in The "Review my Campaign" thread July 2020

So I just realized I've been dumping this into the wrong thread, and wanted to get some advice/reviews on what I've come up with. Made some mechanics changes and gave it some flavor that I think clarifies and and makes it a little more inviting. htt…

@Keryth987 fhe whole aesthetic of the Portal is great. I looked all over for the favorite button only to realize I'm already a fan!

So I've got the basic template for posting Fight stats. The numbers on the left in each column are for the left side team, the right side obviously for the right side team. In this example, Team Scales won 2 of 3 Contests, so they would be considere…

in Secrets feature July 2020

Don't know if this has been thrown out already, but I'd love the ability to categorize secrets. If I could sort them into either predetermined or custom fields like "story", "character", "item", ect., that would make my life as a constant notes writ…

Plenty of updates. Let me know what you guys think. A bit of delay getting into Dragon week to kind of test stuff out, but the FFL is coming along as a fully autonomous idea. As a numbers/analytical kind of guy, I'm getting more and more excited to …

So there's NO way to randomize like I was thinking. _But_, you can add a gif as the background instead of just black if you're looking to spice up the splash screen!

in Alternatives to Obsidian Portal? July 2020

Troll account. This and a few others for awhile were just pulling reddit and quara questions from up to a couple years ago just to bash OP. This one is pretty mild, but a couple were really pulling gems. I always recommend the following for.. "speci…

in Left Rail Modification July 2020

It may be worth investing time in building a location menu just on the front page instead. I used a box format for the wiki in Cold Truce and it's worked out well. Take a look at the more popular Portals and you'll find a lot of easier options than …

Thanks @GamingMegaverse! I enabled social media buttons to make it easier to share. We should be doing the first session of Dragon Week this Friday. My plan is to run the session, post the usual session write up, then put the stats and performance o…

The Meaty Bears are a real thing!! When I found them I changed up my plan for that session that day to my players fighting at a butcher and in a giant meat locker, just to face these monstrosities lol The Teams are all NPCs. No actual players/people…

Quick bump- I made the page public. Check out the splash screen flare and tell me what you think Still need to work out targeting mobile to make it more stable on a small screen, but full effect on actual screen. https://shadesoffear.obsidianportal…

And btw @GamingMegaverse, the campaign is public but this stuff is a surprise for the players, so its hidden for now. But if you wanna bet some virtual something after you see the spreads and stats after the first round, I'm totally down ;-)

in Dragon Week! July 2020

@thean I am unfortunately woefully unprepared for anything but a half-assed skype stream. So I could make it public, but it wouldn't be nearly as polished as I wish it could be. But that said, I'm now thinking of starting a sperate West Marshes styl…

So I was originally thinking of just a little in game mechanic for the event. I was playing around with a Creat-your-own league generator, and realized A) I dont have enough time to go whole ham on it right now or in time. And B) my players probably…

Thanks for the ideas @thaen! That would be a super cool vibe. I especially like the idea of the spectators being part of a "Fantasy Fantasy League". The more I think about it.... I totally want to run or start some sort of Fantasy Fantasy League! Se…

So I've been trying to do some lateral thinking about this. It seems like there is no way to do this with just CSS and HTML So maybe some of you CSS whizzes can tell me if I'm just throwing too much spaghetti at the wall. Instead of creating a whole…

in Sanity Mechanic July 2020 edited July 2020

I mostly have the outlines and rules to help guide the players and give them kind of jumping off points. It's defenitly a fluid mechanic that I'm willing to play with on the fly if they want to do something interesting. I got the idea from seeing al…

I totally dig this! But I'm curious- is there a way to have a random splash screen? As in different each time you go to the page? I'd love to add a little more aesthetic to https://shadesoffear.obsidianportal.com/ for example. Even Stack Overflow se…

Thanks @GamingMegaverse! It's worked out really well actually! I love it because I can slide in little narrative pieces and really tempt to players to spend. They've really been playing to their traits to gain the points and develop their characters…

in Using a PC as an NPC in a different campaign? May 2020

I've thrown the idea out as well @DungeonMasterLoki! There are a few of us who would actually be into it. I've pitched at least a sort of Notebook or GM binder where you can link things from one "Content Campaign" to others on your account. Not sure…

in Using a PC as an NPC in a different campaign? May 2020

I don't believe there is any cross campaign compatible stuff. You can create a hyperlink, but it would just be visiting the page of a different campaign.
