ORC Draft 1.0 Deep Dive - Dissecting The First Draft of Paizo's Open RPG Creative License
17As promised, I'm back doing a deep dive into the first draft of Paizo's Open RPG Creative License, otherwise known as the ORC. It's a fairly straightforward legal document meant to replace Wizard of the Coast's controversial OGL, but with some legal speak that can be confusing, so I'm here to dissect that with everyone as we read through the ORC 1.0.
More info on the first draft of the Open RPG Creative (ORC) license here: https://paizo.com/community/blog/v5748dyo6si9y?First-Draft-of-the-ORC-License-Ready-for
As per Paizo's website, the ORC is: "the Open RPG Creative (ORC) license, a system-agnostic, perpetual, irrevocable open gaming license that provides a legal “safe harbor” for sharing rules mechanics and encourages collaboration and innovation in the tabletop gaming space."
The ORC spun out of the attempt by Wizards of the Coast to restrict the OGL that had been in use for 20+ years by tabletop creators and published around the world, and is a collaboration of more than 1,500 tabletop publishers and content creators.
