ABOUT THE ANNOTATED TIMELINE AND CAMPAIGN JOURNAL
The idea here is to have an easy to use reference for all of us, one that shows where we've been, helps point to where we're going, or might go, in addition to occasionally dropping some full fledged journal type entries in when needed (like Zaituc's mission briefing for tracking down his granddaughter). As a player, I've been in a couple of games PbP games on GP where we needed to go back through old pages and posts, sifting, looking for important details (a prophesy with some important clues to find direction, or what some NPC said about some other character, etc). The Annotated Timeline and Journal seeks to rectify that problem and make our enjoyment of Dark Thrones streamlined. Also, the longer we play, the more it will simply serve as a cool history of what we've done.
FORMAT
Based on the The Nadrilian-Yuoric Calendar (see below). I'll start new threads for new months, typically using one post to mark a given day, with additional posts per day as needed (the 'journal part' of this reference, making sure thorough notes on important info is easy to find).
Dates and useful (LINK)s will connect to their proper reference page.
Blue text will highlight NPC's, Factions and similar entities.
Green text will highlight locations.
Red text will highlight items of interest (potential plot threads, noteworthy events, curiosities, etc).
