+* Returns no characters will mostly have walked the Pattern before the start of the Game.
+* if you would like to bring back a character who doesn't want to (or can't) walk the Pattern, please email us about alternatives.
+* Still no constructs and no Jewel of Judgement attunement!
+* There are some FAQs below; more will be added as they come up.
+* Please let us know who you think you gave Trumps of yourself to last time!
+* A bonus of 1 additional point per hundred words (up to a maximum of 5) is available to any player who sends us a short summary of what happened last time. -- see [[Last Time in Amber...]]
