Balabanto Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 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.

Balabanto Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 Re: Imaginary Friends Update (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.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balabanto Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 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."

Balabanto Posted September 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 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.

Balabanto Posted October 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balabanto Posted October 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 Re: Imaginary Friends Update The number of sheets has expanded to 23 between agents, robots, and all that other stuff.

Balabanto Posted October 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 Re: Imaginary Friends Update As I work on the Negafire Villain Sheet, I want to ask if there's any additional "Fan Service" I can provide in this publication. I usually take at least one fan suggestion, but there's so much already here that I'm not sure I can take much in the way of fan suggestions. Please be gentle when making these.

So that's nine sheets and a huge list of weapons. I should be done with this part of it soon. I wish I was further along, but these things do take time.

Balabanto Posted December 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Re: Imaginary Friends Update SPIDER Power Agent, complete. I'm sorry I'm a little slow right now, but I'm working 100 hours a week at my day job. This is the time of year where you make that commitment so that you can do things like go to Dundracon without your Regional Director going nuts.
