I'm about to give. But here goes:
Just put all your stories in a single tiddlywiki. Use tags like
"character" to mark your reference-type tiddlers, and a tag for each
story so you can keep your stories separate, easily see all tiddlers
related to that story.
Don't think of it as "one huge tiddlywiki" like that's a negative thing
-- TiddlyWiki is okay with enormous amounts of text. It includes the
word "tiddly" not in reference to some total size limit, but because the
intention is that the individual content elements are each small.
I wish there was a Informatics version of the line by Pooh Bear "I'm a
bear of very little brain and long words confuse me".
Yes, I'm well aware you can do many things all-in-one. But sorry, I
prefer to partition my disks[1] and use subdirectories.
If there was some kind of global filter which could magically make only
certain subsections corresponding to stories visible then perhaps. But
the reality is that some things are going to have to have an enormous
number of tags applied for that to work.
There's also the 'publishing' aspect, which stories have been submitted
to which publishers at what date and what response.
All this is a lot easier on a partitioned view and the simplest way to
partition -- KISS -- is separate files.
[1] as in /boot, /home, /usr, /local, ~/Documents, ~/Downloads, ~/Music,
~/Photographs and such. It makes backup easier. It makes many things
more manageable.
