Priority doesn't pass between playing a walker and being able to activate a loyalty ability, so she can still get off a +1 and be left with 4 loyalty.

Only if it's like a Finnish sauna where the dwarves beat each other with branches and get drunk. Anything else is more of a human/elven flavor.

What do the branches do?

Op, had they acted like normal people you would have found some other reason to hate them anyway. I think that The only point of this sorry is so you can feel all high and mighty about being better than a bunch of grognards (big fucking accomplishment).

I have two shops.

The first is the one I've gone to for awhile now, and I always try to buy my singles through him first. The magic crowd is pretty cool save for a few outliers. The YGO crowd is pretty shitty. Hell, the guy who used to run it was fired for stealing, and some other morons broke in and only took a few boxes. The smell you've described is from the YGO people. I can't walk in there on Saturdays. Otherwise, the people there are shockingly normal for the most part.

The second store is a lot more laid back. It's new and so are most of the players. There is a smell policy on the door, and the owner said there were a few offenders that have since been taken care of. The most prominent game is magic, but DnD and board games are popular. It's very chill. However, I have never seen so many stereotypes in one place. You name it, it's there. Still, I enjoy it there.

I haven't bought RPG books in forever, but that sounds like a fucking steal.

You get a few books, that's sounds pretty good.

Does the protagonist continuously rail about Black men stealing White women and ramble about dirty immigrants and building walls?

>>50078005
He's an imperial so enough to make him look important/badass but not enough to change the setting at large.

He attempts to conquer the Tau to extreme effect, but dies when a Kroot mercenary learns Thrawn has been lying to him all this time about some vital issue concerning honor.

It was so artistically done, too.

Spooky. Make it segue into cyborg uplifts and dissociative body disorder and then have fun with that. One shot the first session, make the rest the tun on the head shit.

Might be fun as a mini-campaign with the right group.

>>50078029

Yeah, to hit the point home you'd have people who would be totally healthy but would otherwise be disabled in other means such as loosing the use of your legs after taking severe damage.

While you can still move parts of your craft that would associate with your legs, your actual legs are useless as if you became a parapalegic.

>>50077797
If I'm using an existing name, then its meaning will be directly related to the importance to the character. Usually in a vague way.

When making up fake names a similar formula goes for phonemes. More important characters will have named made of meaningful phonemes, while unimportant ones will just have whatever sounds good.

>>50077797
When you have to name a fuck-load of NPC's, there's no shame in taking the easy route.

>>50077797
Assuming we're not talking about a modern, real-world (or close to it) setting, I find a real-world name I like then change a letter, add a syllaboe, etc.

So, if I like the name Emily (and I do), I'll mold and change it until I might come up with Emberleigh. Kevin might become Kerevin.

Then I do the dick test. my players are dicks and will invariably try to twist names into juvenile jokes. Renci Rosh (from a 3rd party Star Wars adventure) was forever referred to as Rancid Tusch, for example. So I try to predict and avoid that shit when I can.

Gladiator arena. Book tickets to the Hesperax show.

Haemonculus lab tours. Grab a souvenir.

Super-opium den. Hire a Sslyth to watch you while you're passed out.

Top-class prostitutes. Look for the ones that have a tattoo that looks like a weird eye inside a heart. They're more expensive but they're worth it.

Stay a while.

Stay a longer while.

Don't worry, we can plug that soul-leak up for you, just stay a bit longer - we're going on a realspace raid.

Don't forget to come see us, before and after your trip, sir.

I hate class and level. To me, this wargaming shorthand has no place in an actual rpg., preferring to use point buy to get abilities that support your character concept instead of having to fight the system and min-max expectations to get the character you actually wanted.
Oh, and support in system for non-combat activities to the same degree as combat.

>Girl is playing righteous human paladin

Found That Guy.

>>50077404
I do like the concept of having point buy for abilities and skills instead of classes. Invest fully in magic if you want to be a traditional wizard at the expense of combat prowess and survivability and whatnot.

I'd be concerned for having more support and rules for non-combat stuff, as then we get stuff like the verbal duels that Pathfinder now has. It might take away from the role-playing.

Khorne's a paraplegic old man, what's your point Anon?

No ideas? Are you not gourme/tg/entlemen?

>>50076353
It's has been done, over and over. Not to say you shouldn't do it, but you're not exactly treading new ground here.

Do you know how to cook? You really need to understand how to put a meal together in the real world before doing something like this. Sure, I could create a meal using cockatrice meat for you if you wanted, but if you want to last a whole campaign you need to understand what to do with chicken. If you want a shortcut, I HIGHLY recommend a book called The Flavor Bible. It's a giant list of what ingredients go well with what. Just pick whatever real world ingredient you think would be closest the fantasy one you've got and work from there. I almost always reach for it when I want to invent an exotic meal for my players.

You could roll on a set of tables for cooking style, garnish, and side dish as an option.

Currently playing a LG Mind Flayer Mystic/Fighter Multiclass that is pretending to be a plain-old High Elf Fighter with the help of a Hat of Disguise (and humorously hindered by his Charisma stat of 3). None of the players have caught on to his true nature, but my GM makes my horse specifically dislike him. Sometimes he bucks him off when he uses psychic powers, sometimes he moves away from him when he tries to mount, sometimes he makes some sort of sign that he understands the telepathic messages of genuine friendship the Mind Flayer sends him.

Though it isn't crying, his horse did whinny in joy when he went into a dubious portal where the bad guys were without bringing him along. I am genuinely curious what the DM will make my horse do, especially since he said his horse was the smartest horse out of the party's mounts.

>>50076672
Forgot to add that the horse probably isn't fooled by the Hat of Disguise. Hopefully I can reunite my character with this fun horse and become friends with it.

Well, for one thing you either haven't looked very hard, or got overwhelmed by the volume, because there's a lot of info out there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Church_architecture

But, that's a lot of shit, and I happen to know a fair bit about churches and things.

What sort of church were you thinking of, what size?

It's very common to have living quarters on the church property, though the nature will depend on the type, location, and size of church - from small village churches, to cathedrals, to monasteries.

>>50075719
>But for example, I've spent a lot of time just trying to figure out if a church might have the dwelling of a priest literally, physically attached to it instead of as a separate building

More common in Europe than the US (and becoming more rare in the US as you head west), more common in Catholic than Protestant.

>and if so, what the heck would that be called?

Remember how you said religious differences wouldn't come up? Because religious differences. Priory, rectory, parish house, clergy house, parsonage, all are different names for the same kind of structure, depending upon who it belongs to and who it houses.

>a small kitchen

A large number of all churches have a kitchen whether or not they have a residence. The bigger the congregation, the more likely they'll have at least one, if not a large commercial kitchen suitable for feeding [NUMBER OF CONGREGANTS].

If they're Mormons, they have a food stockpile somewhere close.

It's the latter. I'm totally overwhelmed.

I'm not really sure how to describe what kind of size I'm considering, but certainly not anything huge. Probably something small to medium in terms of capacity, but not tiny - searching has surprised me with how small functional churches can actually be. I don't want it to be overwhelming large for a single character to explore - the area of actual worship doesn't need to be particularly imposing. I'm trying to avoid creating a sense of claustrophobia right off the bat, at least just based on size alone. I'd rather that grow over time.

Thank you so much for answering, by the way - I appreciate it a lot. I'll try to give any details I can think of that would be useful, but I'll be the first to admit that my intentions for the structure are still pretty vague - I only started working on this a while ago, and I was focusing more on what kind of game it would be than anything else.

A major element is that the player can leave the church, yes - but they have to return there every night or they're basically screwed. At which point, they really have no real idea what's going on outside. For this purpose, I wanted to have it so that the only windows in the church are stained glass, to make it much harder to make out any details, especially at night.
