A d20 NPC Wiki?

[Jürgen Hubert]

I've added one of my favorite creations - a half-fiendish wyrmling green dragon.

Oh, the memories - the fun that I had with it, the terror on the faces of the players...

 

[S'mon]

Added an experienced (War-3) city guard type.

11 entries so far. Not bad...

 

[S'mon]

Added an elite guard War-5.

Added a page for NPC Personalities (not stat blocks) at http://d20npcs.wikicities.com/wiki/NPC_Personalities

Question regarding the intro text: Why is taking of a NPC from the SRD a violation of the OGL? The entire SRD is under the OGL, so if the wiki uses the OGL, then it shouldn't be a problem. Maybe the text should be reformulated into something like: "Don't copy stat blocks, which aren't OGC. Beware, while a stat block can be OGC, that often names of monsters and NPCs are considered Product Identy by the publisher - in this case, the name has to be changed, if the stat block is still included."

Wikicities already uses a different Open Licence, and thus can't use the OGL. As it was explained to me, game terms don't fall under copyright, but text from the SRD or other sources might be more legally dubious...

Then you should include this in the intro text - before someone else thinks, that it doesn't matter.

I'm taking some time to try and have at least one entry for each catagory listed so far. Added an animal and an elemental so far (the animal may be a little under powered, the elemental a little over)... looks like I should do an ooze next.

Hmm...I was thinking of putting up the NPCs, etc from my Babylon 5 game but I am a tad apprehensive in terms of liscense. Would that get you guys in hot water? :\
