[QUOTE="teachermaniac, post: 1703286, member: 22308"] Hi all. I've had thoughts about converting a series of fantasy books that I've read into a fantasy campaign setting for d20. I have a very good handle on the inner workings of D&D and of the inner workings of the lands portrayed in the books. Essentially, I'd just like to know if there are any others out there that have attempted such a thing before and if so, how they went about it. Obviously, much is dependent on the setting as described by the author. But are there any things a developer would need to consider in doing this? How much should I go out of my way to develop and write about things that were not really addressed in depth in the books (obviously depending on plot)? I've done homebrew campaign worlds before, so this isn't all new. But basing a system off of a set of books is. I'm just looking for a little guidance. And, if you really would like to know the series I'd be happy to post as long as I wouldn't be violating copyrights or something like that. Thanks. :) [/QUOTE]
