What would a fantasy or scifi setting based on Australian Aboriginal culture/mythology/history look like?
Well i wpuld guess it ends in genocide, camps and eugenics.
Ancient aliens
>>46851276
I had an idea for a Sci Fi thing where aliens come to claim Australia as their own territory. The initial landing party is wiped out during a Maralinga nuclear test site during the 1950s, and in the following years Woomera becomes a kind of Area 51.
Eventually, a colony fleet turns up in 2010s and start trying to colonise the continent.
Fighter pilots patrolling the skies, ground troops and investigators flushing out alien colonies and invasion plots, recovering alien technology and retroengineering it, trying...

>players are tasked with removing a Wererat infestation from a silver mine
>they kill like 15 wererats using silvered weapons
>instead of going to get the reward they load up a wagon with unrefined silver ore
So they just stole a ton of wealth from a kingdom, and the magistrate that hired them on probably thinks they died.
I kind of made it easymodo for them, because the wererats were surrounded by their one weakness.
How should I approach this? I was...

The party consists of a half orc barbarian, an elven bard, a human cleric, and an elven ranger.We're playing 3.5 D&D.
>>46850951
Also they're all level 3. And none of them have died yet, but they were close to death at three different points. They're all currently at 70% health except for the barbarian who's at 50%, and extremely exhausted due to lifting 200 .lb crates of ore through a mine.
>>46850930
1 pound of pure silver is worth 5 gp according to the Player's Handbook (5E), so a metric ton (2204.62 lbs) is worth 11,023 gp and 1 sp. For the sake of argument let's round that down to 11,000 gp.
Then, figure out how pure the ore is.
http://www.britannica.com/technology/silver-processing
The site above says that ore is typically about .085% silver, so going off of that, the 11,000 gp is reduced to just 935 gp.
So...let the players have it, I guess? It's not really gamebreaking.

I don't really like crossovers because the themes tend to get very muddy, very fast. Rather than wibd up complementary, every single crossover game I've seen throws symbolic cohesion out the window in favor of a lame urban fantasy romp that loses out on the horror and the narrative meat of each game.
>>46838856
Avoid them. As long as I can.
There is the extremely rare occation where I'll run a crossover, but only after making sure that everyone is on board with the style & theme.
It worked 0/3 times.
Let's talk about sheaths.
How secure would this be?
>>46836161
In the way when you sit, but it'd be difficult to prevent from drawing or draw from behind.
Also, minus 10 horse points for carrying two swords.
>>46836161
Pretty insecure, because I'd sheathe my sword in datass.

Was a little inspired by Hector's miniature and some talk on the forums about Leonidas as a possible SP character. I think of him as a HI with armor similar to Hector's, so here's a quick sketch of my idea for Leonidas and the Spartans. What kind of profiles can you think of for them?

Is Tolkien's work the pinnacle of fantasy worldbuilding/fantasy in general? Nothing gives me the same kind of vibes as his legendarium.
>>46853274
I would say he's one of the best, and my personal favorite.
However, arguments could be made for Erikson as well.
>>46853274
He's a very comprehensive writer to be sure.
I dunno if that always works in his favor though.

Why do "those munchkinny powergaming minmaxing rollplaying hack and slashers who want to do nothing but kill things" get such a bad rep when there are classes (barbarian, fighter, etc.) that are pretty much 95% dedicated to fighting and barely have any utility outside of a fight?
I mean, you've got to play to your strengths, right? And it's not like they're the REALLY narrative-breaking, hyper-versatile classes.
>>46844805
The mechanics of your character are not the end all be all of the character.
>>46844805
Because your characters are supposed to be more than their stats.
>>46845078
The combat mechanics are not your end-all be-all.
Don't facilitate the troll into thinking that no customization exists outside kill-moves.

With greed.
You know the drill: pick a race (or races, if you guys wanted to have a mixed-race tribal society), and pick a starting area.
This is my first civ game attempt, but I thought that I may as well make one when I have an entire day to mess around with.
The race you guys pick will be very young and the first generation of their kind.
If a race is "exceptional" at something then it gets three d100s, if it is good then two d100s and if it is okay then it gets 1d100. However if something is a struggle then it is a 1d100 - 30.
Machines in volcano
30 and below is a failure, so you can see that with multiple d100s something becomes extremely easy to do and almost impossible to fail.
This fixes the issue I saw in that really awesome Unseen Civ where despite being exceptional at magic they always rolled too low while succeeding at war stuff.
This way something is made way more likely if it's said to be easy and much harder if said hard.

My character (LE mid-level wizard) 's hometown is under siege from an elven army led by one of my party member, a female elven CM arcane archer.
Basically, she decided that as the magical daughter of an undead knight, it's her duty to expand his domain and chose my hometown because the Contraceptive Potion I made for her failed and because of that, she got pregnant while doing it with the sorcerer party and because Hormons, I guess.
I have in game 2 weeks before the elven army should arrive, but smaller bands of archers...

Dude, you're in trouble. The DM will rule against you whenever opportunity arises, e.g. if you send scouts out, 'by chance' they will be ambushed and reveal your secrets etc
What level are you specifically? Asking so that we can get an idea what capella you have access to.
