Bibliography

This SRD is a cobbled-together game in the folk tradition of homebrew gaming tables with various ideas, mechanics, inspirations, and philosophies borrowed (looted) from treacherous delves into blogs, forums, chat groups, adventures, and systems. A complete catalogue of those would be impossible due to the ephemeral nature of memory and the litigious natures of certain organizations who don’t even like to be mentioned.
