Fuck the pre-conceived notion that dwarfs speak like Scottish accents. As DM, in my campaign I've given them all a tinge of Russian.

How do you guys break the walls of type-castery and falling in to "stereotypes" in your campaigns?

In 5e, anyone can take the Magic Initiate feat, and get a 1st level spell they can cast once a day, and Find Familiar just so happens to be a 1st level spell (you also get two cantrips).

That means if you want a familiar, you got a familiar, regardless of class.

So, if you are a rogue, you've really got no excuse to not have a raccoon buddy.
What other animal/class combinations are awesome?

Hey tee-gee. I need help making th e most broken character possible. My DM has challenged the party into making the most ridiculous party ever, because he is trying to kill us from the get go. He said we will be fifth level characters, and can be anything as long as it is related to 4th edition.

You are Vaius Taro a regular rank and file chaos space marine for the Black Legion. You were once simply content with killing the forces of the Imperium for the Dark Gods. Now you wish to rid Abbadon of his position and lead Chaos to glory. You are aboard a chaos lord named Kath's ship: The Scourge. What do you want to do?

(Rolls are 1d100, which ever roll is highest will be used. Rolls that are 66,77,88, or 99 will be 'blessed' by one of the Chaos Gods and the effect is enhanced. And before you ask, yes this is based on Abbadon Quest)

What are the most common ways to start off a D&D campaign?
I'm not looking for the most creative or original ways to introduce the party during the first session, I'm just looking for the most typical.

>Tavern
Starting off in a tavern is the classic. There may be a tavern brawl involved, or a cloaked figure in a darkened corner waiting to dispense quests or rumors.

>Prison
The party starts meets in a prison cell. They may start out with all their equipment confiscated.

Why has GW focused on the Crimson slaughter as opposed to the multiple Traitor legions that have not been fleshed out at all? Do they think no one gives a shit? And why Crimson Slaughter, did they pull a rando warband name out of a hat? Its not even the most interesting warband to ever be mentioned(that would be 'The Cleaved), so I'm just trying to wrap my head around it...

I don't dislike the slaughter, they just don't seem like they should be... focused on over the legions

Help me /tg/, I'm not quite sure what to do about this.

I'm currently in an online campaign that until now had been really fun! Another player and I joined in the middle of a currently running game, so the GM encouraged us to have our characters know each other. Naturally I has no issue with it and the other player (let's call him X) was pretty enthusiastic about it as well. In the end, I ended up making a naive but optimistic noble with a bit of an arrogant side out to prove their capability and he played my cynical assistant. And again, the campaign was really fun for the first few sessions. Our players met the rest of the party and had some wonderful roleplay scenes while the DM kept things lively with some vivid scene setting and fun NPCs.

Then came the bathhouse scene.

It started out fairly innocent. My character acting all haughty and flustered at having to strip down and share bathwater with dirty peasants while the others were confused and amused by my delicate sensibilities.

Then X rolled to steal my underwear. And the GM allowed since he thought it might lead to "interesting interpersonal dilemmas" or something.

Then we found out X was not only writing really weird genderbent gay romance porn about my PC shipped with another player's, but he made it something his character would do so he had a chance to share it with us.

The GM not only allowed this, but he gave X gold and EXP for "dedicating himself to the roleplaying" and encouraged us to be more like him.

Needless to say, I'm a little uncomfortable by all this even though the rest of the campaign is really good. What should I do?

ADVENTURERS!! Help out a DM strained for ideas. I'm running a Pathfinder campaign right now, and one of my players "befriended" a succubus NPC. Problem is, he gave her the "I think we should see other people" line when she revealed she was in league with a bigger demon whose goals run counter to theirs. She offered the player demonic powers in exchange of course, but he spurned her advances and literally punted her out of a window with a giant hammer.

That's not the last he is going to see of her. Oh no. She's got a long history of messing with heads and turning heroes into despondent wrecks. In the real world, we have legends of Succubi who sit on the chests of men who have just awoke to find that they are paralyzed (easily attributed to sleep paralysis), and who suffer nightmares of having their... fluids stolen during the night. I want the former to happen, and the latter to be implied. I've cleared that the player is comfortable with this level of depravity.

My issue is how to make it happen. He's playing an alchemist, so he is immune to poisons (the succubus' preferred weapon). Is there some kind of curse or spell that can paralyze someone and lasts at least long enough for the succubus to deliver a spiteful speech before teleporting away with a piece of his gear? (Specifically his injector, which she will be using to steal his juices to make some evil half-human homunculi of the player who will come after him, groaning "Father...!")
