Title: Cards: Locations
Post by: Sygyrd on February 27, 2011, 07:56:17 PM

There is a great resource in use by SotC players, that as far as I can tell is not being used here.  I figured I'd give things a jump start by offering DFRPG cards here.  To quote Tonpa:

"The basic premise is easy. You look out some nice picture and with use of some card making program you make the basic premise. Then you add name, quality and if you like some side marker for GM:s aid. The main writing block then holds the Aspects. Put the card to Photobucket or similar online storage and post the card for general use."

http://bighugelabs.com/deck.php is a great site for generating said cards.

For Dresden Files I'm using the following conventions:
Colors: Earth (Mortal); Sky (Wizards and Werewolves); Fire (Demons); Water (Fairies); Onyx (Vamps); Quartz (Locations)
Title: (Name of Character)
Sub-title: (Type of Critter)
Description: (High Concept; Trouble/Motivation; Aspects; Relationships; and OWpagenumber for OW characters)

You can add icons to the cards to signify power level, but as these are subject to change during the course of a campaign, I'm leaving mine icon-less.

I'd like a form to print on the back of my cards that has key stats for the characters, but haven't found/made one yet.

I made a number of cards for my own campaign before I decided to post here and to do the OW Who's Who, so these cards won't agree with the above conventions in all respects.  I'll note them in the posts.

The following are pre-convention cards from Roger Zelanzy's Lord Demon.  Note the bottles are both artifacts and locations.  The others are planes in the Nevernever (or parts thereof).  These don't agree with the conventions noted above as I made them before I decided to post my cards and do the Our World "Who's Who" characters.

These cards are also pre-conventions, for my San Francisco game.

A bridge right in the middle of a pixie nation, I mean golf course, in McKinney, Tx..  Grogg (posted here...
http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,24499.0.html ) is the face of the bridge.

A rival golf course.  (This one's in SF, seeing as how McKinney's PbP is dead.)
