- Just a note.
If you are going to lift from RPG resources on the web; lean toward Supernatural Pulp, rather than High Fantasy.
Case in point this totally neat Terra Incognita site.

It seems so obvious now, The Nights are more Supernatural Pulp than High Fantasy in tone and temperament; real people in a supernatural world, not supernatural people in the real world.
I was brought up on D&D and I thought that would be the way to build an Arabian game. Realization came to me while I was deconstructing the D&D Illusionist class to see what useful bits would fit into the Arabian milieu. While gutting the spell list I remembered that Jeff's Cliffhangers adventure was much easier fit; in cooking it's always better to add than subtract.
