I have created this entirely new game that is based off of Dungeons & Dragons. It is called the Magi Chronicles RPG. Check it out!
Magi Chronicles RPG
I am putting on constant updates on the site, so it is still under construction.
If you want to, you can sign up to become a member on the Magi Chronicles RPG.
Why not put this in the house rule section. I would PEACH it, but I'm unfamiliar with 3.x.
The reason is because that doesn't really belong there. The Magi Chronicles is an entirely new game. It uses similar rules from D&D, but it is NOT D&D.
It is a lot to digest though so I have to read into it further to give it a real review.
okay well I just checked it out and left a couple of comments. BTW very cool how u have it set up to send membership info. Anyway, I didn't look into it long enough to do a in depth review but it seems like its basically 3.5 ish so far from what I read. Obviously a lot of work and time went into it so I can appreciate that. The site looks okay, aside from some spelling errors but I'm no one to point fingers concerning grammer!

Yeah- I still have a long way to go from where I have started. As long as I have completed the Races and Classes though, the easier it will be.
Wow. You made a Jedi class? Hope you got permission from George Lucas, otherwise you're in deep ****.
Same name, but different setting and powers.

Well, what else am I gonna call them? The 'Uberly Awesome; Lightsabre- flailing; Force- driven; Heroes of the future?'
Huff... Huff- that's a mouthful...

Clan Luk@ss can be quite ... determined.
Just ask the guy who did leet subtitles for the Episode 3 preview ...
...Oooor, use Cheddar Monks. :P
What?
Are you trying to make fun of me, boy?
In all honesty, I'm a D&D (whoa, now where have I seen that acronym before...) fan, so I suggested it because I liked how it was funny, yet fitting.
Being able to handle guns, drive vehicles, help and harm others? Sounds like a gamer's true paradise, huh? :D
The Magi Chronicles is basically a d20 Future. Get the picture now?
Seriously, your game isn't the next GURPS and you're not the next Steve Jackson. A degree of humility and humour is a necessity for an indie designer if he wants to succeed. Otherwise, you end up being impervious to constructive criticism due to having your head in the clouds. ;)
Yes, you're taking yourself too seriously. :P

I am not Indie. Watch what you say, next time- you might offend somebody when you least expect it.
Please. Unless you get published and sell, you ARE indie. It's just a way of saying you haven't reached mainstream success yet. Which is something EVERYONE who's talented goes through. It's not something to be ashamed of.
EDIT: Oh, I thought he was just misunderstanding the term, not actually being insulted by it.
Carry on ... :P

Also, what is GURPS? I don't have internet access at home (give a big thanks to the economy).
Really? WHOAOMG, ALERT THE INTERNET, ARMISAEL IS OFFENDING SOMEONE BY USING A LABEL THAT DEFINES SUCCESS!

I did not know what Indie meant. I thought you were saying that I was an Indian, or something!
sorry about the miscommunication... Let me know what youi are talking about. I'm not a person that likes to 'text- talk'.
...Man, what do they teach in school these days? Here. Pretty much THE game to look up to. And this is the guy you want to be. Heck, I want to be like him, too, though I'm not as good at design as him by a long shot. :P
Sheesh! Why does everybody have to abbreviate everything that they say? That just ruins the whole concept of speaking fluid english!
Now that I know what Indie means...

Wow, you need to

2) stop taking yourself so seriously.

It's just something I can't help but fathom why a lot of people like to 'ruin' society. I know that Ruin is probably not a good word to say, but you know what I mean by that.
I just don't like the approach that most people have taken in society today. Everybody has become more cynical than before, and I don't know why...

You are flipping out over nothing, and you didn't respond very well to what little critique was already placed, regarding the whole Jedi thing. There are tons of other names you can come up with that fit the same basic concept. Runic Knights, ect.
You got offended by being called an indie, and are still throwing a minor tantrum for being called one.
Seriously. Chill. Don't try to deflect the conversation. Just chill. If you are going to be this sensitive, you aren't one to make an RPG. RPG's have to be critiqued BRUTALLY so that way they can be good. Multiple times. If you're going to get this upset over a few minor things, then you'll probably have a full blown explosion when someone looks at your work and points out flaws in it.
And, you also come off as slightly arrogant, because of the way that you take yourself so seriously. It's not just in this thread, but back when you were a bit more active as well.
If you ask someone to PEACH your works, you can't get angry over it, and getting upset for being called an indie (which is what you are) is just ridiculous.
EDIT: and your thing about "ruining society" is also ridiculous. Abbreviations are not the bane of society and existence.
And people have always been cynics. Don't go on about how society is "so decadent" and how things were "so much better" back in the day.I just don't like the approach that most people have taken in society today. Everybody has become more cynical than before, and I don't know why...
That sounds familiar... didn't Plato say something like that?

I'm okay with 'flaws'- it's what makes it better.
I just thought that Cheddar Monks were a very bizarre name to call a class. A Cheddar Monk... a lot of laughs, but the name doesn't sound too appeasing for a large crowd, you know.
And I just don't want to end up like a junkie. I like being myself, rather than taking someone elses image and be like them.
I just can't stand why lots of people like to be like a famous celebrity. I guess its because they don't want to deal with everyday stress.

Point 1: Flaws. Really? So having useless abilities makes the game better? Honestly, I think that it's better if ALL options are good. And, you want this to be critiqued. If you want parts of it to be like that, then why bother even have anyone look it over?
Point 2: The Cheddar Monk thing is obviously a joke. You need a better sarcasm detector.
Point 3: Junkie? Wait. I never talked about you going out to get a fix. Another case of over-reaction from you here. From your posts, you have your set "vision" of how the world should be, and anyone who deviates from your view is "immoral" and it's "society's fault"
Point 4: When did anyone act like a celebrity? I didn't see that happening. You're just reverting to your argument about how society is so horrible.

Example: A lot of girls like Hannah Montana, right? There are some of those fans that want to be like her.
You get where I'm going with that, right?
Drugs have a big influence on today's society. I solely blame it on the Drug dealers and those that produce the drugs. Obviously, they are made for medicinal purposes, but what about Cigarrettes, or Alcohol? Those weren't made for medicinal purposes- they were made for enjoyment- for that split second high. Who would like to pay for something that only gives them that slpit second good feeling? To me, that's a lot of money down the drain. That is what I do not want to be- a person that has a craving for drugs. That's my definition of a Junkie- someone who craves drugs.

Yes, I get your point, but it has no relevance to the current discussion. I merely pointed out that you come off as arrogant, and then you create a self defense argument involving drugs, wannabe's and other things like that.
But no one called you a junkie.
Did I say that someone called me a Junkie? Oops...
My point is: I LIKE WHO I AM, AND NOBODY"S GONNA STOP ME!!! :evillaugh
You guys make good 'pen pals.' Have a Dozen cookies, baneofelves and EscherEnigma. Post them in your sigs! :D

So, along with taking yourself less seriously, you need to stop looking for insults. People can always better themselves, by enhancing their positive traits, while eliminating their negative traits.

I'll take that advice with stride. Thanks!

How about four more cookies for you for being such a big help?

On a diet. So, I really don't have the time to look through your work, but my first step if I was you would be to get rid of the Jedi. Geroge Lucas has copyright on that, and violation of copyright laws is not something that you want to get involved in.

... I see. Now I understand. The train of thought here can only be represented using non-euclidian geometry.

You understand? Then maybe you can help me out here a bit. This poster has me thoroughly confused.

True, but the Jedi in the Magi Chronicles have different abilities than the ones in Star Wars. Plus, different races occupy the role of Jedi in the Magi Chronicles.
In any case, I need to think of a good name to replace the name Jedi. You can help, too.
Names:

I'm also confused on that last part. What is "non-euclidian geometry?"
Armisael: Possibly, possibly.

Fancy math stuff. I expect that kind of stuff from him, though, cuz he's smart. You are the confusing one, not him.
Maybe it's an elaborate trolling attempt? The best ones rile people up while never being actually offensive.

Who are you talking to? Me, baneofelves, or EscherEnigma? Please clarify...

He's talking aboot you.
Xeadin, I need to save all of my creative juices for MY RPG. It's not too hard, just separate yourself from the image of the Jedi, and go from there. Example: Runic Knights. Just off the top o' me head.
Armisael: Possibly, possibly.
Runic Knights... hmmm. That's a possibility.
Hmmm...
Swordmage? (WotC)
Runic Soldier?
Force Scholars?
