OSPREY

The Open Source Roleplaying Engine

by Christopher A. Goodwin

Welcome to the Open Source Paper Roleplaying Engine Y*, also known as Osprey.

NOTE:

The Osprey RPG now has a new home at http://www.ospreyrpg.com. Go there. They have a good site going.

This is a roleplaying system that I have designed the bare bones of, but am releasing to the public to use as you see fit.  Feel free to distribute it, modify it, sell it, hack at it, whatever.  The idea is that all this spreading around, hacking, and so on will make it better.

This is very much a work in progress.  Feel free to make comments or changes if you think it could be done a better way.

A mailing list for discussion of the game and its design is located at http://www.onelist.com/.  The name of the list is osprey@onelist.com and it is located under the Games; Roleplaying Games category.  To subscribe, go here:

Where Is It?

The current versions of Osprey, and related items, are:
  1. The Current Version  Now distributed under the GPL.
  2. The Test Campaign.
  3. The Osprey Power rules, such as they are.
  4. The PDF version of the game.  It varies textually from the HTML version; at some point we're going to merge the two.
These make up the "official Osprey distribution" in whatever respects there is one.  We are looking at having a .zip and a .tar.gz distribution together; at the moment, I don't have the time to keep an archive current.
