HERODesigner

Provided below are resources for Hero Designer, developed by Dan Simon and released by HERO Games.

I highly recommend Hero Designer. I've been using HD since early in v1, was an early beta tester, and have been a heavy user since its release as well. Its a great piece of software and significantly streamlines making characters, powers, what have you for the HERO System. The Character Packs for the individual publications, particularly the Bestiary and the UNTIL Super Powers Data Base are enormous timesavers. And, populating this website with characters was a relative snap thanks to HERO Designers flexible Export model.
