D&D: Serious Business (Click picture for full size)

One of the members of my D&D group mentioned that there were Touhou based power cards for D&D 4.e. For those of you that don’t play D&D, Power cards are basically rule reminders that allow you to keep track of all the powers and abilities that characters have in a turn in D&D 4e. The idea behind the cards we made before were to speed up the game without needed to flip through the books to clarify what the power entails.

This is a thickly nested layer full of geekiness. The Touhou cards are based characters from a style of bullet-hell video game shoot ‘em ups.  A niche Japanese style video game with an over the top anime style character serves as a placeholder image for a Japanese card game based on a shoot em up video game. Then, someone adapts this unrelated card game using the template with Touhou characters to make the powers cards from a fantasy role playing game. Make sense?

Regardless of how the things came into being, the power cards are prettier than ours.

I found a Touhou style character creator, which allows you to create your own character. I decided to explore this to see if I could make a character. Then it sort of got out of hand and I made the entire party. The picture above was the results.
