A smart man does not fly through a stargate at 270 mph when they know that there is only 33 m of stopping distance on the other side.

A really smart man does not get into a position where they have to fly through a stargate at 270 mph knowing there is only 33 m of stopping distance on the other side.

I am not playing a smart man.

It works better with Swamp Thing because Zenyatta's philosophy is all enlightenment-based whereas Swamp Thing's is pure depression.

>>54821470

Not that Anon, but first image is Nightcrawler from X-Men. He teleports. So the GM saw a taxi, because who gets you around better than a teleporter.

Last image is a rescue worker. So he ended up playing the rescue chopper getting people out of shit situations and saving lives.

>>54821924
That's cool

>>54821924

Precisely. It was for Mutants & Masterminds and I chose a teleporter character. Y'know, being rescue wasn't half bad. Would play that role again.

Gummo G'Ruttum had enough intelligence to understand the complex mechanics of rotational velocity, physics, torque, and momentum necessary to dual-wield two flails at once, but he absolutely did not possess the Wisdom to recognize how stupid of an idea that is.

It went very well, I don't have any super epic stories or anything but he was just really fun to play.

I got the DM's approval to be able to throw my flails like ricocheting pinballs if I'm able to pass an INT check in combat.

That's shitty. I was lucky enough to get this game to last as long as it did. Probably the best I managed.

Still, feel like I got a bit turned off to M&M. It lets you do a lot, and that's a good thing. But it's also a nightmare to manage.

Looking to try something simpler for my next game. I've heard good things about Savage Worlds.

He was originally supposed to be a reserved misanthropic character, avoiding civilization, and his favored enemy: Humans. However after having to spend multiple sessions in a village filled with pushy, aggravating, and manipulative people, trying to use him as a tool for their own political gains, his self-control started to wane. He started to cut promos on people who pissed him off, and opening a can of whoop ass on the ones who he failed intimidation checks on. The phrase "And that's the bottom line!" was also used more than once. That's what happens when you create a character suited for a rather specific environment, and then throw him to the opposite for an extended time.

>That's what happens when you create a character suited for a rather specific environment, and then throw him to the opposite for an extended time.

Please tell me how you play characters in this kind of situation without getting them killed or bringing the wrath of the police/guards/whatever down on your party.


I've never been able to do this with a character. I end up retiring them, or having them snap and do something that gets them arrested or killed (or the game stopped because the GM or too many players disappeared.)

What the fuck.. explain now..
Did anyone of your murdered mates survive to murder the shit out of you billions of chapters later you heartless shitwanker

>>54833742
In this game it worked out fine, because our characters were the kids of the biggest celebrity, hero, and protector of the valley the village was in. We found him assassinated, and started an investigation to uproot a conspiracy that had killed him. So in our situation we were operating with the privilege of being very kindly looked upon by the town guards, who hardly ever even considered putting their hands on us. Celebrity can take you a long way in that regard.

In a generic situation, I think if a player has a character that doesn't fit the environment, and it goes on to the point of retiring a character, or making them snap, it's a failure of communication between the DM and the player. Either the player didn't tell the DM what they wanted to play, and hoped the DM would know to put them in the right environment, or the DM didn't tell the players what they wanted to run, and hoped he could adapt any and all character types to his story idea. Either way communication is the way to remedy the situation, and expecting one to cater to the other's ideas without proper communication, harms everyone's enjoyment.

tfw you will never catch your players making posts here about your game.

I know you assholes are here.

>I never got the "What The DM Saw" bit.

Because it's supposed to be a *joke,* not storytime told through the power of interpretive collage. What the DM saw is the setup to the punchline.

What I made: a character concept
What the DM Saw: a stereotyped or super edgy interpretation of that concept
What I Played: drastically different interpretation of the concept with implied humorous interactions when the two visions clashed in game.

For examples:
WIM: generic wizard
WtDMS: Disney Merlin
WIP: that pic of the wizard puking a rainbow

WIM: generic paladin
WtDMS: DEUS VULT

It's a pretty good combat game with the track system being one of my favourite class/multiclass mechanics.

The biggest downside is that GM'ing combat encounters can be hellish. The game has no Monster Manual, so you have to make all of your own enemies. Also strong enemies use the same track system as PCs, which can be absolutely hellish to keep ontop of. As a player I was able to remember my entire action economy and different abilities, but as a GM I constantly forgot certain abilities that my enemies were supposed to use.

>>54841818
>track system
Yeah I just started reading into that and it's really cool. Seems really, really fun from a player perspective.
>no monster manual
