Thought I'd take a moment to say hello to everyone here; new to Obsidian Portal, but, loving the tool so far, and using it pretty much to exclusion for keeping track of my first 'official' 4E D&D game. If any of you want to take a peek at it, before the first session sits down (this Sunday), the site is here: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaign/sir_horatios
As for myself, I've been at this whole gaming thing for far too long now. I fear I cannot be stopped.
Hi there! Have fun poking around. I recommend sneaking peeks at everyone else's stuff for inspiration on "oh hey, you can do THAT with this site?" sorts of things.
Hey DW, nice page. I like the concept of your game as well. It seems like there are a lot Sigil/Planescape games around here. I'm beginning to suspect a conspiracy...
bq. It seems like there are a lot Sigil/Planescape games around here. I’m beginning to suspect a conspiracy…
That's exactly what the Illuminated sect _wants_ you to think. They just don't want you looking in their direction. ; )
Your game looks great, DW; I'll be keeping an eye on it. It may have only been a sidebar in the _DMG_ but I'm relieved that Sigil is part of the 4E cosmology. It's such a magnificent setting - I'm pretty sure my next campaign will be _Planescape_ as well.
Thank you much, everyone. The first game was played last night, and went really well, in my humble opinion. Now to drudge up what actually occurred into a log-like format, all the while, pretending to work.
For most of the portraits, I'll be honest, I'm using the Wizards of the Coast free PC portraits they put up - http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/pc
For the NPCs of Camden and Reuel, I'm recycling some old comissioned art from a friend of mine, and the Lady of Pain was fan art - I tracked down the artist, and she gave me her blessings (I just need to finish the credits so I can link back to her site).
In case anyone's interested, I've finished up putting the first 'logs' from the first session, and the second is well on its way. If anyone's into 4E, you can actually see a number of items created for the purpose of this game, as well as some monsters. I think it's neat, anyway.
The third session took place this past Sunday, in the process of throwing together the notes for it now - been a bit lazy about adding the items, but, I can throw them up in the 'crunch' soon.
