Pathfinder General /pfg/

When Starfinder's prerelease book comes out soon, should /pfg/ split into /pfg/ and /sfg/ or stick together as one general? What do you guys think?

It was already discussed on a few threads. While some would prefer seperate threads, the majority would prefer them to stand under the pathfinder general. Mostly because otherwise the community would be too spread out, and end up with two dead generals. Along with them being related enough that they are essentially the same game anyways.

In the future of space, it would be super easy to genetically engineer everyone to live forever, or at least for many centuries. Why would this not happen? There's enough space when you have multiple planets.

Resources, genetic purists, associated costs, etc. We live in an age where diseases that used to ravage entire generations are cured with an injection as a kid and people still protest them, and life-saving pills are kept locked behind pay barriers designed specifically to exploit those very people. It's not hard to imagine that all of these scenarios would still happen in a thousand years.

Expensive. Probably prices are held high artificially.

You're not going to nearly expand territory to meet pace with population growth, regardless of how many useful planets there are. But still, advanced medicine will certainly enable living arbitrarily long, and enforcing early mortality isn't going to stand easily or for long. The real solution is to stem reproduction, which is easier than it sounds since eventually all immortal women will run out of ova. The balance will tip from needing to enforce sterilization to only having more children through special effort.

The game is "Move and throw dice against the same mooks for 2 hours before being allowed to equip good gear and throwing dice against the boss for 1 more hour."
And the minis are made of toy soldier plastic.

So I got this idea while playing Fallen Enchantress where normally when a hero gets defeated they get this semi-permanent penalty to some stat, like permanently lowered hp, damage, or -50% resistance to cold damage, or something like that. One of them was really interesting through, "hallucinations," which gives -10% spell resistance but also +10 spell mastery. So it was a bonus and a curse at the same time.

I'm about to run a game basically set in the underdark and I'd like to implement a system like this where the PCs gain traumas, which can reduce one stat but also refine the character as a result. Any ideas on what these could be or how to specifically implement this?

Not sure what to do man, but I support you. Maybe base them off of positive and negative qualities of other systems like Shadowrun.
>>
Is this a "Do an action, consequence happens" ideas thread?

Darkest Dungeon has something like this, except they implemented it terribly. Still interesting though, usually it comes in the form of some buff/nerf with some flavour text explanation which can be used for roleplaying purposes.

Friends and I are gonna try the Mistborn Adventure Game for a campaign, and I want to figure out some neat ways to utilise the abilities of a Gold Misting. How can I use the ability to look at potential past selves to do some neat things?

>When burning Gold, a character experiences the emotions, thoughts, and feelings of a different and earlier self, as would have
been if he or she had made different choices.
Though the character’s feelings and thoughts while burning Gold are real, the images seen are illusions, possibilities swimming through the mind as divergent paths are explored.
>While burning Gold, your perception splits. You remain aware of your
true, present self and your life as it is now, but you also gain the memories and
knowledge of pasts you might have lived. This is, in effect, a chance to do things
differently, though only in a very convincing fantasy.
>When looking into the past, time elapses as in reality — you experience
one minute of an alternate past for every minute you burn Gold in the present.
There’s no limit to how far back you can diverge from your established history,
and alternate pasts appear to you with crystal clarity.

In the books, it tends to be depicted that someone burning Gold is simultaneously two versions of themselves, as it is noted that one character can sense the hatred the other version of himself feels for him, and the alternate version is someone that the burner can interact with and seemingly touch, but it doesn't seem like anyone else can see or interact with it.

GM has said that since Gold burning is so useless he may let me be Twinborn and have a Ferring power as well, as long as it's a more useless one with narrow applications, but I just really want to find either a powerful narrative/character reason for my Gold burner, or some neat tricks he could pull.

Wouldn't that mean they effectively have perfect memories? Scholarship, scouting and spying spring to mind
>>
>>53073087
The description from the MAG sourcebook definitely mentions memories, but it's not clear just how strong those memories are. I imagine that these memories are maybe not perfect, since there's another skill, using Copper, that essentially stores memories for retrieval like a database. I can't imagine GM would allow something that is just outright better for memories than the ability specifically devoted to memory storage and retrieval.

Bump for any other ideas on how to make this an interesting ability to have? Narratively at least, if not mechanically?

What made you walk out on a campaign?

I'd pulled this one homebrew before, this being the second "storyline" for this party. I'd asked them repeatedly what kind of a game they wanted and got no answets at all so I made one in the same style as the previous one: a drama/suspense murder mystery kind of thing. They'd liked that before.

Poured a ton of research into making it as realistic and accurate as I could.

First session, everything goes fine, the party grabs the plot hook and runs with it, everything goes smoothly. Then one girl had to roll a new character.

She wanted to play a hamster.

A talking fucking hamster with a top hat and a monocle. In 21st century Berlin. Because she thought it was funny.

After that session just I went home and got drunk. I told everyone that the game is called off for good on the grounds that it was obvious that they didn't want to play anymore.

>>53072790
I won't have anyone shitting up my game on purpose for no reason. If you're bored with the game I run, you don't have to play.

Like, I would've been fine with it if there had been any kind of a story to it, like he's on a quest to figure out how to be turned back into a human or something, but no. She just made a stupid, shitty character on purpose.

Like, her first character was a chaotic evil midget cannibal who can't talk, and I thought I'd just be patient, this was her first time playing an RPG, she'll be ready for a serious, grownup character eventually.

But no. She has zero intention to ever stop being a fucking nightmare at the table.

Stat him, /tg/

>They proceed to draw on the deck like fucking crazy
>18 cards later the group now consists of two wealthy lords (one with a keep and one with a manor and vineyard), level balancing is all over the fucking place (literally ranging from level 3-10), one player is now the secret mortal enemy of the powerful Gnomish Wizard, and two are now the mortal enemies of Orcus himself
The only immediately shitty cards they drew were two skull cards, which summons an avatar of death which is a chump. And the two warlocks who sold their souls to gain their powers got the void, which sucks out your soul, but since they didnt have one anyways, literally nothing happens.

Never use the deck of many things. It ruins perfectly good DnD games

I need some help designing a boss in Dnd 2e.
Essentially he is mad king piloting a 15 foot tall mechanical armor and I don't really know how to make that work without making it too powerful.
11 posts and 1 images submitted.
>>
>>53072403
2e? Uh.. would help to know what level the party is. You could make it be an iron golem if they're fairly tough fellows, an iron golem that he's inside and can still cast spells/use wands from. The anti-magic of the golem protects him from magic, and the IRON of the golem protects him from attacks until it's destroyed.
At lower levels.. just an Enlarge spell would do the trick, though unless he's pretty tall already he'd hit like a truck. Perhaps just have him polymorphed into a giant or something? Or just fluff it however you like, it doesn't really matter. Just hit like an ogre until he's 'defeated', toppled over and pulled from the wreckage.
>>
>>53072494
Two level 5 characters (Generic warrior and a psyonic) and a level 6 fighter.
They are kind of in the middle ground of shitty and competant.
But they will be getting some npc help.
A golem would utterly annihilate them.
Polymorph and enlarge don't really fit the character since he is a warrior and not a wizard.
>>
>>53072721
Potions and charms exist my man! A PSION? Are you.. are you SERIOUS? In AD&D 2e? Good god.

There's weaker golems. Check out Lomion.de/cmm/_index.php, they've got almost every single monster ever released for AD&D 2e. You should find SOMETHING you can base it on. There's weaker golems from Mystara, for instance.

Your best bet is still going to just be having the guy be Enlarged, mechanically, so he hits like a truck but isn't otherwise tougher than he would be outside of the armor.
