The Wizard of Shadowfell is a variant core character
class for D20 Fantasy gamers, a twist on the Wizard
character class most gamers are familiar with. The
Wizard of Shadowfell is an attempt to emulate
the wizardly heroes and protagonists of myth and
literature; in particular, to allow players to build heroic
arch-magi similar to three main inspirations: J.R.R.
Tolkien’s Gandalf, Terry Brook’s Allanon the Druid
(a character similar to Gandalf in many respects), and
Merlin, as portrayed in films like Excalibur and Mists
of Avalon.

The Wizard of Shadowfell is a secretive, enigmatic
and powerful spell caster. His sheer brilliance and
indomitable will allows him to walk with demons and
converse with gods, and in both cases he is treated as
a rare equal. In contrast with the traditional Wizard,
the Wizard of Shadowfell casts spells rarely and with
great deliberation, but the spells the arch mage masters
are incredibly powerful and can change the course of
history.


Wizards of Shadowfell excel at tactics and deception,
and are well versed in the history of nations, politics
and court intrigue. Despite this, few Shadowfell
Wizards rule openly, with most choosing to be the
‘voice behind the throne’, or to rule through proxies.
In an adventuring party, the highly educated and
purposeful Wizard of Shadowfell is likely to be the
team leader, the one who decides the course of a
journey, who uses his sharp mind and divinatory spells
to prepare the party to the dangers they will face on
the road.

This fourteen page PDF includes everyting you need to include these powerful and enigmatic wizards in your 3.5 System campaign.

We'll see what they do with the GSL, then I'll know how to proceed. I'd like to convert many of our titles, but there is no way I am going to convert-forever per the current GSL. Hopefully WOTC will kill that.

I won't turn this thread into a GSL/WOTC rant but I did a post on my Blog about what I think. If your inclined to, feel free to have a look.

Yes, why do you ask?

I can't speak for Blair, but for my own part: your blurb doesn't mention the Shadowfell at all. None of the characters you list as inspirations could be at all described as "Shadowy". "Wizards of the Shadowfell" sounds like the name for a completely different product.

I'm guessing that since this class is designed for 3.5, you may not have been paying much attention to 4E. The Shadowfell is a new plane used heavily in 4E, being a dark reflection of the real world, filled with evil creatures and undead. Many people will look at the name of your product and think that it relates to that.
