But thats exactly when a lot of fun can happen. :)
Is like to have a vampire at UA, not canon, but surprising, and ultimately,
fun. Specially to ppl that knows the setting.

I think the canon matter, A LOT. :)
Based on it is that ppl that would produce fan material (like the stuff in
UA archive) would or not be shunned. Sure, they can make "alternate universe
schools", but then, why not make them for others RPGs instead of UA? Sure,
in the game table, WE RULE ABOVE ALL (hehehe), but thats another story. :)

Haaa....btw, i have uploaded the thumbnails of my works, previous, non
showed on the list (ot stuff) and of the UA2. Since is just the thumbnails
(im still deciding on the format, and if i will put coments and the site
logo in the images), im not screaming to the four corners, just leaving in
this message a warning about it. :)

Cya, Mario!
