GURPS: The Dark Project
This is a page for my good friend Ryan Franklin's GURPS: The Dark Project game, which we are currently playing weekly. The game is based on the excellent computer game, Thief: The Dark Project.
We have messed around with the Thief glossary given on the Through The Looking Glass site and adapted it to our own uses. Check out our version of The Guide To The City. Note that I have tried to reduce the amount of references that we wouldn't know about - but I kept in quite a bit about the Hammerites and pagans that we might not know about, for idea work and continuity-fiddling. As always, everything is in Ryan's hands. Also, some of the stuff in there is from fanfics and so forth.
You should also check out the Masterbook Cards GURPS Conversion that I did, to translate the "dramatic" portions of the Masterbook cards to GURPS. We're using these rules in the game.
Michelle Pfeiffer as Angel Fontaine, torch singer.
(Played by Kim Applegate.) Character sheet for
126-point version of Angel.
Joseph Fiennes as "Fitz" Hurstwood, penny-press
publisher.
Description of the Old Quarter Courier.
Issues of the Old Quarter Courier. The big stories, anyway...
Fitz's notes. Fitz's to-do list.

I play the character and I'm
writing this page, so I get two pictures, dammit. In this picture, he
explains something to Town Guardsman Snelling, well-known as the worst cop
in any RPG ever played.
Here's a picture of Viola Gwynham, aka "The Scarlet Fox", the daughter of
a minor
noble who has turned to thievery (and giving the proceeds to the poor) out
of boredom and contempt for her peers.
Viola is played by Sara Kuwahara in our game and by Linda
Cardellini in these pictures. This is more of what she looks like when
she's dolled up to be doing court type noble type stuff.
Prior's watch has some magical doodad properties. Another view. Yet even another view.
Some images of Prior's place in the ancient clocktower: A doorway. A longer view. Perhaps that
last picture depicts it as it existed before the city grew out around it?
It's creepy anyway.
Here's Adam's character, Hugh "Never trust
anyone with two first names" Brian, merchant and secret thief.
Another picture of Hugh Brian.
Good lord! He gets three pictures!!!
