SILVER AGE SENTINELS (D20)
Talking Up Our Products With the weekly influx of new roleplaying titles, it’s almost impossible to keep track of every product in every RPG line in the adventure games industry. To help you organize our titles and to aid customers in finding information about their favorite products, we’ve designed a set of point-of-purchase dividers. These hard-plastic cards are much like the category dividers often used in music stores, but they’re specially designed as a marketing tool for hobby stores. Each card features the name of one of our RPG lines printed prominently at the top, and goes on to give basic information on the mechanics and setting of the game, special features that distinguish it from other RPGs, and the most popular and useful supplements available. The dividers promote the sale of backlist items as well as new products, since they help customers identify the titles they need most and remind buyers to keep them in stock. Our dividers can be placed in many ways. These are just a few of the ideas we’ve come up with: •A divider can be placed inside the front cover or behind the newest release in a line if the book is displayed full-face on a tilted backboard or book prop. Since the cards 1 are 11 /2 inches tall, the line’s title will be visible within or in back of the book. When a customer picks the RPG up to page through it, the informational text is uncovered. The card also works as a restocking reminder when the book sells. -

It is peering at you with one large, green eye. What do you do? Ranger: I’m going to drink this invisibility potion and cross this bridge to get a closer look. I’m also going to nock an arrow and hold my attack in case it notices me. Cleric: One large green eye. Where have I seen this before? Wait, I think that’s a Nothic. Bard Can I try talking to it? GM: Sure, make a persuasion check. Bard: I rolled a 7, plus my modifier is a 3, so a 10. What does that do? GM: The Nothic notices you and you can feel its gaze penetrating your soul. -
Menace Manual
MONSTERS THAT TIME FORGOT CONVERTING MONSTERS When I was asked to help write the Menace Manual for the d20 MODERN Roleplaying Game, I was overjoyed to see so many monsters on the list from the Dark•Matter Campaign Setting for the ALTERNITY Roleplaying Game. After all, I’d had a great time writing Xenoforms: Aliens, Demons, & Aberrations with Rich Redman, and I was really looking forward to converting some of those creatures to the d20 MODERN rules. Then reality sank in: Converting monsters from ALTERNITY to the d20 MODERN rules wouldn’t be the same as converting monsters from DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, with its built-in d20 System compatibility. Heck, it was starting to look like work. So I put together a system for conversion, which I’ll share with you now. We’ll see how it works with the conversion of a pretty basic Dark•Matter creature, El Chupacabras (from Xenoforms). The Original El Chupacabras is a small creature with 2 Hit Dice that can climb, attacks with claws and bite, and has psion- ics and a blood drain attack. It gains its sustenance by sucking the blood from warm-blooded animals. So let’s see how the conversion process works. Size and Type By JD Wiker El Chupacabras fits nicely into the Small category for size. It resembles an animal in many ways, but its psionic powers make it a good candidate for magical beast. Ability Scores The first thing I needed to change Dark•Matter mon- Converting Monsters for the d20 MODERN Roleplaying Game sters into d20 MODERN creatures was a method of con- verting ability scores from ALTERNITY to the d20 d20MODERN System. -
