I remember him in a scene where he speaks of Yog-soth-oth with some other people. I thought it was based on Charles Dexter Ward but could be mistaken.

It doesn't help that the line got canned before the HC was released. That stupid box set was meant to draw SC players to Alternity. There are a couple files in the resources section of A.net that fill the gaps (plus a whole subforum devoted to the setting), but it would be nice to see a 300-400...

Which one had Peter Cushing?

Mechanical Dream.

211- Ecology of the Dungeon is by far my most favorite article.

Other than radioactives, I can't think of any unstable materials that might work. Nah, it was just strange to read that since I remembered nickle dragons more than another of that family.

Since when? Nickel dragons are in decline because they randomly consume their offspring and chrome dragons are CE.

The only negative thing I can say about BTN is the monk abilities. Since they have prereqs, the player is forced to follow the order in the PH. It is easy to change, but something to keep in mind.

It was used by WoTC for the title of 2 or 3 books back in the 90's. I have the Compleat Alchemist.

Wrong movies, Sidran. They mean these: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0929629/ and http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0942903/ TV movies that finish the SG-1 storylines.

This reminds me of a piece of art in one of the Alternity books. The Alien Compendium showed one of the aliens, the gardhyi, with facial features they don't have. This was specifically mentioned in the text. I complained on the mailing list and Jim Butler said it was an issue they were working...

Thank you for putting it better than me. There is one supplement, that I am considering getting, is set in DC. Others have told me it covers how social changes there have a much bigger ripple effect (for obvious reasons). But I would expect the competition to be that much more fierce and the...

Rights are being stripped away, the government spys on the populace, a slave species has been created, people can sell their bodies to fast food joints (like Tastee Ghoul), and life generally sucks for the shrinking middle class. Soldiers are turned into monsters and have no place when they...

Most recently I have taken Occult Lore's spiritual cultivation concept and merged it with Green Ronin's Shaman style spirits and added themes from the Sorcerer rpg. So we have spirits that are the only source of magic, but using them induces corruption. It is not a happy setting.

I appologise- I should have been more clear. Now can we get back to the setting? I think the only thing, other than the politics, that would drive away potential players is the automatic insanity all the PCs have.

No, it really isn't that hard to go to the top of any page here and get the link to the store and then Mayfair's pages. If I were to mention something from rpgnow (well when it was different) or some other site, then I would have provided a link. I only have the core pdf and got it for the...

A weaker, but still interesting work of Dixon is The Future is Wild, which is a Discovery Channel (and IIRC BBC) "documentary" as well as a book.

Check out the Mayfair pdfs here.

I owned the most recent edition for a short time. I found the basics of the setting interesting (humans colonize a world that has natives and other sapient aliens, they create uplifts then Earth blows up and humans react with fear and war with the locals, now it is several thousand years later)...

There are at least two- Bastion's Faeries and Goodman's Complete Guide to Fey. Both have stats and templates.
