Kinda like this? I usually play retarded holy shiny paladin types but if I do play demonic looking dark edgelord faggot types they're usually just a normal mundane guy who for some reason has BBEG looking armor.

Sort of like an evil One Punch Man I guess?

Thinking about GMing a Dark Heresy campaign, but I'm worried that I won't be able to capture the right atmosphere for the setting and it will fall flat.

Any tips on running a Dark Heresy campaign from veterans?

Everybody on this board always seems to harp on about the dangers of entering the "Magical Realm", but did anyone of you actually ever encounter a player or GM who invoked the Magical Realm?

Is this merely a theoretical "problem" blown out of proportions because of the tendencies of thinking with your dick or are there really such people out in the open?

Required image unrelated obviously.

My DM once had us in the Underdark, and after failing a spot check, he turned off all the lights. We sat there in absolute darkness, listening to him rustle around, making the occasional grunting noise, until he suddenly flipped on the lights, blinding us all.

When I could finally see, I saw him dressed in a gorilla suit with two giant black dildos strapped to either side of his head, and he started to scream "YOU'VE FOUND THE UMBER HULK!!!"

He then violently raped us.

Yes. There's a reason I don't open invite in my local gaming community, and that's because of neckbeards all but fapping at the table while their GM is too fucking dumb/foolish to recognize they've asked him to act out their fetish.

It's also the reason why I write the Drow as a militantly xenophobic matriarchy rather than the more common BDSM elves.

I'm also relatively sure one of my GMs sublimates his emotional frustration IRL by targeting the party face with ephemeral and mercenary sexual encounters. He's surprisingly tasteful about it however, and typically writes it into the plot. Just a rather strange habit.

It's real. It's not as awful as /tg/ implies, and you can fix it with the smallest amount of spine, but it's real.

>>47998871
It's only really a problem if you're playing with randos over Roll20 why or in game finder-type threads, assuming you actually find a game everyone doesn't bail on before the first session. Specifically game finder threads. Folks who come around for ERP don't have the patience to stick around the minimum three months it takes to get a group together.

Oh boy, you're right in almost everyone.

sup /tg/, I havnt posted here in quite a while but now is my most dire hour of need.

Id been out of the pen and paper world for a bit to focus on finishing up my college shit, when some of my best buds from high school asked me if I would run a game of "DnD or something" for them with "Airship pirates and stuff". Sounded cool enough so I gave them some choices on system and long story short we ended up playing Pathfinder, not really any problems so far.

My issue is that I cannot for the life of me get them to roleplay and Im not sure which potential problem to address first. The first problem was that there were 9 people in the party, which has since been shaved down to 7 which are as follows:
1.Sorc who is the king of bad ideas and being super vocal about them. Has thus far led the party on several escapades that have gone nowhere in the name of nothing.
2.Rogue 1, the sorcs partner in crime. Is a bit of a gearhead and seems motivated by nothing but improving the ship to make this numbers higher. He even genuinely argued in favor of just settling down and opening an aftermarket airship parts manufacturer.
3.Rogue 1's girlfriend. Fairly unobtrusive, playing some kind of werewolf (checked and its paizo legit so I dont care), is doing 3/10 work moving things in the right direction, but at least she's trying.

>>47997958
4.Rogue 2, better ideas, but is constantly too careful, is 2nd in line for best RP because he actually comes close to trying. Has lots of history with Talisman so he at least knows what an adventure LOOKS like.
5.Dwarfbro, plays a dwarf in a world where dwarfs are nearly extinct. The only one who RPs. Looks out for dorfs, does dorf stuff, distrusts elves. Sadly, two nice OOC to get the party pointed in the right direction.
6.Dorf's girlfriend, plays a druid or something, she's actually fairly sensible but she is constantly shouted down because everybody hates her for some reason...
7.Paladin, should be the one keeping shit in line, and occasionally does by simply abstaining from lending his considerable utility to bad ideas, otherwise too quiet.
>>
>>47997969
Here are the biggest problems with the group:
1.They will pick up any plot hook that gets thrown at them, but refuse to follow through, or when things get tough they assume that its just a trick.
2.They take about 45 minutes to make any decisions, and when they do they're almost all bad.
3.No matter what I tell them they keep forgetting to put points in knowledge skills, nobody has History or Religion, which makes it difficult for me to even throw these people a bone.

Ill detail what they've been up to, but Id like somebody's advice on how to make this work. Ive only ever played with fairly top-shelf folks before and Im having trouble getting the same notes out of this orchestra.

Your problem is that your party is too large. Seriously. It isn't correctable. I'm sorry. After 4 players people become retarded babbling messes unless you railroad them to oblivion.

A genderless race of angelic beings decides that the common races of women are superior to themselves for child-rearing purpose.

Being that they can, among other things, fly, the lords and masters of the world are powerless to oppose them on a large scale. This is the world that you and your friends are born into. How do you handle this scenario? Remember, failing to leave behind an heir for your dynasty ends the game.

Why is forest exploration so much less interesting than dungeon exploration?

(Pic unrelated)

>>47997433
I've never thought this..
Man in my setting each forest has a few druids in it that are charged with protecting the forest. Some are fucked up, some travel solo, others are whole groups of druids keeping the forest in line. It turns each forest into a little adventure if they've somehow pissed off the local druid tribe or seek them out for help or aid.
>>
>>47997433
It's not, it's just less common because dungeons are half of the name of one of the most well-known RPGs out there.
>>
OP again.

I've been thinking...

How would one implement random forest generation with the same level of detail as the random dungeon generation in the AD&D Dungeon Master's Guide?

Instead of rolling for shape/size of rooms and chambers would you roll for size and type of trees? Would you roll that into a more general table for forest landmarks?

So you've got Gondor's soldiers or Saruman's Uruk Hai who are all armed with a standard set of weapons all of the same make and dimensions and uniform. Not very much diversity of force it's almost all just swordmen, spearmen, and archers.

And then you've got Mordor's orcs with all kinds of crazy shit and no two orc having the same kind of sword or armor and everyone generally looking like they either hand crafted or looted what they had. A variety of weapons axes, maces, scimitars, scythes and everything in between and stuff that doesn't even have a name.

Which army is supposed to do better?

Do what better?

The one that knows best how to use their weapons in conjunction with their brothers at arms. A variety of weapons means nothing if the army isn't organized. It might give an advantage in unpredictability, but that's about it.
