Welcome to Candlekeep, the greatest repository of knowledge in the world!
Your mission, should you choose to accept the invitation to this campaign: In advance of our first game, please create a level one character. Add the following to your backstory: You have come to Candlekeep on a quest for information, perhaps to solve a crisis somewhere, or help a family member, or seek glory. Please also identify a book to bring, as the required entrance fee for admission into Candlekeep is a work of writing not already collected therein. Those who show up at the gates without such a gift are kindly but firmly turned away. The adventure will begin as you stand in line before the gates of the city, offering in hand.
