Structure and Intuition (the Shardmind & the Prophet)

Two more Stellar Classes, if you're in Northern Lights then don't look! (sorry)

Hexmap Exploration Procedures (ft. the Cartographer)

Each turn on the hexmap for Northern Lights takes one 8-hour Shift, 2 in the day and 1 at night, meaning 3 Shifts covering a full 24 hour day. The party can spend a Shift either Resting or Exploring. I'll be saving the Resting rules for my eventual XP/Advancement article, but this is the post that finally puts to paper the Exploration rules, including the single Most Interesting Mechanic I've Ever Designed. Plus, a class at the end for players wanting to contribute to the navigation process.

The Stars and their consequences (the Pyromancer & Necromancer)

Fundamental to the world of Northern Lights is this: the stars see you, they hate you, and they will unmake you. This effects the world's topology, culture, and ecology, but the main focus of this post is what that means for the players.

I'm keeping any further details below the cut, those in the campaign (you know who you are) avoid reading onward.

A little good advice goes a long way.
