How much do you know about theoretical physiology, /tg/?
I need a scientific explanation why all the denizens of a specific fictional planet would be albino in appearance. We're talking pale skin, white hair, white eyelashes, possibly pink/red eyes. Health detriments optional.

Bonus points if you can tie it in to the nature of the planet's moon in any way. And no magic! Otherwise, have a field day.

This.

A dying sun with weakening light.

Any pigmentation getting in the way stops all that delicious sunlight that your body needs.

The albino gene or broken colouration gene is now a survival trait.

Small suns do not die quick. Many, many generations later and you have a planet of pale people.

Is it possible for Chaos to taint Tyranids. And I mean fuck up whole hive mind level taint.
Don't think there is such a case in Canon but I come from the fact that every Nid contributes to the Hive mind as much as it is effected by it.
There were cases of single Tyranid organisms to get mutated by chaos, just like any other animal. Let's say they bring the taint back, the Hive mind would try to expose it like an infection, but let's say taint progresses subtle. How far you guys think it would reach?

If it got into a Norn Queen and by extension the entire bioship it would have the potential to escalate indefinitely. Just like the Tyranids themselves have the ability to spread indefinitely.

It helps if the corrupt bioship is isolated from the rest of the hive-fleet because if the rest of the fleet detected something like that happening they would annihilate it.

The Tyrannid ability to mutate at will would be the greatest advantage to Chaos-Nids.
>>
>>44303553
But what I meant is how fine is the sensing capacity of the Nids.
What if the whole ship got a latent taint. Something like a suggestion planted into the collective psyche, just like any reasoning or observation made by an expeditory hive fleet, and then it would just go past undetected into the bigger Hive Fleet rendering it practically insane.

In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium there is only war. Imperium of Man, once strong and proud, now is slowly crumbling, whole regions of space are lost to the horrors that lurk in the darkness of the void. Sector Deus is just one of the thousands of Imperial provinces that form the front line in the war to defend Humanity itself. Corruption from within and aggression from without threaten it. But the Emperor sends us hope. High Lords of Terra commissioned a Chapter of Adeptus Astartes, finest warriors Humanity has ever seen, to defend this region of space. They are the last line of defence that hold Age of Ruin at bay. They are the Ghosts of Retribution and this is their tale.

You are Tsukuda Ryouta, a Shinigami of the 12th Division, and an investigator of abnormal occurrences.

Your next mission will be to investigate the disappearances of several Shinigami in New York City. You've arrived for your solo briefing, conducted by the Captain of the Division himself. The location isn't his office, but as always, the Spiritual Wave Measurement Lab.

"Ah, here you are, Ryouta-kun. I hope you've rested well!" He begins with a friendly smile and a casual greeting. "This mission might be a bit of a pain..."

The assistant researcher in the room changes the displays to show what must be a map of the city in question. Chunks of the map are outlined with green circles, inside of which are lines and blinking dots slowly tracing along them. Must be the patrol routes of the Shinigami currently deployed there.

"New York is a big place, so it isn't managed by a single Shinigami. The city is split into much smaller areas, with each one managed by a separate Shinigami. Because the city is densely populated and death rates are high, the Shinigami assigned to those areas are more skilled than average. If you ever feel like you're about to go up against something you can't handle on your own, feel free to make contact with one of them and ask for help." Urahara looks over to the assistant. "Rin?"

With the press of a few buttons, the display zooms in on a specific portion of the map that lacks the blinking green dot present in the other marked areas.

"This is where you'll be deployed, Ryouta-kun. As you can see, there are three other areas of deployment very close to yours. Meeting those specific individuals won't jeopardize your assigned area for long, and since they'll be following their patrol routes, you don't need to do much more than wait for them to pass by you. Of course, the map will be uploaded to your cellphone." Urahara smiles a bit. "All of the Shinigami have been outfitted with the Denreishinki, so communications should be quick and easy... if they want them to be that way. They'll be aware of any active Hollow in the area near their own, specifically meaning yours, but they're still not obligated to help you even if you ask them very nicely, so if you can't make sure that they can be relied on, don't bother calling them and focus on survival instead."

You nod. The Captain continues.

"You'll also have the locations of where our radars last picked up the missing Shinigami. Well, I'm still using the word 'missing', but it's fairly safe to assume that they're dead - all that was found in those locations was their blood. The persistent lack of any bodies or traces of such is a likely indication that they were eaten by a Hollow. Whether it's a lone predator having learned a few fancy tricks or just a series of unfortunate coincidences... well, that's for you to find out." Urahara explains, and then goes silent for a while.

"...Make sure to exercise caution. Stay hidden, and try not to take any risks. Even though the Hollow seems capable of hiding itself, it's still very unlikely that it can detect you. Do you have any questions, Ryouta-kun?"

When Shadowrun was translated for the Japanese audience, they took a few liberties with the presentation of Japan. Namely, they didn't make Japan appear nearly as racist and xenophobic as they do in the original material. Naturally, there's more of a focus on Japanese hotspots, but the main change was basically making the country more inclusive to the various races.

Guys I need help, my commissar shot our Colonel and we don't have any attack orders.
The Orks are swarming us and our

Lord-General promised the Astartes that we'd have this place clean of orks by the next day.

But now they're swarming us because our Commissar also decided to shoot out our Vox-radios to, so we could be more "Self-reliant".

Someone in the Imperium please help m- Oh god he just shot our Lord-General.
What are we going to do?

It's more MMO than D&D.
If you want D&D, then you should be watching Record of Lodoss War or Slayers.

That said, some things that are explained in the Light Novels are not explained in the anime; most importantly that the MC's build is an RP-build going for a specific theme. While he has a lot of theoretical knowledge on playstyles, and he took part in guild raids, his build is not optimized for either PVE or PVP, so he can actually be said to be one of the weakest members of the guild. This is one of the fears that he has, that a rebellion by the NPC's would actually succeed against him, if they realized that he's actually weaker than the NPC's optimized to fight against entire other guilds of players.

>>44294918
I like it. Light Novel is better of course, but the Chinese cartoon was decent.

>>44295177
Well, except for the entire spell system which is lifted from 3.5 with very few changes. The leveling system has a loose 3.5 feel.

I also lime to joke that the MMO anime are just ripoffs of the Dungeons and Dragons cartoons anyway.

>100 Level Cap
>You can only take a certain number of levels in a class (varies by class)
>Everyone has prestige classes out the ass
>Main Character's best ability is gained from 5 levels in a ridiculously obscure prestige class with exacting requirements that gives him a use ability that strips immunity to death effects but makes them delayed activation.

>>44295258
This, but if I recall he said he was fairly high in PVP rank in spite of his poor PVP build because he would concentrate on observing his opponent in the first match of three and then formulate a counter strategy based on for the last two matches. Not that that strategy works when you can die for real, but meh.

MC is also rather poor at being a BBEG and mostly just follows Albedo/Demiurge's plans and then pretend that he was already planning on doing what they suggested. For that reason, and not having a penis around a hot succubus waifu I feel pretty bad for MC.

Also, having been in a lot of collapsed guilds I feel MC's feels about his guildies.

So currently in my group we have a bit of an issue regarding a poor wording of a wish to an omnipotent being. The exact wording of the wish was something like "I wish that all who have died would be revived". Immediately afterwords the GM described the ground and temple shaking heavily, then silence again. The session ended there and I'm scared as to what we got ourselves into. Any ideas?

Depends on the interpretation of "all".
Presumably it's limited to only beings with a soul in this fantasy universe, but otherwise your entire planet should be blotted out by the sheer mass of septillions of microorganisms that suddenly spring into being.

You bite your lip, appraising the garment--blood is soaked deep into the silk of this sash, but of all the clothing that's come in all season it's the most valuable if it could only be salvaged. You start thinking of ways to cut free the irreparably tainted and tattered elements, turning it into a short scarf or bandanna. It's no use, however; you push your hands down into the soapy bucket again and again, but this blood is more persistent than usual.

Sighing, your gaze turns up from where you sit at the wash basket to the loot room at large. There were no more corpses left, they'd all been taken to the reagent room. Now it was just you and the possessions of these unlucky travelers. The clinking of heavy feet alert you, and you pretend to be busy as a a skeleton pushes open a heavy oaken door and walks into the stony, ill-lit room.

Its sockets meet your eyes, and with a gesticulation is summons you forth. She must have some other chore to occupy your time with the common undead proved too inept to handle. As he steps out of the room, you give a a final fleeting glance at the personal effects of the newly dead. What if you nicked something on your way out. It'll all be moved by the time you're back here most like...

Three things catch your eye.

“Kainzo! Barrier back up, now!” You hear Nel shout, and see his form silhouetted in the purple light overhead as he leaps toward Kjorikos from behind. The Artificer turns, appearing briefly nonplussed, as Nel lands feet first on his chest, grabbing him by the head. There's a distinct pause before Kjorikos grabs him, throwing him aside in a dusting of indigo flames with a single gauntleted hand.

Kainzo raises his barrier, shielding the two of you in time for an enormous explosion of force and wild, coiling energy to erupt from the Artificer's direction—you hear Kjorikos grunt, in what sounds like pain, and see his silhouette levitate deeper into the woods, chased away by more caster fire from outside the clearing.

“Huh.” Kainzo says, dusting himself off as the barrier dissipates. “Kid planted one of Ayla's bombs.”

> [[ HP: 23 / 35 ]]

Nel and Tatsumaki join you, looking pretty badly beaten up already. You see the others pulling themselves over the downed trees to meet up with you in the clearing. Eunoia leaves your shoulder to reunite with Aelriss.

“Damnit, he's too quick.” Donnel pants.

“We've got to go after him.” Andor replies.

“No deal. I was ahead of you guys for a while.” Nel says. “He's leading us toward a cliff. This place empties into a proper abyss.”

“So, what do we do?” Aelriss says. “I mean, if we corner him, we'll actually be able to attack him all at once.”

“But he's got no problem attacking all of us at once.” Kainzo says, then examines a faintly-glowing bracer around his left wrist. “Bastion is down for five minutes this time. I think we're gonna have to find a way to lure him into another clearing. Somewhere we've got cover.”

“Uh huh.” Vyx says. “You have any ideas as to how we're going to lure him out? He practically controls the weather in here.”

"Certainly doesn't seem like time is an issue for his type." Dorian adds. "I imagine he'd be perfectly content with our deliberation no matter the outcome."

"So, what, then?" Donnel asks.

“We could smash the place up,” Aelriss says. “He cares about this world, right? Maybe if we destroy it, he'll come to us.”

“I doubt it. Looks like he's already done more damage than any of us would be capable of.” You shrug. “I don't think he cares. He probably just wants to die.”

“His AI seems... really good.” Ayla says.

“Tell me about it,” You respond. You were holding a conversation with him. “Think someone's controlling him?”

“Maybe?” Ayla asks. “Would they really have people just sitting down in every dungeon?”

“Let's not dwell on it,” Kainzo suggests. “Whatever we decide, I'd rather he not have more time to prepare.”

It's a cyberpunk setting with the standard tropes of mercs-for-hire, hackers, androids, megacorporations, etc.

It has medium crunch, lots of character options and comes with a pretty decent cyberpunk world in which the US broke up into statelets and China is very powerful but at war with Russia.
