This is a second OSRG, seperate from the main osrg thread, where you CAN talk about 2e, retroclones, and any osr content you want.This is different than the regular osrg as due to rampant trolling from a handful of bad actors, discussion is impossible.
>>97221968A group of dudebro larpers on twitter or whatever, who were mildly comical in that they claimed to be playing AD&D 1e more raw than anybody, but got things wrong. Largely irrelevant and mostly gone now. They're also one of fishfag's many scapegoats for everything he doesn't like.
>>97221984They must use this place too lol, everytime I see anything OSR getting discussed there are retarded losers who don't know how to read the rules spouting off about how they're sanctified and beyond reproach.
>>97220767It's been more than 20 years since I've played 2e, so I had to doublecheck it but yeah, none of these are "strict", "core" or "non-optional" rulesThe entire section starts with an opening saying it lists guidelines not strict rules, and that there isn't one way that works for all, you should take what works for your tableand also these guidelines are fine and they will most certainly work

Dedicated Drizzt Do'Urden EditionDiscuss and post elves. Elf lore, gameplay, and art are all appreciated.QOTT: What drove you to elves specifically?
>>97221475It's a worthwhile sacrifice
>>97163705Meanwhile the pseud who wrote this wall of garbage nobody reads and the fags that screen cap/post it look like this irl
>>97200255Depends what your definition of prude means, but the ideal elven characterization when it comes to their sensuality is that: elves understand and readily accept they are the most physically attractive race and they take pride in their beauty. Flowers, sunsets, and rainbows don't hide themselves away behind layers and neither do elves - but elves also aren't rampant exhibitionists since they aren't whores and won't show just anyone the goods. Light elves would wear form fitting and thin clothes that show off a lot of skin but ultimately would leave everything but the curves up to the viewer's imagination. Dark elves would show more skin but they too would keep covered up since they're not common street walkers to be oogled at by their lessers. IRL examples would be women who wear yoga pants and tank tops to the gym (light elves) vs women who wear spandex shorts and sports bras (dark elves). You basically already know what their bodies look like but there's enough left covered up.
>>97217575No but its common in fantasyslop that there is no real difference between fantasy races beyond superficial features. Unfortunately 99.99% of post-1991 fantasy is fantasyslop including whatever garbage you're consuming.
>>97221880>they're not common street walkers to be oogled at by their lessers.

Why is it so common for fantasy rpgs that try to do the "Deep Lore" stuff to always default to Gnosticism or H.P. Lovecraft in a trench coat?
>>97216545>Buddhism is Gnosticism, just for East Asia.That's quite a shallow understanding of Buddhism>>97216570I agree. Glorantha has quite an interesting take. Too bad Chaosium is running Runequest into the ground with their schizoid indecisiveness on where to take the game.
>>97216420Simulation theory was implied in both Star Ocean 1 and 2. The problem with 3 was that they tried to turn it into a mid-game twist and that made a mess of the game's story.

Gnosticism is just true!IAM!
Ever had to say fuck it this is above our paygrade, and just bail from a dungeon?I get that GM probably put some amount of effort into preparing it and skipping the place would put that to waste, but when the very first encounter makes it painfully obvious pushing on would be suicidal, nobody can really blame the party for doing literally anything else, right?

And you?
I literally don't remember half of these, no, because as someone who bought the Book of the Astronomican when it came out you've made most of them up.It was never directly stated that the Primarch's were clones. Heck, they were just Chapter Masters and when they got firmed up just before 2nd Ed they were always stated to be genetically engineered, so they weren't clones. Logically bits of their DNA were always taken from others.The Imperium were literally breeding with Eldar in the RT rulebook.Salamanders were just black guys (actually it was never explicitly painted and probably just a coincidence from the guide from the paint set but lets roll with that) and the ashen skin guys was itself an incredibly dumb retcon.The custodes were 100% nothing because there were only four lines of text about them until fucking 8th edition.LE2 had a beaked helmet, but literally the second marine model ever, LE10, didn't.The Emperor being dead was always fannon that had a few bits of in-world evidence but just as much that directly contradicted it.The Emperor's motivations were always shady, given he was literally nicked from Dune and that comes with it.
>>97218175>Gathering StormYou mean literally the last time the lore was actually good?
>>97218823>the book was well-written.It was not.Fucking hated that book.
>>97222204>nice digitsWhy? I don't like the romantic part of the normal humans, but reading how the Legion fell was interesting and tragic, which I think was the point of the novel, a sad tragic story of the Legion that tried to achieve perfection and fell in degeneration in the process.

>>97218010[black and white, sketch-like] if you are still here and in a willing mood;"In a damp, torch-lit cavern, depict a scene of grim captivity. Two dozen small, fuzzy oortlings are herded against a rough-hewn wall, their large eyes wide with terror, kept in a tight, trembling pack. Dominating the scene is a single mind flayer, its illithid form imposing and cerebral, its tentacles idly coiling as it surveys its living larder with cold, psionic calculation. Flanking it are two immense, hairless mutant thralls: obese ogre-cyclops hybrids with sickly albino skin, a single brutish eye each, and crude clubs resting on their shoulders. Enforcing the perimeter are two bestial grimlock slaves, their eyeless faces sniffing the air, and two hulking, fur-covered quaggoth slaves, their claws and fangs bared, ensuring not a single oortling escapes its fate as future brain cattle. The atmosphere is thick with fear, dampness, and the promise of horrific consumption."

The giant's enormous limbsare stretched outward through the ooze's body, massive hands reaching desperately toward freedom that willnever come. The creature's face, though dissolving, is frozen in a rictus of eternal agony visible through thetransparent slime.A giant slime slave is an advanced form of the standard slime slave, created from a much larger crystal ooze andrequiring the sacrifice of a giant or other Large humanoid creature. The ritual is even more demanding andcreates a far more dangerous guardian. These massive oozes are prized by powerful evil priests and archmagesas guardians for their most important sanctums, particularly those near water or in flooded caverns.The absorbed giant gives the creature both its increased size and a more defined humanoid shape, making iteven more unsettling to behold.

>>97219622>Worldbuilding is an extremely small part of running a gameIt's actually fundamental to it. If you don't do proper worldbuilding, then you won't be prepared for when players do the unexpected, you'll lose immersion when you start making contradictory and disjointed decisions that don't fit what's already been offered, and you'll ultimately fail as a GM. These are cases many of us have experienced when we're flying by the seat of our pants due to lack of appropriate forethought into the world, but I can guess why you haven't...
