>>92829723/tg/ drawthreads have always been slow. If you want more artists involved, you'll either have to pick up a pen or get artists from elsewhere interested in these threads.
>>92830763...and ask what the artists is interested in.
>>92823516Yoooo, thanks drawfriend, they look very good, love the lyric addition. Would've preferred a more pronounced size difference between the custodes and the sister, but you've already completed it, so can't complain.
Anyone have any sketch requests?

>>92825440Most writers don't really understand the implications of the X-men and Brotherhood maintaining a revolving door policy towards each other.
>>92826720Technically, we're not talking about anything to do with God's light, Heaven, or His angels. This is a conceptually similar, but very much material phenomena wherein human souls transmigrate into different bodies as they experience organ failure. It's closer to an exotic legal code or medical practice than any kind of true supernatural process. One could consider the moral trappings of it to be evidence that it is itself an example of divine providence, but that would be a matter of extreme conjecture.
>>92832530Most mythologies have some level of worldly access to the afterlife or other "supernatural" places. The notion that the supernatural needs to be utterly inexplicable, unreliable, or inaccessible is a post-empirical cope trying to defend it from the historic traditions being rapidly falsified.A great many Christians throughout history, including no small number of clergy, assume that Heaven works much as depicted in D&D, where good people faithful to God awaken immediately after death to His kingdom. It's the premise of all the "[recently dead] is in a better place now" talk comes from.

>>92788062Biological? No.
>>92788062I GMed a game to 4 woman in a Victorian setting, game had very little rolling cause they just talked most of the time and made trivial things so most of it I just allowed it. Game was fine until I made a max rizz aristocrat to flirt with them, 2 of them actually got mad IRL cause they were fighting really hard to get the guy. The roleplay was meh at best, every player character acted in a highly anachronistic manner from speech to modern attitudes and values, they all shrugged at me when I made a passing comment about it at the end of a session.Just an aside I only ran this game to look for a compatible autistic gf but after session zero I never turned on the camera cause they were all ugly as sin.
>>92830213You should have put that last sentence first.

>>92832552What makes it awful?
Has anyone here played Smash Up??Is it any good??
>>92832591Yes.No.
If you're DM and a player does this, do you accept it or put your foot down?
>>92803563Sure, they can do that. Players doing cool creative stuff is cool and this is not some stupid bullshit that's going to trivialize every fight. At least the players are dealing with logistics instead of crying that they have to keep track of their carry weights.
>>92803563Damn. This comic is not good for 3etc players. Literally getting heated seeing him shit all over the Paladin solely for autistic min maxxing lmao. Having a hard time paying attention to the plot. It’s doing its job kek.

>>92832287Really? I recognize the name Monolith, bit can't think of what they make.Although, as a lover of AT-43 who owes a lot to that game, I'm not entirely sure I want it back? I'd love if they re-released the models for people. I want to stat up my Cogs and UNA for Grimdark Future, but my collection is 2,000 miles away.
>>92831283>Why dont they sell them anymore and why is their new stuff more generic?IDK. It makes me sad.
Has anyone played fallout wasteland warfare? I have friends that like fallout, and I'm at a place in my life the narrative/solo options sound appealing.
>>92832349They did the Conan board game. The ruling was in the French courts about the whole Confrontation-Sans-Detour fiasco, giving Monolith the rights after Sans-Detour lost them, and the ruling ended up being all of the defunct Rackham IPs. So they have it, even if they didn't intend to get it. If anything, at least the rights are known where they are in case someone comes along and wants to buy them.

>>92830996Easy, you get hit and lose hit points.
>>92831009Always is, rather.
>>92832107You can't because the rules don't permit. No metaphysical reason is required.
>>92823105“In the hobby” is a subset of “in the world, ever”, so yeah.
VTM fuckers out there, what are your guy's favorite clans, and why? Don't say any requiem shit, Chronicles is horrendous.
>>92809026Ventrue
God I love having hot sweaty sex
Fuck you, I like Chronicles.
>>92809026I actually like Brujah the best because VtM is at its best when it's hokey and overly dramatic. They're clearly inspired by classic 80s movies like the Lost Boys and Warriors, or characters like the Kurgan from Highlander. Just imagine being a Ventrue or Lasombra, and having to interact with a gang of vampiric Backstreet Boys, who hold the entire city under their sway, commit petty acts of vandalism in their free time, and every direct challenge to their rule is first met by angrily removing their shirts. It's absolutely hilarious.
Probably Setite since I love vampires, snakes, and playing the villain.
Should witches be mechanically different from wizards?
>>92826158Holy fuck I need this, where can I get it?
>>92790986This but unironically. Witches to me are apostate magic users who are unlicensed and self-deterministic. The magical equivalent of training someone to be the new blacksmith in your small village but with a lot more ritual circles and petitioning nature.Also diskworld. Headology is peak witch,
>>92790514depends on the setting magic system but generally yeah.
Should slashing be mechanically different from chopping?
The teaching of witches should be like the Moonshine version of Wizardry.Is it an arcane caster? YesIs it magic gathered by learning magic? Yes.But how it functions should differ in the flavor.Witches are spooky and that should be a prominent aspect of their magic, how it's more rural, how its more natural. It should feel like you took 2/3's cup druid 1 Cup wizard and 1/3rd cup warlock.if that makes sense.

>>92831928Also, if you're going to be making use of them, grab the old D&D web enhancement archive, as theres an abundance of material that had to be removed from the printed version due to page count.Some really useful content & fluff to add back in.
>>92831958The best to me is Ectopic Ally, as it makes for much more functional 3rd-level Divine Minds from having a creature under their control to keep in the then-miniscule area. Should have been Steed-like instead of spam for a FULLY functional Creation mantle (the Aura needs a Construct lasting hours early on, so unless you're a Warforged...), but oh well.You can also trade Divine Grace for Paladin-grade Turn Undead, which with Devotion feats is seriously worth considering even if you don't houserule Domain/Mantle transparency (I doubt there's RAW to construe into this) to trade the granted power for extras.
I'm reading a lengthy article about Necromancy in 3.5, and the person who wrote it keeps referring to classes having these hard limits on how many levels you should bother putting into them. Fighter and Wizard being classes that are "6 levels long". This person seems like he has the level of system autism where he knows what he's talking about. What gives here? Why are these classes a trap past 6 levels invested?
>>92832272Mostly because Prestige Classes I imagine.
>>92832272To be more specific, it's that PRCs are better than the bonus feats that are the only thing the base class gives you, as there's very few things needing more than three Fighter bonus feats and getting more value than a single feat in 5 Wizard casting PRC levels is trivial.
Ok no memes, no “the game is unsalvageable”. How would you fix up pic related so it’s actually good?
>>92832368No, I'll play D&D.
>>92832344I am a forever DM, I just ban the powerwankers from my table and keep the game going.But it would be nice to let my players play all of the classes, without me or them having to worry about outclassing everyone else and draining the fun of a shared activity after level 6...Seriously, what's the fun in playing a character that can solve any problem with a spell lot, without any kind of chance or risk involved? There's not even any creativity involved in the godamn thing.
>>92832433Nope, you can't do anything.
Simple. Make a fun story with competent players.other than that, expand the skills list a little bit.Toss out alignment.add more rascial features and strip away the whole "Cantrip, level 1, level 2" racial magic structure slump that Wizards have put themselves in.
Turn it into Castles and Crusades
>>92795176Anyone here familiar with Sentinel Comics?
>>92826550Fair enough. Got any ideas for Order or Chaos powers besides the blatantly obvious then?
>>92828846Stop bumping the thread with pointless questions. I told you to ask your players. DO NOT REPLY TO ME AGAIN.
>>92818777What makes Prowlers the go-to option?
>>92818203It's kind of trash. The setting doesn't make much sense at all. The story and characters are shit, but the existence of a spin off manga that completely moggs the main manga shows that you can still have a good story and characters in the setting.>>92820124>Massive, artificially bloated hero "industry" with infinite resources exists.>97% of the population has powers. Using your powers in public is illegal. Using your powers in any sort of business capacity is illegal.>UNLESS you went to hero school and got a hero license. You don't even have to do hero shit with it, you could have just done it to get the license so you can use your powers as a pop idol or run a laundromat chain or whatever.Their society is corrupt and retarded in very obvious ways, and this is even acknowledged later on by an antagonist group. You can sort of see the in universe justifications if you squint, of a society clinging to the old status quo at all costs despite the fact the the world has clearly changed, but still. Actually reading it you can tell that it was never meant to make sense and is just there to justify the action scenes.

There, I fixed the crime mechanic
>>92831711Ah, my bad. If a creature with a marriage counter on it isn't Human, it's also a Succubus. From a tribal perspetive MGE is a god damn nightmare because of 250 entires, about 20 of them aren't succubus. Or rather, aren't succubus by default, but obviously that Angel is going to get corrupted sooner or later because that's how the setting works. So rather than trying to balance around every Black, Blue, Green, and Red creature - and a small portion of White - all sharing a creature type, I decided to just drop that entirely from 90% of them and then give black a fairly easy way to make them into Succubus. Which is marriage counters. So Goblin is just a Goblin, unless it has a marriage counter at which point it's a Succubus Goblin.Corrupt is kinda-sorta a counter mechanic which basically boils down to 'it's a succubus anyways' and largely exists for me to mark a creature as male or female.
>>92832048There's a "ring tempts you" joke in here somewhere.
>>92832137There’s probably quite a bit of tempting going on, yes.
dark sun thread?
>>92804114Just the fact that they already mechanically removed "half races" from the rules makes half the context in the setting "problematic" in many aspects. Then they have to retcon and re-explain halfings and all the genocides and then it is not Dark Sun anymore so why bother. Just use the older material available, there is plenty of it, nobody needs a 5e Dark Sun, any half competent GM can easily adapt what is available if their only option is playing with a group too lazy or stupid to move away from only published 5e material.
>>92828755So what are WoTC are saying is that Metis don't exist?
>>92827412> I played strictly FRRight that's the problem-- Dark Sun is a far more empowering setting than the Realms, the world sucks but the status quo is incredibly simple to change because you can just go beat the tyrants up, rather than being slaves to the metaplot characters.
>>92778069>phrased as a question about "canon" rather than a scheme you want to doI see you don't play games.
>>92827412It goes back to that kennedy speech, or for more recent examples, souls games. Do things not because they're easy, but because they're hard.The grandfathers of fantasy, Edward Rice Burrows, Robert Howard and Tolkien to a degree had worlds where shit was brutal and mostly fucked, the only way out of it was for tough men with a strong morality they kept to confront evil, even if it was stronger than them. Shit's not completley fucked, just mostly fucked and hard to recover from. There's a hard limit on magic, you're using the life force others rely on, they couldn't recover if you take too much, hensence psionics, elemental clerics and physical skill, strength cultivated by ones self is needed. The evils of the world are not invulnerable, even the dragon kings have obsidian spheres inside themselves to keep themselves to properly use magic that are oddly vulnerable. There are plenty of dead cities where dragon kings died along with the worst of their nobles, and enough hidden springs, aquifers and mud fields offer the resources to begin restoring the life energy to the world if a clever preserver tries. But it's a real endevor, all the more satisfying if you suceed.
