alternative to Obsidian Portal?

Marcus · 01-07-2012, 06:56 PM

I'm hoping to find a free website to document my campaign for my players and myself. Obsidian Portal is too visually noisy and there's too many dragons flying around...

I just want something simple, where I can list game logs, NPC's, maps, etc.

any suggestions?

You could use www.myth-weavers.com - set up a forum for your game, and put everything on that.

There's www.wikidot.com. It's a generic (i.e. non-gaming) wiki, but you can create domains, which means that your "Characters" page is unique to someone else's "Characters" page. In fact you can own up to 20 domains, if you run different settings.

I'm just using Skydrive to host a OneNote notebook where I keep my IST game information.

The folks at wikia.com have been very easy to work with for me and my gaming group.

Speaking of OneNote. We just use a shared notebook that everyone synches to when they are at our home. If we did much when the group wasn't here then having it online would be cool also though so YMMV.

I recently made an account on Infrno.net. Haven't used it much, but it's got a built-in game scheduler and virtual tabletop / video chat. Might be worth a look.
