>You are one of three characters: Samson, a spoiled bard, Dyrus, an axe-wielding rebel's son, or Rene, an orphan adopted by a high-ranking Director of an ominous empire, now a prepromoted archer-lancer.

Samson, his family, and his friend's family have successfully fled to Noba. Marion's warrior spirit reignited by the sight of her son fighting, she has elected to see to it that his training in magic is increased in frequency during their stay in Alder. Lazare is too "fascinated" with this new way of living to object, and Samson himself doesn't feel like pissing her off after watching her badmouth the king of the land she's seeking refuge in to his face.
After a brief bandit-slaying interlude, overlapping with the meeting and saving of some...

HYPE
Weird thought: One of Kabuto's signature senjutsu moves is the White Rage Technique. It sends out constant pulses of chakra to blind and shock opponents, sort of a ninjutsu flashbang. In this continuity, he was probably inspired to make it by Kon's bloodline. It is more or less a bootleg version of what we can do with our Shattershots.
Sorry Laze only got round to one scene, but an hyped, if I figure out what opening we're up to may redraw one pic for it so we are up to date.

What's the absolute worst session you've ever been a part of?
Session with an overweight crossdresser with delusions of femininity, an autist who thought screeching at the top of her lungs was good roleplaying and a DM whose idea of a good time was chucking AC 25 300+hp guards at us until someone died
Hey, I'm probably late to the party with this, but does a lvl 3 bear totem barb get damage res in heavy armor?
There doesn't seem to be the same stipulation as with the eagle totem, which means it should work. You do lose out on the other features of rage tho.
>>46356570
It was in Edge of the Empire. A player kept derailing the action so he could PvP. I have nothing against PvP when done right, but this event made no sense and was just to be a dick. We ended up losing a player permanently because of that session.

I sometimes wish Blizzard would remember that some of their mount species are sapient or near-sapient sometimes.
Just to see how they'd react to this insanity.
>>46356659
Yeah, wyvers, raptors, and gryphons are all at least semi-sapient. Most of the drakes are fully sapient, of course. Not sure about the rest.
I think sabers, horses, and worgs are fairly intelligent, but not as much as the above.

Post examples of power creep over the years.
do you even know what power creep means?
1 requires no colours, 2 requires a single colour, 3 requires 3 colours.
Colourless into mono into tri. The more logical frame for the next step would be a five-coloured Rhino of Alara..
You are an orphan without a name, taken in by the Church of the Torch from childhood and raised by them.

Today was supposed to mark the completion of your first 15 years of education alongside your fellow torchbearers. There was going to be a celebration and a ceremony, but the entire day is a blur.

Question the little one; try and get what we can from him as to why he needs a place to stay, why his scales are blue and why Gup's pissed.

Interrogate the freak. See where he came from, why he's here, and who he is. Also ask why the hell is he blue.

I'm going on a family holiday soon, which will coincide with two meetups - sucks, but what can you do? To make up for that, I'm planning on taking a few light games to teach the pleb-tier in-laws - Gemblo, Love Letter, Wildlife Rescue, etc.

No comment. Neither artwork nor components matter that much as far as I am concerned.

Depends on the person running the game.
In one game, our group as a whole opted to kill the mayor's daughter that we were sent to rescue (and blame the orcs that kidnapped her) despite my scout shooting her in the back with his shortbow...and us running her over...twice...with the wizard's carriage.
Beyond that...perhaps killing one or two PC's in 'accidents' would work to derail things as you learn more about the group.
Kill yourself.

First for Rebels S2 Finale tonight.
Wonder if this'll influence any future F&D stuff.
So does anyone else think that lightsaber duels in the current system are kind of lame?
I have a player character who is a runaway inquisitor and will get her hands on a lightsaber at some point so I've been putting some thought into the Inquisitors that will catch up with her eventually, how to stat them so that they're threatening without being overpowering, and I keep coming back to the problem that melee combat is just too damn D&D for this setting.
I have a Lightsaber skill of GY and my opponent has a Lightsaber skill of YYYYY. Because of how...

Just going to quietly repost this question:
just want this cleared up for me once and for all:
so on Pg 400 of F&D the rule with minion groups reads:
"-the minion group has a single would threshold, shared by all members of the group. This wound threshold is is equal to the sum of the wound thresholds of every member of the group... Each time any member of the group suffers wounds, the wounds are applied to the group's wound threshold. Individual members of the group are defeated one at a time, each time the total wounds suffered exceeds that...

Aashenpreet watches you from the bed as you gather up a length of her shed skin and crush it into the Soulshape cauldron. You also pull together some of your old clothes that got ruined by her blood and after a moment’s deliberation, a few Quedeshi shrikes. The brown coins sink into the concoction with a slight hiss. The reaction is already taking place.
You aren't going to mess this one up either. You need to show Aashenpreet your dedication and give her some proof that you can still be trusted. And...

This is a magical world that might be worked into a splat or a Quest. In this world there are Flyers. And there are Groundlings.
There are Castles made of semi-solid clouds and jangling, choking, primitive flying machines. There are subterranean monks and duelists that fight on starlit nights miles above the Earth. There are monsters made of thunderstorms that eat clouds heavy with the light of past sunsets.
There is danger and...

First order of business is that we really, really need something not called Sky Knights.
It just doesn't...inspire.
>>46352812
I don't like the idea of there being floating "lands" in the sky. If we do that the environment of the sky itself will suffer. Slow moving flying machines and stuff made of "hard" clouds will help show the immensity of the blue and white void that is the sky. Floating continents will not.

So wait, does this include the other places in the world or just these psuedo-European sky knights?
You see, a kitsune by virtue of not being a human, is inherently lower than the lowest human on the cosmic chain. Only enlightened and celestial beings are technically higher. So remember that, for humans have a good reason to be superior than 99% of races in most settings.
Why don't we get any cool powers?

Act like I'm going to give him the sweetroll, but at the last minute throw it in the air, hoping that they'll pay attention to it long enough for me to get a shot in on the leader.
