I put cute things in my games and my players love them.

They have a baby displacer beast that follows them around, a young bard who writes really stupid songs about the party because she's upset that they won't let her join them, and they put most of their gold into helping out a special orphanage for children with either magical talent or are not one of the common races.

I did that once.
The fuckers shoved her in an iron cage and took her with them.

After they left the forest and made it to town they got ambushed by a giant mushroom walking about.
And then another.
And another and another.
Like clockwork, another mushroom man every hour and six minutes would fight them.

They left the town and took a different road and ended up in the forest they left the day before.
They backtracked and ended up on the same road as yesterday.
With another Mushroom Man.

It wasn't untill I outright said the fairy laughing her little pixie buttocks off did they finally connect the dots and let her go.

She cursed them all to have warts and left in a huff.
There was one more Mushroom Man after that before they stopped also.

After various shenanigans, the party ended up killing the matron of a noble family (She was a banshee; it's a long story). The halfling maid, who had futilely tried to stop the orc from entering earlier by harmelssly banging her fists on his thighs, ended up tagging along with the party to act as a page.

Originally, she was just supposed to be an easy way of hand-waving all the prep time and stuff the players didn't care about (Like struggling to saddle horses when you're three feet tall), and possibly be an errand runner. However, after inquiring about her backstory (She originally wanted to be a warlock, but couldn't bring herself to sacrifice a bunny to please her chosen patron) and just generally interacting with her, she's pretty much won the party over completely. Especially the antisocial Kobold, who uses her as a lab assistant.

I swear, those crazy bastards would choose her over the kingdom they're trying to save.

Everybody loves to bully the cute characters I make
>>
I once played Double Cross with a group and rolled a character that thought he was an angel/crusader from the Middle Ages. He was chivalrous (without being "m'lady") and generally stuck up for others. Once he saved a kid from a group of bullies that were under the influence of a virus, and since then started watching out for the boy. From what I remember, he even made the kid his side-kick and telling him that he didn't have to be big and strong to be a hero, and instead he could help out in his own ways. That, and there was a story related NPC that he liked to go to cafes with and drink tea together. He'd accept any missions she had for him, and she'd usually be upbeat and encouraging.

Now I'm playing a game of Dark Heresy, and the Krieger I'm playing is the one with the most amount of combat experience under his belt and is the vet of the warband. He's the designated medic/fire support, and usually leads rookie groups of Acolytes to keep them patched up/all in one piece. At this point all he wants to do is finish out his contract with the Inquisitor, buy a patch of land on some peaceful planet, and find a young wife for himself to see what raising a family is like.

I want to include fun things in my games, but I worry if I include too many cute and comedic things, more serious or not as cute things won't be taken as seriously.

Take Shadowrun for instance - I would love to have some silly sort of restaurant in there for the PCs to visit a Mr. Johnson in, only to find out the Mr. Johnson is so very naive an inexperienced she made them come to the place she worked, and actually is their waitress. But could you take a more serious run seriously after those sorts of shenanigans?

I mean, I guess that could work. I read about a time when a runner was hired by a ork frat boy who called himself "Mr. Jackson" (because he forgot the name people actually used) to beat up a nerd for bringing up the bell curve in his class. So long as you make the funny/cute parts the exception rather than the norm, the players should be able to maintain an appropriate degree of seriousness.
>>
>>47042189
I'd say so

That Mr Johnson is very different from the one which will shoot you in the head for asking too many questions.

There's nothing wrong with the occasional bit of comic relief; my Shadowrunners had to meet a contact in a weeb club called Genki Genki Desu. I spent a good 20 minutes blasting the most hyper and annoying anime soundtracks I could on some speakers while they chatted to him. Similarly my current WoD group get jobs from an angry Scotsman called Irish who runs the Four Leaf Cover Bar and Restaurant.

They're still gonna get murdered by a vampire, shitty scottish accent or not.

Easy. Yes, sometimes beastmen boil out of the woods and burn down a village, and sometimes an evil cult is kidnapping children to sacrifice to Slaanesh, and sometimes orcs show up and eat everyone, but most of the time people just live, work, fuck, and pursue their petty interests as they always have. If the PCs have a reputation as fixers, it stands to reason that they'll occasionally get asked to fix a problem that is, by their standards, somewhat comical.

I feel like moments of levity like this are NECESSARY in Warhammer to make the cults and beastmen and evil vampires feeling punchy and relevantly evil.

In my Night Shift games I had two NPCs that showed up every session: A plucky ghost girl former attendant that hung around the gas station and the bitter jaded night manager that yelled at the PCs all the time. They were each other's only real friends because they'd been at the station the longest and they always spent most of the night shift hanging out shooting the shit in the manager's office. She'd always play peacekeeper between the PCs and the manager when they argued and she'd always talk him into helping the PCs fight whatever monster threatened the station even if he'd pretty much given up on the idea of anyone but him surviving the night shift.

Well, I had a source of cute from a very unlikely origin. In a Megaman X game I run, I have a multitude of players who I am using as testing grounds for the system on my end and theirs, trying to tweak it as we go because it's basically me trying to hammer it all into place properly. One of my PCs took the hunt of one Razor Linnorm, possibly the edgiest looking on the list while simultaneously the least dangerous. A 20 foot long serpentine frame covered from snout to tail tip in blades that could cleave boulders in two and with new wings recently purchased that could shear through trees, he looked like if he went on the warpath he would leave tiny giblets of humans in his wake. This was, however, offset by one thing which won over many hearts in my group: he was ridiculously incompetent due to his systems being surprisingly resilient to the Maverick Virus, subconsciously trying to fight the virus into submission and in effect losing a large amount of his Intellect. This led the hunt from being about a renegade dragon blender in packed streets to being about how he kidnapped the Princess of England because obviously dragons of old would take princesses to become rulers of nations, as only the ruler had a princess. So one hunter, instead of fighting swarms of killer mechaniloids and reploids, instead waded through pet tier mechaniloids and had their ankles gummed by mettools, give a human kid who was wearing a cardboard hoganmer costume a promise to not hurt the big oaf, and have a very concerned Ax Max try and talk said dragon out of something stupid while the princess just wondered what the fuck she had been made part of.

Ended as a live capture after citing that knights routinely challenge dragons for princesses, followed by a suplex through a bridge and the kid counting Linnorm out when his head got stuck in said bridge. Going to have him come back later as a TV show mascot after being hit by Doppler's cure.

You have to include descriptors that make it sound more horrible than it sounds from just the critter. For example:
>Face to eyeballs with a giant spider
Becomes
>You immediately see a giant spider before you, coarse brown fur covering it's legs as it's mandibles drip a caustic venom as the bulbous, black orbs that it has for eyes focus upon you. It gives a screech at your appearance, beginning to skitter towards you! Roll initiative!

I don't know, I think spiders are pretty cute. Then again, the reason we don't hold the game at my place is because my tarantula terrifies the two arachnophobes, so maybe I'm the weird one.
>>
>>47059958
20 doesn't equal automatic success, silly!

>>47061159

Yeah, but a good modifier and full skill ranks on top of that can equal a big, chitinous new friend.
>>
>>47061298
It depends. You can't negotiate beyond a certain point, and a spider bent on eating you is very unlikely to stop its attack, and you succeeding in taming the thing is flat out impossible without magical aid.

One of my payers has a ghost that follows her around. He was a rockabilly punk and was utterly obsessively in love with her and they were best friends even though she wasn't in love with him. He's constantly spying on her and making inappropriate jokes about her big ass, but is ultra protective of her.

And she act like she's ticked off by it but she's just as protective of him and if she is ever depressed or sad or something he "wears" a snuggy so he can hug her
>>
>>47061012
It's funny, my group has an arachnophobe too. I think he enjoyed smashing the shit out of the giant spiders. Must be a visual thing because he didn't seem that disturbed by them.

But seriously, it's not just spiders, it's wolves and owlbears too. I mean, in my opinion I can kind of see why you would find all of those things kinda cute. Owls are cute, bears can be cute, and wolves are obviously going to bear a lot of resemblance to huskies and they're cute too, but at this point I'm just a little worried that I'm never going to be able to have any intimidating non-humanoid threats. I wonder if she'd find a tarrasque cute.

Baby {horrifically dangerous thing} are common in my games. Usually after the party comes across the deceased parent. This far, there have been:
>baby Griffon
Aged according to a lion's growth and development into an adult griffon before they were through with the campaign. Amazingly, nobody tried to ride him.
>Baby grey render
Followed the party at a distance of no less than 150'. Would periodically leave uprooted plants or piles of fish. When it finally interceded in a combat, it was hopelessly outmatched (can't remember what by) and the players saved it's life, and nursed it back to health). Afterwards it followed the party at a distance of only 100 feet, and they noticed it much more frequently.
>Baby Purple Worm
They killed it. I can't say I blame them.
>>
>>47064016
Her little buddy there bears the trademark segmented growth pattern of the "jumping cactus". It's possibly one of the biggest bastard plants ever grown. Merely grazing the spines will cause the whole damn thing to stab you a dozen times over and lodge a spiny ball of barbed pain in your flesh.
>>
>>47029718
Too be fair, last cute thing in the campaign my DM added I daughtered it. It was the Vampire Queen and stole her to join us. Pissed off an entire kingdom and kept her as my daughter against her will. She turned out to like it and by the time we finally came back, I was appointed some weird advisor to her and guard.

We killed her entire family in another campaign and didn't know after this one concluded

Unless it just cursed them so that every hour and six minutes a mushroom man would wander up and punch them.

Thats just a one time deal and if they don't see it then they're fugged.

It's not a meme, it's logic. There's only so much you can do, and if you aren't a sociopath then there's only a fraction of that.

Or...stay with me now, or...they weren't playing DnD and Fey bullshit was involved.

Quite frankly, they're lucky that all they had to deal with was a mushroom man and not something more devious from Fey myth.

B-b-but how can anyone play a system that isn't D&D?

During a Mission on an Agry World, my Dark Heresy group stmbled upon an easy job to make some money. They had to hunt down some unruly grox that escaped their pen.

When they got to the last one, thy found out it was a baby grox.

Without saying anything to anyone, they stole it and ran away.

Now Devastation aka Baby Grox aka Groxy is a permanent memeber of the party, usually snarling and biting and napping and getting belly rubs

Unless it's a space-based RP I've never been in a party that leaves the immediate area, so I can't see that being an issue.

Just live in the town and find a way to sell mushroom man corpses.

I put cute things in my games and force the players to kill them.

I bought a printed campaign where a young harpy is the first potential combat encounter. When I realized the party needed someone who can read Draconic, I made the harpy willing to follow them around and translate things for them.

She refuses to get near them because of the smell, though.

According to my research, spines don't grow back. So, after getting all the spines out (with some sort of tool, perhaps), you'd be safe.

Aren't cacti actually super hydrating (they carry quite a bit of water inside them)?

The best part is, nobody murdered her for her +1 dagger!
>>
>>47081703
Yeah, their waxy skin helps keep moisture from evaporating, and they've turned their leaves (anthropomorphically speaking, of course) into aforementioned spines. But "Cactus Moistad" doesn't sound as good.
>>
>>47081679
But wouldn't that be considered an insult to cacti people? Or maybe they have means of magically re-growing their spines when needed...
>>
>>47084139
Either are possible, now that you mention it. I was thinking more along the lines of the cactus girl wanting to remove them because she could never get close to anyone.

Maybe it's an insult to normal Kacti, but she's a weirdo who wants to see the world and find True Love? That's why you see so few Kacti out in the wide world. They're like hobbits, but with spikes.

That makes them even more adorable. A quiet Kacti life of smoking hesh and blowing glass...

A group I ran games for had an arachnophobe. Even a spider miniature freaked him out. Conversely, I'm "the bug guy" and so I have a capture and release policy for spiders at my place.

She doesn't mind not being close to anyone. She's a catcus! It's kind of a fact of life for them. Being able to talk and help people is enough.

>>47088467
>It's kind of a fact of life for them.
MOST of them, yeah! But she is an oddity in Kacti culture. Wanderlust just isn't proper in a young Kacti like her.
>>
>>47088916
Well, Kacti tend to gather around sources of water, true. That's why you always see them at oasis towns. But it's not uncommon to wander across the desert to find a new oasis, or simply to go on pilgrimage.

And besides, she obviously knows this part of the desert well enough to bring travelers to safety. Obviously she's not just passing through.
