EVOCATIVE CITY SITES: The Rogue's Gallery Tavern
"I am an explorer, a man of action, and foiler of nefarious plots. Come read my book, Evocative City Sites, and I, Owain Northway, will regale you with a tale of a den of iniquity. I will tell you of The Rogue's Gallery Tavern."
Evocative City Sites: a modular systemless supplement detailing small locations that you could find in any urban campaign setting. Each site is detailed with its own cartography, two unique npcs, 5 adventure seeds,a high resolution image for your virtual table top, and all presented with the unique, useful, and entertaining form of Owain Northway’s first person point-of-view guidebook.
The Rogue's Gallery Tavern is the place where bad guys hangout, plotting disreputable deeds or drowning the sorrows of defeat. You will find only scum and villainy here, yet neutrality reigns, allowing friend and foe to enjoy a pint and relax...usually.
Designer: Steven D. Russell (A Witch's Choice)
Editor: Robert Emerson (Litorians)

Good idea and some nice work.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

That street looks familiar - like I've been there. Is it based on a photo of a UK village?
Just curious.

Look for Chit Chat, Sandmann's blog. Enjoy.
It even looks familiar to me... and the only time I visited the UK I went to London.
I think that's the point: it's an image that everyone has memories of

It looks like the street in the town in Dorset where the Hovis bike ad was shot.
Looks good.
I think it'd be more interesting if I knew more of your work.

Glad to see this went well. I saw this in the development stages and it's a great piece of line-art inside. It's a circular tavern with booths and tables. There's a couple of pages of plot hooks and other nice context. Congrats Steve, hope it does well.
