What do you think its better?

Leave the goblin tribes alone and fight them back whenever they invade. This will, when considering all the casualties on both sides for hundreds or thousands of years to come, lead to maybe millions of deaths

The answer is genocide! The only good goblin is a dead goblin. A few dozen thousands goblins dead and gone. No more problems

Kill the adults, take the children and raise them as members of our society. Will cause lots of problems at first

Throughout the annals of history, legends and tales speak of powerful kings, brave knights and diligent saints; each spawning whimsical and glorious tales of their exploits.
However this tale is not about them. It is about you. The common man. The small-folk. The serfs and slaves. The peasant. You will tame ox and horse not dragons. You will harvest the heads of wheat, not the heads of enemies. You will learn the cycles of the sun and moon, not the cycles of runes and spells. You are the foundation to every great civilization under the sun and maybe through luck or cunning you can aspire to be slightly more. But for now, you are a lowly serf, bond to a single master and the land he owns,

Where is it that you spend your days toiling.
>The crags, mountains and hills of [The Vandervale], known for its vast wealth in precious stones and metals
>The fertile plains of [Ravnony] where the gifts of earth grow bountifully along a calm river.
>The arid savannahs of [Ki'Bodi] whose cattle and elephants graze in vast fields of dry grass.
>The cold reaches of [Norland] where pelts of beasts both grand and small hail from.
>Or rather one of the many island of [Ryloth] making trade in pearls, whale and fish.

Hey /tg/, I need a little help. How do I justify beast races in a campaign setting?

Are they made from half breeds of humans and animals? Creations of Gods or Wizards? How can I justify them? Is it possible to justify monstergirl-esque human hybrids in the same setting or should it just be one or the other?

What would happen if all insects on earth were suddenly possesed by a malevolent consciousness bent on eradicating humanity. Insects gain no new capabilities, nor do they suddenly hivemind, but they do start working together to kill humans, even among species that normally prey on each other. Our insectoid antagonists are no smarter than an ordinary insect and won't be pulling any bullshit like poisoning wells or stealing the launch codes.

Assuming humanity survives, what would earth look like in ten years? Fifty? A century? How would we defend ourselves? How would we win the war? Could we win it?

To balance the scales, what if we make spiders loyal to humans? Protip: Spiders are not insects, but solifugids are not spiders. We'll leave crabs and seagoing arthropods out of the scenario for now.

"Where are we going?"

"To that big castle, in the distance." You point to the peak of the fortress in the distance.

"Really?" The girl riding behind you seems uncertain. "I don't think I'm allowed there. I should really be getting home."

Maybe you should just ride in silence. Every little thing this girl says is like a punch to your sisterly heart.

You are Yuuki Kuchinashi, and the last few days have been depressing from a big-sister standpoint.
Yesterday, you found out the 'princess' of another kingdom may be a victim of longstanding abuse. THEN, the night before, you found out the hero of that kingdom may be mentally scarred and berated every night. This doesn't even count this morning when you had to escort the young Louise to Gallete to help her fight a dragon, something she was expected to do because she's their hero and not because she had any capacity to do it.

Plus, that doesn't even count what you found when you were in Gallete. Namely, a little girl imprisoned in a dungeon who may not have seen the sun before.

A part of you feels that this entire world is made of child abusers. Cody said earlier that you tend to have a cooler head than he does, but that isn't entirely true. If you found even one more abuse: you would grab this girl, Louise, and Kayda and take them back with you to Bruschetta to live like princesses. There is NO WAY you trust leaving any of these young kids with Catland and Bearland at this point. Not with the evidence you have right now.

>Disclaimer: http://pastebin.com/QMSrsbjv

You're at the hospital, at the psych ward. You stared at the bland, heavily peeling walls of your dirty room. They didn't seem to have much of a budget around here.

You shifted and turned up to sit on your bed, and you noticed a small transparent bottle with pills inside. A label had been printed on it.

"Amnesia and Schizophrenia. Identity issues." was the first you noticed on it, along a bunch of chemical names and icons.

A heavy sigh flowed from your mouth.

Your mind was still hazy, except for your more recent memories. Clearly, you could recall how nobody would believe that you were "Malcolm King". A young self-employed man, who dropped out of his IT degree. That was you, right? Your memories were hazy, but you were convinced that this was you.

From the last days, men forcing you to the ward, the trash-flavored meals and the snarky nurses - it was all crisp in your mind. However, anything before this latest week seemed to be covered in mist.

For some reason, everyone thought that you were someone else. Your ID card, government registries and your medical records all had a different name on them as well. Someone you where completely unfamiliar with.

You figured that if you were ever to leave this darned place, you would have to convince the people here that you were "cured", somehow.

Ah... Who were you "supposed" to be, again?

>Occupation

This is probably going to be a bad day, now it may seem like I'm being a bit pessimistic here but well, I like to think I have a sense of this sort of thing now a days.

"You thinking about something Sis?" Katlin asks, looking up at me and drawing me out of my thoughts as we walk along

"How could you guess?" I ask with a smirk as I ruffle her hair

"You always get that kind of angry bored look when you're thinking" She says, pushing my hand off her head with an annoyed look on her face "It's actually really easy to notice"

"Really?" I ask tilting my head, I've never really thought to look at myself while I was thinking so...maybe it is? I mean I've never

"Sorry, it isn't that noticeable" Katlin laughs, as I feel my cheeks turn red as I blush "so don't worry about it...or whatever you were worrying about earlier, okay?"

I nod, and smiles as Katlin turns down the street to her school.

"See you at home, kat" I say, waving once as I keep walking to my constantly destroyed highschool.

I look up at it and tilt my head...actually, how the hell is this place still open, I mean with all the destruction I've and my friends have caused, you'd think people would stop coming but...no, still just continues like usual...its kind of.

I wince, remembering why I thought today would be one of the bad ones.

Elliotte is coming to school and that..well I mean she is trying to get better with the whole, touching people thing and Charlotte did say she was getting better about not breaking into people's personal space...as often, when she came for a bit of a "visit" a day or two ago... since we can't well do it at her place anymore

Mortals. The ever-necessary cog in the wheel that is the Spirit World. Mortals feed the Spirit World with Belief, which turns into Madness and Ectoplasm, the energy source for Spirits like you.

This is where you come in, Spectre, an agent of the Bureau of the Paranormal. Your job is to keep the mortals feeding the Spirit World, while also cleaning up the various supernatural messes that occur.

As a being of pure ectoplasm, you were never part of the Material World, and so you cannot manifest directly without using a tremendous amount of energy. Often times this would use more energy than it gained, which is bad for business.

This is why The Bureau of the Paranormal has assigned you Haunters, ghosts and entities more easily accessible to the Material Plane. Its your job to use these Haunters to gather belief while keeping certain mortals in the dark about your existence. It wouldn't do well to bring a horde of Ghost Busters or Psychic Mediums to hunt you and put you all in jars.

You currently have five Haunters at your disposal. Their dossiers can be found here:

And as always, what's a good haunting without proper music?

Welcome, Spectre, to Ghost Master Quest.
