Foreword
The Unwritten: System Reference Document (SRD) is a system-reference document for the game Unwritten: Adventures Across the Ages of MYST and Beyond. As a stripped down version of the Unwritten main book, covering only the system aspects of Unwritten, it has only part of what appears in the main book proper. There is no lore in here - for that you have to go to the full version of the book or use this wiki.
What is NOT in this version:
- Art - Lowercase "a" art, of course.
- Examples - Including examples of play, example characters, example Ages
- Lore - The SRD is focused on the system; lore isn't a factor.
