How do you make a good bbeg from this idea?

You know why fighter sucks?
Not because linear vs quadratic - D&D is Ivory Tower, so it is understandable that there is a class that has less options, but is easier to play. It's not even magic vs mundane, because this dilemma hurts the system as whole, not just classes.

Fighter sucks because he has no substance, period.

Look at the goddamn name of this class - fighter, a person who fights. Any creature that lives through aggression is a fighter - barbarian is a fighter, even blaster caster is a fighter, they fight for a living after all. I could never understand why such a generic term is applied to a PC class, yet more appropriate "Warrior" is the name of NPC class, which is generic flavor- and crunch- wise. PC class should be a professional combatant, like soldier or mercenary, more to do with a warcraft, not simply a guy who wields a sword.

Same goes for his mechanics. His "menu" is feats, but everyone has those, it's just he can hoard more of them. There is nothing peculiar about this class, he has no rage, no favored enemy. His training bonuses are just that - flat numbers mostly, no interesting tricks or special abilities. Yes, as I said, fighter should be straightforward to play, but it doesn't mean he shouldn't have his own shtick. Something akin to rogue talents, but more combat-oriented, perhaps?

Welcome to the flake thread!

The flake ball, and everyone is pretty. An interesting theory on why the Eldrazi are needed. A new flake or two. Color pie arguments. Again, I want my fucking flake ball party. Multiverse discussion. A new snowplane. Gideon was conquered by a puddle.

it hands you a plant

a small worthless thing that can do nothing on its own

why does this make your heart waver so?

does it remind you of the vengeance that you were robbed of?

or the shame that that which knows no boundaries met upon you that night?

your actions make no sense

This has happened several times
Can anyone recommend some decent podcasts where this doesn't happen?

Way back in MKI, Legend is told of a Podcast Interview that made PP rage so hard that it made them never agree to one again.

Does anyone have this legendary train-wreck podcast?

I need advice on RPing the edgiest possible 2fast4u type rogue character. I've got most the character figured out, but I need to think up some throwaway lines to say like when killing stuff, taking damage, or whatever.

Kindly post anything inspirational you can think of, pic related

Shinobi Quest #11

This quest takes place within the lands of the Five Great Shinobi Nations (aka Narutoverse) starting roughly around the beginning of the original series. The world of this quest remains similar to the original, with slight but notable differences in certain areas, based upon the passage of time from a single slightly altered event.

(It’s a goddamn Naruto Quest, you bastards. Have fun, participate, and write in when you feel inclined. Most of the outcomes of this quest will be determined by you, the players. Critiques and questions are always welcome, as my knowledge of the weeby shit is not all encompassing.)

Last thread, Tsuki Norihime spent some time with her new sensei, Itachi Uchiha, and got poked. We also initiated the timeskip, got some training done, and further developed the Stellar Release.

Your name is Amy Nakamura, a 17 year old void Oni, and you’re about to watch movies with your best friend and your cousin. Of course this is a lot odder than the average movie watching, mostly because your best friend your Lord, and your cousin is a Kitsune child whom you’ve hated until (incredibly) recently. Your life continues to spiral in random directions. You wouldn’t say you dislike it however, on the contrary, it’s been getting pretty…. Fun.

That aside, you and your slumber mates are desperately trying to figure out what to watch. Normally this would be a fairly easy issue to fix buuuut… You have three very different people quarreling about what to watch and the results are pretty far from easy to fix.

“We should watch ‘Zombie werewolves 5’ I heard they got real werewolves for it.” Trish says, testing out her “Lord” voice. It isn’t really working for her.

“Can we like, just watch something funny? Howabout Legally Elf? It’s a classic!” Your cousin adds.

“We need something nice an long, we should wat-“

“If you say Lord of he Rings, I’m slapping you.” Trish interrupts you.

Hmph.

>Lord of the Rings.

>Shitty horror movies.

>Shitty comedies.

Welcome back, space pirates, to the thirtieth installment of Mecha Space Pirate Quest! As always, you are Admiral Roarke S. Starwind of the Iron Kestrels pilot fleet, master of the pirate battleship Rhinehawk (currently being upgraded) and pilot of the Knuckle Kaiser (which currently has its arms full with a very battered S-Flowerhorn whose pilot had some truly awful luck with /tg/'s dice)

Last time, as previously mentioned, Red Siren soundly beat SOUL Squad B's ace, Lt. Alice Clementine Farragut, in a duel. Fortunately, they seem to be reconciling, which is good because you fully intend to sleep with both of them in the next few hours. Yep, it's a good day to be you so far. This whole thing with the dual aces plotting against your mechanic, though, is profoundly worrisome. Poor Karen.
