What is it about?
The Modern System Reference Document belongs to Wizards of the Coast’s historical d20 Modern line. It takes the d20 rules framework into a different adventure context. The directory preserves it as a historical resource, separate from later modern games and permissions covering complete commercial settings.

At the table
