I'm afraid that we don't permit fan-fiction to be posted on this site for this reason.
Any tool intended to promote its use could be similarly regarded as legally "dubious".

There is fan fiction that has no legal problems (what do you mean by technically illegal?) so I do not understand why a tool would be problematic.
