[QUOTE="ForceUser@Home, post: 261140, member: 4945"] High praise, considering the source! That means a lot to me. My buddies just tune me out when I go on about how awesome your story hour is :) Yes, straight out of OA with one notable exception - Rokugen. I have excised all material even remotely Japanese, though I will likely change the names of some of the Rokugen-specific monsters and PrCs and use them anyway. As for my players...they are an awesome bunch and are always willing to at least [i]try[/i] my wild campaign ideas. I've had a few that were better in concept than execution ;) And living in San Diego among hundreds of thousands of Americans from the Pacific Rim has definitely had an influence on me, not to mention my visits to places such as Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Japan when I was in the military. We of European heritage are staggeringly ignorant of Asian culture, so putting together this campaign was not only a challenge I set for myself, but is a widening of our cultural horizons, every session. It's a lot of fun though :) [/QUOTE]
