Mechanics

Rules system: several; each page below names its own.

Lore: what magic, demons and the other subjects of these rules are in the world is told in the Magic, Cosmology and Creatures sections.

Legacy game-design material from the Terrun archive: magic systems, rune traditions, class drafts, spell lists, demon rules and stat blocks written for earlier rule sets. It is organised here so it is not lost, and it is not canon for play. How anything works at the table is defined by the ARCS rules; material judged worth keeping may be transitioned to ARCS later. The world-description passages of these documents have already been mined into the lore sections, and each page here links the lore page that owns its subject.

Pages are grouped by the rules system they were written for. Each opens with that system and lists its source documents. Tables are lightly cleaned; rules are reproduced as written, not corrected or rebalanced, and where drafts disagree the differences are noted.
