Many had walked this ground before us, so we made liberal use of changes posted to forums and so on. This was usually tweaked a bit.

* "Hydromaster113"'s conversions of [http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2jytm?Ptolus-elves-plus-racial-feats#1 elves] and [http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2jytr?Ptoluss-Dwarves-Plus-Racial-Feats#1 dwarves] and [http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2jxqx?Natural-weapon-feats-Ptolus-races-without-ELs#1 others] formed the basis of our race conversions.
==Campaigns==
* We made a pass at using ''Pathfinder's'' [http://www.d20pfsrd.com/gamemastering/arg-creating-new-races race creation system].


== Races ==
===Active===


The biggest change for races is that ''Pathfinder'' doesn't use level adjustments for playable races, but later came up with a "racial point" system.
'''[[Forgotten Suns]]''' is an [[Exalted]] campaign run by [[User:Wordman|Wordman]] in Long Island.


=== Aram ===
'''[[Dissolution]]''' is an occasional <s>D&D 3.5</s> <s>Pathfinder</s> [[Dungeon World]] game set in the [[Ptolus]] campaign setting.


=== Assarai ===
'''[[Enroth]]''' is a unique rules (AD&D based) campaign conceived by [[User:Rgulizia|Russ]].


=== Elf, Shoal ===
===Conceptual===


'''RP''': 10 (Standard)
'''[[Byzantium]]''' a possible play-by-chat game.
* '''Ability Score Racial Traits''' ''0 RP'': Shoal elves are nimble, both in body and mind, but their form is frail. They gain +2 Dexterity, +2 Intelligence, and –2 Constitution.
* '''Size''' ''0 RP'': Shoal Elves are Medium creatures and thus receive no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
* '''Type''' ''0 RP'': Shoal Elves are Humanoids with the elf subtype.
* '''Base Speed''' ''0 RP'': Elves have a base speed of 30 feet.
Defense Racial Traits
* '''Elven Immunities''' ''2 RP'': Shoal elves are immune to magic sleep effects and gain a +2 racial saving throw bonus against enchantment spells and effects.
Feat and Skill Racial Traits
* '''Keen Senses''' ''2 RP'': Shoal elves receive a +2 racial bonus on Perception checks.
* '''Shoal Lore''' ''2 RP'': Shoal elves receive a +1 racial bonus to Profession (sailor), Knowledge (geography) checks, and always treat Swim as a class skill.
Magical Racial Traits
* '''Shoaldream''' ''1 RP'': Shoal elves gain insight from their dreams, if they spend a few minutes contemplating them when they wake. Success on a Wisdom check (DC 15, spellcasters add half their caster level to the roll) grants the shoal elf a +4 insight bonus to the known result of a d20 roll made before the elf next sleeps. At the DM’s discretion, very good rolls may carry a more specific or lasting portent, as simple as duplicating an ''augury'' spell or as complex as a crucial clue concerning the character’s destiny.
Offense Racial Traits
* '''Weapon familiarity''' ''2 RP'': Shoal elves are proficient with longbows (including composite longbows), longswords, rapiers, and shortbows (including composite shortbows), and treat any weapon with the word “elven” in its name as a martial weapon.
Senses Racial Traits
* '''Low-light vision''' ''1 RP'': Shoal elves can see twice as far as humans in conditions of dim light.


=== Elf, Harrow ===
The '''[[Archipelago Conundrum]]''' is a set of characters and a scenario intended to be used at conventions to teach people how to play Exalted: Second Edition.


=== Dwarf, Grailwarden ===
A '''[[Vortex Campaign]]''', attempting to make the inability of people to show up on a regular basis an asset instead of a detriment.


=== Dwarf, Stonelost ===
'''[[Project C]]''' a possible open source, system agnostic fantasy setting.


== Prestige Classes ==
'''[[Spirit of the &AElig;ther]]''' a possible play-by-video-chat ''Spirt of the Century'' game.


* [[Knight of the Pale (Pathfinder)|Knight of the Pale]] - a setting specific prestige class lifted and slightly altered from ''Ptolus''.
'''[[Russ's World]]''' a possible play-by-chat mode open RPG game.
 
A survey of '''[[Thundarr Roleplaying]]'''
 
'''[[Descent Into Pandemonium]]''' is a megadungeon outline resulting from the [https://seanmccoy.substack.com/p/dungeon23 #dungeon23] contest/activity, where you write one room a day for all of 2023.
 
===Inactive===
 
'''[[Greyhawk]]''': a D&D2 game set in the World of Greyhawk, run by [[User:Rgulizia|Russ]].
 
'''[[Control]]''': a [[Heroes Unlimited]] game set in 1970's San Francisco, run by [[User:Rgulizia|Russ]].
 
'''[[Mecca]]''': an In Nomine campaign influenced by 9/11, run by [[User:Rsama|Rob]]
 
The '''[[Reavers]]''' is a gang-based [[Shadowrun]] Third Edition campaign run by [[User:Wordman|Wordman]].
