I added religious requirements to some (for example, Mages of the Arcane Order must be worshippers of Isis, Elemental Savants must worship Thoth or Hermes, and True Necromancers must worship Anubis or Hecate, only Khemites could be Red Avengers).I have Oriental Adventures and Swashbuckling Adventures- although most of the classes and creatures would be inappropriate, I'm considering allowing the use of some feats from these books.Spells and Spellcraft, Seafarer's Handbook: Not sure on what to use from these.Any suggestions would be appreciated.</blockquote>
