Currently playing GR tron, only missing 1 karn and the playset of groves, which i might sub for karplusan forests. Fucking groves are 60$ now its absurd.
What's the most "out there" character you've ever played? Not personality, but backstory. Who had the strangest origin, where the rules or assumptions were bent over backwards to allow the concept to work?
Have you ever had anyone who was put to sleep and woke up several decades later? Maybe a Mage from a Faerie Glade, or a Changeling who escaped 100 years after they left? Or maybe a year before they were taken?
Maybe you've played an alien, or the child of a Spirit? A spontaneous Embrace, of a corpse that died and became a Vampire with no real Sire (or an Ascending One who used that one Elixir)? If you've never done anything like that, have you ever thought about that kind of concept?

Last thread >>43810386
I read some basics things about World of Darkness and something seemed odd to me. Doesn't the way damage is handled mean that people who are already covered in damage take virtually less damage from things that inflict more extreme kinds of damage?
>>43849885
how do you get that out of it?
>>43849722
I once had an NPC in the works for a nHunter game that was gonna be a Malkovian with split personalities; one was a gay dude who sold weed and hung out around a college campus at night(the character's original personality), the other was a straight chick who did masquerade-risking graffiti all over the city.
I ended up not using them, though, and almost recycled the idea for a V20 game a few months back; only the guy was a male nurse who was still in the dark, and his 'sister' emerged pretty much any time kindred got involved. I dropped that, though, because it became clear I'd basically only ever play the chick in any interesting situations.

First for RW is a meme pair
>>43847639
have you considered the most versatile commander in the entire game?
Obligatory, get this out of the way.
R/W players, would you play your new dub strike IF she had haste. Or what kind of synergy would you suggest? More battle master abilities? And destruction? Combat damage into impluse aura on your other creatures and it?
what does /tg/ think to lamentations flame princess?
>>43844846
I just don't see the point of most of the modules, really.
>>43844846
It makes Basic playable.
But the monsters and overall philosophy behind the module and adventures is gay, and the spell lists are godawful.
If there was a more 'core' fantasy set of rules to fix it, it'd be great, though.
It's too goddamn edgy.
>>43844869
Quite a few of them are really good dungeoncrawls? I'm not a fan of LotFP's edgy aesthetic but stuff like The God That Crawls or the redone Death Frost Doom have a lot of mileage in them.
Of course there are a lot of dross adventures too.

>>43844275
So looking to do a "nonstandard classes & races" campaign.
I know I'll be allowing the PoW and PoW E classes, and a couple of the PoW E Archetypes.
I know I'll be allowing Ult. Psionics and a couple Psionic Archetypes.
I'm undecided on regular magic.
I'm thinking I will either go Spheres, or go WordCasting. I know some 3PPs have supposedly drastically expanded the wordcasting options, do they make it any good? Or should I just stick to spheres?
So, lads, I've been talking to a friend who dislikes the ranged PoW stuff and I'd like to know your opinion on it. The damage is garbage compared to full attacks, the AoEs are useless because three enemies at 75% HP are three enemies at 100% capacity, and the debuffs are single-target. Thus, the best route is just to snatch counters and boosts, which feels weird to him and stops him from enjoying that. Does anyone agree with this and are there any ranged strikes you feel are better than full-attacking?
Reposting for more opinions, although now that I think of it Thanksgiving may not be the best day to ask for feedback:
Hey /pfg/ I wanted to make a "good" dex-based version of the Brutal Stalker. I realize the flavor text is dumb, but I'm more interested in the mechanical side of things. Thoughts?
Graceful Slayer
While other stalkers may use agility and finesse, the graceful slayer is an exemplar of such techniques. Wielding light or one-handed weapons with blinding speed, the graceful slayer is a paragon of the light.
Disciplines: The graceful slayer loses access to Broken Blade, Steel Serpent, and Thrashing Dragon. The graceful slayer gains access to Mithral Current, Silver Crane and Sleeping Godess. This alters the stalkers discipline list.
Maneuver Recovery: The graceful slayer may recover maneuvers in one of two ways. He may spend a standard action to recover a single maneuver of his choice. Alternatively, he may spend a full round action to reinforce his presence on the battlefield, recovering a number of maneuvers equal to his initiation modifier (min. 2). If he does so, he gains temporary hit points equal to twice his character level and DR/- equal to his initiation modifier for one round. The damage reduction and temporary hit points stack with other sources of temporary hit points or damage reduction. This replaces the stalker’s standard maneuver recovery.
Graceful Strikes (Ex): Whenever the graceful slayer successfully scores a critical hit against a creature, he gains a +4 sacred bonus to his Dexterity score for a number of rounds equal to his initiation modifier. This bonus increases to +6 at 8th level and to +8 at 16th level. He gains this bonus only when using a light or one-handed weapon in one hand. This replaces deadly strikes.

"Just one question." You ask as your hand brushes against Renari's, not grasping it, but not batting her away either. "Do I have to wear the robes? Because really, those things look like they're about as itchy as a bantha's backside." You're still in your street clothes from Nar Shadda after all. These things have served you rather well, even if they could use a wash... you probably could too if you're being entirely honest.
A resounding slap of the face from all three Masters is one half of your answer "Yes, Zev, it's one of the signs of a Jedi. The robes and the lightsaber, they are what will let the common folk of the Galaxy know who you are."
Frag it that's not what you wanted to hear.
"No other questions then, are we free to go?" You ask in a chipper tone.
"You're free to go, try to get some food and ask a droid to guide you to your room when you're done eating." Master Tikran says, motioning that the two of you can leave, a flick of her wrist opening the heavy stone doors of the room once again, allowing the two of you passage out.
Once you're past the doors and out of sight of the council you give Renari's hand a light squeeze, shooting the girl a grin. "I believe I owe you food, don't I Rena?"
"That you do, oh brave Master Jedi. Follow me!" The girl replies with a smile, dragging you by the hand as she leads you off through the Academy.
================
The cafeteria was quite large, filled with your fellow apprentices and a few of the Masters you had yet to meet. Droids lined the back of the large room and were given the job of dispensing meals. As you approach the droid delivers it's automated response.
"Hello! Our menu for today is
-Roast Bantha with mashed tubers
-Dewback Steak with a vegetable medely
-A Nerf and cheese sandwich with a side of chips
What would you like?"
>>43832922

What cards are the best things to search off Dimir House Guard in B/G? The fact that meren can recycle transmute creatures is neat, so besides Damnation and Solemn Sim what other good cards sit at 4cmc
Can blue do that?

Syphon Mind

There's a ton others, but those seem like the best staples at that cmc in b/g
ITT : we post everything related to cyberpunk.
be it pets, peoples, augmentations, weapons, vehicles etc...
no stupid shit like pic related please
Define 'cyberpunk'.
>>43823345
futuristic setting like blade runner, but with a bit more advanced technology (no XBOXHUEG interface) doesn't have to be all white and slick, pic related is fine too.
Turns out that transfusions of blood siphoned from the bodies of godlike cosmic creatures from a dreamworld have extreme healing properties.
>>43822424
We knew that. Common sense really. Only problem is the side-effects.
>>43822433
Well every potent medicine has side effects. Could be worse however. At least excess body hair is manageable.
Could've been Anal seepage.
>>43822424
the next logical step is harnessing a series of these gods and siphoning as much blood out of them as we safely can, boxing them up by god and by proportional mixture for discerning clients and clergy.was it me or was the fight against Logarious overly difficult for a 'Souls' game?
