>DM has the party meet an all-powerful Elf sorceress queen>she rewards the party with glowing water, magic rope, rations, and some of her hairHuh?
>>94832660sounds about right
>>94832660Inflation is everywhere
>retard sits down for an activity whose book was written with mashed up nonsense that doesn't fit together>the one running said activity isn't beholden to making anything therein make any sense>retard is surprised when things don't make sense, to the point he has to make a thread to express itCan't say I'm too surprised, just disappointed.
>>94832884Who do you think you’re quoting
>>94832660Well it worked out didn't it?
>>94832905Since you're a newfag, I'll go easy on you.Greentext isn't just for quoting.Now, lurk moar.
>>94832660>The hair is actual a key item that if you show bbeg he will seethe himself to death I'm tired of these fucking mind games Chuck.
>>94832660It's not like they did anything for her, why should she reward them?Hell, they tempted her to darkness. They should be happy she didn't kick them out on their asses.
>>94832660In the book, she also gave an enchanted sheath and a fancy jewel to Aragorn, some fancy belts for Boromir and Merry and Pippin, and a +1 bow for Legolas.
>glowing water>underestimating the value of lightMay it be.
>>94832972you got a standar answer, newfag
>>94833459She gave the bow to Legolas in the extended edition, too
>>94832660What game are you talking about?
>giving out interesting magic items that encourage the players to think creatively instead of paper button bullshitKino
>>94832972>Greentext isn't just for quoting.Yes it is, newfag.
>One hair of the Elven sorceress is worth one gozillion gold pieces by its rarity alone>Never sold it anywayBased Gimli.
>>94834295Who are they quoting? >>94834173 >>94834363 >>94833708 >>94833186
>completely fails to mention the elf king right next to her, because the GM is a retarded coomerWithout them, they wouldn't have their boats and wouldn't know what route to take.Also, he was the one that allowed the dwarf into the forest in the first place.Dumb coomer GMs.
>>94832660sounds like amazing practical gifts. Elf sorceress queens are so thoughtful and generous
>>94832660She's black, they don't have that much money in the Lothlorien hood.
>>94832660>glowing water, magic rope, rations, and some of her hairgamer girl package
>>94832972>Greentext isn't just for quotingJust because you're too dumb to understand quoting (or "quoting") doesn't mean it isn't so, newfag.
>>94832972You must be 18 or over to post on this site, newfag
>what business does a cuck, a coomer and an autist have in the Riddermark?
>>94834871Who are you quoting?
>>94834813What games does Galadriel stream?
>>94832773Would you prefer playing with dee dee or dexter as gm?
>>94832660>>she rewards the party with glowing water, magic rope, rations, and some of her hairAll the fetishes are there.
>>94834009A traditional one.
>>94835165Not that anon but DexterHe'd probably pay full attention and actually be interested in my world's loreDeedee would only play cause it's fun to gather around with people for something
>>94835158She's a variety streamer and plays different indie games you could fit in one or two streams. She also streamed her playthrough of Elden Ring and BG3, and often streams Rimworld.
>>94833237They were on a mission to defeat an enemy of hers she was unable to fight herself.>>94833459And the hair was specifically a request from Gimli who thought it looks better than any treasures, it wasn't her idea.
>>94834654After watching the hobbit I can see why he much desired to speak with gandelf
>>94838017anon, the posted asked dee dee or dexter -as gm-you don't get to gm, they do.
>>94835165Dee Dee.Neither of them gave a fuck about rules, but at least Dee Dee made things fun for most of the players (other than trolling Dexter lmao).Dexter just cheated to be an ass.
>>94832660You seem confused, OP. LotR didn't have a GM. It's a novel, not a game.
>>94832660I know that, she's a hag in disguise and the hair allows her to track the party and listen in
>>94834654Teleporno
>>94838555Ah is that soWell, Deedee would probably be too lax on the rulings, would probably have a generic plot in her campaign, and plus she feels like the kind of gm that would make us follow around a Mary Sue gmpc Meanwhile Dexter might be too strict... Although I get the feeling that he'd allow me to do stuff outside the rulebooks that at least makes sense irl, and he'd have an innovative story for the players; so I pick him.
>>94838676>>94838564Nevermind, I just saw this clip after reading your post: https://youtu.be/5fkTiopwwCs?si=ZiLGFLPbl0zn2tscMy memory was wrong, Dexter is an asshole, and Deedee was probably not that bad.
>>94832660>here, have magical rations that are practically inexhaustible for the rest of the campaignthis is just smart GM'ng since it removes all the forage rolls and need to keep track of supplies
>>94838722https://youtu.be/7O-LIyVuEag?si=AV9cIiexlFeOhdyTFull video is worth watching.To be fair, Dexter's game seemed fun before he pulled the bs with the main boss.But both Dexter and Dee Dee had Mary Sues and generic plots.
>>94834295This is a great bit
>>94838566You're the one who's confused. LotR has elves and dwarves and wizards and orcs. It's obviously based on Tolkien's DnD sessions.
>>94838123>And the hair was specifically a request from Gimlilittle fetishist!
>>94840164He was a fucking sadist he was, making his players sing those song all the time. The game would promptly grind to a halt so some amateurs could sing "over Misty Mountains cold."
>>94840164>>94842937>you're now going to re-read the DM of the Rings
>>94842969>The lighthearted start where we organise Mr Baggins' birthday party to get to know the homebrew>Being rescued by Farmer Maggot from the Nazgul.>We had decided on playing for Hobbits, though the DM thought we were stupid so he makes the friend of Mr. Baggins' into a DNPC to wrangle us along, he also gets a friend of his to play 'strider' who has OP as fuck stats because of his 'Numenorian heritage'>Yeah right>Get bored to death by the Elves in Rivendell.>Whoops, the DM gets some of his mates from the pub to play as well. A elven prince, some noble from the big fancy kingdom down south, the DNPC, and dwarf, and strider, who as it turns out has enough pull on the DM to give him a elven waifu, as well as being the rightfull heir to Gondor, (the fancy kingdom down south, and Arnor (were we live). Totally ruining the Halfling vibe.>Barely make out of Moria because that fucking Dwarf wanted to visit his family.>The DNPC sacrifices himself to stop some demon or whatever, hopefully we won't see him again.>Chill with some other Elves who give us free shinies>Go down south along the river.>The DM realised that a nine-man party is way too big, so he asks the noble to betray us.>The guy was looking for a way out anyway, because he wanted to join a Napoleonic wargame instead>He sics hordes of Orcs, (or were they goblins, don't remember.) Stuff happens, the noble dies and the party gets split.
>>94834363Consider also that, according to folkloric magic rules, said ludicrously powerful elf princess has voluntarily gifted something that could directly fuel dark curses targetting her. It's been long enough since my Tolkien obsessive days that I can't recall if that concept applies in Middle Earth, but if so that speaks additional volumes to the sheer honour and trust she bestowed upon Gimli.
>>94832660Those are all powerful elf-gifts which repeatedly save the party, except for the hair which is MERELY an immeasurably valuable treasure which will symbolically resolve millennia of ill will between two ancient people.
>>94832660>Yeah guys let's have an """""adventure"""" because of a ring
>>94832660>Rewards hero with Wand of Polymorph OtherCheck and mate Galadriel
