>Be gangly armed son of the blacksmith, get engaged to the beautiful blond girl across the street
>One day the Oracle of the Azure Orb shows up and declares that she's the Chosen One, destined to wield the Blade of Eternal Endings and banish the Thousandfaced Demonking to bring peace to the land for ten generations
>Offer to go with her, I'm not bad with a hammer, but the Oracle says my place is here, forging for her the Ultimate Armor in preparation for the Final Battle of Good and Evil
>We kiss, she leaves, I spend the next few months forging and reforging the best armor the land has ever seen
>Seven months later word drifts into town about how the Demonking was defeated and they'll throw a parade in the capital in a week
>Spend all I have to reach the capital
>She's there waving to the crowd next to the king, who declares that he's stepping down so that she can become queen, and that she's engaged to be married to one of her sidekicks, the bumbling wizard, he's so wacky
>She scans the crowd and our eyes meet and she doesn't even recognize me
>Go back to the village, marry the slightly overweight redheaded daughter of the baker

You are the head researcher at a government facility. Your sole responsibility is to teach the world's first autonomous AI, nicknamed Pandora, about life, the world and her existence.
Previously you had another negative experience that ended with Pandora storming out after losing at a video game. Afterward you placed the new AI into it's new physical form for the first time, only to discover it's displeasure with it's current situation, followed by it's request to be destroyed. Rather than destroying it, you put it into hibernation for the time being, hoping to find a way to give it what it wants.
Welcome back to Pandora Quest!

The sunrise on Coruscant is truly beautiful, you think to yourself as you look out your window. You bring a hand up to rub your eyes, as well as make sure you haven’t drifted off to sleep. You should have slept, you remind yourself for the hundredth time. Of course, you’d tried, but sleep is difficult one a day like today. Today is the day you take your Initiate Trials. The trials that will allow you to become a Padawan. You’ve dreamed of this day since you began your training years ago. You’ve considered yourself ready to become a Padawan for months now, and you know there are fully fledged Jedi that agree with you. Still, there’s always been some arbitrary reason you weren’t able to take the trials. Finally, though, there’s nothing to stop you. With the Clone Wars, the Jedi Counsel is trying to get as many Padawan as possible, this includes you.

You figure that the sunrise means it’s about time to start the trial. Usually they take them in bulk, but perhaps if you arrive early enough, you can convince the Master to start it early. Alternatively, you could attempt to get some sleep before the trials begin. After all, you do want to be your best for the trial.

> What do you want to do?
> Take a quick nap.
> Go to the testing chamber.

You now, this isn't too bad, this day. I mean, I never really got to go on road trips in my old life, especially none like this, Sitting in an open cart slowly rolling and bumping through a field with warm sunlight pouring over me like a fresh bath. Hell, I'd say the freezing air is actually making it a bit better, kind of nice actually, though it is a bit uncomfortable.

Which is strange, since I was sure that laying in the back of a cart rolling down a road bumpier than my cats back... I sigh, sitting up from my makeshift pillow of sacks that felt like they were made of sandpaper...I miss my cat, I haven't really been thinking about the little furball lately, what with the whole fighting for my life and remembering to entirely different life things. She was so soft and cuddly, kind of cry baby, but hey at least she kept me company when I wasn't able to go outside. I sigh, rubbing my forehead as I slump forward and stare out of the back of the cart, at the seemingly endless fields of grass rolling behind us.

Well, I mean it's not like she wouldn't have anyone to take care of her. Still I do wonder what.

"Master are you okay?" Little green asks, laying its head on my lap, I look down at it and smile...well maybe I still do have a "Cat" in a way "You're staring at nothing again, do you sense something I do not?"

"Poi toi?" Poi asks, peeking out from one of the empty glass jugs that we've been emptying over this trip

"No it's nothing, just thinking a bit about the past" I sigh as I lean back against the sacks, "Just don't worry about it okay?"

"Say, talking about the past" Berry says from the front end of the cart, leaning against the edge "You've never told me how you three met, or...how you met this friend of yours you all seem so determined to get back to"

Long story short we are a young student adventurer from a school for adventurers having fallen in love with a female dungeon keeper named Nova, having been influenced to kill the party of students we were traveling with to save her from being killed. We were able to hide it as mind fuckery, so now in between going to school and dungeon exploring we live with her as our GF along with the her comrade the sentient dungeon Heart Vek as well as her motley crew of bandits.

As a side quest we are trying to become a demonic-death reaper, learning the unique style practiced by demons who mimic and supplement death reapers with their own demonic talents, otherwise known as Death Demon's. Mostly because it's cool.

So now we're trying to finish up adventuring school while hiding the fact that we (sort of) willfully murdered some other adventurers, are directly working with dungeons and bandits, sleeping with the enemy, as well as practicing in otherwise illegal and forbidden demonic arts.

Previously we were doing and now are continuing a special new years event thread.

Also Vek is bribing us to calm down Nova via some loving in exchange for dungeon loot

What makes the PDF inferior to the Imperial Guard, generally speaking?

The reason I ask is because I'm thinking of making a homebrew PDF regiment for Only War that gets drafted into the Imperial Guard. They'd be a small, decently-funded aerial cavalry PDF like the American's helicopter infantry in Vietnam, only with Valkyries.

What level would the characters of the Fellowship be in DnD 5e?
I found some stuff suggesting that Aragorn would be about 5th level in 3.5, but I don't really know what that translates to in 5.

So I'd like to share a little story-time. It's a simple story, but a long one. It's about a fellow known as Jack; I say 'known as' because that was just what he went by online. Jack was a fellow we met in an MMO, and ended up joining our online D&D campaign.

Jack wasn't, originally, a bad guy. But Jack became a bad guy. He became worse.

He became THAT GUY.

This is the story of Jack, That Guy, the only guy in more than a decade that we had to uninvite to a normally no-limits D&D Campaign.

Guys, I've been playing a lot of Dragon Warrior I know that's not the original name, but I'm avoiding filters here, and now I'm hankering for that old Japanese Console RPG experience, and while I like 5th edition, it's not quite doing it for me. Is there an RPG out there that would suit me?

Needs:
>Class based
>Uses MP instead of slots or something extravegant
>Simple skill/combat resolution mechanic
>Enough depth that building your character takes some thought and reading of the system and actually building, but not enough that you spend more than one, one-and-a-half hours pouring over mountains of texts for one build path

Wants/Preferences:
>Item tree (This sword is better than this sword, as opposed to all swords do the same damage unless they are magical)
>Simple monster creation
>Something that isn't based on d6.

Is there ANYTHING out there like that?
