It's extremely difficult for Space Marines, I can't comprehend how a baseline human would be able to impress the Chaos Gods enough.
Are there any fluff examples of baseline humans ascending or defeating Space Marines in single combat? How could a baseline human hope to ascend to Daemonhood if they can't even defeat a Space Marine in single combat?
Genghis Khan
Yes, there are plenty of examples of humans ascending.
In Rogue Trader for instance is details how a lazy (and i do mean lazy) imperial voidsman accidentally spread a virulent plague across an entire Imperial Navy fleet, and thas was awarded daemonhood by Nurgle.
There is also mention of a human sorcerers that corrupted the Word Bearers Chaplin (who would later go on to corrupt Lorgar), who also ascended into daemonhood with a grant ritual.
>>52112244
Well yeah, there's Doombreed, but he ascended before there were Space Marines to compete with, I don't know how a baseline human can hope to compete with literal paragons of humanity.
>>52112297
Huh, that's interesting. I suppose it depends on more than straight up combat prowess and psychic ability.
Masked characters please
Just how "real" do you try to make your settings?
As much as is appropriate. If a setting is contemporary or intentionally grounded, realism is something you should aim for. If a setting is fantastical, over the top or abstract in some way, then realism is an albatross you're better not concerning yourself with.
>>52106439
What about an elves&dragons setting that still tries to be grounded and authentic, does it make sense deciding how magic interacts with the laws of physics and how the dragon has to eat certain trees to build up gas, and chew some certain precious metal ores to get spark to ignite it to breathe fire, or warming the gas to aid its huge body flying, or that dancing in the sky throwing fire is a mating ritual, and so on?
Are players more likely to enjoy it, or hate it?
The obvious flaw is that someone smarter than you spots an inconsistency, and by trying to be real you are making that inconsistency from an expected thing to an exception that needs fixing.
>>52106484
It entirely depends on the group, the game and what they care about.
Are those details interesting, useful bits of texture which add to the setting and are valuable to those interacting with it? If so, they're good.
If not? They're essentially pointlessly over complicating things.

Did some more Spellburst Savant homebrew. Broom Jockey is a mobility/flight/speed based spellburst savant with a melee theme.
This is the alpha so feedback is highly appreciated. Among other things, I'm a little iffy if it's got enough melee boost to be functional in combat as most of it's stuff is about mobility and it lost some nova spell getting there. Still, Flyby Attack works nicely with Wave Motion Strike (As it allows a standard action, NOT just an attack)

Medium Rare.
>>52129329
Depends on the tone of the game.
>>52129329
I have no real preference.
I guess it depends on the sort of game I'm expecting/planning on running?
