Editing Blackmoor (section)

==The Zeitgeist Era==
While teaching at Full Sail University, Arneson partnered with fellow college lecturer Dustin Clingman and together they acquired the license to publish Blackmoor material from Wizards of the Coast. In 2004 they formed Zeitgeist Games and started publishing MMRPG adventures and a bunch of Blackmoor books for 3.5e and one for 4e. 

Shortly before Arneson passed away, the license expired and, as with other such arrangements in the 4e era, WotC declined to renew. New Blackmoor content ceased.  Proposed supplements like "Age of the Wolf" became nothing more than myth and vaporware.  The legal status of the setting is said to be a jumbled mess, furthering the setting's fate in limbo.  It is likely that ownership has reverted back to Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast, but few people seem to be talking.  For the time being, any and all support has been left up to the fans.  This has lead to all sorts of fan creations, like filling in the timeline blanks, creating new enemies for Blackmoor and even bringing it back to Mystara through several improbable incarnations (including one where it's evil for some reason).  Many of these can be found on the [[Vaults of Pandius]].
