Version 3 is out!


Hi, I just wanted to let you all know that I've made a lot of changes to the Player Options document today and reuploaded it. This is the third version of the document up to date and I hope it will be the last, but there might still be some updates whenever I find typos or make other small edits.

What's in this update?

  • Added an illustrated cover to the start of the document.
  • Added the "Tisenyi" subrace for humans, along with new lore on the kingdom of Tisenya. There are a few Tisenyi NPC's in Chapter 6, so I figured I should add it as an option for players too.
  • Added more detail to the lore of the "Islander" subrace for humans.
  • Updated the appendix containing character names. The Abyssal and Tisenyi languages were added and the name lists for all previously available languages were updated. I'm especially happy with the Varran and Tisenyi name selections.
  • Removed the illustration at the start of the "Player races" section. Its quality didn't match that of the rest of the book, so I was worried it might give the wrong impression to newcomers.
  • Added a few new illustration edited from the book proper into the document to illustrate the playable races.
  • Updated the layout throughout the document. This includes changing the fonts and formatting to match that of the book, as well as shifting many of the sections around the pages to make room for new content.
  • Found and removed several typos, punctuation errors and instances of inconsistent formatting throughout the document.
  • Removed the OGL license from the back of the document since it's no longer required and added the new copyright notice to the start of the document instead.

The book itself is coming along. I don't want to say I'm almost done with it, but there isn't that much left to do, so I'm cautiously optimistic. My main task with it is currently proofreading, or rather gathering and implementing feedback from proofreaders I've recruited for the project. There are still a few sections left to finish, whether by virtue of missing writing or illustrations, but overall, most of the text and art throughout the book is done.

Until next time ~
