This license lets anyone create stuff for ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged Edition and publish it however they like—free or for sale. Adventures, campaigns, hacks, modules, VTTs—it’s all fair game. No license fees, no revenue share, no hassle. Just follow these few simple rules:
1. You can publish role-playing game compatible with same line ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged (and other books from the gine like Main Gauche, Dark Astral, and ZWEIHÄNDER Revised Core Rulebook) for free or commercially—without needing our permission.
2. You can reference and use rules, creatures, characters, locations, and terms from the entire game line. You can't reprint or include the original rules themselves.
3. You may not use our official artwork, trade dress, or logos—except for the Powered By ZWEIHANDER logo, which you must place on the cover art. Download The Logo here.
4. Your product must require the ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged Core Rulebook to play. You can add new rules, settings, campaigns, monsters, classes, etc. Just don’t publish a full standalone game that replaces the core book.
1. Don’t make it look like we officially sponsor, endorse, or publish your work unless we’ve agreed to it in writing.
2. You must include a disclaimer somewhere visible (like your credits page or website) that says:
[Product name] is an independent production by [Author or Publisher]. It is published under the ZWEIHÄNDER Third Party License. ZWEIHÄNDER RPG is © Daniel D. Fox.
1. You keep full rights to your own work. We keep full rights to ours.
2. This license is strictly for tabletop role-playing game content. Print, PDF, and VTTs for role-playing game content are fine. You can’t use this license to make board games, clothes, toys, video games, and the like. No NFTs or AI may be trained on our content.
3. You are responsible for your product. We aren't liable for what you publish.
4. This license is irrevocable as long as you follow the rules. If you break them, the license ends.
Want to make something horrific and cool for ZWEIHÄNDER Reforged? Do it. Want to sell it? Go ahead. Just don’t pretend it’s official, and don’t use our art or rules text.
Happy gaming,
Daniel D. Fox
P.S. Misery is meant to be shared. Drown your creations in treachery, corruption, and the supernatural, but make certain every soul feels the weight. No one is spared. Leave your prejudices at the door, and don't poison your game with -isms.
