: One Money Unit!
: Review Cultist July 14, 2014, 02:24:34 PM
Hey, so I did a thing after getting a challenge from Aaron in the latest Dreamlands game. Posted a link in the comments of that episode but here it is on the forum, hope it looks good.

Is the smoking dragon from the New World? I keep thinking that he's Tom's old dragonborn character.

Nice! I like the quotes as the counterfeit deterrence. Any chance we'll see the backside of the unit?

Older than that.  Not even sure if it was from a recorded game...?

The RPPR dragon has never been in a game - he is the stereotypical PC - trench coat, katana, and smokes a cigarette to be cooler. I had a friend draw the original logo right after the podcast began. I guess he could be named Mifune, after my pet bearded dragon (who is named after the actor Toshiro Mifune) but I hadn't given it much thought tbh

If there is enough demand... or I have another 2 hours to kill, sure! XD

Or it could be like monopoly money? lol

Also Looks like I have to fix the spelling of "Mifune". Honestly, I didn't think the dragon was named Mifune, I just didn't have another good name for the text block there other than the "RPPR Dragon".

If you make a back side I will absolutely print some up and bring them to the RPPR Meet-Up. We can give them out as prizes for stuff.

It will be done.

Any ideas for the two back images? Was thinking of the RPPR logo in one, but I don't know exactly what to toss in the other? Robot assassin flying through the air? Balgrim? Ideas are welcome.

In dice we trust?

One money unit

Left Image [Dice] Right Image [Zombie]

EDIT:  The small print in the background of this side should read "Buy my book"
Keep the "Horrible monster" as is on the other side.

P.S.
Love the bill you made.  It's a excellent.

The regular podcast banner, or the AP podcast banner? 'Cause the AP banner are all characters from the different campaigns and a few oneshots. I think the regular banner are just generic adventurer types.

The characters surrounding the RPPR dragon (Mifune now?) on the AP logo I'm not sure.

Also, if there's a way we can work in "I like this plan, and I'm excited to be apart of it," in latin that would be great.
: Re: One Money Unit!
: Review Cultist July 15, 2014, 11:24:48 AM
How about "Tom Church Everyone." In place of "In God we Trust."?

Also, I love all these ideas so far.

I for one would like to see a reference to dog punching. I know it is not technically a RPPR podcast it is one of my favorite bits.
: Re: One Money Unit!
: Gorkamorka July 15, 2014, 11:38:19 AM
"A dog we punch" in stead of "In God we trust"
Has the same number of syllables and I like the God / Dog letter play.

Having said that I still like "In sharp edged dice we trust" or some variation of that.

Serious: You should put the RPPR url on there somewhere so that it can be used in stead of flyers in conventions.

Totally! The pyramid and Eye of Providence should totally be the FBI dog memorial! "Tom Church Everyone" and "Sharp-edged dice; Truly Random" could also work as more "counterfeit deterrence."

Oh, and like maybe the Amante or the Fisher of Men puppet instead of eagle emblem?

I doodled a few possible markings for Money Unit, like $ or €, though most look like a man in a hat. Feel free to appropriate as neccessary!

One vote for the Fisher of Men puppet.

OH MAN HOW DID I JUST THINK OF THIS.

The anti-counterfeit measure is The Befuddlement Algorithm. 

Does anyone know what the origins of the characters on the RPPR logo are?

I think Ross said the Smoking Katana Dragon was meant as a send-up of bad "coolguy" player characters.

Oh, for the final rendition of both the front and back money unit bill, should it be grey-scale or should I keep the color?
: Re: One Money Unit!
: Kamen July 15, 2014, 04:04:04 PM
I'd say that a gray-scale would probably work best for printing reasons, plus it works a little better matching the aesthetic of cash. Although a lot of bank notes are multi-colored now, so there's that.
: Re: One Money Unit!
: Review Cultist July 15, 2014, 04:34:12 PM
OK well, I'll grey-scale after I complete it. With that here's a teaser to one of the bank note images in full:
