[QUOTE="seskis281, post: 2961608, member: 41593"] Lol - What can I say about the Avatar... I likes my cool looking wizards. I live in Wisconsin now after living in Louisiana. Who am I? Just a theatre professor who loves old school fantasy gaming - was into it as a youth in the early 80's then came back to it in 2000 and ran lots of good games with a core group while doing my PhD. Haven't had time or luck in putting a new group together up here yet, but have a lot of plans and ideas. I've been seriously working on a World Setting called Ilshara for C&C (but easily adaptable to any system) that I'm pitching around but will probably end up publishing for free myself on web - it's written in the spirit of original Greyhawk with a couple of twists - "What if humans really are the source of evil and imbalance in the world?" - Gods and religion waning, the discovery of psionics (which is my own system, non-class based so that any human, elf, half-elf characters with enough intelligence, constitution and experience can begin exploring mind powers - just making it darn long and hard to do so), and a group known as the Sythgar which emmulate the Sith of Star Wars but in a medieval fantasy setting.

My sense was the OP was looking for a mainly archetypal fantasy system that could be multi-genre adapted. If he is heavily medieval fantasy base with the option to adapt, I still recommend C&C, especially with the "genre" info. Trolls are promising in the upcoming supplemental Castle Keepers Guide. If the OP actually is going to have a more even spread or even more heavily sci-fi etc., then certainly he wants to look at True20 as well.
