d20 / OGL Fiction

[w_earle_wheeler]

(and by d20/OGL fiction, i don't mean THAT kind of slash fiction!)

I have a pretty horrible idea.

OK, maybe it isn't horrible. Maybe it's tolerable. Maybe it's good. I think, at best, it's "fun."

Would it be allowed (legally) to write "almost" D&D stories and novels using the material made open in the SRD? You know, Sword & Sorcery novels with pointy-hatted half-elven Wizards casting MAGIC MISSILE (zap) and FIREBALL (woooofburn) at pretty much every monster except the ones that are still WOTC intellectual property?

You could even put in their stats in an appendix if you wanted to and use the OGL.

Shrugs. A novel is just another way of introducing a campaign setting. As long as you abide by the OGL (and if you prefer, d20STL), I got no objection.
