Is G-doc anon still here? Anyone want to take a crack at recording the details of this massive, beautiful, fantastic clusterfuck of Lovecraftian Fantasy misery-porn?

>The madness inflicted by vampiric hunting calls has varying forms, but in the particularly weak-willed, it often manifests as a form of undirected mind control or thralldom; whether the vampire realizes its directives have taken control of a hapless soul or not, the victim begins to act strangely, often in line with the vampire's goals. Gates have been thrown open by those whose minds have simply broken from hearing the vampire's cry too much. This has doomed entire cities often enough to the point where wards and magic have been used to shield people living inside the walls of fortified cities from vampiric hunting calls.

The "Lifeguards" are a guild of somber adventurers who travel the land trying to save surviving people in this miserable time.

They are based out of Fort Peco, an underground shanty town only accessible by traveling through a labrynthine network of water-filled caverns. These caverns seem to be ever in flux. Referred to as "The Burden," all Lifeguards are required to understand a complex system of beacons that allows for safe passage.

I don't give a shit about waifus, but if you're into that stuff then this genre basically got around to inventing them before Japan did.

This was a fun Let's Play.

Reposting from last thread.
>So I'm making a boss fight for my players. I know what they're fighting, but need some help with ideas. They are 6 players, level 7. Tome Warlock, UA beast master, Battlemaster, Life Cleric, Swashbuckler and Totem Barb.

>They have found huge hammer marks in a wall, and weapons and armor sawn in half. I am planning on making it a huge construct, with a hammer and circular saw for hands.

>Anyone have any ideas for abilities? I am thinking some kind of fire/steam breath, and when it dies, it releases an elder fire elemental. The room is also going to be a lava room, much like the Anvil of the Void in dragon age origins if anyone has played that. Any ideas for fun effects I can throw in the room too?

The little bots can be for anything, but players will rip and tear through a single entity in just a couple of rounds.

The fuck?

What's a secret commander?

>>53913039
I'm now building my Crouching Tazri, Hidden Zada deck. There's two backups for her (Mirrorwing and the Nephilim) but I'll still pack cards to retrieve her from grave and exile zone if needed.

Wouldn’t AnCap cyberpunk quicky escalate into Techno-Feudalism?

Post your background first to prove this isn't yet another "no really guise I'm not /pol/ I sware" thread.

>>53912059
They're the same thing

Anarchism of any sort is at most a temporary stop on the road back to feudalism, and from there to statism. The economies of scale from centralized authority make it inevitable that people in a stateless society will either organize a government of their own, or be conquered by one.

>>53911060
Anonimi.

Actually... although I still intend to grant reasonable requests, I was hoping I could take advantage of the inevitable balance critics going to show up here.

Long story short, I want to make some Oriental Fantasy races, and I could seriously use ideas on balancing them up or even just making them unique.

>>53911712
For example... I want to try something different for the traditional hengeyokai, using a shared racial trait rather than the clumsy and never really fitting methodology of just making them "one race with animal form as window dressing difference". Which means I gotta start with that one shred racial trait...

Hengeyokai: You belong to a race of magical beasts that can assume partially or wholly humanoid form, as well as revert to your true bestial shape when it suits you. As an action, you can shift into any one of your three forms.

Hybrid Form is your default form. It functions as normal for a character.

In your Human Form, you gain Advantage on all Charisma (Deception) checks made to pass yourself off as human. It otherwise functions as Hybrid Form.

In your Beast Form, which is determined by your race, your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the beast, but retaining your alignment, personality, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma scores. You also retain all of your skill and saving throw proficiencies, in addition to gaining those of the beast; if you and the beast have the same proficiency and the beast’s bonus is higher than yours, you use the beast’s bonus.

Changing shapes does not alter your current hit points, maximum hit points, or hit dice.
You can remain in any of these three forms as long as you wish, but must consciously choose to change shapes.

You can change shapes once at 1st level, twice at 5th level, and thrice at 11th level. You regain all expended uses of this trait when you complete a long rest.

If you have exhausted your uses of shapeshifting, you can revert back to hybrid form, but you cannot then change again into beast or human form.

Pathfinder. :^)

Talislanta!

No.

yea tho regardless, nurgle is best chaos god, followed by khorne

>>53909649
I think it would make more sense for ordinary humans to join them if the gods actually stood for good things.

At least its not Primaris Cato Sicarius, its pretty good and just as generic as the current captains.

It's pretty good. When is it coming out? Is it going to be released with the rest of primaris stuff?

>>53909333
Better than the Gravid armor one by far.

My first try at sequal-ing a general. and I think i didn't fuck it up. go me.

try again

>>53908543
i can't spell edition.

The players know it's going to be big.
I tested and encounter with a solar and they took it down quick.

The group consists of
Barb
Pal
Wiz
Fighter

The issue is the tarrasque just seems to powerful.

Have you any experience with sucher a beast?

What gear / tips would you suggest?

If you think the Tarrasque is too much for your players, give them a session in which the Tarrasque is far away from them currently but fast approaching. Maybe the nearby city is launching barrages at the thing but it obviously isn't enough to kill it, giving the players enough prep time to get ready for the true fight. If they decide to rush towards it without preparing, we'll see how it ends for them.

>>53904858
Well I'm just not sure.
They have just reached 20.
They have decent gear and took on a solar 2 deva and a planetar in 5 turns.

I think they are ready.
It's just I have no experience with it.

>>53903768
neat

>>53903768
Wait are those primaris Alpha Legionnaires?

MOTHER FUCKING CAWL messing with shit he aught not to have.

>>53903193


On one hand, I'm pretty glad that I've had players be this wildly into my world and actually get emotional reactions from the shit I've created, because they actually get genuinely terrified when the Sorceror-King shows up, get very guarded around other power players, trust nobody, and scheme, scheme, scheme. I've always dreamed of having something like a rogue who sneaks into a room and sees a guy doing something that would only make sense to lore fags and have the entire table go "OHHH SHEEEEIT THAT MEANS THIS AND OH SHIT IT MEANS THAT, DONT FORGET THIS OH MAN THERE'S SO MUCH OPPORTUNITY THERE!" I mean I've been doing that shit for years and usually it's much more blunt and my players just go "zuh?". One time my players got a handout which was literally a lich-to-be going "I am about to make myself into a lich." and it was the king's advisor and he was gathering a lot of people for a religious ceremony he learned from distant lands. In secret. And they went to stop him but didn't know what we was even trying to accomplish.

On the other hand, the player who was most vocal about it is locked in a secure room at the local hospital because she was caught slitting her wrists over it. Am I a bad DM?

>>53903193
>she insulted the sorceror king at a gala for his birthday
Should have killed the PC on the spot, or worse.
No one can say such things of the Sorcerer-King.

>>53903193
>>fine out tonight that one of my players with a severe anxiety disorder has been cutting herself for two weeks now and slit her wrists over how much stress she goes through playing the game
Shit that never happened.

Mini-Satanic Panic around the time 3.5 came out?

Very early builds of 2e removed demons and devils, and made evil alignments NPC only, because they wanted to sell the game to middle America. The 3.5 thing might have been something similar.

>>53901891
The transformation of the fiends into Baatezu, Yugoloth and Tanar'ri were part of the old 2e "satanic panic", which was responsible for some great comedy (tunnels and trolls, dark dungeons, etc).
