>>97827208https://2e.aonprd.com/HellknightOrders.aspx?ID=1It's a reprint, but also a buff.
>>97826796Since at least Occult Adventures in 1e, Paizo's been piecemealing the Warlock kit and ideas to various classes. Especially once D&D5e hit, they saw the frankly overloaded class, and just decided to not do it for 2e.>Witch takes the lore of the mysterious patron that gives free powers for nothing and cantrip buffs>Kineticist takes the one-action cantrip blasts and at-will powers>Psychic takes the limited spell slot design for focus on buffing cantrips>Magus takes Pact of the Blade/Hexblade shenanigans and very limited spell slots (Bounded Spellcasting would be far more palatable a design if it was 6 slots over 4).>Summoner got Pact of the Chain and very limited spell slotsIn some ways, a good portion of 2e's lifespan was spent chasing the Warlockfags without wanting to commit to a full Warlock kit, to only mixed success. People just value the Warlock's nonsense too much to compromise on. Compare to how Artificer got split between Alchemist, Inventor, and now Runesmith and barely anyone bats an eye.>>97827208>Expecting the Lost Omens team to play the game and not wax poetic about shit no one cares abouti envy your naviety~
>>97826961>you aren't doing (the thing that makes you a warlock) but you're getting fucked with by your DIVINE patron because your powers came with a cursecmon man, I kind of see how it could be a similar fantasy but witch is still clearly the pick for a warlock and oracle's class fantasy is clearly more close to... ya know... a mythological oracle....>>97827482I mean mechanically sure I guess but that mechanical perception of a warlock basically only exists in 4th and 5th edition D&D, or things that have copied it I suppose. The basic idea of pact based arcane caster is a much more relevant comparison unless someone was specifically looking to be an eldritch blast bot IMO.
>>97827482>Compare to how Artificer got split between Alchemist, Inventor, and now Runesmith and barely anyone bats an eye.those three classes are all terrible in some way desu
>>97826796>it doesn't have eldritch blast or anything but both are arcane spellcasters who get their magic from a pact with a powerful magic entity. Although I'll give you pathfinder's patrons lean towards the more distant and mysterious rather than the kind that has a chance to breath down your neck.Arcane spellcasting is probably the least important thing from Warlock identity. Hells, you could probably fit them into any of magic types without changing much fluff-wise. Patron being the neckbreather is likely the most important aspect of the class identity thing, whereas Eldrich Blast being customizable thing is probably most important mechanical identity.
How classist and sneering is your character to other social classes? Does your character view peasants like filth, or anyone not scholar like an uneducated vermin, or nobles like tyrannical parasites, or sees settled, urban people, as soft and stagnant?
>>97828140Traditional games?
>>97828174Sure, many are blatantly classist.
>>97828174Are you lost, little one?

>>97828011You can boycott all the UB you want. The overwhelming majority of players won't and each set has outside fans come in and buy product too. Voting with your wallet means jackshit and most of the antiubfags are hypocrites who gladly buy high power UB cards.The only thing that would stop UB is minimum half the playerbase selling their cards and switching to a different game. That's not going to happen, the players who had the will to do so already have done so. All that's left is the weak willed captured paypiggies who will continue cry and seethe and whine and do everything but leave the game they claim to not like anymore.

Been thinking about roads again.
>>97826060>Any good ways to explain the difference between a mortal and a monster in your fantasy setting?I have three different types of soul, the aetheric soul of mortals, the elemental animus of elementals (elementals that have become self aware/distinct "races" essentially) and I forgot what I called the liminal/fae version. So "monsters" would be different from mortals on a fundamental level. Although mortals can become corrupted or otherwise changed into monstrous forms so I guess the distinction isn't so clear cut in all scenarios.
What are your in world slurs? Do elves call dwarfs diggers?
>>97827264Race based slurs aren't really impactful or all that insulting/offensive in my setting. Like the Blooded might refer to "lesser" peoples as stock (as in livestock, you know, because they literally feed off them or use them for their utility). But people are generally more concerned with what the blooded do, not what they say. There are still stories from before the Apex was revived, when powerful blooded did whatever they pleased in their domain, including horrific fleshcrafting and unethical experimentation. So just being referred to with dehumanizing language is basically nothing. Fera will refer to humans as hairless or baldies, since fera are covered in body hair. But it's generally seen as a childish insult with no real impact or venom behind it.Lizardmen will occasionally call the other races apes, but again there is no bite behind it.People got more serious shit to deal with then fantasy racism. Hell, to the people in Centennial, comments about piss and shit are FAR more offensive to them.Meanwhile to the people of Soul, blasphemy in general and especially blasphemy against their main god Sol, are fighting words that will get you killed. They have zero tolerance for it.
>>97822512What kind of stories are you looking to tell or games you want to play?Let your narrative or design goals inform and influence your worldbuilding. For example the whole ecology of magic in my setting is designed from the ground up to be a ongoing conflict motivator that ties directly into why monster filled dungeons exist and are actually a good thing, as well as always giving a reason to go out into the dangerous wilds since it's highly lucrative to those who can consistently survive.

>>97825040I've been looking for a viable alternative to mothership for similar reasons, Death in Space seems at best half baked, the combat rules especially.
>>97827167I haven't looked at that one. You might be able to use stars without numbers. That one has a lot of options
>>97827164I think that name rings a bell, I saw it when I looked up CSC in the archive.It's a really great piece of work, I've been having a marvelous time with it at my Gongfarmers chapter.The next adventure I want to do is a multiple-choice mission where the PCs are offered three jobs from their fixer; >I've got a guy who wants a guy dead. I've got another guy who wants someone...extracted against their will. Nothing bad will happen to him, in case you care. And I also have a straightforward bodyguard/escort gig. Take your pick, I have other runners who'll do the others.Turns out, it's all the same guy. A mob informant is trying to duck out of his deal. The District Attorney wants him to testify, the triads want him dead, he wants to go to Tahiti with his mistress. The PCs will be up against two other teams of runners who have opposing objectives.
Anyone here ever tried using the Veins of the Earth cave generation system? I like how it can make nonlinear and challenging passages, but I can see it becoming repetitive with the limited number of options.
>>97827632Not a fan of abstract maps, honestly. Particularly those that claim to create 3d maps but actually give you 2d planar graphs.
He was in his prime during the 1920s.
>>97826409Mao had no problems with Kung Fu practitioners who were brainwashed into being obedient communist lackeys. Unfortunately for him, there weren't that many around. At least not as many to convince him that a purge was unnecessary.
>>97826423Cultivation novels are essentially about a bunch of guys using magic, alchemy, and violence to transcend to higher planes of existence, it doesn't take much to switch the Celestial Bureaucracy to gibbering idiot gods.
>>97826382>It's a well-documented fact that Ip Man used to be a copThat doesn't mean he kung-fu'd his way through riots or that he trained cops to use wing chun to fight rioters. You're conflating basic training, which all cops do, with the movies where this guy was an untouchable badass.
>>97819486Killed by Jackie Chan
>>97826963Again, Ip Man wasn't the invincible superman of the exaggerated movies based on his life, nobody is capable to put down hordes of people with his Kung Fu irl. But the very fact he was a police officer during times of strife disproves the accusation that "he never regularly fought people", as the fact that he was selected to supervise police training, something a fake master could never achieve in pre-WWII China, disproves the accusation that he was just a moron spewing Bullshido, like many modern chinese lolcows. As for teaching cops Wing Chun, Ip Man did exactly that: several among them went on to be Wing Chun masters themselves, and take students of their own. Apparently, there were a few whose interest got beyond basic training. All of this is well documented: famously, Wing Chun associations very meticulously record master-student's lineages. While you can, technically, print a fake certificate and sell yourself as a true Sifu, trained by legendary masters, you would be immediately sued the moment actual practitioners learn of your existence should you decide to pull this trick with Wing Chun. Bullshido dealers either invent their style or claim to be the last successors of some style among the many that got purged by the commies.

>mimimi, humans don't have their own feature, mimimi, we have to invent somethingNecromancy right here. When was the last time you saw non-human necromancer, lich or vampire? That's right, they practically don't exist because other races are simply inferior when it comes to necromancy and those non-human undead are so pathetic that everyone forgets about their existence in 5 minutes . Except for that one orc, but even he understood that he was worthless and therefore got himself a human body to finally become a full-fledged lich. So yes, here is your feature humans - necromancy, you know that I am right, you can't run away from the truth forever.
>>97816598Anon, millions of normies know what a White Walker is because GoT went mainstream. Those same normies probably have never heard the word "lich" their lives, unless their kids watched Adventure Time or something (another example of non-human undead).
>>97816759>Elder scrolls has plenty of dunmer necromancers.They'd stab you for calling them that. Dunmer are hardcore anti-necromancy except in very strict circumstances. In their view most necromancy is slavery of the dead, which is absolutely unacceptable.
>>97816513I feel like elf undead are exceptionally common in fantasy settings. especially in the kitchen sink of genre tropes that form the backdrop for most tabletop games.
>>97817316Nigga, which famous necromancers/undead does tabletop have aside from fucking Vecna and Strahd? Tabletop is too niche of a medium for this thread and necromancers/vampires in every other medium blow this shit out of the water if you rate by relevance.

If they're so evolved just let them not give a single shit and call everyone a Prince or Baron in the same way that all Banshees wear the same armour. I don't mind the gay or yuri desu that makes more sense to me but the rest of the bs is tiresome. At least when you're scissoring you don't need to worry about soulstones.
