Are there any interspecies couples in your setting, /tg/? How are they treated by other people and society at large? Are they outcasts or accepted by others? Is there any discrimination against interspecies couples?

Shit, I have more interspecies couples in my setting than single species couples.

>Are they outcasts or accepted by others? Is there any discrimination against interspecies couples?
Depends on the location. Some kingdoms wouldn't bat an eye at it, while others would consider it an affront to nature. One of my major NPCs is a Kitsune Ninja who came back from the dead to take revenge on an overzealous, war hungry general who killed her and her Human Paladin husband.

Orcs have kind of really bad feelings about half-orcs. They didn't have their own proper country for a long time and their tribes were continuously beaten by humans and orcs were taken as slaves. A certain human empire based a good chunk of it building projects and hard labour on orc slaves.

Orcs finally got their shit together and crippled a lot of their neighbours in the process but even more than a hundred years later they still have really bad feelings about half-orcs.

The funny part is the first king, the one who really did bring the orc kingdom together and murderstomped anyone who tried to oppose him, was half-orc.

How would a realistic space battle look like?

Would it be boring for players?
353 posts and 39 images submitted.

>>52724035
A realistic setting almost certianly has no FTL and therefore the odds of a space battle happening to begin with are almost nil.

>>52724065

>>52724035
Most would probably take place in orbit.

It's easy to assume "realistic" space battles would work kind of like submarine warfare with ships millions of kilometers away from each other firing torpedos. A missile swinging wide of your ship by ten thousand km is an insanely close call.

Thing is this is a grossly inefficient way of waging a war. A missile or torpedo going that far a distance is going to be massively expensive, and it's almost a guaranteed miss anyway because at four million kilometers away that target has plenty of time to react.

Actual space battles would probably happen in orbit with ships and stations firing mass driver slugs and guided missiles at each other. Now it's only a few hundred kilometers instead of a few million. This also makes low orbit a strategically critical area because if you secure it you now have a staging ground for sending down troops, supplies, or just outright killing the planet if you feel like it.

Depending on game system, their ability to guide others through rough terrain and forage will seriously reduce the amount of discomfort the PCs have to deal with in unfamiliar territory.

The spells might help relieve the burden from other casters. I found in 5e D&D, the ranger being able to cast healing word really helped out in tough fights. You only need a single HP to fight, after all.

They might have unique traits no one else can bring to the table, i.e., 5e ranger's multiattack defense. Great for higher CR monsters, who often have bonus effects for hitting multiple times.

So, someone once mentioned that a bunch of Infernal refugees fled the official forums to another forum called Sufficient Velocity, after Holdorke began aggressively shitting blood all over the game line.

Can someone expand upon what's going on in that community? Are they largely 2e holdouts? Do they have a working 3e Infernal fansplat made? There was something about TAW Lunars - how's that going? Etc.

Because they were bought by Asmodee that caused some sort of licensing conflict.

So I'm looking to maybe run a Cthulhu-esque game, albeit with a twist - you can actually fight back against (some of) the critters without automatically pooping your pants, crying, and going insane. The tone I'm roughly shooting for is pulp like Indiana Jones or The Mummy, with a time period in the years between World Wars I and II. I was wondering what sort of system would be well suited to pulpy but still dangerous afventures, without requiring a fuck ton of kit bashing to make it work for me. I would also appreciate any 'period' sources for the cited time period, to help get a more authentic feel.

Lovecraft already did it too, in a lot of his stories.

People in Lovecraft's work can and do beat up both sorcerers and otherworldly monsters, up to and including great old ones. Afterward they usually just try to go back to their lives because, like reasonable people, they don't want to deal with spookies anymore. Also they usually don't want to be the guy trying to convince a police officer that spooky space tentacles are what created the murder scene, rather than the protag being a crazy person.

The only real world-change OP is suggesting (setting aside from the tone change) seems to be the disposition of the protagonists.

> The Uiderit Sangui are a Human culture that live in the Viridi Peninsula, and the lands and islands surrounding it. They depend on the peninsula’s plentiful rivers to travel and trade, and though a few groups are nomadic, by and large they practice slash-and-burn agriculture, supported by net extensive net fishing. The Uiderit Sangui share a polytheistic belief system called the Verun faith that draws many parallels with earthly hinduism. Religion, and by extension religious myths and festivals, are extremely important to them.
> Uiderit Sanguian society is based around hundreds of independent city states and petty kingdoms made up of a handful of city states, which, due to the five alliances, are in a delicate balance against one another. As a rule, the Uiderit Sangui are humble but proud of their heritage and the feats of their ancestors, tolerant of other races, cultures, and religions as long as their own traditions are left intact, and superstitious to a fault.

I know I am.

I have a sharp intellect, but the emotional volatility of a child. I can be stoic in times of hardship, but during times of peace I am a troublemaker. But mostly, I am just very condescending towards intellectual,social, and emotional immaturity, despite having all of those traits myself in low doses.

I may sound like I can string two sentances together, but I have days at a time of not being able to do anything but spend 12 hours a day on the computer.

Despite this I'm still healthy, mobile, i can engage in most excercise so long as its not a prolonged activity. (30 minutes of cardio is about my limit)

What do you do with all us pitiful half men? Is there no "council of wisdom" you can shuffle us off to? I'm too young for a home, too spy to just let out on the street and let die...

We've all been there before. You need to know where the goblin lair is, and you're holding a knife to a tightly-bound goblin scout's throat. "Tell us where the rest of your tribe is hiding!" you shout, only to have the goblin spit in your face. "I hate to do this," says the player, "but we need to kill him as an example to his friend. We have to find that tribe before they launch their attack."
"Okay," says the DM, "roll to hit."
"Excuse me?" you respond with bewilderment. "I'm holding a knife to his throat. I just... stab."
"Yes," says the DM, "but you can still roll a natural 1."
Shaking your head, you roll your trusty d20. Lo and behold, it is not a natural 1. Fan-fucking-tastic.
"Great," says the DM, "now roll damage."
"Ex-fucking-cuse me?" you almost shout. "I'm holding a knife to his carotid artery. That's, like, the most lethal place to stab someone."
"Fair enough," says the DM, "it's an automatic crit."
You are at a loss for words. Since this is not your first time around the block, you know even a critical hit won't do more than 14 damage, and these goblins have class levels. There's no way that'll kill the goblin. But you don't argue with the DM, so you roll the damn 2d4+6.
"Okay, I rolled a 12."
"Great," says the DM, "you stab the goblin in the neck. It is still, uh, alive, I guess. Maybe you missed the artery. You know, maybe you should have let the rogue do it - he would have gotten an automatic sneak attack."
You strongly consider demonstrating to the DM what happens when you apply a knife to someone's throat.

Situations like this, of stupid GMs not understanding the necessary abstraction in damage systems, are the fucking worst. Thankfully I've never personally experienced it, but I know some people who have.

Pretty much this. Outside of quests and some other things like risk or Dawn of Worlds, it's just not a good format for it, and IMO those things are better off on other boards anyway. I come to /tg/ for discussion, not clutter.
