I'm very surprised that nobody has mentioned Exalted yet - it's probably the second-best selling fantasy RPG out there.

*Sigh* I'm such a sucker for these things. Now I've vastly expanded my "Midnight" collection...

I'm not familiar with either. Could you elaborate on that?

I've also started working on the demon equivalent, but that one is still somewhat vague...

Not that I mind, but... is this, strictly speaking, legal?

All the best fantasy literature steels liberally from mythology. The archetypes of myths and legend are enduring and powerful - it's only their interpretations that differ.

Yup, pretty much. "Hell" has been used all too often in RPG settings. So have "Abyss", "Hades", and all the other terms from the more well-known mythologies. And since I had already decided to call the realms of the demons in Urbis the Qlippoth, "Sheol" seemed like a natural fit.

I'm currently in the process of moving Urbis to yet another site after the current one hasn't worked out as I've hoped. This time, I'm putting the whole thing into a Wiki format. Only a minority of stuff has been ported over, but I'm slowly getting there... And while I'm at it, I'm also...

First adventure seed not written by me: Lost Hippies of the Catacombs

So far, only the three listed below on the same page exist. This is a fairly new feature. Though I do hope others will add adventure seeds of their own... I choose three links because I was inspired by a "random campaign setting generator" which used three random GURPS sourcebooks. But if you...

I've added several adventure seeds to show how it works out in practice: Revenge of the Cargo Cult The Hunt for the Dreamers The Fires of the Deep

Swiped for the Arcana Wiki.

*bump* No one?

I've been trying to make use of the new Random Page function of the Wikidot.Com wiki software to make a Random Adventure Seed Generator for the Arcana Wiki. I have a bunch of ideas on how to use the Random Page function for more complex stuff - random characters, complex plot lines, even random...

- An extra tier of powers which are explicitly for non-combat use. Yes, the characters get to use all sorts of cool powers during combat - but what can they do in other situations? Exalted can be plundered for ideas for this one. Heck, they even made the Bureaucracy skill cool. - Far more...

I'm still of two minds about the font issue. I prefer small fonts myself, but I have good eyes - and a quite large number of people have said that they prefer larger font sizes. So I will probably go with a 10 pt font in the end.

As I'm not familiar with the Pathfinder setting, could others give me their impressions of it as well?

The "Dungeon Fantasy" series for GURPS might also be a good starting point for easing D&D players into the system.

You can - that's what the set of scales to the left and bottom of the posts are for.

So, what would you do differently?
