The '''''[http://www.ruleofcool.com/ Legend Game System]''''' first started on [[The Order of the Stick]] forum's Test of Spite arena as a series of house-rules to improve the flaws of ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]] 3.5 Edition''. It soon became evident to the arena masters that the amount of house-rules that resulted - nearly 80 pages worth of material - was sufficient to reach a critical density and spawn an entire book. Development on a new game system incorporating their house-rules began shortly afterwards, which eventually culminated in a role-playing game that, while still based on the d20 system, was substantially different from ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]''.
 
It aims to provide a sleek chassis for a wide variety of gaming styles and fantasy archetypes with an emphasis on quick, rules light play. There is no default setting in the book, though two settings (Hallow and Chion) are currently in the works. There has also been an adventure released called ''Osaka Street Stories'', set in [[Urban Fantasy|Japan in the early 1990's]], and another called ''Comfortably Grim'' is being written.

* [[After the End]]: The current setting, Hallow, is built from the remnants of an entire solar system. It was likely destroyed by some massive catastrophe, and rebuilt by divine powers.
* [[Annoying Arrows]]: Averted. Arrows are exactly as harmful as sword wounds.
