>>97360700Like >>97368608 has said, the concept just doesn’t fit. Not only is Star Wars awfully tame in the “gore” department. It also lacks the tone and themes for it. Star Wars is ultimately a very bright and optimistic setting. Even at its darkest moments when the forces of evil seem triumphant, their victory is never ultimate. It gets that from one of Lucas’s wells of inspiration: fairy tales. Star Wars is a fairy tale told in space. From Luke, “the hero of a thousand faces”, Han, “the dashing rogue with a heart of gold”, Leia “the princess in need of rescue” even if she also subverts the role by being the most competent of the three and their adventure to defeat the evil wizard and his ruthless, black-clad general. Luke even meets a weird magical creature along the way that rewards him with wisdom and a boon for being a good person Yoda, if it wasn’t obvious It’s all there. And those stories are innately optimistic, hell, even Rogue One is an optimistic take because, yeah, their sacrifice ultimately mattered. which honestly means trying to force a cynical gore fest of a story like berserk is just going to go about as well as trying to shoehorn cosmic horror into Star Wars, cringey.

Tabletop RPGs tend to split up crafting into a high number of crafting subskills for every individual area of expertise. There's no question that crafting is still extremely powerful despite forcing you to go through this hassle, but what are your thoughts on which particular crafting subskills tend to be the most useful in the context of a TTRPG campaign, be it a medieval or modern or sci-fi setting?Pic related is from Legend of the Five Rings, where I'll be playing a crafter soon, and I intend to invest heavily into crafting. But feel free to talk about any game you've had experience with.
>>97368142Being a good player means appreciating what the GM is doing for you and meeting him halfway instead of being a contrarian faggot who refuses to engage with the campaign premise, you won't be missed.
>>97369009>Being a good player means appreciating what the GM is doing for you and meeting him halfway"Go to the dungeon or leave my table" is not meeting halfway. It's not even meeting 10% of the way. I really hope you don't actually run games.

>>97333578>>97333590Alright, after having done this rolltable. Here's some feedback: It's fun.I particularly like the mechanic with the many heads through repeated throws and the nod to the Nibelung saga in the last category. Definitely keep that The colors are a bit too D&D coded and kitschy imo.Maybe make it twelve options instead (throwing two dice at once is always more fun) and tone down the saturation a little. For the specific color shade, choose one (free) or roll again to determine it. Also add some metallic options for variety. e.g.:>3-5 Green (1:Emerald, 2:Spring, 3:Fern, 4:Moss, 5:Hunter, 6:Forest)>6 Black (1:Smoke, 2:Charcoal, 3:Ebony, 4:Raven, 5:Ink, 6:Onyx)>7 White (1:Chalk, 2:Pearl, 3:Porcelain, 4:Eggshell, 5:Alabaster, 6:Bone)>8 Gray (1:Haze, 2:Ash, 3:Dove, 4:Stone, 5:Slate, 6:Iron)>9 Brown (1:Beige, 2:Clay, 3:Cedar, 4:Mahogany, 5:Umber, 6:Walnut)Comment too long.

>>97368774>Impericle methods only require 2 things, 1 ability to be observed and 2 repeatable.And if the locals cannot actually observe the causal factors because some are in another plane of existence, or crucial aspects are fundamentally uncontrollable?>It really isn't, because we're already observing higher-dimensional physics IRL.No, we're observing some things that some physicists thing might be better explained by higher-dimensional physics, but the bulk still look at it as 3 space plus 1 time dimension.>Think of it this way: We can't observe the mechanisms of magnetic fields directly in any way, but we sure as shit can observe when metal starts acting weird....That's a single step and is caused by observable charge-carrier behaviors, the indirectness is only the in-between force of how the charge carriers affect the magnetic material. What I am referring to is analogous to magnets literally not being possible in our standard manifold yet some weirdos manage to drag along ones in what is otherwise another where the nuclear forces don't exist. No amount of observations in the standard manifold will ever give you the causal factors because they simply aren't in it.By the historic meanings of "supernatural", rather than your retarded prescriptions based on farcical equivocations, the fact that the source is in a fundamentally different and broadly incompatible "space" well justifies calling the "magnets" of this counterfactual hypothetical such.>>97369265Einstein's expertise has nothing to do with the metaphysics that are the subject of this discussion, and so he is no authority on the matter. The nearest thing to a contribution was adding a bit more legitimacy to an already long-established form of hypotheticals by giving it a new name and some fresh results, but as he presented this with no actual arguments of the underlying philosophy it's not exactly a serious credential.
>>97369314>Einstein's expertise has nothing to do with the metaphysics that are the subject of this discussion, and so he is no authority on the matterEinstein? Not an authority on physics? Do you seriously think there is nothing to authority or expertise? Experience?
>>97369324On the philosophical explorations of what underlies physics, yes. Because all his fame is within the enclosure of science, many steps derived from such discussion.

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.
>>97364794A literal sense. Outside of vampires and plain ol' human crazies, I can't think of any creature that would go to length to infiltrate groups. Succubi and Incubi may due it to feed but they're, successfully, infiltrating. Alongside possession capabilities other demons are known for as well
>>97364794>Why would one need to steal the lycanthrope's power to shift between man and wolf?Because a lycanthrope is neither man nor wolf. A werewolf is a hellish beast that's some twisted fusion of man and wolf. It's a separate thing and that's why you need it's pelt. That's the hard part since werewolves turn into a man (from what I saw) when they die. You'd need to somehow skin that thing alive. I'm guessing that with the right pelt and proper ritual you could shift into other creatures, I'd need to ask my superiors to get a confirmation. Making pacts with evil spirits and other such things allow for many terrible things.
>>97364794There's magic that I haven't studied but I know about that would allow me or another sorcerer to become any animal we wanted. But it's not sinister.Then there's some really shady people who skin animals or supernaturals to wear their skins & gain their powers. Very dark magic & very different from the kind I use.
>>97362727I've never done something like this before desu so it was fun. I'm not very motivated right now to post, but in the future if these types of threads would ever happen again, I would probably be down to participate again
Quick update on my trainee. She's doing pretty well, already managed to track her target back to it's hideout. All that she has to do now is come up with a way to kill it. I already told her that fire works and the sun is a surefire way of turning these freaks to ash. I'd go with arson but I'm curious as to what she can come up with.

>>97368786No, Kirby solos 40k, just like he would beat the Daleks, a flumph, Pandorym, Jasper Stone, Darkseid with the anti-life equation, Thanos with the infinity Gauntlet, Batman with prep time, Squirrel Girl, Popeye, Carmen Sandiego, Unicron and Primus, Gunbuster, Demonbane, Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Eva unit 01 at 400% sync, the Incubators, the Q Continuum, Skynet, the Galactic Empire, Godzilla, Azathoth, every SCP, One Punch Man, Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, Joyboy, Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara et cetera, the Saiyans, the Kryptonians, the Xenomorphs, the Flood, the X Parasites, the Combine, Yukari Yakumo, the Shrike, the Culture, the Chtorr, the Photino birds, God Emperor Leto II Atreides, the One Ring, Power-man, and Mr. Rogers.

Previous thread: >>97295718GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by using the image. Never post direct links to the archive anywhere in plain text.If you're wondering where to start:- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.Thread question: what's the best classic GURPS cover art?

The accumulated effect of that change would have altered too many page endings.He chads keep on winning

So my DND group was kind of disolving, 2 out of the 4 players left because of life issues (one got a job abroad and the other one is dealing with life), to keep playing we incorporated 2 new players with not so much experience but avid watchers of Critical Role.One of these player conditions was that we incorporate x cards to the game, she says that it makes it much more comfortable for her to know she can avoid unpleasant story elements having this tool. I started to read a bit about it online and is this something you guys have used? In my 20 years playing I've never used this.
>>97368437Well I may be mistaken, if >>97366234 is accurate, then they may be intended for quick sit down convention games instead.
>>9736846780 is way too generous, anon.
>>97368499That’s not a trigger, that’s just a personal gripe that one can’t let go of, like when someone’s racist uncle refuses to stop ranting about immigrants even after being asked to reign it in for thanksgiving. There is a point to be made about not intentionally antagonizing people with subjects they feel strongly about, but most of those people who demand you respect their boundaries tend to downplay everyone else’s, so I get very incredulous about those sorts.
>>97368755>when someone’s racist uncle refuses to stop ranting about immigrants even after being asked to reign it in for thanksgivingI was recently thinking about just how autistically normie guys act. You only get clocked as autistic if you're interested in something outside the mainstream like sunken ships and DnD. If you don't have any weird interests no one thinks it's weird that you ignore body language, hit on a woman who obviously isn't interested, or rant to someone about a sports game they didn't watch. Hell, the autistic guy is likely to stop talking about the Edmund Fitzgerald if someone tells him to STFU. The normie guy will just bowling over everyone else.
