What kind of magical punishments would a fantasy kingdom inflict on criminals?
>Instead of prison, criminals can be sentenced to a length of time petrified as a statue.

>Blasphemy is punished with being forbidden from receiving magical healing, from priests of any god.

Which crime would get punished by being genderbent?
How would robbing the King's tomb unleash his murderer on the city? I don't see the connection.
>>43491840
Public lewdness, probably.
>>43491627
So, what about financial debts that go unpaid? Or kidnappings? Or slander?
>>43491840
Crossdressing in public? Fuck knows.
Thoughts?

Are they meant to correspond to MTG lands?

That's an awful lot of land for dwarves. Though the idea of a huge high fantasy world thats divided up among the races by geography is cool.
Another thread got me thinking and I figure /tg/ has a few but anyone got amusing or clever stories, schemes, or usage out of polymorph or similar magic?
Closest I have is the time our fighter managed to convince the DM and party wizard to polymorph him into an arrow and dismiss it just before he hit a target for extra charge damage
>>43490546
Classic "stupid fighter" syndrome. Clearly, you should dismiss the polymorph AFTER hitting the target, so as to explode them from the inside. Not to mention, that extra damage comes at the cost of taking a ton of damage yourself because you're slamming into the target at arrow-from-a-bow speeds.
>>43491146
You know, technically, turning back into yourself while being into a person's limb would also crush your bones and organs as well as make that person's limb explode, so I don't know if that's worse than de-polimorphing before hitting him.
>>43491401
Nah. Rules clearly state that, when changing size via magic while in an area too small to accommodate you new size, you get a roll to burst the enclosure, and the only thing that happens on a failure is that you only grow as large as the space allows. At worst, you'd get shunted out without harm to either you or the target.

We're a violently racist breed. Even amongst our own.

Ok here are the rules

>there is an large auditorium, modified to be a parade ground, with a commisar's voice on an endless loop through the speaker systems, as he orders a nonexistent guard regiment through their marching drills.
>There is a large, sealed room filled wit Guardsmen corpses and a bunch of orks. Someone apparently closed all exits so that Work spores wouldn't float out, and they decided the Guardsmen inside weren't worth opening the door. They filled it with gas and it killed all inhabitants, but ork spores remained and managed to grow up. They are now a savage group of cannibals with one slowly eating the others and becoming a warboss-tier ork.
>There is an old mechanicus workshop with many relics from the Dark age of technology. The only problem is that it's flooded in acid
So I've been running this lately and I was wondering what is some of the more broken stuff just so I can avoid the players (probably accidentally) using it. On a similar note just how worth it are the Trait Loises, we haven't really used those much and at initial glance some of them seem really overpowered while others seem utterly underpowered.
Doublecross general too, I guess.
The problem with double cross is it has A LOT of fluff, I kind of ignored Trait Loises as they were OP. Also angel halo is pretty OP is mixed with the shapeshifting one.

Chimaera or Exile?
>>43489063
Exile. It boosts range for skills at already have a lot of range. making your character almost impossible to hit.

Time to wage some WAR(finally)!
Currently you are in command of a standard Combine force based out in some urban terrain. The enemy is common but what their forces are made up of or their location is unknown.
Currently the undead have split of to ambush points while those like the AI have set up a command center/base of operations. The undead have yet to make contact with any foes.
Meanwhile our bread and butter forces are spreading out attempting to locate the enemy. Eventually they DID managed to find them and were even...

or you can SWITCH!
but that just switches to the opposing MC and your still gonna have to give orders.
Yes this means you can play both sides but never at the same time so you have to swap between turns if that.

The AI and SS will hold with us. To make a basic command base and focus on possible cyber warfare.
The undead will form ambush points.
The pred, if made for speed, will be support flankers. If they are hunters they will be used to assassinate/attack from the enemy's rear.
The bead and butter should scout the enemy and report finds. Then pull back to ambush points and hold up in buildings to Support Undead.
Keeping to my old thoughts for the moment.

Whoops, I jumped the gun and didn't read everything. Sorry... forget I posted that.
