Best OGC non-rules content?

Live on where? Hardly anyone reuses OGC.

I think the point is that, if they wanted to, they could.

Well, vs. Elves is released under the OGL with the exception of a few key terms therein, and it's up for an Indie RPG Award. . . but enough about me I think that large swaths of Jurgen Hubert's excellent Urbis are also released under the OGL,

To be precise, only the rules parts of Urbis are released under the OGL - I retain all the rights to the setting for the time being.

Mind you, I am very open to licencing third-party supplements for very small cuts of the sales, but ultimately I still own the setting...

Found this while searching: Malhavoc Press's product Skreyn's Register had a deities web enhancement that could very easily work as a substitute for the whole D&D pantheon. The deities were OGC.

Well, in my case: E6 has generated a lot of interest in a really short amount of time. I don't have the cash to jump into the industry to champion it or do a vanity project. What I do have is a lot of development time and some ideas on how game material ought to be written.

In my dream, someone with art and layout comes along and decides to do an E6 product. They use the resources I've provided because they're 100% OGC and they know they don't have to credit me beyond the Section 15.

Necromancer's Tome of Horrors has quite a bit of open content fluff to go along with some of the monsters.

My bad. It had been a while since I looked at the Urbis OGL. I just recalled the section on Nexus Towers being OGC and that section, for me, represented a key setting element.

For an OGC setting, see SpirosBlaak (Bizzaro Games/Green Ronin Publishing). The PDF is through Misfit Studios.

I was sgoing to bring this up, too. I believe the setting is entirely Open, meaning it could be used as the setting for adventures, or easily dropped into a larger world setting.

Beaten to the punch on Spirosblaak, which I consider one of the better settings.

Another is The Second World Sourcebook. The setting is interesting, but underdeveloped. Unfortunately no other publisher hasn't taken up the mantle and published a second edition with more description of the second world (or other planes within the setting for that matter).

As mentioned, the Murchad's Legacy setting is also almost entirely OGC. It's a good, solid setting with some nice ideas and cultures.

Which reminds me, anyone know how to take a poorly formatted document and turn it into a wikki for free? And if you post said wikki using some freebie hosting service, who owns that IP?
