Tyr's decennial rains were late and the dragon was spotted. Kalak proclaimed games w/ 5,000 participants. The dragon would get his pick of 1k of the victors and the rest would be set free. The players started at level 1 as purchases by a noble on a plantation outside the city. The rains came in a deluge and they escaped, fleeing into the city as it poured for days and days. Recruited by what was left of a nearly-purged veiled alliance, they were in the warrens in the leaking basement of an inn, trying to find a way through undertyr to reach the noble district. They freed one of the last surviving members of the veiled alliance through a daring raid on a villa in the templar district. Explored the undercity and fought some dwarf banshees and accidentally killed a cistern fiend not realizing that you generally don't wanna do that. They stole the plans for the ziggurat from a different noble's house and almost burned down market at Shadow Gate trying to get away. Then the campaign fell apart because scheduling fuckery.

The premise had been "what if Freedom, but the Veiled Alliance had failed and everyone was dead, and had to start over from scratch?" Didn't get very far.

It is actually. Even untrained males would beat a trained woman in an arm wrestling match hands down. ESPECIALY if the man himself is at least strong enough to be wearing half-plate like that.

yeah look at that, its a pretty good way to balance it.
Has anyone ever used it in a campaign?
>>
>>97277345
Yeah 2E will feel a lot more manageable as the GM but players most often feel a little more on rails. Still plenty of options if mix and matching them is your pleasure, but the highs and lows are very reigned in power wise. I'm sure you could still make an absolutely deadweight useless character filled with "flavor" if you felt like but that's up to you. Lorewise you already know its neutered they've been neutering it since and before those games you played even came out. Not a problem at my table
>>
>>97277346
I used it in a Hell's Vengeance campaign with my Undead Lord necromancy-focused Cleric, it really helped me act as a healer when you normally can't for the party when used in concert with stuff like Inflict spells or tapping an ally with this before spamming channels.

>>97277543
yeah thats kind of the idea I am going for. I am looking for ways to make healers, without the need for "Clerics or healers"

>>97277345
They are two entirely different games. 2E is obviously streamlined compared to 1E, but arguably the two games are so different that it doesn't even matter. It would be like complaining D&D5e is easier to play than 4e or AD&D2e.

>>97276961
That's not really what he's asking for, even if it gets the "spirit". That's more having an animal companion that's a human, he wants to just spend a bunch of money on cheap services to fight for him. Think more like a classic-style Necromancer.
In 1e, you just grab the Leadership feat and call it a day. 2E doesn't have anything for combat, but the Entourage feat can cover the other deals.

>>97277093
Ignoring the idea of a "good" Runic Body/Weapon spell would drive the fighter-fag arguments up a wall, this is really overtuned for one spell. A constant replenishing shield, raw damage (that stacks cause you forgot to say Status/would assume to be Item like the base bonus), and it last all day. This is kind of a "classical" spell design, admittedly. The kind of spell you would see in 1e or even D&D5e ala Shillelagh. But this kind of raw stat buff massively competes with every other stat buff spell in PF2e, and lacks any form of interaction. And kind of a pain to keep track because of the constant rejuvenation effects...

There is nothing average about that collection of subnormal homosexuals. if the far right was only Distributists, Groypers and other explicit anti-enlightenment figures you'd have a point.
It's bulked out by people who are merely "i like enlightenment but I hate niggers, gays, jews, browns, trannie, etc."
>>
>>97213989
Abiogenesis is real in Goblin Slayer. Even if you truly exterminate every goblin in a region, they spawn ex nihilo at a sort of low background rate. So in that setting at least the pest race continues to exist by literal magic
>>
>>97260385
Islam is not a western tradition, so no its not any degree of 'Right' in the west.

It would only count as Rightwing in the middle east.

Nice.

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.
