Home Screen

The Home Screen is your starting point in Mimir. From here you can access campaigns, characters, reference materials, and application settings.

Home Screen

The header bar is consistent across the entire application — it appears on every screen:

Element Position Function
Mimir Logo (skull icon) Left Returns to the home screen from anywhere
Campaign Selector Left-center Dropdown to switch campaigns or create new ones
Characters Center Opens the character list (all campaigns)
Reference Center Opens the D&D 5e reference browser in a new window
Settings (gear icon) Right Application preferences and catalog management

The campaign selector dropdown shows:

  • All active (non-archived) campaigns
  • + New Campaign button at the bottom
  • Import Campaign option for loading archives

Selecting a campaign navigates to its Campaign Dashboard.

The home screen displays the Mimir landing with the floating skull and tagline. The skull artwork adapts to the active theme (light, dark, or hyper).
