start rebuilding my solo character, in case I use it

I'm treating this as a campaign summary and primer for a 13th Age game
I'm hoping to start in the coming weeks. this isn't complete yet, but
it's far enough along that I want to commit and push it in order to
refer to it in other contexts while I finish up the rest of it

+# Aldfric "Silver" Gauveld (Human Rogue 1)
+
+Silver is a former assassin, reformed after facing the ramifications of his conduct, a rehabilitation incidentally
+associated with a prolonged incarceration. His moral code may be a bit unique and personal, but he has given up the
+murder-for-hire business and is trying to do something "better" after seeing the suffering of many, though doing so
+sometimes initially conflicts with his natural cynicism. He doesn't apply his services for hire anymore, at least.

+### Ability Scores

+
+### One Unique Thing
+
+Silver occasionally sees images of a person's past or future self when looking at them.
+
+### Icon Relationships
+
+* **Positive w/Prince of Shadows** (1): Silver is one of "the Prince's people", believing even after reformation that
+  he is influencing the world for the better as the Prince would see fit.
+* **Conflicted w/Emperor** (1): technically, it's "Duke Aldfric Gauveld" via hereditary peerage. Silver tries not to
+  deploy this fact unless he has to, and maybe it's better he doesn't, as him and the Emperor don't exactly see
+  eye-to-eye.
+* **Negative w/Lich King** (1): Silver has seen enough death, he doesn't need undead reminders, especially of his own
+  deeds.
+
+### Backgrounds
+
+* **Reformed thief and assassin** (4): Silver spent plenty of time in the dark parts of the criminal underground,
+  before getting caught.
+* **Well-traveled information seeker** (4): Silver's work has taken him to many civilized (and not-so-civilized)
+  areas, and he always tries to remember where to get information.
+
+### Combat Stats

+* **AC:** 15, **PD:** 14, **MD:** 13
+* **Recoveries** (8): 1d8+1

+* **Sneak Attack:** rogue melee weapon attack against an enemy engaged with one or more allies deals bonus damage.
+    * **Adv. Feat:** Sneak Attack also works against enemies who are [many temporary conditions including dazed].
+* **Skulduggery:** two uses per arc, reroll a failed skill roll involving rogue things, a second use + narration for a

+* **Murderous:** +2 crit range against staggered enemies.
+* **Tumble:** +3 bonus to disengage checks, can disengage check as a free action to avoid an intercept.
+    * **Adv. Feat:** +ED to disengage checks.

+# Age of Parted Shadow
+
+[TOC]
+
+|> [![Map of the island of Wald](wald.png)](wald.png)
+|: The island of Wald.
+{: .right }
+
+Age of Parted Shadow is a [13th Age](../13th-age/index.md) points of light campaign set on the island of Wald, an
+ancient land doomed multiple times over in previous ages and currently in a state of tenuous rebuild. As is all of the
+world of [Etravar](../etravar/index.md), the island's history is lost to the current age, and built on top of forgotten
+cultures and buried ruins. The pockets of civilization that do exist are marred by delicate order and weak alliances,
+clinging to prosperity while scraping together defenses against trouble from the many uncharted regions that are still
+home to brigands, monsters, cults, and beyond.
+
+13th Age is a game of action-centric tactical combats and player-driven narrative agency. Adventures in the Age of
+Parted Shadow are likely to be about exploring the unknown and tugging at ancient mysteries, or thwarting the many
+threats that put the island of Wald at risk of ruin or collapse. 13th Age is a game of dynamic narrative determined at
+the table by way of backgrounds and icon relationships, so the particulars of the emerging threat(s) taking center stage
+will be determined during play.
+
+**Current status: [RECRUITING](recruitment.md)**
+
+## Icons of Wald
+
+There are nine powerful icons in the Age of Parted Shadow that make up the milieu of conflict across the island. Players
+choose relationships between their character and the icons, and these relationships create the foundation of how the
+character relates to the overall world.
+
+None of the icons benefit from a particular power or advantage over any of the others, for now (though the campaign may
+likely become about how that balance changes!). The core icons from the 13th Age rulebook/setting are listed next to the
+icons of Wald in order to approximate a mapping between the published icons and ours, in the event a class feature or
+magic item or similar refers to the core icons. These mappings are not absolute, however, and it shouldn't be assumed
+that any particular element of the 13th Age icons shows up in the Wald icon it is mapped to.
+
+| Icon                   | 13A Icon(s)                                | Theme(s)               | Alignment[^1]   |
+|------------------------|--------------------------------------------|------------------------|-----------------|
+| **The Abyssal Mother** | The Diabolist                              | Disorder               | Chaotic Evil    |
+| **The Beastlord**      | The Orc Lord[^2]                           | Violence               | Chaotic Neutral |
+| **The Five**           | The Three                                  | Dominance              | Neutral Evil    |
+| **The Gold Regent**    | The Emperor, the Dwarf King, the Elf Queen | Unity                  | Neutral Good    |
+| **The Grand Druid**    | The High Druid                             | Balance, natural order | Chaotic Good    |
+| **The Gray Sorceress** | The Archmage, the Prince of Shadows[^3]    | Manipulation           | True Neutral    |
+| **The Hierophant**     | The Priestess, the Great Gold Wyrm         | Devotion               | Lawful Good     |
+| **The Warlord**        | The Crusader                               | Conquest               | Lawful Neutral  |
+| **The Timeless**       | The Lich King                              | Corruption             | Lawful Evil     |
+
+[^1]: The game does not use alignment, so this is just a general reference point. The lines are meant to be blurry, and
+    the * Neutral icons are ones that only rarely, if ever, fall on the "good" side of the line.
+[^2]: Our actively marauding analogue to the Orc Lord is not dead as the Orc Lord of canon is.
+[^3]: The Gray Sorceress manifests the mysterious and clandestine nature of the Prince of Shadows's manipulative ways.
+    Thieves and assassins could be associated with many of the other icons; the Gray Sorceress is above petty larceny
+    and simple murder.
+
+### The Abyssal Mother
+
+The Abyssal Mother, a humanoid female not unlike a tiefling, is the herald of the hell-worlds of the Abyss responsible
+for the spawning of demons and devils that threaten everything in Wald. Her role, leading the id of the Abyss such as it
+is, puts her somewhere between being a demonic conductor and struggling just to point the demonic wave in the right
+direction. She might embody pure chaos, or she might have an agenda of her own, but her control over the hells is
+incomplete; she'd be an even bigger threat if she managed to get the demon lords or the Abyss itself under her clawed
+thumb.
+
+### The Beastlord
+
+A massive shapeshifter who delights in the thrill of the hunt no matter the quarry, he and his unorganized clans torment
+the entire island, especially any semblence of civilization. He has no allies, but his ravagers keep his enemies in
+check --- for now. While some of his followers care only so far as satiating their bloodlust, he enjoys a healthy
+representation among those who are willing to look the other way or reintepret an ethos based largely on killing those
+weaker than oneself.
+
+### The Five
+
+Five ancient chromatic dragons, perhaps the oldest living things in all of Wald. They slumber in hidden lairs, bound by
+a curse from a past age. Their dreams influence and tempt all creatures, but especially dragons, poisoning their minds
+with hunger for power and dominance. If the Five rose from their slumber and managed to ally with each other, their
+might would hand them all of Wald.
+
+### The Gold Regent
+
+Leading --- nominally --- a group of lords, mayors, and royalty representing major regions and cities across Wald, the
+Gold Regent holds together a loose alliance with a shared goal of maintaining trade and peace for their respective
+peoples. Staying allied is considerably easier said than done, especially as it relates to the proud dwarves and aloof
+elves. Technically, the alliance spans from the underground dwarven kingdoms to the deepest elven forests, but everyone
+knows that it rests on a knife's edge.
+
+### The Grand Druid
+
+Holding the highest rank among all circles of druids, the current Grand Druid is a half-elf woman determined to protect
+the lands of Wald and prevent the overreach of civilization. She maintains lukewarm relations with the Gold Regent ---
+aligned in dark times such as these, but at odds in their philosophies. Living dungeons being understood as a natural
+(but warped) occurrence, it's unclear if the Grand Druid opposes or secretly endorses them.
+
+### The Gray Sorceress
+
+A long-lived and powerful spellcaster unknown to most, with an interest in maintaining Wald's advancement --- as she
+interprets it, anyway. The Gray Sorceress's true name is unknown; she is currently inhabiting the body of a human woman,
+advancing her schemes by subterfuge or direct intervention in Wald's affairs, treating any capable individuals or groups
+as pawns. She has few agents, but attracts followers and enemies alike when her schemes and manipulation become known.
+
+### The Hierophant
+
+A righteous human blessed by the gods and goddesses of light, his influence crosses many concerns over the pantheon, and
+he is also the superintendent of the Holy Order, a broad organization of holy warriors seeking to further the
+advancement of the light, however difficult that is to accomplish in this age. His leadership is both organizational and
+spiritual, though he cannot attend to all of the details of the holy bureaucracy.
+
+### The Warlord
+
+An amoral king and chosen of the gods and goddesses of darkness, the Warlord's thirst for dominion over of all of Wald
+is tempered, for now, by his campaign against the demons, undead, and other forces seeking to ruin the world he would
+claim as his own. As his dark gods continue to empower him and his armies, he may move on his aspirations.
+
+### The Timeless
+
+A lich whose true name and history have been lost to the centuries, the Timeless is followed and revered for his arcane
+power and access to terrible magic otherwise forgotten or shunned in the current age. Lost civilizations hold more
+secrets and yield more undead to scour the land, so the Timeless's followers are common to ruins. His cults, more
+prevalent than admitted, operate openly in the isolation of the wild and in secret in the graveyards and catacombs of
+cities.
+
+## The Island of Wald
+
+|> [![Map of the island of Wald](wald.png)](wald.png)
+|: The world map of the island of Wald. Note that this includes only major cities and features of the island; with many towns, keeps, dungeons, hellholes, forests, camps, lakes, and so on left to fill as the campaign progresses. In this sense, it doubles as the baseline of what anyone in-game would know about the map of Wald.
+{: .full-width }
+
+In prior ages, Wald was largely explored, mostly understood, and heavily settled. This age, all of that is lost --- the
+Wald of the Age of Parted Shadow is generally mapped but largely unexplored, at least concretely. There are few major
+cities, and the scattered towns and villages come and go without warning. A general route spanning from east to west
+exists, but it is especially rough and vague on the western half of the island. The southern peninsula is even less
+welcoming to land travel as most visitors come in to its cities via the sea known as the Mouth. Countless settlements
+are scattered throughout the island.
+
+All of that said, there are eight settlements large enough and stable enough to be considered Wald's major cities:
+
+* **Bladesdale** --- the center of trade in eastern Wald, situated conveniently enough between Hydra Pass
+  and Prism to the north, and Silver Port and NAME HERE across the sea to the south. The closest Wald has to a capital
+  city, the Gold Regent holds court here.
+* **Coldhill**
+* **Gale**
+* **Hydra Pass**, aka the Gateway to the West, aka the End of Civilization (to those better off in the east) --- a major
+  trading hub and thoroughfare, nestled among Many-Heads, and the only major establishment near the Great Wastes.
+* **Silver Port**
+* **Last Chance**, as in "the Last Chance to turn around" --- a cosmopolitan city of brigands, outcasts, monstrous
+  humanoids, the occasional good-natured soul, and the like, Last Chance attracts all variety of unconventional
+  civilization due to its remoteness and adjacency to Blackmarsh.
+* **Onyx** --- the Warlord's kingdom originated in Onyx, his most significant fortress which also serves as his castle
+  and seat of power. Below it is an elaborate system drawing water from an underground lake, and Onyx is said to drill
+  even deeper into the underworld.
+* **Prism**
+
+And, the most significant (un)natural features of Wald:
+
+* **The Forest of Misfortune** --- a thick and ancient wood, it's believed this was once the stronghold of the elves.
+  Certainly they are more represented there than elsewhere, but the forest is now known more for its ancient and failing
+  magic wards that thwart, entrap, and confuse travelers. Suspicious-minded folks suspect elves are immune to this
+  magic.
+* **Many-Heads** --- a nearly impassible mountain range, dense with impressive peaks and treacherous mountain faces,
+  with only one rough path through the range. Hydra Pass maintains some amount of order on the path, enough to defend
+  travelers from casual threats, but many dangers and secrets reside deeper in the mountains.
+* **The Mouth** --- a relatively calm sea, the Mouth sees healthy trade between the cities and towns on its coast. Many
+  small islands dot the sea and attract pirates and predators. The large island to the east, entering the Mouth, is
+  heavily contested by traders, pirates, and various monsters, and particularly chaotic.

+# Age of Parted Shadow Recruitment
+
+Hello! I (bss) am starting up [Age of Parted Shadow](index.md), a 13th Age game. 13th Age is my favorite D&D-like, and
+if you are familiar with D&D 4e especially, you will find a lot of familiar components and approaches in the game, but
+with less tactical combat minutiae and more collaborative player-driven storytelling. It's a game of heroic action
+combat supported by freeform narrative mechanics. I think it makes for awesome fantasy adventuring.
+
+|> [![Map of the island of Wald](wald.png)](wald.png)
+|: Where we'll be playing.
+{: .right }
+
+Information about the game and world can be found on the Age of Parted Shadow page linked above. Below I have some notes
+for how I see getting the game together. If you are interested in joining the game or have questions or anything, you've
+probably already let me know, but as we get closer to "ready to play", I will be building some long-term places for us
+to communicate and play.
+
+## Gameplay
+
+**Probable venue: Foundry Virtual Tabletop.**
+
+I have a Foundry VTT server running on my own infrastructure, along with a LiveKit subscription for (hopefully)
+convenient audio/visual conferencing. 13th Age does not need a battle map, but does benefit from one, and I think this
+arrangement will sufficiently cover live play. I would have the server running and allowing connections for a while
+before and after our scheduled game time, for people to make level up adjustments, check things, remember what we were
+doing, and so on.
+
+Note: I am choosing not to use Discord for A/V (or chat, see below) for a variety of reasons. If we literally can't get
+anything in Foundry VTT or Mumble or whatever to work, it's an option, but I am trying to avoid it.
+
+If everyone ends up being local, I would be open to playing in my basement. The gaming table seats six, and there's
+generally plenty of room to congregate. However, I'm expecting this might be a bit more convenient if we're playing
+online, obviously so if some of you are not in "the area". I don't think I'd try to do a mix of in-person and remote, it
+tends to be a headache unless someone here happens to be an expert at teleconferencing production.
+
+## Scheduling
+
+**Proposed time: Wednesday evenings (Central Time), biweekly.**
+
+Here's the sad truth: my schedule is pretty limited between work and kids and other obligations. The #1 option for me
+right now is Wednesday evenings, US Central time. Monday evenings might work, but they would have to be alternating with
+my other gaming group, and Friday evenings have an off chance of working but are prone to conflicts on my side. Tuesday
+and Thursday evenings are difficult and more time-constrained but not quite excluded, but the weekends are all but
+certainly excluded except as a one-off or maybe where we can put major events.
+
+When letting me know if you're interested, please include schedule info.
+
+## Organization and Downtime Discussion
+
+**Probable venue: mailing list or forum.**
+
+I'm guessing that this game may be spread across multiple of my circles, so we'll need to settle somewhere in order to
+coordinate and confirm sessions, talk about post-game things, let the group know about conflicts, and so on. This
+function especially I do not like walling this behind Discord, and I don't plan on making a Discord instance for A/V, so
+we need to pick something. I see some options for this, in no particular order other than my general outlook:
+
+* **Mailing list** --- I run mailing list software already, and it generally gets to recipients just fine. It's the low
+  tech option that people still kind of know how to work with.
+* **Forum** --- I don't currently run a forum to organize on, but if people wanted a post-based experience without using
+  email, I could see what I can scare up. It'd pretty much be just for this purpose, however. Or, I don't mind using
+  someone else's forum for this purpose, if such a thing exists.
+* **IRC** --- I also run an IRC network where I have a couple games organized and even ran over; IRC is tough to use
+  satisfactorily for some, I will admit, but I have options to make it more convenient. IRC conversations are great, but
+  the alternatives might be a bit more natural to folks --- I may make a channel for chit-chat regardless.
+
+Let me know what you think.
+
+## Logs, Journals, etc.
+
+**Probable repository: here, also a wiki?**
+
+This website is backed by a Git repo, and it's simple for me to let folks contribute to it in Markdown or plain text
+format. That's easy (for me) but a bit manual and probably not everyone's preferred way to collect stuff. If folks would
+like a wiki, I'm open to running one (probably DokuWiki) or using someone else's (as long as it's easy to use).

 ## Tools and Standards
 
 Jotting down things I'm using for the campaign that haven't yet become part of my "normal" process, such as it is, but
 might in the future.
 
+### Cypher Tables
+
+Treat all cypher types as manifest by default. Roll a d20 and use that result for which table to roll on (they're all
+built as percentile tables, so you can roll a d20 and a d100 for both together).
+
+| Roll   | Origin/Type              |
+|--------|--------------------------|
+| 1--4   | *Core*/Manifest (p.382)  |
+| 5--7   | *Core*/Subtle (p.383)    |
+| 8--11  | *Godforsaken* (p.141)    |
+| 12--20 | *Core*/Fantastic (p.384) |
+
+Most instances work in the game and could be represented as at least one kind of physical item, or roll on the cypher
+form table in *Godforsaken* (which would be a combined roll of d20; d100; d100).
+
