Is that pants on head retarded thing where drow fetuses have a death match in the womb still canon in 5e?
>>47477828
Dunno, but those are some prudish drow.
>>47477842
They're from Underdark New England, land of steady habits.
>still canon in 5e
[citation needed]
>>47477828
Well, if drow were part shark or something then it wouldn't be pants on retard for the fetuses to devour each other. However, drow are elves so it is pants on retard, and I think (about 85%) that it's not canon in 5e.
>>47477865
Citation is what he's asking. Learn to read gud.
>>47477868
It's right up one of those things that tries to be so fucking edgy but just end up being plain retarded.

>>47477828
It was never canon.
It was from a Dragon Magazine article printed when Paizo had control of the magazine and it was considered "take these with a grain of salt."
>>47477865
Son your lack of education is showing. See that question mark after the bit you quoted? <--like that one? Well you uneducated knave in your rush to be a dick, you missed the part where he was asking for citation.
TL;DR git gud it's not just for vidya

But are you ready for them to be half goth vampires, half fetish drow, and half furry werewolves with trenchcoats and dark daikatanas?

>>47478137
The phrasing is unclear, he might as well be asking if the thing is pants on head retarded and then specify the thing he's talking about in the rest of the sentence. That's how I understood it.
>>47478136
So what you're saying is it's DEFINITELY canon in Pathfinder.
>>47478164
Samuel Haight was a thing back then, you know?
>>47478186
>canon in Pathfinder
Probably, Pathfinder is full of all sorts of weird shit.
>>47478181
Let's remove the descriptors and clarification from the sentence
>Is that... thing... still canon in 5e?
If he was asking if the thing was retarded, the words would be arranged so that "Is that retarded?" was at the back end of the sentence. And since that would be a question about opinions (Whereas asking if it's still canon is asking about a fact), it would be more along the lines of "do you think that's retarded?"
>>47478196
I was making a joke until I looked for him....what the fuck is wrong with people?

It's certainly canon in my games.
I'm always looking for ways to crowbar my fetishes into games, while at the same time using them for horror or other campaign appropriate purposes. It's gone pretty well so far.
I'm getting turned on by that pregnant dark elf. I've never had a thing for pregnant women or elves before, but it works, and I can't figure out why.

It's a VERY simple question. There's nothing unclear about it.

Your parents must be overjoyed to learn you're finally over that little "Homosexual" phase you were going through.
>>47477828
That comes from a 2002 Dragon Magazine article, and was never mentioned again. It's debatable if it was ever "canon" at all.
>>47478871
Are you implying all straight men are attracted to pregnant women and elves?
>>47480378
They should be.

Pregnant, happy, non-enslaved elves warm the hearts of all good men.

If that thought doesn't get you hot and bothered though, I don't know what's wrong with you.
>>47477828
It was only mentioned in one Dragon Magazine article, so I seriously doubt it's canon. Even back then it was at best deutrocanonical. It's more likely to be canon in PF, considering the article was written by the people who went on to write PF.
Regardless, post more pregnant drow. I need them for...reasons. Elves are fine too in a pinch.
>>47478181
No it isn't.
That would be "Is it pants on head retarded that drow fetuses having a death match in the womb is still canon in 5e"
You just fucking misread stop trying to defend yourself

Just gonna mention -- according to Drow of the Underdark, drow dress down to show aggression and confidence. So if a drow woman is naked, she thinks she's being scary.

Considering drow are demon corrupted and worshipers of said demons (mostly) to escape death by aboleth celestial bombardment, I'd say it's probably likely.
I had this kind of thing going on already before I read about it in their fluff through...so that might be a false positive.
>>47477828
No. I don't think it has ever been in a canon source. Dragon magazine is dubious.
>>47477828
>canon
Depends on the setting
Is there a standard D&D setting?
That must be the most boring thing I have ever heard about.
>>47477828
I'd say that it happens now and then just like one human twin will occasionally die or be absorbed by the other. The only difference is that crow see it as a good sign, as the surviving baby has already begun racking up a body count.

Okay so this is actually a good bit of fluff and I don't know why you think it's pants-on-head retarded. It's by no means the first xenobiology thing to pitch the idea of twins as the norm, only one of which survives to birth.
You can maybe explain why you think it's bad (I would prefer an argument beyond "edgy") and I'll explain why I think it's good: it makes every Drow already a murderer. It doesn't actually matter if this piece of fluff is true or not, even. If Drow society accepts this as true then that's enough. Any number of moral objections from young Drow can be quashed with this: you're already a murderer, you already killed, there is no line for you to feel bad about crossing. You crossed it before you could even think of crossing it, you were born bad. It definitely works within Drow society and it holds up the intense pressures and transgressive actions of that society.
It also means there's some room to play around with unusual Drow where both twins have survived (what's the social outlook on this?) or Drow who weren't born as a twin (or this?). How does death-twin Drow society regard triplets or higher multiple births? It's fun. This fluff works within the context of Drow society and it gives you a range of new possibilities to explore in that society. It's not bad or dumb IMO.
>>47478186
Drow in Pathfinder are like a type of illness that evil elves get.

>>47478181
Learn to read.
>>47489062
Futa lamias in Dragon? That's disgusting. In the magazine? There's so many of them though. Where? Which one?
>>47489588
Knowing Paizo, it's probably less fetish shit and more "Muh progressivism, check your privilege cis scum"

Ah, but /tg/ is about games, and games have RULES. So naturally we're pretty good at rules here, and that extends beyond simply games.
>>47489665
Eh...someone at Paizo (I wanna say Sean Reynolds, but I could be wrong) chewed out people for being chewed out about the Girdle of Masculinity/Femininity still being a cursed item, pointing out all the good reasons why it's still considered a cursed item despite how useful it would be to someone who wants to be the opposite of their biological gender.
So I find it hard to dislike them on that front.
>>47489760
Is Sean Reynolds the guy who often butts heads with JJ?
>>47488175
Welcome to 4chan. Enjoying your stay so far?

>>47488175
That's because you're only looking at what the board is ostensibly about, not what it's actually for. /lit/ is for smugly circlejerking about your own intellectual superiority, which ironically requires little intelligence or skill of any kind. /tg/ is for cultishly defending the only system you've been able to find a group for as if you had a choice, or an obscure system you've decided is your favorite despite having never played it and either way you have to at least skim the rules to even pretend to discuss them.

How's that any different from /tg/ finding mechanical benefits from curses or figuring out how to turn something mundane into something much more potent or destructive? Someone at Paizo seems to think like we do.
