Back when the world was still young,
when the land was barren and the seas were empty,
before the mortal races saw the light of day,
there were the gods of creation.
They were created the one, who conceived this world and tasked them to shape it.
You are one of those gods, at the dawn of time.
Dude, ain’t that metaphysical?

Last time our heroic vigilantes of justice oversaw the unfortunate (accidental) destruction of Mr. Wu's Chopstick and Noodle Emperioum
( ttp://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/44269489/ )
But amidst the sushi, lobsters, bullets and bombs that make up postmodern asian fusion culinary creativity they also discovered a nefarious plot somewhere in the sordid depths of New Metroville's copious underground (Awarded best, most spacious city sewer system twenty years running!) And so hot on the heels of the fleeing ICE commando squad, our heroes descend into...

The following security footage was also made available to the Press to disperse allegations that the responding vigilantes (unlicensed as they are) used excessive force in apprehending the ICE kill team.
Mr. Wu will no doubt find it useful when he makes his insurance claim.

But enough about the details and bean counting and stacks of insurance claims involved in the business of DISPENSING JUSTICE and ENSURING FREEDOM FOR ALL.

Maybe you're one of these new-fangled kids what with their broodin' and their tootin' and their poetry and their miserable piles of secrets and their hanging about on rooftops backlit by flashes of lightning striking from the rolling, roiling clouds?
Or maybe you're a sheriff robot on the lam like AS-1! Who knows?
If you want to be special there's rules for that too. You can even do some shopping, if you'd like.

Why are the Klingons such bad spies?
>>44390716
Wouldn't the fact that Klingon spies are never talked about make them in fact the best spies?
>>44390748
Well this thread ended quickly.

Demons. Not super evil demons, but pragmatic and less chained by morals demons. You in a way play the role of Prometheus and grant the mortals the gift of fire with your infinite demonic knowledge. In time your followers ascend to demonhood as well to make it a more proper demon civ.
So /tg/, in previous campaigns I've done the standard BBEG as the primary villain, but I was thinking of having a secret society (like the Illuminati) as the main enemy. Have any of you done something similar? Any ideas?

cut off one head and two more shall take its place.
>>44390396
Yeah, basically Hydra.
Played in a game where there was a secret society run by "witches" which were sort of technically a race all their own. Basically they sent out members into the world to integrate and interbreed with different societies and cultures, and then have them pull the strings. For those who lost interest in the mission overtime, were disloyal, or just never knew about it, the witches in charge could control them with voodoo-esque blood magic. So like, having begun the plan many centuries before, your great great great... grandmother of grandfather could have been a witch...

What happens when someone takes a paladin oath? If a commoner takes the oath, does he get paladin supernatural abilities, if not the weapon proficiencies?
Depends on the setting.

Have you ever wanted to run a session based on the premise of the awful anime Gate? Well now you can! Sort of.
It's still missing some features that will be added later, specifically a bestiary, but I thought I'd share it and hear your feed back.
Love it, hate it, tear it apart and rebuild it, let me know what you think /tg/
Interesting, my players have been nagging me to run a game based on something like this. I thought it was just a sign to get new players, but I'll let you know op

there are these 4 numbers in the bottom right corner. One of the numbers lets people know how many different posters are on a thread. Hover the mouse over a number to identify it.
People bump their own threads all the time but I cringe when they try to hide it and fail.
I recommend brazenly bumping instead of trying to hide it when bumping a new thread. Well, not now, unless a real poster comes along.
>>44390048
it doesn't count the opening post, nor is the image counter
I have the opportunity today (boxing day) to buy packs of bfz for $3.00 even, no tax.
Probably not a deal to most American posters, but here in Canada its a steal.
Is bfz worth grabbing up still. This works out to just over $100 for a box. (Normally $140)
>>44389351
>Is bfz worth grabbing up still.
>still
It was never worth grabbing in the first place. Unless you hit an Expedition, and not just any one but one of the good ones, there's nothing worth opening.
Just buy scratch off tickets if you're going to waste money.
>>44389442
Difference is you cant play with the scratch tickets after you use them.
>>44389351
Do you enjoy opening packs?
Are there cards you like or ar useful to your decks in bfz?
If you answered yes to either of those questions, then you have your answer
You're Big Tink Zognik da Githog, and you find yourself currently in a quite situation. The city pillaging was going within reasonable levels of resistance up to this very point, where you find yourself in a tower, facing off against the most puny looking, but the hardest to crump human you've ever seen. He's a weirdboy.
"You'll never defeat me, pesky greenskins! Because my master believes in me!" The human yelled out with an obnoxious voice before forcing you to duck under another lightning bolt that arched from the oversized staff. Standing...

Man I really can't wait to get back to questing.
I am trying to create a quest set in our own world, and let me tell you, I am having an hard time mapping the largest cities in Europe.
I'm digging some Kamen Rider style shit set in the WWI/II era, with four main characters, a russian, an american, a nazi and a japanese as the riders.
The magic will be Chtulthu and occult stuff lookalike
A silly question /tg/.
What sort of chill adventures are there to be had in a magic school setting. I've put my players in one and I'm out of ideas at the moment

I saw Wil Wheaton and his C-list celebrity friends play this and I have to say it looked pretty fun.
Anyone played it? Is it worth it?
It's OK. We have trouble with betrayers being able to do too much damage late game without leaving any evidence whatsoever before (playing completely loyal until last turn)
haven't played it, but i've heard a lot of good things about it.
It's on my short list, but it was narrowly beaten by FFG's warhammer quest as my latest purchase.

What kind of food do the various races and cultures of your setting eat during their holidays?
bump because this has potential
Orcs, goblins, ogres, trolls, wargs: orcs, goblins, ogres, trolls, wargs, wild game and humans
Dwarves: plump helmets and cave crocodiles
Elves: cakes, salads and humans
Humans: fish
Kobolds: pretty rocks
Rabbits: carrots seasoned with the souls of the damned.
>>44387295
You don't need to bump after just four minutes.
