THE DELVER'S TOME

Sorting & clarity...

Scholarly administration has seen clarity and order delivered upon the pages...

​

​

Couple of changes made recently - I've totally redone how I want to present Profile data, starting with the official Races initially but this will be rolled out across Professions aswell to keep things uniform. I think it looks alot cleaner albeit the Race portraits have been removed (atleast for now).

​

Additionally, I was finding the completion of content a chore when I have so many ideas floating around in my head and on scraps of paper, so I've decided to release a "Dispatches" page that basically blogs the ideas that I have in whatever shape or stage of development they are in.

​

It will help keep ideas evolving and hopefully reduce the time between website updates as I won't be restrained to only post up completed and in-theme content.

​

Here's hoping! :)

The Pages are heavy set...

The ink dries and the pages become burdened again with their content...

​

​

I've opted to remove the swathe of anchors deployed on the Races & Professions pages and throughout the site as a whole as these appeared to impact loading times and gerneral site performance which far outweigh the navigational benefits that the anchors delivered.

A new Adventurer sets upon the path - a outcast and ally alike

Many are the foes and few are the friends of the much maligned Seer. Do you seek the aid of a Harbinger upon your lofty quest?

Added a custom Profession profile of my Witcher inspired role for the game, with custom backstory, role-restricted items and base-magic options created in-line with existing ingame items and fashioned into a custom Advancement table.

​

Added details of the effects and descriptions of the Hex magic to the Arcana Chapter aswell and a link from the Profession page to the section of Chapter 5.

​

Seek battle!

Turn thy page swiftly...

The pages of this dedicated book have been enhanced and embued with a modicum of navigable haste...

​

+++

​

Added links from the Contents page to all Chapters translated thus far, additionally Chapter sub-titles have also been linked to anchors in the respective places per page. This makes the Contents page a good jump of point for all content and not just a list of Chapters to be read/referenced.

​

Whilst anchors have been included for sub-titles and sub-sections per page to make navigation from the Contents page and within a page easier, they have also been extensively deployed in Chapters that contain Profile information, to enhance finding and moving between the most commonly referenced areas on these pages.

​

The anchor menu is available on the far right-hand side of every page, just look for the vertical column of coloured circles.

Translations on Magic commence...
