Know, brave wanderers, that we live in the dawn of a terrible new age. Our great-grandfathers speak of an age undreamed of, a shining time of plenty, when the wilderness was not so wild to us and the earth was our mother who provided all things. That was before drought and famine set each tribe at the throats of its rivals. Before the sorcerer-slavers came across the salt-foamed sea from Atlantis and stole a generation of our people, or the Sea Wolves turned the coast into a red tide of blood and slaughter. Before the Shenites and Skadians came with their new gods and strange ways, and before we knew the fear of Ruskar war parties. More ominous still are the dark storm clouds gathering on spiritual horizons. The spirits were once our guides and allies, but now, with the coming of the mists, terrible beasts that have no place in a sane world stalk through the otherworldly vapors. Our future is pregnant with dangers unimagined. Stay awhile and sit by the warmth of the fire, for it is a wise youth who will listen to what an aging warrior has lived to know.
- Unknown Elder

The World’s First Complete Superhero RPG – IS BACK! VILLAINS & VIGILANTES RETURNS!
Villains And VigilantesTM – the world’s FIRST complete superhero RPG – is back!
In 1979, Jeff Dee and Jack Herman created the original Villains And VigilantesTM, the game that brought classic comic book style superheroes into the world of role-playing games. It inspired thousands of crossover fans between comics and gaming, and spawned dozens of imitations.
Villains And VigilantesTM is legendary among role-playing games for its dynamic random super-powered character generation system, its accessible, open and fast-paced rules, and the imaginative, far-ranging campaign universe created by Jeff Dee and Jack Herman.
This latest edition of the game - dubbed version 2.1 - revives the 1982 version with a few corrections and rules additions. It also features brand new illustrations from co-creator Jeff Dee.
