[QUOTE="RedCliff, post: 292866, member: 5829"] [b]Modular Legend Book?[/b] Just a random thought, but I thought I'd throw out a book idea about these legendary classes. Since they appear so popular, might there be a book devoted just to them sometime in the future? Modular settings have been done (Freeport, Malhavok's upcoming Book of Eldridge Might III will be all about mystical locations to drop into a campaign regardless of the world), why not a book on modular legends? The legend of the Adamantine Warrior, for example, seems perfectly suited to drop into any campaign that has a barbaric culture that finds itself at war with any frequency. An entry for this class in a book like this would expound a little more on the legend of the warrior (maybe cite the first known one, and a successor or two, and list some of their deeds, and how these became part of the trials) and then list the class. Maybe give a few tips on how to integrate this into a world and what implications having a legend like this might have on a culture. Obviously the Adamantine Warrior's been done; I just cite it as an example everyone can relate to. Stories and legends are part of what makes worlds so cool, and they vastly enrich campaign worlds. A book like this would be useful to GMs even if they didn't want to use the legendary classes attached to them (though I can't imagine why anyone wouldn't ). For those that do decide to include them, it gives PCs the chance to become true world shakers, stepping up to fill the roles they've heard the bards sing of all their lives. Just thought I'd toss that out as a small wish list. :) [/QUOTE]
