The Cool Factor
Twenty years ago, a new roleplaying game brought d20 systems to the modern age. While it allowed playing in all sorts of genres, an urban fantasy setting imported monsters and magic from the world’s most popular fantasy roleplaying game into our modern world. Now Everyday Heroes takes that campaign and update it to the latest rules set. Machine guns mix it up with fireballs, and sword-wielding barbarians unravel the mysteries of ATMs and cell phones.
