I would like to talk about the Chronicles of Darkness game line Deviant: The Renegades, or more specifically, one major upcoming supplement. Deviant was released in late 2021, and has had three additional sourcebooks since then. A new supplement, Black Vans, has been in playtesting for a while, and is currently being previewed.I am not being paid or sponsored to promote this book in any way. I am just very fascinated by it, and indeed, I already ran a mini-campaign using the playtest material.Deviant is, by default, a game about playing angsty, scarred superheroes who either fight world-manipulating conspiracies or work for them. Black Vans is a toolkit full of variant rules, quick NPC creation, variant character types, and variant genres. These variants range from the minor to the dramatic, completely overhauling what were once non-negotiable, foundational themes and mechanics. Maybe your character is not angsty or scarred at all, perhaps they are a """""regular human""""" like John Wick or Batman, or the campaign might have nothing to do with world-manipulating conspiracies.These variant genres include cyberpunk, high fantasy, post-apocalypse, space opera, and superhero emergence.This is a beefy supplement. For example, one chapter alone dedicates 38,000+ words to playing other monsters of the Chronicles of Darkness: Beasts, changelings, demons, Sin-Eaters, hunters (entirely separate from the variant rules for """natural""" superpowers), mages, mummies, Prometheans, vampires, and werewolves. No additional supplements beyond Deviant are necessary; the rules are self-contained, allowing the group to play a monster mash of an urban fantasy setting without needing a daunting 7+ books. And yes, they are supposed to be balanced against one another, so a vampire in the same group as a full-fledged mage is probably some older Kindred.(Continued.)
>>97235283If you pick the biggest conspiracy possible, all the characters are horrible, fucked-up Evangelion monsters constantly on the verge of collapsing into piles of radioactive gore and melting the entire planet into nanomachines and are only held together by love and hatred. It's Devilman, not D&D. The game doesn't actually want you to go bigger than SHOCKER.
>>97235301The game does, actually, want you to play at Standing/Threat Level 7 to 10 at some point, at least in theory. That is why the core rulebook has two Standing 7 conspiracies, Onachus and the Vigilance Society, and has rules for Standing 8 through 10.The upcoming Deep Dive supplement is supposed to detail ten conspiracies from Standing 1 to 2, ten from Standing 3 to 5, ten from Standing 6 to 8, and another ten from Standing 9 to 10. Many of them have already been previewed, mostly in full. Have a look at the blurbs for the Old Boys Club, the Stargazers, and the Symposium here, for example: >>97217974Black Vans specifically offers the possibility of starting at a Threat Level higher than 6. As far as Scar management goes, you can either:• Just deal with it.• Do the cheesy thing of picking the least inconvenient Scars.• Use one of the Black Vans alternate supernatural types, who do not have to deal with Scars.• Use one of the Black Vans variants that tremendously reduces Scars. The high fantasy and superhero emergence genres both greatly dial down Scars, for example, and there are suggestions for mixing and matching genres with bits and pieces.
Quick question:Can deviants be made by other splats? I read somewhere that you could.
>>97237624Yep. Basically anything can make a Deviant.
>>97237624Yes, this is referenced multiple times throughout the core rulebook, and Black Vans' chapter on other supernatural types repeatedly points this out.The process of making any other supernatural type, whether an Arcadian durance or a vampiric Embrace, could potentially generate a Deviant instead. Even just feeding, like a changeling absorbing Glamour or a vampire sucking Vitae, could potentially cause a Divergence.Similarly, it is possible for someone who is already a supernatural to become a Deviant. A demon, a mage, a mummy, or whatever could potentially undergo Divergence due to some freak occurrence.Black Vans' chapter on other supernatural types has rules allowing Deviants to "multisplat," in a way, and take select abilities from other supernatural types.

>>97236211Why do the men have tits? I've seen Pecs, and those are sure as fuck not Pecs.
>>97236299Everything is objectively better with tits. That's why a setting that is entirely female/futa is an objectively better setting than a female/male setting, because in the latter only half the population has tits.
>>97236299Ah I see we have a normalfag that hasn't journeyed to /d/ recently, those large breast-like pecs are a popular fetish with folks that like ambush traps and busty boys.
What's a fast, easy rule for passive attraction in D20 games like D&D? (I'm specifically running 3.5.)I was thinking D20+charisma:>5 or under they think you're absolutely ugly>9 or below they think you're ugly or just not their type. With some effort or favors you could maybe change their mind>10 They think you look average. Maybe if they were drunk, desperate, or in a particular mood... MAYBE>15 They think you're attractive. With a small amount of shmoozing you could get them to follow you to your room>18 They are waiting for you to make your move or may even make their move first!>20 They want to jump your bones and are at least slightly enamored by your presence>25+ They start acting like a looney tunes character whose eyes are popping out of their head whenever you're around.I'd like something slightly more involved than this, but I also don't want to spend a couple minutes every time a new NPC shows up to see whether they find me initially attractive.

What are some things that retired adventurers in double-digit levels could get up to in a city?I have an idea for a faction for the next chapter of my campaign being built around five such figures who hold different forms of formal or informal power in the same city, and are still on friendly terms with each other. Each of the five has a successful business operation or other field of influence which may or may not be related to their class abilities, and they can call upon each other for assistance if they run into problems of any kind.
Most adventurers either die on the job or become vagabonds once they cannot do the job anymore.
>>97237394Most. I want these five to feel like the competent exception, good enough to retire comfortably while still being "in the game" to the point where they get most of the reward with little of the risk.
>>97237367What game?Assuming 5e double digits is high enough to solo mid level devils and demons, so you're probably on retainer with a mercenary company defending the city or its more powerful institutions, leading your own prominent temple, enjoying high placement as a city official or as celebrity researchers/alchemistsReally this is easily solved by writing the characters first, then assigning them an organization after
Since you're obviously talking about D&D where even reaching second level as an adventurer means you've made more money than the average commoner will see in his entire life, these people are probably going to be too wealthy to care about anything besides engaging in unspeakable acts of hedonism.

I've decided in the new year I'm going to finally start putting my armor kit survivors together, and I'm going to put half of them in "stereotypical" loadouts and save the other half to immortalize important survivors at the end of campaigns. With that in mind, how does this sound for the stereotypical ones: >Unarmored: Bone Sword, Bone Axe, Bone Sickle + Pickaxe + Bone Darts, Catgut Bow>White Lion: Paired White Lion Katars, Paired White Lion Daggers>Gorment: Gaxe + Knuckle Shield + Gorn, Rib Blade>Silk: Amber Poleaxe, Paired Hooded Scrap Katars>Screaming: Counterweighted Axe, Lance of Longinus>Phoenix: Rainbow Katana, Paired Sonic Tomahawks>Rolling: Digging Claw + Beacon Shield, Juggernaut Blade>Dragon: Nuclear Scythe, Nuclear Dagger>Cycloid: Ink Blade, Skleaver>Rawhide: Cat Gut Bow, Rawhide Whip>Leather: Zanbato, Skullcap Hammer + Leather Shield>Lantern: Dragon Slayer, Bone Club + Beacon Shield

Merry Sanguinala-Eve, /slop/! The tale of the Techpriestess continues from: https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/97090988/#q97097155 Here we have the last gens of the dearly departed Old Sora. Requiescat in gloria ad aeternum.>Scarcely noticing as the Inquisitor rejoined the others, the Techpriestess ushered her guests onto a lift platform set into the wall of the Enginarium, promising the nobles that it would bear them to one final wonder on their tour of her ship. Yet as the platform rose out of the acrid smoke and arcing energies of the reactors below, the nobles stood as grim as men heading to the gallows. After hours wandering the automaton-haunted corridors of this cursed ship, there hung about them all a feeling that they were being led unto an inescapable doom.>Upwards, ever upwards the platform rushed, through hundreds of meters of stygian darkness, until with the thunderous grinding of distant gears, a crack appeared in the blackness above them as a set of massive blast doors parted, flooding the lift with brilliant golden light. >With a sudden jolt, the lift ground to a halt, depositing the party onto the wind-swept outer hull of the 'Pitiless Blade,' shielding their eyes from the searing rays of the setting sun that stabbed down through the thin upper atmosphere of Sarnath. Though little more than a ledge upon the superstructure, the Priestess beckoned the nobles to join her out on the radiation-pitted adamantine plating with a mad theatricality. She had promised her guests wonders, and did not fail to deliver, for who among Mankind could say that they had walked on the outside of a void ship?>No sooner had the nobles realized that they were not being conducted to a vivisection chamber than they congratulated Salafié on a most excellent "prank," and wandered out along the hull, each doing their very best to convince their fellows that they had not been in terror of their very souls but minutes earlier. All, that is, save for one of them...
>>97237722>Inquisitor Corsini stood at the edge of the hull, contemplating what could be the last sunset he would ever see. Though abandoned by his order and opposed by a foe even he could not truly comprehend, the day of his vengeance was finally at hand. The sabotage device was in place, and all that remained was to choose the proper moment to strike.>Interrupting his thoughts, the sibilant voice of Salafié came from behind him; "You draw close to the edge, my lord. Take care lest you should fall.">The Inquisitor scowled under his hood at the double meaning of her words and responded in kind; "He who walks in the Emperor's light does not stumble, heretic.">"He speaks at last..." Salafié drew up alongside the Inquisitor, gazing out at the blazing horizon. "But heretic? Surely you misspeak. Have not the High Lords of Terra themselves attested to my innocence?">"Do not speak to me of innocence!" the Inquisitor growled, his voice like low thunder, "Nor of your pardon bought with the blood money of that damned Rogue Trader. I was there the day your machines laid waste to my homeworld. There and on a dozen worlds since, I bore witness to your guilt with my own eyes.">"Ah..." the Priestess sighed, "So you are the one who hunts me. Am I all you imagined I would be?">"Do you mock me? You stand accused! Have you nothing to say for yourself?"Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.

What even are Spellshapers? What makes them distinct from other spellcasters and magic users?
>>97237762>Spellshapers are amongst the most narrowly focused spellcasters. They are salesmen of magical spells[2] and devote themselves to perfecting a single spell or selection of spells, relying on the mastery of their focus to making up for their lack of versatility.

After about 8 years since I last DM'ed a game, I've been asked to run a session. Unfortunately my books - adnd, 2e, 3e, 3.5, 4e, and 5e are in storage two states away.And i prefer physical copies. Thanks to critical role and the movie DND books have gone up in price which is weird.>4e books are ~10-15$ now. Is it viable to run 4e in 2025? I don't remember hating it and I still remember some home rules to streamline combat to speed it up a touch. Does anyone have suggestions for 1-3lvl adventures or campaign settings? >4e thread I guess
>>97236233This is a fantastic suggestion, thank you I'm fine printing off a few adventures and some extra sheets and errata and stuff. >Im running this for some younger friends (I'm late 20's they're in college) and I plan to give the books away if the game takes off because they're broke kids and I prefer basic fantasy, 2e and 3.5 anyway.Also I just prefer to have the books to flip through in front of me.
