Do you prefer playing anti-heroes or just straight up heroes?

I'm always just a weird hairy little guy with a chaotic alignment and a CHA dump stat.
But I lean into having CHA as a dump-stat and intentionally get into situations where I flub social rolls and have to fight my way out.
Because I like to have fun.

That is the meta-thread that runs through most of my characters.

Depends if it's played for drama or comedy.

Essentially; You are only allowed to rape people of it's funny.
Try wearing clown shoes, or honking a bicycle horn repeatedly during the assault.

I like playing goody two shoes characters (with an occasional sadistic streak) personally, but I guess that's just my IRL personality

Previously: https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/96936967/

When last we met, we made G.E.T.S. (Generally Entertaining Team-built System). Thus far, it seems to be a fairly minimalist system.

Now, we shall make our first setting for this system.

If your proposed idea gets doubles, it is canonized. Any canon characters, worldbuilding, themes, et cetera can be modified (but not outright contradicted or discarded) by triples, quadruples, et cetera.

Let us continue.

The player characters are on a quest to capture numerous fantastical creatures (up to a party of 6), training them until they are strong enough to challenge greater angels and become the champion of whatever their creature-taming-based hierarchy is.

>>97182030
All random chance is based on drawing from a pre-shuffled deck of cards
Modifying or reading this deck is possible for certain magic users (Including enemies)
This deck contains "Calamities" and "Miracles", the equivalent of crits
The deck has a joker, and when it is drawn the deck re-shuffles

(What each card means is in a look up table, many are situational.)
(None of them are "Wacky" and none are instantly obvious such as "The sky turns red".)

My dyslexia made me read that as "Catamites".

God is dead and heaven is falling to disarray
There are many wars yet to be fought by his former followers
Some factions maintain that all is a test and the truth will someday be revealed

Angels themselves are meant to be one time use, to be made and discarded by god as they please. Each player (And each angel in general) has a single miracle that they are built to cast. They are usually pretty strong

Also there are cute agender cherubs

At some point are we going to stop rolling? take the better ideas and fill in the blanks?

Writing General: 'festive' edition

Welcome to /wg/, the thread for all /tg/ related writing. Whether you're plotting your campaign, trying to come up with a character backstory, or just trying to write some setting fluff, this is the place to post it. You don't even have a campaign, just an idea you want to develop? You're welcome here. While the rest of /tg/ is arguing over monstergirl mating and which way rivers are supposed to flow, we're here to help you turn your thoughts into an actual finished product.

As the successor to the Storythreads, we're also open to /tg/ related fanfiction (D&D, Warhammer, Battletech, whatever). In fact, if you've written any vaguely /tg/-related short stories, you can try them out here. We also have flash-fiction challenges from time to time.

There's a discord for writers here
https://discord.gg/6AwKHGF

The previous thread can still be found in the archive here
>>96644454

And finally an archive of /tg/ fiction can be found here:

▶What is Kingdom Death?
Kingdom Death is a tabletop miniature brand stared by Adam Poots and operated by himself and his Team that later spun off into a miniature based bored game funded by two very successful Kickstarter campaigns.

▶What is Kingdom Death: Monster?
Monster is a Nightmare Horror cooperative boss battler/miniature hobby game for 1-4 players about hope in a strange world of bizarre monstrosities and perpetually darkness. Players take on the role of survivors that band together to form a settlement, fighting monsters, crafting weapons and gear, and developing their civilization to ensure survival from generation to generation.

Prologue Narration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNLc8dHv0Ac

The Game is broken up into 3 phases:
1. During your Hunt Phase your band of survivors traverse the world of KD in pursuit of their quarry.
2. After successfully tracking your quarry you will begin the Showdown Phase, where you must fell these horrific creatures in order to acquire precious resources.
3. After the battle, your survivors wander home with loot in hand to begin the Settlement Phase. Arm yourself by developing new weapons and bizarre structures to prepare for next year's hunt.

>Cyberpunk 2020 vs. Cyberpunk RED?
Cyberpunk 2020 is the second edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that focuses on simulation gameplay and has a black trenchcoat aesthetic.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the Cyberpunk TTRPG that is set after Cyberpunk 2020 following the Fourth Corporate War, focuses on more balanced gameplay and is more streamlined but has less content.

You can discuss Shadowrun here too because I also feel bad for those guys.

You should check out the 4th Corporate War books from 2020 in >>97200207. Obviously the corps aren't allowed to go that all-out anymore but it could inspire you.

My favorite cyberpunk ™ corporate job is employee extraction (very rarely the target actually does want to work for you!). It can get extra dicey if you're forced to extract the target's family from the company dorms or you can challenge your players morals when they find out the target is actually fine starting fresh and abandoning his family, probably to the streets.

You can also go nuts with the corp's defenses. The 4CW had stuff like concealed turrets that would pop out of the walls to defend against AV's flying around.

What corporation does your crew want to run for? Or which corporation looks like the most fun for you?

Okay think about it like this. Charismatic Impact is one really expensive skill that's limited in application and unless you get it to a high level grants middling benefits. It's a similar problem to the Lawman and Backup.

They had a dedicated story to show an orc chud mocking Alesha for being a FAGGOT and then being saved by xer and repenting for being an INCEL CHUD, but then years later the head writer said there is no such thing as homophobia in the multiverse so the canonicity is in debate.

>Now you still have to pick up a card
The game has gotten to the point where everything is so fucking bloated, you just don't bother picking up cards anymore.
Your opponent is playing solitaire. Randomly on one of their turns, they will declare they have won the game, and you won't know why so you ask and they go "Yeah my uhhhh dude is a 30/30 with flying now and uhhh duhhh I bounced all your stuff and also drew 20 cards and uhhh..." so you just shrug and accept it.

I ain't reading that fucking shit. It's tiresome enough tor read all the fucking novel-length textboxes in MY OWN deck.

The general production time for fakes is about ~1 month after a set's official release. This is a guideline and not a rule; sometimes the first things showcased get produced in advance, such as Bitterbloom Bearer or retro Snapcaster. If there is a specific card you're concerned about post it and I'll tell you what I know.

They don't print hosers because its effects are either great against or terrible depending on the deck they face never in between.

>The Ornamented Dead are undead dryads born of evergreens felled and decorated for holiday celebration. Once peaceful winter spirits, they are reawakened by false light and ritual ornamentation.

>These creatures may be rendered prone only by the singing of a flawless holiday carol, performed in perfect pitch and rhythm. If the song is executed without error, the creature grows still, its movements slowing until it collapses into a dormant state. In this moment, its crown (a powerful magical artifact in its own right) may be safely removed, leaving the creature permanently inert.
>Beware: even the slightest flaw in pitch, tempo, or verse has dire consequences. A missed note or wavering harmony will instead drive the creature into a violent rage, amplifying its strength and ferocity as it lashes out at all nearby.

This is why I'm a big Pure Faith enjoyer. It making your pc immune to corruption gained by daemonic presence is huge and Holy Radiance carried a few encounters early on for the crackolytes, including allowing Galen to burn a fate point to ignore a possession attempt. which resulted in Callidia being posessed instead, ironically, for character development
But not everyone can be that faithul so I understand >>97224016 , even our psyker was only gaining 1 CP and one IP each time he tried divinations and saw the Tyrant Star again, and that's the Tyrant Star, not just some chaos dreadnought

When I ran Deathwatch, the Republican Commandos fought enemies whose main gimmick was insanity - seeing them caused insanity, getting hit caused insanity, damage was resisted with insanity, having more insanity increased your damage against them, etc. It was a ton of insanity spam. Even then, when they got the From Beyond trait after a real-life year of the game, their insanity was only in the 60's.

Even a shitty joke-tier Kabal is reasonably some kind of minor power within the Dark City if they're capable of launching realspace raids. Still, they Crimson Woe are described as working as raiders for hire, suggesting they really are close to the bottom of the Kabal totem pole.
Don't know if you even need to do anything with them since the Crimson Woe Raider statline is so laughable compared to the basic Kabalites in Only War that they're already a joke. Plus, Shades of Twilight calls out the Crimson Woe Raiders as cowardly. Not only are their splinter weapons worse than usual and lacking toxic, Akirvas is carrying a regular no bells and whistles mono-sword.
If you're really intent on kicking them even further, don't give them any of the usual vehicles (If you give them any at all). Give them regular wheeled motorcycles at best to show how much poorer they are than other kabals.

I think from a balancing perspective, it's better for fantasy game variety to have wizards lean slightly overpowered for their points value rather than the converse, and have other limitations on taking them.

I'm building an Elf army for oathmark, so I know the feeling.
Mind you, nature of that game being what it is, I have the option to cheap out and take a Goblin wizard.

It’s fine to go historical if your opponent brings wacky shit. Regular men with halberds or greatswords lining up to face Orcs riding pigs or mummies commanding skeleton hordes gets the otherworldly fantasy vibes going more than if everything was crazy and over the top all the time.

>>97233986
True, I forgot that in my interpretation, but the rest of it would be true. They would be seeing things for the first time constantly, would have improper or non existant instincts for above ground situations, and likely either a sense of wonder or dread/disgust for everything they come across. Think of an old tiny hamlet medieval Catholic lady obsessively crossing herself every five minutes because she’s walking downtown Las Vegas. A dwarf would be doing similar things for their first time above ground, gawping at the sky or a lake or birds, signing the cross equivalent everytime they see a wooden building or stone structure that was made of brick instead of carved of fully native stone. Would they even understand the concept of windows or think they’re senseless unnatural openings? All kinds of things would be new and uncanny and scary or awe inspiring to them. Might even cause them to become completely neurotic.
