History

R. Hyrum Savage started the California RPG publisher OtherWorld Creations with Dave Webb, as one of many RPG publishers that got into business thanks to the d20 boom.[1]:418 The company kicked off publication with Diomin, and the d20 licensing convinced Savage and his friends Chad Cunningham and Chris Miller to convert the setting to d20 and release it.[1]:418 In 2004 Savage went to work for Upper Deck Entertainment, after OtherWorld Creations's production came to a halt when both their distributor Wizard's Attic and the d20 market collapsed.[1]:418 Savage resurrected OtherWorld in 2006 by taking advantage of another OGL-like licensing opportunity.[1]:418 In 2007, Savage formed a subsidiary of OtherWorld Creations with Stan Brown called Super Genius Games.[1]:418 After OtherWorld Creations began updating their d20 books to the Pathfinder rules system in 2009, they brought on Owen K.C. Stephens as a Pathfinder line manager.[1]:418
