What the heck is "the SRD"?

[estevans_lackey]

Charles Ryan, Editor, RPG R&D at WotC, comments on SRD updates -- "I get the impression that some of you would like to see the Vitality Point/Wound Point system become part of the SRD

Can anybody tell me what an SRD is?

Thanks

The SRD is the System Resource Document. It provides the baseline rules foundation for the d20 system.

Or, essentially, it's the PHB, MM, and DMG for free on the internet

Check out http://www.d20reviews.com/Eric/d20guide/d20intro.htm for more info on the d20 system if you're new around here.
