Will Cat Snake see action in Modern?

Also here's a good piece of thinning.

I seriously thought about it and
no, you can't do that

But if speaking pure mechanics, Grapple to hold down, repeat a few times, dex to get it in, intimidate to make resisting stop

>>52453751

No rolls needed because you aren't in the game anymore. You're out of the group, now get out of my house.

>not letting your players act in character
I shiggy diggy.

Lore found in an unholy bible which chronicles the eldritch overlords rise to power. It could be found in the possession of the cosmic horrors human worshippers.

The apocalypse came about due to the decline in worship towards benevolent gods. The need for miracles died out with the social and technological advancement of mankind, leading to the old gods becoming nothing more than archaic myths in common regard. The lack of worship towards the gods lead to their decline in power, allowing the horrors influence to spread into the hearts and minds of man.
The horror could be used as a metaphor for the bleak reality that we face when the pretence of our hopes and beliefs are stripped away.

Yay, second thread. Though it would be better if you would include link to previous one.
Also, will post my previous text here too. Isnt much connected to horror or may not soun appropriate but still:
Autism a day keeps sanity away:
So, I've been imagining a scenario after apocalypse, where material world ended and Humans finally Ascended , took their rightful place as images of God almighty himself. And since one of the aspects of Godhood is creation and creativity, every Human created his own plain of existence according to their condition of souls. But then, certain Ascended ones decided to recreate mortal world and incorporate every imagination human history had within that world: from novels to games, from simple thoughts to series, every world human mind has created before ascension would be gathered in this single realm. While large portion of Ascended remain neutral, certain group thought that this would be an abomination, recreation of mortal world. Yet, first group created this world, and became known as Genitores (latin:ancestors, creators I'm sure its butchered). While world was formed, Second group grow disgust and hatred towards new world, and with them, their plains of existence changed with them. Finally, full of pride and wrath, they waged war against Genitors in order to destroy new world. Of course, since Ascended are immortal, no one could win this war at the end, yet rift happened. Those, who waged wars against them became Adversarii (latin: Enemies). And since then, Ascended are waging eternal war over New world.
I know, its HFY with Aedric and Daedric roles are taken over by humans, but still, just wanted to share it...

I hope you realize that atheism in settings with explicit deity-like beings is retarded, OP.

>>52453655
Wrong. In any setting with wizards, for example, there's literally no rational reason to believe the "gods" are anything more than sufficiently powerful wizards.

>>52453722
Wrong. In any setting where a wizard has reached immortality and pseudo-omnipotence it has become a god in everything but name or a straight up god.

As a GM, I make sure that anyone playing an Evil character has some reason to be loyal to the party, or at lest a reason not to turn traitor and sell them out.

I've never actually played an Evil character myself... might be interested in giving it a try next time I actually am a player, and not a foreverGM.

Self-interest.

>>52452537
I play CE character and I think something isn't right. My character want to be a pirate and other two players just going with me couse one want to collect some rare swords, and the other is his brother. They act more like minions then other players....I dont know what to do to not steal whole spotlight

I say, therefore, that the arms with which a prince defends his state are either his own, or they are adventurers, mercenaries, or mixed. Mercenaries and adventurers are useless and dangerous; and if one holds his state based on these arms, he will stand neither firm nor safe; for they are disunited, ambitious and without discipline, unfaithful, valiant before friends, cowardly before enemies; they have neither the fear of the gods nor fidelity to men, and destruction is deferred only so long as the attack is; for in peace one is robbed by them, and in war by the enemy. The fact is, they have no other attraction or reason for keeping the field than a trifle of stipend, which is not sufficient to make them willing to die for you. They are ready enough to be your soldiers whilst you do not make war, but if war comes they take themselves off or run from the foe; which I should have little trouble to prove, for the ruin of the kingdom has been caused by nothing else than by resting all her hopes for many years on mercenaries, and although they formerly made some display and appeared valiant amongst themselves, yet when the foreigners came they showed what they were.

>>52452277
I have always looked at adventurers as individuals who are dissatisfied with their lives but are unable to better themselves either due to societal constraints or their own ineptitude. Therefore they leave their former lives dreaming of greater success through unconventional means.

>Could humanity find a way to survive this scenario without the warming light of the Sun?

No.

>Could some part of humanity survive on the warmth, energy, and light of other fuels, maybe in massive underground warrens?

No.

>How long till all traditional fossil fuels run out?

They wouldn't. We'd all die before then.

>Could we even manage to survive long enough to acquire them?

No.

>What if we had a decade of forewarning?

No.

>A century?

No. We can't even get our heads around fixing pollution issues.

>What types of planets or animals would we try to save to sustain ourselves?

None.

>Could we obtain some sort of extremophile bacteria which derives its energy from sources other than the sun, and modify it in some way to make it edible or useful?

No.

>What would the effects be?

We'd all freeze to death, everything would die off, and what little remains would suffocate.

>How extreme would the cold (maybe better to think of it as a lack of any heat)

Very extreme.

>How long till the oceans freeze all the way through?

Millions of years. Tectonic activity would still occur.

>Would the force of the freeze crack the Crust all the way to the Mantle?

No.

>What other extreme physical effects would happen?

Depends if the Earth keeps spinning.

>Would all weather on the planet end without a sun to cause disparate seasons of warmth and cooling?

Eventually, yes.

That's all you're gonna get on this bullshit.

>Buying models with terrible rules because you love the lore and look of them

Why do I do this to myself. Saggitarum Guard are awful and I love them.

>>52450803
That's why I'm replacing the disintegration muzzle with a big bayonet and running them as Custodian Guard.

>>52450803
>Saggitarum Guard are awful

Eh they're not THAT bad, they are just bad compared to the rest of the army. Use a Tribune and Infiltrate them close to whatever you want to nuke.

There might be one, but it only appears after looping the Nep anime ED a few hundred times.

Where's legend of the galactic heroes? That's at minimum high tier.

As for space opera, politics, strong and well thought out characters facing ethical and political choices that put both their characters strengths and flaws into focus in an entertaining and interesting way. Now I know that sounds like a typical earth based drama, but you have to make sure you do it IN SPACE. Really, the only thing that differentiates a space opera from it's more contemporary counterpart of Greek epic is that it takes place in the space future, and thus has a more technological feel than a mythological one.

>>52450495
Aliens that some how conform to human standards of beauty and are despite all odds are sexually compatible with Homo sapiens. Bonus points if it's only the female aliens that are attractive, or if it's a female only race.

>>52450495
They are literally soap operas in space. That's where the name comes from. It's a melodramatic situation narrated in a setting of technological wonders, more often than not with the presence of extraterrestrial species. They are stories in which the intense emotions of the melodrama are juxtaposed with the"age of reason" that one might expect from such a setting. That's what differentiates it from, say, science fantasy like Star Wars in which the feelings of the characters, although important to understand their motivations, are a tier below the grandeur of the epic Hero's Journey.

You could have just googled symptoms of dementia.

>>52449447
but what about fantasy-murderhobo dementia?

>just as casting magic affects the natural world around them, so does it affect the minds of those who cast it. Although symptoms remain dormant for years at a time, and may never present themselves, anomalies develop in the brain of the caster with potentially dire changes to his personality. Throbbing headaches continue if he fails to cast any spells for a continued period. His mood becomes hostile and angry towards even his friends. If left unchecked for too long it takes over his physical form to lose his personality as well as any semblance of his old form. These beings, although rare, are often mistaken for ghosts, but are far more dangerous as they maintain their ability to cast any spells they knew in life and have nothing but an insatiable desire to cast them

A desert is just someplace that gets less than a certain amount of rainfall, so parts of Antarctica are deserts.
