Changes

An attempt to make consolidate my incoherent ideas into a coherent gothic/cosmic lite horror and urban fantasy setting. Inspired by 19th and early 20th century horror/sci-fi/pulp fiction (Jule Verne, H.G. Wells, Mary Shelley, H.P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allen Poe) and modern gaslamp/urban fantasy/spy fiction (Girl Genius, The Laundry Files, the X-Files, the Dresden Files, Murdoch Mysteries).

==Setting GoalsRule Sets==Creating Going with the OGL SRD 3.5, because that is the framework with which I am most familiar and which has a lowlot of material available to it (including Pathfinder). I also will try to implement Epic 6 with some of the higher level materials to preserve the intrinsic hazards of horror and mystery.  ===Sanity/mid-power game for gothic Taint===Need to rework Sanity and Taint; both are intriguing and genre appropriate mechanics, but making these work is the challenge. Making Sanity or Stress a measure of willpower, tying it both to spellcasting and cosmic horror style scenariosemotional/mental resilience, seems the best path to go.
