Does the lord of Blades actually figure in Ebwrron? Does that chapter lampshade Wbwrron's cosmology situation at all?

Clint is a teacher, so that's school club related.

I mean, it might be one of them both/and situations, ya know?

Even gra timg that, yeah, Tashia where the designers really made the turn into thinking about new Core books...it really is not a major shift.

It's a toolkit to create generic High Fantasy, which I have not seen people in the wild bounce off of.

That's a fairly odd way to think about a toy company: they aren't anyones friends or significant other, it is a conglomerate that manufactures games.

I have not, but I think I got the gist from the ToC discussions.

The licenses definition of anon-legal termhas no legal force, ia the thing. There is no mechanism for arbitration or enforcement. However, there is a mechanism for arbitration enforcement of copyright, so Monte Cook could probavly successfully sue anyone who tried to use the OGL to use stuff he...
