Difference between revisions of "Writings of Abd al-Hazir"

Revision as of 00:26, 24 October 2010

The Writings of Abd al-Hazir are well known in the civilised parts of Sanctuary. They seem to both be named works as well as a collection of entries, such as a diary.

The Writings of Abd al-Hazir is thereby probably both the name of a book as well as literally being a collection of his writing.

The 42nd entry is the last known writing of Abd al-Hazir. Known for his compilation of weird and wonderful facts about our unique world, he has unfortunately been missing since late last year.

However, he seems to have escaped being marked by Cultists (in the 42nd entry) and has written his 68th entry.
