Faction Tokens

Faction Tokens

I did those for my roll20 game but maybe they’re useful for your game, too. One big piece of PNG picture to be convinient, you have to cut out the one(s) you need. I hope you like them.

So, I already shared the gorgeous poster of Doskvol that a friend of mine was nice enough to print out for my play…

So, I already shared the gorgeous poster of Doskvol that a friend of mine was nice enough to print out for my play group, and I’m back with another awesome bit of coolness. One of the players in my Blades in the Dark campaign is a new role-player, having just started gaming in the past 7 months, and a musician. He made a theme song for the D&D game he ran for his friends, and now he’s done the same for my table!

I absolutely love passionate players, and this was very cool, so I share his hard work with y’all!

Weller the Shoe, a familiar figure of the Dockside, staggering home from the drug dens, red of eye, pinprick pupils and nostrils encrusted with powder. His man Veck finds him and takes him home most evenings, knowing that Weller will most likely spend their savings tomorrow. Would that the slums could get cleaned out of those slags that poison its people..

Troon spends her days drinking in Dockside establishments, frittering away her meager Leviathan hunter’s shares. Her nights are wandering the docks and staring out to sea. There’s something out there and it seems only she can see it.

I think of Callum as becoming like Frank Sobotka from S2 of The Wire. Maybe a little larcenous, mostly loyal and valiant. Nonetheless getting increasingly dirty as he tries to make a place for his distrusted ethnic enclave amongst the shipyards and docks of an unbelievably corrupt city. Some Vigilantes might hang him from a lightpost as a warning, but maybe he’s as good as it gets in Doskvol.

Question: What’s the font?

Hi, is the font that’s used for headlines in the book publicly available? If not, do you know any alternatives?

I’ve got a friend who does graphic design for a living, and she’s got access to a printer that can do 13×19 posters!

Now I don’t know whether or not couriers in canon Doskvol are daring young parcour types. Vaulting from narrow gable to slippery slate rooftop to avoid the Bluecoats. Kind of hard to avoid that version in my head though, so here you go.

Also blind owls.

Vigilantes Nobodies Set:

Bendis Haig, the vile smelling sewage worker. If poor Bendis were a PC, that drain snake would be magical or significant, perhaps he would battle ghosts infesting the pipes of the church.

He’s not though, and it’s not. He’s just some unfortunate bastard that spends everyday wading through filth to keep Doskvol running and maybe earn enough for a pint down at the pub.

Adda may look like a prune of a woman, but she traffics in a similar business to our happy lot. When society cuts a lame or sick beastie out of the herd, when a lord or lady, mover or a shaker don’t have the protection of their fellows anymore, there’s Adda on ’em like a hunting hawk. Gossip pays all right, especially if it has the ring of truth to it. She bloodlets the rich and powerful in her own way, and my ma will always buy her books for it too. Dirty sexy stuff that.
