System Notes: AD&D Specific

        Over the years, I have created adjunct rules for the AD&D system to suit the tastes of myself and my players, as well as to fit certain aspects of the Trinalia setting. The following documents are the latest versions of adaptations of the AD&D 2nd edition rules to the campaign. 
        Note that I use the AD&D Player's Option books; DMs who come here in search of material for their game may want to keep this in mind.

What's Here:
Compiled House Rules (wpd format) (rtf format)- At last, most of the niggly little rules I use for my game in one document, not including rules in very specific or exhaustive documents of their own, such as the Priests & Powers, psionics, or martial arts rules. Sorry, the tables in the RTF format are a little goobered up. If you have the capability to read WordPerfect8 files, I recommend the WPD format.
Houserules for adapting the AD&D (TM) Psionics system for any background. This document shows how to make the Skills & Power psionics system actually work!
Martial Arts in Trinalia (wpd format) (html) - Along with a return to the old land of heroes and villains, we get back to an area of study that is also a tradition in my campaign: martial arts. My new system lets you use detailed styles and maneuvers in the Oriental Adventures tradition under the rules of the Combat & Tactics.
Priests and Powers of Trinalia - A comprehensive document detailing the major faiths of the Land of Trinalia. Even if I do say so myself, this is among the best documents on the web on the priest class, combining the best aspects of Faiths & Avatars and Skills & Powers priest creation methods, yet is more balanced than either. Even if you don't use my setting, you may find the preist write-ups highly adaptable to any Player's Option based game. Most of the Celtic deities in the Legends and Lore are included, plus many new and interesting deities.
The Blood Lich - Known to some sages as the Sangrolu, known to canny adventurers as death incarnate! Now available is more digestable HTML format!
