What's the closest thing to play a tabletop rpg campaign by yourself?

No players, only you, acting as both the DM and player.

Well there's open world games:
Dwarf Fortress
Skyrim / Oblivion / Morrowind / Fallout / etc.

Or the straight RPGs:
Planescape Torment
KOTR
Shadowrun Dragonfall and Hongkong
Baldur's Gate
Dragon Age Origins

Or you could just make up an entirely fictional campaign, write it up as if it was an actual storytime, compulsively respost it, and shit TG up with an assload of reddit fanboys.

I'd recommend DF.

Kobolds went from goblin imp things into rats into draconic fodder,
orks went from deformed humans, to pig people, to tusked giants

Why doesnt your setting put a twist on some established and frankly boring races

>Elves
instead of hitlers funland of having everyone tall, white blue eyed and blonde in my setting elves are only humanoid in shape
Tall, youthful, pointed ears and straight hair, soft smooth skin that can change colour ranging from blue to red, usually like a mood-ring adjusting to body temp, They are adept at magic from birth and are essentially immortal, if a little fragile. along with their long life they are slow to regenerate but can regenerate entire limbs.

Why do dragons in movies tend to be beastlike murdermonsters with no intelligence?

The traditional dragon you'd see in something like LOTR or D&D is highly intelligent, but 99% of movie dragons are about as smart as an angry bear.
31 posts and 4 images submitted.
>>
>>44179817
That seems inaccurate. What dragon movies come to mind to you, exactly? Because I think Flight of Dragons, Hobbit, Dragonheart, How to Train your Dragon and Reign of Fire. Which is only 20% mindless-monster. The other one that comes to mind is the one from Angel, which I'm pretty sure he ended becoming bros with, later on.

So I'm not sure what the hell you're talking about.

Simple, just don't have horses around, or they aren't suitable for riding.

I mean, there's plenty of room in Shadowrun to come up with one-note gimmicks, the kind of character no GM would allow a player to take but who are perfect for a counter-runner.

I don't understand the issue; you just use standard mooks, then add your special boss on top for a bit of spice and challenge. Unless they are the active agents (hunting the runners) then it's easy to fit them into a run.

Shadowrun's so lethal that it's honestly kind of underwhelming a lot of the time. Scary bad guys most often are the mental types. That said, I have put in some Real Badasses who the players probably shouldn't attack, and then waited for the players to come up with a way to turn the fight unfair.

Rules

1. Game Change: Switching each turn to a season, I think this is going to make things a lot better.

2. I will launch each season with a random event.

3. For you to take a valid turn you must link the new season random event and use the following format.

"Research"
"I want to research this type of technology"
(include a 1d20 roll if you wish to research)

"Build"
"I WIsh to build this random thing"
(No role required but you must have appropriate material)

"Trade"
"These are the trades I agreed upon last season"
(You can make as many as you want but they do not take effect untill you list them in your action the following turn"

"Citizen/people"
"I want to explore this/attack tha/ Build ships"
(This is how you use your population, Note exploring territory does not make it yours untill you sieve it with troops.)

4. You must have a name and a trip code. If two people claim the same spot It will go to the first person with a trip code

Now that Greenland has given us access to its Steam Engine technology, we set about researching how to make a vehicle to run across our rails by steam power

In exchange, we use our build action to build a foundry for Greenland on their northern isle

Lastly we build more ships, as we have too few

Pic related, there is just something so deeply cathartic about knowing a being exists that is literally "the absence of all virtue". I'm all for complex antagonists with their own motives and nuanced viewpoints. But every once in a while it feels good to know your characters oppose the cosmic principle of "being an absolute dickbag"
