The World of Lia

Welcome to
The World of Lia

reated in 1982 by
Game Master Charles D. Hail

26 years by all those adventurous
spirits listed on the Players' Page.

The booming voice of the Game Overseer & Designer says:

The true measure of any hero is in his heart.  Here, we pay tribute to the adventurous spirits behind the heroes of the World of Lia . . .


The Players & GM

The World of LIa wouldn't be the fascinating place that it is without all those who have breathed life into the characters for over 27 years.

*June 2009 update: Stephen Orr has recently made contact.

*March 2010 update: Charles Wellington recently made contact and he may soon join the ongoing RK Campaign.  However, we also got some tragic news this month.  Shag contacted Adam Dunn through Facebook around March 16th.  By the 18th, Adam had confirmed a couple of us as friends on his Facebook page.  Unfortunately, we have learned from his sister that Adam Dunn passed away on March 19th, 2010.  We all are saddened by his passing and frustrated that it came just days after finally finding him again.
