This was my original roleplaying game world. At first, I ran it using first edition AD&D - back in the dark ages, when the PHB first came out, but starting before the publication of the DMG. Then, The Fantasy Trip came out - TFT, the prehistoric ancestor to GURPS. I killed off all the gods, fast-forwarded the world a thousand years, and switched systems.
TFT went out of print, and I had developed a fat wad of house rules. So I created a “TFT Private Edition” - a rewrite that incorporated my various house-rules. Here are the PDF files:
The Book of Tables: A brief guide to filling out the character sheet, plus the tables of talents, spells, languages, races, and weapons.
The Book of Combat: Combat rules
The Book of Magic: Spellcasting rules
Character Creation and Development: Character creation details, and the non-combat rules
A Character Record Sheet (two sided)
A Players’ Guide to the Etan Campaign: An introduction to the world for the players
Encyclopedia Etanica: miscellaneous scribblings
Currently I’m rewriting the rules again to create “System Etan” - a home-brew game that’s heavily based on TFT, but even more thoroughly customized to fit my world of Etan. And here are the first parts of that project: The new
Combat book, the new
Tables book, and a new
Character Sheet.
I’ve also drawn some maps for Etan, using CorelDraw.
