Re: will there be a Book of Patrons?

Just a quick note: The King of Elfland is Lord Dunsany (The King of Elfland's Daughter).

Re: will there be a Book of Patrons?

A 3pp book of patrons is in the works. I have just agreed to fully develop 16 of them. That is fantastic news. I really like your deity write-up on these forums and your actual play on the Unseen Servant forums. One guaranteed purchase here. Who are you publishing through? I am not certain how much...

Re: Anyone combine "Portal" with "Doom"?

That wizards don't learn their spells immediately is the RAW in DCC, so Joseph Goodman gets the kudos on that. Spontaneous election (when the spirits/gods pick YOU) is not only very much in keeping with the source material, it is also in keeping with folklore, shamanic practice, and older ideas abou...

Re: Anyone combine "Portal" with "Doom"?

I'm still solving how to promote the zeroes to first level in a way that makes some kind of sense. The time passage is really classic, and I approve! I am now giving XP after each encounter, and characters level when they do. For me this means any non-magical classes just get better at what they do...

When you have a firm idea of the project, i.e., length, number of patrons, etc., pass that information on to me. I have no idea what remuneration you have in mind yet, so you'll want to include that information as well. I have a day job, and I have no illusions about getting rich doing this sort of ...

Re: Currently looking for like minded writers and artist's ?

There is a lot of potential in a Patrons book, esp. if there is a permission to use those patrons in other products.

I am working on patrons myself, and would consider submitting.

When the time comes, I can also do editing.

The first thing that jumps out at me, then, is that you allow your shirtless man any armour! :lol: I get that you gave him a bonus for not using armour, but as Fumbles already include a bonus for not wearing armour, I think that this might be a mistake.

Re: Birth Auger at +0

I have my players write them down. When I ran Sailors , one of my players was Born on the Battlefield. He wanted to roll a knowledge check regarding the history of the keep. I allowed him to do so, as he likely heard stories of wars due to his birthright. Even if the modifier is not useful, incorpo...
