Why is it so common for fantasy rpgs that try to do the "Deep Lore" stuff to always default to Gnosticism or H.P. Lovecraft in a trench coat?
>>97225388Cosmere
>>97225178Elder Scrolls is kabbalistic and buddhist with a dash of generic paganism mixed up in a Tolkien (ripoff) framework.Elden Ring is gnostic, that's what might be confusing you.
>>97225388Dogs in the Vineyard, obviously.
>>97226239Elden Ring is Hermetic/Alchemical much more than it's Gnostic, although there are traces of that in there as well. Elder Scrolls is absolutely Gnostic with some Buddism mixed in, the hell you're talking about. It doesn't even change the name of some Gnostic concepts it uses
>>97227388Cool. Name them.
Ever had to say fuck it this is above our paygrade, and just bail from a dungeon?I get that GM probably put some amount of effort into preparing it and skipping the place would put that to waste, but when the very first encounter makes it painfully obvious pushing on would be suicidal, nobody can really blame the party for doing literally anything else, right?

>>97221542For what it's worth, I don't personally believe that every mentioned faction needs to be a full book faction. Some, like Olms, Neo-Mughals, and Ethiopia, can just be microfactions with only a handful of units.
>>97221653I agree, though I imagine the neo-mughal are too relevant for the lore to not have a book. Even then, I imagine a lot of their units could be re-skins or derivates from the lemurian book.

>>97222828>I don't want to benefit from someone else being in thralldom. Only reason I can tolerate this is a bond is somehow better than the default Malk mental package and I refuse to treat her like a thrall.Oh, I don't mean it like that, babes! Not into that sort of slavery myself, comes with the Tremere turf to not like it overmuch.I meant more, she got a good reading for questions relating to how well her bondage would go. She'd benefit from it, in some way - and she's liking it. That means that the bondage will perhaps continue for a decent while, to good results; and that means that you, yourself, are probably not going to suddenly die tomorrow. Can't be bound to a pile of ash, now can she. Inferring good things for yourself out of readings for other people is a fine art, where you've got to balance an urge to see yourself not die horribly with realism and a bit of skepticism. This, I think, definitely leans towards a justifiable good reading for you, all in all. So you benefit.>>97224898>I was making fun of my sire nagging me, British accent and all that...Oh, I can tell, I just wanted to scold you a little.

>>97226687I mean, if we're assuming a full gender-swap of the Skaven race, the rat-girls would be 'normal' whilst the rat-men would be bloated, unsightly and almost immobile 'Broood-Fathers' sporting a multitude of cocks of many different shapes, styles and mutations.
There was some Skaven POV novels that go into their level of technology. One of the details that I liked was that the average "street" (tunnel) in a Skaven settlement is completely unlit - Skaven scamper through the tunnels entirely directed by their sense of smell, and shops have rags dipped into their product hanging in front of the door, to be smelled, instead of a painted sign. Skaven enjoy having lights, but it's apparently a luxury only enjoyed by very few. That's the level of tech you should be imagining. Other fun details include the "black corn", Skavens' only crop which is grown only in Skavenblight. It's absurdly expensive and disgusting to taste, but the wealthiest compete to eat a handful as a status symbol. Or cultural civil wars where some Skaven settlements just want to live underground peacefully and steal food from humans forever, a religious heresy when the Horned Rat preaches that they must rise and control the surface world eventually. The ongoing tensions with Pestilens, a pretty obvious Nurglite faction that very nearly overthrew the council of thirteen in a civil war generations ago. The ritualized body language that they use to silently communicate, or their ability to spray musks as a way of communicating. I don't hate furrys on principle but putting a Skaven in a shower is badly missing the point of Skaven, which is both to show crushing filth and perdition and to show the total novelty of a society that's nothing like human civilization. It's similar to how gay artists draw Queek gay porn using human body language when the novels give LAVISH examples of Skaven body language that's totally inhuman. Why didn't you draw that? Lack of respect for the source material. Like if you're already gay I can understand why you wanna see Queek buttfuck Ska, sure, but don't make them all cute and smiley. They don't do that. But the straight artists are much, much worse because they're doing a rat with tits and putting her in the shower. Ugh!

I apologize for not posting about this sooner, but thanks Michigan anon for my gift! You really did go above and beyond and I really appreciate it. My kids loved the matcha almonds and I’ve been really enjoying the corn nuts. Thanks for all of the models as well, you hit all of my interests and then included a bunch more as the cherry on top!My favorite part of the package is the Ironskull Boyz from Underworlds. I had a set of these guys when they released but sold them years ago. I’ve never been able to find these models again, so I’m thrilled to have another crack at them. Thanks for everything man!
Hey Anon(s), SantaAnon here. Tomorrow is the 24th, so i've been busy to follow up with everyone I have unaccounted for in my list. I think i've been in contact with everyone who is late to ship their parcel, and also everyone who did not receive anything info from my side. I should have sent you either a tracking number, or some info about a delay.If you feel forgotten, message me! I will be with the family tomorrow and 25th, but should be back on 26th, so dont expect an immediate reply, but i will of course follow up with every one of you.If all things are correct, there are only 2 parcels due to be shipped, but sadly a handful are stuck in delivery service limbo. Which is, all things considered, quite successful.I wish you all a great Christmas!
>>97230924Merry Christmas, SantaAnon; thanks for making this happen for us again this year!
two new players, three long time players. we were supposed to do a new one-shot. Everyone just kinda... sucked? I feel like I was doing my normal GM stuff but they were all so dumb tonight, couldn't think of basic solutions to any problem. we got through maybe 1/3 of what was supposed to be a one-shot. what do you do when players suddenly become retarded? game was barbarians of lemuria btw.
>>97205591Well?
>>97207499>Do they know you expect them to do mapping?Better yet, or worse.OP expected his players to 'map the area', and clearly hasn't given them a dungeon map.If he had given them a map, or even just drawn out the shapes on a notepad, this entire thing wouldn't be an issue.OP is not only a shit GM, but expecting his players to correctly visualize a complex 3d space by verbal description alone, and is getting mad that they fail to intuitively recognize that they've been in a space between two points.
>>97206676Yes the riddle is easy even without making the connection from nitz to knights which is retarded to begin with because you indicate a short sound i. Make it Nitez or shit. Why would that entire retarded setup even exist? If you don't want your players lockpicking a door don't add a door or add a lethal trap as if someone actually protected that room. A set of reinforced bars with no obvious way in would make the existence of a hidden door near the statues even clearer.You are reinforcing a behavior on your players that will make them less likely to engage with the riddle anyway. If they wanna use an ability that they chose to learn, in a way that makes sense, don't "gotcha" them with retarded roadblocks. Instead change the challenge. They wanna bash the door in? Now they have to find a way to banish the guardian ghost. They wanna lockpick it? Now they have to deal with a lethal roomtrap. Did they overcome either of them? Now they "earned" their entry by going ahead with the method they chose and have a sense of accomplishment for 'outsmarting' the dm or feel like their character was useful because the way they built it added to the progress of the story.Once inside you can have them accidentally notice the hidden mechanism and everyone will have a good time about how obvious it was and how they managed to miss it.Stop being a "no" dm and start being a "yes but..." dm
>>97206557>>97206676Gonna be real with you, OP, I would be your kryptonite, because puzzles that have to follow a specific logic you have to understand by somehow presuming the mindset of the DM is the bane of my existence due to how many DMs are not as clever as they think they are, and I suspect your players felt the same way
Who was in the right?
>>97225715https://paeantosmac.wordpress.com/2016/03/25/secret-project-the-voice-of-planet/An excerpt. “Now just take a moment to imagine what it must be like to be in his position. Here he stands at the end of time. He’s an immortal cyborg superhuman. He possesses all the secrets of the universe. He’s created at least one universe to help bend this one to his own ends. He may as well be a god himself. And after everything he has accomplished, after learning every last secret Reynolds has hidden on the technology tree, he still has to humble himself before an alien god and beg to be spared.” “We’ve already seen how he values the acquisition of knowledge above all else. It’s literally baked into the game as his favorite Social Engineering choice. It is thus perfectly fitting that when he is finally forced to make his prostrations, his offering is the sum total of the datalinks themselves. This is a beautiful image; it works on every literary level.”
>>97228179Last time I used the setting with GURPS, it was spring '19 and we played a campaign set in late early game, basically making bunch of recon missions and light skirmishes (Morganites and Miriam). We played as Gaians, we rolled a copter as the content of the very first pod we were tasked to examine and retreive, so a fuckload of Captain Planet jokes followed now that we had a flying recon vehicle. GM meanwhile simply generated random world and used that for our campaign map.We moved to using Ubiquity for SMAC right before covid, the crunch fits much better and allows to acknowledge equipment and its quality/advancement, while being far more aimed toward auto-resolution rather than high probability of success (plus no need to re-calculate 3e source book to 4e mechanics)

>In the game Werewolf: The Apocalypse, the Garou (werewolves) were made to defend the earth from the cosmic forces that threaten to tear it apart. The Garou fight against the Wyrm, the destroyer. It is a struggle against nearly insurmountable odds, especially considering the rivalry between many tribes. These rivalries make it almost impossible for the werewolves to present a unified front against a cosmic force that pervades reality.>From this morass of hatred and mutual betrayal, there is little hope that the Garou can emerge triumphant against a foe so well armed as the Wyrm. The Wyrm promises money, power, sex, and whatever else the heart desires to its followers while the Garou receive no reward for their striving. It drives them deeper and deeper into despair, or into betrayal so deep that they choose to serve the Wyrm instead.Main Rulebooks:>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Rulebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Rulebook>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Second Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Second_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse Revised Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_Revised_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Editionhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_20th_Anniversary_Edition>Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th Edition Corebookhttps://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Werewolf:_The_Apocalypse_5th_Edition_CorebookComment too long.
