A lot of DMs use it to plan D&D campaigns.

Ideas from Roll20:

Idea Marketplace

Roll20 seems to be about the playing experience of tabletop games. Indent is about the planning experience.

Would be worth checking to see if Roll20 has any sort of automatic input that we could format output to handle.

From Obsidian Portal:

There should probably be a dashboard of your content after you log in
Achievements might add a few neat perks (x words in a story, x words written per time, x characters planned, etc)
For universes, give users a nice URL to share (/drusepth/diablo-universe) or something
Filter characters by location would be useful
They don't show character fields if they have no data
Being able to add GMaps markers to uploaded maps (and provide information on click) would be awesome.
Having each plan page link to a blog post about my plans that type would be rad

OP has tabs for characters/maps/items, but they're nothing more than 2-3 large textboxes for description, background, etc.

EpicWords is more of a campaign blogging system. They have pages for characters but they're name/race/campaign, and have open ended fields for background and other info.

drusepth commented 11 years ago

IMGUR album has the following fields for characters that I don't have:

Title (prince, princess, etc)
Nature
Demeanor (I have mannerisms)
Skills
Flaws
Allies (Friends?)
Rivals

WolfLair/RealmWorks seems to be a Scrivener version of RPG planning. Lots of in-depth stuff, nothing jumped out as anything I haven't implemented, requires downloading/installing, and has a complicated UI.
