So we have room in the HARP ecosystem for a magic-using assassin profession, which used to be called Shadowblade but we ought properly to call a Nightblade. Should I bring this into Something Wicked (where it could be argued that it fits by virtue of a potential evil dimension) or should we hold it until HARP Subterfuge (where it has an obvious fit)?
Anyone willing to write HARP Subterfuge?
Best wishes,
Nicholas

If you put it in "Something Wicked" it would help justify keeping the name. If you choose not to put it in then it may not be seen for a long time since it looks like you need a writer for Harp Subterfuge. Depends on how important it is that it see the light of day (or the dark of night) in the near future.
Also if you don't put it in would something else go in its place?

We are no longer bound by page count targets of perfectly divisible by 16 pages, so I don't have to find a replacement for the Nightblade if it waits on HARP Subterfuge.
Best wishes,

I would put it in Something Wicked and then expand upon it in HARP Subterfuge. Ideas and expansions for the Nightblade will come in time and make HARP Subterfuge that much more appealing.

I like that.

+1 Sounds like a perfect idea!

Possibly build the Nightblade and if no one has volunteered to write HARP Subterfuge by the time I have completed the revision of the entire document, then the Nightblade goes in the new Wicked?
Best wishes,

I prefer the name Shadowblade, and I admit it can get confusing: a permanent magic weapon called a Shadowblade, a Shadowblade profession, and a temporary magic weapon thanks to the Shadowblade spell.
-
I would say to go ahead and put the Shadowblade/Nightblade into Something Wicked. To me, it seems to fit.

I'm curious. the last post on this was in 2016. Did this book come out under a different name? Is it still in production? If so any idea when it might be ready for purchase?

Hi dranthor,
It's still in production. It is currently with me to sort out the imagery. I'm not sure how long it will take from then, but it is in the pipeline.
Hope that helps
