Shadow World was supposed to provide complete system information for both Rolemaster and Fantasy Hero. Unfortunately, official support for Fantasy Hero was only half-hearted. However, I prefer to use the Hero System rules for my own Shadowspace campaign.

Since much of the flavour of Shadow World comes from Rolemaster, a lot of Shadow Hero is my own interpretive conversion of those rules to Fantasy Hero; furthermore, there is a strong vein of sci-fi in Shadow World, so I am also adapting elements of Spacemaster and Dark Space to the Hero System.

So, without further ado, I give you Shadow Hero. Please let me know if you find it useful...

Shadow Hero Rules

Characteristics

Shadow Space Campaign

Shadowspace is my fantasy/sci-fi campaign set on the Shadow World of Kulthea, a.k.a. Ceril VII, in the Devonian Province of the Terran Imperium.

There are 7 parts to my Shadow Space Campaign:

1. Jaiman	5. Shadow World (Fantasy)	7. Shadow Space (Fantasy/Sci-Fi)
2. Emer
3. Devon	6. Terran Space (Sci-Fi)
4. Kashmere

Shadow Master Rules

Shadow Master is the house rules that I used for Rolemaster in my Shadow Space campaign. These are the rules that I converted.

I have incorporated elements from I.C.E.'s Rolemaster, Rolemaster Standard System, Rolemaster Fantasy Roleplaying, Spacemaster, Cyberspace, Darkspace, and Silent Death games.
