      I've been busy using my powers for evil again! I've really been digging this design as it's coalesced into a love letter to 90's WoD game-books so I thought I'd share. Putting together some samples to drum up work. Perfect opportunity to make this, and show off the tech stack behind it. Gotta prove that I actually am a coder who also designs.

      Like AB and crazy enough to dive back in? Shoot me a message and I'll tell you more about the project. I can use creative minds. All news, help, and associated files are managed via CMS, so no crazy commands to write other than some light markdown. 🙂

      Some screens:

      Chargen

      vamp wiki

      For a very very close fallen friend. Anita Blake was her absolute favorite. RIP.

      No Rest for the Wicked!

              @dizzy Awesome! That's what I'm hoping for, haha! If I can even get a few people to stress test this thing I'd be over the moon. 🙂

                I read this as Bridgerton: An Anita Blake RPG and was confused at first

                Edit: The layout looks frigging fantastic.

                    Development is going well on this! Homepage created and responsive - working on login service now. I'm going serverless on this experiment. - so I have roughly half the development time. No, I'm not using MUSH, but I /did/ start this thread with the term MUSH-like. ^_^

                      I love these layouts! I spent some time on a game playing a character who had a zine like website. I like to think my presentation captured a lot of what you have here, but yours are super much better. If an entire game was in this same sort of 'mood' it'd be wonderful!

                        Woot! Login system complete. Today is about getting the wiki formatted up so my content creators can start adding context to the game. 🙂

                          Oh! And my loading screen. It's worth a LOL to those who know - but essential Portland. 🙂

                            I have been itching to play an Anita Blake verse MU* again. Oh, the memories.

                              @kumakun a-maz-ing. You're really capturing the essence of hipster Portland here, and as a native, I love it.

                                Starting to think about sheet design now. There was a lot of deliberation over what system use for this. Freeform Universal by Peril Planet /almost/ won. In the end though, we needed something with a little more crunch for settling disputes without too much need for staff interpretation. So! We went with Chaosium's Basic Roleplaying system. One of my favorites for years. 🙂
