Talk:Guardian (3.5e Creature)
From D&D Wiki
Guardian[edit]
This class is designed to mimic the Big Daddies from the Games BioShock and BioShock 2, for a Campaign module that i am running that takes my players to rapture, the underwater city that these games take place in, i decided to post it on dandwiki so that other dms can use them instead of trying to make them, enjoy and i hope this helps.

- i figured that it could be construed as a copyright if i named it such so Guardian will do haha Envoyof_aGod 09:35, 24 September 2010 (MDT)
- Seeing as how you say in the page that you are ripping off Bioshock, it's not really avoiding copyright violations by just changing the name. As it is, I believe (but I'm not a lawyer so don't quote me on this) that creating a Big Daddy for D&D falls under Fair Use, and as such, is not a copyright violation. If you are worried about possibly infringing copyright, you can always add {{Copyright Disclaimer}} at the bottom of the page. JazzMan 13:52, 26 September 2010 (MDT)
- Fixed. Renamed to Protector, per BioShock lore. Marasmusine (talk) 02:05, 8 July 2013 (MDT)
