In Out of the Abyss where the party has to care about my shit or get lost and die

>Grow up as a slave, owned by the gladiator arena of the city-state of Tharnissa.
>Never know who my parents are, I just know I was born there.
>Closest thing to a father I have is an old gladiator dragonborn, who teaches me to be strong if I am to survive this harsh life and also taught me draconic.
>Train since young with all weapons and armors I can, to be sure I will make it to adulthood.
>One day the dragonborn who was teaching me died in the arena. Guess I have to take care of my own.
>Kill my first man at age 13, in a tough, dirty fight. When he was down, I finished him with my fire breath, which I guess the public loved because they were shouting and screaming loudly. The host then called me the "Lord of Fire! Firelord!!!"
>Managed to kill a bear in the arena at age 15.
>By age 18 I have become really good at being a gladiator, and have won enough gold to purchase my own freedom. But I have never known another life, and have become adicted to the crowd cheering my name; so I keep on being a gladiator. Hell, the pay was good.
>A year later I finally buy my own freedom, and start visiting the city, and started living in an Inn called "The Brawling Troll". The innkeeper was a nice young lady who inherited the establishment. We became friends and slowly became close.
>At some point I realize that there is more to the world than killing people for money, and the bards were always singing about mighty deeds in a mighty world, so I decided it was time for me to start making my own path.
>On a notice board I see that the Duke of Therinburg from the second Berinthian Empire who is looking for "adventurers looking for work. Good pay", so I start making my way.
>I purchase a proper chainmail, a greatsword and some axes before leaving.
>After some time travelling to Therinburg I lodge at an Inn in a small vilage on the way. In there I meet a Halfling with mutton chops, a Dwarf Bard and a naked gnome.

"on a nat 1, you forget your action and immediately do a different, retarded thing" isn't a mechanics fuck up, it's a storytelling and narration fuck up. (unless you consider adjudication a mechanic...)

anyway, the first game i GMed was a single session of "everyone is john". i kept wondering about my players' abysmal success rate and how long the game was taking. it took me an entire hour and half to remember the fucking "pay willpower to improve a roll" mechanic.

>>53246105
These are fuck ups, but not mechanical ones.

>Oldhammer thread

I can respect this.

>Minimum requirement of 30+ years in the hobby

Well that'll be why I'm the first post then.

>>53245210
>What got you started?
DSA/TDE, mid 80s. Played most big systems, but from the 90s on Shadowrun was big for me. Later the 40k RPGs.

>And what kept you going?
I am a daydreamer and this allows me to express myself.

>So how do you feel about the evolution of the hobby?
I like the pure creativity of modern, narrative or rules-light games as a source of inspiration but they are not my cup of tea otherwise. I hate the politization of the hobby but it seeping into mainstream would be good for the mainstream. The art has become more colorful but often also more childish and/or soulless.

Overall, it's just fine though.

OP here, thank grud. I thought this was going o be the loneliest thread on /tg/.

Are you guys active in your communities? I've led a pretty mobile life, but I've tried to both spread the gospel and support new players wherever I go.

>>53244563
If there's literally no better option, I guess. The problem is that there's almost always going to be a better option, or at least one that won't lead to them falling.

something something powder keg of justice

>>53244563
>Defeat evil
>By falling
It isn't really defeating evil then is it?

Tzimisce anti-tribu, who's agreed to stop making horrible monstrosities in exchange for the safety the camarilla offers. But he misses the art. He's a plastic surgeon without a license but beautiful results, and he accepts credit and advertises by word of mouth. But if you miss a payment... he hauls you back in, and leaves something awful on you. Something small, somewhere easy to cover. But it's something for him. A little bit of the art back. He's treading a line, and soon enough, he'll learn whether he can give up his sculpting for safety, or whether he will eventually lose himself to the needs of the craft.

Boy scout, just before eagle, total freakin' loser who just got killed by a serial killer and had to come to terms with the fact the only thing there could have been to say about him, when he died, is that he got pretty close to getting his eagle badge, and almost nothing else. As a Geist now, he's trying to figure out whether that's really a life goal he wants anymore, and if not, what to do with himself now. Plays as a skillmonkey.

Samurai. Second son of a feudal lord, essentially groomed just to take care of military matters for when his brother becomes daimyo. Joined a band of warriors dedicated to killing a powerful demon king who was steamrolling a bunch of other clans and making a beeline for the capital. Got his ass handed to him and returned home to find everything destroyed, his father dead, his brother missing, and the land taken over by a rival clan that wants his head. Has since left his home country of the setting's Not!Japan to find his brother, find out what happened, and hopefully make some friends who want to kick some demon ass along the way. Plays a bit like a hero in a Kurosawa film.

I plan on getting back into 40k once 8th drops (haven't played since 5th) what's different? I plan on starting s new army as well

Has anyone got some assets they used to make homebrew codexes handy? Like the boarders/fonts/backgrounds. Imperial style if possible, Inquisition/Sororitas specifically.

Simpler rules for shooting and saves mostly designed to streamline gameplay

Alright, I'll give it a shot.

>Str:High
She's throwing around swords and is a robot.
>Dex:Somehow Higher
She's doing all that in HIGH HEELS.
>Con:Average
For the setting; she's not really amazingly durable compared to others around.
>Int:Average
That's what she's got 9S for.
>Wis:Low
Partially forced due to YorHa doctrine.
>Cha:YES
I'm sorry, my counter just went into an overflow error. Now it's done it again. Crap, it just hit a third overflow, how high is that CHA?

It's the ass, isn't it?

She is just too hot. It resonates with some primal instincts in every male soul.

>>53243403
In feudalism you don't own money unless you are royalty so prostitution didn't exist.

/thread

Christianity or not, it's still a medieval setting, so personal hygiene becomes srs fckn bsns, and the churches/temples have a near monopoly on healing magic. Prostitutes would therefore tend to fall in to a few categories:
>priestesses of a sex goddess
>filthy gutter skanks
>adventuresses trying to seduce money, loot, or intel out of the PCs
>hungry succubae

>>53243435

Generally people just make le funny kung-fu movie references and have their character get drunk since "that's how he fights the best XD!".

The only time I played monk in 5e it was a lawful evil halfing. He wanted to become the most lethal being in the world, worshipped dragons, and had an inferiority complex a mile wide. Good fun in an all evil campaign.

He's not wrong.

>>53239550
Play it straight.

>>53239550

The lamp needs to be filled with wishes first, by consuming them.

>>53239550
Put a demon in the lamp.
Make the lamp reveal some bullshit when you burn it.
Make the lamp cursed: when you get it your luck goes to shit, and even when you try to get rid of it you'll keep running into it.

Alternatively, dont play a setting where "wish" tier spells are canon.
