Greetings and salutations in the name of the great bringer of Knowledge and Truth! May Lorielan grant you the wisdom you seek.

I have recently undertaken a quest for knowledge with the blessings of my Devine Patron. I shall be spending the next great while compiling what shall be my first large work of History. I have decided to chronicle the personal histories of the characters that make achaea so grand.

It is common for many characters to put pen to parchment and record their early formative years, and the history of their families. Many of us have done so in order to place in perspective the horrors we have faced as children. Others to celebrate the joys of a happy childhood in a loving home. I shall compile these stories in a great tome to be placed in the Library of the Temple of Lorielan when it is complete, there to be shared and enjoyed by all as the Lady wills.

If you would like to contribute your own story to my work, please mail it to me. I would be honoured to recieve anyone's history. No character is too insignificant, no knowledge worthless in the eyes of my Lady.

Together I am sure we will share many stories to warm us by the fire, especially when Sarapis sends us a whoppin blizzard...which seems to happen quite regularly. At first I think I shall divide the histories by Guild for organization. (Yes Kona there will be a section for Rogues)

Now for the OOC part: (expects a zap soon)

You may email me documents at *cmacp@telusplanet.net* and I shall post the web page when it is partly finished and ask for ideas on how to improve it. It is my goal that disseminating this knowledge will encourage players to improve their role playing skills, and hone their characters' personalities. (easy for me to say as I blab on OOC)

Well this brings me to the end of my post...*thwaps Glade* WAKE UP! So I shall retire.

I remain respectfully yours, a servant of Truth and Knowledge,

Oswald Snowmantle of Northgrove
