Cr Sew Ee INTRODUCTION The GM’s (Gamemaster's) Introduction provides the Gamemaster with the back- ground needed to run the adventure. CHARACTERS This section contains infor- mation concerning both Player and Non-Player Characters in- volved in the adventure. Occa- sionally, only modifications to previously published Character information and Hero Points may be listed. See the full de- scription in the Gamemaster’s Manual for the the rest of that Character's statistics. ENCOUNTERS The DC Heroes Role-Playing system is based on encounters. That is, the Player Characters go from situation to situation instead of location to location. Each encounter is broken up into at least three sections: Setup, Player Information, and GM Information. When neces- sary there are also Jroubie- shooting sections, Rules sec- tions, and/or Sidebars to help the GM run the adventure. Encounters indicate which descriptions and maps are per- tinent to each situation.

Consequences of incomplete or failed adventures are also mentioned so that the GM can design further scenar- ios, if desired.
