Explain cheap poorly-written romance novel logic.

>>47489294
Imagine generic hentai plot minus the hentai.

Go to fanfiction.net and do a search by tags fantasy+romance.

Justification is pretty subjective.

Look at real life "X" Power groups; "unjustified "from an outsider's perspective, but often emerge from a situation with a lot more grey areas than most are willing to admit.

Say the local Orc gang is robbing poorer humans who have to live on the wrong side of town, and a subset of the humans mob up and start beating and lynching Orcs.

This can be "Justified" from a human perspective, because the Orcs are an intractable criminal menace but as far as the Orcs are concerned; presumably prioritizing the value of an Orc's life over the change purses of a few poncy humans, would consider it unjustifiable.

The broader society's views on such occurrences are by and large irrelevant, as they are not affected by any of the factors of the feud, but they will insist on passing their flaccid judgement either way.

>>47489023
It tries to frame them as that because they are.

Humanis is not above poisoning large sections of the population to kill off metas and justifies it by saying some of the humans might survive.

They shoot meta babies, bomb meta friendly schools and assassinate meta politicians. They brain wash troll and orc children, wage media and propaganda campaigns to divide humanity and will hire runners to take out any who might oppose them.

They are fucking terrorist in the setting, it is what they were designed for and do.

Their arguments might make sense, but their methods are usually what make them into villains.

For example, Humanis and other human supremacist groups are linked to events like the Night of Rage where metas were forced into buildings that were then blocked up and burned down. Elves might be taking all muh jobs, but their approach to fixing that tends to be causing a much greater amount of harm than that.

This all of course depends on your view of society and politics in the real world, since they are very clearly meant to be comparable to racial supremacy groups in the real world.

Don't worry, most people who spent here years understand jack shit about traditional games as well.

1d4chan.org may clarify some things.

>>47488840
Thanks anon.

First I suggest you pick a game and find some folks to play with. Experience the hobby before you hear a bunch of people shit all over it on the internet.

And if you are trying RPG's there are other games than D&D, some of them might even be a better match for you. It's not a bad game, but it's far from the only game.

What edition?

What ever is the new one or most commonly played one currently

What would be the cheapest way to proxy up this deck? Doesn't need to fool anyone, I just like having nice proxies over an island and a piece of paper.

>>47488365
At the rate this beautiful Chinaman improves his product, I think we are 1 year away from needing a loupe to distinguish his cards from real ones. Some fake are so close that you need to put a real one beside it to tell them apart.

>>47488365
Bought one lot once and the cards were very easy to distinguish as fakes.

Are there any good vendors out there for proxies that won't get me caught?

Oh god I can't. I've written so much post-game fan fiction about them and that group. THEY CAN NEVER KNOW.

A 6'5" Half Orc Fighter. He had a short temper and was a brutal fighter.
Every time the party would reach a new culture or city, he would search the market for, or commission a merchant to make, a trinket or keepsake that he would bring back to his wife and two children so they could see all places he had traveled.
He would also occasionally make terrible dad jokes and be furious when no one laughed.

I really want to bring him back at some point. He was so fun to play.

It's like you've never played a Paladin before.

The exact same thing happened to Perseus. Just go kill some snake chick with a paralyzing gaze and give it to him as a wedding gift.

>>47487835
Isn't that the context of eberron?

>>47490118
Never heard of it.

>>47487410
IIRC White Scars do that. Red Scorpions probably mix chaplains with apothecaries.

>>47487433
what are they called?

>>47487505
Stormseers or Stormlords, something like that

"I think I'm coming down with something. Do I have some swelling on my right cheek? Does it look bad?"

>>47487547
Looks fine. Barely noticeable.

Let me introduce you to the concept of barrel length.

>>47486998

Create a field of fast-time and slow-time.

>>47487023
How would that work exactly?

My original idea was to allow the character to erase small portions of time in order to avoid life-threatening events, much like king crimson from jojo - with a stamina limit, of course, and no precognition, so using that power would require educated guessing. What do you think?

I'm interested as well.

A troglodyte.

>>47486773
I often wonder how Troglodytes became stinky lizard people.

When I think "Troglodyte" I imagine a cave-dwelling relict humanoid like a Morlock.

Why would CN care more about money than people?

Leaving people to die because you won't get paid is an evil act, anon

Half-Lives. Doomed to short lives, Half-Lives are always in need of breeding stock. Almost half don’t make it past youth, and any that do live absolutely no longer than 40. Riddled with obvious tumours and other disfigurements, they could pass for healthy if they covered up but the coughing is always going to give them away.

Ok, so we are half-lifes. Next roll!
