From Chris Perkins' website: My take on what 3rd edition should have been! It borrows heavily from C&C, D&D 3.X, and Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (both 1st & 2nd Edition). I do not claim to be the original author of all of this document's content. Some passages, mainly "fluff text" including the race & class descriptions, are excerpts coming from various D&D books of all editions and/or the previous source material. Their use is not meant to challenge the copyrights or trademarks of the rightful authors or owners.
