I have a few more questions on reference materials... First here are a set of assumptions on my part. I want to do D20 netbooks that are 100% OGL and d20 STL compliant. Most of my work will be 100% Open Content and I am doing this for free. I also want the strictest interpretations of the law. And I am not looking for cheats or work arounds. Ok. 1. Can I list an article for "Dragon" magazine, or any other RPG magazine, as a source? It would not be a conversion, simply a reference. 2. How can I go about converting/referencing another work that belongs to another company, but is not open, say the Complete Wizard's Handbook for 2nd Ed, in my new d20 work? I am assuming that at that point I would need the publisher's permission. Now given that the said publisher is WotC and they have stated on their website that conversions of older material are fine to do as long as I only post what is converted. Say I wanted to update a kit into a class or a multi-class path, for example the Wokani from the Glantri Gazetteer. Can I say what you would need to do to emulate this kit as long as I avoid reproducing any of the original text? 3. Public Domain information that also is covered. For example if I wanted to do a multi-class path of the Incantatrix that was featured in Dragon 90 and some Realms books. I do not plan to copy it, or even convert it, it is just that I want to use the name. Now I am sure the name itself is not PI because Incantatrix is just Italian for enchantress or witch. Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks!
