This is a 5th Edition Dark Champions game set in the Hudson City area.  That’s the main setting that Hero Games uses for Dark Champions.

Our world is a bit different, in that no super beings exist, nor is there magic.  There is no super-science or mutants per se, although there are a few higher-end gadgets running around.  Mostly, it’s a game where highly-motivated and/or highly trained humans wage a vigilante war against villains, gangs, and injustice everywhere.

The player characters are built on 250 points, 150 points plus another 100 in disadvantages.  There are two main characters, my young teen son who plays Teen Windwolf and my grade school son who plays Star Hammer.  The game is pretty much rated ‘G’ at this point, so it is very unlike all the other Dark Champions games I used to run.

Most vigilantes have a car, truck, van, or motorcycle, plus a secret lair or base of some kind.  It could be anything, a rented room to an HQ under a mansion.

Teen Windwolf runs a dojo in the northern part of Mint Ridge, which is west of LeMastre Park.  Star Hammer owns a Game & Hobby store.  Both vigilante heroes have one car each, but they both want to expand their garage as time goes on.
