>>97396362>"we need a gm! we playing d&d!">player>choosing the gameThat was already a massive redflag. Anything after that was just bonus.
>>97396362>gee I wonder why there's a gm shortagePity them, but don't feel like you need to help them. These are the normies that made the game lame and gay.
>>97396362>tell them the premiseHere lies your error and saving grace: you dared to define what your game enticed (which implicitly set boundaries about chargen and gameplay) so the game they expected in their heads, and that they didn't even bother to signal, was made null. If you're really that driven in running a d&d game for strangers here's the trick for players retention: just say you're going to DM, nothing more and nothing else, allow everything a la carte in chargen and work whatever shit oc donut steel you get presented in a game that hasn't to be more deep than a continuous gauntlet interspersed with some non-combat skill roll and SoL quirky bullshit playacting (if the group includes faggots and women). That's D&D and that's the extent of the hobby when playing with people outside your cultivated circle of friends. Nobody wants to play anything else than Fortnite D&D.

>>97399571Honestly I'm glad I don't really have to think about my work too much or deal with too many bigoted faggots (although the fire departments are always a bit annoying to deal with, but I think that's cause they're just stuck in the station seething they have to hang out with other ugly fat dudes most of the time). I get yelled at quite a bit, but it's very rarely my fault and is usually just because people are scared or something fucked happened. Honestly if I wasn't working from home I still probably would've jumped off a bridge ages ago from the shit I've heard over the phone. I'm glad I don't have to manage stemfags though, at least none of the emergency service workers think they're geniuses outside some of the older EMTs

Have any of you ran your players through the Theater Kid Wood Chipper? How many of them tried to stick something in Acererak's mouth?
>>97388427Absolutely not. Ravenloft was written as a monster mash. It's probably the most kino setting.
>>97394261He still used the rules. He just made traps and challenges that having high stats wouldn't beat. Tomb of Horrors is actually the ultimate puzzle dungeon, which is why modern gamers hate it since they can't just faceroll it.

Any advice? They're all new to playing D&D as well as well so I'm hoping to fake it til I make it.
>>97398534Run phandelver, you pretty much just have to read the chapter a day in advance and you're set. More advanced GMing concepts are something you can look into, but for a complete beginner your best bet is to minimize prep and get premade dungeons, which is where the premade modules shine>im newShit i nearly forgot, make sure you pirate it
I hope you get exposed and lose all your friends, frogfaggot.
>>97398534As GM, present a situation with an obstacle in it, then players try something and you describe the reaction to that, using the rules as your guide for resolving things.Thats 70% of GM'ing and once you (mostly) learn the rules its all flows fairly simply.Try to know and apply the rules, but its better to make a quick ruling, write down what it was and correct it after the session is done then to slow the game down mid session with book reading.(When presenting your situation, Be open too many possible solutions, your players WILL fail if you need them to read your mind and succeed on a singular specific solution)As to not blot this post further, even though others may disagree, Your recommended reading will be looking up Deficient Master, The Alexandrian and Seth Skorkowsky for further fundamentals on GMing.
>>97398534The good part is that they're all new so many mistakes you make are not going to be noticed.

>>97358229I agree. I couldn't care less about intellectual property or artist's jobs.

>>973986871) Charge your phone2) Type up your actual questions and put them into context. Is what too strict? Relative to what other options? Do the players even care about the subsystem you're modifying? etc.
>>97398687By what I can glean from the image, your "rune system" seems to be a whole-ass conlang with astrological influences, which is not going to be sensible to run in tabletop because it's combining exact in-universe time-keeping with detailed semantic analysis. Apply more layers of abstraction to be working with clearly-defined mechanical elements instead of naked linguistics.

The average human can sprint at ~25 km/h. 25 x 800 = 20000 km/h = ~5555.6 m/s = ~16.2 mach.I doubt any of the opponents can survive or even react to an attack from such a powerhouse. Still, best use the Slayers Gun to ensure they die.I will spend the 7 days of preparation studying magic and learning martial arts.During the war, I will hide in an overlooking position. Once all the opponents are accounted for, I will quickly but stealthily get close and kill them.

Thread #02 Lean Winter on the TundraPrevious Thread: >>97090196Welcome to /un0/, an RP thread for playing a World of Darkness/Chronicles of Darkness Hunter. For any OOC questions about WoD/CofD, check the official general. >>97224887Rules:>We are acephale. There is no storyteller, we are not a quest.>This thread is based primarily but not exclusively in the nWoD/CofD game Hunter: the Vigil. However, Vigil is defined by being highly setting agnostic, with a system for creating entirely custom monsters that do not exist in other WoD/CofD games. Thus, you have significant freedom in what you want to play and what you want to hunt. Feel free to play a member of the Society of Leopold, or a member of the Lucifuge hot on the tail of a Lasombra.>Namefagging is encouraged but by no means mandatory.>Keep in mind that even highly experienced Hunters typically only have fractured pieces of the puzzle, and every table has their own canon. The night is dark and full of misinformation.>/un0/ is conceived of as an experimental end to end encrypted program that is very hard to compromise, retains very little data and purges that data regularly. Please play an actual Hunter.>Spoiler any OOC discussion.Happy hunting. Unless this thread somehow takes off like a rocket, this will be the last un0 thread for the foreseeable future. Towards the end of the thread, please give your feedback in regard to these shorter, limited run RP threads.
>>97395356Glad to hear that there are dedicated demon hunters out there. From what I know most hunters out there need to realise demons are very much real and dangerous. I'm no demon hunter myself but I know a few, they also go after wizards and such.
>>97395427We hunt more than just demons and their worshippers, but that'd be a specialty. I'm surprised to hear that most hunters you've met are skeptical about demons. Once you know there's things out there in the night, demons seem like a logical assumption. I'm hardly a religious scholar, but I'm pretty sure most cultures have something you could call a demon.
>>97395748They were new to this whole thing so I can't blame them, we're living in the age of science after all. Still, you'd think that finding out about vampires or ghosts would be convincing enough. Best to work with people you know and maybe include some outsiders who have shown themselves to be capable.
>>97395748Nta but there's a lot out there. It's hilariously easy to slap demon on everything when we just don't know about. Cause really, how hard is it to sell a vampire as a demon? But we can do better, we can record things better. Better records allow for better responses after all.
>>97395957Our philosophy is that there are many people who have the potential to be a hunter. When someone is subjected to the evil out there, offer them a helping hand and the chance to join your ranks. Don't force it, not everyone has it in them, but our strength is in numbers. My ancestor didn't destroy the demon and his cult by himself. When it started, it was just him and some fellow tenants at a boarding house. By the time it ended, they had a small army. None of them were legendary hunters, not then at least, but they overcame this ancient evil by working together and being smart about it. I try to recruit anyone I rescue who shows that willingness to fight back, to not simply take it lying down. It's this same commitment to a numbers-based approach that has led to my bloodline remaining hunters for 200 years. >>97399149Oh sure, but there are demons. Honest to goodness no nonsense demons. The types that would call a vampire a demon as rote are the type who only have a hammer and see everything as a nail. But demons, rare as they are, are quite real. I don't reject anything out of hand. I presume a monster to be real until provided evidence that it is not, or that it is miscategorized/misunderstood.

Some /tg/-related funny images and comics. YMMV.
>>97395414>Regardless, from a modern reader's perspective Achilles comes of as one hell of a manchild.From an uneducated or deliberately ignorant reader's perspective, perhaps.But, a modern reader who recognizes that Achilles was losing not just a woman who's beauty was compared to that of a goddess, not even essentially his entire purpose in life as well as what he had spent the last ten years building up, but also the reputation/social standing/financial future of all of his descendants, it becomes understandable that he was a little upset.It was an insult so grave that other men would have killed themselves upon receiving it just to spare themselves and their family the shame, and Achilles instead prayed to his mother, a literal goddess, to help put into action perhaps the one plan that might convince Agamemnon to restore Achilles' honor.Between his options (Petition a goddess for aid, accept the shame, or commit suicide), I think Achilles chose the least "manchild" option of them all, even if the goddess he petitioned happened to have been his mother. Being pious and asking the gods for assistance was considered a noble trait and was heavily encouraged in their society, so it's hardly fair to attempt to infantilize him for doing so. Everyone from Odysseus begging Athena constantly for help to goddesses physically lifting up their children and favorites out of battle and whisking them away to safety was on the table for the Greeks, so it's hard to point at Achilles asking his mother for help in a situation where he had no other options left as being an emotional overreaction.
