The primary difficulty in integrating it is whether the campaign setting posesses a culture of mounted barbarians famed for their archery. If not, the class could be retooled as a secret society or brotherhood among a barbarian tribe. Alternately, a single race, perhaps elves or orcs, might have a similar class as elite warriors in their bands.  In any case, the archer of the steppes should present few difficulties to most GMs in other campaigns."Moonwitch (PG: Wizards, Bards, and Sorcerers): "The Moonwitch requires the existence of an evil diety associated with the Moon, lycanthropy, and magic to be used in another campaign.  At the very least lycanthropes and other shapeshifting creatures must serve the diety. If no such diety exists, the GM should create some other patron or unifying ethos or the moonwitches as a prerequisite for entry. The prestige class likewise expects the GM to use invocation benefits (See Div&Def et. al.) in his campaign.  If he does not, he will need to find some other prerequisite that shows the character's devotion to the moonwitches."I chose these two examples to show one class that is very easy to incorporate in another campaign and one that has some difficulties.  If I was running a realms campaign, the Archer of the Steppes fits right in with my vision of some of the tribes inhabiting the Shaar.  Really no alteration needs to be done.  Moonwitches, on the other hand, would need to have their name changed to Nightwitches (or something similar), I'd change the invocation prerequisite and spell focus prereq with Shadow Weave Magic and perhaps change the Madness blessing with some sort of darkness effect.  Voila, you have a great witchy servant of Shar.I think S&SS make it rather easy to port these classes to other settings.</blockquote>
