Why do RPG systems include a disguise skill and trapmaking skill when disguise is basically completely mechanically invalidated by trapmaking? I mean sure, the disguise options options that come with creating traps are more limited, but if you construct your party a certain way then your rogue basically gets the disguise skill for free while still being able to set up effective pitfalls, dart traps and other similar things.

It seems like an oversight that there's so much overlap there. I guess system creators just trusted players to not minmax when creating characters, preventing trapmaking from being a valid disguise option for a large enough portion of the party.

>when disguise is basically completely mechanically invalidated by trapmaking
Are we still talking about the "set devices that harm enemies" trapmaking, or "dress a boy as a girl" trapmaking? Because I'm confused.

He is being a faggot, quite literally in this case going on about transvestites. He's made 2-3 threads with the same retarded starter image.

>>51545238
Not funny.

The attempted joke is that he's using both definitions of "trap." Yes, it's dumb, and is hardly a laugh riot worthy of a thread.

But what if your trap is also a trap? Dress him all cute, wait for the baddies to nab him, and then the rest of the party ambushes?
>>
>>51546072
That trap doesn't look remotely like a trap
>>
>>51545238
Oh, we're trying this again?
>>
>>51546432
I'd fall for it.

>>51545238
Traps are hiding their gender, not their identity, you dingus.

You have to go back

>>51545238
This was more funny 4-5 years ago when penises (feminine) got really popular on /tg/, but now it's just a little sad.

The funny part is how people who don't like the thread still have to reply to it, so it all balances out.
>>
>>51545238
I like this new moustache meme :)
>>
>>51547906
You mean they're hiding their sex. Gender is a facet of identity. You're both dinguses.

Dinguses? Dingusi? Does Dingus even have a proper plural?
>>
>>51545945
So, he tried a clever wordplay but failed? Trapmaking skill low.

>>51546432
That's the whole point.

Stop it! /tg/ is SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS. We don't allow any of this silliness around here. And to prove it I'm posting this picture.
