|
I've recently taken it upon myself to expand the scope of the Atlantic Wiki, however finding material has been difficult lately, as most out of game resources have been scribed to the pages of the Wiki already.
However, with the advent of some new resources, transporting knowledge from in game to the Wiki has become a possibility.
With that said, I am in the process of copying every single book from our community library, The Grand Britannian Repertory, to the Atlantic Wiki. This will more than likely take several weeks, if not more. I will provide updates and information in this thread as the collection grows, and as always, feel free to contribute.
To start off, I've posted around 50% of the information from the "Dark Lore" shelves. These books can now be seen under the subcategory of the Wiki "Dark Lore"
Enjoy. _________________ "There are those who dream to escape reality, and there are those who dream to change it."

As long as people recognize this isn't IC knowledge of these texts. There for us to have as a reference. Not give your character understanding of things they haven't seen.
Not that it matters particular in many cases as a lot of the stuff is just dark prose.
Good work anyway, Halister. _________________ Femmies?! HOWAH!

Anything on the Wiki is definitely not transferable to IC knowledge.
This is primarily to conserve and secure these books, due to the constant turnover and loss of libraries in game.
For example, if Darrien happens to perish while trying to apply glitter while driving to a Hanna Montana concert, this would ensure that even if the library falls, the books will remain with us. _________________ "There are those who dream to escape reality, and there are those who dream to change it." |

If Darrien dies while trying to apply glitter while driving to anything besides a Lady Gaga concert in the near future, that is how I know it will be a set up and he is alive in some underground catacomb in the Vatican. Possibly attempting to restart the Knights Templar. _________________ Femmies?! HOWAH!

You can drop off all new books in the Mailbox infront of the library. |

I just gave them to Izrem, I'm not sure if our guild has a system for submitting new books to the main community library. But what I mean is for Halister to add them to the website, it'd make sense for me to paste the text so he doesn't have to transcribe it from the IG book. |

LOL awesome, some of these I wrote to sell off my old vendor in Gypsy Crossroads. Ashlath the Fiend is one of my faves from the creative times. |
