Sexy Hooker Edition>Previous Thread>>96694677>what is curseborne?Curseborne is the newest Onyx Path Publishing TTRPG on dark urban fantasy genre. It's about being unapologetic monsters in a world where being monstrous is the least of your worries. In Curseborne, you play as Accursed, descendants of monstrous Lineages lurking in a modern world that closely resembles our own. You rebel against the ancient feuds between these entwined families, as well as against the web of curses that bind you, while fending off inhuman antagonists seeking to claim — or reclaim — your power.>early access download (it's a zip, and the folder is in alphabetical order so go search for it)gofile <dot> io/d/O6yTIy>player's guide drafts/manuscriptsIt's in newvola for now>official websitehttps://www.curseborne.com/>OPP forumhttps://forum.theonyxpath.com/forum/main-category/curseborne>Thread QuestionWhat are your plans for your first character?
>>96744183Can this game replicate HtV 2nd edition, or will that book forever remain the unattainable summit of White Wolf writing?
>TQNetwork Sorcerer. My friend who wants to GM wants to do a Dark Academia setting and players are the students. I'm thinking on playing a female character this time, but I still don't know much about her background.>>96742187>>96741470They said in the early kickstart days they'll try to balance metaplot, something in-between WoD and CofD. So no worries on that part.>>96742389>>96742531I feel blessed someone also want to do a Network Sorcerer like myself. These are ideas and builds are crazy!
>>96744233>I'm thinking on playing a female character this timeWhy? Are you a tranny? Do you know how vomit-inducing listening to a dude attempting to do a femvoice sounds?
>>96744282>when anyone but the GM does "the voices"Gives me the ick
>>96744298>Gives me the ickI see you've already started talking like a woman, faggot. Here's some advice.
>>96744309>xis actually thinks he sounds gruff and bestial or suave commanding and cool while doing his "voice"No, Jeffery, you sound like an absolute mealymouthed faggot just like the rest of us. Sit down
>>96744323>tranny detected>opinion disregarded
>>96744183My first character is gonna be a PowerTap Network Sorcerer I plan on stress testing the game & being as broken as I can get. Take Resources & get a high Enhancement to my spell rolls, buy some really defensive armor to hide in Extradimensional Pockets so I can just "suit up" when the need arises. Force a bond on villains, Soul Scry them later & portal bombs to wear he sleeps. Summon Imp, Bond with Imp, Camouflage them into a wine bottle, gift them to people. Im sure that'll be useful in some fashion.After that I might play something else
>>96744282>why?It's fun!>are you a tranny?No.>attempting to do female voicesOh, anon, no. I don't attempt that. The only time I attempted to do a voice as player is my Vampire Gymbro and everyone in my table likes it. It's funny and endearing.None of my friends care that much for voices. Some try to do and we cheer them for the attempt, be player or GM. If someone is RPing as someone of opposite sex, we just use the power of imagination and that's it, just like any normal TTRPG.>>96744606There's the possibility of you starting your game first than I. If you can report your successes and what you would change, please tell us! I'm really curious on how your experiment will go.
>>96744671>If someone is RPing as someone of opposite sexIt is cringe and retarded, not to mention extremely unconvincing because an average woman requires beaten nearly to death every weekend in order to not fall into delusion that she's a center of the Universe.
>>96744688*requires being beaten, internet goblins ate a word.
>>96744183i really like the idea of a memori sorcerer who either is from a already solved epoch or has been in so many that her knowledge about the main timeline is less than ideal including her own personal relationships, but they are a player's guide family so my first character is mostlikely going to be a zed who commited suicide in life and is now deeply jealous of everything that can just die
>>96744221>HtV 2nd edition>White Wolf writingThe Player's Guide will feature Hunters, but that part of the manuscript hasn't been revealed yet.>>96744183Maybe you should mention that the Ashcan edition is currently free.
>>96745245Why is it called the Ashcan Edition?
>>96744846My idea for a possible Memori Sorcerer is a guy from a different timeline/alternate history/Epoch/whatever who is hunting his wife's killer, who is also a different version of himself. He'd be a boozy old asshole living in the house of a woman thats not his real daughter, just another version of his real daughter that he left behind. Trying to build Bonds with this replacement family & holding off his suicidal thoughts with empty hedonism & absurdity.
The thing that stumps me about this book is. Who the hell am I going to play this with? Because who is this for? Certainly not new gamers. They don't know this exists. Old gamers? Maybe, but the book's writting is so geared towards a demographic they aren't apart of anymore its downright alienating from the get. And besides, would rather hook new/returning players to a system that already holds sentimental value in their heart.Does that just leave kickstarter backers? I don't know who those guys are. And If so, their cellphone numbers better be printed in the back with the index. I'd be nice to play with someone who already has the game.You'd figure the purpose of making a fork off of Nightlife might be to reintroduce the concept to a new/returning audience, but the marketing just ain't it.
>>96745849Made by Gen Xers, for Millenials, but marketed to Zoomers to justify the Xers getting paid for making a spiritual successor of a spiritual successor like a Xerox of Xerox
>>96744323>Player does gruff voice>Sounds like a cartoon dogKeeping a straight face is difficult sometimes
>>96745849Just for people that like urban fantasy, anon.
