Brian S. Stephan 1d0d489ad2
remove a lot of the OG extra content and similar references
these are things that are not included in my version because they're
homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity that I don't feel
comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on

this includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my
own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying
verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't
need to advocate for a different one

-**Editor's Notes ---** There are a few suspected misprints in the *Old Gods of Appalachia* types:
-
-**Protector**
-
-- *First-Tier Protector* [(OGOA, 27)]{.og-ref}. The Protector is the only type where listed starting equipment
- explicitly states the PC begins the game with two [cyphers](#choose-cyphers) (chosen for you by the GM) and 2
- dollars. If this is the case, the GM should provide all PCs a few cyphers and appropriate
- [currency](#equipment-currency-and-prices).
-
-- *Fourth-Tier Protector* [(OGOA, 29)]{.og-ref}. The *Practiced with All Weapons* [(OGOA, 30)]{.og-ref} ability serves
- no purpose for the Protector type, and was probably meant to be a *Fourth-Tier Sage* [(OGOA, 30)]{.og-ref} or
- *Fourth-Tier Speaker* [(OGOA, 57)]{.og-ref} ability. If the GM agrees, these types can choose this ability instead.
-
-- *Fifth-Tier Protector* [(OGOA, 30)]{.og-ref}. If the GM agrees, the [Arc Spray](#ability-arc-spray){.og-ability}
- [(110)]{.og-ref} ability makes a suitable replacement for *Practiced with All Weapons* [(OGOA, 30)]{.og-ref}. This
- option should only be used if rapid-fire weapons are available. Revolvers might qualify as early as 1840. Rapid-fire
- long guns would become available by 1870, but would not be widely available---especially for civilian use---until
- after 1920.
-
-**Sage**
-
-- *Second-Tier Sage* [(OGOA, 36)]{.og-ref}. The *Weapons* [(OGOA, 37)]{.og-ref} ability allows a Sage to become
- practiced with light [weapons](#equipment-weapons), indicating a set of missing inabilities with all weapons under
- *First-Tier Sage* [(OGOA, 35)]{.og-ref}, which should read as follows:
-
- **Weapons:** You have an inability with light, medium, and heavy weapons; your attacks with these weapons are
- hindered.
