didn't someone make a fandex on 1d4 or something? how was that?

Bring back 3e (4e?) biomorphs list (+1ws/bs/s/t/w/i/a upgrades any model can buy)
expand the non-stat biomorph list, and let more (all) models take them. who cares if its a guant, let it have an acid maw if it wants to!
condense the unit entries to 7 or so classes of beast, that, combined with the upgrades from above, can make the various unit entries we have now.
(for example, tyrant class of beast, has the classic hive tyrant or canifex stat line, access to all the various guns/weapons/wings/biomorphs, can gain synapse+psyker to become an HQ, etc.)

Ridiculously overpowered, unfortunately.

Depends on what you are doing with them.

In other words, depends on the setting.

Yes.

This is how I bait Argentinians.

Otherwise the dead start talking bad about the gods and then before you know it nobody's got any worshipers.

Cause their ghosts would just be wandering everywhere getting in the way of things

Well, either they have a soft spot for them or they get something from them.

If they have a soft spot, the fun part is figuring out why, and how humans find out, and how they build their culture around it, since it will be the most important thing they encounter probably.

If they get something, what is it?

One time. My friend noticed and called me out on it right away.

I felt like an asshole. I didn't even have a good reason to cheat. It wasn't like it was a life-or-death situation. I just felt like lying, got caught right away, and never felt the urge to do it again.

Yes, but not often. When i need a good roll on a d50 and get a number below 20 i add another 10 when it's time to do the math. My GM likes to kill characters and throw on us enemys that can one-shot the squishies 3 times with a single hit
I'm not ashamed, and probably other plays do the same

>>52414347
I've only cheated to fail when my rolls seemed too good to believe.

Only had one comrade die so far in the campaign i jumped on but i arranged a funeral pyre and got a priest to say some words for him at least. The player is a dick and his character was shit but i felt it was the right thing to do regardless.

The priest i got was one i preferred though and not one the comrade would have picked first but he's dead so he can't really complain now can he.

lol what a retarded character

I actually think that humans are spirits possessing the bodies of homo sapiens, which (with various degrees of success) fight us for control, but usually are so thoroughly dominated that we stop noticing them except when we're weakened by something. A homo sapien is probably less intelligent than a spirit but still sentient on the level of an advanced animal.

>Has anyone ever run a Hunter Hunted game before?

Yes, I regularly run 'em with a group of mine. S'pretty fun, though there's generally a lot less action stuff in Hunters Hunted games. Most "successful" hunts usually involve making sure the vampire does *not* get a chance to get combat-ready.

>What is with caitiff anyway? Why does not having a chat with your sire remove the effects of your inherited vitae? Like, why does a 10 minute conversation with a Gangrel site determine whether I have protean, fortitude and animalism, or vicissitude, necromancy, and thanatosis?

Ah, I think you're a bit confused...

See, there's two kinds of "Caitiff" in VtM.

The first refers to a vampire with little-to-no idea of who or what they are. Many gangrel start out as caitiff simply on account of the whole "abandon your childe and see how well they survive on their own" thing...

Then you got the other side of the coin: the ones who simply do not manifest their sire's clan curse or disciplines. These are often abandoned by their sires pretty quickly upon discovering that they have like zero vampiric stuff in common with their childe, but not always.

So, Person A could know, with 100% certainty that they are descended from Nosferatu, and others might even aknowledge it as well... but they would still be regarded as Caitiff on account of the fact that they lack their sire's disciplines and clan weakness.

It also means that Person B could have zero idea that they belong to a certain clan... but then it would simply mean that it's a case of ignorance, rather than a supernatural difference between sire and childe.

Most caitiff suffer from *both* of these drawbacks, in that not only don't they know their clan, they wouldn't fit in with their clan even if they *did* know.

TL,DR: Caitiff can refer to both the idea of being ignorant of your clan, or how you're a supernatural deviation from your sire's clan/bloodline. It can be confusing, at times.

I asked last thread, but got no responses, is there a good combat utility to Necromancy? Shambling hordes with path of bones doesn't get any better as you increase along that path, and it's the closest there seems to be to typical necromancy. Is there something better for the Von Carstein type vampire I'm going for?

Requesting the character on the right summoning a massive barrage of long ghostly arms. The arms appear just a few feet from her body, and fire off in every direction, slamming and smashing whatever they hit.

This spell is her panic button for when she gets surrounded or cornered, so her expression would likely be one that looks worried, surprised, or even scared.

The sigils and magic lines on her chest armor don't need to be in the picture, that's just what it looks like when she wards herself against attacks. Without that magic shell she's wearing a thick padded collared coat with a quilted pattern on it over her clothing as armor.

Thank you!

Putting this in the new thread

Requesting an image of a character I'll be playing soon. A gladiator/slave in the underdark

He's a tall (6ft) and scrawny drow, with wild and messy hair (white, of course) hanging down to his shoulders like a mess of thin and ratty swamp weeds. He has one eye, which is a hurt, pitiful light blue with heavy bags under it. His missing one is covered in a bloody, dirty rag. His face is marred by brutal looking scars that look like they were given to him by a brutal mauling of some kind of mauling, repeated whippings, or near fatal sword/ Axe blows ruining what good looks he would have if he didn't look starved and general beaten down and broken. In fact the tip on one of his pointed ears has simply been completely cut off.

His skin is a midnight blue sort of black.

He should look disheveled, tired and battle worn, but also have a determined look in his eyes, the look of a battle hungry/mad survivor, like he will kill or lick the boot of whoever he has to to survive to his next day.

He's wearing a revealing set of leather armor. His hands are covered with black fingerless gloves, he's wearing old sandals and black pants torn so they're short.

He's wielding a fine rapier that should have a general spider motif, and looks like it does not belong in his scarred hands, and a buckler decorated with an image of a spider who abdomen is replaced with a skull.


His stance should be at rest, buckler in hand and rapier on his shoulder and with a murderous determination in his one eye, almost like a mad dog.

Thanks a lot in advance if you draw this poor bastard. It'd mean the world for me if you do
