I'm sorry, but who are you again?

Ultraman you fucking fuck.
Only the most iconic Japanese super hero of all time.

Ultraseven, to be specific.

Print on plastic, glue to top of table.

You're all cute furries trying to free your magic school from a ghost invasion.

you start with 2d6 HP

cats get agility
cows get strenght
dogs get awareness
goats get stubborness

for other animals, choose the trait that fits best.

You start with one spell at random, plus a free one (0-summon dim light)

1-elemental summoning (choose an element, it can be anything)
2-exorcism (fucks ghosts)
3-revivify others (might work with things)
4-ward (protect a place or a person from a danger; if you suffer harm, sacrifice the ward instead )
5-minor illusion (can give near invisibility)
6-minor blessing (enhance temporarily a thing, say how, or give aid to an action)

you roll 1d6 for an action. On a 5-6 you succeed, on a 4 there is a cost or downside for success (you're attacked, you have to spend scrolls/reagents, etc). On a 1,2 or 3, something happens, probably bad for you.

roll +1d6 and take the best result if you have a trait that fits the situation.

roll +1d6 and take the best result whenever you have time and resources to prepare a spell. This might let you attempt spells you dont know, even ones not listed here (like using tarot cards for divination, or summoning cthulhu).

You go around the school looking for books and reagents to cast more magic; and fucking ghosts.

To attack, your dice results are summed, and compared to the ghost attack (1d6 usually). The difference is dealt in HP to the lowest roller. Ghosts have 1hp, or more depending on their level.

>roll +1d6 and take the best result whenever you have time and resources to prepare a spell.

edit: also applies for actions that aren't spells

Just to get the pot stirring:
We've all seen With Fire and Sword at this point, but does anyone here actually know anything about the Khmelnytsky Uprising? It seems like a pretty tragic event, just reading about it.

The Cossacks in question had been raiding the Ottomans for years and had basically stalled Turkish incursions into the Ukraine and Europe by themselves on multiple occasions through incessant harassment and looting. However, when told that they couldn't do this anymore because of Commonwealth treaties with the Turks, they got mega pissed, and combined with other grievances they eventually revolted.

Apparently at the time the Cossacks were known primarily for being really badass infantry, which seems incongruous with the stereotype, and fearing the Polish cavalry they brought in the Tatars from Crimea to provide them with horse that could compete with the Poles. This fucked up their reputation, however, because it meant letting Musselmen enslave a bunch of Christians, and the Cossacks had thitherto seen as defenders of Christians from the Eternal Easterner.

Does anyone know more about how the Cossacks fought at that time? What were they doing that would make their infantry stronger than the Poles? In the film they have these sick war-wagons that they use to make forts, I don't know how historical that is.

What's this about dwarves? I thought the whole point of this game was that it's fucking knife ears: the setting.

Reminder for whoever hasn't heard the news. This is going to last "a few months" and is very clearly a ramp-up in playtesting for the first real splat book.

Also Pendleton Ward (creator of Adventure Time) is helping WotC with the next adventure.

There's specific rules at the end of the Farscape Jump that include Talyn only showing up in space-themed Jumps. At least, that's how I interpret it.

I also have a Treeship. Her name is Ryo-Ryo-Ryo and she likes to play tag in asteroid fields.

How difficult is evolution in PM and PMD? I'm planning on grabbing a Vulpix as my starter and going Vulpix myself. The plan for both is to go Ninetales, but I'm wondering just how much a pain in the ass evolution is and whether I should buy it as an option as opposed to doing it in jump.

My GM attempted to get an NPC to romance my character. Both characters (and players) were so awkward that the rest of the group was in stitches for the rest of the night.

It is 204 years since the Battle of Vyazma, which occurred at the beginning of Napoleon's retreat from Moscow. In this encounter, the rear guard of the Grande Armée was defeated by the Russians commanded by General Mikhail Andreyevich Miloradovich. Although the French repelled Miloradovich's attempt to encircle and destroy the corps of Louis Nicolas Davout, they withdrew in a partial state of disorder after suffering heavy casualties from continued Russian attacks. The French reversal at Vyazma was not decisive, but it was noteworthy because of its disruptive impact on the Grande Armée's retreat.

Two weeks earlier Napoleon began his retreat from Moscow because this city was isolated deep in enemy territory and was thus unsuitable as the Grande Armée's winter quarters. His objective at this stage of the retreat was to lead the Grande Armée to his closest depot, Smolensk, which was 270 miles (430 km) west of Moscow. The campaign was then to be recommenced in the spring.

They were compelled to backtrack and retreat along the same road used in their earlier advance on Moscow. Because the territory alongside this road had been economically ravaged by earlier campaigning, the retreat imposed on the Grande Armée extreme conditions of privation and attrition. Lack of foodstuffs soon led to demoralization in the French ranks. By November 3, the day of the action at Vyazma, the retreating Grande Armée was stretched out in a column 60 miles (100 km) long.

The Russians organized themselves into three groups while pursuing the French. First were 5,000 Cossacks commanded by Ataman Platov. This group was supported by Paskevich's 26th Division, with 4,000 troops. Marching slightly to the south was General Miloradovich with the II and IV Infantry Corps, some 14,000 troops in all, and the II and III Cavalry Corps, which amounted to 3,500 soldiers. Miloradovich coordinated the activity of all of these troops.. The main Russian army led by Kutuzov marched further to the south.

Some thoughts I had for semi alien creatures, probably not full blown starfish aliens.

Come up with your races biology and how that would factor into day to day life, create cultures, and perhave have your character predict other characters behavior as if they were a member of its species. We tend to anthropomorphosize creatures we deem friendly. An alien may or may not do this but would make for fun roleplaying

Which system are we talking about?

>>50119952
This is all dependant on in-setting knowledge, in game ethics, and subjective interpretation. Also, what game system are you using? What does you GM think?

well, I guess it's up to your interpretation of "paladin." if they're instruments of some divine good who essentially have no free will and can only ever resolve things 1 right way, then yeah, you've got a big moral conundrum on your hands. if they're holy warriors who follow a code, it doesn't need a "right answer," just a reasonable justification. was their order founded by some dude who had a massive beef with the concept of undead and wanted them exterminated no matter what? do they have some leniency

my inclination would be to have them extremely hostile to the undead and to try to impose some sort of strict rules or monitoring on their existence, but not outright attack them as long as they were communicating

either way, I don't know why your player is trying to tell you how to run your game. I sure hope he isn't doing it DURING the session, because that shit is boring as fuck
