The war is over, the undead legions victorious. There is no birdsong or wildlife to be found in the forests, only twisted dead trees and barren soil. The hustle and bustle of industrious, wealthy cities is now just ghouls, skeletons and reventants wandering the draughty, empty streets.

Where the living had purpose in their lives, the undead have none. They do not eat or drink, they have no promise of afterlife. They cannot even indulge in pleasures of the flesh or mind-altering substances.
So what do they do now? They find what little meaning they can in their unending existence.

The undead squatters of Necropolis hoard treasure and wager it in games of chance back and forth endlessly. From the lowliest skellingtons playing liar's dice for pieces of copper to powerful liches swapping vaults full of gold, jewels and priceless magical artifacts over games of Texas hold 'em in conquered wizard's towers, gambling addiction has become a way of unlife to the inheritors of the city's ruins.

How pink is your mohawk, /srg/?

Hrm. Did we ever get an official decision on how biocompatibility is supposed to work with Used cyberware? Is it supposed to be 1.1 or 1.15?

>Bitching about ammo edition

Gel for nonlethal, APDS for when not. Regular shot for for suppressive fire, otherwise it gets really expensive. All the rest is for tryhards trying to be "cool", "original" or other nonsense. Okay, tracer ammo for suppressive fire because it's effective and a beautiful spectacle in the darkness, but my credstick hurts simply thinking about it.

I had a healthy relationship with my father that I have maintained over the years to the current day

How do you play haibane Renmei game, anywa? Refluffed Golden Sky Stories? FATE?
I just want cute angels doing cute things

>>46626273
>Refluffed Golden Sky Stories
probably steal their resolution and replace henge with toga or something. I'm pretty sure they don't have powers, though, so have something else which uses wonder. also a meter which tics toward the day of flight, based off the total amount of feelings the PCs recieved. everything else is the same, aside from setting, of course.

I don't know any setting where elves don't have problem reproducing. They're always depicted as being near extinct, with each elf dying being a crippling blow to their entire race.

Fae as popular understanding and compilation is a result of 17th century onwards attempts to bring local folk tales and remnants of native religions into various digestible published forms. Quite a few as we understand them today were solidified in poetry and stage plays, and the 'source' materials/tales for all but the most popular are nearly impossible to find if not completely out of any record and long out of living memory.

So the term 'fae' is either best used for gaelic mythologies with some very specific characters and archetypes or as a broad term for 'largely unrelated folklore creatures from northern europe.'

There's such a great deal of variance it is an almost impossible distinction to make, let alone when you try and hammer a square peg into a round hole by involving entirely other cultural mythologies that are more codified and structured.

Oh yeah and the iron thing is because of industry > monsters, with some ties to Christianity and blacksmiths having powers to combat the devil by various traditions.

What is a fae? Whatever the narrative dictates.

Lets start with origins. Notice I posted a cyclops in the OP.

Folklore gives many explanations for the origins of fae. The most common seems to be "they're ghosts" or "spirits". Except it would be kind of lame to classify them all as undead. Another explanation is that they're demons from hell. Well, that's also lame. Druidic animus nature spirits? Well, that's getting close to something more like an elemental. Treants and dryads and such are sometimes associated with fae, but there are also fae legends (particularly if you include Asian mythology) which clearly have nothing to do with nature. So that doesn't quite work for me either.

So here's the one that stood out. Fae are neutral angels. Those who wanted no part in the rebellion against heaven, but also did not want to fight against it. Now they're stuck in the twilight- rejected by both light and darkness.

Twilight. Yes. That fits Fae to me. And in Greek mythology, during war between titans and Olympians, the cyclops were a third faction. Once servants to titans, then imprisoned by them, then liberated by the Olympians, but still not one of them. They are a neutral faction. As are the hecatonchieres.

And in Asia, the celestial bureaucracy routinely rejected spirits who wished to become gods. But perhaps they did not wish to serve in DiYu either. So they just roam the world, doing their own thing. Yaoguai means "freakish spirit". Freak. Reject. Something strange.

So, here's something I'm still puzzled about... does a neutral angel (or, to use a gnostic neutral term that isn't judeo-christian centered, "archon") have a soul?

>>46625839
The way I classified fae in my setting is that they're essentially halfway between spirits and mortals. They have physical bodies, unlike spirits, but they're have innate magical abilities, various supernatural traits, and are either immortal or extremely long lived.

Here's a better pic.

Garrosh and Garithos should return as Death Knights and team up too stop the race mixing before it's too late.

We're not using a system with item durability, how did that even happen?

>Seeing your form looming over her, she draws a few agonizing breaths and tries to slowly crawl away from you, leaving a trail of blood on the ground.
>She stops after a few seconds, exhausted and babbling deliriously.
>With no strength to fight you, you have little trouble turning her over onto her back.
>Her body has been sadistically abused and is riddled with gashes and bruises.
>Her eyes are swollen to the point of near blindness.
>She fruitlessly swipes at the air, desperate to keep you away as she continues to sputter out nonsense and occasionally cough up blood.
>Tears well up in her eyes as her arms begin to drop down back to her body. Her breaths become more and more laborious.
>Completely drained, she lies on the ground, sobbing to herself.
>She’s clearly been subjected to this trauma for some time and her injuries have become so severe it’s unlikely that she’ll survive the next hour.
>But still she is a Drow, a race that delights in the slaughter of others and has never been known to grant mercy.
>As a knight devoted to justice and all that is good, do you leave her where she lies, do you end her suffering quickly, or do you try and show her some compassion in her final moments and comfort her as she passes away?
