File: Grimgar the Prowling Fury.png (1.38 MB, 1287x1370)

Hi, I'm going to be playing my first game of D&D, and a friend told me I could get some art for my character here. So I hope I'm doing this right.

My character is a Half-Orc rogue called Grimgar the Prowling Fury.

His mother was an Orc shamaness, and his father was a human slave. He has his father's lean build but his mother's green-tinged skin and raw strength. His tribe shunned him as "diluted blood," too human to be a true warrior, but his mother still tried to train him in the shamanic arts of beast-speaking and herbal poisons. But Grimgar's true affinity lay in the shadows—stalking prey like a ghost, striking from ambush with crude bone knives.

Not going to get into too much more about his backstory here, just that there was a coup by a rival Warchief, Grimgar's mother was killed, and Grimgar was blamed. Killing his pursuers, he was now branded a kin-slayer, but he seeks the skills necessary to get revenge for the murder of his mother.

Description: He is lean and green-skinned, with slight tusks (they may get longer as he ages, but they are underdeveloped compared to other full-blooded orcs his same age).
We wears mostly leather hides and furs, as well as handmade jewelry made up of trophies from his kills. As well as a crafted feline mask that covers his upper face, made by his mother to help him appear more intimidating and hide much of his human features.

Heh, yeah, that is kinda hot. It's part of the unsolved issues that my friend running the game wanted everyone to have. He wanted everyone to have at least two unsolved issues with their character's backstory to resolve potentially in the game. Mine are getting revenge on the rival Warchief, as well as finding out what happened to my father, as he escaped from the camp before the coup.

Idk depending on the army you play having dice that roll the 3/4 side consistently over the 2/5 side would be really good. I think I have a couple bricks of 2/5 weighted Chessex dice that I use for Orks that make me pull off statistically improbable amounts of 5+ shots and invulns/fnps. And at the numbers I roll them it'd only take me a month or so to get 1000 rolls.

Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to TSR-era D&D, derived systems, and compatible content.

Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons as played in the game's first decade — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching meta-plots and a greater emphasis on player agency.

If you are new to the OSR, welcome! Ask us whatever you're curious about: we'll be happy to help you get started.

Honestly I'm tired of muh eldritch cults and the lovecraftian mythos in horror. No one is genuinely scared or creeped out by them. People may gloat about how much of an intellectual idea cosmic horror is; being overwhelmed by the vastness of the universe and feeling powerless, blah blah blah.

Satanic cabals, witch covens and pagan cults do give people the creeps. Voodoo dolls, human sacrifices, blood rituals, hidden groves with celtic ruins, secret societies, actual ghosts and demons instead of otherworldly beings who don't give a shit about mankind. Horns and blood scare people more than tentacles and ooze.

Bard's thing is one action, party wide, and can last the whole fight depending on build. It's a long way from spending 3 actions to give a situational +1 to one roll.
>>
>>96767969
fuck I cut off the part where I meant to say "... using something to reduce that by 1 isn't doing nothing, but it's still a bad a ability". No Cause For Alarm has to contest with the fact that shit like Champion's Aura of Courage exists and just kind of passively does the same shit in an AoE, to say nothing of dozens and dozens of infinitely better actions you could use (just enter a Marshal stance or some shit). I'm pretty much in agreement, but it's pretty important to clarify that Frightened is a broad debuff.

GURPS 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 (follow the URL to get to a folder with some files, read the files to get to the archive). 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.

There are servitors for absolutely any situation.
But I'm honestly not sure if maintaining a servitor for that purpose is actually cheaper than than a regular (and cheap) whore with Imperium's work ethic.
Like the guy say, they are a thing, but are usually mentioned in context of richfag entertainment.
If you're thinking any religious icons, than the first moderately pious guy will report you for heresy. I don't know for celebrities and secular leaders, but again, they live in an Imperium, so consider the planet culture, and legality of the place itself.
>>
>>96762446
I didn't comment because they all look meh. I don't particularly like "regular" long-rage laser battery, so I would make them take up as much power/space as sunsear broadside to represent the humongous power couplings to make laser blasts equivalent to Staravars.
And 13/8 for broadside batteries. Not everything is supposed to be efficient, see and this will discourage basically anyone from using them but stations.

I recommend using Lucius-pattern. Because the forge is known for producing titans, clunky, blocky designs and powerful lasguns in exchange for bulk. Suits having these batteries at least as far as Gothic War.
You can also try to compensate for the bulk somewhat, by adding +1-2 STR or Damage at close range compared to +1 for everyone else.

Missing the all-important Astartes karaoke bar.
>>
>>96765611
I had been heavily considering bulking them out to start with, yeah. Just didn't know how much was too much.
Excellent idea for the name, Lucius is in Segmentum Obscurus too so it makes sense.
I've been flopping between giving them +2/-2 damage for short and long range, +1/-1 instead, or not bothering with special rules. I can probably crib from Grav-Culverins actually, now that I think about it, but what would be a fair range for damage trade? Grav-Culverins are a 40% increase for -2 damage, or alternatively a 30% decrease for +2 damage. That comes out to about Range 8 in this case, so now the question is whether a Range 8 1d10+3 weapon capable of going to Range 12 1d10+1 is worth the price tag, or whatever damage values I eventually arrive at.
>>
>>96768268
Nah, that's no good if they can't even reach range 12, the whole point of such bulk is to enable delivery of standard damage that far.
I'd say simply add +2 damage at range 5 and +1 damage at range 8. That's as far as you go without stepping on anyone's toes. In BFG terms, short range begins at range 6, so it fits.
You can add standard Beam Dispersion if you really want to, but that's not necessary.
I think this way it's an ok heavy weapon.

Reminder though that Culverin +2 damage is range 10, not 5 as it only increases max range.
