Welcome to Curious Quill, an original content resource for fantasy roleplaying.

Announcing a change in direction: supporting Dragonbane. I am Moving On from 5e as my primary focus. Most of what is here is designed to be used in any system, but a lot has focused on 5e. For a time at least, I will be adapting my work to Dragonbane. I hope you join me in my journey, and if you play 5e yourself, remember that there is a plethora of info already here, and new stuff will be easily adaptable. So don’t go anywhere.

Some elves learn to use these items of clothing in combat, becoming able to defend themselves, and even make attacks, without any weapon.
