>>97835687>so bereft of interesting characters Wrong, there are plenty of interesting charactersThe issue is that retards who hated the PT because they slept through the films all creamed when Maul appeared and thought he got wasted in TPM (he didn't, Maul is not a character like Vader, he doesn't deserve more than that). So since Lucas was desperate to clean his public image after the anti-Pt movement started shitting on him everywhere, he revived Maul and planned to put him everywhereThis coincided with Filoni essentially turning Maul into an OC of his (TCW Maul shares literally jack shit with TPM Maul or EU Maul. Different origin story, different personality, half-cyborg, owns a criminal empire, is related to the Mandalorians for some reason...) which is why he's everywhere even after Lucas left, he's on the same tier of characters Ahsoka and Sabine are in
Welcome to the Old School Renaissance General, the thread dedicated to first-decade, Gygaxian D&D, its faithful modern clones, and content created for use with them. Later editions (2e and newer) should be discussed elsewhere.Broadly, OSR games encourage a tonal and mechanical fidelity to Dungeons & Dragons played as intended by its creators from 1974 to 1983 — less emphasis on linear adventures and overarching metaplots 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.

I'll never understand why people thought it was unrealistic for Mai to be corrupted by the power of the Orichalchos and I chalk it down to the fanbase (gooners) grossly not understanding how much of an aggressively sub optimum duelist Mai actually is since if you look at her character objectively, Mai only wins duels against duelists worse then her (Rex). Also, Mai's personality is all over the place. I can even prove it. In Duelist Kingdom, Mai has zero optimism at Yugi's chances for beating Weevil until he outsmarts Weevil and Mai starts coping with this stating how it was "luck" so to prove her "theory" correct she demands an immediate duel with Joey that she loses which she also claims was caused by Luck. She then manipulates Rex later in the afternoon to duel Joey which Joey wins again according to her "thru luck" but then tries to act like she's part of the squad because she has access to food and water but still feels the need to belittle them. Even when Yugi won her starchips back she is still in the belief she's a better duelist then Yugi until Yugi brute forces thru her misplay and then surrenders near the end of the duel because she feels like she doesnt have the motivation to muscle thru whats left of the duel. Battle City happens and you can just tell she is only in this tournament as an excuse to show off "her growth" only to demonstrate what we've already known which is Mai is only good against duelists with zero actual plot importance. She enters one Shadow game and this shit literally makes her never wanna touch this game again. Like no one calls into question the emotional and psychological damage a shadow game does to a person and how Joey and Yugi are used to this but Mai feels angered she just "has to be" use to this when medically she was announced dead for most of the tournamentSo yes, I do believe a dumb bitch like Mai immediately jumped on Dartz dick and joined his crew because she's mad she wants to be a better duelist but cant.

>>97833006I saw this on /biz/
>>97833805Shut the fuck up, faggot. Mai is best girl and one of the better-written characters in the show. She represents what a true competitive duelist has to be to become great. She’s confident, never gives up, and helps her friends and rivals improve so she can improve as well. Nothing wrong in wanting to be better at what you love doing. Some of you fags in this hobby need that kind of character, especially considering how quickly you quit or give up on ygo the moment things become too complicated.Now, Konami seriously needs to announce better Harpie support now that Feather Storm has been banned. I unsleeved my max rarity Harpie deck last week and it felt bad. Full art Harpie support announcement would be amazing.>fanbase (gooners)Yes, she's the hottest too. Fix your ED, fag.

China Mieville is an author who designed stories with stat blocks in mind. I’ll post others and you can too.
The setting of Disco Elysium was originally a novel that was adapted to D&D by Kurvitz!
Patrick Rothfuss based his novels on his experiences playing D&D as a child.https://blog.patrickrothfuss.com/2008/03/end-of-era-2/
George RR Martin may have had his career as a writer bud before D&D came onto the scene, but he was an early gamer and even transitioned to GURPS for all his games with friends. https://youtu.be/DoIb62THIT0?si=EuB-CWwprb_mR-hi
Based on a home brewed d20 modern game of all things.

Would hunting outpace agriculture for the source of calory intake if large prey like the American bison were more endemic, and most of the continent not easily colonized by human settlers?I'm working on making a setting where the reason everyone, even women, knows how to use weapons in combat is because their land is geographically just supernaturally* good for grazing, which led to ginormous animals proliferating there.
>>97815762Nice summary, thanks.>>97786637Dunno if it counts as "lesser known" if only because I'm working with it and am generally a basic bitch. Also the fact that it's basically most of the best-known pantheons (Groman, Norse, Hindu) reduced to primordial soup.This guy's PIE-coded "Concavia" stuff is pretty neat btw. I particularly like how dark spirits are modelled after funky-headed cave paintings.https://kemono.cr/patreon/user/63597877>>97790637Thanks for the West and Dumezil recommendations though desu I've been playing so fast and loose that bringing things back in line with authentic myth might dampen some of the magic at this point.
>>97835117For instance I accidentally stumbled into the Striker and Many-Headed Serpent's rivalry with some of the usual roles reversed: A key aspect of the world is that it's a tautological time loop. One of the titans-aspirant will eventually consume their peers and then the whole world retroactively becoming the Ymir / Pangu primordial being who dies and decomposes into creation (which just so happens to contain the hungry hungry humans who will / already have eaten their way to retroactive godhood).The Serpent is less a manifestation of Chaos than alternate Order based on such alien principles as to be incomprehensible to us. What if something other than humanity dominates all and so cemented itself as the foundation of all? The Serpent is both "scaly-nasty-water-thing" of visceral revulsion and the interlinking chains of impartial cause and effect which drag our worldview away from naïve anthropocentrism and into a nihilistic wasteland where people are nothing special (or worse yet throughput for whatever else IS).The Striker on the other hand is "fertile" disorder. Their tool-weapon is both the Ur-flint, an aching wisdom tooth knocked loose by stone (as well as that percussive surgical instrument) and an idea itself extracted from the skull in pursuit of peace and quiet. Peals of thunder are as much swearing at having dropped something on his foot as vast oaks or fearsome foes falling before his wrath. Most of the "firsts" he's responsible for are accidents refined by others but the very fact he has no clue what he's up to is what makes him a wellspring of creation and especially anathema to those creations which limit alternative creativity.
>>97784855Anyone focus on glass as an important industry in their setting?Pretty sure for a lot of the west and Italy and Venice in particular, Glassmaking was an important and highly exported product. Often being highly covetted in places like China in a way that Fine china ceramics were coveted in Europe.I always thought that it might be interesting to make a european inspired place the "foreign and exotic location where you get luxery goods" If you are in a non european inspired place like if it is more Arabian, Southeast Asian, or Japanese. Think I got the idea in part when I was playing Scarlet Heros which has some more southeast asian derived settings.If you want to go for something more magical maybe stained glass windows and fine crystal wineglasses that vibrate and hum with magic but will shatter if the magic is not kept in check could be a cool idea. Or maybe you are a glass blower that literally blows in the breath of life to animate glass objects. Glass has a lot of interesting potentials.
>>97835314>always thought that it might be interesting to make a european inspired place the "foreign and exotic location where you get luxery goods" If you are in a non european inspired place like if it is more Arabian, Southeast Asian, or Japanese. Think I got the idea in part when I was playing Scarlet Heros which has some more southeast asian derived settings.The issue I see with this is that the East having all these exotic goods wasn't just a coincidence, it's way more likely that tropical countries are going to have valuable goods than a northern temperate climate. For example if we assume that there's a one in a hundred chance any given plant will produce a useful spice/dye/medicine/whatever, you're way more likely to find it somewhere like Indonesia which has over 28K species of plants than Britain which has only around 1K (Indonesia being an archipelago also helps a lot here compared to somewhere like Africa since it creates more endemism). This is why all the fancy spices and dyes came from places like India, Indonesia, and China and not Europe. Also there's animal-based goods like silk, ivory, pearls, animal skins, etc to consider as well.Of course not all goods are as ecologically related, like minerals or some manufactured ones like glass that you mentioned, but it's still important to consider because unless you're setting your not-Europe in the jungle they'd probably still need to have a trading relationship with some exotic tropical region to get certain goods.
