D&D (now 5th edition) tends to be the popular entry drug into teeg shenanigans.

Even the comic creator knows skubfags are the worst

They all did, as well as burn temples in front of the preists before burning them too. Exterminatused worlds when they got too pissed at them. All 18(19) of them were right fuckers. Every single one.

Norsca seems pretty well united under Chaos.

shouldn't that be the ocean of chaos?

>>43911607
Not very. World ended.

As complicated as saying Beetlejuice three times.

>>43911696
What? Beetlejuice? That's a dumb idea. Why would saying Beetlejuice summon a demon. What, is Beetlejuice the name of some poor sod of a demon?

...what? What's the look for?

>>43911412
Oh, it's simple, if you know how.
Just tear a hole between the immaterium and the materium, and wait for enough energies to spill through to manifest into a daemon.
Bobs your uncle, you've got a violent set of emotions embodied in psuedomatter attempting to rip out your entrails.

Wait, you wanted to survive it? Oh, well... that's harder.

Because everyone thinks they're as cool as Larloch.

And nobody smacks down Larloch. At best they survive Larloch.

>Everyone knows evil is wrong anyway.

Its cause you're playing DnD where evil is objectively measured because it's the counter balance to the good half of the universe.

In other words. They do it because someone has do.

Alternatively, because your GM is a hack.

>>43911190
Lets see... I assume you're talking about a typical card-carrying, "I did it because I'm evil, lulz." kind of evil, as opposed to the "Misguided idealist" evil?

Well, couple of reasons;
- Narcisssism. Someone with narcissstic personality disorder literally thinks the world revolves around them and that everyone else needs to bow to their whims. Easy to see how an evil asshole could spring from this.

-Psychopathy. A pathological lack of empathy, deep emotion and impulse control. They'll kill someone to get their watch, get bored of said watch and then move on to the next little "victory", since they never get any true satisfaction. Often have no appreciation of morals.

-Schizophrenia. Their world view is warped. Like, seriously warped. They may think they're a god, that they're fighting off an invisible conspiracy or that they're somehow entitled to their actions. Delusion is a powerful thing.

-Sadistic Hedonism. Okay, hednoism is not an inherently wrong moral philosophy. But this guy takes it waaaaay too far. He enjoys the sufferign of others to such an extend he either thinks his pleasure over-rides their moral qualms, or jsut stopped caring a few years back.

I'll try to think of more, but the simple answer is that some people are juat really, really fucked up.

>Is magic dead?
Aleays and constantly, for any, all, and especially the slightest and vaguest reasons.

We have had this thread a million times nothing new could be said.

Just wait and see what it will be.

it taps for colorless. <> is the new format for (1) in mana producers.

part 2

>says that his character is some homebrewed hideous monster race, when I asked how she was a stripper if she looked like that he answered with "she casts disguise self constantly"
>in the low magic setting
>finally gets to how the campaign started
>26 minutes after she stopped being a slave, Speshul Sno'flake McWaifubait goes and makes a huge heroic speech about how humanity should unite and not lose hope and chastises everyone for being generic personality-less grimdark depressed bastards
>a trait which the guy OOC said he saw as a "great addition to the setting".
>nobody joins of course, except the other two party members who are both prettyboys who immediately both fall in love with her
>which the guy greatly brags about
>basically decide to try completely changing the subject, this autism is too bad even for me
>decide to instead discuss funny expy characters, like the traditional Micheal Jackson bard/necromancer or an all-cleric party that's the Ghostbusters
>eventually get onto the subject of a Tyler Durden fighter, he adamantly claims it would have to be lawful evil.
>I get that there are plenty of flaws with the alignment system, but that shit's too far, I ask how he can see a character whose primary goal literally is "cause anarchy and chaos" as "lawful".
>He brings up on his phone a massive pre-written essay about his views on "lawful evil", which basically boil down to "all lawful evil characters ever are truly righteous but misunderstood antiheroes who are the real heroes of every setting" and goes on to say how "he identifies himself as lawful evil"
>the autism is beginning to induce a minor aneurysm at this point

next post will be last

>>43910753
part 3

>try to point out that alignments are subjective and their exact definitions change depending on your DM or setting, he basically says that any setting that doesn't use his ideas is fundamentally flawed
>he also claims that there is no such thing as evil characters and no such thing as people who think they aren't totally justified and righteous
>basically thinks every single person on earth and in all fictional settings view themselves as morally perfect and good individuals, and only other people can disagree with your actions
>goes on to explain how he views "evil" in the alignment system as meaning "follows their own code of ethics and individuality" and "good" as "follows what the majority agrees with", instead of that being the "law/chaos" distinction

/tg/, why do people like this exist?

>>43910764
Because people like you don't strangle them to death when you hear this bullshit.

Frank Herbet's Dune is basically Warhammer 40k, the TV miniseries. It's sad to see how far the Sci-Fi channel have fallen.

Also Space Pirate Sarah

>>43910084
Yes.

>>43910084
Going back to the basics is always a good thing. Although I can imagine it backfiring hilariously when people try to play it like a more modern game.

>The fighter is a knight out to save the king's daughter from a dragon
>The knight is noble
>The dragon is evil
>The princess wants to be saved
>There is no twist
No one will ever expect this.

As long as they don't do anything shadier than that and take care of proper hygiene in their facility, I see nothing wrong with this. Good for the vampires for figuring out how function in the normal, law-abiding society.

>>43909490
They get beheaded because non-humans are a blight on the land and vetala are behind duk'zarist the most needing of execution.

Also nearly as bad

>>43909490
Seems legit, creatures of the darkness trying to overcome their baser nature and treating mortals as equals.

My paladin wholeheartedly endorses their endeavours.

Sounds neat, but the damage seems low if they're fighting an adult red dragon.

>>43909425
Interesting. How much damage would you reccomend? I was concerned about making the dragon too overpowered.

>>43909414
add a dex penalty to the molten metal.

Requesting: Dungeon Dozen (again)

Does anyone have Legends of the Wulin?
I had it a while ago but now that the physical copy has finally been released I want to give it another read through before I order it in.

>>43908877
Most of the answers you get won't be satisfying. I would recommend Savage Worlds with a combo of fantasy and scifi splatbooks combined however fits best for your group.

>>43908877
GURPS

Nah just kidding I love GURPS but it probably rivals Shadowrun in terms of bookkeeping

I second Savage Worlds and just combine stuff from the fantasy and scifi books. Savage worlds is really rules-lite.
