Oh here we go, two faggots entirely missing the point as usual.

A snowflake is defined by being an extreme. It's not just having a few unusual traits, it's having lots of them to the point of absurdity, and especially it involves not having any substantial characteristics beneath that superficial layer of gaudiness.

Not being a snowflake does not mean you have to go to the other extreme and play something entirely bland and unremarkable - BUT if you can't make a good character out of a simple, ordinary origin story then you suck as a player. Fact.

I'll give the first of you two the point that PCs often do have some unique and interesting characteristics, but there's a lot of clear space between being 'unique and interesting' and being a way out there snowflake.

Hey, look at all these mentions of worshiping deities in the original appearance of the Paladin class. It's almost like they were ORIGINALLY expressions of the knight-in-shining-armor ideal, and CLERICS were the holy warriors devoted to specific deities, and it was you kiddies with post-TSR editions who misinterpreted the class.

Just because within your limited purview of 20-somethings who started with 3rd edition or Pathfinder or whatever, sometimes an annoyingly militant atheist will play a paladin without a god doesn't make the character concept bad... just rolled by shit players.

The existence of gods being questionable and clerics and paladins being rather powered by their community's and their own faith and conviction is by default more interesting. The fucks wrong with you?

Adventurers are pretty much by definition special snowflakes. That's the whole point.
>>
>>55201347
He's right, you know. At least per D&D, having PC stats is being the 1% of the 1%. You're pretty much someone who accidentally broke their limiter on the way to the shops and is suddenly capable of growing and learning ridiculously fast compared to even the best of normal men.
>>
>>55198740
4th is even less restricted than 3rd. 4th ed Paladins can be any alignment without having to use special variant classes.
>>
>>55198883
Depending on a setting it actually could be a pretty understandable if suicidal and unreasonable stance. But PCs rarely get to where they are in life by being reasonable.
>>
>>55198740
>>55201384
Actually, in 4th, if you were using the default flavor (why?) technically it was the first edition where a paladin HAD to worship a deity. Granted, much like many other things in 4th, the word "paladin" didn't really mean what it did in previous editions. While in previous editions "paladin" meant an exemplar of the noble knight-in-shining-armor archetype granted powers by living up to that archetype, in 4th, they were warriors invested with divine power from a deity...... then again in 4th the fluff and the crunch were so seperate that there was literally no obligation to use the written fluff.

4th was actually the first edition where the default fluff had Paladins getting their powers from deities. Before, the default was actually them getting it from ideals/idealism/archetypes.
>>
>>55199916
Tieflings, Drow, and Dragonborn are all default player character options in 5e's core rule book too, but that doesn't mean I let anyone play them at my table.

Only difference is, Tieflings and Dragonborn have only been "default" options since 4th, and Drow have only been "default" options since 5th. Whereas paladins who get their power primarily from ideals, and not directly from a particular deity, have been THE default since the first appearance of the class, with getting powers directly from a deity being either the sole purview of Clerics, or a variant option all the way until 4th edition.
>>
>>55201710

>Only difference is, Tieflings and Dragonborn have only been "default" options since 4th

Mind you, in 4e that made sense. They were basically Carthage and Rome for the default 4e setting, with the setting being 'Dealing with the fallout of both major empires self destructing in a war'

Depending on how the latter one is played, it could be really interesting. I wish I could remember what the game was, but there was a book I used to have that was published back in the 90's that had a Delta Green/X-Files conceit of the players trying to cover up supernatural happenings on behalf of a vague yet menacing government agency. The big twist is that the Christian End Times were happening, and the players were actually interfering with angels trying to rapture people.

Paladins being warrior priests is a dumb idea invented by 3.PF and 4chan crusader roleplayers. Paladins "worshiping" the ideal of chivalry is the closest to their original concept from the earlier editions, while them being warrior monks tied to a deity makes Paladins exactly the same as Clerics except with swords instead of maces.

Look, I'm an atheist myself and also don't ever talk about it because it's not Central to who I am.

I definitely though as a kid went through a phase of reading Richard Dawkins and Christopher Shitchens and telling people they were foolish for believing in a religion. It was embarrassing but definitely happened and I've seen it in others too.

Honestly if I've known you for a while and don't know your religious beliefs for sure, that's the best possible scenario and I don't care if you are an atheist, jew christian, scientologist even.

If I have to pick between a shitty Christian or a shitty atheist though I'd rather the Christian. Feels less vicariously embarrassing.

No, you're wrong. Or at least just butthurt about being cucked by Tyrone and his gay fellatio squad. If you'd managed to spend any time actually getting to know blacks or liberals, you wouldn't feel like they're threats, because they aren't.

People like you are what's killing the white race, not Tyrone and his Nig Club. Do you seriously think that the majority of people are dumb enough to fall to Tumblrina bullshittery and actually kill themselves?

Does somebody have that pic where it compares purebred mean incomes to mixed-race mean incomes? I remember it being pretty clear that race-mixing improves income basically no matter who you are, at least on average.

None. Both fail to grasp the concept of the role of deities being different in a fictional setting, than in real life. The only difference between them is their outlook on what is the case for real life. You can call that 'hurr durr both sides r dum' all you like, but this is less about religion vs atheism, and more about people shoving fedora-tipping politics into places where they don't belong.

The reason we wiped them out was because we were the thuggish brutes with the high sex drive. Their reletively more egalitarian, lower reproduction rate tribes couldn't keep up with the attrition rate of our reletively more sexually dimorphic, high reproduction rate ones. They were more aligned with our modern sensibilities than protohumanity.

The only reason countries don't need to pump out as many soldiers and workers as they can today is because of modern technology, back in the days of simple tools, population was everything.

That's one of the theories. There are others, but they may all be true to an extent.

1. Neanderthal settlements tended to stop at natural obstacles like mountains or bodies of water, suggesting that they were less likely to take risks and ultimately doomed themselves through complacency.

2. Neanderthal bone samples suggest that they reached physical adulthood at younger ages. This would mean that an adult neanderthal's brain would have had less time to develop then ours.

Neanderthals loset because they were short, stocky, couldn't ru fast, couldn't throw things lived in caves in small groups and had to get up close and personal when hunting.
Then they met us, tall, slender, nobler, with our shiny dark skin and brilliant blue eyes, who lived longer lives, could crlimb trees, run so fast, throw their spear over long distances and talk to animals.

european hunter gatherers 7000 years ago had dark skin and blue eyes. This was determined with genetic analysis on bone remains.

the people who met the neanderthals would have dark eyes though, as blue eyes appeared later, when dworfs were already extinct. That part was just an exaggeration for the sake of funposting.

No, fuck off; you make the claim, you provide the academic source, I'm not going to do your research for you or stare at a 101 primer or wikipedia page.

Fuck off and die. Next time, instead of being a smarmy little shit, how about you just pick two or three links from the front page and linking that instead, rather than being a lazy asshole.

Holy fucking dogshit, this is not how arguing and discussion works.
Anon A proposes something; Anon A gives specific source(s) to back up claim
Anon B either accepts the source(s), or then goes on to do more research or find a counter example.
It's NOT:
Anon A proposes something; Anon A tells Anon B to go find the sources on his own because Anon A only cares enough to say stuff, but to not back it up.

Thank you for the link, though, you've been the most helpful out of any poster in the last dozen or so posts, unless you're one of the earlier anons, in which case thank you for actually being helpful at all.

>>55210475
Try and pull that shit in a freshman research paper, let alone a peer reviewed paper, and see how far that gets you.
Yes, the people you're proposing an argument to COULD do all the research; they could go and find all the figures and data and quotes you're referencing.
Should they? Absolutely not, since it's an accepted responsibility on the part of whoever is proposing the argument to back up their argument with sources and citations that are directly relevant to their argument, allowing for the reader to do further research if they so desire.

Anon, have you been ignoring everything I've said up until this point?
Yes, it's expected for the reader to do further research if they're curious, or if they're not convinced by the writer's argument or evidence.
At the same time, it's also expected (outright required, even) that the writer provide some directly relevant source to back up their argument.
This is literally the core of modern discourse.

What a bullshit system. You're a snowflake if you grew up in harsh environment (i.e. most of the world for most of history), but also if you lived like a decent artisan-class kid and got an apprenticeship, which was normal practise in many cultures.

When Hera did get revenge for Zeus' infidelity it was against the kids and not Zeus.

Rogue is a communist?

If you honestly think that you've been fooled and probably haven't met many blacks who aren't working the bottom line.

I've met several black individuals who were the niggest personally but were 6 times more skilled at what they did than the local stormfag.

Maybe you should contemplate if maybe you're the reason you're still working as a greeter at Walmart, and not Tyrone.

>>55212949
this is actually plausible, lawful can be "strictly adheres to a personal code" rather than "follows the written laws to a tee"

A robin hood type character, for example, who steals only from the rich and decadent to share the wealth with orphans, the church, etc. Or one that avoids killing unless it's absolutely necessary. Maybe they never tell a lie, I dunno. It's doable.

Lawful evil is a thing, you know? I'm pretty sure overthrowing the rightful king to set up a dictatorship is illegal most places too, but they still manage to be "lawful" because they adhere to a code.

Plus, falling was impossible. No actions taken by the paladin could cause their powers to be stripped from them. Instead, whatever church or organization created them started to hunt them.
When I first saw that, I made a joke about 'church ninjas'. And then, of course, they made Avengers, which are basically just church ninjas. 4e was nothing if not reliable, I suppose.

>>55201962
As much as I've come to appreciate Faerun, I feel you - not only does it get too much attention, but the 'Points of Light' deserved something much more official and accessible than what it got. (Seriously, I know nothing about it, but would love to learn more.)
I blame wrongheaded corporate ideas about 'brand extension' and 'ip-protection'. We put all our focus in one big world, and make it as kitchen-sink as possible, and that's where all our novels and board games and movies lol will come from. I also blame bad memories of the 2nd-edition book bloat, but in my mind, that's not really the fault of having too many settings.

The cynics weren't big on the idea of going out and actively bettering the world, feeling it ultimately futile. This was a big point where the stoics, who were influenced by them (Diogenes was a big influence on Zeno IIRC) differed from them, and why the stoics would be better suited to being paladins than the cynics.

Now a cynic monk would be extremely fitting.
>>
>>55198882
Sure, but their course to pursuing virtue and bettering the world isn't dependent on the gods. Stoicism isn't tied to any specific god (being in fact pantheistic) and doesn't require veneration of any gods.
>>
>>55216407
That's a fair point, honestly. Plus, now I'm imagining playing a Diogenesian Way of the Drunken Master monk and it seems like it'd be fun as hell.

So, what is a special snowflake? It's a person (and its character) who is desperate for attention and attracts it by all wrong means.
> There are 5 races in your setting? The snowflake will play the sixth one.
> Your game is inspired by medieval European setting? The snowflake will want to play samurai/ monk/ ninja/ whatever. It's not like snowflakes are always weeaboo, if the game was set in ancient Japan, their character would likely be a European paladin.

Unless you're aiming for edgy backstories, in which case they'll be a farmboy or former city guard from a place that's as bland and boring as possible.

On the other hand, Extremism tends to draw in Lawful Cockbags who like to jerk off to "if you're not with me you're against me" paranoia and lump anyone who doesn't walk and talk exactly like them into some Other like SJWs or Nazis.

Honestly I'd rather hang with a douchebag "Centrist" than a Douchebag Extremist, simply because when the douchebaggery is moved aside they're more likely to be right.

>>55221873
I guess I'm a bit biased since generally I'm dealing with the former instead of the latter, but I can see how dealing with a lawful autist on the same level would be worse.

>centrists aren't true neutral
unless you're a cockbag who believes no one is true neutral because we all have bias/sin/ambition, I don't see how you could come to this conclusion.

This is literally how Paladins work. You're welcome to devote yourself to a God, but it is your Oath that your power hinges on; you're not a cleric sucking off some cosmic patron for power, you're a holy champion whose first and last allegiance is to what is Right, Good, and Just.
