I've wanted to find a gaming group to play Ars Magica for quite a while, but never was able to. I love the concept behind this game, and hope to be able to play it someday.

Bump! I'd like to read stories about playing AM in the troupe style it's meant to be played.
Same here. It looks like 5e is coming to a close, so maybe I'll pitch it to my group for next year's campaign...
Can you run this game if you suck at history? I hate historic settings because there's always an asshole know-it-all at the table who will correct your historical inaccuracies and throw off your game. Fucking nerds
I didn't want to make my own thread, but I looked through the entire catalogue and didn't find any I felt I could drop my question(s) into. Basically I want to play rpgs but I never have before and need some advice.
Online options might be the easiest way to go, but I'm limited to a smartphone. How well are sites like roll20 going to work for me if I'm trying to play with other people from a smartphone?
If that won't work out, how can I find a group to play with in person? I don't have a group of friends I could rope into it, so I'd...

You're an ass, OP.
I want to have them play more of a role in campaigns and I wanted general opinions.
What would be some good trickery to do to PCs?
Any encounters with them that were particularly memorable?
Neopets had the best fairies.

>What would be some good trickery to do to PCs?
Let powerful fairies use hypnosis/suggestion spells to control NPCs and put them in hilarious situations.
E.g. super macho NPC suddenly gets in touch with his feminine side thanks to a fairy's magic suggestion and his low magic resistance.
Normally trustworthy goody-two-shoes NPC gets hypnotized and leads the party out into the woods after some treasure, they open up a chest to find nothing but bear dung. NPC is...

Civ games seem to have faded out because of CM exhaustion and general trolling.

“King strong!” The goblin paladin Xamr says as you continue to spar with him. Hours have passed since Hestia locked herself and Director Snow into a bubble of highly accelerated time. From their perspective it must have been four months by now. You can see the swelling of pregnancy now on Hestia’s organic body. From what you can sense Director Snow has been quite forthcoming with Hestia and is telling her everything she wants to know. Hestia immediately reprograms the androids and robots to protect from the coming invasion from the administration.
You learn...

The fact that the void could be felt for a brief moment was the biggest problem for the administration, since the black stone prison was created specifically to seal the power of one of the proto-dragons. Director Snow seems happy that you’ve broken a hole into the void and that it is open enough for void conduits to form. She even goes on to suggest evacuating everyone and tearing it open more, she is adamant that the resulting apocalypse from the dragons fighting will be better than the ongoing treatment of the souls. The administration’s practice regarding souls is very...

While you are left out of the time dilation field and so excluded from Hestia’s interrogation of Director Snow, you come to know all this when Hestia shares her reports with you.

Stage 106: How To, How Not To, and Pearls.
You're name is Ryuu Ryukusa, and you're on the horns of a dilemma.
Not literally, as you have no idea what a dilemma would actually look like, but you're definitely having issues at the moment. The problem is you have a sword, inside another sword, that needs to be taken out, but you can't do it by taking apart the hilt. Replacing things is one thing, but dismantling a kami would be dangerous, and not just for the kami in question.
Wakaba must have known the sword she was carrying was more...

The same dragonne that injured Akari damaged the outer shell of the sword you are currently studying as it lays across your lap, and while the Stone dragonne is dead, he has certainly left his marks in the world. Distracting him as Akari set him up for a killing blow worked wonders, but the lasting impressions upon Akari and the sword are a great deal less wonderful, especially since you have to get the rest of the metal off without damaging the interior blade.
Which leaves you right where you started –...

Ryu Ryukusa is tall at 5' 8", but this becomes 6' in her true form. She is fully grown. Lesbian top.
Kiku is 5' 1" for ever and ever. Lesbian submissive.
Akari is 5' 3", and has another few inches to grow. Sexuality is weird, switch, cosplayer.
Yui is 5' 6" and will only grow due to circumstances beyond her control. Dyke, switch.

I'm a huuge fan of Diablo 2. It's easily one of my favorite games and is also my favorite RPG. Now I haven't played many RPGs of a similar style so I'd love to know more like this. Just the style and atmosphere of this game is legendary and I want more like it.
>>43806914
My brethren of good taste.
>>43806914
Isn't Baldur's Gate similar?
They really pushed the M rating, what with the nudity and bloody dismemberment. You could really see some horrible stuff went on before you got there, particularly in the first two acts.
Trying to homebrew a Fallout setting based in NYC, and stupidly, I know nothing about what to make of it (NYC that is)
What the hell would NYC in the falloutverse be if not simply leveled?
>hey /tg/ I'm excited about [NEW MEDIA PROPERTY] and want to play a game in [NEW MEDIA PROPERTY] because I like [NEW MEDIA PROPERTY].
You should just play [NEW MEDIA PROPERTY] instead, because by the time you actually get around to finishing your planning, you'll be bored with [NEW MEDIA PROPERTY] and will have already moved on to [NEWER MEDIA PROPERTY].

by golly you're right, let me just go work on my undertale homebrew instead

An irradiated warzone of concrete, rebar, and broken glass. The shattered ruins of the old-world skyscrapes hold vast cashes of scavengable technology and resourses, but the unstable towers might collapse at any minute, and you're not the only one after the wealth they hold.
Also, obligatory mutated central park shenanigans.

HI GUISE
I had a goofy response to op's post.. but what actually happened was far better.
Hey /tg/, I've been working on a tabletop system & setting and recently I've felt a lull in progress because my casting system needs work. I've thought of a new system but it needs aid in making it easy to read for new players; here's the jyst of it:
>15 or so "Spell Seeds" (Fire, Mind, Holy, etc) and associated "Rituals"
>Each Spell Seed gives 1 passive ability and 2 spells to cast. This is the easy part, pick a seed and get your 3 abilities.
>You can learn a new Spell Seed by purchasing all 3 of its abilities over time.
>Some Spell Seeds have higher levels (Ice 2, Ice 3) to give more powerful basic spells and rituals.
>Rituals can be used by knowing the right Spell Seeds. Example, Matter 1 and Fire 1 can be combined to enchant your weapon with fire.
My problem here is that I don't know how to properly display the Rituals in a way that's easy for new players to understand which Rituals they have. Any suggestions on how to present them clearly, or any suggestions on better casting systems?
>>43806680
I'm interested in the idea, have a bump
>>43806680
Why organize them into seeds if you have to buy the abilities one at a time? Aside from thematic reasons, I guess.
Also, what's the incentive to learn all of a seed and not just its most useful attributes?
So I am going to be attempting to DM a D&D 3.5 campaign in a middle fantasy epic sort of heavy metal world. The ten main subgenres I intend to incorperate are Black, Death, Doom, Classic Heavy, Thrash, Glam, Folk, Power, Death/Metalcore, and Nu and each of these has their own sort of City State as well as "Paragon" that is a sort of living effigy of the genre. One of the themes I'll be attempting to tie in is that of Diablo II. Specifically, one of my players will be undercover as a humanoid Mephisto leading others to achive his goals in this world. One of...

Where the mascots?
Vic Rattlehead and Eddie would make great paragons
>>43806754
Funnyyou should mention, the mascots will be there to lead the players to the paragon and perhaps give them and item or weapon of some kind to help against the paragon. So yeah Eddie and Vic are definitely involved. Just not as paragons.
Bump for interest.
It would follow, that strong adventurers come from strong parents. How tough are your character's parents?
>>43806603
Well, she is a major volcano goddess and he was one of the few strong enough to beat down every other suitor to make her his.
He didn't do a good enough job, though, since she's our current BBEG.
>>43806603
>How tough are your character's parents?
Not very. THEY ARE DEEEEAAAAAD!
My character's mother is a level 12 Sorcerer npc with the elemental bloodline of fire.
His father is as far as my character knows, the leader of a mercenary group who went far away.
So probably not super strong

Rough wood forms gnarled ridges against your fingertips as you let them wander across the bark of the ancient tree. Through the growth of countless years you can still see the faintest sign of scars and gashes, wounds lavished upon the vast tree.

That's why you came here, to the fairy kingdom, in the first place. To do your research, to make your plans – anything, really, as long as you're making yourself useful. Mia and Cassandra are doing their bit, as are Joseph and the new guy. That leave you to take Elliot out and see what you can learn here – at least here, in the fairy kingdom, the fop won't be able to spend any more of someone else's money. That's one thing demons have over humans – who ever heard of a demon working...

You're still wandering aimlessly – are you supposed to, what, just pick a random book and start reading? - when you hear a quiet sound, the rustle of paper. Maybe someone to help you – or, even better, someone who can just give you the information you need! You're not an idiot or some kind of illiterate fool, but you'd be perfectly fine with skipping the book learning just this once. Time is of the essence, and the world is at risk.
