Thank you for looking into our game, and ...

WELCOME to Life as IT SHOULD BE!

Adventurers of Renown Gaming System(TM) is a combat simulation game of man to man combat with arcane weapons.  This BBS hosted release version lets you and your friends play together or alone in the Ruins of Able-Wyvern.  This is the introductory module for the Adventurers of Renown Gaming System(TM) and it provides the best place to start out on your first few campaign adventures.  The module is statistically balanced (unless your SysOp has tampered with it), and will allow a fresh new character to grow in status and renown.

Unlike other games of this type, Adventurers of Renown: Ruins of Able-Wyvern(TM) encourages noble qualities.  Our philosophy--nurtured in the SCA--is that gaming simulations should help people develop, practice, and hone interpersonal skills beyond what our typical daily routines might demand.  I hope you will find this philosophy subtly woven into this module.  Your Gaming Objective, therefore, is to grow in popularity.  This is measured by your “Renown Characteristic”.  The manner by which you grow your ‘Renown’ is strictly your choice!
