Writing General: 'festive' editionWelcome to /wg/, the thread for all /tg/ related writing. Whether you're plotting your campaign, trying to come up with a character backstory, or just trying to write some setting fluff, this is the place to post it. You don't even have a campaign, just an idea you want to develop? You're welcome here. While the rest of /tg/ is arguing over monstergirl mating and which way rivers are supposed to flow, we're here to help you turn your thoughts into an actual finished product.As the successor to the Storythreads, we're also open to /tg/ related fanfiction (D&D, Warhammer, Battletech, whatever). In fact, if you've written any vaguely /tg/-related short stories, you can try them out here. We also have flash-fiction challenges from time to time.There's a discord for writers herehttps://discord.gg/6AwKHGFThe previous thread can still be found in the archive here>>96644454And finally an archive of /tg/ fiction can be found here:http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (dead link, but may be resurrected one day)https://2d4chan.org/wiki/Storythread (page missing, wiki still up)Comment too long.

Hi guys, I'm working on a new adventure I'm about to kick off and I'm thinking of giving the party rogue a chance to get mixed up with some fellow criminals and maybe join in on a heist plot, but I'm struggling a bit to come up with ideas of how to do that organically in a new area with no pre-existing contacts, thieves generally being rather notorious for keeping their business to themselves.The area is a mining town and I'm thinking of potentially having a ring of thieves there plotting to rob eg the mining company payroll or the local merchant bank, but the challenge is figuring out an "in" for my player. I'm thinking they might notice someone suspicious casing the target or something? Or maybe lifting a key off a guard? Another idea I had was that a miner or other local could mention that an out-of-towner they didn't know had paid or offered to pay unexpectedly well for some information to do with the target, person being asked not sure why but seemed a bit fishy.Still a bit unclear on how they could actually integrate themselves with the gang after a "tip-off" like this thoughAny other suggestions for hooks I could use or how I might further develop this idea? I'm pretty new to all this.
>>97309375Two ideas without making it too complicated>the criminals recognize the rogue character since they simply know how to spot each other>the criminals fail in their endeavor, or they succeed with some crime nearby, and the rogue notices it, and then decided to investigateThere is a chance that the rogue player doesn't bite, regardless of what you plan to do. Don't railroad him, but maybe you'll can let him know that he's missing out.
>>97309416Yeah nah, if it doesn't happen then it doesn't happen but I'm thinking I'll drop a hint or two that I can develop if the player goes for it. If they don't pursue the lead I might have the robbery go off as an event at some point regardless, to whatever result.>the criminals fail in their endeavor, or they succeed with some crime nearby, and the rogue notices it, and then decided to investigateGood ideas, but I figure generally a string of thieves working a big score wouldn't want to draw too much attention to themselves by doing other jobs on the side, that's why I was thinking of lifting an office or key or something that'd actually be working towards the main robbery. Having them try the job and botch it feels a bit dicey because how would that not result in the kind of heat that'd make them hesitate over going ahead with the job?>the criminals recognize the rogue character since they simply know how to spot each otherI dunno if most groups would just suddenly bring in a new member on a job who they've never met before and have no references for, but I've kinda been thinking maybe the angle could be like they know they've been made so they offer to cut the new guy in to guarantee they don't rat. I guess it could also just be that they're having trouble working out all the details and think they need one more guy to pull it off, but it's a little less compelling maybe?
Has anyone used AI as an editor?Already use it for research and spellchecking. But I wonder if I could let it run over the chapters for editing purposes, recognizing wrong spellings and faulty language.But I also don't know how I should feel about using a centralized AI, and what the company behind it might do with all the data. Meaning, I probably need a private, local AI.
Is there any way I can incorporate my fetish in my fantasy world without it becoming a magical realm?
>>97304721Should have been called Kinkers Gate
Has anyone ever run an adventure involving a fountain of youth and gotten away with it?
>>97310255Fountains of youth are unlikely to be considered fetish stuff I think
>>97288951It depends what it is, but even something justifiable or innocuous will be obvious if you're weird about it.
>>97311078I get you. A redhead witch, how queer.

>>97310423We used to have a few borg gf greens but I can't remember how they went.
The chromebooks have a section on cyber-animals that has lions and tigers and bears, otters, and sharks, but no horses. What's the deal?
>>97310423More for me then
Besides the core fanmade red module, any other suggestions for where to get started with Foundry VTT? It's kinda overwhelming but I'm sure I felt the same way about roll20 way back when too. >>97310423Giantessfags would beg to differ. Or especially Nephilimfreaks.

>>97311131Honestly I like this card and immediately began thinking up some brews. You can put stuff like modular creatures or off-color creatures into play. It's obviously not Sneak Attack. But I'm sure there's some silly builds you could make around it. Dumping a Karmic Guide or Clone into play is like the least broken thing you can do with it.
https://mtgtop8.com/event?e=78484&d=795834&f=LEOk so after seeing these two Legacy decks that use Leyline of Transformation, a thought occurred to me:Leyline + DidgeridooIt's just going to end up being a worse Show and Tell but nonetheless I think it could be a fun brew. Didgeridoo being fetchable with Urza's Saga is actually quite relevant though.
This is a general for OSR, seperate from /osrg/, where you CAN talk about AD&D 2e, retroclones & other general OSR. This general exists (and is seperate from /osrg/) due to trolling on /osrg/ making discussion impossible.Previous thread>>97275418
>>97311554>The art is great too.I love him tossing that in at the end.It's like he looked at the gunned-down remains of his shattered dignity, moving from room to room in the house that was his integrity and seeing every corpse he was responsible for, and then found the last remaining shred of his soul, bawling in its crib in the upstairs nursery, and he thought "Hell, might as well" as he put his gun against its head.

>>97311279This looks like a mess.
>>97311516It was kino. We had rules for the walls and courtyards. A lot of the terrain, like the gravestones were just low linear obastacles or sometimes just for show.

>>97311483>>97311491Im actually not perrynigger Q.Q
>the dark lord just wants bitchesIs this a good villain motivation?
>>97258165Maybe, though it would take quite a bit of explaining to convince me that someone with the drive to commit that degree of evil and create/destroy an empire would not simply learn social skills to become a pimp. It's the equivalent of working 20+ years in a job that is likely to get you killed instead of just hitting the club/bar. Even a psychopath would realize there are easier ways to achieve what they want.
>>97308681There's an association between black knights and death, so probably some permutation of arthurian legends.
>>97258264Have the goons steal their rug
>>97258165Neighborhood rapist isn't exactly the most compelling origin story.
>>97258165No. Getting bitches is not nearly as much work as becoming dark lord. It takes a lot of explaining why he doesn't just go and pick up chicks or become a rapist. Nor does being dark lord make you attractive. One avenue could be that he was the horny bard trope and pissed off the wrong magic bitch. Then he got twice cursed to be ugly and an insatiable gooner. So he'd need to become powerful to break the curse and or supercede his looks with his status.
I think the next revival movement in a sinilar vein to the OSR is going to be 3rd edition focussed. I think that granular, complex build focussed market isnt really served by 5e or pathfinder truly, and theres empty space in the market/community.
>>97310579>>97311025absolute shit taste
>>97311025What I want is a setting that players find compelling enough to make characters inspired by that setting, rather than importing their generic assumptions about fantasy (or not even fantasy, just dragging in their generic assumptions about 21st century american urban living).One of my big "I don't like any of these people and don't belong here" moments was trying to sit down for an Eberron game at a small down LGS. I was a Changeling Monk. Then I found out the other players were a dragonborn paladin, a pixie wizard, and a slutty drow cleric of lolth. No one else but me had even cracked open the Eberron book.>You do know that Goblins have citizenship in Sharn, right? This is actually the place to be a goblin and have it not be forced.
>>97311025so I'll just suicide my guy until I get to play what I want. Retard.
>>97311246waaaaa the other players are having fun waaaaa
>>97311025Make elves + orcs stronger but give them 2~3 racial HD. That way you can't start as an elf from lv1... though you can be a half-elf or half-orc, giving those races a clearer niche.
The first four dubs and above makes it canon. Those will be the constraints to build the setting around.
There are no orcs, elves or dwarves. In fact humans are the only humanoids in the entire setting. This does not mean that there are no other sapient species, but they're animalistic or even outright alien in appearence.
>>97304612Nah, they suck because /tg/ has lost the favor of Kek and cannot get gets to save their ass. Just look at how many appear in these threads.
>>97299248Most rulers of the world derive their legitimacy through descent from the Golden Emperor, who once united the world through ruthless but efficient conquest, incorporating many peoples of the world to his vast empire. He ruled for only 12 years but his legacy was tremendous, shaping the administrative system of the civilized world to a decimal system akin to the Golden Horde of our timeline.
OP here. We have three dubs:>>97299555>Crusader Kingdoms, Desert Raiders, magical artifacts from forgotten era.>>97304344>Hidden Dinosaur areas, native tribes often worship these things.>>97308033>A Great Conqueror figure that built a massive empire. All we need is one more.
>>97310360For all the great powers of technology and martial warfare, some of the greatest powers in the setting are to be found through singing.

>>97308630Elegoo is a good brand for resin printer, mars size is enough for epic titans, so does a mars 5 ultra or mars 4 ultra fit into the budget around your country?
Is there an STL you like to use for comparable paint swatches, whether it's a whole character or something flatter? I think a model that's a mix between flesh, metal, and cloth would be ideal.
