  1. I think there are many in the same boat. If you want to post in 4e or 5e, then that's awesome. I'll add a rule that says, "If you post in 4e or 5e, indicate so, and we'll try to get a conversion to 6e ASAP." I feel like the biggest intuitive jump is between 5e and 6e, but if you can build in 1e you can build in 5e. (my opinion) UPDATE: Added the new rule/guideline to the wiki!
  2. This is how I see it: We are building the wiki in 6e. I foresee a lot of 5e conversions--I still use 5e a lot. I see 4e as being big too--I love that book. I could be wrong, but I foresee less 3e and below conversions. (Don't hate me, I played all the versions, and I probably spent the most tabletop time in 3e.) Champions Now, I'd love to see conversions to that. Fuzion...why not? I think this forum might not have a lot of Fuzion players but I absolutely would not block that. But I feel that--for the sake of propagating Champions--we have to keep 6e as the main, even though I personally play 5e more.
  3. The campaign wiki is coming along slowly. But slow and steady wins the race, I'm told. Link: https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Championsrpg_Wiki I feel like--correct me if I'm wrong--people are waiting for things to happen with the wiki before diving in. Fair enough. But....I have to ask...what are you waiting for? Because: We're it. We're the people making the wiki. If you're waiting for something and you know how to do it, my advice/wish/request is....Just Do It. I also completely understand that the forum is a bit slower in the summer. Totally makes sense. I've literally been outdoors 90% of the time, so I haven't been working on the wiki either. I always envisioned it to take a couple of months to get the foundations set and then for things to pick up October-ish. So there's the update! Thank you to everyone who has already contributed, and keep goin'! PS: If you edit the wiki, please use your herogames username. But, by all means, edit the wiki!
  4. At the site I posted the first character. That could be used as a template. Or...if someone could post one here, I'd be happy to use it! Remember we are trying for 6e as the main ruleset, with conversions to other editions.
  5. I haven't done the math but I can post him in the wiki, and then he can be edited there is there are things to fix.
  6. Thanks! And I've been sending people to this link, which is the official Fabrica site online, and has a link to the DC Animated style creator: http://www.fabricadeherois.com.br/
  7. Here is the link to the wiki we are working on:

    https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Championsrpg_Wiki

    Anyone can edit! Not a private club!

  8. Could we include it with a kind of warning label? Maybe Panpiper can write something cautionary to put with the write-up. (Actually, what Panpiper already wrote might be enough if I slap it in the first paragraph of the write-up.) Actually...maybe the "tone-down" idea is the best option. Could someone revise the character and post it here?
  9. Yay! Link: https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Paradox_Timely Thank you, steriaca!
  10. In the thread posted you said Yeah, I think this is cool.
  11. It's going to take me a bit to post this because it's not in "final form" and will require me to read the thread and patch it all together. Which is okay...it's just going to take time. Anyone want to donate their Fabrica de Herois skills to make pics for this entry?
  12. Nice! I can put this into the wiki. Anyone want to take a crack at making an image for these characters?
  13. No worries! Hey, you can post your characters here on this thread and I will put them into the wiki. It's a learning experience. I've edited Wikipedia a bit and the interface at fandom.com is actually similar to the one here at herogames.com/forums So....post some stuff here and I'll move it to the wiki! Let's start with 6e write-ups if we can. PS: The Fabrica de Herois can be downloaded from the official site: http://www.fabricadeherois.com.br/#fabricas We are aiming at using the FH Animated.
  14. *taps mic* Is this....is this thing on? 😄
  15. Who wants to enter the first superhero to be included in the wiki? Do so here: https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Superheroes Or, post the character's pic and stats here on this thread, in 6e, and I'll take it over to the wiki and make the first post!
  16. Jason is okay with it. He's in the loop.
  17. Okay, going with the fandom one. At the time of this posting, only three votes but 2 to 1 in favor of fandom.com The wiki has begun! Go there! https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Championsrpg_Wiki
  18. Okay, it's a couple days early, but we can get started at the new wiki: https://championsrpg.fandom.com/wiki/Championsrpg_Wiki RULES 1. We ask that anyone editing the wiki please sign up at herogames.com/forums and use the same username as you are using at herogames.com (your work will likely be deleted if you don't follow this). People who are already members at herogames.com, please use the same username. Our copyright blurb depends upon the fact that you are using the same username here as there. So there. 2. Check out the threads at herogames.com/forums regarding the wiki before you go too nuts, just so's you get a feel for what we're doing. 3. We're using the DC Animated-style HeroMachine for our default character design style. This is a non-commercial use, so we're fine. 4. The write-ups should be in 6e as the default, but there should be tabs for other conversions, as demonstrated by the Tarrasque entry in the Forgotten Realms wiki (which is hosted at the same site) 5. Have fun. Don't be afraid to get started. I can't imagine anyone deleting anything anyone else has done....just try to build on what already exists. Whoever gets in there earliest gets to set the direction of it, so be the first and go nuts! 6. Post on this thread if you have any questions! ANYONE READING THIS SENTENCE CAN JOIN AND EDIT. IT'S NOT A PRIVATE CLUB, YOU ARE ALL INVITED!
  19. To be fair, worldanvil.com won an Ennie in 2019 for "Best Digital Aid". It says so right on their main page: http://www.worldanvil.com
  20. News: Jason has decided that herogames.com cannot host the wiki on-site. I understand this, because there are security risks and headaches involved with adding a wiki component to the forums. But I wanted to ask him first because I didn't want to drive traffic away from this site. I honestly think the off-site wiki will still drive traffic to here, herogames.com, and that is partly my objective. And I/we will direct people back here as much as possible on the other site. Vote time: I set August 1, 2020 as the wiki launch, and that's still easily within our grasp. My question is: which site? Please vote! 1) fandom.com 2) worldanvil.com I personally prefer fandom.com, because I love how they did the Forgotten Realms wiki, which has been my inspiration/model for this project. Please check out the Forgotten Realms wiki to see what I mean. Note how they have links for different versions of characters--we could do that with our 6e/5e/4e etc. conversions. Link: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Tarrasque NOTE: The project is that we are building a complete Champions campaign wiki, including character write-ups, etc. It is in 6e, but conversions into other editions are not only welcome but also necessary! Anyone who is reading this can join and edit. THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE CLUB! YOU DON'T NEED PERMISSION!
  21. That seems pretty cool. We're trying to get it set up here on herogames.com first. If that doesn't work out, we will use worldanvil.com or perhaps fandom.com
  22. I like these ideas. I think the Dr. D idea is grand, but I think the execution would have to be handled carefully. I'd want to see this female Dr. D have a somewhat normal female upbringing, in a private school perhaps, and not know that she's a female clone until adulthood. She'd have to live a woman's life is what I mean. If she always knew she was a female clone of a man, it just wouldn't feel as authentic. The Firewing idea is super as well. I'd be tempted to keep Firewing and have this another Malvan (is that the right word?). Maybe have Firewing die and she is sent to the quadrant in his place. I can't remember the origin details for some reason--I think I'm just going from my memory of his ancient Enemies entry.
  23. Yes. And a lot of Champions villains are like that, I think. And it's how I do my homebrew villains. "Gee, it would be cool if a villain had Lex Luthor's personality but Professor X's powers..." (Wait, did I do that because they're both bald? LOL)
