Re: Liber Castellorum on e23!
For the unaware: Liber Castellorum is the guide to how Tethers work in the In Nomine universe, including good, bad and neutral features; the powers and limitations of Seneschals; likely defensive measures; how different Choirs and Bands oversee them; the life-cycle of a Tether; and, finally, a long list of sample Tethers for each of the core Superiors.
You may never look at the Lincoln Memorial steps quite the same way again ...

Re: Liber Castellorum on e23!
This is absolutely one of the my favorite books, because (along with Liber Servitorum) it provides concrete example of how Superiors wield their Words in the real world. I can often be difficult for someone new to IN to connect the more metaphorical Words to realworld applications, and Liber Castorellum has a great collection of examples of how to do this.
Awesome.

Re: Liber Castellorum on e23!
As I said for the Designer's Notes for this one, long and long ago... My first reaction was "a book about Tethers? What? Who'd want that?" However, I followed orders like a good little Servitor, and I think the result is, indeed, a pretty darn useful book. Check the index -- there are some useful easter eggs, since I looked up Tether locations that might not actually be mentioned in the maintext, and filed them under country or state as appropriate, if I recall correctly.
