AUTHORIZED WORLDS · AUTHOR + FAN WRITER TOOLS
Open the sandbox. Keep canon yours. Authorized Worlds let a rights holder define a controlled non-canon fan-fiction program while fan writers create original characters and stories inside the permitted sandbox.
Hard platform rule: no fan writer may use another fan writer’s character. Every published fan entry remains visibly non-canon.
