Have you ever ran a Dead Space or just a space horror game? How did it go?
Bonus points for trapped on scary ship.
General Space Horror thread.
>>51345780
I've been playing with an idea for a space horror game.
>Tell players it's a hard sci fi space exploration and investigation set in the year 2070
>Players should be scientists, engineers, medical professionals, and mental health experts
>They board space craft bound for Alpha Centauri to relieve a team there
>They get into stasis
>Wake up 200 years later
>They're not the only ones aboard the ship
>>51346121
I hope you went full Pandorum on them anon
>>51346549
Haven't run this yet. Just an idea I've kicked around. I think it'd be really hard to sell this to some of my players though.
Who's the punching bag of your group?

Mick Foley is cute
The Professor. He gets shot in the leg when we need to escape and not get eaten but he's always the utmost diplomat for our group.
>>51345134
The wizard. He's too soft-spoken to override the two hotheads arguing strategy, is the only one that has responsibility shunted off to him when the leader is out, and has gotten the tar beat out of him during several pvp spars, to the point of wanting to learn how to martial to defend himself better and also causing him to fear the ranger's uber-saves.
Too ill to paint but can still start a thread edition.

>Question
How do you handle going out in public when you have a blatantly inhuman looking character? Like a high sekhem mummy or a Nosferatu who got hit with the mutant sewer dweller stick.
>>51343489
I wish to play as a mummy.
>>51343489
are you fagboys ready for the influx from /v/ and the werewolf barafags when the werewolf game drops?
>>51343489
Obfuscate helps Nosferatu a lot.
IT'S LADY MALYS
I WAS MOTHERFUCKKING RIGHT
>>51341376
>it's another "GW trying to make woman miniature" episode

who's dat?
Tau can go home. It looks like Eldar is going full anime.
>>51341174
HOLY SHIT
CHAOS ELDARS
Holy fuck
They blindsided everyone on this one.
Oh btw OP, Eldar were ALWAYS full anime, but they're tasteful about it.
>>51341282
Nah. It's the avatar of the new Eldar god Yngve or whatever it was called.
>>51341174
I love the soulstones floating around it. Fantastic model.
Take a moment to look at it. Tell me this doesn't look like it'd fit in 40k.
I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
"Fitting in" to 40K is, by the setting's design, not a hard thing to do.
>>51340921
It's true; the whole thing is like a mulligan stew.

How do you guys feel about giving playsers strongholds at a certain level?
Whats a stronghold
>>51341152
I'm not OP, but a stronghold is basically a heavily fortified base of operations, like a castle or booby-trapped pocket dimension.
>>51340326
Giving? Not really. But back in 1e/2e that was something that could happen. It wasn't so much given to you as an assumed goal the dm would make possible.
I think 5e should have brought that back, along with henchman.
I need ideas for "themes" for gangs for a cyberpunk campaign I'm running that inspired in "The Warriors".
>>51338618
Weebs
>>51338618
Here's some gangs i've used in my shadowrun campaign over the years
Zeta Magi - Magicians
NanoAngels - All Female Cybertech Gang
Bone Pack - Ghoul Gang
BattleBorgs - Cybertech Gang
Ultima Humanis - Racist Anti-Metahuman Gang
Sons of Asgaard - Troll & Orc Bikers
Daemon Riders - Bikers
Iron Crosses - Neo-Nazis
>>51338618
That's like you want to play Cyberpunk 2020 at its worst. Theme gangs are shit. Anyway, I can give you some ideas:
Kemono Deluxe: A gang of brutal furrie rapists (see exotics Chromebook 2)
K.O.M.: Kill All Men, a extremist feminist and man-hating gang. Mostly composed of overweight women with purple and red hair.
Village People: Homosexual poser gang who copies the Village People
Vixens: All female gang specialized in blackmail and extortion
The Gathering: Gang of retards who play collectible card games
Nip Nong: Racist gang of fake Asians who mock Asian culture
Desperadoes: Mexican gang who dressed like desperadoes from the Wild West
Splatterday Night Fever: Discomusic-loving gang. They take dancing too seriously
I can give you even more shitty ideas if you want to make your game even worse.
>>51338449
All stats and systems are arbitrary and do not reflect how the real world works. /thread
Depends on the system.
Attributes, like so many other things, should never be defined in a vacuum. It's all about what your system cares about. This applies to stats and to skills, which is why arbitrary skill lists also suck.
Is the difference between precise hand eye coordination and physical agility and swiftness a meaningful and important difference in your system where both are valuable in their own ways? Then the distinction is meaningful. Otherwise, you can roll them together.
Then again, there are systems where that whole thing not even need to be its own stat.
>>51338463
/threading your own posts just makes you a faggot.
>>51338449
Absolutely one of my worst pet peeves. But that is more with my own problem with the word Dexterity. On the other hand, having both makes them building an thief-type character harder.
So I would probably go where Perception and Intelligence (or some combination stat thereof) is used to use the tools, where as Agility is used for all the, well, agile stuff.
Post dungeon maps and anatomy.

"There has to be a point to all this."
"When we got our books, it was like discovering the cheat codes for the universe. The least we could do was heal wounds and move objects, call and dismiss fire, make it rain or shine. We were going to fix the world. God and Allah and Buddah and Vishnu were going to look at how we used our gift and nod, saying "well done!", and we would prove to be better..."
"...better than this."
"There were five of us, then. Richard and Darryl got in a fight that got Washington involved. Kelly chose Landon over me, and the bastard left her to die in a demiplane when the Templars got tired of him dropping meteors on whoever or whatever he felt was a threat to his 'new Golden Age'."
"He tried to go back to when he was a child. Tried to reverse time so he could fix things, give himself a head start on magic. I don't understand exactly what happened, but he got the incantations and calculations wrong. I found him weeping in a smoldering crater where his house used to be."
"Then he... blipped out of existence. Gone. Not just dead. Some sort of temporal paradox. My days since have not been pleasant. Sometimes Kelly comes over to my empty house, wants to come in, disappears when she walks across the threshold. Sometimes she's already in my bedroom. I can't touch her. She won't look at me. She just stares at a corner."
"One time she was crying."
"I had to erase my parents memories of me. That was my deal with the Templars. To my mother and father, I died when I was 4 months old due to a genetic defect."
"Kelly follows me. Sometimes she's... there enough to ask questions. Over and over. Sometimes she just says "help", and I want to help her... but..."
"Time travel is forbidden. Case in point, Landon. But I will get it right. I will."
"There has to be a point to all this."
"There doesn't have to be a point to all of this."
"Bad things happen. Little girls get run over by cars and die, newlywed couples have their houses catch on fire and they die, and five children try to make the world a better place with magic books and NO SORRY have two dead friends, one that never existed, and one that only exists sometimes. Oh, and an ENTIRE organization breathing down your neck and doing "I told you so"s when NO ONE told me a goddamn thing."
"No, there doesn't have to be a point. God is making popcorn, and our lives are so much channels he flips through, trying to find some brief amusement in eternity."
"Landon didn't get erased entirely. Some people remember things he did and said, events he was in, but they can't remember his name or what he looked like."
"One of the templars explained Kelly's condition as bi-planar temporal distortion- her time-line is split between here, which exists, and another place she was bound to by Landon, which doesn't exist anymore, because Landon doesn't exist, so reality forgets and remembers her."
"Could I save one person, God? Is it so much to ask that I salvage one good thing?"
"There has to be a point to all this."
"There has to be a way to fix this."
"We can't go back and undo what Landon did because it never happened, even though it did, so we can't undo Kelly's condition the normal way."
"The one glimmer of hope was that maybe, when one of many apocalypses or ends of the world occurred, one of the gods would right her because dealing with her glitching in and out of existence would be inconvenient for them."
"She was conscious and aware for a whole hour today. She knew what had happened. We hugged, and she begged me not to let go, and I was telling her I was going to fix this. They took her to get a blood sample, something to hold onto."
"She disappeared, and the vial her blood was in was empty. She came back for a minute, and it reappeared for a minute exactly."
"If we get Landon back, I'm killing him again."
"His plan was to bind her timeline to a demiplane, then alter events to make him an emperor of earth. Fucking megalomaniac."
"She thought she was going to prevent 9/11. World War 2. Lying sonofabitch."
"We were going to cure cancer. I found the cure. Templars won't let me, because there are other groups who are a lot less polite than them who will exterminate every last mage, because treatment is more profitable than curing."
"I got an email from Kelly's parents again. I promised if I ever saw her, I'd tell her to come home."
"Lying is okay in the Templar's book. People can't handle truth, they say. Honesty is a code among them and no one else."
"I will fix this. I did not learn to shift atoms and bend energy just to watch some idiot's folly damn me and everything I love."
Cool
