Hey /tg/. The weed is freaking me out. Can we create a homebrew game with a homebrew setting and rules, based around being a paladin and the idea of an inronically heroic knight.
Also knight, paladin, and chivalry thread.
>not welcome: anti-paladins, katana edgelords
Praise the sun!

That's paganism, Patrick.
>>46638644
I was talking about Solaire.
>>46638848
So was I.
>>46637155
So you want to play Blue Rose?
>>46639379
I don't know, what is it?
>>46638871
Solaire's first name is Patrick?
>>46639975
It's basically similar to D&D, but rather than murderhoboing through dungeons, you go questing as knights of the realm and heroism your way across the land.
>>46637155
Play King Arthur Pendragon.
That's all you need.

No it isn't. Blue Rose is literally SJW D&D. I'm not fucking kidding.
I wish the file was small enough to upload for your perusal right here so I didn't have to bother summarizing it, but... seriously, the fucking thing -
>no crime, because everyone with criminal tendencies just has their brain reprogrammed via magic. Viola!
>Magical deer hakutaku deity thing picks the next king or queen so they're always perfect
>Gay? A-OK!
>Neighboring kingdom is literally Soviet Mordor ruled over by The Religious Right theocratic barbarian church of We Hate Gays Forever
It's a fucking clusterfuck, guys
>>46642075
>Soviets
>theocratic in any way
>barbarians
The fuck? They cracked down on worship and helped to spark a great deal of human technological advancements
>>46642125
>>46642134
>>46642075
>literally Soviet Mordor ruled over by The Religious Right theocratic barbarian
>literally
You need to explain
>>46642353
I've been trying to upload the damn pdf for five minutes now. 4chan bans one service's links, and mediafire just won't fucking upload it.
So have a screenshot. This pretty much summarizes it. The neighboring country oppresses homosexuals, is ruled entirely by the Church, and the Church has secret police that oppress the populace.
>>46642503
Where's the Literally Soviet part? Or is it just that Soviets have a monopoly on secret police and informants of all kind?

Great Paladin you are. A Paladin upholds the law even when it doesn't tickle his pleasure centers.
>>46642616
Paladins and lawful characters in general don't have to uphold any laws whatsoever other than those they have pledged to uphold, just as they don't have to serve any liege they haven't sworn to serve.

Have a gander at these.
>>46642603
It's a joke, anon. In case "soviet mordor" didn't clue you in.
>>46642655
particularly if the laws are unjust
>>46642503
>oppressive empire/religion is some sort of newfangled social justice idea unique to this setting
for someone complaining about "sjws" you sure seem sensitive.
>>46642503

So it's the D&D Grey Guard along with the necromancers and assassins that are in literally every evil deity's following in D&D. Oh, and the evil countries/evil cults are caricatures of evil plans, just hating random things to be evil and ruling everyone with an iron fist.
As I said... it's D&D but with questing for the sake of heroism.
>>46642690
Yup. But even a servant of the Law is only a servant of his take on the Law. Feds and county sheriffs only enforce a small subset of laws, for example. Similarly, evil acts are anathema to paladins, but chaotic acts, whatever they are, are not anything he needs to care about at all.
Some may argue that Neutral Good is the most "pure good" alignment. I totally disagree, being half and half on one axis doesn't impact the other axis. The paladin is exemplary of this, at least in my opinion. He, like most lawful good characters, use the law as the means to an end with goodness.

Thus triggering a continent wide civil war between your brothers, a young scotsman who can't keep it in his pants, a pirate lord, and your wife's family who think it would be fun to prop up a sickly, inborn child-king.

Please tell me how white knighting paladins are different from Edgelords?
It is same extreme, just on the other part of spectrum.

>Please tell me how white knighting paladins are different from Edgelords?
What's the point in trying? You refuse to believe anything that contradicts your beliefs.
>It is same extreme, just on the other part of spectrum.
Only in your short-sighted, 3 WIS mind.
