Welcome to my office! As a Scribe, my purview is the World Development forum and all things related thereunto, including the creation of lore articles -- but most especially promoting and coordinating player contributions to the lore.
I cannot help you with any of the following:
In contrast, these are the things I can and will most gladly do:
Please do NOT post to this office any requests for me (or anyone else) to develop specific lore articles. There is a wishlist in Lore Discussion for those. Please DO feel free to post here or PM me if you are interested in developing a lore article yourself, even -- especially! -- if you have exactly no idea how to go about it. I would love to help you along the road to becoming a Lore Author!
Yes, you.
That skill writeup you really wish you could reference? That summoning world or monstrous creature or player's guide that would be a great boon to your RP? You can write it. You should.
Think about it. Brainstorm a little. Then let's talk about how to make it happen. In the meantime, I offer you an inspirational quote:

I cannot help you with any of the following:
- Developing gnosis lore, new magics, races, cities, gods, or any other articles of that sort, unless you have already secured Founder permission to do such development.
- Developing city locations, NPCs, or anything else highly specific, narrowly focused, and above all most appropriately posted within a domain forum. Talk to your local STs about these.
- Approving character sheets, granting jobs or wages, modding threads, grading threads, or anything else relating to IC everyday affairs. Again, I refer you to your local STs.
In contrast, these are the things I can and will most gladly do:
- Maintain a catalog of wanted, abandoned, in-progress, and completed lore articles
- Answer questions relating to lore articles and their development
- Coordinate volunteers in writing lore articles
- Collaborate on article development and drafting
- Provide feedback on any article draft, regardless of its state
- Help with wiki code and conversion of articles from forum to wiki format
- Write lore articles with relevance to the game at large
