Send me pictures of orcs. I don't care if they're pretty orcs, sexy orcs, ugly orcs, scary orcs, lady orcs, boy orcs or what have you also, while you're here let's talk about how cool orcs are.

If you like Orcs, you should play Burning Wheel. Orcs are one of the most interesting races in Burning Wheel IMO.

I've been playing 5e for a while now, and every time I look at this spell, I'm puzzled what's it's purpose. There are a few obvious uses...
> Feign your death
But it has obvious somatic and vocal components, your opponents WILL suspect something. Also, if you cast it on yourself you can't even dismiss it at will, since you're incapacitated and it requires an action to dismiss.
> Cast it to slow death from poison/AIDS
But it has duration of just 1 hour. AIDS is not going to kill your party member in exactly one hour.
I know you can come up with some clever uses.

Sneak into or out of a place on corpse carts.
There are probably cheaper alternatives than this tho.

>>51275098
also turn in a bounty, or just get rid of one on any close personal friends who have run afoul of the law.
you might be able to pull something off where you send the "dead" bodies through fire or acid or other hazards, confident that they can come out the other end.

Hello, I'm That Guy. I'm applying to join your game and I've submitted three character sheets to the DM.
Sheet A is blatantly a character from a TV show (video game, comic, ect). I will try to roleplay similar to the way the character acts in the show during gameplay. It is not very optimized and takes abilities that make them more like character in it the show. The backstory is so-so, pulling much from the TV character's backstory and making it fit into your game's setting with a small amount of personalization. I care excessively about the character because I really like the show.
Sheet B is a bland character mostly just numbers for the sake of rolling. I will try to roleplay with what little backstory I make up for myself but ultimately I just want to look cool. It is is highly optimized for gameplay and is probably min-maxed using guides online, but I don't really know how to use the build properly. The backstory has little effort, being based the first ideas that came to mind. I don't really care about the character or what happens to it but become annoyed if I have to roll a new one.
Sheet C is a fairly cliched character with an extremely cliched name. I will try to roleplay to match my backstory and act in the ways described in it. It's choices of abilities are standard and unsurprising for it's concept, baring a few outliers. The backstory is sort of interesting but nothing special. I care about the character because I put in some effort making up a backstory from scratch.
Which one would you accept as a DM, or as another player? Would you tell me to go back to playing video games? Would you try to help me make something better? Just answer what you want.
This is actually me not just some thought exercise. I am That Guy, and I need some insight.

If you have no interest in playing anything else than those character types, even if the GM and players are willing to help you brainstorm ideas, get out of the videogame mindset or otherwise help you make a character that brings some interesting roleplaying to the table, I'd ask you to go back to videogames.
I wouldn't throw you out if you gave me sheet C, but I'd be asking you to free up a few hours over Skype or Discord to juggle character ideas for your next character. You wouldn't have any fun in the groups I GM for with sheet B, and you'd be thrown out on your face if you came with sheet A.
Sheet A is out because it shows a lack of creative initiative and a strong dependence on a source outside the game and setting. It's going to break immersion, bring in unwanted themes and likely require a bit of GM fiat and dispensations to satisfy a fan, and on top of that it's too risky to allow in someone who's so invested in a character that they didn't even care enough about the game to make a character that they like by themselves.
Sheet B is for a board game. Play that character in a board game, and there's no problem. Bring it into a roleplaying game, and no one's going to have fun. It's like someone trying to play handball in the middle of a basketball match.
Sheet C is a good start from a roleplaying persepctive, but creative writing and creativity in general is an extremely important part of roleplaying. I've never met someone who can't be creative, just people who don't want to be - so buckle down and make a character who's a person and not a bundle of clichés. As the GM, I help any and all players with making characters, but that also means you have no excuse for making an outright bad one.

Matt ward was told to make an ultra marine codex. At the very end of writing it, he got instructed to turn it into space marines general codex. The fluff was written as an ultra marine wank because it was supposed to be about them.
Continue for years to make them kind of mary sue. Use them as the poster boy for standard flavorless marine instead of the neat kind of roman identity.
There wasn't really anything wrong with them its just year of shit writing.
>>
>>51273507
You're misusing Mary Sue

>>51273483
They've been consistently called the absolute best possible Space Marines for at least a decade or two. This rubs some people the wrong way because it invalidates their favorite chapter or faction. This invalidates others because it's just kind of retard to say "These guys are the best" in a setting designed around making your own dudes.

Actually no, my character and my friend's character ended up in jail because we were put in a sticky situation (an NPC died suddenly without any explanation, we were the only ones in the building) and we absolutely botched our social rolls to not be suspicious about it (along with the fact that I couldn't come up with anything to say to the guards about it), so we were put to jail for a short period until we were bailed by higher-rank characters from our creeds.
>>
>>51269395
And this was DESPITE THE FACT that my friend was the party face, because he just had the worst luck that day altogether. 3 botches in social rolls that day, out of 4 total that were made.

OK. And again, why would I focus on tokens/EBT when the deck is focused on Keywords? If you think I should play a different commander, fair, but the deck is Odric keyword soup for a reason. You keep pushing Mentor, but I'm not seeing how overwhelmingly helpful that's going to be in a deck that has a fair amount of card draw, and cares more about giving my creatures shiny keywords than it does dropping 10000 1/1's.
>>51267038
Except that you didn't even actually answer my question, which was instant speed keyword effects. I literally never asked for white goodstuff and card draw, that was you saying I needed it, even though I would argue that the deck has a decent amount of card draw with Puresteel, Bygone, Skeleton Key, and a bit of recursion from the grave.

Hey /tg/
I've recently been throwing around the idea of having a game that involved the party starting up their own private company for arms dealing and mercenary work. Think in the vein of the irl group Blackwater/Academi, the video games Jagged Alliance and Army of Two, and the animes Jormungand and Black Lagoon.
The goal was to run it somewhere in the 1980-2020 time frame with the players struggling to make ends meet but eventually ending up as major players on a continental or even global stage. I'm looking for a system that is grounded in reality but capable of some cinematic flare. It also needs to have rules for both squad level and large scale combat.

Sounds like any generic system would work, but try Savage Worlds, particularly since it was designed to incorporate large scale combat.
