Challenger Games: Homepage

Current Focus:

The money system is being changed. For now, divide all current money acquired by 100. Provision shops should be divided by price just the same.

Game Masters: This is a huge task, as the prices and services for many areas need to be overhauled. The current fee for staying one night at a common inn is 1-2 bronze pieces. A meal at a common inn should cost from 3 to 5 copper pieces.

Note to Game Masters: You might need to divide all your players current money by 100 (your decision). They will not be losing their riches, as everything in the game costs much less (I'm fixing it as I work the edits). I would not do this with their copper and bronze pieces (just reduce their silver and higher forms of money players have).

SPECIFIC SITE UPDATES: Updates

This project is massive, so I'm not sure if I'll have enough time in mortality to finish this world. I'll give it my best, ha! At times, as I add to this world, I can't help but smile. At times I can't help but laugh, it gets so absurd! I love it! I think I'll make a song about crafting this world!

Thank you all so much for the emails (compliments and critiques). I love the critiques, so please feel free to let me know if you find something messed up. I get lost in all these pages. This site now have about 14,000 pages! Love it!

Soon, I'll be working on getting this site paid up for a LONG time. I want it to endure for as long as possible. I'm thrilled to offer you this world with NO expectations on my part. I may be launching a merchant account in the future, but I'm not interested in having you sign up for anything, or force you all to be a member just to access this game. All are welcome. I don't want your information unless we get to be email pen pals. I have a few now. Well met fantasy brothers and sisters! I'm flattered by your communications.

If you wish to donate to the cause, great. If you can't, just relax and enjoy this world . . . oh, and try not to get eaten! I just lost my mighty Dwarf in a one-on-one fight with a bandit! I fell to an annihilation-strike! 000 right in the neck. How humiliating to fall to a mere bandit! Hahahaha!!

You are a fantastic group of gamers! It's my great privilege to open this world up to you. Happy Adventuring!!

Please have patience with this HUGE project. It is my life's work, and will eventually, God willing, be finished and expanded before I move on through that great portal.

Use the PDF for unfinished sections.

I found a beauty, maiden true, upon a mountain high,

Her life was ebbing, cold winds blew, I knew that she would die.

Taking her from frigid grave, I tended her to health,

I yearned this maiden, her to save, a treasure beyond wealth.

In wonder I was pierced with joy, she stayed to calm my fear,

Our conversations I enjoyed, her voice I longed to hear.

In bitter darkness we were hurled, I sought to gain her hand,

In love she entered my dark world, together we would stand.

Free she gave her life for me, I find I’m not alone,

Her loyalty has made me free, in her I find I’m home.

I see her struggles day by day, I see within this hour,
Though life be as the darkened gray, I see her inner power.

Her living soul, self resigned, I fail to find true words,

She seeks the status, Knight Divine, within my heart is stirred.

And now we seek a dire Witch, Raven’s future guide,

Desperate seeking to enrich, in who she can confide.

Willing, I pledge my life to you, forever take your hand,

I am Loyal, faithful, true, together we will stand.

If ever death besets my soul, in spirit I will guide,

Beyond death, protector’s role, I am at your side.

Continue, searching, who you are, discover your true self,

I will stand, not from afar, Raven, my true wealth.

We forge our life without measure, at each others side,

Raven is my greatest treasure, in you my fears subside.

As we take each others hands, Together we will walk,

Exploring into distant lands, Mysteries to unlock.

Forever loyal, constant, true, your shield my greatest pride,

Though utter darkness should ensue, my faithful future bride.

I could never think to leave you, I’m yours and you are mine,

Together hail among the true, until the end of time.

Basic Rules Book: Provisions. Okay, the A-Provisions are pretty much set to the easiest format for navigation I can think of. Very easy on the navigation (if you see a mess up link, please let me know). I just need to create a bit more art for the opening page. Then on to the B-Section. The reason I took so long with the A-Section was due to having to create sub-folders to put each item into. This makes for quick loading time. It's pretty fast now. No more listing a huge selection on one page. Besides, it is very simple to now add in items that come to mind. Very very simple. On to the B-Section. Thank you all for the supportive emails. Great army of fantasy purists out there. Very encouraging.

Creatures Book: Fixed the level for the Gladiator Skeleton.

Treasure Book: Enchanted Weapons:

Kubatons finished.

Lances finsihed.

Bone Mace finished with art. Game Masters: This is a rather in-depth item, and should be pre-made to save time during role-play.

Author's note:

I'm going to create some unique maces. You can still choose to use the old list on the PDF, but those will not appear in the list of Enchanted Maces on the site at this point. I will transfer them over, but I have some ideas I've always wanted to implement into maces (as well as morning stars). These Maces and Morning Stars will be quite the treat for you all. Once I finsihed things up in the Enchanted Weapons section of the Treasure Book, the list of Maces and Morning Stars will be quite extensive.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date ------ : 11/13/24

Basic Rules Book: A-Provisions (and price adjustments) is underway. Getting the format finalized for the A-Provisions (this will become the format for B through Z).

Art:

1. Placed some art into the Creatures, Basic Rules, as well as other secitons of the game which need illustrations. I'm really focusing, or trying to focus on, getting the Volcanic Region finsihed, as well as placing illustration in the Basic Rules Book. The Basic Rules Book is a massive undertaking for this art (quite time consuming). Please be patient as I do this. This project is like facing a grand rocky mountain range I must climb. It's not only daunting, but incredibly fun to work through.

2. Opening page has been updated. Look down each side of the page. On the left are art pieces you can enlarge. Note: I'll put more of these into the Printables section of the site, so you can print out dungeons, mazes, civilization specific settings, Etc. Click on the art piece to enlarge, then print it out as you need it (for non-commercial purposes only).

I better finish the Volcanic Region first, or I'm in big trouble with some gamers. I'm working on it now. Just got a bit sidetracked with some printables. Pyran Wolves are about to appear. They just need art pieces. I'll get them soon (11/2/24/ 1109am).

Basic Rules Book: Added "Book of Ancient Ponderings" in the B Section of "Books, Random Determination of:". Author's Note: Remember, these are just book titles the Game Master can use during game-play. Game Masters can expound on these books to enhance the adventure they are hosting.

Creatures Book: Added Lesser, Common and Greater Pyran Wolves. They are fairly OP, so be careful and don your best.

Fixed a few mistakes in the Swamp Glutton.

Regions Book: Volcanic Region is fininished. I'll be added more content into this region iu time.

Trade-Skills: Fixed the "Bring Page to Top" link. It should work now. Thanks Jason!

Date ------ : 10/13/24

Creatures Book: Greater Phoenix art pieces added.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date ------ : 10/5/24

Art:

Added art pieces to each and every Common and Special Gem. This undertaking has immersed me within the idea that they must be expanded to not only compliment mining, but to create an endless variety of possibilities and values.

Date ------ : 10/4/24

Art:

Created a bunch of art for the following areas: Gems, Special Gems, Divinationist. I'll put them up over time. The gems charts need to be revamped.

Art:

I'm currently placing art in many areas of the game (especially the creatures) so you all can get a good visual of what's in my head and in my world.

Abilities and Spells - : Added Vesication to the Fate's Power list.

Creatures Book ----- : Finished the Adult, Mature, Ancient and Eldar Electricity Dragons.

Regions Book -------- : Added the Adult, Mature, Ancient and Eldar Electricity Dragons are now in the active roll-charts in all appropriate regions. I'll have to do some test-play to see how it goes. I don't want overwhelm characters. Balance is a key issue at this point. Also: All roll-charts with dragons are updated. If you encounter a bad link, or dead link, please let me know. I went through it pretty heavy, so the hope is that all links and encounters are good.

Last of all, I do realize the enchanted weapons, oracles and relics are not finished. Just use the PDF for now. I'm not being lazy. I just need this game fully playable on the site. Huge project. Sucks me in!!

Happy Adventuring!! :)

Date ------ : 9/17/24

Updates - : Added a generic character sheet for any HUMANOID race (in notepad, notepad zipped, PDF and PDF zipped (the PDF is formatted slightly different, but is the same). This was added so that you can use a file-based version of the HUMANOID character sheet if you need to. I'll probably add in the races for this generic character sheet in the future, but there is no ETA on this. I use file-based character sheets so I can toggle and update them as I play NPCs. I'm hoping this will help you Game Masters do the same.

you to the Basic Rules Book (so you can

return quickly to a creature, a return link

to each has been added on the left. I'll be

doing this for all creatures set with a

creature sheets more easily.

Clarified the "Fears" Ogres have in each

breed of Ogre.

Regions Book: Added the Adolescent Electricity Dragon to

a few regions.

Added Artwork to the Underworld. The

Planes are beginning to highly intrigue me.

Updates - : None. This was the best 4th of July I've had since 2018!

Over the past few years, I've met a few gamers down at the local

gaming/hobby shop who expressed they would like to test-play

Guardians. I texted and invited 5 of them to come to my place.

After they made a character, we launched an all day test-play.

I can't believe they made it to 8th+ level in one day! The two

girls who joined us were the balance to the adventure. Ha! They

forced the guys to stay on track and led the role-play! Love it!

Miladies and milords: I'm highly impressed with your role-play

skills. It was like stepping through a portal into another world for

15 solid hours! We'll do it again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Date ------ : 7/3/24

Updates - : Author's Stories: Raven, "Raven's Tomb" Book 2 (4th edit ongoing now).
