Home: who you can be, and how to start playing
Below the pitch, Home now introduces the five Archetypes, the actual-play campaigns, and
how the game plays, then a new "Try it now" section with the live character sheet and a
printable blank one. The old four-step character summary is gone; the full walkthrough
lives on Character Creation.

A front page that says what Shadows is
Home now opens with what makes Shadows different: cyberpunk and the supernatural sharing
one city, and a city that remembers what you do. The first button takes you into NYTE
City, and the two intro cards became one short pitch.

Rules Preview, in a better order
Rules Preview now starts with the Archetypes and ends with Character Creation, so you meet
who you can play before the numbers, and the last page hands you the live character
sheet. Archetypes is rebuilt around how Shadows actually works: everyone starts human,
and there are three mortal paths and two supernatural ones. It's also synced with the
latest draft of the Core Rulebook. The World picked up a short piece on the TAG, the ID
that lets the city keep an eye on you.

Tighter copy, and a home for this list
A copy pass across The World, Rules Preview, News, and About, so the pages talk about
the game rather than about how the site is put together. The World now leads straight
into the Archetypes, and this changelog moved off News onto its own page, so News is
just about Shadows.

Easier to read, easier to get around
A design pass across the whole site. Long pages on The World and Rules Preview now read at
a comfortable width instead of stretching edge to edge, the top nav stays with you as you
scroll (and fits on one row on phones), and every Rules Preview page has Previous/Next
links so you can read them in order like chapters. Archetypes gained jump links, and
there's finally a proper page for links that don't go anywhere.

Light mode
There's now a sun/moon toggle in the top nav for folks who prefer a light theme. Your
choice is remembered on this device, so it stays put next time you visit.

Try the character sheet right now
Character Creation now links straight to the real, live character sheet — build one in
your browser, or grab a blank sheet to fill in by hand.

Fixed the favicon and link previews
Sharing a shadowsrpg.com link now shows a proper preview image, and the browser tab icon
finally shows the skull/dice mark instead of a solid black square.

Cleaner path into the Rules Preview
Home's Core Rulebook section is now a proper shortcut grid into every Rules Preview page,
instead of a scrolling carousel with a couple of dead-end duplicate links. The About page
introduces the team by name, and you can now join us on Discord from Home or About.

Shadowsrpg.com rebuilt from scratch
New Home, Rules Preview (Character Creation, Power Levels, Stats & Skills, Advantages
& Disadvantages, Archetypes, Equipment), The World, About, and Credits pages — all
built fresh from the current Core Rulebook manuscript instead of the old, years-stale
site.
