>>97232693Well, he IS in Hell... or HIFL.
>>97235675It could be the case, but I think that establishing that "no, actually, this is not like that" isn't unreasonable for him to do. We'll have to see how he acts in the coming pages.

>>97229250What exactly is Nale expecting to get out of this? Why the fuck would you blow the best tactical advantage you could EVER have (enemy not knowing you're coming) to try and team up with a team that he's stabbed both in the back and in the face?
>>97237435Because The Order isn't an enemy unless Nale makes them an enemy. His goal doesn't involve The Order. 1316 goes over the general change in his mindset. Nale's goal is to break the last gate. The Order is the group that's going to be within spitting distance of it, and working with them openly is the best cover possible. Fighting them just wastes time and resources, and hiding from them would likely fail. Nale also has no intel on the gate's location beyond it being somewhere in the wall of doors. The Order is his best shot at information. On top of that, unlike with Xykon there's no impetus for The Order to specifically protect the gate from Nale, so even if he has to retreat they're not going to act any differently.

I refuse to believe Halo Flashpoint is even a 10th as successful as Mantic claims. In terms of online, easy to find metrics it has:3100 people as part of its sub(P)reddit.2100 or so people as part of Facebook Groups.No one discussing it on Twitter gets many likes/comments/retweets.No one big or well known talks about/plays it on Youtube.Yet it's one of the fastest growing and more popular tabletop games to come out recently?I don't buy it.I don't hate the system, but I am baffled by Mantic's ability to get away with lying about how successful this game is.
Mantic's just lying to try and make itself seem popular and noteworthy. They've done it before, it don't mean nothing.

Many of them work for us or were supported by us whether they realize it or not, for the more sins they commit in this life, the more energy they produce in the afterlife. >Other individuals are relatively pure, but removing them will allow us to spread wickedness even further throughout next year and produce an even bigger harvest for next year’s Krampusmas.>And plenty of others will be more or less randomly slain by the Drukhari, though there are few among the Imperials on this planet who are not drenched in the common sins of avarice, lust, wrath, or indolence>One of my aides arrives and tells me the Felinid Commissar is here to see me >The one who “can’t figure out” the paperwork to order pants for her regiment after almost every female member of her regiment ditched their pants about a year ago >Ah, I guess she found out about the murder of a few of her women >Ironically those weren’t even deaths that I arranged, but I suppose it should be expected that once someone starts ordering secret murders, a few of ones subordinates start taking some initiatives of their own >Two gift wrapped dildo swords appear in my office, courtesy of the Slaaneshmas Fairy>I hide them under my desk so I don’t have to explain them to the Felinid Commissar when she arrives, but I may get a chance to use them later
>>97237442>The Felinid Commissar is already on the hit list for excessive lust, and conversely because she is one of the least lustful members of her regiment and her removal opens the way for the regiment’s junior commissar to take her role, and dear Junior Commissar Tammy already works for our nominal allies the Schlick. With Tammy in charge of discipline, at least half of the felinids will fall to Slaanesh by next Candlemas, up from about 10% who have already secretly fallen >There is nothing really stopping me from killing Kate at any time, but I kind of want her death to fall within the six hour time period for symbolic reasons >I guess I will just have to stall her with conversation for eight minutes, actually seven minutes now, my mind was wandering for a while there >I wonder what fate will befall her in the Halls of Eternal Punishment?>There is lots of different punishments for lust since it is the most common sin. She strikes me as the voyeur sort though, given her inability to acquire pants >In the Halls, voyeurs usually have their naughty bits lashed to shreds, and then locked in small cages in front of screens showing the most sexual of images. Eyes stitched open, and metal bands hold their skulls in place so they can’t look away. Touching themselves causes extreme pain, and yet, most can’t go more than a few minutes without trying, given the nature of the images shown.>I grin wickedly just thinking about it>Good thing Kriegers never take their masks off, since I will have a hard time keeping a straight face over the next...six minutes now >Kate walks in just then >I smile again behind my mask >Six is my lucky number, this keeps getting better and better

What are some things that retired adventurers in double-digit levels could get up to in a city?I have an idea for a faction for the next chapter of my campaign being built around five such figures who hold different forms of formal or informal power in the same city, and are still on friendly terms with each other. Each of the five has a successful business operation or other field of influence which may or may not be related to their class abilities, and they can call upon each other for assistance if they run into problems of any kind.
Most adventurers either die on the job or become vagabonds once they cannot do the job anymore.
>>97237394Most. I want these five to feel like the competent exception, good enough to retire comfortably while still being "in the game" to the point where they get most of the reward with little of the risk.

>>97237293Thats AOS so I didnt consider it at all.

Which one do you recruit and why?
>>97227948Only if your Pope is the head of a small group or if it's pretty high level stuff. It would be kino recruiting a Pope for a dire situation mid adventure and then he retires to journey with you.
>>97227812I realize it does come off kind of stream of conscious. To summarize here, in recruiting a church member you intend on being a Cleric, the only real choice is a priest. If you're aiming for someone of a higher rank, it should either be under a dire situation or like an end of campaign recruitment.On the other hand, the friar classes should be for church members that are not using traditional holy magic, so like a church assassin in a particularly edgy church or a church-aligned fighter or monk.

I would like to talk about the Chronicles of Darkness game line Deviant: The Renegades, or more specifically, one major upcoming supplement. Deviant was released in late 2021, and has had three additional sourcebooks since then. A new supplement, Black Vans, has been in playtesting for a while, and is currently being previewed.I am not being paid or sponsored to promote this book in any way. I am just very fascinated by it, and indeed, I already ran a mini-campaign using the playtest material.Deviant is, by default, a game about playing angsty, scarred superheroes who either fight world-manipulating conspiracies or work for them. Black Vans is a toolkit full of variant rules, quick NPC creation, variant character types, and variant genres. These variants range from the minor to the dramatic, completely overhauling what were once non-negotiable, foundational themes and mechanics. Maybe your character is not angsty or scarred at all, perhaps they are a """""regular human""""" like John Wick or Batman, or the campaign might have nothing to do with world-manipulating conspiracies.These variant genres include cyberpunk, high fantasy, post-apocalypse, space opera, and superhero emergence.This is a beefy supplement. For example, one chapter alone dedicates 38,000+ words to playing other monsters of the Chronicles of Darkness: Beasts, changelings, demons, Sin-Eaters, hunters (entirely separate from the variant rules for """natural""" superpowers), mages, mummies, Prometheans, vampires, and werewolves. No additional supplements beyond Deviant are necessary; the rules are self-contained, allowing the group to play a monster mash of an urban fantasy setting without needing a daunting 7+ books. And yes, they are supposed to be balanced against one another, so a vampire in the same group as a full-fledged mage is probably some older Kindred.(Continued.)
>>97221120How big are conspiracies?
>>97231406God Machine doesn't even matter outside of Demon.>>97235130They range from "A small network of labs funded by a small, but wealthy dark money group" to "World-wide with assets in every government in the world" to "Older than humanity and encompassing the entire galaxy."
>>97235231Sounds dumb. This isn't DND.
>>97235283If you pick the biggest conspiracy possible, all the characters are horrible, fucked-up Evangelion monsters constantly on the verge of collapsing into piles of radioactive gore and melting the entire planet into nanomachines and are only held together by love and hatred. It's Devilman, not D&D. The game doesn't actually want you to go bigger than SHOCKER.
>>97235301The game does, actually, want you to play at Standing/Threat Level 7 to 10 at some point, at least in theory. That is why the core rulebook has two Standing 7 conspiracies, Onachus and the Vigilance Society, and has rules for Standing 8 through 10.The upcoming Deep Dive supplement is supposed to detail ten conspiracies from Standing 1 to 2, ten from Standing 3 to 5, ten from Standing 6 to 8, and another ten from Standing 9 to 10. Many of them have already been previewed, mostly in full. Have a look at the blurbs for the Old Boys Club, the Stargazers, and the Symposium here, for example: >>97217974Black Vans specifically offers the possibility of starting at a Threat Level higher than 6. As far as Scar management goes, you can either:• Just deal with it.• Do the cheesy thing of picking the least inconvenient Scars.• Use one of the Black Vans alternate supernatural types, who do not have to deal with Scars.• Use one of the Black Vans variants that tremendously reduces Scars. The high fantasy and superhero emergence genres both greatly dial down Scars, for example, and there are suggestions for mixing and matching genres with bits and pieces.
