Morbidgames is a publisher of role-playing games and sci-fi fiction under the Open Game License using the d20 system, the majority of which take place in a medieval world with fantasy and steampunk elements. ==History== They originally started in 2002 creating modules for Bioware's popular game ''Neverwinter Nights''. While the modules were based in a world referred to as ''Ave'Molech'', their modules are completely unrelated to their current game world. Note the apostrophe, which was removed from their product branding in 2007 along with their website redesign.〔() Role Players Chronicle News〕 In 2006 the company began producing PDF short stories, which they called Journals. These Journals took place in the world of ''Ave Molech'' and are flash fiction narratives taking place in specific locations that typically end with the main character’s demise. In 2007, after a series of mixed reviews, the company reworked their product line as well as hired popular artists such as Gerald Brom and released a second edition of their ''Ave Molech'' campaign setting, also in PDF. Eventually the company’s popularity grew and in 2007 was a runner up in the RPG-Awards Supplements of the Year.〔() RPG-Awards 2007 Supplement of the Year Runner Up〕 Then in 2008 Morbidgames released their fantasy campaign setting in paperback version, though their Journals series and individual writings still only available as PDFs. It was also during this time that the PDF's and books became available on a number of popular web retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, the OBS (One Book Shelf) network, Paizo and Your Games Now.〔() July, 2009 PR.com Press Release〕 Morbidgames has been a consistent advocate for aspiring writers, editors and artists in their local community found through Craigslist.〔() Craigslist VFlyer Listing〕 With its founding members based in California & Nevada, the majority of the company’s part-time employees are typically local college students majoring in related subjects. The students are given the chance to work on projects and receive full credit within titles and product lines Morbidgames produces.〔() Official "About" page for Morbidgames and Ave Molech〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morbidgames」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
