Back in the early 1990s, one of my roommates, Jason, went on an extended vacation for 6 weeks. My other roommate and I decided to see what kind of RPG we could make in the time he was gone. We worked day and night on the system and unveiled “Legends” to Jason upon his return. We played the game for close to a year and continually refined the system to where it was less laughable (the system itself, not the scenarios I cooked up) and ran much more smoothly than the original dice system we came up with.

Many years later, I pulled out the Word Perfect document, converted it to Word and started working on it some more… only to shelve it for lack of time.

Every few months, I get a wild hair to jump back into Legends and see what I can make of it. I think it’s a great system and has real promise at being successful. There are a few rough edges to the system that I need to work out, but just don’t have the time. Maybe, someday, hopefully, with luck, I’ll finish college and be able to devote some more time and energy to finishing off the game.

Wish me luck.
