Book Wishlist And Checklist

This page exists to help consolidate all the ideas and all the tasks that need to be overcome in order to make this project actually happen. Feel free to add to this as ideas come up.

## Wishlist

These are ideas for potential things to be featured in *Book Of Ye Old Interest.* Anything can be added for whatever reason to this section and somethings may move to the actual checklist.

* Multiple campaign starting points. *Any point in Litharos history could be used as a homebrew campaign setting, but I'd like to have multiple starting points already setup for a potential campaign.*
* Foundry compatibility. *As a Foundry user, it's not horribly difficult to make Foundry specific content. Importing things takes time, but is not horribly difficult. Creating a module that is available to purchasers of the setting guide is somewhat less obvious.*
* Actual Art. *AI generated images are useful in the early stages of this project, but ideally, there would be no AI images used in the final product.*
* Custom player races. *There are several homebrew races in **Tales Of Ye Old Interest,** and it would be very interesting to have them available to playable races.*
* Custom subclasses/classes. *I've never made a custom class or subclass, but there are many setting specific ideas. Depending on if there is a focus on solely Dungeons & Dragons 5e or being more system agnostic, this may not be feasible.*
	+ Dungeons & Dragons **and** Pathfinder variants. *This would be a longshot, as both systems are very different, and would be very time intensive, with potentially no real payoff. If being system agnostic seems unlikely, and there is viable interest in other variants, then this could be an option.*
* ***Tales Of Ye Old Interest*** party member profile. *Not horribly difficult, but if the default starting date is set post **Tales Of YE Old Interest,** then including pages detailing the party could be a fun feature.*
	+ *Including party characters as sample characters for any point in the timeline could be interesting. None of the player characters really are dependent on their place in the timeline, so having character sheets for them could allow a quick start to actually playing in the setting.*

* Custom items, magical items and such. (~~Amulet Of De-Possession~~, ~~Laena's Crown~~, other items that I can't think of right now, Dral's...fabric flesh??? !!! THE GRAND DAGGER OF POROS !!!)
* *Something to be done about the Arkon and Aryonia both being big figures and places that talk about each other a lot and both start with 'A'*

## Checklist

This is probably a less than complete list, as I really do not know what essentially needs to happen in order to release a book. But, hopefully this will help document progress.

* ~~Name setting world - *Complete (Litharos)*~~
* Describe prime faiths - *Partially complete. Veshen faiths are described but need editing. Verax faiths missing any documentation.*
* Detail major figures - *Incomplete. Many major characters are described, but many more are not documented. This might be incomplete until **Tales Of Ye Old Interest** is complete, as important characters are constantly introduced.*
* Detail locations - *Incomplete. Many nations are described, but are not sufficiently detailed, and locations within nations are not described.*
* World Map - *Mostly complete. There are many versions of the world map, with geological features, national borders, and capitals all placed. Could use further revision, but is in a mostly usable state.*
* Litharos History - *Mostly complete. World impacting events have been described, and inconsistencies are mostly dealt with. Could use a revision after **Tales Of Ye Old Interest** is complete, but is in a very usable state.*
* Narrow down scope of project - *Incomplete on every level. Need to figure out how many books the project will consist of and what any book will include.*
* Create standard game starting dates - *Incomplete. The most detailed starting date would be 4115 (PCE), as it is when **Tales Of Ye Old Interest** began, but even then, this starting date needs more focused information.*
	+ Decide on a first starting date. The main candidates are currently between 4115 (PCE) and post **Tales Of Ye Old Interest.**
	+ The early Heroes Age would be a good candidate for another campaign starting point, as much of that has been detailed for the now defunct **Tales Of Ye Old Dragons** campaign.
* Detail factions - *Incomplete. Various factions like The Tall Boys, International Adventurer's Guild, and Seekers of Veshen,* *are detailed to a semi-usable degree, but more are needed.*
* **Filter out and replace non-original content - *Incomplete.*** *This needs to be remedied fairly early on. characters like Professor Dyrwock, the vampire Gabriel, the restaurant owner in Vheninggrave and Jig Joiner are both from Gamemaster's Book Of Non-Player Characters. They are dramatically different from their original concepts, mostly only keeping their names from the book, and some character traits, but being sure that these characters are entirely separate is important.*
