Hey, guys. You know how skeletons in tabletop games are usually bad? But, have you ever thought about how us paladins can kind of be assholes as well?
I mean, most skeletons probably don't mean to harm anyone and are only defending themselves from intruders looking to steal their treasures.
How about we just let it go and maybe don't harm more skeletons? We can just leave them be, right?
>>55118465
Wow, fellow paladin. I never considered that point of view before. Maybe us paladins should pay reparations to the skeletons as a way to atone for our living privilege.
humans need food, water, warmth, space to live and shit in, company, protection from weather and animals thus they need to co-operate and build some kind of community and shelter which gives rise to (peaceful) civilization etc.
skeletons circumvent most of these. they don't need to care for other living things, no need to improve their surroundings, no need to fight for their children and wives, pay no heed to survival issues. NO SENSE OF RIGHT AND WRONG
>>55118465
I, too, would totally give my right femur to have paladins stop being so cruel to skelletons, my fellow palladin.Paladins have femurs, right? Just checking...for a friend.
What if the power tier of wod was
Demon
Changeling
Werewolf
Mummy
Vampire
Mage
Then the magefags would be Demonfags.

What's the shittiest thing you've ever done as a magic user?
>>55117669
Kinda edgy buuut....
Dm worked with us on backstories, since I felt like playing a tragic character we made me a war orphan, the guy who would be king was the guy leading troops that sacked my village.
Long story short we end up at a ball thrown for his 10 year old son, I webbed up the little bastard and fire balled him. Daddy got to watch his son bun to death before my wizard fucked off with dimension door and invis. Using fake papers and disguise self. The father is still alive and basically slaughtering magic users en masse because through a hat of disguise and fake papers the guy doesn't even know what I look like or really, anything about me besides the fact I can do magic shit.
>>55117669
Played an ice mage once (don't ask, this wasn't DnD) whose sister got abducted. Once we found the asshole that took her, the party basically chained him to a chair while my character froze his hand so solid the nerves died, then smashed one of the fingers with a hammer and made him watch it shatter... then another, and another, and another, until she was working her way up his arm.
The sad part is, we were a party of "good" characters to use crappy DnD terms, but this was so personal and so important to my character that the rest of the party kinda left the room and let her do her thing.

>you killed my father, so I'm gonna kill your son!
Does not compute. Why didn't you just kill the king's dad and call it even?
Aldous Orwellus was looking at a giant, clad in greenish armor, approaching slowly to him from the end of the corridor. Even at this distance, he seemed massive, filling a space that should be able to accommodate easily three people. He was walking slowly, every step booming in the metallic floor, the vibrations reaching his ribcage. The giant held a colossal weapon, similar to the stub guns that he had seen the PDF carry in parades, but two, three times bigger, and visibly more deadly.
As he approached, he took out the helmet with one hand. Red eyes in a charcoal face looked at him, examining, analysing. A mouth opened, and white teeth, predator teeth, could be seen contrasting against the black of his face. It looked like something out of a nightmare, an angel of retribution that arrived to his doorstep. Suddendly, he opened his bear-like hands.
“Hello, my friend! Aren’t you going to give a hug to your great-great-great-great uncle?”
This was going to be an interesting Sanguinala.
>>55117587
Cute!
It seemed a formal letter. Maybe the most formal letter that grazed that sub-spire in the last 400 years, since its foundation. It was made from proper paper, which in that word was a luxury, and had a red wax seal. The size of the letter looked odd, as it made for bigger hands.
That day, Aldous Orwellus was returning home after his normal 16-hour shift. He was a teacher in a nearby school, 60 levels down. He knew that half the juves there would end joining a gaing in the next 5 years, and that 1 every 4 would be dead in the next 10, but that didn’t deter him of trying to teach a little bit of the most basic stuff. The serfs of the God-Emperor should at least know how to read a damn data-slate.
He didn’t expect a ministrorum adept waiting for him home, as he didn’t expect the letter.
Once he opened it, his doubts weren’t still resolved. He had more than before, in fact.

“To the attention of Aldous Orwellus, descendant of Linus Orwellus, descendant of Freyer Orwellus, descendant of Janus Orwellus,
I am Captain Mathias Terruel, on board of the battle-barge “Fury of the Stars”, which stationed in your planet two cycles ago, and awaits reconditioning before our next warp jump.
It seems you are the last member alive of the Orwell family, and one of my passengers has asked permission to visit you. Strange as it is, it seems their brethren have a tradition of doing just that.
I would advise you to allow his request, as being a guest of one of the angels of the Emperor is probably the highest service you will do in your life, but he has repeatedly insisted that you should do it of your own volition as he “does not want to be a burden”.
I expect your answer by tomorro. My messenger will come pick it up.
Tought of the day: A questioning servant is more dangerous than an ignorant heretic.

I'm surprisingly okay with this, all things considered.
>>55117515
Firbolgs are good.
>>55117515
I preferred the ones from the old AD&D novels. The 5e ones look like you let tumblr colour an old british political cartoon about the irish.
>>55117515
The race itself is really fun to play.
My only real gripe is that instead of reworking firbolgs, these guys should have been a rework of Voadkyn who are already elf-like giants that can magically disguise themselves as humanoids...

Same exact mana economy and this card is a common.
It's a draft common for Limited. Meant to go 10th pick onwards. Think Garbage Fire.
How about a standard fantasy setting aesthetically based on native cultures of North America rather than Europe? Not historically, aesthetically. In fact, it's the stuff that's historically impossible (big cities, horses, wizards) that'd be most interesting to think about in those terms, I guess. Haida instead of vikings and all that.
American indian culture is pretty tame and boring though. The south american indians the mayan and azteks and shit had a much more interesting culture. North american indians were just tribal nomadic hunter gatherers mostly.
>>55117245
>says "natives"
>posts images of invaders who genocided the original mormon inhabitants of North America
2/10, probably a cuck.
>>55117245
Read some Native literature. Even the modern stuff is heavily spiritual and pretty interesting. Green Grass, Running Water has a pretty interesting take on time, and Ceremony literally turns white people into a curse unleashed by a story somebody told. Yellow Woman basically is about mantling in the TES sense.

What do you like about 5e?
>>55117343
It'spretty good.
>>55117343
It's the most narrative-focused of the various editions.
Things like classes and spell lists are pretty much always going to thicken the rulebook, but for all intents and purposes this is probably going to be the closest we get to official rules-lite D&D.
And you know what? It actually works.
They are from Gee Dubz, but anyone know when and where?

They're some kinda d6, I can tell from the sides and from seeing a few dice in my time.

Can Nurgle create mental illnesses or is it just physical illnesses?
I am just wondering due to some personal writefaggotry for my dudes in 40k. In that they have all gone rotten in the mind instead of the body.
>>55116839
Physical illnesses can cause mental illness
>>55116839
In Nurgle's case it would probably manifest physically, though it could also be a mind-affecting parasite, like Chaos-infused toxoplasmosis.
>>55116839
It's diseases, not illnesses.
Nurgle diseases usually infect with certain mentality. They are not physical diseases, they are spiritual and mental disease that once get a hold on a person will manifest the symptoms of a physical disease.
For example, The Zombie Plague (picture related). Then you have the Plague of Lies. A disease that infects anyone with a lie in their heart. And so on and so forth.
People with great faith and mental fortitude such as the Sisters of Battle are highly resistant to Nurgle's diseases.

why don't they just make a 1 mana white instant that exiles all cards from opponent's hand, graveyard, and library? it's obvious that's what they want to do. so just fucking do it.

I have to DM an Undertale DnD game. I've never played it and have no plans to.
Give me shitty quips and shit to use I dunno the people playing it are my brother's friends and the biggest resistors I've ever seen.
First session you should totally reference the bad end where the main character hangs himself from a bridge.
>>55115727
>I have to DM an Undertale DnD game.
No, you don't.
>>55115727
Don't be a GM if you don't really intend to run a game, you're just wasting everyone's time.
