Apotheosis Update

[thegreyelf]

I've received a number of questions about this recently so I thought I'd let you all know I have begun putting my notes together for this. It may be renamed to either The Dreaming Age or The Wasted Lands, as I understand there is already a game out there called "Apotheosis."

There is no release date for this as yet. It's going to be awhile. I've only just started cobbling it all together. If you want to know what it will look like, however, take my Age of Conan stuff, mix it with my Wasted Lands stuff, remove demihuman races, change the gods to high-powered NPC warriors, thieves, assassins, sorcerers, and emperors, shake well, and season to taste.

My plan at this point is to include brief writeups on the world in the core book, then eventually release full world books for each area, which will be largely system free so that they can be used with any system you like....to a point. Each will likely, for example, include monsters with S&S-specific writeups and generic notes about their power levels for use when converting to other fantasy systems. I'll have to kick it around a bit first and see.

I also need about $5,000 to get it done properly, and who knows when that will happen.

But there you have it. The Apotheosis of Elf Lair Games has begun

Update: The ability score section is complete, as are the cultural benefits/drawbacks, and the following character classes are done:

-Sorcerer (plus Necromancer and Druid Elite Paths)*
-Warrior (plus Borderer Elite Path)
.....*still need to finish spell lists/descriptions.
-Multiclassing rules
-Languages
-Alignment

Long way to go, yet. Fortunately the rules themselves are coming pretty much straight out of S&S, so that's a big chunk covered.

Thanks for the updates: I'll keep an eye on it!

Character classes are done, rules copied over, and I've begun tweaking them for Apotheosis.

Still need to do spell lists. That's exceptionally tedious, so it'll be put off for a bit...

Dude that sounds.... awesome! Please keep us posted!

Magic is going to take a lot of work. I need to completely rebuild the spell lists, which is going to require a great deal of SRD consultation, formatting, and tweaking.
