Dungeon Fantasy customizes GURPS by talking it's sandbox approach to character design, where every ability can be acquired by most any character simply by paying its point cost, and instead requiring characters to chose a "Profession". These professions are analogues to [[Class|character class]] in D&D based system and have the usual range of fantasy heroes presented: Barbarians, Bards, Clerics, Clerics, Druids, Holy Warriors, Knights, Martial Artists, Scouts, Swashbucklers, Thieves, and Wizards.
The [[gamemaster]] is free to create professions of their own; all that entails is providing options on how to spend the 250 character points allotted for [[Character Creation|new character creation]]. Towards that end, here are some of my contributions:
