Time Master

[DoctorB]

Hey, does anyone know what ever happened to the old RPG Time Master? The game was originally published by a company called "54 40 Orphyte". I am looking to port it into d20 (or find someone who already has).

There's a time manipulation setting, complete with appropriate feats, in the back of the True 20 core book. It's not normal d20, but it's close enough that converting to other systems is a snap. Plus, True 20 is a solid system in itself and from what (little) I've seen in play it runs extremely smoothly even in awkward situations such as grappling.

Scooting this over to General, for a better response...

Actually, TimeMaster was originally published by Pacesetter (which also originally published Chill and StarAce), 54 40 Orphyte picked up the game and the rights after Pacesetter folded. To my knowledge the game is basically in limbo: Orphyte released a couple adventures (based on con demos, I believe) and that's been it for years.

Thanks for the info!
It looks like I can get the original Time Master still if I want to. I may also check out the True20 system. Sounds interesting.
I am planning to write some one-offs for it for PirateCat's get togethers but I dont want to have to teach a new system.

I strongly recommend True20. It's fun, streamlined D&D that uses a system similar to Mutants and Masterminds. I'd be psyched to play it if you find it a good match.

Not sure if you're just looking for "d20 time travel" or really want the TimeMaster way of doing it, but I'd be remiss if I didn't point out this supplement: http://shop.enworld.org/index.php?do=product&productid=129&source=Search for temporality
