Hi.
Funny, when I registered last year, there was no capture.
I'm sure the gm would be quite happy about either removing the capture or
creating accounts for people if you send him an E-mail, ----- certainly it'd
be nice to see more people on the forum.
His address is [email protected] if you'd like to contact him yourself
about an account, ---- though I'll let him know about this too.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.

I tried to register today, but unfortunately, they have a captcha that
webvisum doesn't even see, so unfortunately that idea fell flat on its
little face. Pity, though, because it seemed like so much fun. I love
roleplaying, and especially this kind, with lots of fantasy in it.
Helena in Sweden, more than slightly disappointed

Hello Sarah.
this is an interesting question in itself, and I'll ask about it on the
arborell forum, ----- that's unless you'd like to register there and ask
yourself (the arborell Gm is a really nice chap who's always willing to
answer questions).
Windhammer was the first gamebook, and thus might be an ideal place to
start.
The inquisitor's lament is a short novella about one character from
Windhammer, telling what happens to him while the hero of windhammer goes
off on the main quest, ---- so certainly I'd advise having a look at
windhammer first.
The various Jotten related material, ie the book of scars and the Shards
of moonlight gamebook (pluss the murder of crows gamebook which is next
on the release schedule), are about the hoardim. While the hoardim are
seen as the enemy in Windhammer ---- and by the humans of Arborell, they
very much have their own point of view and while not exactly nice and
fluffy aren't precisely evil.
I believe the second major gamebook, ---- earth and stone will bring the
human and hordim characters together.
these are all the materials which are set around the year 950, ---- the
other on site materials are background set before this time.
The recently release Sorrows of gehdru and aume is the creation story of
Arborell.
Song of the dromannian is the story of how humans journeyed across the
sea from their own lands to the continent of Arborell in the year of
settlement 0.
The torchlight game happens in about the year 450, and tells how one of
the artifacts which later and concerns the background of one of the magic
artifacts found in the Windhammer book.
The blood and Iron series takes place in year of settlement 500 or so,
and is a story about one of the hoard wars.
Hopefully this helps you relate things.
Everything is very well explained and placed so you can almost go in any
order, ---- though personally I'd recommend playing windhammer before
moving on either to Torchlight or Shards of moonlight, but if you wanted
to read some of the background material before playing windhammer, ----
or even as a break from windhammer attempts, I'd say everything accept
for the inquisitor's lament (which is actually about one of the
windhammer characters), should be fine.
hth.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
