Worldbuilding from Spencer's Law

Start ordinary, then price wonders. A world feels real when groceries, rent, and gossip exist alongside flying bricks.

Ordinary First

Anchor every street in the everyday: who collects trash, who runs the corner store, what the commute costs. Then place one wonder per block — a clinic that treats power burns, a pawnshop that fences relics. Ripples, not rewrites: each wonder changes prices, policing, and rumors nearby.

2026 Texture

Phones film everything, so secret battles leak. Factions watch footage, spin stories, recruit witnesses. Let reputation travel faster than heroes: today's rescue is tonight's viral clip and tomorrow's faction offer.
