I (so far) found an omission in the Fauna/Swamp entry for "Dragonsnake":
Under "Habitat" the second sentence reads "The corvenians" ....
Just wondering what the corvenians do with them

EDIT: also found this in Flora/Desolation:
1: The True Name  "Jumair" is listed for both the Whip Vine and the Cloaking Bush.  Does both these plants have the same True Name or just an oversight?

2: Flora/Grasslands: the "Landwing"? is it a "Landwig" as listed in the entry for it, or is it "Landwing" as in main list?

I won't speak for David, but generally a mention of the site and a link would be acceptable. I did the same thing for my group site.

Good luck with your gaming.

Thanks, Golanthius. I just wanted some guidelines on how to go about it, and after looking at your Google group, I've a pretty good idea on it.

Hi David,

Just wondering if it would be alright with you if I used some parts of your website (maps, nation descriptions) over on my private website, to provide background for my gaming group.  Do you prefer me to just attribute said portions to the Khoras website, provide links, or what? I am not using it to make a profit or anything like that, and the general public will not have access to the site.

Thanks, Yellow Eagle

I noticed that Orrojek and Tyrrenkor have the same image: It looks like the Tyrrenkor image matches the description, but the new one for Orrojek doesn't look quite right for a technologically advanced city/nation.

Also: is there anything information on the Border Clans of Qeshir?

Dragonquest is another system that has a skill based system. All characters can have what skill sets that they like and, as they rank their skills, by putting EP into them, they get better at them and gain more abilities ... healer for instance .. a Rank 0 healer can diagnose by 'Lay on hands' but they have to be rank 3 to actually heal fatigue or endurance damage and Rank 8 to ressurect.

The other thing about DQ is that mages can belong to one of 16 odd Colleges that have their own set of spells, general or special knowledge. All mages start off with knowing the General Knowledge spells of their college at rank 0 - the higher the rank the higher the cast chance of getting the spell to work and the more powerful the spell is (incidently the Drellis Effect works great with DQ as it adds or subtracts from the Cast Chance). Special Knowledge spells have to be taught to the PC which costs money, time .. and more experience.

For those that don't know .. Dragonquest was originally put out by SPI about the same time D&D first came out. TSR acquired it later, but did nothing with it so it's been largely forgotten .. except by enthusiasts.. look up www.dragonquest.org.nz for stuff and links ...

But yeah .. that's one way of setting up PCs with skill sets ...

Yeah, I agree, DQ is the best skill-based system out there, despite it being discontinued.  I am running a DQ game now, using Khoras as the world/setting.  It is a lot of work to convert to DQ, but it is worth it.  I have expanded it beyond 3rd edition and included various things from across the internet, much of it from here.
