Riassunto

Dear adventurer,
It is our belief that this is one of the most important texts you will read should you plan to adventure in Gwelf. Once more our dear Wilburton sets off on adventure in Gwelf, but this time he ventures into the North into the territory of the Ravens. As adventures often do, this voyage strays from it's original path and this book details our hero's survival. Wilburton embarks on research, off-road trekking through the Farm- and Scrublands, and hails at Border Fort XI where he first sets paw outside Sparrowkind's territory. Research is all well-and-good, dear adventurer, it is in experience that true wisdom lies. Wilburton, ccompanied by a guide, a scout, a medic, and an exorcist encouters the wilds of the North and it's inhabitants, the Rats and Ravens of the Boreals. If you plan to voyage beyond the Border Forts, we beseech you to scour this text for within it may lie the key to your own survival...

Informazioni sull?autore

Larry MacDougall entered the commercial art world approximately thirty years ago and has been very busy ever since. He began working for gaming publishers, contributing work to many projects in the Dungeons and Dragons, fantasy tabletop role playing vein. Larry was content with this work for many years but gradually the games began to take on a violent and darker tone. This is when he decided to leave the gaming world and cross over to children’s publishing where he illustrated many books for publishers both in Canada and abroad. For the last fifteen years, Larry has been working as an animation designer, book illustrator, environment and character designer for games, and fine artist making personal art for private clients. He has also been dreaming up the world of Gwelf.
Now he is taking a step further along on that adventure and inviting you to come along.

Our first foray into tourism publications, the book Gwelf: The Survival Guide, saw our intrepid author and artist Wilburton Fox share the delights of the capital city and the Farmlands. His information about the dangers in the Scrublands and beyond were very minimal because his own exploits there were quite restricted. We did the responsible thing, and post-publication we did indeed enjoy meeting so many travellers from beyond the Grande River. Most who have come have heeded our warnings and enjoyed a wonderful time within the City of Gwelf and the Farmlands.

However, there lives an adventurous spirit here in Gwelf and it inhabits many visitors as well. So, after much discussion amongst ourselves, several learned Sparrow colleagues, and the mayors of the major Scrublands villages, it was decided that we should commission Wilburton to create a companion volume with more focus on the Scrublands and what lies beyond. An adventurer’s guide distributed for the benefit of those with the skill and determination to voyage beyond the friendly Farmlands. Wilburton jumped at the chance a little too eagerly.

What lies between these two covers is not exactly the book we commissioned. How could it be? Adventures rarely go as planned but we present to you the collected work, so that adventurers might glean from it the knowledge they need to survive, avoid Wilburton’s pitfalls, and so that, perhaps, you may still journey to our beautiful territory, enjoy the delights, and avoid the dangers.

Sincerely,
The Council
