Though the Empire does make things a little harder on Samson's precious little life, as does the fact that everything his family didn't bring with them had been pilfered from the house they now share with five more people than once before, things do return to some sense of normalcy as he pretends to be back to living his civilian scholarly life, often singing and gathering information in taverns with Millicent's help. Imperial soldiers expect to be shipped back East to deal with rebels, and from there the plan will begin.

Speaking of these more organized rebels, Dyrus and the rest of his gang sail towards Darton, still heavy of heart at the utterly preventable loss of Gerard, but coping nonetheless. They're certain he wouldn't want them to dwell on that sort of thing. Winona and Belle have taken to speaking more, filling the hole in the purple-headed flier's conversational quota, though she doesn't seem terribly pleased with the girl's insistence that she'd seen her somewhere before they met... Dyrus, meanwhile, is just excited to give Director Waldrick what-for! He won't let any more of his friends fall to the forces of evil like Augustus or Gerard!

In Arsiv Oasis, specifically the Tower of Longevity, Rene, Veiz, and the rest of the gang study between Vautou-repelling missions. Veiz is taking to dark magic quite well, though still refusing to actually break it out until she considers herself sufficiently skilled enough in both bow and book. Stories of the Resistance rallying support along the coastline have reached Director Waldrick's daughters, especially since he's to be personally handling the reins of a planned siege on Darton once the rebels arrive there, but it does not concern Rene or Veiz. It's not as though their father would ever lose to such people.

>A. Be Rene

>C. Be Samson

The fae in my game never stop going on about free will. Even the evil ones usually dont attack the characters, they just accuse them of "following plans" and "only doing what others tell them to" then they give them quests, which afterwards they berate them for doing as "soulless lackeys so far devoid of creativity or the self they can only be called pale mimics of life".

Curious, is vitalist a good class, was working on a mute healer monk type person (not a monk, just monastic-like) and I was debating heals or psywar

The candles laid about the small circular room flickered on an impossible wind, as five other men and women turned towards the man, who's skull like face almost seemed to glow in the weak fire light.

"Ooooh it's making my bones tingle, and my teeth rattle, I can barely contain my excitement and jooooy" He shout happily, holding his hands together as if in prayer, before a figure wearing a dark, almost black, purple robe walked up behind him.

And with a sound like bark breaking and bending, rose her hand, smacking him to the floor with a loud, almost whip like crack.

"Silence fool" She growled, roots and branches retreating back into her oversized sleeves "We still have work to do if we want to make our dead line, just because we've gathered the Sin already doesn't mean we can celebrate already, the sacrifice must be made with out interruption if we're to finish this, before SHE gets here"

The man whimpered on the floor, his companions giggling and laughing at his misfortune as the leader of the coven glared at them with eyes made of glowing amber

"Oh, you think it's funny? if we're even a second late in completing this ritual, the brausr will rip us to pieces so tiny, there won't even be enough of us left to fill a thimble" The Woman, if you could call it such, growled angrily, roots creeping out from the bottom of her robes "Now return to your spots on the markers so we can finish this already...please tell me you've at least gotten the sacrifice ready?"

"Oh..oh yes We have ehehe" the whimpish man in green giggled madly, nodding as he walked away, half hunched over.

[]An innocent, if slightly strong headed girl, Her family sold her to be able to feed their other children *You're female. +1 Potential*
[]A boy turned in by the police for an unspoken crime, doesn't know what's going on and is scared witless *You're Male +1 Willpower*
[]A variety of people, beasts and monsters *It switches, as your "Soul" is patchwork at the best of times, +1 guile, but you're a little "off"*
.


Strength = how strong and mighty you are.
Agility = Nimblness/ speed/ dexterity.
Resilience = How much of a beating you can take, and general defensive ability
Willpower = the force of your will

Potential= Magical power, how strong your Magic is, and also the width of what you can do with it.
Potential also effects your supernatural abilites, Any demon worth their snuff should have a few points in this at the very least,
however with sin abilities *supernatural abilites unique to your chosen sin*, you can use the sins' favoured stat in place of it

Guile = How easy it is for you to come up with solutions/ figure things things out
Senses= How honed and sharpened your various senses are

Also thinking up a system to reward fan art....maybe, who knows

Jumpers, will you sing God's eternal praise?

If not, would you host a demon in yourself?

>>46774140
I uhh went adversary in the actraiser jump kind of made for an akward time every time we had a birthday party.

>>46774140
Yes and yes for fun and profit.

Huge arcologies that are basically an entire city in one building.

When you need to fight inside one of those then small mechs or power armour become useful.

>>46773797
It's not the technology, it's the usage.
You unfortunately used the word "realistic" which means that you won't be able to have mechs. You've seen the arguments so many times that I won't rehash them here, but on the modern and future battlefield mechs are an idea that won't work. Mechs =/= realism.

In a support role they might work for cargo lifting and logistics, but combat, no.

Viable mechanical legs.

Wheels work better, hold more weight, and are way cheaper.

All hail the lich-king!

What? I'm totally not one of his warlocks, I swear

>crossbow rolls to hit at disadvantage if the target is immediately infront of your loaded bolt
>crossbow rolls to hit straight if the target is 60 feet away

Explain this shit.

>>46773546
I have a question that may be related to this premise: Where do people living in Castle Ravenloft before all the Dark Powers nonsense do their business? Did they just dump the contents of their chamber pots off the cliff, raining crap and piss onto the quaint village of Barovia from 1000'?

>>46773221
I don't have an answer to your question, but that's a good first pic. It's funny Are Middle-Eastern settings rare? I've played in a few

>>46773221
There aren't too many middle-easterners writing for RPGs. They're either from the UK or North America, and they don't have much, if any, experience with those sorts of cultures, mythology, tropes, etc. They write what they know.

>>46773221
Just with D&D you have
>Forgotten Realms had no less than 3: Anauroch, Al Qadim, the Mulhorand-Thay-Rashemen region
>Most elements of Darksun are a mix of that and mesoamerica
- One of the old historical sourcebooks was the crusades
- Birthright had Khinasi

Status report:
The Pajit have regrouped their remaining warships off Kayans. Their land forces have launched offensives against us on various fronts - Bridgemark, Tarasil, Pirusat, Cloudgazer, Jamatun and the Krushid desert.
We have 5 armies and the fleet at our disposal to match the enemy. Every border region has raised its militia forces and is ready to defend against the enemy, but a dedicated assault by a professional army is likely to overwhelm the local defenders sooner or later.
Our allies are still preparing their forces, but the Sigbru have raised a large army in a critical position, ready to fight.
Valaster's army:20k pros,30k militia
Tripaneus:26 kpros 6k militia
Yolten:30k pros,30k militia
Luffer:24k pros 22k militia
Sigbru army:50k warriors(armed with mostly modern tech)
High Admiral's fleet: 13 Ships of the Line, 7 frigates
Now's our turn, draw up plans of action!

>So I have an idea for a role playing game based on the idea of cults
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kult_%28role-playing_game%29

>>46770366
Well OP, the first thing you need to do is read the rules to at least 50 unrelated RPG systems. Let us know when you get done with that, and give us the full list.

>>46770366
The only people who write new systems are the ones who don't know what already exists. Games have become a complex subject. You don't reinvent the wheel, you mix dynamics you like and invent mechanics that resolve them fast and seamlessly. Reinventing DnD is the mark of a nub who is wasting everyone's time.

The only reason to start from scratch is extreme minimalism, like in one page games. And those must focus on a specific thing. See Viral's games.

Do you use animating intelligences and if so, how?

Ex 3 core book – From RichT: PoD and PDFs on sale to the public this Wednesday, backers will get the discounted PoD links before that. Now on to prepping the actual deluxe traditionally printed files.

What are the changes you're most hoping for for the final release? No absurd wish-listing like 'completely changed craft' or 'no natural languages'. Realistic stuff.

Probably won't even play the game, but gimme some souls minis for sure

I'm expecting something like The Dark Eye - convoluted shit by people who think they like crunch but don't understand game design.

>>46769348
Oh hell yes. It'll be worth it just for the sweet minis alone. The biggie and smalls figurines already got me excited

>>46768982
Rules Encyclopedia.

All rules are optional and there are plenty if you feel like it.

>>46769003
Almost unquestionably the best (only?) 1-book solution to D&D. I can see why, from a business perspective, they stopped doing that.

5e is my favorite because it is simple enough to get my normie friends to sit down and play it

Otherwise they spend the entire session making character sheets

>>46767398
Ah yes, 8The ever creative name of iranistan.

>>46767428
It's probably supposed to actually be Iran.

>>46767398
Explain to me the appeal of this setting.
