Halfling, Half-orc, Human (with fey hair)
Halfling just throws on pointless shit and gets unreasonably interested in gimmicks.
Half-orc wants it bigger. Stronger. More POWER.
Human wants it comfy

I need help, my dudes. Me and some random people I've met on a con are gonna start a VtM campaign soon. Would you please help me with original, fresh, weird, fucked up ideas for a character?
>>50787007
We gonna need more info on what kind of game you´re running and what kind of character you need, and why.
>>50787186
It will probably be either Warsaw in 2016, or 90's LA. I can't provide more detail, my GM is enigmatic. I'm open to ANY character.
I'd love to share one resource, but it's in russian. It's really good though and focuses heavily on VtM. And they have this thing where they post concepts with character sheets every friday, and most of those concepts are great. Anyone interested?
You're in charge of making a brand new setting for the D&D franchise. What sort of setting do you create and what new concepts do you try to introduce or re-introduce into the system through it? Would you try to contain it all in one book or spread it out over multiple books? What other forms of media do you tap to promote your setting?
>>50781331
I'd probably just flesh out, edit and refine the one that was built on the foundation of my group's games. We started with "hey check it generic fantasy land #215" and slowly added countrieds, cultures, religions etc as we went by adding new characters and making on-the-fly decisions based on a loose framework.
As for bringing some new life into things? I'd want to refine the shit out of it but we have experimented with an entirely different magic system. Re-doing classes a bit so each one shows a different approach to combat and a different set of powers, while making non-combat stuff not tied to class and more of a point-buy thing per level. Probably emphasizing the idea that most people with access to it eventually wind up being eldritch knight types, some favoring one element of the puzzle or another sure but basically everyone who spends a lot of time adventuring or soldiering in general is gonna have at least a little skill with melee and ranged weapons, at least one spell and some level of armor specialization. Fluff-wise my setting isn't very astounding in terms of originality, it's just a fun place to do adventures in.
I'd try to contain it, but if I had to I'd make a setting bible and a rulebook side by side. If I was promoting this I'd probably try to get some kind of fiction out that wasn't explicitly sold as being based on or around a D&D game, and release them both at once with very little advertising doing intentional tie-ins.
I write an entirely underwater setting, with accompanying mechanics, races, and monsters. Also tons of fucking pretty art for the book. The book itself also works as an aide for running underwater adventures. It's inspirations are that of things like The Little Mermaid, and the Barsoom series. It reveals the beautiful and weird world that lies underwater, and what sorts of adventures can happen there.
We promote it with a stream of internet celebrities playing a game in that setting, probably DMed by Chris Perkins or Matthew Mercer, but it's also at a pool somewhere in California.
>>50781331
I would be as overtly vague as possible about geography and overworld and just write a set of discrete areas that GMs could use as hubs for their games.
You suddenly find your self with the powers of an Evil Overlord. Think Maleficent, Voldemort, the MC in Dungeon Keeper, etc. You can choose
>what your powers areDon't be a dweeb and say "I can kill everything instantly" or some shit
>who (Or what) your underlings are
>what the A E S T H E T I C of your evil realm is (Can't be a good villain without style)
>what your obligatory plan to take over the world is
Go.
>>50780142
I am the infamous Black Knight.
I rule with a fair but iron fist. My taxes are high but my kingdom is safe.
I'm an anti-paladin of Bane. My powers are themed on Fear, Law, Tyranny, and Evil. But I'm mostly martial, and my specialty is riding combat.
My minions are simple fools easily defeated by the heroes. And monsters. Monsters to entice peasants to pay their taxes.
My aesthetic is Black. I wear Black Armor. Nobody ever seen me without. My kingdom is medieval, and my minions are Black Guards. Black Hooded warlocks. Black dyed assassins, and so on.
My plan to take over the world? Conquer via force of arms, or rescue a neighbors from a monster I myself created. I only ask for fealty. They know little better.
>>50780142
>I am the loyal and wise advisor. Friend to all, foe to none. The [insert ruler's name] trusts me with the boring day to day details of his/ her kingdom.
>Aside from my diplomacy skills, I do have some talent as a sorcerer and alchemist. But I don't like to brag. One of my other hobbies is herbology. It is fascinating how certain flora have regenerative properties, but if too much is taken it can result in addiction or even death.
>I don't really have minions per say. While the guards and other nobles obey me implicitly, it is due to the trust of our king/ queen. I do however have a growing of friends who rely on my sage advice, and occasional the occasional tincture. Its sad they have to take the medicine so often, but I am sure the benefits outweigh their dependence.
>As for myself, I dress plainly, but in a manner that my station demands. I prefer not to be the center of attention, just the person everyone comes to after the party.
>My long range plans involve making more alliances to benefit our monarch, and increasing my circle of friends.
>I only want to make the world a better place after all.

ITT: things that bother you about your current campaign.
>my dm is a huge wow/blizzard player and its so obvious, every encounter is clearly shaped by that
>all the other players love to keep secrets from eachother, including backstorys, flaws, and items they may have (they dont just keep it from my character, they keep it from me as a person)
>>50772470
Not saying you're wrong for wanting to know, but why do you want to know what everybody .has?
>dislike my character, but he's the only one filling his particular role in the party
>>50772517
I guess for me the game should be more about our team vs the DM. I tend not to enjoy secrecy amongst the party.
But i know this is personal preference. Just like the WOW thing, some people may enjoy it, but it bothers me a bit
>>50772470
>We have a munchkin that is playing a mage after they bitched for an hour about their previous character they made "not being efficient enough in combat". He never shuts up about the abilities he has/plans to have and has little to no backstory beyond "I'm a drifter and I go wherever the wind takes me."
>The witch in our party constantly wants to fuck/flirt with everything. She even hit on the old man of the party.
I like the campaign, otherwise. Good story, and the GM is really doing swell despite it being her first time being a GM.

What is V4 going to change? Just curious. I have wanted to get into this game for a while. My inability to paint camouflage on such small figures kept me back, but I can probably handle it now.

Have fun doing british rifles (something like 10 different versions, including all colonies). Or DAK Panzer platoons (6 different tanks).

SUFFER NOT THE ALIEN TO LIVE!
I am working on fleshing out a end of the world game. I am working on what would be the some of the things people would eat.
I know the usual - Dog, Cat, Other humans, mutants, wild game and so on, but is there anything really wacky you can think of for food?
Cardboard treated in caustic soda
nettles
dandelion
Ect
any other ideas?
>>50797806
Depends on the nature of the apocalypse, really. If there's vegetation left, it's likely you could find edibles there. Any wild animals are fair game. There's also salvage, canned goods and such.
