John Rogers writes for Manual of the Planes

[arscott]

From his blog:

john: Somewhat off-topic, but our beloved Kung Fu Monkey can add another notch to his belt: He's listed in the playtester credits for 4th Edition D&D.

(...Waiting for June 6th when my preorder will ship...)

For what it's worth, I also just wrote the Feywild entry for the new Manual of the Planes. Game design may pop up here a bit more in future posts. I'll also do a special geeks-only D&D post on release day, spoiling my feedback on the system.

For those who don't know, John Rogers (JonRog1 on these forums) is the physicist/stand-up comic/screenwriter/comic book writer wholly or partially responsible for:

-The new Transformers Movie
-The Blue Beetle comic book series.
-And the Drunk Southern Girls with Guns storyhour (if you haven't read this, READ IT NOW!)

I'm officially sold on the MotP.

I am also officially sold on that product...although it might have to go down as an Xmas present request...

His blog is always well worth a read, by the way, for non-gamers and gamers alike.

I first read this as Roger Waters wrote for the MoP. Then I read it as John Waters wrote for the MoP. Either would have blown my mind. This is good, but a little anti-climactic, now.

You're in luck, Kwalish. Roger Waters and John Waters actually wrote the sections for the Astral Sea and the Far realm, respectively.

I would've thought the negative material might be more in line with Mr. Waters.

Apparently, the first was bassist for an old stoner band. The other made some weird movies.
