In Response To: Kabuki on AOL (Karma)

Hi Karma,

Thanks for the kind words about my work, and for the interest in my characters.

Everything you said sounds fine to me. Thanks for introducing people to my work. I'm happy to give you my blessing to play a private non-commercial game as a Kabuki character, providing that this does not give any of my character rights to you or AOL or any other company. I reserve all the rights the characters for role playing games and any other kind of rights. This does not constitute any kind of legal agreement or transfer of rights. All exclusive rights associated with the Kabuki characters and story remain with me.

But I'm sure you know all that.

Warmest regards,

DM

: Hi, this is sort of a message for D. Mack, since I don't
: know any other way to get in touch with him to ask
: this. I role play on AOL and am part of a group of
: people that interact with creations of their own, from
: literature, as people, creatures, etc, online in an
: imaginary setting. Anyway, some play the parts of
: characters from books and comics, role play games,
: etc. I have loved Kabuki ever since I saw it and would
: like permission to play the character online, in the
: spirit the character was created in to begin with, of
: course. No profit is involved and nothing done except
: to explore different possibilities with the
: character's growth as it only pertains to this role
: play environment. The points I can say will help are
: as follows: 1] You'll make a fan very happy, namely
: me. :)
: 2] While no profit is involved, advertising is. AOL Role
: Players have links to the sites most liked when they
: write up a screen name's character profile for others
: to read. The profiles consist of description of the
: character, quotes, something to breathe life into the
: character being portrayed. Also, hyperlinks are many
: times included that could generate a great number of
: hits and interest in the Kabuki comic.
: 3] More fans, more buyers, more everything. Exposure. I
: have several characters in play and usually, when I
: make a site for them, hits can be seen of up to
: several hundred within a first day.

: When played well, which I am told I can do, word gets out
: to other players who seek quality interaction with
: characters of their own and this leads to more hits,
: more interest and many times, more characters to bring
: alive. Any and all stories this free form role play
: might create can also be yours, if you like, I simply
: wish the chance to play the character with the
: creator's permission.

: Anyway, if this sounds like something you might allow, I
: would appreciate a written blurb giving permission. If
: not, no worries, it wont diminish my fan status at all
: and I will understand completely. But I thought I
: would give it a shot since I love the characters and
: concept and the potential for so many futures that
: could be.

: Thanks for the time!
