Keeping that disguise up is going to be a pretty epic feat.

You better have a plan for what to do someone notices.

First off, how is he going to keep the PCs from figuring it out? They know the rogue, which should give them a boost in seeing through his disguise, and that check will be made several times a day for each party member.

The only practical solution I can see is a long-term polymorph of some sort, which actually solves your other problem: you can generate an entirely new character sheet for the fighter form, maybe giving him a few hidden skills and abilities to represent some of his Rogue Skills.

>>46265767
He'll need a mask. One obviously meant to be permanent. Like the iron mask in Count of Monte Cristo, perhaps. Maybe his 'new' character could have a similar 'backstory', where he can't remove the mask because of a curse or geas. The mask might be able to change what his voice sounds like enough to disguise that, or he might need it enchanted. His habits and body language, however, really need to change and that'd be REALLY hard. Have him make Will/Wisdom saves to avoid giving himself away by force of habit if the player can't correctly RP it.

There's the Dagger and Coin series by Daniel Abraham.

Ringworld by Larry Niven gets into it in an interesting way. Instead of fixating on what the humans think of the aliums, sometimes the aliums will be surprised or interested or whatever about something weird that the humans did. One example that springs to mind is when the warrior alien is shocked and kind of impressed by a human climbing up some precarious thing. The warrior race guy is part of a species not descended from apes, and doing something like that is unthinkable for him.

Why is the gnome trying to magic away the half-orcs penis?

no and no

Just play Pokemon with all the images replaced with Fire Emblem characters.

Pretty much everything. 3.x is the worst edition of D&D.

Nothing.

>and 5th edition

It's oversimplified. Whether it is a good thing or bad thing I'll leave up to you.

>too much
>not worth it

War elephants in history were good for a couple of battles against enemies who had never fought them before. Hannibal was able to push in the Roman's shit with them once or twice before they figured out how to deal with them.

Plus, they use up way too much fodder, and outside of their natural habitat, their health is marginal at best.

>>46265302
>Would be worth it or not
only against enemies that have no experience in fighting war elephants

>>46265302
They will dine upon the crops and forests of hated Gondor and its cowardly vassals!

They will strike fear into the hearts of the Northern Kings as they trample their subjects into the dust!

>>46265220
That sounds horrendously bad.

Wut

I guess there are a lot of commies on here who are fine with this then?!

>>46265622

Communism is cool, man, just chill out. Have a joint and read some Mao.

>>46265639
Mao was a killer. Hayek is my man. I'll never play as the USSR in Twilight Struggle no matter how badly the game is skewed against me. It would be positively immoral.

>>46264682
You've got my attention OP.

Last I remember you guys had just gotten recruited by the Inquisitor for a mystical quest or some shit after kicking a bunch of ork ass.

Our story so far, up to session 3:

Session 4:

Picking up immediately from where we left off, we'd found a Knight-sized power sword held by a statue in an artificial lake, in an ancient treasure vault held by filthy pirates. We claimed the treasure and the sword, and a brief but fierce argument about who should have the holy blade was settled when the Magos-Explorator informed us that we were all being fucking dipshits and that the sword would choose its wielder.
Nika bowed out, due to being the ranged Knight, and that left myself and Morgaine. Things were settled by a quick roll-off in the interests of speed and fairness, and Maksimov happened to roll the highest, and traded out one of his gauntlets for the sanctified blade. We retired to our rooms to prepare for combat and pray, with Maksimov sealing his private chambers to meditate on the Emperor and his House's holy grudges. He also had the name of the blade revealed to him in his meditations, the holy blade Galatine.

This was rudely interrupted by Tertius, the oily servant, informing us that our presence was requested on the Prydwen's bridge. The news was grim, a warp signature on system edge had been detected, presumably the pirates coming back to reclaim their station, corroborated by the fact that no ships had actually been detected entering the system. The obvious conclusion was that they were using stealth systems to sneak up on us. Our obvious plan, to hit the planet and retrieve the next starmap using the Caliburn Tacitus, was unfortunately derailed by a further interruption.

Out of fucking nowhere, a howling gale ripped through the bridge, throwing papers everywhere as every skull on the bridge screamed in utter horror. Words appeared in thin air, carved from flame by an invisible hand, "Mene mene tekel upharsin". Everyone present had to immediately roll against Fear 1.

>>46264234

Explosive.

>>46264234
do some research on Zoroastrianism and Manichaeism. Wikipedia is as good a place to start as any.
Figure it out from there.

>>46264234
Pre-Islamic Middle East/Persia was a pretty based place, aside from the slavery, which was a thing everywhere. And also different from the modern concept of slavery. Still.

Yeah, the Mongol's and later Islam basically shittified the middle east something fierce. Not even being /pol/ here, all down hill after Saladin

bumping with spoop art, as I'm a desperate ho.

(Also feel free to weigh in with spoopy dark fairytale art, as that shit is boss)

>what critter in Theah would be that intelligent
Kobolds? They're intelligent, they're from Eisen and they're assholes in general.

Also, are you planning to use 1e or 2e?

>>46262232
I gotta say, storm trooper helmets on SM armor looks pretty good.

The merging of the termie helmet and Vader's is well done as well.

>>46262232
I'll get us started.

Imperial guard faction or humans with a psyker leader that marched on a temple full of chaos worshiping psykers.

Theses humans were found to be pure in the eyes of the emperor and were converted into adult human space marines as a result of this they are smaller than your normal space marine.

They use a mixture of terminator and space marine armor that gives them the necessary mass to fight in hand to hand combat with other space marines or chaos space marines.

FYI, Theses events happen during M31.

What do you think?

>>46262232
Man that dreadnought looks like something you would sit in.

Like an actual ATST

Lost kid's always a good one, could make it combat, could make it investigation depending on how the party wants it.

>>46262113
Do you want plot ideas or module names?

>>46262182
Plot ideas please. I have a bunch of modules stocked up. They are all just pretty "too heroic".
