I like Elves, but I often think they're overdone. As for a game I'm designing that has Elves in it, Modern RPG, I am attempting to give the Elves some fresh blood as it were. I'm doing this by combining real-world mythology with Tolkien/D&D Elves as well as my own knowledge of evolution and...

I'm actually learning how to play Savage Worlds right now and working on getting a game of Modern up and running on Discord/Roll20! I really want to get a game of Misspent Youth! Otherwise, I'm designing the rest of the Book of Elves for Modern and Lex Draconis for the Modernverse!

The exact schedule can be discussed and possible changed before / during Session 0. Genre: Urban Fantasy /...

A bit of a joke. Just that it is a game with an emphasis on roleplaying. It's a modern Earth setting in which magic and monsters have always existed.

The game is Modern. It's gritty Urban Fantasy with heavy emphasis on "fluff" - setting, species and cosmological lore. It also has an emphasis on roleplaying over dungeon crawling, but with plenty of room for action. It uses the d20 with familiarity to pathfinder (1st edition), with a lean into...

Elves are pretty but I plan to add a nice slurry of ugly ones (mechanics for them, too!) as well. :) Mechanics will include new Elfen spells, feats and a few class specializations and a lot of other stuff. Thanks for the pledge! I've seen the math for those and it's an interesting concept...

Heck yeah. And you're right, now that I'm looking at it. It is one-sided. I'll add some variations to the page soon. Thank you for pointing that out for me. I appreciate you noticing. I often misspell it, myself. The capitalization of the O in the middle throws me off a lot! :)

But, no more! With the beautiful Book of Elves, the secrets and mysteries of the Elfen Court have been revealed and the gates of Tir Na Nog cracked wide open. With this Modern RPG setting guide and supplement, you will gain new knowledge, role playing opportunities, hooks and lore, access to...

Ulauri: Such as? Dumarest: Here I am. Answering questions. :)

It's quoted properly on the product page, if its any consolation. ;)

It's a familiar d20 system with a lot of twists that make it quite different than Pathfinder, even if it uses it as a base of operations, so to speak.

I've never played either of those games so all I can say is that it's a game that I designed to be a game that I, as a horror lover, would want to play (and have played many times).
