Important Notes

This is a template for you to use to build your Rough Magic campaign site. You do not need to keep any of it: it's just here to help you. However, keep the following in mind when editing your pages.

Be Responsible

RPG Nexus works on the honor system: you have the power to edit any campaign here. We have no interest in keeping track of which campaigns you play in and which you don't. Do not edit pages that do not concern you (not even to correct someone's spelling or grammar).

Adding Your Players

If your players do not already have accounts at RPG Nexus, you can add them so that they can edit their own character pages. To create an account for your players, use this link: Create account

Contacting The GM

The Rough Magic campaign belongs to BBlackmoor.

Link Format

When creating new pages for Rough Magic, links to the new page must have the following format:

[[Rough Magic:Page Name|Page Name]]

For example:

[[Rough Magic:Bibliography|Bibliography]]

Category Tags

Each new Rough Magic page must include Category tags for the campaign and the genre:

[[Category:Rough Magic]]
[[Category:Fantasy]]
