Its not an issue of money Hasbro and WotC have more than enough money to pay for what they want, its an issue of return on investment. If the return isn't going to be greater than the investment, or even if it just break even, then they wont bother. Its the unfortunate reality of business.You could contract a company, and they pay for the license to sell your stuff (which is what Wolf's Lair does for HeroLab), but then you're running up against Hasbro rather than WotC management and presumably Hasbro management wants what they think is a fair price. There's also the problem that a license for just a character genertor might at some point be construed as electronic entertainment of some kind which might crap on any plans to license the rights to video games or who knows what else. This is incidentally why Wizards cracked down hard on Star Wars RPG character generators, their license didn't include any electronic stuff at all, since at the time electronic options for Star Wars were entirely held by LucasArts.</blockquote>
