+How to create storylines and storyline chapters:
+
+The "main campaign" (the central plot followed by the game) is organised within its own folder under Storylines and divided by chapters. Each individual text file is one chapter of the story. Side-stories longer than one chapter should be similarily organised whithin a dedicated folder. Stories consisting of a single chapter should be submitted directly under Storylines.
+
+To create a chapter specify the author, zone in which the story takes place and name/title of the story (for the main campaign it's simply "main campaign").
+
+Example:
+```
+Author: Uruk-hai
+
+Zone: Rohan
+
+Story: Taking The Hobbits To Isengard, chapter 1
+```
+
+When the specific location of NPCs is relevant to the story, this can be specified using map coordinates (xx, yy; map hook). Quests tied to the story should be included using the following format:
+```
+QUEST: Name
+
+Description, including goals, required items and any other relevant information.
+
+Reward: should usually include experience and money along with any other desired reward.
+```
