Ben Newmart art is always good for an OP.

It's a shame that so many WW fans are turned on by monster bestiality.

So, I am terrified they are gonna gimp changeling.

I know we haven't seen much for dream crafting or pact making but I'm scared changelings are going to end up with no progression besides "RAISE YOUR SPAT STAT" and "BUY MORE POWERS"

The old pact system had flaws(you got WAY too many freebies for one) but I like changelings sacking a piece of their free will in exchange for magical power.

If they gimp pact making hopefully they drop something in to fill some of that void.

>>55094964
I mean, they have pact making in 2e with demon, so we know they aren't afraid of it as a system. I would mostly hope they can pull the word count to fit a healthy pact system.

Major leaders have been replaced by duplicates who are sleeper agents for Lolth

>>55094722
I don't pay attention to the lore of dnd, I just make my own world. So idk what Lolth is, sorry.

>>55094671
Emperor's protection, veil between reality and the immaterium providing protection, can't be bothered, too much willpower, some combination of all of the above.

>>55094671
Because they have to ask for Abaddons permission first obviously.

>>55094837
As a Black Library writer who has worked with ADB personally, this is correct.

I would unironically recommend GURPS. A few of the authors are huge weaboos, and have proven as much with some pyramid articles that do a good job at detailing rip offs of various Mahou Shoujo settings. It provides granularity which allows you to put together a teenage girl very well with the core book, along with add any powers you could ever want. The actual gameplay is straightforward and free of the bullshit that you would have to deal with if you played Magical Burst. It can of course been run with either high lethality or more cinematic rules. This isn't just my autism speaking. I just haven't found a system that would do the entire premise better.

Maybe Princess: the Hopeful

When I found out my trading card game had lore.

The yugioh duel terminal stories (not the show, the archetypes themselves) are actually pretty decent, so I wouldn't go that far (yet)

Managed to find a PDF in an archive that matches the Aim Nerve Brain Flair thing.
I know I've seen it before, I'm just not totally sure what it was. I think it may have been an F-Zero homebrew.

>>55094421
It's called sigil. Everything happens in sigil.

>>55094392
I feel like you only vaguely understand the references you're trying to make.

Basically survival in the warp is based on willpower, so yes, he would.

Yeah. He has mad willpower and his armor is magical. I don't see why he wouldn't be able to rek face in there.

Fear is simple. It's all about convincing people that they are exceeding a certain threshold of danger. Any strong monster is enough to invoke fear.

But, what makes horror enjoyable is never forgetting the rest of what makes a story good. You want a good mystery, you want people either revealing their humanity or surpassing it, you want the terror to be a part of the story rather than the story to be a byproduct of the horror.

Modern horror is mostly jump scares, gore, and making people uncomfortable. In that order. It is not a good genre even in most movies. In mediums with player agency it's even worse.

But if you insist...

Atmosphere is the most important thing. If you can't get a good atmosphere at the table, then don't even bother. Try using music. But most groups get together to just joke around.

Second thing is mechanics. Dread is generally agreed to be one of the best and most understandable 'horror' system.

>>55093239
In my experience, it's all in the atmosphere. My players are much more terrified when I have some background music playing, as well as some sound effects here or there. It depends on what kind of situation you have them in, but in my campaign they routinely delve into dungeons and underground tunnels in order to clear out cultists and cult related shenanigans. Play on paranoia, and know that they're more scared of what they can't see. A few things that really freak them out are:
>Long, narrow hallways that lead into darkness
>Traps are designed to keep things IN, not out
>Small things that skitter about
>Shifting corridors
>Enemies that phase through walls
>Unexplained sounds echoing from much deeper into the dungeon
The rest is just cult related fuckery but I once had them clear a dungeon with nothing in it but aftermath, took them way longer than usual. To them, any area they hadn't seen was just full of deadly shit. After all, it had to be somewhere, right?

What does your post have anything to do with Men's Rights Activism?

so what? they slay fedora neckbeard numale faggots for Duke Banhammer

>>55093329
This. Kill the numales

prolly pretty well

They'd dominate it through population alone, the post war populations of the halo universe factions numbered in the single digit billions. Once they figure out ftl, which even humans were able to develops, they'd quickly conquer just about everyone

I have crossed the great beyond, achieved all that is possible and impossible. There is no mountain unclimbed, path unwalked, sea unsailed. I have risen above Olympus Mons, above the spires of Mars. I have sank below the oceans of Jupiter, into lightless depths. I have skimmed the surface of the Sun, through solar storms. I have settled the galaxy and united all beings. I have built the greatest and largest particle accelerator. I have unified physics and mastered science. I have opened the walls between space and travelled beyond the reach of light. I have disturbed the sleeping Gods and escaped the very universe. I have done it all and you will not remember me. Farewell.

I guess you did a great job conveying the flavor of the world, because it's making me sick.
