"Blessings of Kyger Litor" : You may spend a bonus action and a hit die during your turn to immediately regain hit points equal to the highest roll on that die plus your Constitution modifier.

The classic, "turn the burly man into a girl." Or, if they're into that, make them extra burly instead.

Usually these threads are full of fake shit but that's actually one of the most cancerous things I have ever heard that I had to use google to make sure it already wasn't a plot of an anime first before commenting

You have my condolences

Gross dude. Some people really need to back off with the magical realm.

Wow thats the most pointless thing ever. What did the GM have to say about it?

Sexualization and memes. It's a shame though you shouldn't care what people think of you.

Forever GM here, anyone playing anything that isn't a human is automatically a fetishist.

Like, shit dude. I run my ERP sessions Saturday at 9:00 PM/ 10:00 PM Central. Save it for then.

Sexualization and pretentious players

I wouldn't accept app dice as a DM, don't really think most others would either

>>51277986

What's the reason for a dice app over a $7 dice set?

>>51278046
Everyone has a smartphone, and most dice apps are free.

>Soulstones OR captured slaves

Huh, so I guess the Dark Eldar+Regular Eldar alliance is pretty much confirmed then?

... and jokes. Plus Harlequins.

>>51277241

It's basically the difference between a warrior-priest and a priest-warrior.

4e is pretty fun.

> "Paladins are servants of the gods" meme
In Forgotten Realms, maybe. In other settings, paladins are above petty squables of gods - they are devoted to the concepts of JUSTICE or VENGEANCE or LOYALTY depending on the oath.

thanks anon

Just think of all the games you could be enjoying if you didn't spend all your time making lame threads about what you imagine games are like.

>>51276362
>Every thread is anon complaining about shit that never happened, because he's too busy making these threads to actually play games or come up with original content.

>>51276362
Y'know, I can respect that. It shows the GM is actually trying, even if he's not that good at it.

>>51276307
What about the OG fallout pnp?

Fallout was originally going to use GURPS before they ran into licensing issues, so try that.

The Fallout PNP practically rips the rules straight from the game. Not a lot of room for imagination, and a lot of unnecessary shit imo, but if you're going for accuracy...

GURPS next.

GW writters & lawyers.

play and master a variety of games, download the Homebrewery, create regular new content synthesizing you acquired knowledge, if not hideous start a video series, otherwise do a tumblr on you homebrew and philosophical musings, acquire followers, connect to other midrate industry celebs, start a podcast, guest star on others, get invited to events, become a part of the industry.

Write a thing, layout it and publish a PDF on DriveThru.

That's mostly it if you aren't aiming for that handful of companies with full-time employees that includes Paizo, WotC and FFG.

In Giantslayer we came across Giant Porn Tapestries.

My most cherished treasure is the love and affection I feel for you!

And gemstones. I love me some sapphires!

Stop shitposting.

What setting do people use with Calibre to covert epubs to PDF?

I want to start converting some of the books but so far all the conversion have been all fucked up.

Xth for if you're going to make a retarded meme list, read the fucking codex you're memeing about or it'll end up illegal.

>roll out that Belisarius Cawl + Custodes squad + TPD with Auto Caduceus deathstar vs 10 Assault Termies and Lysander
>595 points vs 680 points
>4 turns
>8 rounds of combat
>Lysander unit wiped out
>Custodes unit came out with 2 wounds left on Belisarius
>roll for d3 regen and TPD repair
>back at 4 wounds

Assault Terminators are a sad joke. The only time they ever even got to use their armor was against the Mechandrites and Dataspikes and even against that they took some losses due to the sheer mass of attacks.
