CHAMPIONS (tm) is a Role Playing Game (RPG) from Hero Games based on comic books. Unlike Dungeons and Dragons where a character is "rolled up", heroic and villainous characters are created from points. The points are a combination of free points, character disadvantages, and experience points given by the Game Master (GM) over the course of a characters playing lifetime. If you have a favorite comic book character, chances are he/she/it can be created using CHAMPIONS (tm) guidelines.
