I think that more games aught to feature ducks. Post ducks to remedy this
>>97792439I think you should play more games.
>>97793218You too
>>97793254I play too many games.
>>97792439>aughtWhat?
>>97792439Mila is that you? For context on picrel, the noblewoman npc that the players worked under in a campaign i ran was this elf girl, who due to how the system works was rolled up as a military strategist who had never been in a fight, which i reasoned as that she was playing an in-world equivalent of 40k with wooden ducks or something (because the elf girl is actually 12 feet tall)This then escalated into her just turning out to be an autist who really likes ducks. She would gift people duck-shaped memorabilia, once spent a month in her stufy painting her wooden ducks so she had a uniform regiment, and refused to eat duck (every other kind of bird was in her tendies). The duckhammer jokes also led to me being forced to make duckhammer into an actual game to continue the joke.
>>97792439What would a duck race be even good at?, other than going quack quack and stabbing you in the groin
>>97794517>quack quack gonna stab your sack sackWhat more do you need?
is this a stealth dragonbane thread?
>>97794517Swimming, appearing to be harmless, fighting the undead, secretly being a Humakti Rune-Lord..
>>97794626runequest as well. Dragonbane (drakar och demoner) taking it from runequest to begin with (DoD was originally a derivative of BRP)
>>97794517>What would a duck race be even good at?creating maritime empires that makes them ridiculously wealthy and eventually by hook or by crook leads to them controlling most of the world
>>97794517Whatever they're good at in RunequestAnd since thread is gonna be bumped for a while, someone pill me on ducks in Glorantha and what their deal is. I know they're grumpy little fuckers with a napoleon complex but also have a warrior cult thing
>>97796554Their entire culture is just Orlanthi culture, and their gods are all Orlanthi gods, but renamed to be duck related puns; they say it's actually the Orlanthi who copied them.This is probably not true; their proper name is "Durulz" and they are the most common subspecies of "Keet" - that is , Bird People.They are small, moderately dexterous, and bouyant, but are under a race-wide curse that prevents them from flying, even through magical means (Heroquest notwithstanding).They are frequently subordinated by nearby Orlanthi tribes and forced to provide crops and labour, but they are known to have a well developed cult of Humakt (or as they call him "Hueymakt", a duck-tales related pun) the death-god, and these particular ducks are about as magically dangerous as you would expect any Humakti rune-lord to be.Their other main gods are "Duru-Orlanth" with his wife "Canarda", the unruly "Stormbill" and occasionally "Babeekster Gor"
>>97794345>an in-world equivalent of 40k with wooden ducksThere's a world out there where GWS nabbed ducks too, considering all the stuff they yoinked from RQ/Glorantha(making less rapey broo for instance)
>>97794517The acquisition of wealth
>>97797189I feel like Scrooge is an outlier, given that he was born into a poor-as-fuck family somewhere in Glasgow.
Carl Barks and Don Rosa, miss those motherfuckers like you wouldn't believe.
>>97794264"aught" is just as correct as "ought".
>>97798030Donald and Scrooge are capable of great feat when properly enraged.>>97798058Don Rosa is still alive, though unfortunately he has been losing his eyesight.
>>97798190Yeah, but Donald is perpetually broke as shit, no matter how badly he can wallop someone when he's pissed.
There's a whole serie of french comics about a duck and his lzard friend set in a fantasy land
>>97797145I dont mean humanoid ducks i mean literal ducks that somehow carry guns and wear armor.Also random, but while duckhammer was originally thought out as a 40k joke since im more familiar, i might have to make the actual wargame based on fantasy to cause less logistical mightmares (its being made in-universe by a bunch of bored late medieval noblewomen, so sci fi is kinda out of their scope of knowledge)
>>97794517Raping people to death.
>>97801681That's Broo.If you have too many races that rape people to death, it starts looking a little sussy, biological truth or not.
>>97801846Okay, then how about necrophilia?
There should be a setting where the main races are all birds, and the specific birds are:>ducks>geese>gulls>corvids>cocks
>>97801974I think that's the hat of at least one Vadeli caste.
>>97797145
>>97792439A fair point, and one which I shall not contest.
I probably would be into durulz more if I grew up with donal duck comics at all

I can see fantasy ducks, but where are the sci-fi ducks?
>>97809004
>>97809004FOR ME IT'S
>>97794517They were meant to be Glorantha's hobbits
>>97798340Fuck I remember this, memories unlocked big time. I remember it being great.
>>97802219>corvids
>>97813822I like the theory that they were meant as a filter against Serious Gamers.>>97802845Haven’t replayed KoDP since at least a decade, this bunch looks like stormbulls ?
>>97814811>I like the theory that they were meant as a filter against Serious Gamers.It's a longer story but that's one possible motivation. Personally I love shit like jack o' bears and the more goofier parts of Glorantha
>We're all familiar with the official story of how the ducks were humans cursed for cowardice. Other origins have been put forth, and of them all I prefer that promoted by Steve Lortz, one time associate of Neville's and sadly no longer with us.>It seems in one of the Great Conflicts that festooned Glorantha's early history a cabal of sorcerers sought to summon a thousand foot long fire breathing dragon. Somewhere along the way, a scale marker was misplaced, and instead of a thousand foot long fire breathing Drake, they got a thousand cigar-smoking male ducks. The question arises as to how these male ducks perpetuated the race. The answer is the Barbarian duck's Old Ladies. This is a fantasy world, after all.Steve Perrin
>>97815908You'd never expect ducks to be cigar affisconados, but here we are.Only makes their long distance sea trading empires more logical, really
I had a duck in a recent session. It was swimming on a lake, then suddenly it was gone. It was foreshadowing for what was in that lake.
>>97792439>I think that more games aught to feature ducksI disagree.But you do what you do best, Anon.
Duck have corkscrew-shaped penises that can grow longer than their bodies.
>>97794517They are a standard race in Dragonbane. They are quick tempered, rageful things clearly inspired by Donald Duck in terms of demeanor.
>>97816255What's incredible about that is that duck dicks and duck vaginas are a pretty great example of evolutionary arms racing.The males raped the females so much that the females developed convoluted snatches to deter constant fertilization. The males developed equally convoluted junk to bypass that defense. We are currently at the point that a duck vagina has dead ends to trick the male into thinking they hit the cervix and wasting his load. Who knows what kind of Gygaxian style labyrinth the female will develop in the distant future.Sadly, the idea that confused parentage might inhibit male ducks from murdering ducklings is a false hope. As soon as mama duck shows up to a place where new males are present? The males murder the duckling, usually by just eating them and if the potential fathers see this? They do not seem to give the slightest shit about it. Ducks make orcs seem civilized.
>>97816303>AI generated labyrinth generator modelled on the vaginal contour genes of the common duck.
>>97816246>ducks keep raping each other>only 5% of ducks are fathered from rapeIf duckrape is that inefficient, why did they evolve to act that way?
>>97816415Because 5% is higher than 0%. You just got to rape that duck a bunch to make sure it sticks.
>>97792439That looks like a mallard
>>97798174ought is a modal verb used to express duty, moral obligation, advisability, or probabilityaught is the number 0
>>97792439What is your opinion on Runescape ducks?
>>97801974Probably still brooThey'll rape anything, and some people say they can impregnate rocks and trees. I doubt they discriminate between heartbeats.
>>97816303>Your next adventure is set in a female duck's vagina and you have to venture through her vagina to get the treasure while at the same time evading the male ducks corkscrew penis
>>97816415they just like rape
