Silly adventures thread. Bonus points if they seem serious at first glance. I'll start.
Royal degree declares that a famous female hero has gone Rouge, the party suits up and rides out.
Turns out that it wasn't a typo, she's just trying out a new makeup. And it is SO working for her!
No? Alright.
Between the time when censorship drank the internet and the rise of the boards of 4chan, there was an age undreamed of. And unto this, Klewar, destined to wear the jeweled crown of Omegle upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga. Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!
Got into Firestorm Armada in a big way recently. Can we just talk about how fun it is? That was always Spartan's thing, making fun games, and nice resin minis. With FA 2.0 they seem to have finally nailed the rulebook as well.

But Anon, we already had one of those in Radha and she is amazing. Did we need the R/G Wondertwins? And why did we get two R/G legends in the same block when it's a two-set block and not about legendaries?
>>44126919
I kind of like the wonder twins more than Radha since they facilitate more mana in the long term. Also, how can you not be tempted to try some R/G landfall list?

Welcome to another session of our quest kiddywinkles. It's been a week+ since we left off so even for those that were at last session, here's a little recap.
Our resident Gary Stu part time murderhobo part time Social retard part time ladies man Kyran Ollis had left his hospital bed, gotten up to gazelle antics, dismembered some padawans, gained a few new friends on SpaceBook, juggled a load of sabers and got a cool SpaceBook PFP out of it, wooed a Sith Receptionist, mind crushed the leader of a the task force built by the receptionist to deal with you, ran away causing brilliant diversions and distractions to run from an enemy who weren't chasing you, and then proceeded to mock said enemy by hacking into their form of the Jesus channel and mocking their way of life, and bragging about how you have "over 300 confirmed lightsabers" (actually you have seven and one ancient sith bowie knife) and that you "will shit force and you'll drown in it, kiddo." prompting them to actually chase you.
Which leads us to where we are, an encounter with two saber and energy riot shielded wielding sith police, wearing giant helmets and armour made of some weird claret almost material, flanked by two random guards with blasters pointing and shouting you out.

Might pastebin an inventory but cba right now.
>>44126658
The saber wielders charge you with a skill you didn't expect from randoms, but this is either the top of the top of the police force, or your specific task force, so obviously they're good.
It takes all you have to dodge both, using your arms heavily to shift your body weight around in dodges, not giving you an ounce of time required to draw your own sabers for defence. The shit blaster wielders also try their aim but really just end up getting in the way allowing you to greater the distance between your assailants, and further it even more when a blaster shot from one of them clips their giant armour, prompting one dead force choked guard, one guard on the verges of shitting himself and stopping firing for now to ensure he doesn't suffer the same fate, with one saber wielder choking and the other just being like "what the fuck dude"
You're ten foot away by the time their attention is on you.
What do?
Also roll a 1d20 for whatever you want to do
Also obligatory "this is 100% write ins" message, including what ships and weapons you want, who you want to meet, who you want to waifu and what kind of hairdo you want. Oh yeah we don't even have a description of our character's looks yet. I'll put an option for that in later.
Also, this is TOR era.

Gazelle the fuck outta there!
The mysterious witch in your party asks you for a private talk.
She reveals that there is an even greater threat to the world than the demons which she found when dimension hopping during her student days - a world full of massive, innumerable metal beasts and massive towers that touched the sky. And that they know where we live and that they're coming.
She tells you that she plans to unify humanity to face off the twin threats of demonkind and these mysterious enemies.
You are a special talent she has recognised and she wants you to serve under her in this task.
How does your character respond?
>>44125963
How many beasts you've seen, witch ?
And how do you know they jnow anything about us ?
Until I've got more informations, I'll talk with Lorica's council to have more investigation going.
He'd probably drag her to the local king and force her to tell her everything she knows, opssibly under torture.

Topic of the thread: How're you liking Thaw of the Lich Lord, now that it's out?
Anybody playing in Colorado? Or are we all too blazed or too snowsports?
Digging this game.
Anybody has good 'default' starter warbands?
I want to convert some henchmen, I'm not sure how I should arm them though.
IS yu-gi-oh still fun to play?
I dug out my old light deck, and gravekeepers deck. I stopped playing shortly after they introduced tuners. I looked at the banned list and it doesn't seem too crazy, unlike Magic and Pokemon.
Is it worth getting back into?
I just learned about pendulum monsters and it seems like it really changes the dynamics of the game.
>>44119687
Anything past synchros and tuners isn't fun.
It depends. If you're getting into it for fun and can find a fun local playgroup it can be a blast. The competitive scene is a mess however. The pendulum mechanic has broke the game and the meta will soon be nothing but whoever goes first wins.
>>44119726
oh shit really? I thought you can't attack when you go first though.
I have a few friends who I can play with. There's a comic book shop near by that has done tournaments as far as I can remember.
Alright, besides Tales of the Space Princess, Rocketship Empires 1936, Space: 1899 (debatable), and that chromatic space babe game (did it ever get finished?) what else ya got?
I want chicks in bubble helmets and leotards fighting dudes wearing finned helmets and short-sleeve tank-tops in vacuum.
What are those. What did you just list.
>>44122716
Those are all raygun gothic-type RPGs that focus on an aesthetic and technology level comparable to what was seen in 1930s-40s visions of the future.
>>44119436
Listen, Brenda. Just because we bought an Amazing Computron that is both strong enough to carry you, and knows the way home is no reason to make him carry you, while drinking, after using the orbital atomic fusion ray so you can see the carnage first hand.
Have some fucking class, woman.
Why haven't you murdered your party rogue yet? They'll steal from everyone eventually so just kill them now.
I remember a thread from like a year ago where a guy argued for almost two hours how it was IC for his rogue to steal from the party so he should be allowed to do it, but that the party shouldn't be allowed to punish him for it because it was OOC for them.
Christ I'm getting mad just remembering it.
Because IC we haven't caught him doing it yet. Been rolling nothing above a 6 for spot every single time I could have seen him in the act.
>>44118582
How would it be OOC for them to punish a fucking thief for stealing from them? Were they all ascetic monks who cared not for worldly possessions or something?

The fucking Beholder our DM threw at us at fucking level one after turning to the right side of the labyrinth, after having rested from the earlier battle against skeletons and zombies. 5 seconds later the whole hallway was literally on fire.
Second place is a little imp that always tagged along the party member that messed up the mostAKA me
DMing my first homebrew campaign. One pc wants to be secretly a vampire ranger, any ideas how to run this?
Thinking of a scale system where if he has recently consumed fresh blood from a humonoid he gets a slight buff
Then per day he goes without doing so he gets progressively debuffed, in example an extreme would be disadvantage on every roll (say he hasnt drank for 72hours at this point)
To make it a little more fair thinking if he drinks any blood, in example a vial of blood or a random beast that the party slay, then he can sit his current level of vampirism, but not reach the point of the minor buff.
Open to any ideas or input.

Have you ever known someone who cheats in RPGs?
I cheat and get away with it and never get caught because no one can catch me.
>>44113097
Yes, it tends to be the people obsessed with bell curves for their rolling.
I lie about stuff (stats and strategies) to get people to react a certain way. Only done it a couple times this year but neither were in RPGs.
Though I don't cheat when it comes to actions and rolling, just lies.
