[QUOTE="Rellott, post: 8233360, member: 6809701"] 1. I’m pretty sure it’s [I]supposed[/I] to be a book a person, but I would handwave it. 2. Candlekeep has some security and stuff but isn’t exactly in the law enforcement sector. They handle internal issues and Candlekeep-threatening issues. Not a random dude (however plot-important) from Baldur’s Gate with no clear evidence of wrong-doing on his part. You could hand-wave it, or force the adventurers to do some critical thinking and RP. That’s up to you. 3. I don’t think there are many families there. If there were, I would imagine there’s some sort of way to have permanent access to the Court of Air (the small non-library part of Candlekeep where seekers come and read). 4. I don’t know. I would expect that doesn’t come up often, as they’re a bit out of the way - it’d probably take a tenday to get anywhere and back, if not longer, without teleportation magic. But teleportation magic doesn’t work in Candlekeep. I don’t think there’s a strict end-cap for staying at Candlekeep, though there may be an end-cap for how long you can have a book. A lot of it’s probably case-by-case. The Candlekeep book does describe a character who’s been hanging out there for what sounds like at least several weeks or months, if not years. 5. There is the Court of Air, where non-library workers eat, sleep, and read. I’m pretty sure you have to have the book to gain access to even this area, though, as the library proper is off limits without specific permission for special guests. [/QUOTE]
