Zerg or Tyranids, who's cooler?
Xenomorph.
>>97833075This is the correct answer.
>>97833075Peak Lifeform.
Zerg, because Kerrigan is hot.
>>97833075Agreed, but beak groin is a strong contender for second place.

>>97832985>>97832900thanks for pointing out where the rules are.>>97832710>Don't forget the horse gets to make an attack as well.he is using the Ride-By attack feat to strike in middle of his movement and ride on past the target. The horse is a standard skeleton heavy warhorse and doesn't have any feats that would allow it to attack in middle of a move action, so I assume with this combo it doesn't get to make any attacks.
>>97832985>ou count as every square the mount occupies (and most mounts for Medium characters are Large), but threaten from its range and get a +1 bonus from the high ground.That's pretty cool.
>>97833011Ah, right. I think I was getting it mixed up with the rules where you used to be able to Overrun as part of a Charge as well. No attacks for the horse then, unless you manage to line up a shot where he does a ride-by on one player then ends up next to another one for the horse to attack/Bull Rush.
>>97829802>>97829802Those are a bit weak on the scale of Nymph's kiss or even the niche power of Lichloved.>what's the fey banger feat called?Nymph's Kiss it's unfortunately Exalted ad needs you to keep the relationship going (And Fey tend to be fickle with even the good ones pulling you into the occasional mean prank that might cost you your Exalted status)These are usually very powerful feats, Lichloved is fairly niche but strong in that niche, while Nymph's kiss is just mondo strong.Fey creatures regard you as though you were fey. You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on all Charisma-related checks, and a +1 bonus on all saving throws against spells and spell-like abilities. Starting with the level when you take this feat, you gain 1 extra skill point per level.Nice as a starter.I like the idea of a "Gotta fuck em all' playthough where there's a separate track without nonsex prereqs (And players possibly start with one or two) just to get crazy.
>>97833501>Those are a bit weakI was intentionally picking weak ones that a DM might be convinced to throw your way as a free feat for role playing in a standard game.If you want to have a 'Gotta fuck em all' game centered around the theme I would suggest that you don't pigeon hole every creature with an exact line of feats but come up with a generic system.I have one like that from a lewd themed game I planned out but never got to run.The gist was, some goddess blessed PCs as her champions and granted them an ability to copy aspects of the girls they slept with. For every creature of a given species one sleeps with, gets a cumulative +1% chance to copy one of their feats / abilities / skills at random. Once copied from a given species, can't copy anything more from them, have to look for others.The cost of this was that a PC who accepted being a champion of that goddess, couldn't get anything except class abilities by any other means, took massive penalties against any kind of seduction/mind control and monster girls could drain his magic abilities through sex. That last one was to intentionally sabotage spell caster classes, since in this game, martials couldn't make any proper builds.

What would you guys say is the most important skillset for "smart" characters in TTRPGs?>ability to make/build shit>perceptiveness>knowledge
>>97830485>The player not being a retard.This is why you should just stick to braindead Fightermen, OP.
>>97830906Yeah, came here to say this. Smart people can only be roleplayed by Smart people.
>>97830485A smart player
>>97830485The ability to make use of what they know. That's why Doom and Tony are better than Reed, he invents technology to could change the world and leaves it in a closet. He invented a fucking belt that makes someone the near equal to the Flash, and did nothing with it. Tony might not be as smart, but at least he actually uses his brain to do things besides indulge his hobbies.
>>97833077Yeah each of these has a downsideYou can be mega perceptive but glueless about how to apply your observationsYou can know everything but be helpless to change anythingYou can make anything but you're too autistic to see a project through to its full potential

>>97834711Wait what's this about Meerlinda in the V5 Sabbat, I hadn't heard that one yetAlso the book implies Etrius let the SI destroy the prime chantry so he could flee in a human body while everyone thinks he's dead. "Most humane of the Council of Seven"
>>97834987>"Most humane of the Council of Seven"Admittedly that's really not saying much.

Which WOD character could rival Eobard Thawne in pettiness?
Gearhead thread but for /tg/Part of why I like to play ttrpg's is the analog aspect. I prefer to keep all digital things out of the experience. No laptops, ipads, phones at the table. Well, an exception can be made for googling something quick, but other than that, keep that shit in your pocket.I like to do my gm prep, world building, drawing maps, in notebooks. npc and character sheets etc.on paper.I really like MUJI stationery. Their notebooks are really nice, and their pens and pencils are amazing.I recently found some hex paper notebooks on amazon. That was really nice to use to draw some hex maps.Do you have any neat stationery or other analog "gear" that you really like? Could you share some of your cool items or showcase your note taking system or maps or whatever?
>>97835016It's really just about making it fun for yourself than anything else. Personally, my favorite pencils are pic-related. They're very pretty and mad of incense cedar.
>>97834954These "Statty's noteboards" are pretty handy for traveling GM's. It has 1 inch hexes/squares on the other side which is great for gaming. Can be wiped and the thing fits in a pocket folded.But in home games I love the Chessex Megamat. It is huge, and lays flat easily. The surface is pleasant to the touch. It is basically as big as my whole table, but it is fine, the character sheets and all the tools can just lay on top of it. Wet erase is also kind of better than dry erase in some ways.
>>97835036>better than dry erase in some ways.Like not getting all over my hands as I touch the table, ways. I agree.
>>97809050Go here. jetpens.comAll the paper and pens and pencils. Refill inks and stationary designed to last. Worthwhile if you don't have a Michael's hobby store (much cheaper high quality notebooks compared to everywhere else) or a Walker's Office supply (bulk discounts).
>>97835064Or penboutique if you wanna get all fancy. Jetpens has more of the funky jajpanese stuff, but penboutique has more of the high-end stuff.

>>97834738>Does anyone know any house rules which maintain that low level feel of needing to improvise, rather than relying on your class features? Obviously, you can just restrict players to like level one or two, but then there’s very little progression.Idk maybe make enemies vastly stronger, like +5 to AC and saves always, 2-5 x HP, 2 x damage, but have improvised solutions be vastly more effective too, for example toppling a large statue on a troll straight up automatically kills it, a charging beast has 0 chance of avoiding a pit trap and if it's deep enough it's stuck there with no chance of escape, direct ballista hits instakill huge and smaller targets etc. Ideally you should just look for a different system instead.
>>97834738If you and your party like playing at low levels, you could always attack the problem by just keeping them from leveling up as ofte. Cut the exp to 1/4 of what's listed, or if you run milestone leveling make the milestone harder to reach.
I've got a hankering to play a shaman-like character in 5.5e. More or less I'd draw upon nature spirits to do magic for me. It sounds like I'd be rolling a Warlock, but would I be better off dipping into Druid, taking the Guide background, or working with my DM to homebrew something, whether it be an entire class or subclass of Warlock?
What are some item ideas or mechanic changes or anything to give players something to do while unconscious but stable?>magic sword that fights after death>playing pets or summons>choice to keep rolling d20s to get 1 hp on 20 but risk haunt to start making death saves if 1>becoming stable just heals to 1 hp
>>97834991There is the Vestige Warlock from Unearthed Arcana, which does explicitly summon a spirit. It also gets access to a Cleric domain as extra spells, and while it does just list the 2024 domains, it wouldn't be a huge stretch to use the Nature or Tempest spell list from 2014.The damage types are a little off, being Fire, Necrotic, and Radiant. But you could likely swap that to Fire, Poison, and Thunder and end up with a similar overall effectiveness. And likewise the final feature is to upcast a Summon spell, but again swapping it for Summon Beast/Elemental also would probably be fine. Add on the Guide background for a bit more Druid magic and take Pact of the Chain so you can have another 'nature spirit' of some variety and it's shaping up pretty well with minimal tweaks.
Hello elegan/tg/gentlemen,Bit of an odd question, but, I am travelling from USA to Europe and I will visit over there a friend of mine who is into /tg/ stuff and lives over there now. We have a rule of not bringing gifts to eachother, but nonetheless I wanted to bring something, maybe not in excess of 10$. What could I bring him? Preferably something that he cannot get in Europe or is more expensive there. Any ideas?Thanks in advanceTL;DR cheap stuff /tg/ related which is more expensive or had to get in Europe than the USApic unrelated
You're an American. Bring him a gun
Anything that is popular enough is also available in Europe. Assuming you have enough prep time, look around /awg/ for the manufacturers list. There are some indie mini makers that don’t sell across the pond (or the shipping costs are insane). For example, I found this old school manufacturer that I had shipped to my ex-gf uncle’s and I picked it up when we visited last summer.
>>97833049Pro Acryl paints maybe? Those are made in USA if I recall correctly.But then again they're liquid so maybe they'll get stopped during your molestation by the TSA at the airport. A good reaper miniature you think he will like possibly?I'm not sure beyond that.
>>97833049>We have a rule of not bringing gifts to eachother, >but nonetheless I wanted to bring somethingDon't. Really. You're just going to make it weird.
>>97833049>What could I bring him?Wishes of health, good luck and happiness, you rule-breaking faggot.

I am playing old CoC starting with 2E, I play solitaire TTRPGs because everyone is a fucking retard who wants social lube and "good" times doing things for laughs rather than trying to roleplay or seriously do anything.I finished the Haunted House with relative ease, my characters didn't figure out the sunlight, but we dealt with everything without death or going insane. Which makes sense as its the tutorial.However, the 2nd scenario is very confusing. How is anyone supposed to "win" in this scenario? There is no clear way to stop the ritual. The rules are clusterfuck of a mess, which is fine as long as there is a way to win. Combat is a no go because of the Mi-Go's super high armor. The only thing I can think of is that you are supposed to run away to tell the authorities and fuck outta there and say "it's someone else's problem" which actually will result in the certain doom of the town at the hand of Ithaqua because they are doing the ritual every night with a 28% chance of success to cause a massive blizzard and snow to kill all the town, then set up a mining camp there. My characters thought that the hillbilly was key to stopping the ritual and killed him in combat, but afterwards died to all the Mi-Go's hunting them down, carrying them into the atmosphere and all meeting their death through lung explosion.Is this common in CoC? Is this how most of the scenarios and stories are?
>>97834275My main question here is how did anyone manage to beat this scenario successfully.
How does horror work in a TTRPG?
Ran The Necropolis out of Gateways of Terror for my group last night. Two players were going to miss our Horror on the Orient Express session, so I did it instead. Had a 75% casualty rate, but the last character made it out. I had to beef up the monster, however, as our Solider player nearly killed it in the first round of combat with an impale on their gun (they did 14 damage out of 17 health). I made it so their gun did half damage instead, though they still ended up bringing it down to 2 HP before they got killed. Rather disappointingly, none of them even attempted to sneak past the monster and get into the room it emerged from, so they never found its heart. Instead, it died due to the tomb caving in after the exit was dynamited by the last surviving PC. We had a good time, but it’s definitely a con scenario, and a much more combat-focused one at that. I feel like of the three scenarios in the book, it’s the one least suited to people who have never played an investigative horror game before. The lethality might put them off it if they’re not used to that kind of thing.

>>97828814>>97829683>>97829052Nice. Remind me of those surprise hot illustrations that you would find in tabletop RPG magazines>>97829460>>97829646I get it that it can seem like the slop machines are taking over, but they can only do derivative, repetitive stuff with small variations and only after a lot of trial and error. An actual person will always do it better, but it will take a while to get there, and the long road of learning can be disheartening, but it is also fun and fulfilling. You can also combine your skills with the slop. It produces the best results.
Hey /tg/ I have a problem. One of my players is a genuine incel. He's 27 and I'm pretty sure he's never had sex. He definitely hasn't gotten laid in a while. He's not really ugly just kinda weird and awkward. I feel bad for him. But he is taking his extreme thirst out in the game. >every time his character, a human eldritch knight, comes back from our adventures he always tries to play up the angle of "we saved the town, where are the girls to suck my dick as thanks?">he constantly talks about how his character is 6 foot 2 (he's 5 foot 8 irl)>he talks out of his ass a lot about medieval times and says that peasant girls were way healthier than modern women.>says how farmers would be begging to marry their lithe 17 year old daughters to him>he talks about medieval demographics and criticizes the DMa works building (which is actually kinda shit to be fair) >you can just tell how excited he is talking about how there should be a dozen villages between these two cities on the map, like he is stopping just short of talking about how many nubile virgin farm girls are there for his fighter to fuckWe tried talking to him about it but he twisted it around to make the rest of us sound like we were fucking gay or something. Also his character is too important to the story to kick him, and running him as an NPC would suck the fun out of it since there's be a lot of the DM just roleplaying with himself while the rest of us watch. So....any advice? Its not worth ruining the game over by kicking him, and nothing is so blatant to be a clear social violation, but the dude is just oozing incel energy and I feel like I should subtly suggest to the DM something that will set his head on straight, and possibly help cure his mindset. Any ideas?
>>97834928This. Positive change starts with you, and this guy clearly hasn't developed his sexual and social skills in a normal healthy way, the only course of action is to lay him down by the fire, caress his manly body, make him moan and perspire. When you make him your wife this will solve the incel problem, and you can solve other table problems by talking about it as a couple.
>>97834944> When you make him your wifeProbably the other way around since OP sounds like a bitch.
>>97834948Incels definitionally don't make the first move. You go to war with the army you have.
Have the party wizard force-fem him.
>>97835024Not a bad idea.

Supposedly, the way to make a "great" D&D character is to deliberately give them a dumped ability score at 6, then constantly attempt tasks using that score, leaning into the failure to highlight the character's flaws.This video and the "le ebin flubbed secret checks" video seem tailor-made to appeal to the crowd who loves to watch other people play D&D and fumble.
