Like Gurth would say: don't even think not to do this :)

Seriously, if your work is _based_ on copyrighted material and you acknowledge
it clearly, there should be no problem. Anyway, you are not doing it for money,
so everything is more elastic.

But, there are people that don't let you use a character from one of their
novels to play in a _private_ sr session. No joke. It happened to me.

Further details on request.

Bye, Paolo
