Category: Blades in the Dark: Art

I put this together for my group’s third session – the plan is to do a new one before each session from now on (after all, the grunt work’s all done!). I wanted to create something that really shows how their actions have an impact – it’s not like they’re making headlines themselves yet, but the things they’ve done are starting to appear (indirectly, in most cases) in the press. I also took the opportunity to throw in some interesting hooks they could grab onto and use as inspiration for scores – I’ve not planned anything out beyond what’s on the page – as well as a few miscellaneous bits to bring the world to life. I’ll be printing out a copy (maybe broadsheet sized if I’m feeling fancy) for the table – if nothing else, it’s a nice in-world artefact!

I’m not a designer or layout expert by any means, but this was easy enough to throw together in Illustrator. If anyone wants the file so they can replicate it for their own group, lemme know and I’ll upload it 🙂
