This is the repository for all knowledge regarding the world and nation of Crescent, a D&D setting. 

Crescent is home to the [[Companions of the Rising Sun]], who gathered together the four [[Amulets of the Elements]] and saved their world.

Crescent is also the home to [[Division 7]], a short campaign in which the characters were employees of the Jade Tower's Mission Impossible team!

Most recently, Crescent is the setting for the Crescent Adventures, a fledgling new campaign that advances the timeline a few decades into a steampunk era. Stay tuned for more details, and download the Adventure Guide for starter info!

==Acknowledgements==
Many great thanks due to my DM's, Robert, Linda, Ryan, Stefan, Ray, Ian, Ed, Ryan, and Morgan, from whom I drew inspiration and ideas (and also just flat-out ripped off some of this stuff =+). Thanks, guys!

The cities of [[Luminaux]] and [[Velora]], and a lot of the events and flavor of them, and a few other place names, are inspired by Sharon Shinn's [http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw_1_12?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sharon+shinn+samaria+series&x=0&y=0&sprefix=sharon+shinn Samaria Series].

The city of [[Hotempa]] is laid out in great detail in an out of print product ''Interludes: Sands of Pain'', by Mystic Eye Games, which also served as inspiration and resource for the adventure [[Burning Sands]].

The [[City-State of Haven]] is based on ''Highthrone, City Above the Clouds'', by [http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/index.php Mongoose Publishing], now out of print. Haven also drew inspiration from ''Shelzar, City of Sin'', by Sword & Sorcery Studios, also out of print.

[[The Spire]] is based on ''Sharn: City of Towers'', from the Eberron setting by Wizards of the Coast.

Many of the adventures have been taken from ''[http://paizo.com/paizo/news/dungeon Dungeon Magazine]'', or other sources, as noted.
