| #2grimgrinMay 12, 2008 17:32:05 | It shouldn't be too hard since all the elements of Willow are classic fantasy pieces already created for D&D. Daikini would be the standard Humans Newlyns are Halflings (or Dwarves if you want a tougher race). If you choose Dwarf you may want to replace "Stonecunning" with a consponding rural, urban, or river version (Forestcunning, Citycunning, or Boatcunning). Brownie are just like Forest Gnomes Storylines would be standard fantasy fare: enigmatic prophecies, viscious dragons, evil sorceresses, heroic warriors, clever wizards, wicked queens, battling armies. If you want specifics convert a classic hero tale (Iliad, Odyssey, Tasks of Hercules, Jason and the Argonauts, Tales of Camelot, Sinbad the Sailor, etc.) Spells of Willow are standard generic spell castings. You might incorporate new magic objects like stone acorns, telekinesis wands, and such. Willow initially was a stage magician (rogue or bard with Perform (Stage Magician) and sleight of hand).
