[QUOTE="Loren the GM, post: 9643310, member: 6882721"] A couple of interesting things on my first glance. Despite scrubbing errant IP from 5.2, [B]this new SRD introduces new IP,[/B] the term "D&D" (first sentence of Rhythm of Play, once again in that same section, and then also in Starting at Higher Levels on page 24). So while "Dungeons & Dragons" is not introduced, "D&D" appears to be a usable term now for publications. This in spite of the legal notice within the license that asks that no other attribution to WotC/parents/affiliates/ be included, and only refer to 5e or fifth edition. To be clear, this is only insofar as the SRD license itself is concerned - there is obviously a larger and more nuanced discussion of how exactly you can attribute compatibility, reference D&D (the brand name, terms from the rules), etc. while using the CC SRD. Part of which they are also doing. WotC have also provided mechanisms outside of the SRD for referencing non-SRD works (the [URL='https://www.dndbeyond.com/creator-faq']Creator FAQ[/URL]): And a rep from WotC [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/onednd/comments/1k5a5q4/comment/mogphtc/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button']provided some clarity on Reddit[/URL]: [/QUOTE]
