Welcome to the world. Make a Reflex save for half damage.

Hey all! To anyone who might be reading this I want to let this serve as an introductory bit of sorts. My name is Caleb Aylsworth, at present a game design student at the University of Advancing Technology in Tempe, Arizona. I was playing my NES at 5 and was playing roelplaying games at 14, so I guess you could say I have a bit of experience. I tend to focus on mechanics as far as design goes. If you like what you see on this blog, remember that the things I'll be doing for work look around ten times more professional and that some of this content may not have been playtested for balance/fun. Use at your own risk and hopefully have fun with it. Since it's at the top of the site I will back this up: My permission is required to use an idea from this blog in a money-making enterprise. If you plan on using it without making any money from it, then go right ahead. I say this because some of the really good ideas I've had have turned up in things I've read weeks later, and the time scheduling for this could be edited, but I'm honestly as proficient at html as an AD&D Priest is with bladed weapons, so I'll be keeping it basic.

Legalese aside, this blog contains homebrew material as well that is balanced with itself. Such material will be marked according to the campaign setting it is from (Currenly running two groups in a setting called Arul which is proving to be fun and exhausting). I play Pathfinder most actively, and have played Shadowrun 4th edition, Savage Worlds, GURPS 4th edition, Hackmaster 5th Edition and AD&D off of the top of my head.

I'm also a big fan of fighting games and history so expect to see some of that up here as well.

Keep Gaming, fellows!
