One small thing about your reference to the AAA corp. FASA isn't running
the list. They aren't going to incorporate what is going on in the list
to their world. Most of us have known about that for a long time. I knew
about it 2 months after I joined here. And that a little over 2 years ago.

To add to this, shadowtk is a story involving their world. A massive one.
Take a look at T$Rs novels. No DM is going to follow every little thing
they put out. They are going to tailor it to there needs. The authors of
the books themselves conviently forget about certain rules. For example in
the cleric quintet, Cadderly casts 4 seventh level cleric spells in the span
of one combat. He worships an intermediate god who can only grant up to
_6th_ level spells. Authors break the rules. T$R abound with examples of it.
And you can find them in almost every campaign world the publish. From
Ravenloft to Forgotten realms. (change the to they in the above sentence)

Mike
