Dark•Matter D20--how should I go about it?

[Von Ether]

1.) I second GR PHB at the bare minium.

2.) If you have some patience, I'd suggest looking over Spycraft 2.0 and using the Master Conversion document to do the Ritual Magic for occult powers. I'd suggest using the Campaign Qualities to tweak the game to be darker and grittier.

The Book of Unremitting Horror

You MUST buy the Book of Unremitting Horror from Pelgrane Press.

Got my copy and have not bought a book with such original monsters, with excellent hooks to use them in some time.

Definitely check it out.

Ciao!

(Though sometimes I toy with the loving thought of producing a line of PDF products to fully kit out all my droogs out there that want to play D*M with d20. But my layout skills are sorely lacking and I don't know of any publishers out there that would be hot'n'bothered by it. If anybody is, let me know, as I've already got the hard part figured out. Just mostly fluff-writing and playtesting from here out.)

Well, apparently a publisher WAS hot and bothered by some of my work, or at least intrigued enough by it to work with me.

To skate delicately around NDAs and contracts and the like: I'll have something on the market rather soon that may interest the D*M d20 types.

Of course -I- think it's pretty spiffy, but I'm hoping others will too.

The accolades can begin when purchase links are released.

Cool - keep us informed along the way!

Well, purchase links have been released!

SFX Skills: Diabolism is now available at RPGNow EDGE. (And perhaps broader release soon.)

SFX Skills: Diabolism is a self-contained "magic kit". The "magic system" we're calling SFX Skills, and fans of Feats'n'Skills FX should be pleased (the name sort of says it all, eh?). Fans of a thematically focused "traditions" approach to magic should, likewise, be pleased.

Of course, I'm biased, and excited ...

I think the price-point is pretty nice, as well. I've based an entire mini-campaign around using nothing more than this system for FX. 1.95? Less than the cost of a sub sandwich.

Not knowing HeapT's products (although thanks for the heads-up; I didn't even know about them until just now) I would have said google up a good fan conversion if you can find one, or just drop the specific flavor and go with the Shadow Chasers rules as sorta "close enough."

I'm just glad to find someone who respects the setting enough to take the time to add the • to Dark•Matter.

Purchased the moment I saw this! Looking forward to reading this tonight.

Special Characters are your friend.

I think it's as much a symptom of my near-obsessive perfectionism as it is an indication of how cool I think D•M is.

Hmm. Now I want to write a Dark•Matter adventure revolving around OCD and Diabolism.


HeapThaumaturgist, Will you be doing more of these for different traditions? Because that would be awesome.

While I can't actually speak for Heap, I can speak as the publisher since I'm the one who published Diabolism for him.....

Yes, there are. I'll let Heap inform you folks of what's in store. I know I'm excited.

Thanks for the time,

In a word: "Yes."

In fact, I've got the manuscript for another sitting open as I type this.

I've also got a few other things planned, as well, one being a web enhancement for Diabolism, and a creature feature that I think some people, at least, have been missing.

Hopefully folks will enjoy.
