>When you have characters in a game, how many backups do you tend to have?
I tend to just make characters for fun now, and so I don't really have characters that are specifically intended to be my back-ups in most games- rather, any character I have that would be appropriate is a potential back-up character.
>Are LE the best rulers to have if loyal to their country and word?
If they're loyal to their country more than their loyal to themselves, I'd argue they might just be LN instead of LE.
Let's make a Vault /tg/!
Posts ending in 5 add to the Vault's description.
Last vault was full of neckbeards, waifus, and S.A.T.A.N. let's see what we can do this time
The vault is shaped like a giant circle, with the promise of an exit at the end of the tunnel, they just have to get to it.
The vault is filled with Vault-Tec employees. They thought they were going to ride Armageddon in luxury. They were wrong.
>>43675157
The Vault is supposed to never unseal, instead turning the inhabitants into expanding the vault, making it an underground society.

Short Recap:
You risked your life and a little over half your savings in a mad race down a mountain. You won, but your opponent crashed. You rescued him and then volunteered to take his place in an upcoming underground racing competition in return for what would have be his share of the winnings.
Making your way to work, you were briefed on a simple mission by your boss (clear a basement of muta-rats) and then sent on to speak with Vice-Executive Rebecca Shan, whose husband you recently discovered to be a serial killer. You set your phone to discretely holo-record the meeting, hoping to gain some leverage over her to avoid having to kill your boss as a favor to a group of Chinese who currently posess your sonfu, Jeremy Yu.
“Ah, Esperanza. I was wondering when you’d decide to show up.”
Rebecca (Mrs. Shan) is in a relaxed pose when you walk into the office, leaning on the left arm of her office chair with fingers carefully interlocked. Her suit is milk-white with thin vertical pinstripes, making her seem leaner than she actually is. Her lips are curled superciliously, clearly expectant of a response.
“I hope I’m not late,” you muster, already uneasy.
“Not at all. I realize you have daily obligations to GEC and as part of our labor conversion program, little choice in the matter. However, everything discussed in this meeting is purely facultative.”
“Of course it is,” you respond, displaying your cultivated talent for false sophistication. You’re not sure if she buys it.
“I assume this is about yesterday?”
Her mask of confidence falters for a split-second, so quick that person with lesser skill at reading faces might have missed it.
“That’s the penultimate item on our agenda, Esperanza. But first I’d like to ask, why exactly did you turn down our generous offer of Elite training?”
“I didn’t reject it outright, Vice-Executive,” you reply, using her formal title with flattering care, “I simply wanted more time to think.”
“And you think time is a commodity that GEC can spend in bulk, do you?”
“I wasn’t aware of any great urgency.”
“Vincent,” she says, her voice softening as she uses your first name, “Let me show you something.”
She traces a finger over the pristine glass of her desk in an arcane gesture, clearly an intricate tactile password of some sort. A vast directory of files sprawls over the desk and as she scrolls through them, you count your lucky stars that the holo-recorder is on because you would never be able to re-create that from memory. If you can just get a hold of her prints at some point, you’d almost certainly be able to break in…
[1/2]
>>43675167
[2/2]
“You know my boss could really use something like that.”
The Vice-Executive giggles girlishly and catches your eye.
“I offered it to him already. But he’s so darn… pigheaded about doing things the old-fashioned way.”
“I can only imagine.”
“Now,” she says, suddenly reassuming her professional demeanor, “look at this.”
A file blows up on the surface of the desk. You recognize it immediately as a map of Hong Kong. Her finger flits across the map and presses down on a location right in the middle of it. A green-headed virtual pin lands in the place she pointed at.
“That’s our HQ. Now, ‘database, insert Scyth and MedCorp locations in Hong Kong’”
About two dozen more pins pop up on the screen.
“Those orange ones are for Scyth outposts and HQs and the reds are MedCorp hospitals or labs, Vincent.”
“I-”
“Don’t interrupt just yet. ‘Database, insert proposed Scyth and Medcorp locations over the next two years.’”
The red and orange pins triple in number.
“Isn’t that impressive, Vincent? That’s what happens when the people at the top see opportunity. Do you want to see what they see?”
There seems to be little point in declining.
She swipes aside the map, relegating it to the margins of the desk.
“Database, please graph the monthly counts for unique specimen reports going back to January 2035.”
A graph appears almost instantly, showing a long curve that seems to have upticked exponentially over the last year.
“Cross-reference to monthly GEC invoice counts.”
An even steeper curve overlays the old one.
“It looks like GEC is getting more calls than ever.”
“And stumbling across more mutations than ever. Hong Kong is experiencing an explosion of biodiversity.”

Information: A mission to hunt down a renegade Saiyan nearly ended in death for Azu, but Daikon put himself in the line of fire to save her life. Though the mission was successful, Daikon's self-sacrificing action rubbed his teammates the wrong way, particularly Rugula. Rugula challenged Daikon to a battle, and was nearly killed. Now, as Rugula recovers in a healing tank, Daikon trains with Azu and Soko
Welcome to Saiyan Quest. This takes place shortly after the war against the Tuffles, as the Saiyans look for more foes to battle in the absence of their old enemies.
Voting will operate on a first to five system, at least for the time being.
Dialogue is allowed to be added to votes, as are actions (though I'll ignore what I consider shitposting)
During battles, options will usually have a number assigned to them. After that vote has won, players will roll a d100, and have three chances to match or beat that number.
If a 100 is rolled, it is considered a crit success (unless 100 was the number you had to match).
If a 1 is rolled, it is a crit failure, regardless of whether or not the other two rolls are high enough to succeed.
If, during a battle, players want to attempt a writein action, that is allowed, but I am the one who will assign the number to it, so use caution
You're a young male Saiyan who fought in the war with the Tuffles. You are an average fighter for now, but have the potential of one of the greatest warrior races to roam the universe flowing through your veins. There is no limit to what you can accomplish through blood, sweat, and tears.

Ok boys heres the deal.
I hate Rugala, You guys hate Rugala, and Rugala hates us. That being said we cant kill her, it will not only go against our "Saiyan Unity" stance,but im sure if we beat her while shes stronger than we are we'll definitely gain her loyalty, and who knows how power shell be the third time we smack her shit in.
Please guys trust me on this. Im not some waifufag im thinking about the long game. So when the next fight happens no matter what we need to fight and fight hard, and then spar her. Its all for the best.
>>43672761
Actually it's huge error in judgment to keep her alive, and we should challenge and kill her as soon as she's out of the healing tank.
We should have a three strikes rule, and she's out.

To get a little discussion going, I have a question about kitbashing. I've decided I'm going to use the primitive griffin (picrelated) as the base of my Swordsman kitbash. The torso, legs, and LRM pod all work basically perfectly. However, I'm running into issues with the arms and torso cannon. I think the Helepolis arm would work, but I don't know if I can reverse the arm effectively.
Is there a better arm for this? Additionally, what's a good choice for the shoulder barrel?

Why SHOULD witches be divine casters? They get their powers from an outsider... that's different than a god, right? Their powers also aren't really a matter of faith (unless their patron deems it necessary).

The one is a treasure trove of materials; games, minis, books, etc. No space to play, and owned/operated by a 60 year old dude who would rather sit around their one table, play the world's most drawn-out game of MtG, and ignore customers. The other is run by young guys in their 20s and early 30s (unsure if they are the owners or who is) who do the same thing, essentially. Or if they aren't ignoring you, they are pushing product on you that you weren't even looking at. When you go to check out, they ring you up fast, and god forbid you ask them a question about a product or game; you're taking away their precious Magic time!
