Hi :)
I have been just wondering... if I would like to re-create Exalted (which is really great, but its mechanics if far too heavy) in PbtA format, would anybody be interested?
Also, my biggest problem lies with copyrights. I dunno how similar the PbtA version can be to the regular in order to not create infringement. Perhaps it does not matter as much since it's a fan creation and I am not gonna sell the Ex: PbtA, but still, I wanna be clean on that. So how similar the games can be? The core mechanics is gonna be totally different, for sure, but are the names of Charms/Spells copyrighted too and out of limit?
[I think their "plot" description - like, you know "nobody can hide from Lawgivers, so this charm..." and such - will be mine, but if it is possible, I would like to keep the names of Charms, cause they are truly cool and I like them a lot.]
Plus I have never created a true homebrew material before and English is my second language, please, bear with me :)
