Fantasy Hero is a role-playing game book that supports the Fantasy genre using the Hero System® rules. Since the release of the 5th edition of the Hero System, Steven S. Long of Hero Games has published a new version of the Fantasy Hero book, as well as several supplementary publications to support Fantasy Hero-based campaigns. The Hero system book is required to make full use of this work in a game. The book contains information that is useful to both the Game Master (GM) and the Players.
The 5th edition book is a fairly extensive work, with 416 pages of text bound in a stiff-paper cover. Each 21.5 × 27.5 cm-sized page is printed in double-column text with occasional side-bar information. The interior is moderately illustrated with non-color drawings, while the jacket has a full-color painting.
A substantial portion of the book consists of information about fantasy gaming that is non-game-system-specific. This content can be used by game masters who want to create their own campaign setting, or to modify an existing publication to suit their interests. The remainder of the work then delves into specifics of the Hero system in a fantasy campaign. However the flexible nature of the system is utilized throughout the book, allowing the Game Master to attune the rules to fit their setting.

Improvised Magic in the Hero System - This began life as a Usenet post in 1996. I decided to expand on it and rewrite it some because a good improvisational magic system is something I've been wanting for a long time (or, as I put it in 1996, the Holy Grail of a magic system). This doesn't use Variable Power Pool, though it does break the Hero System power rules pretty badly (hopefully in a way that's not too unbalancing!).
