In my spare time I've been playing with a game/fiction world where there's spellcasters set in the roaring '20's.
It originally started by trying to put GURPS points values to Lawrence Watt-Evans' Ethshar mages.
I didn't actually figure out how to do his mages, but I did figure out a workable method for doing it in GURPS, complete with how his Mage's Guild works (the guild was super easy since the rules are boilerplate on this part).
Because gaming leads to creating scenes, I've been thinking of doing a bit of creative writing with my setting and it occurred to me that having stolen the core precepts of how mages work from Mr. Watt-Evans I should seek permission to use his concepts.
He's got a web page, blog and a link to his email address. Living in the future is neat.
I remember what a pain in the ass it was to send a fan letter to Larry Niven in 1985. This is so much better.
