>normies shouldn't play

I dunno, I've had good experiences with my rugby team so far. I've ran a couple of simple campaigns with them and they seem to have a lot of fun, their sense of wonder and surprise is both endearing and entertaining.
Still, I wouldn't recommend you playing with anyone, only with those that you know that are nice and will have fun. If you invited your highschool bullies, it was your mistake.

>ave you ever played with people that shouldn´t play pen and paper games ?

Yes.

Me.

Sounds like you're the problem there OP

You've managed to settle into something of a comfortable pace in your life following your meeting with Ciara. During the days you further her training as much as you can. You're impressed by the way she improves. You spend more time on this than you originally thought you would. But it's routine and it manages to keep your mind off of what your life used to be. You walk Ciara to and from work every night she has it, and an incident has yet to repeat itself since she and you began your arrangement.

After Nate returns home in the evenings, you begin to spend time with him as well. Not in quite the same capacity as Ciara, but he's useful in his own way. He shows you around Portland, occasionally inviting friends of his own around to spend time with the two of you as well, and you learn better how to blend in with other humans. Brother and sister both have learned not to ask of your past, and it seems that's how you work.

In the night hours though, between the times you pick up Ciara and leave Nate to his own devices, you patrol. At first you make it an excuse. Bring War to the unjust, keep your skills honed so they don't fall away from you, be prepared for wherever the road that you're on goes. As the days go by however, it's harder to hide from the truth: the violence is your way of coping with being abandoned by everything you'd ever known. The patrols keep you from lashing out at Ciara and Nate. You don't take nights off because deep down you know you enjoy it, more than anything else you've done in the short time you've been alive.

You find yourself tonight farther out from the city center and the small ghetto that you've come to reside in on a lead. Unfortunately not the kind that would lead you back to the Clergy or MacTaggart, but another one that's been just as much of a pain. Dealers in your area have led you to an industrial facility several miles away, abandoned by what public records shows.

In reality the facility's become a drug warren, a major production plant for methamphetamine. You've found several such labs already, and they seem to be a blight. It's so easy to produce, easier to get wrong, and the chemical cocktail oh so volatile. More than once has an operation almost literally exploded in your face due to these factors.

This place seems to have their stuff together, though. Just watching the facility from your vantage point has revealed people in and out. Some have the tell-tale smells and looks of people dealing directly with the drug. Others are too fit, too clean to be anything other than muscle.

You need to move soon.

I still wonder why Jace hasn't banged that vamp ass.

>>44176302

Liliana is a vampire now?

In other words, a true tragic character is one whose downfall was brought about by their own traits and circumstances, not through the circumstances of others.

A quest for power will do that to a lot of people.

There's a variety of reasons, but mainly because it came after Return to Ravnica and Gatecrash, which were both very well received sets (Gatecrash a little less so) so in comparison Dragon's Maze was a little underwhelming.

However the fact of the matter was the vast majority of the cards in the set just weren't powerful enough, or efficiently costed enough, to make an impact in Constructed. The split cards were cool but Turn//Burn was the only one that saw any real play as the others just didn't do enough for their mana costs. Likewise for the Maze Runner cycle, they felt more like they were pitched towards Commander than Standard.

Basically while a lot of the cards look big and flashy, in practice they ended up not being as cool as you hoped they would be. Apart from Voice of Resurgence which was just all kinds of annoying and another sign that Wizards had abandoned their original design philosophy towards Mythics and just started treating them more like 'Super Rares.'

>>44175150
So as a primary EDH player, would it be stupid to buy my GF an 80$ box of this for us to play sealed with and then use in EDH decks?

>>44175232

Yes it would actually. Voice is the only card that is actually worth money in this set, so the only way you're likely to get a good deal out of that purchase is if you open two of them, and some number of Shocklands (some of the DGM packs had shocklands in the land slot) which off the top of my head you'd have a roughly 10% chance of happening. You're better off just buying the cards you actually want from DGM and saving yourself like $60. Especially since you're supposed to play DGM sealed along with GTC and RTR, playing it by itself sounds like it'd be god awful.

Reposting

It is too late, Captain...

We used to writefag a long time ago before it was banned. I made roll-threads that had those 10x10 grids, roll a number and you write a story about the character you got.

I remember we were held back by character limits and had to four-post our stories, some went longer.

Alas, 2008 it died. I went to /k/ and /co/ and never looked back. Mods wanted /tg/ to be a quest place, and I supported it at first. But then I left.

That's a story for you.

>>44174484
So why are you here? You're more than looking back, no?

>>44174521
Because I've been through all the interesting threads and I don't feel like playing video games before work. MTG card threads and to to see if any of the old artfags are still around. They don't get on their stream channels until evening.

>>44173703
Sell me on it, then. What's so rad about the Netherlands in historical times?

>>44173740

Nobody remembers them, so hipsters can funpost about them and admonish others for paying more attention to mainstream european states.

>Can anyone give me a decent rundown on Fury of Dracula?

Yes. Don't run it, it's a bad adventure. We struggled through it ourselves and ended up canning the game half way through and moving on to something else.

> decent horror games

Well, it's more a style of GMing, of sublety and nonconfrontation. Don't let the player see the monster until it is too late. Add in creepy effects like broken televisions that make static that you can almost here a voice in, photos with weird shit in the background, etc.. Just all kinds of fucked up shit.

Anyway, good horror RPGs:

> Call of Cthulu (of course)
> GURPS
> not Dread
> not Paranoia (dunno why people even suggest that one)
> not Don't Rest Your Head
> not End of the World games
> definitely not World of Darkness

Honestly, though, a horror campaign depends far more on the GMing technique used rather than the system itself.

>>44171845
Thanks, have you any experience with the mammoth Arkham Horror, tried to get into it twice, and the set up alone had us totally baffled.

Why do so many things break?

>>44171854

Entropy, I guess?

Could you be more specific? I'm not sure how to answer that question.

Putting the canon Angels in the order they appeared in the series would be slightly more convenient than listing them alphabetically.

>>44171733
Well, how did you present the guy? They might find him original because of the way you acted him out of wrote him, even if the basis of his design is really generic.

I mean, do they enjoy it? Then it's a really really good thing. Hold onto those friends, anon.

shit like this always has 1 male elf.

fucking 1, how am I to build my army of only male elfs?
it's madness I tell you

Nah, more like Friends tier.

What's pretty cool are all the bricks in new flashy colours.

You could build a purple forest from the leaf pieces, and all sorts of cool shit. I wish I still cared about LEGO...

You are the son/daughter of Russian immigrants, who emigrated from the Soviet Union after its collapse in 1991. After arriving in the states, your parents would establish their careers before they had you, after half a decade adjusting to life in the United States. Your parents always encouraged you to adapt to American culture, and since you were born they talked to you about being glad you lived in the United States. Your parents are reasonably well off, and your life was spent in a relatively sheltered environment. However your parents encouraged you to go out and expand your knowledge through any means. Still though, they taught you how to speak/read/and write in Russian. Making sure you take pride in your cultural heritage. To this day, you are proud to say you are a first generation American, but also a first generation college student. Your parents never went to college, in fact your father and mother in the Soviet Union worked as civil servants. Today however, your father works as a System Threat Analyst for a very important Technical firm on the East Coast of the United States. Your mother works as an executive at a major accounting firm in the local area. Your family although not extremely wealthy, is still well off by today’s standard. However you are actually the first generation of both their families to go to University. So today begins a very important day in your life and hopefully a path to a bright future.
You wake up to your alarm. Its excessive ringing over the past 12 years you have had the cursed thing has woken you up time and time again for middle and high school. However today is a very important day. Today is the day you start your new life at University.

“_____, come down and get something to eat!” yells your mother in her usual Russian. You begin to get out of bed and make your way to your bathroom. You look into the mirror and begin to start your morning routine.

Note: I'm an idiot whose never used a tripcode before.

Yeah maybe running right now wasn't such as good idea.
