, region labels, and drawn lines straight onto the canvas: the border nobody agrees on, the route the party took, the question you have not answered yet. Annotations can be kept owner-only, and you choose whether they appear in an export.

Your own backdrop

Put a drawn map, a floor plan, or a star chart behind the graph and place your entities on top of it, so the network sits where it actually happens.

Tips

  • Use zoom controls / and pan with drag to inspect clusters.
  • Keep relationships typed (ally, rival, member of) for better filtering and readability.
  • When the map is busy, filter by tag or open only one collection to reduce noise.
