AMIA ARCHIVE :: View topic - How to start on Amia

Cordor is big and you can get lost quite easily. You should keep one thing in mind: it is inspired by the city of Venice, with its Canal Grande. There's a big canal dividing Cordor, and it's not always possible to cross it. The best way to learn to know the city is taking a job at Speedies' Messenger Services. You can find it East of the Temple of Waukeen, the place where you went to after the mirror's dialogue. Speedies' errants will bring you to each of the 4 districts of Cordor (and get you to your 3rd level in a painless way).

Assuming you are sensible and not a pathological crook you probably haven't much need for the rules, safe for the occasional browse. The short version is what you find in your ingame journal. Expanded rules are found in the sidebar and the Rules & Lore forum. The latter is something between an archeological dig, goldmine, and maze. We really should be better administrators, but we aren't.

Reminders to self & staff: find the Cordor map. Cordor info in R&L needs a BIG update. The Duke is still in charge. DM Edit - Tormak: Did a bit of fussing. I suggest Yossarin poke around in there.

I think this is more or less what I wanted to put in there. I miss a few things, for example: what's a Dream Coin? Can't find that anywhere, just how many you need for what kinda requests. Comments?

Save. But otherwise it's good. Gave me a warm and welcomed feeling when I read it.

Totally can't see the blood relations, can you? Anyway, looks good. Right amount of self-irony there. One more misspell: it's deities, not dieties. Under Special Systems.

I did not access the links provided on the main post. So, pardon if this already happened. Anyway! Concerning maps, will you place the most recent Amian maps somewhere in the forums? I saved the one made by Jaq, that is only of Amia, and yours, that is placing Amia and Amia Abroad in a Map of Faerun. Do you need them, or do you already have them?

Yeah, send 'em. ImageShack has been very erratic lately.

Disco, do you think there could/need be mention of the naming rules on the guide?
