Foe Foundry AI Policy
No AI Monsters. No AI Art.
Foe Foundry doesn't use AI to make monsters or art.
Every statblock, power, and template is written by hand, by me. Every illustration is licensed from real artists who deserve to get paid.
What We Do Use AI For
AI can't replace creativity, but it's decent at chores. Here's how it shows up behind the scenes:
- Coding Help: LLMs make CSS suck less. The monster logic is mine.
- Smart Search (Coming Soon): Type "creepy undead for a haunted mansion" and actually get useful results, not just keyword bingo.
- Generator Translation (Coming Soon): Say "half-dragon assassin with illusory magic" and the AI turns that into parameters for my handcrafted templates.
- Encounter Ideas (Coming Soon): "Ambush in a dark forest" becomes filters for my existing encounter tables.
Notice the pattern: AI doesn't invent the monsters. It just helps you talk to the system in plain English.
Why It Matters
- Human Creativity First: Every monster power is designed, balanced, and tested by a human GM.
- No Slop: Monsters aren't just hallucinated, they're based on human-designed rules and templates.
- Better Tools: Where AI shines - understanding casual language - it makes the site easier to use.
