R. Hyrum Savage
R. Hyrum Savage is an RPG designer and brand manager whose design credits include ''Diomin'' and '' Forbidden Kingdoms''. Career Hyrum has worked for Disney Interactive, FreePC, and eMachines. Savage started the California-based OtherWorld Creations (OWC) with Dave Webb, as one of the many publishers that got started in role-playing games to publish material for the D20 System. The company began publication with ''Diomin'' (2000), which had originally been designed for '' GURPS'' but the availability of d20 licensing persuaded Savage and friends Chad Cunningham and Chris Miller to convert the setting to d20 instead. Savage was also one of the creators behind '' Forbidden Kingdoms''. In 2004 Savage went to work for Upper Deck Entertainment, when production for OtherWorld Creations stopped because both their distributor Wizard's Attic and the d20 market collapsed.

Wizard's Attic
Wizard's Attic was an American role-playing game wholesaler and fulfillment house servicing small publishers. It was collapsed in 2004. History Wizard's Attic was formed in order to act as a fulfillment house for Chaosium. Aldo Ghiozzi's Wingnut Games was one of Wizard's Attic's consolidation clients, and in 2002, Wizard's Attic's business was starting to falter and clients like Ghiozzi were starting to see their payments dry up. Just as Wizard's Attic was trying to get out of the consolidation business, Ghiozzi decided to move his small company Impressions Advertising & Marketing into the field. Impressions used Wizard's Attic as its original base of consolidation operations, so Eric Rowe set aside a corner of the Wizard's Attic warehouse for Ghiozzi and his first three clients – Citizen Games, Troll Lord Games and Wingnut Games – and shipped their products as required. By the end of 2002, when Wizard's Attic was shutting down all of its business except for fulfilment, Eric ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The first edition extends and modifies the System Reference Document (SRD) based on the revised 3rd edition ''Dungeons & Dragons'' (''D&D'') published by Wizards of the Coast under the Open Game License (OGL) and is intended to be backward-compatible with that edition. A new version of the game, ''Pathfinder 2nd Edition'', was released in August 2019. It continues to use the OGL and SRD, but significant revisions to the core rules make the new edition incompatible with content from either Pathfinder 1st Edition or any edition of D&D. ''Pathfinder'' is supported by the official ''Pathfinder'' periodicals and various third-party content created to be compatible with the game. Background Beginning in 2002, Paizo took over publishing '' Dragon'' and ''Dungeon'' magazines, which were about the ''Dungeons & Dragons'' (''D&D'') role-playing game, under cont ...
