Hey all,
As I'm starting to shape up the new rules system for Endless Journeys. Just to reiterate a couple points:
- I have to use a new system as a reference for the content we create. Wizards of the Coast is giving us no other option, and everything we know is saying that they aren't going to renege on the 1.1 OGL.
- Mörk Borg works best because it's got a very loose license, and it's easy to adapt. Plus the community is hella supportive (I spoke to the creator yesterday).
- Although the game itself is dark and edgy at its core, what I create doesn't necessarily have to be.
- Having said all this, my content has always had a bit of a horror edge to it. Not only am I a huge horror nut, but I listen to a lot of metal. So Mörk Borg already looks like what my brain does.
- The adventures that we create will be 100% backward compatible with Fifth Edition.
I'm interested in how "edgy" you want the game to be in terms of our tone and where we take it. I planned to do a horror book in the spring anyways, so we'll keep working with that. But that doesn't mean everything I make will be edgy.
Below, I'm posting a poll to see what you all think about overall design.
I'll give a week or so for folks to vote.
