Welcome to the Pathways Role-Playing Game v1.0!

I wrote this game out of frustration with other games on the market. Many of 
them are quite good but none of them were exactly what I wanted in a system. So 
I wrote my own. After all the work of designing a system from the ground up I 
decided to share it with others who might be in the market for a new role-
playing system. So here it is!

I am a big supporter of the online community and decided to use that medium to 
distribute Pathways. As such there are no hard copies of the system available 
from the publisher (i.e. me). It is only being distributed electronically. As of 
now it is in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. There are viewers available for nearly 
every computer platform.

Pathways is in a state of constant change. To reflect this Pathways will use a 
"version number" approach much like software. Any blank space or pages you see 
are there for formatting purposes and will be edited at a later date. Unfinished 
sections are being worked on now or in the future. 

I welcome all comments and criticism about the game. Please see the contact 
section below for ways to contact me. 

By opening the Pathways PDF file you agree to be bound by the following license.

Licensing:
Individuals are allowed to download and evaluate the Pathways Role-Playing Game 
for personal use at no charge. If you like the game and wish to support future 
development then the cost of a License is US$10 (Texas residents add 8.25% sales 
tax). There will be no hard copy sent to the licensee but I will e-mail you a 
registration number. The license will cover all updates through the current 
version number (i.e. through v1.9.9). This license also allows the person to use 
the game system in tournaments, conventions, and other professionally organized 
purposes (and you get some great positive karma!) Without the license you are 
only allowed to use the game for non-commercial purposes such as games organized 
informally that do not charge any fee to participate. This license is for a 
single person, not a specific copy of the rules. Each licensed user may make 
multiple hardcopies for use in a single game so long they retain possession of 
all those copies. Please send an email for the current shipping address for 
license payments. At this time I can only accept cashiers or personal checks 
drawn for American dollars on American Banks. Sorry :(
