>But super genial and shit
>That doesn't matter much
>My friend, we'll call him Steve, rolls this Noble, Lord Wilhelm von Fremington II, but doesn't tell us the class
>We arrive in town, and everyones looking at us weird
>Turns out, animated objects amuck all over city

>Its a fucking living wall
>We fight it, and it nearly kills us all
>Wilhelm goes to bed
>After we all walk back to town, beat up, we rest at the inn
>At 4 in the fucking morning, Wilhelm wakes up and sneaks out
>Asks our DM, "Are there any girls aged 18-22 around?"
>That exact question
>He had previously asked the same question except ages 14-20
>He proceeds to describe how he puts on mascara and makeup and sprinkles green glitter in his hair
>He lockpicks open a girls room
>We sit horrified
>He gets next to the bed and CARESSES HER CHEEK

What were they arguing about?

Tell me about the vampires in your setting /tg/, do you have your own subversion of how they are portrayed, or do you play them straight? After reading the Vampire Counts army book I want to try and change how a vamp functions after drinking large quantities and/or special types of blood, like a dragon's.

I guess I subvert them. Was never keen on vampires, so I instead tied them into the same undead family as liches. It's all linked up in blood and death magic, and all for immortality. Through various means, mostly blood sacrifice, a sorcerer can become a vampire, an immortal undead monster blah blah you've seen it all before. Their bat-shapeshifting, blood magic, and allergy to sunlight and god isn't just disease side-effects, and is tied into their magical power. All vampires used to be some kind of mage. They can spread their influence by corrupting the blood of thralls through kinky biting, but it never goes full-on vampire plague on its own). Vampires must consume the blood of the living to fuel their immortality, but those old enough can ween themselves off of it, becoming even more magically powerful at the expense of their flesh. So the oldest vampires still kicking around are skeletal liches of limitless power and ancient knowledge.

pic unrelated. I didn't really have anything else for vampires.

It's sort of a subversion on the "noble monster", big castle and fancy jews kind of thing. They used to be powerful noble families, but after over-hunting and expanding their broods beyond any ability to sustain themselves they started to fall apart. So they were forced to engage in aggressive expansion to keep their bloodlines from starving, but in addition to their ailing state and unwillingness to let internal grudges die, their armies were eventually worn down and they were defeated. Most of them now live in decaying manors, shabby apartments, or abandoned estates trying to hold whats left of their families together and clinging to past glory. With the exception of a select few families that have managed to reclaim their old holdings or integrate into society, they're more like glorified drug addicts than anything else.

Inspired by ancient steppe cultures, or at least how historians back when talked about them. Roving bands/clans live in the high plains, riding giant bats and berghasts. Keep bats like hawks too. Live in the cave riddled hills during the day and ride out at night to fight each other for turf or raid nearby settlements for blood. Not very clean eaters, they really tear into their prey when eating them. Think Daybreakers if you've seen that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q63mRR3d7ck

Pretty diverse physically, depending on lineage. Vary from Nosferatu looking to more bat like. Invariably monstrous. All male, though it's up in the air if it's a physiological thing or a cultural one. The male Bloodlords just refuse to sire women.

Seems to lack Smurfs...

/tg/, do you guys have any cyberpunk music you can share? Doing a game and could use some good tunes to set up atmosphere. Glitch Mob's the only group that I know of that really fits the bill.

So I'm wanting t run a game set in the starcraft universe, post legacy of the void, dealing with the tenuous peace talks between the dealaam and the dominion, and how Ulrazej is working with the surviving hybrid to ruin it, I'm looking for ideas for how to flesh it out, and help figuring out the system and what stats to float over for OCS and enemies

Considering that Starcraft started as W40K but had the serial numbers filed off because they lost the license I'd start with one of the 40k RPGs or possibly try and combine them.

So dark heresy, rogue trader and death watch would be good bases, I can mix and match any existing rules for playing eldar to make protoss playable, should probably water down perils for psionics

Nìcola Šekularac, [03.01.16 22:55]
Hi everyone, I used to play to wh40k with the 5th ed and at the beginning of the 6th I had to stop (me and my mates had less time to play and to be informed with the "news")
I know that there has been even a 7th ed, so I ask you: what should I know before restarting? what has changed most? Any tip/advice?

You should know that while the game has never been balanced, I'd say it has never been as unbalanced as it is now. Some armies are ridiculously powerful (Eldar, Tau, Necrons etc.) and some armies are just fucking terrible (Orks, CSM and DE good examples of this).

Here's an overview of the seventh edition and what has changed and what hasn't:

https://1d4chan.org/wiki/Warhammer_40,000_7th_edition

Imperial Guard is now called "Astra Militarum" because GW is run by apes who love trademarking everything and they couldn't trademark Imperial Guard. Luckily for you, if you continue playing with them, they are pretty good in this edition but not OP.

>>44548509
When I started playing we had already three Space marines players, I picked the Guard and I liked it

Nice idea for an army though

Do you allow food at your table?

Yes.

Because I only play online.

Depends on the food, the players are expected to not make a mess, that is all
>>
At the dinner table yes. We take break from the game table around 8pm to have potluck. Last week was holiday leftovers; so various sausages, leftover turkey made into pot pies, half-drunk bottles of wine, and stew.

What's the roleplaying scene like in North Korea?

Everyone is involved in a huge LARP and the central plot is that things are fine. If anybody breaks character at any point and starts screaming about how they have to eat rats to survive, they're executed for trying to ruin the game.

It's a pretty hardcore larp. Probably one of those Nordic ones.

>>44547715

You sure? You already checked in the usual spots and retraced your steps when you last had them?

I mean, it'd be no big deal if they just charged you $15-35 like it was any other key, but dealerships now are putting fancy microchips in all these fucking keys, even if your plate armor doesn't have any chip-related tech in it, so they can charge you fucking $900 for a new key.

You both do your very best trying to kill each other. Surviving party (if any) is considered to be in the right.
>>
>>44546674
Might makes right

>>44546700

That kind of it. You both sort it out amongst yourselves with subversion, sabotage, and general dickery forever until one of you is killed by who or whatever and the survivor, if there is any, is generally considered the guy who was in the right.

You're unlikely to ever reconcile your difference because you're Inquisitors, not pussies, and they'd sooner see you flayed alive than make peace. It's more cutthroat than a high school clique.
