    It's been a bit, GitP. If you're reading this, you're either digging through old stuff, or I've posted for the first time in forever.

    If you want to stay in touch, reach out to me on twitter (same username).

    The best answer is always to ask your DM.
    Unless you're the DM, in which case you should talk to your players.

    Yes, but I remember them being accused of that because of reasons not pertaining to witchcraft.

    Well, it seems one of the first steps would be to make a list of all the known codices. Then have each of those link to a separate page for each codex. Each of those would contain a list of known abilities and members. The known members would then have descriptions or link to their own page depending on importance/information known about them. Also it would likely be a good idea to have information such as first known appearance and the like for each of those things and have it link to the appropriate page.
    (I'd be working on doing the above right now if I were able, but lack the permissions...)

    I would like to suggest the following format for pages on each of the codices as they show up (I'm currently working on the Lunar Codex page, and plan to do the All-Seeing Codex next). I'll point out that it is in wiki text mode, not the auto format thing.

    Basic description of codex

    Your right, you can also see a book made up by H.P. Lovecraft that is said to have been written by a mad Arab.

    The Lunar Codex seems mostly finished, though it it might be able to use being flushed out.

    Also, it might be handy to change the theme. This seems to require a logo image of size 150x150 pixels or smaller (140X48 recommended) among other things.

    Edit: All-Seeing Codex is also mostly up to date. Like the Lunar it could use some work to flush it out. Might have also missed some of the Pages from the flashback or that have only been mentioned.
