🪄 The Lorexicon Grimoire of Creation

Your PF2e Arcane Companion — Foundry VTT & Web

Choosing Your Platform

Lorexicon offers two paths to the forge:

	Lorexicon Web	Foundry VTT Module
Best for	Quick access from any browser — no Foundry required	GMs who run their games in Foundry VTT
Requirements	A modern web browser and a Patreon account	Foundry VTT v12.343+, PF2e Remaster v6.12+
Creations	Stored in your Lorexicon library	Placed directly into your Foundry world
Get started	Chapter I: Lorexicon Web	Chapter II: The Foundry Module

Both platforms share the same creation engine and interface — your prompts, contexts, and job history work identically on either.

Chapter I: Lorexicon Web

Navigate to app.fergusware.com in your browser.
Click Sign in with Patreon to forge your pact and enter the realm.
Behold the enchanted prompt window, alive with your monthly usage display.

That’s it — no installation, no dependencies, just arcane creation at your fingertips.

Tip: The ☰ hamburger menu in Lorexicon Web lets you switch between the Parchment (Light) and Grimoire (Dark) themes, and toggle image generation on or off — the same option Foundry users find in their module settings.

Chapter II: Invoking the Foundry Module

In Foundry’s Add-on Modules → Install Module, seek out Lorexicon and click Install:

Should you require, you may paste the manifest directly from the Oracle:
```
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Fergusware/lorexicon-support/refs/heads/main/manifests/module.json
```
Click Install, then in Manage Modules enable Lorexicon.
Restart your Foundry realm if the fates demand it.

Compatibility runes:

Foundry VTT: v12.343 or later
Pathfinder 2e Remaster: v6.12 or later
Dependencies: None — Lorexicon stands alone

Chapter III: Opening the Lorexicon Portal

To call Lorexicon forth:

Lorexicon Web: Navigate to app.fergusware.com and log in — you’ll arrive at the creation portal directly.
Foundry VTT: Venture to either the Actors tab or Journal tab and click the Lorexicon button nestled at the bottom.

On first start, you will be prompted to Bind Your Patreon Pact (see below). Behold the enchanted prompt window, alive with your monthly usage display.

Chapter IV: Binding Your Patreon Pact

When you first awaken Lorexicon’s arcane circuits, you must forge a Patreon pact:

Lorexicon Web: Click Sign in with Patreon on the login page. Grant Lorexicon access to view your Patreon identity, pledges, and account status. Success delivers you to the creation portal.
Foundry VTT: A popup window beckons — ensure your browser allows pop-ups for your Foundry domain. Grant the same Patreon access in that window. Success seals the pact — Lorexicon’s welcome grimoire unfurls in Foundry. Failure or denial scrawls an error in chat.

On either platform, you may unbind the ritual at any time by clicking the 🔗 Unlink icon in the Usage panel.

Chapter V: The Welcome Invocation

When first summoned, Lorexicon will unfurl its greeting, welcoming you to the forge of creation.

Chapter VI: Crafting Your Creation

Element	Description
Type	NPC, Creature, Hazard, Encounter, or Merchant
Prompt	Textarea (up to 50,000 characters) for your narrative or mechanical visions
Result	When the summoning is complete, displays your creation’s name, linked to its new document
Usage Panel	• Completed: x / y • Remaining: z (flames red at 0) • Patreon ID: 12345 🔗 • Subscription: free
Buttons	• Submit: begin creation • Cancel: close the window • Reset: clear all fields

Below, a Progress Bar pulses while the forge works its magic (~30-60 seconds).

Chapter VII: Consulting the Prompt Advisor

Before you commit your incantation to the forge, consider calling upon the Prompt Advisor. Click the Advise button (right next to Submit), and it will review your prompt and return a revised version with an explanation of what it changed and why. A dialog presents the Advisor’s counsel — click Use to accept the suggestions, or Discard to keep your original text.

The Prompt Advisor does not count against your monthly quota — only the final Submit spends a spell slot. Discard the suggestions and you can consult it again; once you click Use, the Advisor steps aside for that creation. For the full guide, see The Prompt Advisor.

Chapter VIII: The Summoning of Your Creation

When the progress bar runs its course:

Lorexicon conjures your creation into being — in Foundry, it’s safely nestled within a “Lorexicon” folder on the Actor or Journal tab; in Lorexicon Web, it appears on-screen and in your library.
The creation opens automatically.
The Result rune bears the name of the creation as a link – your new creation awaits.

No further import rituals are required to begin using your creation.

Chapter IX: Tracking Your Magical Quota

Each month’s magic is finite. Observe your Usage Panel:

Completed: Prompts expended this month
Remaining: Spells left (resets at the turn of the calendar)
Patreon ID: Your bonded Patreon identity (click 🔗 to sever the bond)
Subscription: Your current tier

Hover any rune for further illumination.

Chapter X: When the Fates Frown

Should darkness cloud your ritual:

Affliction	Lorexicon’s Response
Auth Denied/Failure	An “authentication error” appears — retry the login or pop-up and try again.
Quota Depleted	A red “Remaining” rune blazes 0; a warning cries “No more magic.”
Generation Timeout/API Error	“Generation failed — please try again.”
Popup Blocked/Closed/Timeout	(Foundry) “Patreon authentication failed. Allow pop-ups and retry.”

Chapter XI: Sage Advice & Troubleshooting

Lorexicon button vanished? (Foundry) Ensure the module is enabled and your realm restarted.
Pop-up barred? (Foundry) Permit pop-ups for your Foundry domain.
Can’t log in? (Web) Ensure your browser accepts cookies from app.fergusware.com.
Remaining stuck at 0? Quotas renew at the start of each calendar month.
Auth errors persist? Click 🔗 to unlink, then reforge your Patreon pact.
