Some were beats faster. easily picked, like the bovine-esque Hoatzin, that, instead of flying, spends most of its time hopping from branch to —Magdalena Grovebright branch, and relies upon fermentation to digest its meals. Others choices were less obvious, like the Great Crested Grebes, who are loving and caring partners that court via ear reader, dance. All of these birds are equally loved by us and we can Thank you for your patronage! The text within only hope you’ll love them, too. this booklet is composed mostly from the D viewpoint of Magdalena Grovebright, adventurer CREATING YOUR CHARacTER extraordinaire.

Sample file Dear reader, Archimedes Quill With the Marpenoth of my life approaching, I thought about sitting down to chronicle my many adventures and expeditions. While I was already an avid scribe when I first set out into the great undiscovered and forgotten places of this world, oftentimes wonder overtook me and I found myself scribbling things down in the dead of night, with only the stars for my roof. I encountered many landscapes, secrets and folk, though nobody touched me as much as the hidden aarakocra and the misunderstood kenku. With some pride, I present to you all the encounters I have made so far. Some of them I sought out myself, while others occurred merely by chance. And while I could return to visit some of those newly made friends again, I can only wonder about what many others are up to now. While I have no proof, I am certain that aarakocra and kenku share common ancestry, though somehow the kenku seem to have made a transgression so dire that they have not even been able to atone for it over time, or so it seems. I hope you share my same excitement, not only about the wonderful creatures filling this very world, but for all the locales they inhabit. This world is so fantastical! Once I sort out all my notes I am sure to explore some more, until I reach my final Well met! adventure, may it be in a distant future. I have found this diary and dissected it in my small study within Maybe, dear reader, we may even find each other someday. I am Candle Keep. At times I have even undertaken strenuous travel eager to hear about all your adventures, as I am sure you have a to these places myself, though most of the time, I have been able lifetime worth of small wonders to draw from. to match Magdalena’s scripture with similar accounts, thereby confirming the veracity of the contents presented. While I can With love, readily vouch for the majority, some of the contents had me puzzled and, even as an aarakocra, I find them too fantastical to be true. —Magdalena Grovebright I am certain your scientific mind appreciates an alphabetical order, divided into aarakocra and kenku, rather than a chronological retelling, so I went ahead and did the heavy lifting for you and sorted it all out. At this moment in time, I am not certain what has become of Magdalena Grovebright, but I am confident that a sellsword of her expertise is currently on another adventure in a far away kingdom. May the gust of the winds always lift you up. —Archimedes Quill Sample file Magdalena Grovebright & Dagger It seems when Kwii’s kin came to this plane, they saw Baldurian Owl the plight of the downtrodden and knew that they could help. Now they dedicate themselves to Selûne, having a The Baldurian Owls have a soft spot for creatures that fondness for those who are cursed to wander the night.

    Dungeons&Dragons Collectors Checklist by Richard © 2001, version 2.7 Well met and welcome to the Collectors Checklist! I made this checklist for myself to keep track of what TSR products I own. Many times was I in the position to photocopy (“Xerox”) a module or booklet that the owner didn’t wish to sell. So gradually my collection expanded with not only genuine products but also with photocopies. Since the coming of the officially digitized classic products (PDF) it is even harder to keep track of what product you own in what format. With the Collectors Checklist you will be able to sort your whole Dungeons&Dragons collection, no matter what the format is! For those out there who haven’t got a clue, here’s how to use the Collectors Checklist: TSR-Code : The product’s publishing code Sub-Code : When a product belongs to a specific group of products it carries this code Title : The product’s title (dah!) Hardcopy : Check this if you have the original item Copy : Check this if you have a copy (Xeroxcopy for instance) of the original product PDF : Check this if you have a digital copy(.pdf/.doc/etc.) of the original product HINT: you can even write down the number when you own more than one copy of a product ; ) If you think any items are missing, please mail me at [email protected] . Feel free to copy/share/print this list. Please visit these websites for the best Dungeons&Dragons archives on the Internet : http://www.acaeum.com http://home.flash.net/~brenfrow/index.htm .
