>PCs are always "just too late" or "just in the nick of time" as the plot calls for it
>Did the party make their best effort to set aside all distractions and make haste? The PCs are still just too late to stop the cult from conjuring demons, and now the party has to defeat those unleashed demons!
>Did the party dilly-daddle and spend their time sipping tea and drinking alcohol when they should have been on the move? The PCs are nevertheless just in the nick of time to rescue the princess from being sacrificed by the evil dragon!
No. How about this.

Create a calendar of events that will occur on each day unless the PCs intervene.
"Day 1: The cult/dragon is doing X.
"Day 2: The cult/dragon is doing Y."
And so on. Upload the entire calendar as a single paste on a pastebin-like website that has timestamps and password protection. Give each player a link to the paste, but do not tell them the password.

As the party goes along the adventure, refer to your calendar as normal and have events unfold appropriately. Do not, under any circumstances, deviate from the calendar, unless it would be incontestably in-character for the villains to adjust their plans to respond to the PCs.

At the end of the adventure, give the players the password to the paste link. This way, they can see what the "original course of fate" was supposed to be, and how their choices and actions meaningfully altered that course of fate. At no point were they ever artificially "just in the nick of time."

Is this a good idea?

In a sci-fi setting, a player character(autistic engineer) uses LSD to exercise his creativity.
Any ideas? Mini games, buffs, quests or how should we roleplay while he is in this altered perception of reality?

You reply and link by clicking on the post number, newfriend.

If neither of you have ever taken LSD, I think your next step is clear. You can decide how to implement it in the game afterwards. Bonus: you get a real life adventure as well as an imaginary one!

How to create alien society that behaves more like one huge mafia rather than a nation? I want them to not even have a concept of patriotism as their line of thinking is basically ''he lives in the same disctrict as me, that's my guy but that fuckwit from the other side of town surely looks for trouble'' and unite only when some massive material gain is involved (and still the biggest unions are like three cities and everyone goes back to either being neutral or trying to fuck each other over the second they achieved their goals).

Which Warhammer Chaos God would run the best D&D campaign?
26 posts and 4 images submitted.

Well, it depends on what you're looking for. Khorne would be the best for a murder simulater, Tzeench for intricate plots, Slaanesh has all your Magical Realm needs covered, and I have no idea what Nurgle or the Horned Rat would do.

>>49394559
Khorne runs a simple hack n slash murderhobo campaign where everyone play barbarians except for Kharn, who plays a war domain cleric cause he's a nice guy like that

Slaanesh runs the most digusting /d/&/d/ campaign you could think of, full of magical realms and roles for anal circumference. Like everything it does, it devolves into an orgy every night

Tzeentch has been watching too much game of thrones so every one of his NPCs are backstabbing just-as-planned shitheads, which would be unplayable expect that every single player is That Guy

Nurgle's games are the best, since he cares about his players enough to put the effort into making the game fun for them and he has all the drinks and snack you can catch gonorrhea from

Pick a class that is self sufficient and does not require a lot of gear or time to sit down and make things.

Also, find some axiomatic and anarchic weapons just in case.

How to play the game. Check rulings on gatherer if you have issues. When you trade use a website like tcgplayer to trade for equivalent dollar value, trading for estimated value will only lead to you getting card sharked. Remember that the point is to have fun, if you aren't enjoying playing stop and get out.

Cards aren't cheap; if you want to get in, it's best to start with draft events or with some friends who are also looking at getting into the game. Play that way until you're ready to move up to more competitive play, and always ALWAYS ask a judge/person who can be trusted if you're not sure of something.
Otherwise, play online and find a deck archetype you like, find a good modern/standard deck that plays that way, and get ready to drop between $100-$800 depending on the format.

Worst part? It will sell.
I can see why they would not put Batman in there. It's their main selling character I presume and he has a million different versions already. If you put Batman in the starter, the customer may feel "eh, I already have a Batman" and not buy 5 more.
I was gonna say something about balance as well, but then it's Suicide Squad vs Joker and some goons, so it looks like balance would be out of whack. I do not know how the game works though.

First time playing DnD 5e. Could you guys give me rate/give advice on my tiefling bard?

"My character was born of a priest falling victim to a succubus. The townsfolk found out that the priest had a demon child so the priest fled with the child. On the road out of town he was ambushed and left to die. The next day a farmer from another town on the road to market came across the bloody scene and found my character under the body of my father. The farmer took pity and raised my character as his own in secret. Years pass, my character's only entertainment is learning the lyre-guitar and listening to the stories told by his father of great warriors and heroes. One day a small child stumbles into the farm while playing and sees my character. That night the village assembles a mob, killing the farmer and burning the farm. My character escapes into the woods with his life and his lyre, and spends his days moving from town to town, playing his songs and never staying too long in one place in case the town decides yet again he is better off not breathing."

That's not how tieflins in 5e work, they're not direct spawns of demons, specially not the PHB ones who are descendants of humans who made pacts with demons eons ago an now they all look like that.
>>
>>49393741
Too edgy. 5e tieflings are more like "I'm secretly following you because I suspect you're up to no good" than "ALL WHO TOUCH YOU MUST BE SLAUGHTERED."

This is my character sheet so far but I'm not sure what to put on it

I don't want to be a boring Edgelord on my first run, what would spice it up a bit?

I figured making the tiefling a bard would be cool so it doesn't end up being a power fantasy character

So, I've been wanting to either play in or run a cyberpunk game. My problem is that the only book my friends own in the subject area is Shadowrun, and I don't really want magic involved. Whats a good system for it? Please no GURPS, I dont really have the money to buy a SET of books.

I've heard Cyberpunk 2020 is pretty good.

I heard it was but it feels dated now. If anyone can give a detailed analysis of pros and cons I would be very grateful.
>>
>>49393578
"Buy"?
What is this word?

In all seriousness, you can find rulesets for damn near anything online. And there's usually a general floating around here for quite a few systems.
You want a cyberpunk feel, but without magic, CP2020 is a good bet. It is dated, but it's probably a good bet if you don't want GURPS.

How do I get good at building Magic decks?

>Build many decks
>Work on improving them instead of just trashing them when they don't work
>Look at decklists for inspiration, think about why people chose things or didn't choose other things

>>
The first thing you need to learn is what makes a good deck.

That means you have to play with good decks against good decks.

Then once you understand the qualities necessary to build a good deck, you can attempt to build a deck and then test it against other good decks.

www.mtgtop8.com
Is a good resource for the top decks.

>>49393269
It always takes me like a week to build a single deck. I just feel overwhelmed with all of these cards. Then once I have found a pile of cards I like, I have a hard time figuring out what to do with them, which ones to keep and leave out, etc.
