What is your policy on cosplay, fanfiction or fanart?
I welcome it. I feel that a large amount of fan-creations represents a healthy popularity for the series. You can write fan-fiction, do cosplay, do fan art...or pay someone to do fan art for you. As long as you do not attempt to sell the actual stories or images as your own, it is fine.
If you have an idea for a supplement to the game or a story you'd like to set in the universe, please contact me. I will try to respond as quickly as possible. I hope the setting eventually becomes a shared universe and would welcome someone else to write a story in my world.
