Okay, I hate making comments about threads, but
this one is in need of commentary.
Hunter Kid: Good. Great job. I'd like to see
more; and see where this is going.
Tarot: Well.... [shrugs]
HK commented that it is a series that doesn't
lend itself to fanfiction. Oh contraire.
Admittedly, it isn't easy (which makes it that
much more of an impressive attempt by HK), but
it's a perfect concept of fanwork.
In case some of you didn't know, Lodoss is based
on a series of novels that is based on an RPG
that came out in Japan...doesn't it sound just
like the D&D phenom? The only difference is,
they made a crappy kid's cartoon show for D&D
vice an intelligence anime.
Well, Lodoss would have never come out if some
Japanese role players hadn't played D&D and
liked it enough to create something of their own.
That's right: Lodoss in itself is a far and away
fanwork of D&D, after a fashion. So, its very
existence lends to the fan credo.
HK, keep at it. You just may be the one to
start a Lodoss craze (and get someone to someday
say: "Man, there are too many Lodoss fics
around!" ^_~
