A GURPS DUNGEON FANTASY CAMPAIGN

It's something that resonates with nearly every gamer: the thrill of taking a powerful, faux-medieval adventurer down into a cave (or a haunted forest, or a sinister stronghold), killing monsters, and taking their treasure. But a life as a wandering, homeless slayer of monsters isn’t all the legends suggest. Life on the road is costly, and it turns out that monsters don’t always have a lot of treasure. On top of that, the monster-killing treasure-hunting trade is getting downright competitive, what with every youngster who inherits a cheap blade from an old-soldier grandpa. But what are you gonna do? Quit? Don’t make me larf! The only answer is to hunt bigger monsters and better treasure, of course.
