D'ni History For Agebuilders! - Emor D'ni Lap - 11-08-2012
If you're writing an Age that has to tie in with existing canon, it can be difficult to locate the info you need. Here are a few resources on D'ni History that may be useful :
- Mystlore is a wiki of general D'ni info:
http://en.mystlore.com/wiki/Main_Page
(13/04: this link has been dead for the past couple months, but there are hopes for its restoration)
(July 2018: restoration looking highly unlikely!)
------------------------------------------
- The DPWR Archive was on hiatus for quite awhile, but Alahmnat may bring it back:

JULY 2018 NOTE: the DPRW site now refers through to the Guild of Archivists' Wiki that Hub cites below: https://archive.guildofarchivists.org/wiki/Main_Page
------------------------------------------
- Geekmonger's compilation of resources, on the Mystonline forums:

Cyan's RAWA is generally considered the arbiter of all things D'ni;
here he offers agebuilders some "Guidelines for Official Story/Age Creation":

Please post more of your favorites; we'll compile a larger list on the website in coming months!

Another place that has collected alot of D'ni history is the D'ni Desk Reference:

Alahmnat has opened up the Guild of Archivists. It looks good, I dont know how complete the archives there are, yet. This could be a good source too.

D'ni Grammar - Emor D'ni Lap - 11-25-2016
Once you feel confident you're using the right D'ni words, how do you assemble them into proper sentences?
Talashar has done a good job of putting together the known information on D'ni grammar, and thankfully continues to update this overview:
