OD&D and Taking a Look at Other Peoples Blogs - 015

I ran across this wonderful blog a few days ago and now have a chance to talk about it a little:

Go visit Great & Small: The Roleplaying Game Of Animal Fantasy

This blog is brand new this year and it is already a must read. Go there look around and read this essay: What Is Animal Fantasy? He talks about several different kinds. Mine, which I will post on this blog by and by, was inspired by Brian Jacques' Redwall series. He has a completely different and fantastic take on it and I look forward to seeing the finished product.

In addition follow this link and take a look : Revels & Rhymes - A "World's 1st" Fantasy RPG That Never Was. Where he says:

During that time, I began to wonder: what would the world's first roleplaying game look like if it had been invented by a Shakespearean theater troupe instead of a wargaming club?

Revels & Rhymes: First Folio -- The Original Shakespearean Fantasy Roleplaying Rules
As he says these rules are not complete and have never been play tested. But look at them! I hope at some point he decides to finish them.

Who is King Truffle IV? His name is Robert F. Mason according to the above blog and let's encourage him to keep posting!
