    Default Magic Monograph---2nd Try

    Ok, after long back and forth with Dustin and Charlie, some of my Mono has been salvaged though the overall idea behind it is completely different from where it started.

    I've stripped out the spells and rituals from my previous write up and now I need people who would be interested in playtesting them (and the rest after I've finished writing it).

    If you are interested in trying some new spells in your campaign, or just giving it a read through and providing feedback, please PM me.

    I will probably start with a small group and see how it goes from there, possibly opening it up more if there is interest/need.

    I'm glad your work hasn't been totally abandoned. Good luck.

    Thanks for the encouragement! Its not what I was planning on writing, but at least I'll salvage something good from the original project and hopefully it will be full of awesome win.

    As to new blurb....

    Grimoire (working title)

    Within the pages of this tome are the formulas for a plethora of new spells to satisfy your most voracious spell-slingers. Wizardry and Sorcery are treated to a multitude of new magics, while additional spells are included for several of the magic systems contained in Basic Magic. In addition, new Ritual magic, as well as new Ritual rules, are included that work with all the existing systems.

    30K wordcount (48+ pages)
    Estimated time of submission to Chaosium-2 months depending on playtest and revisions

    Sounds great. This will be on my shopping list. I am really glad you have managed to resolve the issue and find a way through. :thumb:

    Sounds interesting. I am currently updating a little fantasy world which I created some time ago, using the rules of RQ 3, and I like the new magic rules a lot. But there are not many spells...

    I would like to take a look into it...

    I will send you a PM.

    There was a month delay that kind of killed my momentum, but as of this weekend I got back into the swing of things.

    I'm getting some great feedback from my playtesters and the product will be immeasurably better for it. Sadly, it won't be finished as quickly as I had originally hoped. But it is still alive!
