Once he stops struggling, carefully remove the babies.

I ran a game for a group of 4. It was reasonably fun. It is one of those games though, like Mutants and Masterminds, where you have to work with the players while creating characters to keep things from getting broken.
Most important advice is "know your players". If they're the type that like super-animu-style stuff, they'll probably get a kick out of this. Otherwise, probably not their thing.

>>52846871
Sweet! Yeah, they're all weebs so I figured they might like this. How's the mechanics during play? Is it a solid system when put into practice?

>>52846871
So what are the differences supposed to be between the standard "Core" rules and the "Advanced" rules?

Bump for interest.

>The Eyesore

The Eyesore is a demented abomination that stalks it's prey silently, ever watching. Victims of the Eyesore feel an odd chill throughout their body, the first signs of infection. As the infection spreads, the victim becomes increasingly paranoid and frightened, their mind playing tricks on them as reality starts to seep away. The victims mental faculties begin to break down overtime, as the mental pressure exerted by the Eyesore begins to weigh in on them. Once signs of infection have begun to surface, it becomes completely impossible to free the unlucky individual from their torment. Weapons, be they enchanted or blessed shatter upon contact, potions have no effect whatsoever, spells fizzle away at a distance before even reaching them, or if the caster is close enough to them stop working at all, the same goes for all other magic. Protective wards shatter like glass and burn away once cast, defensive shielding lasts for about a minute or so before fading away. Not even the power of the Divine has any true effect. Victims might feel at comfort for a few seconds, before the agony of their existence being overwritten returns a thousandfold. not even death is an end to this torment, as victims will find themselves fully resuscitated within 24 hours, from which they awaken in apparent fright or distress, describing"something" assailing them whilst they were dead. During the final stages of the infection, the victims body will be completely still for at least 10 hours, before they begin flailing and wailing, and screaming in dead tongues, begging fr it to stop. All this happens for about 2 minutes before the body completely stills, and the skin starts to whiten and crust over within a few seconds. Should the body not be destroyed with holy flame during this short moment of vulnerability the victims body will transform into another vessel of the Eyesore's dark will, a new part of the Eyesore gestalt collective, that will continue the cycle.

Posted this over in the 'Weird New Monsters' thread, so I decided to post it here, since it fits in enough. Also, forgot pic.

I think adventurer companies/guilds are a lot less glamorous than you think. Mostly they get paid to plunder ancient ruins. They could be sacred sites or somesuch, right? Dirty jobs. But not even in like, a cool way. Just kind of sleazy contract-chasers without a lot of scruples.

The Hunter's Assocation from HunterxHunter is a good example. It has it's hands in many markets both legal and illegal. It works on various national levels promising to keep super powered hobos in check and offer them a way to make money that doesnt involve steam rolling countries and if shit goes bad they can be called upon to deal with it (i.e the Chimera Ant infestation).

The initiation into the HA is brutal by itself with killing being met with an mere inconvient consequence of having to wait till next year to participate unless killing your opponent is part of the test so they weed out the week and push their ideology on the strong to at least get them on their page and if they don't comply they kill them.

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be bait or not, but I will offer the following

1. Being "mercenaries" takes on a different role in a fantasy world where good and evil are physical, measurable parts of the universe and your opponents are objectively evil.

2. The service of a hired adventurer is to give solutions to problems, which can be by violent or nonviolent means depending on the players. I'd argue that the main trait giving adventurers a common bond are competence at something (including fighting) and willingness to put themselves at risk.

shut up and post more murdelli

Glad it is still moving, but neither do I keep track of production companies nor have I seen one of the referenced series. So I have no Idea what quality to expect.

>>52802528
I'd pay to see how Lizard-Riding Men with half-shaven heads mowing down a group of female casters. But the adaptation will probably be about that boring boy band.

Since there's likely to be plenty of cults, I feel like Cult of the Feast could use a new name. Followers of the Feast perhaps? Still a cult, just with a slightly different name.

>>52793104
Thanks for all the hard work anon, we really appreciate it.

Also, as a secondary priority, we should have a roll on putting some or all of the mechanics and/or setting under OGL so other people can pick it up down the road. Maybe we'll get lucky and some big publisher will have to put "4chan" in the OGL declaration for their book. :D

The CYOA's Patron Module, for choosing just who your mysterious benefactor is. Of course, not all of them have your best interests in mind...

...in fact, most of them probably don't care too much about you at all.

AMGC version 1.14. This is a derivative of the CYOA with combat rules based on Exalted. There's no easy conversion between the two, so keep that in mind.

Additional info, links, modules, and so on can be found on the IRC linkboard:

Or just drop into IRC for a quick Q&A.

File: SCS.pdf (1MB, 1x1px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 1x1px

The SCS was made as an addon to the CYOA to cover the combat side of roleplaying. It allows players to easily take characters made in the CYOA v1.5 and use them in Quests and long-running campaigns alike. Note that this system DOES require you to have a character made in the CYOA in the OP first.

This PDF covers the core rules of gameplay, as well as the methods of improvement and various spells and items magical girls use.

>Expansions to the SCS can be found in this link

These expansions include
>Order & Chaos; Friend & Foe (OC&FF): Details on the mechanical workings of Patrons, Dark Magical Girls, Monster Girls (both natural and corrupted), and also includes a bestiary
>Worlds & Wishes (W&W): Details various GM tools and a few player tools, including the function of Mundane weapons, Alternate/Optional Rules, Various tips and tricks for GMing and Roleplaying, as well as Augments for players looking for a little extra power after CharGen. It also includes the conversion process for AMGC characters into the SCS.

>tfw you forget the /anrg/ bit and have to repost the thread

The MWL article has some art we've not seen before - dragging it to a new tab gives it the name Demara, which gives us what's likely (but not 100%, seeing as it looks weird) our 3rd Conman breaker - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Waldo_Demara , the man known as 'The Great Impostor' - to join Lustig and Abagnale (I was thinking we'd get Ponzi, but there you go)

Eh, you had to drag the art into a new tab to make it give up the name

What it does mean is that we now only have 3 runner cards left unknown, at least in terms of name - one of which is pic related, (someone suggested as a Sneakdoor)

If it wasn't the first land played this turn, they do 2 damage to you.
