How dangerous would a BBEG human fighter with an aura of "realism and historical accuracy" be in a D&D game?
The aura is a mile wide. It acts as a dead magic zone, because magic is not realistic.
The aura deletes from existence any object that did not existence in the "medieval" time period that D&D purports to be set in: no plate armor, no rapiers.
All fantasy armor and fantasy weapons become useless hunks of metal that merely encumber the user while in the aura. Anyone trying to operate a weapon (or even throw a punch) in the...

If you don't want to play in a fantasy game, you could just say so instead of contriving a way to kill your D&D game.

Bow. Arrow. True Strike.
Fire from outside zone. McRealism Man is struck; wound becomes infected. With no access to Cure Disease, he dies.
If you stab him once with a rusty knife does he get gangrene and die, realistically?
>Reversible armour
Can it be done?
>>44062135
I don't understand what you're asking. Like, armor that can be worn inside-out as well an normally?
Why?
Does it try to kill you instead of protecting you?
Welcome to New Teen Titans Quest!
This is an authorized continuation of Humble Storyteller's wonderful Teen Titans Quest that sadly Humble isn't able to continue, and hasn't been updated in 18 months. (If you're reading this Humble, I wasn't using this name in the afterparty when you authorized it, to avoid confusion)
For those not familiar and would like to read Humble's quest, it's all here in the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/cEFrBd9d
Please note that New Teen Titans Quest ignores everything that happened after Gotham...

You are a young man in his late teens. You’ve been away from home for a long time, and your appearance shows it. The rucksack over your shoulder is dirty and worn, your black T-shirt bearing the white eye of Horus has several stains and knees of your jeans are torn open.
You are standing in front of Titan’s Tower, it’s well past midnight.
It’s been a long, lonely 18 months since you’ve last stepped foot inside, or seen your former team mates: the Teen Titans. After a particularly painful failure on your part that cost too many people their lives, you...

What kind of RPG can create this kind of reaction out of players.

It's a strange sensation, dreaming while passed out. It's more like a hallucination than anything else, your mind drifting uncontrollably, and it's rather jarring having Angie there, keeping part of you conscious to converse with you. It's hard to tell what shapes or images are around you, but Angie moves through the jumbled imaginings like a fish through water.
“Looks like you got pretty messed up in the head. You're out cold. Nearly dead, actually, but you're recovering. Someone is taking very good care of you.”

“Aww, you can't even speak. Has my beauty stolen all your words away? Or are you just concussed from passing out and hitting your head on a rock? Probably the second one. Well, I'll leave you to it. Have fun with your nightmare monster thing.”
Angie vanishes and the world around you loses all cohesion. You fall into darkness, your fear creeping at your back, and drift.

Same system as Become The Dragon Quest. If you don't know what that is, it's best of three d20 rolls. I name a stat that sums up what you're trying to do, and if I don't name a relevant skill, you try to fill in the blank based on what you're trying to accomplish. “Break open the door” might be Strength based, but if you've been playing baseball after school and there's a lead pipe nearby, you could apply your Baseball...

Are there any tabletop rpgs that are specifically designed for playing games like Castlevania or Ravenloft. Ravenloft is close to what I'm looking for, but I'm not a fan that it comes attached to the D&D system.
>but I'm not a fan that it comes attached to the D&D system.
I'm sorry, but the only system that I could recommend for someone as gay as you is GURPS, and that's a horrible system that I wouldn't want to inflict on my worst enemy.
Not OP, but can we have more Castlevania discussion?

Alright.
Just ask if you need something or offer if you have something to share.
I'll start by sharing this. I promised this to /tg/ a month back or so: Dominion Tank Police The RPG

It is probably a pretty bad scan but it was the best I could do since it was the first time using the damn scanner. The chapter covers all got screwed up for some reason but I guess it is readable and does it's job. A better scan might follow sometime, this should do the job however.
aww shieeet, thanks for delivery anon
fucking loved the tank police animu back in the 90's, I should rewatch it later tonite

I should also apologize for the huge filesize. 120MB is a little big for 167 pages... the scanner gives no option with what quality you want to scan

Now, somebody got to deliver the Demon City Shinjuku RPG. Same company, same system. The anime was pretty shit if you compare it to the awsomeness that is Tank Police but the internet needs this fucking game for completion sake. I mean, we have a fucking filthy frank homebrew but no scan of an official Demon City Shinjuku RPG? What the shit

No.
This thread is now about cats and their roles in your games.
How have you used cats /tg/?
In my last game, the Goddess of Luck preferred using cats as her agents.

It takes a while to separate the majority of your plant body from the massive corpse, you leave just enough active through the portals to finish your exploration and looting with Xmar, maybe you’ll get lucky and find something more interesting. The hordes of undead and trillions of skeletons ready for reanimation, your consider reanimating them but your mind is being pulled in so many directions you’re a bit busy for the moment, you teleport someplace else. You consider turning them into a mass of symbiotic fighters for the world eater but it’s probably better to ask if...

The peaceful serenity of the death defying mating dive is broken by your collision with the ground – neither you nor Izulu gave up and together you slam into your roots, vines and leaves. The impact snaps Izulu back to conscious thought, and she morphs back to human form. The surprised bird smiles and embraces you, you catch a glimmer of happiness and pride as she tucks a feather into your plant based clothing. She then goes in for a rather clumsy kiss, you feel in her mind the times she’s watched and she tries to replicate what she saw with a bit of desperate vigor.

If you've got a house rule (1e, 2e, or even oWoD) feel free to share it. What do you do in your games to make things run smoother? Does anyone want to stat up some NPCs? Maybe some monsters? Do you have any homebrews to share? If anyone has advice on making a Chummer style sheet generator, that'd be super helpful.

>How do new Werewolves choose their Tribe? In fact, how do Tribes work in the whole Pack structure?
Werewolves choose their tribe by showing an interest in its philosophy and proving themselves to its totem enough for that Firstborn to welcome them into its fold. Or they're brought up by members of a tribe. Or the Firstborn comes to them (which happens to a lot of Cahalith and Bone Shadows).

You were confused, wounded, tired and furious…but it was all worth it, was it?
Your descent towards the guts of the undercity gave you nothing but more questions. You had been the objective of a botched assassination attempt by a group of miners that was lead by Petra, a teenager psyker that apparently could glimpse the future in her dreams. This was the second time a seer told you that you were the cause of a future catastrophe of apocalyptic proportions. In both times the ones that saw that apparently unavoidable future tried to kill you in a desperate attempt to...

“We have managed to kill most of the attackers, their leader has run away. They won’t bother us again.” You told to the eccentric Magus that was waiting for you.
That was surely a lie as the possibilities of them attacking again were incredibly high. You knew that, and without a doubt many others did too. It didn’t matter much that people were able to see thru your false words or not, all you cared about was discovering the truth.
