11 #### Basic Information ####
12 * Welcome to Thelbane CSI, run by Shadow.
13 * All the books are considered to be loosely canonical.
14 * Characters are minor members of Chaosian Houses who for one reason or another are part of Thelbane CSI. Perhaps they genuinely want to help keep their home safe; perhaps they were bored and wanted something to do with their time; perhaps someone told them that they were going to do it and like it.
15 * Whatever the reason, when things get murky, they work together to find out what’s going on - so please don't build a character who won't work as part of a team.
16 * Whilst this game is set in the same setting as the series of games that we've been running at AmberCon UK, it's a spin-off rather than a sequel or continuation.
17 *For the interest of those who have played in them, this game is set before the events of [[The Golden Circle]].
