Taking a blog break

Hey folks, I've decided to take a break from the blogging for a bit. There are a couple things I'd like to cover, though, to make things nice and clear.

1) I'm not tired of it. I'm really not, I promise.

2) I'm not done with this world. Quite the contrary, in fact, I'm taking a break so I can focus on other aspects of creating the campaign world, like drawing maps and working on the wiki.

3) I'm coming back, really I am. You'll just have to trust me.

I plan to take two weeks to do other work, and think about some aspects of the world I haven't thought about enough to do posts on yet. Ideally, I'm going to start writing the blog based on what I've done in the wiki, rather than the other way around.

If you're the sort who doesn't use RSS and actually checks the site every day, don't worry and don't check it for the next week. I promise I won't post anything for a week. I also promise I will have a post up before March 2nd.

Until then, farewell.

Magic System Complete (Revised)

The Magic System document can be found here. Comments here will be restricted, please post your comments in the first Magic System post.

Edit: Thanks to the excellent work of Killer Shrike (for all things Magical [in the Hero System, at least], check out his website!), my magic system mechanics have been overhauled and cleaned up. Comments in the first post, if you please.

Further Indecision

I'm mad! I can't keep my ideas straight.

Sadly, because of the relative lack of freedom while designing in D&D, I've decided to take my setting to the Hero System. This will allow me to create elfs that really are like the fey they should be, and dwarfs that are, well, really really different.

It's a work in progress, but if anybody out there happens to be reading, feel free to comment on any of my posts. It's so lonely out here.

Expect me to pay a little more attention to my setting now that Christmas is approaching and I have a touch of free time.

A New Direction

Due to the fact that the game this blog was created for fizzled, I'm turning it into the "blogging about worldbuilding" blog. Specifically, this world.

It will indeed come complete with "Tiddlyspot destroyed my last two hours work" angst.

Thank you, and hopefully somebody's reading.

Coming Soon, To A Theatre Near You...

I'm in the process of creating a campaign-world wiki. Information on the world will be contained there, rather than here. I'll post a link when I feel it's ready to be seen, and it may be updated and changed many times. Players are encouraged to keep in mind the difference between In-Character and Out-Of-Character information, as I will have information on the wiki that is not for the Characters' eyes.
