| (cc-l/cc-l) |
anywhere,
indicates a character with more than one class, and the
respective levels. If the classes are about equal level
they appear in order as listed above; in cases where there
is a wide discrepancy, the primary class appears first.
Triple-class characters show as (cc-l/cc-l/cc-l) using
the same rationale. |
| (cc:cc) |
rarely
seen, this indicates either a) a character with two classes
using the original AD+D rules for two-classing, where
one class is stopped when the other begins until the second
catches up in level; or b) a character that for some reason
changed class completely during its career either temporarily
or permanently. |
| (c-n-p;d) |
in adventure headers in
all logs; indicates overall number of characters c
appearing in that adventure, number of new characters
n introduced in that adventure,
number of new player characters p
introduced, number of deaths d
in that adventure. |

| Classes: |

Occasionally,
a monster with specific abilities pertaining to its race
- but no class levels - becomes a played character, party
member, or otherwise significant enough to warrant a listing.
To indicate this, their race and class are listed as being
the same e.g. Dragon(Dragon). If the creature has levels
as well, these are listed instead e.g. Leprechaun(MU-5).

| Other
notes: |
| |
In the logs, the first
set of dates noted in each adventure header are the
in-game dates when
the adventure took place, and the second set are the
real-world dates when the
adventure was played. (this can be confusing where –
as has happened a few times – the game calendar uses
real-world names for the months)
