Message: <blockquote data-quote="Roger" data-source="post: 4415212" data-attributes="member: 17420">This is legitimately sort of tricky, and often trickier than it needs to be.Here's the thing:  Not everything in an Open Game License product is necessarily Open Game Content.Indeed, the OGC can be as little as 5% of the product.A publisher is required to clearly identify which parts of the product are Product Identity and not OGC, but they often don't do a very good job of it.It's perfectly keeping within the letter of the OGL, if not the spirit, to publish a monster and say the name and its powers are not OGC, but the rest of it is.All that being said, I agree that in your particular case, it wouldn't hurt to drop the publishers an email and ask if it'd be okay if you do what you plan to do.  There's a reasonably good chance they'll say it's fine.If not, you might need to create your own cool monster.Cheers,Roger</blockquote>
