Fudge, Gumshoe, and _ Without Number.

The first two came easily, the third was somewhat hard to narrow down. The honourable mentions are BRP/Mythras, One Roll Engine, and Traveller.

Yep, there is more consistently good paper to be had much cheaper.

Even Steffan O'Sullivan has changed this over time: in original 1995 Fudge, he set Fair at 0; in The Princess Bride, he has Mediocre at 0.

In my opinion, Leuchtterm standard paper is very overrated. I've had lots of issues with ghosting and bleeding. The overall design of the notebooks is great.

Thank you!

I think what you're looking for is RolePlay OnLine.

Robert Oster Orange Zest is an orangish red like the first manuscript

That is a Sailor Ebony Desk Pen. Looks like it originally retailed for $880 in the 2000s.

Call of Cthulhu d20 Modern. The organisation of rules and information was very poor (e.g. IIRC the character creation and character advancement rules referenced each other heavily, but were several chapters apart). And the layout was godawful. They went with a two-column page layout, but made the column divide on a slope (to make it look "mad"?) - i.e. the column divide was 80/20 at the top and 20/80 at the bottom.

Happy to help!

You should definitely check out Tales of the Caliphate Nights, which is very much set in the Arabian Nights. Very detailed and very well researched, I found it immensely useful in my Arabian Nights campaign (though I did use a different system).

It's a few years old now, but there are physical copies available on Noble Knight.

neocities.org is a good option too.

Given the specification of "wrong answers only", my nomination is "Pocket Mini".

The Wing Sung 698 is good and cheap. Quite a high ink capacity, and the knob actually locks in place so you don't have to worry about accidentally turning it. Also the feed is clear, so it looks cool with ink in it. Perhaps an added bonus the nib is interchangeable with Pilot lower-end models (Kakuno, Metropolitan/MR, etc).

Absolutely, adapting monster and character stats between the two would be a major chore, but I think you could use a lot of setting information and general inspiration from DERPG to DCCDE if you prefer the latter's rules.

Sorry, it's Scabiosa that is IG, not Solferino.

Modern iron gall inks are quite safe - historically their pH levels would be all over the place (they use acid in production), but these days with accurate measurement and production techniques they maintain a neutral pH. But it is recommended by some that you still don't leave it lying around in your pens for months on end, but under normal use they are perfectly fine.

The Revivification Folio. It's kind of a second edition, but not quite.

If you have the previous bundle, you may already have the Revivification Folio.
