importing monsters, spells, etc. from Open Mythos #92

Hello,

Have you considered importing the entries from Open Mythos?

https://cthulhueternal.com/open-mythos/

These are the public domain elements of the Mythos, statted for Cthulhu Eternal (which is a free OGL clone of CoC/DG).

The stats are mostly compatible with DG, so could be imported easily into the schema.

If it's okay to do and you don't have time, I could do it.

DG is purging all the OGL references it had, so I'm a bit leery of adding anything where I'd have to re-include the OGL license. I do think it is an interesting idea though. Perhaps it could be made as a standalone module that includes everything a a compendium pack when you enable it? I think that would be a little cleaner way to do it.

I agree that a fan-made stand-alone module is more appropriate for something like this. It seems very cool but since it doesn't come directly from DG I think it would be weird for us to include with the system. I'd say, if you want to make an external module within the license/rights of the Cthulu Eternal folks, you should go for it. Will close this issue.

Closing this issue but if you do want to discuss more with us, this would probably be more appropriate as a Discussion. We do appreciate the idea and look forward to any module you end up making :)
