You are Irue Valen, blood heir to House Valen, and currently on a rather strict deadline to accomplish not one, but three different things that would take entire teams of trained professionals at least a week to accomplish. This was just another in a long series of unreasonable expectations that had been forced upon you lately, and it's something that you've reluctantly accepted as the norm for you. Admittedly, things could have been more difficult if you hadn't managed to obtain the frosted face-changing Relic that had let you move about undetected for the most...

“One…two…three!”
As soon as the last number exits out of your mouth, the entire parties (barring yourself on account of your broken arm) swing their weapons at the barrier as hard as they can. There is a tremendous noise as shards of ice go flying everywhere, either turning into a fine mist...

Why doesn't anyone ever want to play good characters anymore? I'm about to start a campaign of The Strange and I told my usual group that they would all be members of the Estate, basically an organization tasked with keeping Earth safe. I told them it was going to be a pretty lighthearted campaign, fun like a lighthearted "monster of the week" x-files episode vibe.
And then I get their character sheets, and everyone is evil. Or rather one describes himself as a sociopath, one is a cult leader bent on destroying the world (without the other two players...

>Why don't people ever want to be the good guys?
BECAUSE GOOD IS DUMB.
>>44656496
It really depends on the player. I've always played good characters because I enjoy interacting with the world, building up a circle of allies and NPCs and maybe actually making some kind of positive change in the world. The one time our group tried an evil campaign I kind of found it a little... hard to engage with the world when we couldn't go anywhere without sacrificing their leaders to about three different evil gods and turning the rest of the population into spell components.
Just as I'm...

See, I love playing good characters, I just usually want a mild twist on it, like. "Starts mildly self-interested, but undergoes character development towards Lawful Good."
That sort of approach also makes playing monsterous characters more interesting, actually capitalizing on the role-play opportunities that arise from playing someone well-intentioned but not your traditional hero.
>Moral Greyness is a selling point.
>>44656458
Real life is morally grey you fucknozzle
It's just a way for the devs to make it look like their laziness was intentional.
>>44656481
And magic is impossible in real life, ya cunt.
What do you think its better?
Leave the goblin tribes alone and fight them back whenever they invade. This will, when considering all the casualties on both sides for hundreds or thousands of years to come, lead to maybe millions of deaths
The answer is genocide! The only good goblin is a dead goblin. A few dozen thousands goblins dead and gone. No more problems
Kill the adults, take the children and raise them as members of our society. Will cause lots of problems at first
>>44655797
Killing off the adults and Raising the Children as Shock troopers Would be best I think
>>44655967
No, the USA did something kind of similar and it didn't work out. Best to just kill them all to the last man, woman, and child.

>USA did something kind of similar and it didn't work out
This one made me laugh
Throughout the annals of history, legends and tales speak of powerful kings, brave knights and diligent saints; each spawning whimsical and glorious tales of their exploits.
However this tale is not about them. It is about you. The common man. The small-folk. The serfs and slaves. The peasant. You will tame ox and horse not dragons. You will harvest the heads of wheat, not the heads of enemies. You will learn the cycles of the sun and moon, not the cycles of runes and spells. You are the foundation to every great civilization under the sun and maybe through luck or cunning...

>>The arid savannahs of [Ki'Bodi] whose cattle and elephants graze in vast fields of dry grass.
>>44655590
Ki'Bodi, a grand savanna bordering a great desert. It's inhabitants have tamed many beasts that share ancestry to the wild herds that still roam today. Most of these shepherds of the high grass are nomads, but a few have established great trade cities fed the numberless citizens of the continent the livestock of influential cattle-barons. So what did those wise barons condemn you to spend your days as

What are some good Horus heresy novels? I'm thinking about getting some of them and I want to know which ones are the better and the worst.
>>44655423
there are none
>>44655423
Just do yourself a favour and read whichever one is about your favourite chapter or something.
You don't get any space marine books for a quality reading experience, you get them because you'd rather read about space marines and dork out on 40k lore than buy a book in a store that doesn't sell warhammerz.
The best 40k book is still just mediocre grimdark sci-fi, and most of them are pretty crap.
As someone who LOVES 40k and nerding out on lore, I'd still urge you to find some torrent...

Favorite manland?
Think the new ones are going to see play?

How should a good DM test the loyalty of her players?
Uh? What sort of loyalty do you expect from your players? Are they not llowed to see other people or what? I didn't know we were fucking going steady.

>It's like snakes in my intestines!
Hey /tg/, I need a little help. How do I justify beast races in a campaign setting?
Are they made from half breeds of humans and animals? Creations of Gods or Wizards? How can I justify them? Is it possible to justify monstergirl-esque human hybrids in the same setting or should it just be one or the other?
>>44654659
Don't.
>>44654659
~Magic~, you dumb fucker. It's fantasy, do whatever you want and pray your friends don't catch on to your fetishes.
>>44654691
Edgy.
>>44654727
That's a pretty weak excuse. Having both furry donkey men as well as people with donkey years is kind of strange.
What would happen if all insects on earth were suddenly possesed by a malevolent consciousness bent on eradicating humanity. Insects gain no new capabilities, nor do they suddenly hivemind, but they do start working together to kill humans, even among species that normally prey on each other. Our insectoid antagonists are no smarter than an ordinary insect and won't be pulling any bullshit like poisoning wells or stealing the launch codes.
Assuming humanity survives, what would earth look like in ten years? Fifty? A century? How would we defend ourselves? How would...

It is too late for OP. He is one of Them.
There are a million ants for every human on earth.
Alone.
If they were organized in a hive consciousness, we'd be doomed

"Where are we going?"
"To that big castle, in the distance." You point to the peak of the fortress in the distance.
"Really?" The girl riding behind you seems uncertain. "I don't think I'm allowed there. I should really be getting home."
Maybe you should just ride in silence. Every little thing this girl says is like a punch to your sisterly heart.
You are Yuuki Kuchinashi, and the last few days have been depressing from a big-sister standpoint.
Yesterday, you found out the 'princess'...

At least Biscotti is still clean in your eyes. Jack and Tuile are more likely to abuse their livers than another person. You're not sure about that sheepland, but those the two kids from there seem happy enough. Squirrel-land seems OK, but their princess is a looney. Thankfully, that's Cody's problem to solve.
Speaking of which, Cody left the job of asking around the castle about this girl's heritage to you. Something which he only did because he felt you were less likely to punch someone...

What's the most heroic thing you've done in a game /tg/?
One time I shared a healing potion and didn't charge the other PC for it

I *DIDN'T* rape her.
I had a wizard of mine lure a city worth of ghouls to him, and used a fireball to kill them at the cost of his life (and a portion of the city)
Is Niv-Mizzet a mary sue?
No.
He's a dragon... so same thing?
They're made by WOTC so they have to be.
Why are there no cute boys and girls with animal ears and tails in your setting?
>>44652870
BECAUSE IT'S HERESY
>>44652870
There are
>>44652870
Because my players would probably turn the campaign into a giant magical realm. They're like dogs pouncing on everything remotely sexual stimulation they can get.
