can it depict this?

"The yaggolized elder brain is a huge, fibrous mass of cretinous brain tissue. It has a circular mouth with no jaws or teeth, two muscled arms, similar to those of a brain golem, with large fists and peculiar membranous skin. It has two huge eyes, covered with thick skin. It can now move on the ground with hundreds of semi-hard insect-looking legs for traction. By using its arms it can also swim.

Their skin is chameleonlike, shifting in color and pattern to match the background. The possible color changes range from brilliant rich green to a scarlet orange, encompassing various shades of browns, greens, and yellows. They possess three fingers on each hand, weirdly jointed so that any one can oppose the other two. Its skin is thicker, its brain structure is gains muscular functionality and the creature is mobile.

Elder brains sense the world via sight, touch and taste only. Once in combat, an elder brain attacks with its brain-tissue formed fists, delivering powerful blows."

Somewhat intentional but more serious - our storyteller and a few of the members like the gremlin cat but obviously she doesn't work for exalted but the seed idea of short catgirls that can multiply catastrophically if the wrong thing happens (say, summoning Arkuya and repeatedly denying her her whimsy) is still there.

More or less the idea though is that Adorjan's fetich is the calm at the eye of the storm, then Arkuya as her defining second circle represents the whins she's suppressing to be that calm.

As a result Arkuya is Adorjan's wanderlust and curiosity stripped down to a fine edge, hence the cat theming. She's a master of many martial arts, and indulges many passions.

Also she's my characters martial arts Sifu.

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

Anti-Heroes, but more of the "I did bad in the past; I can't undo what I did, but I'm going to do what I can to make the world a better place from now on" type than the "Ends justify the means for the greater good" type.

I feel like most players default to anti-heroes.

I mean, everyone likes Wolverine more than Cyclops and Han Solo more than Luke Skywalker.

TTRPGs are a social game first and foremost. That means there's unspoken rules that vary from group-to-group, but a common one is "acceptable breaks from sensibility" in the name of game experience or table cohesion. It's the kind of thing that keeps the bitter rivalry between the Elf and the Dwarf largely to amusing banter and not outright PvP. It's an innate instinct: nobody likes to spoil the atmosphere, because that's a large part of the appeal of a good game (alongside the freedom).

That being said, there are also times when the group's course of action is patently retarded and you can't meaningfully push back on it without feeling like you'd cause a big fight over nothing (and then feel obligated to keep comrades away from the consequences), or something a character cannot abide has to be "sanded over" somewhat, or you as the GM don't want to cultivate the feeling that you're antagonizing your players by hitting them over the head with "you murdered someone because it was convenient and didn't even take measures to cover your tracks" or whatever unhinged misadventure occurred because something about the player position of the table cause human beings to lose IQ.

Have you ever had that feeling? I think I see enough greentexts to think it's common.

Correct. Only some faggot who's 'plot!' is more important than accurately reacting to the party's actions would pull this shit.
NPC's plots should follow the "every one has a plan until they get punched in the face' mentality. They should have things they're gonna do, til the pcs hit them, then they have to adapt to that bases off what, if any information they have on them.
It should never be "A happens, B happens, then C happens, no matter what!" That's some tard tier rail roading shit that needs to be shot and thrown into a ditch.
>>
>>97228087
>That means there's unspoken rules that vary from group-to-group
This is the big problem. Make those spoken. Don't be weird or preachy about it but making what you, the gm who is running the game and actually in charge of the social event, clear on expectations in simple ways removes a lot of crossed wires about unspoken anything. Everyone assuming they're all on the same page is how miss communications happen, build and get fucked up.
Just say something like
>Part of the game is based on a party or group cohesion, so everyone should er on the side of being agreeable with each other's player characters. Some bickering is fun but we're not doing pvp
or
>we can do randomly murdering and burning villages if you guys really want but an evil campaign isn't what I want to do for very long
and let them get it out of their system before moving onto something else.
Just talk to each other, be a bit flexible but also know and maintain the social side in clear and concise ways. This may at some point mean you have a player who doesn't fit. That's okay. Not everyone has to get along forever about everything. If they clearly want divergent enough things its totally normal and fair to tell them its not working out and they need to find a different group.
