Open Game License

It was created by Wizards of the Coast ( WotC ) to facilitate the sales of additional books for their role -playing game Dungeons & Dragons, especially to its regulatory framework to maintain a presence in areas that do not appear lucrative enough for WotC themselves. Not to be confused is the OGL with the d20 license, the d20 allows the use of the mark on his own works.
