The leadship at White Wolf Publishing saw the massive potential for the d20 System in the roleplaying industry, so they formed Sword & Sorcery Studio — a new department dedicated to production of d20 products. White Wolf wanted an expert in the legal and mechanical issues involved with the d20 trademark license, so they asked Necromancer Games to help form the "Sword & Sorcery" imprint, to publish both the books of Sword & Sorcery Studio and those of Necromancer Games. This partnership was announced on September 13, 2000.[1]: 8
When this partnership was announced, White Wolf also stated that Sword & Sorcery Studio was involved as a third partner was involved, although it was actually just the White Wolf d20 content division, but did give its name to the Sword & Sorcery d20 imprint. White Wolf produced the first book for Sword & Sorcery, the Creature Collection (2000) monster book which was assembled by Clark Peterson and Bill Webb of Necromancer Games, and written by White Wolf staffers.[2]: 33
