'''Welcome to the Wiki!

Welcome to the newly improved West Marches Wiki! The aim is to make this space an all-encompassing resource for our current, and hopefully future, D&D campaigns.

Here you will find interesting pieces of lore about the world of The West Marches. Most of the historical information contained in this wiki serves to portray general knowledge an adventurer may have about the world, in which they reside. Content will be added to the wiki as the campaign progresses, and as our guild-members encounter new information about the world.

You will find included in this wiki are some articles about our player characters. These articles allow you to really explore and expand upon your PC's background, personality, appearance, etc. You are free to create and edit your own character pages; include as much information as you want. Remember, a well developed character provides more content for our DM to draw upon. The surprise of encountering an engrossing story based on a PC's past can really add to the enjoyment of the game.

The wiki also has a 'Tales' category. These are pages that contain short stories set within the game world. Here you will find narratives recounting events that occur "off-screen" and away from the game table. These tales may be based on events prior to the campaign (e.g. character backstories); or may be used to express the thoughts and/or actions of characters between sessions. We hope that these stories will add another role-playing element to the game, and serve as further opportunity to really flesh out this setting as a living and breathing world.

We further hope to add a running log of each game session to supplement our current "bounty board" notes system. This will allow players to access a brief overview of the campaign at any time; as opposed to waiting for their next session to check the board.

Finally, this discussion board can be used to raise any ideas, questions and/or concerns you have about our campaign or the wiki. If you are not confident in creating and editing your own page, you can always post here with your ideas and we can put them up for you.

The success of the wiki ultimately relies on the contributions of its members. So please, if you have any ideas for your character or the campaign don't hesitate to share them!
