Does anyone remember the name of that rpg in development with the really disturbing looking creatures , and everyone was a zombie, it had creature taming stuff going on, and the main thing I remember is how genuinly unsettling the monsters were. I want to run a game with that.
Whatever that game is general too, I geuss.

How badly does the character you're currently playing (or the last character you played if you're not currently playing one) smell?

Remember, if you're playing in a pre-modern setting, chances are the population rarely bathed more than once a month, if that.

So why the whole "paladin falls" thing is a meme anyway? And let's distance ourselves from the whole deity for the purposes of this debate, because paladins are not champions and never were supposed to be.

Anyway, consider the following: the main two concepts of the paladin code are justice and mercy.
The thing is, you have to choose one or another, because mercy gives no justice to the victim, while justice gives no mercy to the perpetrator. I mean, it is conceptually impossible to enact justice AND mercy at the same time.
So, in essence, your average paladin has to choose which approach to apply on a case-by-case basis, in the end relying purely on his personal judgement. The orc baby dilemma, for example, is not a dilemma at all, because the answer to it is "depends on the circumstances".
I mean, falling because of a lapse in personal judgement? A dick move, but justified. Falling, because you didn't combine the two approaches that are conceptually impossible to combine? Utter fucking bullshit.
So why the fuck the whole "paladins have to be both just and merciful all the time, or otherwise they fall" is a meme?

I'm going to be running a Mouse Guard game for the first time. I have read the comics (they're fantastic) and am looking for ideas and art for the game. Has anyone ran it before? What are some good tips for running the game and setting up missions?

Hear ye, hear ye. I hereby call to order this meeting of the most illustrious Mages Guild! I would like to congratulate our four major Elementalist departments on their successful decennial competition. It was an amazing show of Geomancy, Pyromancy, Hydromancy, and Aeromancy. I think I speak for all of us when I say making a floating volcano rise out of the seas and into the air was a spectacular way of ending the event.

In other related news, we have gotten a lot of complaints recently about our bigger spells destroying the local landscape. Apparently, a stray explosion spell tore apart Mount Minos and collapsed one of the richer mines in the region. Now we get these complaints all the time but this time it's giving me a headache. As such we might have to limit the amount of large-scale spells we use outside of the guild, or find a way to isolate the guild from the protesting voices of all the local leaders. Now unless the feast that's been prepared for this meeting doesn't distract us then I'm sure we can think of something.

Welcome to the Mages' Guild. Pick a name and join in! Conflicts are resolved with d20s when needed, or with playing it out. When the thread dies on /tg/, we keep it going on archived.moe. For additional resources, please visit http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Mage%27s_guild or http://collabedit.com/6fvae

There is an item in our game, a simple stick with only one property to it: it completely negates any kind of effect, action or influence that tries to affect it, either directly or not. How would you design a spell to break this stick? Any kind of wording is applicable.
