\chapter{How we Found Basic Roleplaying}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At the time that there was the Open Gaming License (OGL) issues with the
|
||
|
|
{\it Dungeons \& Dragons}, system reference document (SRD), where it
|
||
|
|
looked like Wizards of the Coast (WotC), were changing things to make
|
||
|
|
the license anything but open, I decided I wanted to see if I could
|
||
|
|
make a {\it Humans \& Hovels}, or whatever we were going to end up
|
||
|
|
calling it in the end.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I spent some time in World Anvil setting some stuff up, but ended
|
||
|
|
up pretty much giving up on that specific thing, but part of my trying
|
||
|
|
to create that, resulted in my looking and finding the {\it Basic
|
||
|
|
Roleplaying} SRD, which was what we were going to try to see what
|
||
|
|
we could do with that.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After having looked at it, and really deciding that it was something
|
||
|
|
that would be interesting to work with, along with some other games
|
||
|
|
that fall more or less within the system, we ended up getting an updated
|
||
|
|
version.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At the time of writing this, we checked out Chaosium's itch.io offerings
|
||
|
|
as we'd spotted a new {\it Call of Cthulhu}, free handouts pack, and
|
||
|
|
spotted the (which we'd seen before) {\it Basic Roleplaying}, free
|
||
|
|
character sheets pack.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This basically brings us to wanting to use that free character sheets
|
||
|
|
pack to offer people who may want to play with us, the ability to create
|
||
|
|
characters.
