Ability scores. Proficiencies. Descriptors. Dice. And whatever items your DM starts you off with.
Oh, and I guess a list of spells if your character is a girl.
Everything else is a pointless diversion from roleplaying, story-telling, and fun.

I summon Warrior Dai Grepher in attack mode.

Vanilla ice cream? What kind of twisted monster is she?!

Yes, it's a girl licking ice cream. So what?
Ok /tg/ if i loot with Jace and there are 4 cards in the grave and i discard a madness card and dont play it will Jace flip?
>>46348425
Yes, you discarded the card. Jace ability checks if there's 5 card and it flips. If you pay the madness, jace ability resolves first and he doesn't flip.
>>46348450
I just read onther site that the madness card would go to exile THEN Jace checks for 5....
>>46348490
When you discard a card with madness you're given the option to pay the madness as a special action. If you choose yes it's put in the exile zone, if you choose no, it goes to the yard.
The creepier the better
Why didn't WotC keep this Orc design for DnD?
I really prefer it over everything looking like a 40k/Warcraft kind of orc.
It's how I describe them when using them in a game.
I strongly prefer old Warcraft orcs
WoW Orcs and 40k Orks are too hulked out or something
the same goes for goblins
it looks a lot like OTHER goblins while being a lot different
>>46345289
i like the current designs, but yes there is a lot less physical diversity in today's Warcraft orcs
but i guess i want to see each setting with a truly unique version of its orcs
Quick! You have 10 seconds to write an original hook for a campaign that takes place in a mecha universe (Gundam, Macross, etc).
Tweaking the rules of the universe is fine, as long as it keeps the general premise intact.
Hard-mode: no "PC doesn't have a mecha, but everyone else does"
Previous thread: >>46285338
>>46344701
You're building the first mecha in the world.
Because ghosts.
>>46344701
The party doesn't pilot the mechas, they're the group of people in the cockpit of the base yelling at the mecha pilots that they're being way too reckless
The party tries to survive an invasion of an evil empire that uses mecha, with only nomal weaponsI tought aldonoah zero was going to be like that
Is there ANY setting which does Tolkien Elves correctly?
I'm so sick of having either stupid edgy elves or humans-but-better who are really good at magic and archery. Or god forbid, both at once. Either be original or make a good copy. There's no need to even have a race called Elves, even less so if you make a shallow plagiarism. This is where the post turns into a rant.
It should be apparent that elves are not a common sight by the time of Lord of the Rings. Why else would be Frodo so surprised to see Elves in the first place, then downright shocked...

As a proposal, if you're planning to include elves as a playable race in your setting and INSIST in calling them elves and vaguely keeping the Tolkien vibe, consider making them a sub-race of elf-like humans instead, like the Dúnedain. For gameplay purposes they'll be elves, but won't have the baggage of having to act stereotipically elvish.

Check out Burning Wheel Elves.

When it eventually reaches max, the Elf is written out of the game, sailing to the west or simply withering away as his sorrow consumes him.

Anyone know a decent source for monster portraits?

You're welcome.

aureath / beastlyart / Liz Carlson is a furry artist, but does good naga stuff.

Question: Can normal people eat (possibly slightly burnt) dead Orks?
As in, on one side, we have a bunch of starving Guardsmen with their Commissar dead cut off from everyone else with no rations or anything but a bunch of Orks that they offed, and they're getting hungry.
So they eat the dead Orks, ignoring how they taste.
Are they going to up and die because of stuff in the Ork meat itself?
This is kind of a thing, because the Dwarf Fortress in me designed an Ork farm and I want to be sure it would actually be worth building apart from a setup for Beast House's...

Not certain but I'm pretty sure that so long as it's cooked thoroughly orka are perfectly edible just taste terrible.
>>46342039
Well...they're technically mushrooms.
>>46342039
as long as the fir kills off the spores.
Should I play 5e or Pathfinder?
>>46393676
No.
Pathfinder because it will eventually cause a stroke by someone who hates it.
Do the ten minutes of research it takes to get a feel for either game, and decide for yourself.
Likely, you'll want 5e since it's friendlier to new players, but everyone has different tastes and it's up to you to decide which game you like better.

What kind of 'theme' is best for a space civilization and why is it rednecks?
