Staff Notes

Welcome to STAFF Notes. Below you'll find a collection of short information dumps about a particular topic relevant to the Haven System or THE FIFTH WORLD in general. It's a place for STAFF to collect and share information that's been gathered by watching RP, to explore some interesting corners of the Haven System, to talk about the system or design philosophy, or generally talk about things that they think may be of interest to the players but don't really fit in anywhere else on the wiki. If you have a request for a topic for STAFF to explore, please drop a +request on the game.
