Project Update: UPDATE: HEROIC HANDBOOK TO VILLAINOUS VOL 1
Based on your feedback the HEROIC HANDBOOK name is now being reserved for our companion rules that we plan for later in the lifecycle of HEROIC RPG.
This means we needed a new name of what was the HH stretch goal, and as such we are going to do it right;
Villainous: Special Edition will now be a full 12 villains, with alternate concepts on how to make them heroes if you want, for use in your campaign.
This also means the Backer ICON characters will become a separate compilation, as it's own book and POD will be provided to all Print backers!
So what does this mean in the TLDR world? You now get an additional book, as well as a dedicated villain book to kick off our villain roster books moving forward!
So you win on all fronts :)

Project Update: HEROIC PATREON
Just a reminder that for just $5 a month you can join the OFFICIAL HEROIC PATREON where I post NPCs, Zenith Comics Universe lore, and even discuss optional/expanded rules!
This week alone we've hit all those topics, including 9 NPCs for use in your HEROIC CAMPAIGNS!
Your patronage helps me to create more and more material, outside of the core rules here and will be the test bed for ideas that will come in the eventual HEROIC HANDBOOK companion.
Have a voice in the future of HEROIC and get awesome lore and NPCs too boot!
I just went to upgrade to the Premium Color version. But instead of it being $100cdn total, it is adding an extra $100cdn on top of the $70cdn... There's no way that can be right right can it? That would be about $125 US before even paying for shipping. That would be an absolutely insane price for a 200ish page book and more than double any premium color book I've ever ordered off of here (and about triple what you can order most other 200 page premiums right now for).

Project Update: UPDATE: 30 To Go!
Good morning!
This is it folks! We are in the Final 30 Days of this campaign!
I am forever humbled by how many people have given their support of this project, blasting past even my greatest hopes! Ya'll are truly HEROIC!
Now, if this ended today, I would consider it a MASSIVE success, well and far beyond the humble beginnings. Success is exactly the word to use.
Now we still have some awesome Stretch Goals to achieve, so if you are thinking of adding that extra, now would be the time to do so. Or maybe you have a friend who might be interested, why not point them this way?
The team is solid and can't wait for funding to start generating art, models, and of course the final form of the game itself!
It's going to be one helluva month, buckle up and let's blast through some more stretch goals to get even MORE HEROIC action in your hands!
Wanna take a ride?

Hey there!
Technically I am still on vacation from updating much until Monday, but I had to shout this one out!
So here we are, original art for the Whimsey Cards has been unlocked! Thank you so much for that, I am floored we've come this far. Take a bow everyone.

Project Update: UPDATE: WHIMSEY CARDS LOCKED AGAIN
Sad to say when I woke up this morning, without losing any backers overnight we somehow dropped a few hundred dollars and are now under the amount needed to unlock the Whimsey Cards.
As we have more backers than we did 3 days ago, I am at a bit of a loss.
So we get back to the grind of spreading the good word about this game and try to claw back that lost ground!
So spread the link far and wide please, it's only with your help we can do it.

Project Update: UPDATE: Roll20 & Fixed Colour Charts!
So we are working on an Roll20 API and Collection of macros for you all, Foundry is a whole other question, and we are in search of finding someone who can make an interactive Character Sheet on Roll20 for us, so stay tuned.
Now that said, the gentlemen working on the Roll20 API discovered some errors on the Colour Charts, so here they are updated;
- v3.1 Universal Table
- v3.1 Unipage
- v3.1 Core Rules (Just in case you missed it)
Lastly, here's a link to 40 original songs from the year 198X, representing how superhero culture is influencing the popular culture of the Zenith Universe. (Please note these were made using AI, and are not-for-profit).Be sure to tell us which ones were your favourites (mine are tied between Spandex & Sweat, Call of the Wild, and Echoes of Midnight... though I kinda love them all).
That's all for today! BE HEROIC everyone!

Project Update: v3.1 Update!
UPDATE: Link Fixed!
Here it is!
v3.1
This is OFFICIALLY the last update before we release the actual published version.
Any typos, confusions, etc... bring them to our attention for sure, but don't expect the document to be updated again moving forward.
Why?
We have a ton of work to do to get the game out.
Also, we have crossed the 300 backer mark! We will wait for Friday to make sure we stay above that level, and if we do, then we will draw a winner for the next giveaway. Stay tunned!
So there you go, you now have v3.1, let's hear the feedback if you please, and as always...
