Why can't something like this be used as a d3? It seems simple enough. You just have to roll it along the longer sides.
They are used. Most odd-faced die come in the form of dice sticks.

Just use a d6 with two 1,2,3 each.
How do you describe a Neutral Evil Cleric of a Lawful Evil or Chaotic Evil god? The only thing I can think of is, "I really like your aims, but you know, can you dial it down a little bit on the being a dick?"

This, after a fashion. One of the core tenets of Evil is being selfish and doing things that benefit you personally. You're not going to see anyone devote themselves to Evil deities because they believe in the cause, they do it because they were coerced or they think they have something to gain.

Where did the "elves are massive sluts and secretly crave orc cock" troupe come from exactly?
Pornography, believe it or not.
It came from perverted people on the internet and their chinese cartoons.
elves have always been sort of free loving hippie types in the imaginations of priurent hornballs. The influx of hentai and other porn featuring elves as hoebags and orcs as cuckolders is just a modern invention, less than 4 years old. At least, this current and specific wave. There have always been elements of fantasy orc rapeyness and elf bitch sluttyness. Like cream and chocolate cookies existed, but Oreos are specifically that.
>>46067470
And yet it only seems to come from hentai. Most elves in western fantasy are either gloomy and sad because their world is comping to an end or xenophobes that can barely keep their shit together.
Vampire bats form strong bonds with other members of their colony. Vampire bats can't be guaranteed to find food every night, so the ones who do find food share it by gorging themselves profusely and regurgitating the excess blood into the mouths of hungry bats in their colony.
As bats are social animals, should it not be possible to domesticate them?
People in a fantasy setting may breed vampire bats to produce narcotic saliva, and train the bats to regurgitate on command into the mouths of decadent nobles.
Really? That's the idea you had when you learned that little fact?
Instead of imagining a hated race of bat people that go on berserking rampages through the forest and occasionally even attacking villages, but who are tender and sweet to their own villagers and can't help the necessities of their diet? The most vile and hated ones who do the most damage to other villages are actually the ones who are the kindest and most dedicated to feeding their young and elderly?
With the PCs forced to face the classic dilemma of deciding whether the genocide of the...

You're asking people to care about things that are killing others en masse for literally any reason when they are getting paid.
They would kill them all, and be bummed out afterwards, but they'd still kill them all.
Now if the bat-people were not openly hostile to other villages and such and only a select few individuals were, or were defending themselves and decided "Fuck it, they're dead, might as well eat em." then you'd get a better reaction from the moral quandary....

What if they ordinarily just attack things like deer and moose, and rarely actually kill them, but do drink a ghastly amount of blood? And, when they realize that they're overfeeding on the forest fauna, to ensure they don't actually kill too many of the animals they start attacking farms for their large animals?
And, on occasion they wind up in a blood frenzy, either killing the forest/farm animals or attacking villagers?
I do think they need to be actually attacking villagers, but what if...

Hey /tg/ do any of you have experience with hero system? The system looks solid but I'm wondering if it can be easily exploited with only 200 points if someone didn't enforce the active point cap on powers. What are some examples of such exploits?
Sorry OP. You've fallen in love with a system nobody plays.
>>46064716
It can be abused on a horrible min/maxing way unlike anything you've ever played.
I've not played 6th ed, only up to 5th revised (FREd) so some abuses may no longer be valid.
Ranged attacks can be "spread" to either increase the number of targets hit, or to increase your OCV. On Energy Blast its -1d6 for each +1 OCV or each additional hex he spreads across.
200 points is 40d6. Drop a little for increased Endurance.

I'm sorry no one is paying attention to your RPG thread, but that's no reason to spam a retarded Stat Me thread. If anything, this is exactly the kind of dumb move that gave KBMD or whatever such a bad name by having it associated with shill-like spammers.

Kuru was kind enough to direct you to a giant monster you can kill and give to your Mom as an apology for breaking your house. She even said it has the bonus of being poisonous. Or venomous. You really can't keep the two straight.
She sent you out to the western side of the mountains by your house, and you quickly located the "big sandy spot" Kuru mentioned. You dropped a deer on it to lure the monster out, again as Kuru suggested.
You dropped a whole deer.
Most of a deer...
At least half of a deer. Look, there is some deer on the sandy...

Last we left off, we had, with support from the elves fought off an orcish warhost, unfortunately the victory came at high cost, with half our army dead and many more wounded.
After being slaughtered and abandoned by their leader, the remaining orcs scattered in all directions, fear overcoming them. Our men have captured several...

What's your groups policy on booze while gaming? Little bit for fun, drunkeness as the standard, teetotalers only?
>>46063526
I find GMing a lot easier when tipsy (I improv a lot so having a confidence boost to just run with my spur-of-the-moment ideas and to throw myself unashamedly into NPCs is nice) and usually drink a bit when playing (RPGs or berdgerms) since gaming is about all the socialisation I can fit into a week and I like drinking with my friends.
Most of the other players drink too, some don't ever, neither kind have a problem with the other. But this is Australia, our drinking culture is strong.
I tend not to drink while gaming, although I've had some amazing times getting pissed and playing beer and pretzels stuff or party games.
Also, whenever I run Maid RPG I make sure I am consistently drunk. It's the only way.
I play most of my games in a pub and we always get a couple pints and a meal before and during the game.
No one is retarded enough to get wasted and it's honestly a great setting.
I don't GM when I'm intoxicated mostly.

>Types of Arts
>The Red Art is associated with changing the existing physical universe or nonanimate matter. For example, someone could use the Red Art to transfigure bare stone into gold, to warp a wall into a door, or to bend the illusion of life into inanimate objects. Equally, a practitioner could use the same principles to harm by igniting the air into bolts of fire or animating swords to fight on their own (collectively called pyromancy). Predictably,...

How does /tg/ feel about characters that are non combative/ contribute very little in combat situations?
Pic related. Playing a mechanic kid in my SW Edge game. Almost good enough to be the skeleton key, but any time there's a fire fight I pretty much run for cover and stay hidden.

Boring and pointless in a combat-focused game. I usually let them die.
>>46062650
If your group depends heavily on combat to make it through the campaign, it's a bad campaign
Currently playing a Paramedic in a post-apoc game set in rural Pennsylvania shortly after a societal breakdown.
He started out with basically no combat skills, but he's been picking some stuff up from the Iraq veteran and the cop, at least enough to put rounds in the right direction for suppressing fire.

Before we jump back into the quest, thanks for bearing with me while I was sick. Now that Angie isn't knocking on my door, I can resume quest stuff. We now return to our regularly scheduled waifu wars, Oliver being equal parts incredibly adept and insanely stupid, and endless shadowrunning.

Same system as Become The Dragon Quest. If you don't know what that is, it's best of three d20 rolls. I name a stat that sums up what you're trying to do, and if I don't name a relevant skill, you try to fill in the blank based on what you're trying to accomplish. “Break open the door” might be Strength based, but if you've been playing baseball after school and there's a lead pipe nearby, you could apply your Baseball...
