About These Logs

You can go directly to the detailed index of the logs, start at the first log, check out an alternate theme-based index, or jump directly to the most recent section of the logs. These logs join the run in progress, at the same time that I joined the run.

These logs probably contain some form of bias, due to the fact that I'm playing in the run. Ilkandacian is my character, so his actions tend to be either extremely detailed (I wrote a rough draft of that week's log the day after the run when it's all fresh in my memory) or very crude (I didn't expand my notes out soon enough and forgot most of the details), since it's hard to take notes and run at the same time.

I have lists of the PCs and NPCs referred to in these logs. I've been trying to keep up with hotlinking every relevant person-name to their description, but keep falling behind. I've recently written a perl script to convert a log from the "text draft" format to the "DRAFT" format, which takes care of adding hyperlinks for most of the names, so many of the DRAFT logs are only awaiting a third party review before I consider them to be completed. If you find any broken links or typographical or grammatical errors, please send me mail and point them out. If you're a player in the run, and want to expand on some of the actions, correct a factual error, or give me a public-info blurb for your character so I can add it to the description, please do so.

For a while I was building timelines for each of the player chacters, to make it simpler to track a single character's actions between the logs. Unfortunately, most of the currently active characters have become too complex to track, as Ilkandacian, Norton, and Cailin have all acquired duplicates at one point or another, and Jean is now ubiquitous throughout shadow. Once I get caught up on the backlog of incomplete logs, I'd like to write a script to dynamically assemble a collection of log sections containing a given character within a certain time range. But that requires more complete logs, and fewer non-html-formatted logs. I've also tried accumulating quotes on a separate page.

The GM and some of the other players have also placed run information on the web. You can view the Amber family tree and the current status of the Courts of Chaos, read Malachai's journals, which cover much of the run before I joined, visit the House Jesby, poke through Celeste's Memoirs, or read a shadow of Jean's coloring book.
