[QUOTE="Snake87, post: 4952344, member: 85647"] You are correct (Marius Delphus), I didn't really understand the different in Copyrights and Trademarks until you specified. I got really confused when I read the US Copyright office website, so I really appreciate you clearing things up. With that being said, I don't think I really have any copyright issues. Morrus, to answer your question, my plan is to make an entirely new play system that uses similar mechanics to the D&D 3.5. I actually have been working on it for quite a while, that is why I wanted to ask these questions before I released anything. I was really happy when I found these forums as I had a lot of questions and I couldn't really find any answers. Back on the topic of monsters, to make sure I understand this correctly, essentially the name isn't the issue it is more the method and story that wizards uses to portray their monsters. Such as their version of the Troll and Orcs. I was going to look at other Tabletop RPG products (books, minatures, etc) and see what is and isn't used (like was already suggested). Unfortunately, I have made my Kobolds reptillian, but they are very different from wizards. [/QUOTE]
