The Campaign
NoteBook is used to track plot lines and keep notes for future
plans. You can organize the ongoing plot threads of your campaign and add
quick notes to be developed further at a later date. As a player, you can
track your character's accomplishments as the adventure progresses, building
an indexed log of the campaign. When writing a module to be exported and distributed,
the Campaign NoteBook is the organizing core from which all other DA
NoteBooks are referenced. This makes it easy for users to run an imported
DA adventure just like a conventionally published module.
The Character
NoteBook is used to keep track of NPCs. The NPCs can be associated
with either the Campaign or the Setting - or even a specific entry within
the Setting NoteBook - and are available whenever the appropriate one is selected.
It is a simple matter to add a character and a few quick notes. A chance meeting
with a random NPC can provide a recurring character, without having to shuffle
through pages of notes looking for something that you jotted down a week,
a month, or even a year ago. As a player, you can add a few notes about every
interesting NPC that you meet, and quickly reference them down the line if
they show up again.
The Setting
NoteBook is used to record setting information. Like a cyclopedia
for a conventionally published setting, the Setting NoteBook contains information
about the locations, cultures, peoples, history, and background of a campaign
setting. You can use it to add depth to your world by organizing ideas and
setting information, and being able to quickly locate any desired entry. As
a player, you can keep track of the places that you've been, making it easy
to recall details when you return.
