I use vanguard alongside rearguard and torchbearer to describe marching orders.

Also, from what I've heard, egregore's are no joke. stay away from that shit.

Felt it would be good to inspire an uplifting sort of campaign. Like a small band of adventurers searching for meaning outside of their small world.

>>51036766
Saw it in pic related, was intrigued by the concept.

It's German, a longing for something or someone that can't be satisfied in the foreseeable future.

That's a pretty good example actually.
But you can be Sehnsüchtig for something that actually exists too.

>>51036867
It's basically just a word for longing for something just out of reach. I am sehnsüchtig for chocolate but the store's closed. I have a Sehnsucht to play this new game but all of my friends are faggots that only play one game

>>51036904
>I am sehnsüchtig for chocolate but the store's closed.
What if the store opens tomorrow? Still sehnsüchtig?

>onii-chan
>kawaii
>desu
>kimochi

>>51036927
It's not tomorrow yet, is it?
And also Sehnsucht is pretty much used like desire or want in the usual german day-to-day language.

>>51036927
Yes, but only if you're a pretentious faggot.

>>51036669
Friendly reminder that running a campaign because you want to use a world is the assbackwards way of DMing.

Campaigns and settings should all be selected and created with input from the group.

Don't be one of the pleb DM's who runs a group just because they want an audience or rely on ready made settings.

I was working with >>51036842
>can't be satisfied in the foreseeable future.
tomorrow is foreseeable future, unless you're a mayfly

>sehnsucht
Basically what Kuro-Ryuujin are supposed to be played as. Or at least a possible way.

I'm a german and I stand by my definition, because >>51036904 that's how we use the word.

>>51037001

You're implying that every DM has a regular group. In all cases where I've played, DM'd or seen others play, it's been a DM with a campaign in place, looking for players to come pick it up.

Had a shitty DM, then took over the same group with a new setting, and they were all pleased enough with it.

>my way of DMing is the only good way of doing it, wah

>Like a small band of adventurers searching for meaning outside of their small world.
Although Wiki states that Sehnsucht might be used to describe a craving for unknown places it usually stands for a longing for people, places or items that are already known to a person (experiencing certain feelings once again). The word you're looking for is Fernweh.

>>51037045
Well, I've learnt something today.

Thanks anon.

>>51037045
Yes, Fernweh is the general desire to break free of your day to day life

>>51037034
Hmm, I see. For all it's worth I have sehnsucht yer teflon-kanzlerin would GTFO.

>Fernweh

OP, literally just okay Chronicles of Darkness. Use all of these (and more) in one campaign.

>>51037034
there's also high fallutin' literary use of a word and day to day use.
ennui is this deep, elaborate world-weary cynical lethargy if you read work like Sartre.
In everyday use, it just means you're bored.

>>51041227
The term 'high fallutin' really makes me want to build a campaign around it.
