EDH is a garbage format. It's not fun, the only way to make it consistent is to literally only run combo pieces and tutors, and it's pretty much gay. If you legitimately enjoy edh then you probably have autism, as per this study
http://wiki.magicjudges.org/en/w/Judging_with_Autism
>inb4 your autistic self says "good thing I play commander"
This applies to commander too autismo. Youre a fuck boy if you play edh, if you play competitive edh you're even more of a faggot fuccboi retard. You all need to kill yourselves.
>>46147968
Awww, did the big bad UGx Goodstuff meanies beat you at EDH today?
Thats a lot of hate for edh my friend. While I respect your opinions I disagree with you my friend.
>>46147968
>EDH is a garbage format
True.
>It's not fun
True, but an opinion.
>the only way to make it consistent is to literally only run combo pieces and tutors
True. Pretty much defeats the purpose of having 100 unique cards only to really have a bunch of tutors fetching your important cards.
>and it's pretty much gay

I've been playing Zelda and it's been getting me thinking about how important bottles are.
What other things are vital adventurer equipment?
>>46146765
Ten foot pole
Rope
Parchment
Ink
Quill
Sewing Kit
Some cooking equipment, dining utensils, and a few simple ingredients are nice. Salt, Butter, and a few veggies can make all the difference.
Just because you're saving the world doesn't mean you should just eat whatever dried meat you buy at the goblin market or strange fruit you find in the creepy forest.
>>46146765
Lockpicks and stuff only made to be sold. Most vidya have the latter bu few tabletops have it.
Are there any good RPG podcasts?
>>46144280
Magic Mics and Magic the Ameturing are good if you like MTG
>>46144280
Nope. Couple not entirely terrible ones, but nothing actually good.
>>46144280
System Mastery. Also, do not listen to >>46144341 as he is wrong and dumb.
>This is a quest taking place in an alternate version of the Naruto world during the same time period as the story, with a few notable differences. You will be playing as Kon Karagowa, a young Leaf Jonin. Your character is defined by your choices, so write-ins are always encouraged. And remember to have fun!

Hey /tg/, it's been a few years since I've come here and I wanted to see if anything's changed.
When I left:
> RubyQuest had just died off, but was still easy enough to reference
> Touhoufags were killing the board, egged on by the popularity of MaidRPG

Well lurking the fuck moar hasn't changed. So get to it.

It's all just SJWs, Dungeon World, and quest/ERP threads now.
Everyone keeps to their generals, gamefinder is basically dead.

This much hasn't changed.
Let's have an original/unique/interesting superpowers thread, since I need ideas for a campaign I'll be running soon. Bonus points if they are something of a double-edged sword.
Powers I have so far:

How's these?
MIDAS TOUCH - A classic. Turn EVERYTHING you touch into gold, save for solutions. You have to eat all your food in liquid form. You CAN wear gloves to keep the power from activating on everything, but these gloves will turn to unmoving, solid gold. In fact, that makes all regular clothing impossible to use. You have to walk around in gold body armor. The obvious pros are intense wealth and a OHKO touch attack.
TRUE FORM - Can turn any creature into its soul's true form (and back). This is some more-or-less randomly chosen creature. It could...

TIME CREATION - create ten seconds of new time spliced between two other seconds, like splicing in a frame of film between two other frames. All immediate actions of combatants and such are reverted to a neutral state. Anything done in the ten seconds carries over into regular time, such as attacking an enemy, killing someone, damaging the environment, etc.
Look at it like this
[x][y][z] where [y] is the ten seconds of new time. Had [y] not been made, [x] would flow to [z] normally. Anything done in [y] carries over into [z], and can interrupt anything that might...

Nothing has happened. It's been two weeks and there hasn't been so much as a fist fight or even an attempted poisoning over something ridiculously petty. I swear to god if headmaster sent me here as a joke, I'm ripping his fucking throat out with my teeth, not my fangs, the teeth that are still human. Because this is...maddening, I swear I'll be barely human by time I get out of here, I'll be a whole new tier of insanity.
I groan, resting my head on the table, trying to tune out all of the noise around me, as Marlo and Mira laugh over an stupid joke one of them told, as Great dane just stares at me. I scratch the gas mask I've been forced to wear for the last fourteen days.
My skin itches, my eyes are burning, there aren't going to be any blood bags for a week, since I drank all of them and they can't be bothered to resupply this place. I want to kill something, more so than usual.
Whatever is wiping out bases needs to get here quick so I can get home to Maria and take this...fucking mask off. It's driving me to the edge. Why can't these people be dead yet, they're keeping me from Maria, and in this damn, uncomfortable mask!
"Feeling alright there honey badger?" Great dane asks mockingly, I know he is, that look in his eyes, so smug, bet that look would go away really fast when he can't move any part of his body.
I bite my tongue to stop myself from hissing in impotent rage.
"She might be sick, I mean, I don't know bout you dane, but when I got here, I was out of com for two months" Marlo laughs smacking my back, my eye twitching under my mask, as I nearly chew through my tongue "Honestly, I think we need to get a new filter or something, has to do with the water at least"
cont
>>46142673
"Which is why I don't drink it" Mira says, giggling happily, blushing, must be drunk, I can hear the blood pumping under her cheeks "Tastes...off you know"
"Yeah you just get hammered" Marlo says, smirking as he crosses his arms
I smile and sit up, slumping forward, feeling my own breath wash over my face in this chocking mask. I take a second to adjust it, feeling it's sweat covered insides rub over my face....I want my normal mask, that one lets me breath, and makes my voice sound all creepy and stuff.
"Yeah...well I haven't seen her drink anything since she got here" Dane says looking at me, flicking his cigarette away "And she hasn't touched her plate, either"
I Stare at him, snarling under my mask
And
What do I do?
[] joke around with the other two
[]....I feel like crap, lay off
[] Try to stab him with a fork 1d20
[] Make up an excuse
[] smack my head on the table
[] Glare at him
[] Blood control 1d20
[] I need some air...get up and go out of the base, so I can take of this fucking mask for a few seconds
[] Sucker punch his ass 1d20 + sucker punch
[]force myself to eat some of this slop *with the mask still on*
[] write in

What are some good ideas for Force-using orders that are neither Sith nor Jedi? They can be Light, Dark, or whatever special snowflake nonsense you want.
Bonus points if you have or will use them in a game.

I haven't played Old Republic but why would the son still follow his father after killing his brother?
Also the origins of the Sisters of Dathomere are pretty cool
>>46142681
>I haven't played Old Republic but why would the son still follow his father after killing his brother?
Something, something, Dark Side.
>>46142681
I assume because his dad would probably just kill him if he left.
Traps have been a big part of D&D since its inception. So why do the rules for searching for them suck so much?
>>46141643
They really fucking do!
Baseline 10% chance of finding one... c'mon - seriously?
Bullshit man.
Whenever I DM, I'm always allowing better odds - up to 50%. Mkes for more interesting smoother, and less deadly gameplaying.
Because the majority of DnD players, having never played anything else (much as a child would scream for having to get Chinese food instead of McDonalds for the first time) tend to shriek whenever something changes.
The best solution with the rules as they are is to kill 'actively searching for traps' entirely. Passive perception like it is in 4e and 5e, that's it. You either see it coming or you don't.
>>46141643
Originally it was supposed to be a pixel hunt with players declaring for very specific actions (Check the hinges, the frame, forgot the doorhandle, DEAD).
Then we got Search checks which killed off this bullshit but replaced it with the five-foot square procedure.

Index, middle, ring, pinky, thumb. You’ve spent the past week or so spent in hyperspace trying to get used to your new arm. Misri was doing all she could to help you adjust, as was Kuvasz. But as you sit alone in your quarters, you couldn’t help but stare at it. It was foreign, it was invasive.
You really need to learn to stop lying to the wrong people.
Still, there’s some… fringe benefits...

You turn your head to her, resting your arm in your lap. “Whisper. Need something?”
“The droids say that we are only an hour away from the Furies’ location.” She folds her arms. “While I am loathe to work for Mandalorians, I will trust your judgement in dealing with them. I hear they are not exactly the most experienced of their kind.” You shrug. Not going to argue with that. They’re capable, that’s why Reike wants them gone. “But also, I would like to spar with you, in private.”

It's dark. You're on the ground. Your chest hurts. The ground is wet, and the wetness is warm.
You struggle to find your feet. You have to stand. You don't like it on the ground. Even though the wet spots are warm, the rest of it is cold and hard.
With laboured breath you stand, and stumble from a light head. The pain in your chest goes away, and in the distance you see a light. You go towards it, and you quickly find your surroundings brightening. Not that that's a good thing. Your surroundings are pretty boring right now: all grey and... uhh......

So we all agree that this is the best thing that ever came out of BL, right?
But that's not the Ravenor omnibus

The book is undoubtedly good but that fucking retarded deviantart-tier retarded landwhale fangirl fujoshi namefag will show up.
>The Thousandfaced Demonking was sealed away by the Seven Legendary Heroes one-thousand years ago, swearing that he would return on the solar eclipse marking the millennia's anniversary
The Dwarves hide away in their mountain fortresses, bitter at some evil done to them long in the past.
Human kingdoms, elves in their forests, and dwarves in their mountainhomes.

Let do it!
First of all I'd like to settle one thing. The mental communication issue.
The Hivemind idea vs the Thread and Weave Idea from last thread. Both have their good points and capabilities and both have their bad points and limitations.
I'd like to either pick one or the other or mash them together to get the best out of both.
>>46136543
Before I get into it, I need to state the fact that Anonimi do have an orally spoken language so talking to one another in close proximity is a thing.
The Hivemind, which is literally a representation of 4chan's board system, with its segments for each one of the clans who are themselves their own board personified.
With it's "Posting" and "Lurking" working as a sort of a mental radio system. Everyone can hear whats going on on the radio when they lurk, and those that...
