Arc-sized prep
One tier goal, one faction clock, and a continuity note—enough for a single campaign chapter.
Open-rules campaign desk
Multi-year fantasy arcs on open rules—without pretending the SRD is a blank check
SRD Epics is for tables running long campaigns on public System Reference Documents: tier pacing, domain turns, faction endgames, and continuity notes that survive player churn. We teach campaign literacy and what open documents usually cover. We do not invent licenses, products, or permissions.
Start with Getting Started, skim the Guides hub, or browse Resources when you need outbound references like SRD overview.
What this desk is for
Long open-rules campaigns stall when the arc bible becomes a novel, tier jumps feel arbitrary, or nobody wrote what the SRD actually includes versus house lore. We write short habits for those joints.
Prefer primary SRD doors and public campaign scholarship. Starts: 5th Edition SRD reference, SRD overview, and RPG campaign structures. Wikipedia helps lineage—not commercial permission.
If a domain turn or faction clock needs closed setting IP to work, mark it house-only. Epic scaffolding should not smuggle Product Identity into a public cite.
Guides, Glossary, and Resources go deeper. Sibling desks cover cite hygiene (srdcrate), speed lookup (srdfast), high-tier combat (epicsrd), and extended essays (exsrd).
How we write
Date arc boards, domain ledgers, and which SRD revision you cited. Guest GMs should inherit a trail, not a vibe—and never an invented license claim.
