[QUOTE="weem, post: 5068763, member: 9470"] Sometimes it's books, other times it's images. Even movies can inspire our games - whether it's ideas for our games as DM's, or for the characters we play as Players, almost anything can inspire us to create and imagine. So I am curious... [B][COLOR="DarkOrange"]As a DM, what is inspiring your current game(s)? Maybe a certain artist's work, or perhaps a book you are reading? As a Player, what is it that helps you get into your current character?[/COLOR][/B] I have a site devoted to things that I find inspiring (see sig) but I want to hear from others. I would also like to share some of your thoughts on said site so keep that in mind if it matters for any reason. I'll start here... I am a very visual person, so imagery inspires me and my [B]DM-ing[/B]. These two images in particular I've really enjoyed recently and have spurred much creativity...

Particularly, there are some characters in there that are very inspiring. [B]As a player[/B], I have a new character in one of the campaigns I play in. I found this image that really represented the vision I had for him (a Revenent Fighter)... [IMG]http://www.lastlands.com/upload/walker.jpg[/IMG] So yea, how about you?! [/QUOTE]
