Reveal at your pace
Hide a paragraph, an NPC's true name, an entire location — until the moment is right. Players never receive content they shouldn't see. No placeholders, no whitespace gaps, no leaks.
A Living Tome for Tabletop Campaigns
Where every campaign
becomes a chronicle.
DustyVellum is a campaign management tool built around persistent asymmetric knowledge — each player sees only what their Game Master has revealed to them.
What's Inside
Built for the long game.
A living chronicle
The game log captures every table-relevant moment — names learned, secrets uncovered, ground gained. Each player's record reflects only what their character witnessed.
Sheets that survive change
Character sheets built on stable identifiers that outlast schema changes. Rename, restructure, migrate between systems — nothing is lost, everything is auditable.
The Method
From the first session onward.
- I
Open a new tome
Create a game, pick a system, and invite your table with a single link. Your players land in their own view of the world — populated with only what you've chosen to share.
- II
Write in the open, reveal in private
Draft your full world in the wiki — NPC histories, dungeon contents, the names of the gods. Mark blocks, pages, or whole entries as GM-only. They simply do not exist in player views until you reveal them.
- III
Let the chronicle keep itself
Reveals, rolls, and reveals-during-rolls land in the game log automatically. Searchable in seconds. A campaign that ran four years ago is still browsable like it ended yesterday.
