Aye, Dark Overlord!--need idea cards!

[Korts]

For those who don't know, here's the rules with an introduction and everything: http://new.fantasyflightgames.com/ffg_c ... ok_eng.pdf

/in so far:
Harvey Pew
mykonian
Cybele
Sudo_Nym
ortolan
UltimaAvalon
springlullaby
Drench
animorpherv1
ZazieR

All I need at the moment from the players is 5-10 idea cards of their own making.

[Harvey Pew]

I think

Aye, Dark Master

would be better suited for forum play. It is more structured, has clearer card uses, and interruptions/freeze could be more easily handled.

[Korts]

I haven't played that version before. I'll see what I can find about that ruleset.

[mykonian]

I think I will like the game.

[Harvey Pew]

bump.

[Cybele]

Weep not for me, for I am dead.

[Sudo_Nym]

I'm in. Apparantly saying just that isn't above the minimum characters, though.

[ortolan]

In. I'd love to play, I'm having a look at the rules now.

[Korts]

I'm glad for the interest, although this means I have to go dig up the cards...

[UltimaAvalon]

I'm probably /in. lemme take a look at the rule

I do love blaming people for no reason though...

[Korts]

Well, I found the Rigor Mortis glare cards and the interruption/blame cards on the net, but I can't find any of the idea cards. Here's what I'm gonna do: I'm going to ask all of you who /inned (Harvey Pew, mykonian, Cybele, Sudo_Nym, ortolan, UltimaAvalon) to get working in paint and make five to ten idea cards. It doesn't have to be particularly detailed or good, just something to work with.

Here's how an idea card looks like:

Name:

A short name for the card (example "The Bridge Over The Chasm"); the object of the card may be a location, a NPC, an item, a weapon, anything.

Description:

A short description (above example: "The shaky bridge between Kragmorta and Kathadin")

Picture:

A picture relevant to the name/description/both (above example: well, a bridge over a chasm)

[Cybele]

I'll keep updating this post as I get more finished. My card size is 137x459. Everything I'm doing is with photobucket, for those like me that don't have Photoshop.

[Cybele]

Okay, so far I have:

These are very good. BTW for those who don't have photoshop there's always Gimp--it's free source (I may be vigged by Richard Stallman for misuse of the phrase though) and it can do most anything photoshop can.

[UltimaAvalon]

mine are going to be done in MS Paint, and will look shoddily done, on purpose, cus I find that humorous

[springlullaby]

Looks fun, may I play?

[Korts]

Looks fun, may I play?

Sure.

And I don't mind humorously shoddy work, either.

[ortolan]

same

[Drench]

So /in if it's not too late.

[Korts]

not too late at all.

[animorpherv1]

/in for game.

[ZazieR]

/in for this

[Korts]

k, as said above, I'll need idea cards from you guys as well. Nothing fancy, just something to have when you're trying to add to the story.

[Sudo_Nym]

I'm on too many computers of low quality to be able to draw up cards at the moment, but here's some ideas:

1. Very Shiny Object (Oooooooo! It sparkles!)
2. Conveniently Placed Barnes & Noble (Curse you, bookstore!)
3. Guardians who ask riddles (So one of you always tells the truth, but the other always lies?)
4. Guy Who Insists on explaining the plot to The Wicker Man (No, I don't care that Nicholas Cage was in it).
5. Inexplicably Young Wizard with uncanny level of unlikely skill (What an interesting scar!)
6. The Meta Joke (Sorry, I was busy updating Ninja Burger).
7. Global Warming (Maybe if Gore took off the sweater?)
8. Delicious Cookies (Mmmm... Oatmeal & Mosquito).
9. Board with a Nail in It (It's the Gentleman's Club!)
10. Start of Baseball Season (The Cubbies will break the curse this year, I can feel it!)

So if somebody wants to illustrate them, I'd be grateful.
