Credit of the Author(s)
We have a few authors in our wriing departement but we have very simple rules to who owns anything.
Things you expand on
For things you expanded on eg. if you had an idea for an existing piece of content that specific aspect belongs to you, it is a first one to say it owns it rule: if you say: "Natura", then you own that name for a kingdom, if someone says: "a giant tree monster", they own the rights for the monster but not for the whole kingdom concept.
Things you Made
If you make like an entire concept yourself like the kingdom name etc. you get the credit for that, people who expand on it get credit for that specific aspenct of theirs. But you still own the rest.
Scenario
You leave the company:
- You get credit for your specific assets and the company can't use them
- You cant use the thing you expanded on For example: if someone suggested Natura and the capital Flora, and you designed one letter for their alphabet: only that one letter belongs to you, the whole kingdom is from the original author.
