    Imaginary Friends Update

    The work has begun. I am approximately ten thousand words in, and am working on the character sheets for it. This adventure has fifteen sheets, including complex and detailed interview sections, and is constructed with a series of events and a series of insertable complications to make the adventure as simple or as complex as a GM needs. The promise of four to five maps, including the basics of what a GM needs to run one of the organizations I've mentioned several times in my products, will be included in the adventure as well.

    It's my hope this adventure will make people really sit up and take notice.

    But it's also my hope it will be one of the most brilliant and different ideas for superhero adventures ever published.

    I am 15,000 words in. I have completed the Imaginary Friends in question, plus the main villain, Mr. Wumbles.

    Tomorrow, I start work on a boy named Toby. Heh. Heh. Heh.

    Glad to hear how well it's coming along. I remember how excited you were about the project at the Con

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    I am now 22,000 words in. According to the methods Dave prefers, I am doing villains and sheets first, followed by maps, followed by adventure text.

    I have completed the following sheets.

    Georgie, the Singing Giraffe
    Polly Pooper, the Pooping Parrot
    Jack Bombem!
    Lisa
    Mr. Wumbles
    Toby Doherty
    Lord Dominus

    I am currently working on the sheet for a villain called "Abyss."

    (Repeats Trailer)

    What if there was a group of children who had imaginary friends?

    What if those imaginary friends were real?

    Now, someone is killing them.....

    How do you fight a serial killer who doesn't exist?

    How do you stop a villain whose very weakness is his strength?

    Meet Mr. Wumbles...

    Your heroes will never be the same....

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    Like all my products, it's really a supplement with an adventure wrapped around it. I do get pretty good to great reviews, though.

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    I have completed the character sheet for Abyss. Next up. Lady Warp. There's also a whole bunch of specialized agent sheets in this adventure, along with a couple vehicles, tactics list, and a brief organizational history. Once I get the villains done, that goes to Dave. Then I draw the maps and send them to Dave. Then comes the actual adventure and flavor text (Those sections that I haven't already written). Ideally, I should be done by the end of the year. I didn't realize just how much STUFF there was in this one. My hope is "Before Thanksgiving, I'll finish this thing."

    Today I broke the 25,000 word mark. I feel liberated. God, there's a lot of sheets in this adventure.

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    Mmm. Marshmellows. The adventure is pretty dark. Part of that is because when I ran the adventure, it was pretty dark. Part of that is because it's the perfect thing to release when it's likely that next year's big Gencon release is probably Horror Hero.

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    Lady Warp is complete! I am at 27,846 words.

    Tomorrow I will begin the sheet of Totem, the Chimeric Man! Ideally all my sheets will be done by the end of October, and all my Maps by the end of November. Not so ideally, this should be ready by February or March.

    Re: Imaginary Friends Update

    The number of sheets has expanded to 23 between agents, robots, and all that other stuff. Totem's sheet is done, so I'll be working on his background over the next couple of days.
