Greetings,
I started working on a Fist of the Northstar rpg last year using ToB and Starwars Saga, strangely enough that was pretty much 4th Edition. So I have recently picked it up again and started to make it balanced with 4th edition.
If you are not familiar with Fist of the Northstar, also known as Hokuto no Ken by us fanboys, then you can check out the wiki or more importantly Heart of Madness. This game is taking place 100 years after the war that destroyed the world.

I have created two primary classes for this game, Hokuto Initiate and Nanto Initiate. I called them that because I have combined the similar martial arts into single classes and make the players choose a style, much like a warlock picking a pact.
I have created three races all based on humans then modified.

A formatted website version is posted here

So far I only have the starter stuff posted. currently working on Powers all the way to 30.

D&D of any edition would not be my first choice for a Fist of the North star game. I'd go with Weapons of the Gods for the system and make a new setting and new Kung-Fu for that.
