Ravenloft
I recently beat the introduction for Ravenloft called death house and I liked it quite a bit. The whole mystery was very well done. My GM was playing it with an additional expansion that added a whole stress mechanic like in darkest dungeon though and that I think added a lot.
He did mention he nerfed it a little bit. He apparently removed some enemy encounters because he thought they were boring. The final boss was untouched though. I am disappointed there is no way to avoid fighting the beast, Like just sacrificingthe kids or another player would have been an evil way to start ravenloft but I guess not.
Anyone else here who has played death house? Also general ravenloft thread.

Reflections, Dreams, and Reality: A MTG Fanblock.
So back on halfchan, I had posted a mtg fanset called "Reflections: What could have been". Well I had gotten some great feedback, and thus, wanted help with inspiration for my next set Dreams. However, that died with the site, and required me to post single cards multiple times a day just to keep the thread from 404.
Here things seem more mellow, so I'll start again. I'll start with the four color 'colorless' cards. which is entirely anachronistic for a set inspired by the earliest days of Magic, but I included them.
Everything else here exists with the intent to be played in the 93/95 card pool, as a proverbial "what if?" set. I did modernize the text (since this is the fourth draft of the set).
Also after these four cards, green text will be mechanical comments, red text lore comments.
I'd appreciate all feedback, praise, hate, ect. I'd also appreciate any art recommendations, with the one cavet they have to be public domain art. Now, lets go.

Pathfinder 1e
Lets find out if fullchan likes pf1e. I don't have any fancy pasta for a general
and generals are fucking gay anyway, so I'll open with a funny optimization question:
Consider the wyrwood race:
https://aonprd.com/RacesDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Wyrwood
Look at it. Look at this shit.
>int bonus
>dex bonus
>counts as a construct
Construct traits are
INSANE. You get +10hp at level 1 for being a small construct, a slew of immunities, and most importantly, qualify for construct modifications
https://aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=980
>gain +2 to a stat for 5k if you have craft construct
Now this is where its at. no more limits based on headbands and tomes. PUMP IT. Sadly, this has a heavy feat tax: craft wonderous, craft arms/armor, and craft construct.
The twist is you need to be offline for this to work. Lets assume that a PC knows how to turn themselves on and off. You need somebody else to work on your body while you're offline. Enter the valet familiar archetype:
https://aonprd.com/ArchetypeDisplay.aspx?FixedName=Familiar%20Valet
>Able Assistant (Ex): A valet’s master treats the valet as if it had the Cooperative Crafting feat and shares Craft skills and item creation feats with the valet.
So now we have a helper that can work on the body while inactive. Here's where things get tricky:
Those craft feats, without class features, require level 7 at minimum. 3rd level (caster level requirements) for craft wonderous, then 5th and 7th for arms/armor and construct. The familiar is also required, which means you either need skill focus and eldritch heritage(arcane), or a class that grants familiars. Anything that gets a familiar and full caster progression will work, but wizard can do this easiest with bonus crafting feats as arcane discoveries, which could actually bring the combo online at level 5. Since you're already getting an int/dex bonus, this is probably the best option.
Aside from the obvious charisma stacking (which would severely delay access to craft construct), what else would you do with a wyrwood and craft construct?

Yu-Gi-Oh
My apologies if this doesn't go here.
This board doesn't have a thread for this game, even though we know a lot of people here play either master duel, the tag force/world championship games or in real life. Here's some links anyway, the game is actually pretty easy to understand.
>Master Duel
<https://store.steampowered.com/app/1449850/YuGiOh_Master_Duel
This is the official simulator, made by KONMAI itself. Very F2P friendly if you want to build a certain deck (or just buy 3 structures, also very cheap, with dragonmaid and zombie being the best ones), and recent changes have made the experience "on-rails", so just download it and give it a go.
Your first purchases should be the staples: Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring, Maxx C, Infinite Impermanence, Called by the Grave and Crossout Designator. These go in every deck, and you need 3 of each besides Called by the Grave (2) and Crossout Designator (1)
>EDO Pro
<https://projectignis.github.io/download.html
The best unofficial simulator bar none, really fast with updates, runs on potato computers/phones and you can customize just about everything for free. Not a lot of people playing online though, but at least it's chinese-free.
Doesn't have a story/solo mode, so you just build your deck and take it online, still useful if you want to learn the ropes.
>YGO Omega
<https://omega.duelistsunite.org/
Botnet, bitcoin miner and takes a lot of resources, it's still an alternative as it has a lot more people playing online, however the program is notorious for using a lot of resources and the devs outright telling people to fuck off when asking if the code will ever be made public, so everyone takes it as the game mining bitcoin for them. It also needs a discord account to play online in the first place.
So why even bring it up, you say? Because the UI is less of a clusterfuck than EDO, and it's less autistic if you want to play against bots, as Omega lets you duel them regardless of how many illegal cards they run, so it's a decent choice if you want to test out a certain deck before you take it online in EDO or irl before you spend all your savings on shiny cardboard only to lose to a a fellow autist who spent more on even shinier cardboard.
>Other links
<https://yugipedia.com/wiki/Yugipedia
The only decent wiki, and the devs are still a bunch of tranny lovers, they infamously removed the "list of female monsters" after a tranny made a video about it, stating how transphobic
LOL and irrelevant it was, even though there's a reason for its existence (in the anime ZEXAL there's a card, Zombiestein, that won't attack female monsters, and over time people just kept adding to that list).
<https://ygoprodeck.com/
Go here to get an idea of what your deck should include, i'm not saying just copy paste someone else's build and use it, but checking out someone else's deck can give you ideas on what to run, as you probably don't remember what every single card does (there's around 30k now) and how they could benefit your deck.
<https://www.tcgplayer.com/
If you ever need a card, check prices here first, as local game shops will rob you blind. If you can't buy it here because it's out of stock, your only other real choice is ebay.
>Overall tips for TCG/OCG
Use sleeves, dragon shield if you don't mind the price and ultrapro if you do, both are really good.
Konami sleeves are trash, however they're really pretty, so only buy them if you're planning on maxing out the rarity of your cards and double sleeving them.
Double sleeving is unnecessary, and even in local tournaments people will ruleshark you about it, which can lead to a DQ. So just double sleeve your favorite decks and only use them in locals against friendlies.
Don't go crazy on a deck box, as long as it can hold your deck (40 to 60 main deck cards, 15 extra deck cards and 15 side deck cards), field center and a single dice it's more than enough.
Unlike master duel, you don't need to buy ALL the staples, only buy what you need, unless you fancy wasting all your money on cardboard, believe it or not this game is addicting.
Don't be afraid of playing online/irl against randoms, the game is played mainly by autists. Just steer clear of metafags and trannies.

Idea thread
A thread for posting Ideas. Can be stories, Items, campaigns or even entire systems if you have an idea for those. I will start!
So the idea is for a weapon, for reference I am going to use D&D rules. It is a sword simply called "Tyr". Its a +5 longsword but it has a curse that makes it so every time you enter combat you must do a willpower DC 15 saving throw. This is to represent the fact that the sword makes you feel far more afraid than normal. If you fail your character is paralyzed with fear and must overcome the DC 15 saving throw to snap out of it. On top of all of this you have disadvantage on any saving throws involving fear.
Why does a sword named after the bravest of the gods make you afraid? its simple. The sword itself is a test of bravery, Only those who can overcome their fear are worthy of wielding it. Much like how Tyr, The bravest of the gods overcame his fears time and time again. DC check is probably way too high though. Any thoughts?

House Rules Compendium
We share here our tables house rules, here some of mine:
>D&D 3.5e (not always all enabled at the same time though)
• Group alignment at chargen the group pick an alignment between L/G, L/E, C/G and C/E as the shared party alignment, the individual characters can take any alignment that is of one step deviation top from that (eg: group is L/G, available alignments are then L/G, L/N and N/G);
• Iconic characters each pc has to have a combination of charoptions unique to his own, the only exception is picking "human" for the race;
• Elite fallback when generating stats players are allowed to make 2 arrays using 4d6 drop the lowest and selecting one between the two and the Elite array (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8);
• Called shots are sunder attacks using the rules for sundering a carried or worn object and the localised damage optional rules from the DMg p.27. Making a called shot with a ranged weapon requires to be in 30ft or less distance from the target and counts as a full attack action. You can't make a called shot against creatures immune to critical hits;
• Roll for Common there are multiple "lingua franca" in the world, each specific of the regional mercantile clusters and each of them requires a roll on the Speak Language skill (much like in SpyCraft) using the Decipher Script skill rules (CD is determined by the information complexity, cultural familiarity and degrees of separation, like geographical distances);
• Feats retraining during character advancement it's possible to swap a feat for a new one or a chain of feats (up to a number of feats equal to the feats total available for the specific level) extending the timeskip necessary for the advancement and, optionally, expending money for training, as specified by the optional rule for training cost/time at p.197 of the DMg (Learning Skills and Feats);
• Skills retraining as for Feats Retraining, the maximum number of retrainable ranks is equal to the rank cap of the specific level. You can't reduce a previous known skill at 0 ranks though;
• Falling stunt fall damage is applied normally unless the character has no means for mitigating the fall (eg: being at arm reach from a wall), in which case the effects of localised damage (DMg p.27) are applied. On top of that if the character is free falling from more than 400ft the falling damage triggers a Coup de Grace;
>GURPS
• Secondary Traits Cap all derived traits (secondary attributes like Per, Will, etc.. and Skills) are capped at +30℅ of their main Attribute score (eg: with IQ 10 the maximum related Skill level is 13). Advantages (eg: Talent) can be used to break the cap;
• Reduced Disadvantage Budget the point total available from disadvantages is set at 30% (instead of 50%) of the Character Points budget;
• Combat Reflexes fix the Enhanced Defense bonus included is no more;
• Armor fix the optional rule for edged weapon damage from the Low-Tech is enabled;
• Strength discount for high TL for each level above TL 8 the cost of Strenght gets reduced of a 10℅ (capping at 40℅);
>Stormbringer (and other related d100 roll under games)
• Blackjack resolution (taken from Delta Green) in case of opposing rolls the roll result more close to the TN wins;
• Dubs (Taken from Hârnmaster) a result of doubles indicates an extraordinary outcome (critical success/failure);
• Push (Taken from CoC) if you fail a roll you can push your luck for a new roll risking a critical failure;
• Skill synergy instead of rolling at default if the character has a skill thematically related can use that instead at half of its value. If does so cannot get skill advancement for both, cannot score a critical success nor push;

/GURPSGEN/ - GURPS General (Refugee Edition)
THE OP'S PDF:
https://anonymousfiles.org/files/f8805a595539/
GURPS is a modular, adaptable system, capable of running a wide range of characters, settings, and play styles, with a level of detail varying from lightweight to completely autistic.
Optional rules allow you to emulate different genres with a single system, or even switch genres within a single game.
A nearly complete archive of GURPS books can be found by those who pay attention to file extensions.
Never post direct links to the archive anywhere.
If you're wondering where to start:
- The Basic Set covers everything, including a lot of optional rules you probably won't use.
- A genre guide can be found in the archive, under Unofficial/GURPSgen. It tells you what extra books and articles you may find useful for many common genres.
- How To Be a GURPS GM is a good read even for players.
- GCS (gurpscharactersheet.com) is an excellent character-builder software, with page references to all the books and the option to export to both Foundry and Fantasy Grounds.

Dual Lands
I think I'm just going to start printing proxies of cards on the reserved list and handing them out willy nilly to local players so people will stop crybabying that it's "unfair" that somebody proxied a $800 land that's only $800 because of artificial scarcity, when they could just as easily have printed one for themself too for a couple of cents. Like FINE bitch, here I did it myself FOR you. Swap out a Woodland Stream and let's rumble.
>hurr durr printing hurts the game, printing is illegal
They're on the reserved list WotC literally cannot sell them any more, they're losing not only zero dollars but zero hypothetical future dollars. And they spelled out they were fine with proxying back in 2016, as long as it's not at official tournaments and you're not trying to sell them as real cards. Nobody is going to confuse a Taiga with a minecraft fox eating berries in the art as a real-ass card. Well, okay I suppose that is more plausible these days than it once was, but whatever I can replace the oval/acorn with a dickbutt or something too, it's not that hard to make it obviously a proxy to a potential buyer.

Ironclaw
Ok I know how this looks but hear me out. Ironclaw has a pretty neat looking system underneath the anthro characters. How it works is that basically you have several different dice depending on your skills, career and gifts. You roll all of them and instead of adding them all up you only take the highest showing number. I thought this was neat since it means lower dice like D4 and D6 can still be useful since difficulty checks seem to generally be on the lower side.
Character stats are also kinda funny. They are represented by dice instead of numbers. So when making a character you assign dice to attributes, a D4 in body might represent a weak and scrawny rat. On the contrary a D8 in body might mean the character is quite fit. The funny part though is that both Career and species are stats. So assigning a D4 to a rat would mean that character is really bad at being a rat. Conversely putting a D8 in Species means your character would be far more rat than he is human. Not even anthro anymore, He is just a rat.
I am going to be playing this with the group on friday and I am very excited.

Elf Fashion
What sort of attire do you think elves should wear as part of their culture? Human styled fantasy clothing? Fantasy nobility dress? What about in battles? There's really no set sort of mold that elves fit into attire wise the same way something like a dwarf, human, or hobbit does. Just think it'd be neat to know what kind of aesthetics people think fit with them.

It is the year 1,006 AR, and the planet is in danger. From a distant star a deadly solar wind is expected to run through and destroy Rel’tar civilization as we know it. Nat’oar may not be the only world colonized on Ste’lar but projections indicate that all worlds are in danger. That is where you come in-Starship Trifect of the Outpost Program. Your mission-to construct a ship designed to land and create a colony for the millions of Rel’tar onboard a giant arkship suitable for life. With no habitable worlds in sight it will be hard work, but it is the only option. Federal Command expects good results despite other ships being constructed.
The ship has already finished construction on it’s superstructure and a rotary system to simulate 1g gravity in sections like cyropods. There is no time to try and restructure it’s shape but there is still room to install subsystems and place in minor modifications. Which is good since the ship itself is extremely bare-bones at the moment; lacking in many vital components for the journey ahead. With only 1 year to go-there is much work to be done. Some say too little to even test out many systems.

I'm trying to start GMing a game of Lancer soon for a group of mostly normalfag friends who have only played 3.5 and 5e and have never run the system before, does anyone have any advice or fun stuff to do with the system?

Whining about modules
I was told to repost my post from /v/ onto here so I'm going to do it. Let's talk about modules that you hate from any system. Any books that you fucking despise, and if you want, compare them to ones you like.
All of my shit is mostly homebrew, I use books of course for monsters, characters, maps and items, but I make a lot of shit myself. That is because I absolutely fucking despise some of the official adventures. Descent into Avernus is a literal joke, it ruins Baldur's Gate as a setting after Murder in Baldur's Gate made it into such a fucking good setting for adventure.
Generally Murder in Baldur's Gate was a top tier adventure, even if it was slightly railroady.
>Expands the city so much that it feels like a perfect starting city with a shit ton of things to do in it and interesting politics
>Introduces a cast of really good characters
>Gives the players the illusion of choice, which although I usually disagree with, I think the story that is told is so fucking good that it is deserving
>Gives an actually good story with an actually good, gray conflict with a political story that could geniuently be a reflection of our real world, in a very subtle manner.
Murder at Baldur's Gate is a story about extremism and violence, about political violence to be exact and how it spirals out of control, and good intentions leading into hell. It is set in a refugee crisis, and struck between three major political players that all want to improve the city in one way or another, but all of them being manipulated by Bhaal to serve as vehicles of his rebirth. And it's done in such a fucking amazing way that it geniuently feels moving even if you just read through it. And it it quite obvious that it was written by Ed Greenwood, it makes great use of the games as well.
You have a choice between three characters that you can support (Pics related)
>Ulder Ravengard - A simple son of a blacksmith who rose through the ranks of the Flaming Fist due to his geniuent honestly and adherence to the law. He is a pragmatic politician that wants to make the city into a lawful place, but instead due to his actions and constantly instigating violence he turns into nothing else than a fascistic, brutal dictator at the end of the campaign
>Rilsa Rael- A Calimshan Crime Lord, someone who is at the head of the Calimshyte Refugees which are discriminated against in Baldur's Gate, generally forced to live outside of the city in their own ghetto. She wants to protect the underclass of the city and do good for the refugees, but as time goes on becomes nothing more than a simple, violent murderer.
>Torlin Silvershield- An aristocrat from the Upper City who wants nothing more than to make sure that the city's traditions are upheld as well as making sure that it survives, but in the process of trying to enforce his vision of what is the best for the city, he becomes a skull and dagger schemer.
No matter which one of them you pick, they will keep instigating violence against each other, trying to do different power plays believing themselves to be completely in the right and completely refusing to meet on even ground. They are all extremists, good-intentioned ones, but still extremists, which are too blinded by the idea of protecting the city to realize that they are the ones killing it. It's such a well-written conflict, especially that every single one of them does something fucked up at the end.
Ulder turns Baldur's Gate into a Police State with mass executions for even the slightest crime.
Rilsa Ravengard goes against the city in a bloody coup and frees several prisoners from the prison.
Torlin Silvershield tries to blow up the fucking parliment.
The only choice you have is who will become the next Chosen of Bhaal and cause his rebirth, you can not avoid it, but two of them will realize they fucked up depending on your choices while the other one will go on a murder spree. Ulder Ravengard will start shooting at civilians from a ballista, Rilsa will go full slasher villain and Torlin will poison most of the aristocracy. Your heroes will go there, kill the newly risen Chosen of Bhaal and the city will be left forever scarred by the events that happened, with your heroes deciding afterwards if it learns anything from it or not.
I really like this plot, because it is subtly written, being really mostly about how political violence spirals out of control to the point where no one actually profits off of it and everything becomes worse. It's a really good message, and written in a way that isn't completely fucking annoying. Descent into Avernus on the other Hands is fucking awful in every concievable way.
>Ulder Ravengard is portrayed as someone who is the only person who keeps the Flaming Fist from becoming a brutal police organization, despite the fact that he was literally supposed to be part of the problem
>The adventure literally fucking railroads the players by sending FUCKING DEATH SQUADS after them until they comply with it.
>The Flaming Fist officers are outdone by fucking WORKER GANGS. And I'm 100% sure this is a rerence of some braindead communist to worker unions.
>Following the previous point, while Murder at Baldur's Gate handles its politics beautifully, technically making some allusions to fascism, it actually explains how such a thing happens and why it's a bad thing, and makes it work in the context of its story. Meanwhile Descent into Avernus just makes the Flaming Fist into the bad guys, despite the fact that they were always supposed to be Lawful Neutral. And they don't even go all the way and use the actual flaws of Ulder Ravengard, who is a good fucking character in Murder at Baldur's Gate, but is... just handled fucking terribly in Descent into Avernus Probably because he is black, so all of his bad qualities that made him compelling are shoved to the side, despite the fact he is literally said to be on a road to becoming a fucking fascist in Murder at Baldur's Gate and becomes one during the adventure.
>It spends a lot of fucking time explaining Baldur's Gate and yet uses it for only ONE FUCKING CHAPTER before moving to Candlekeep and then Avernus.
>Not only that but IT ISN'T EVEN FUCKING GOOD AT IT. It activelly FLANDERIZES THE FUCKING CITY and makes it worse. Murder at Baldur's Gate has a similar description of the city... and YET IT IS BETTER IN EVERY CONCIEVABLE MANNER. It's more detailed, written with more care, the locations are described better, and it lacks the absolutely ridiculous ideas of fucking butcher gangs going fist to fist with the fucking Flaming Fist. It's better in EVERY SINGLE CONCEIVABLE WAY.
>The entire adventure constitutes of different NPCs spewing exposition to the characters while moving from place to place randomly, in a completely convoluted manner while not being able to stick to a fucking theme or actually take the time to allow the players to get accustomed with the characters besides a fucking Hollyphant that follows them like fucking Navi.
>The actual SCUMMY FUCKING ADVERTISEMENT THIS ADVENTURE DOES, WITH PUTTING THE SYMBOL OF FUCKING BHAAL ON BOTH OF THE FUCKING COVERS WHILE THE ADVENTURE DOES NOT INCLUDE BHAAL IN ANY WHAY OR FUCKING FORM. At best you can claim that the first chapter says something about a cult of the dead three which you deal with in the CONSTRAINTS OF THAT FIRST FUCKING CHAPTER. Bhaal is not even an overarching threat, he geniuently has FUCKING NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORY.
I'm activelly using info from Murder at Baldur's Gate in my campaign while I basically threw Descent into Avernus into the trash save for a few maps, enemies and items. It's literally fucking useless. Never fucking get it, even pirating it is not really worth it. Maybe at best for some maps.

Waifu trading game
Some friend recently told me about this idea and you might find it interesting:
https://youtu.be/YseF7K2voe8
It's a waifu trading game, the basic description of the game is:
>Every waifu is unique and one waifu can be owned by one user at a time
>You get 10 waifus when you first start the game
>You can get a new waifu every three hours
>You can trade waifus with other users
>You can give a waifu to another user and he loses the ability to get a new roll for the following three hours
So, with that basic ideas in mind, I'm pretty sure it won't be hard to port it to a Python script that uses Lynxchan as user interface. I already worked on several lynxchan apps in the past so that won't be a big trouble, what would be needed is a database of waifus with their respective pictures, franchise name and subject tag (if someone wants to play with vydia,anime or cartoon waifus only for instance) and a server; the rest seems pretty straight forward. Since we are on an imageboard and there aren't accounts, tripcodes would be used to track on the waifu collection of every player.
So what do you think?

Emotional Support Homunculus (or, the Life of Ergh)
I had posted a cringe first draft of this right before The Fall. Since then, it grew way bigger than I expected. Behold, a gothic rom-com monstergirl waifu.
>TFW No Emotional Support Homunculus :'(
We start with an incredibly lonely alchemist dabbling in homunculi, his motivations sadder than he’d like to admit. The principles have been well-trod; easy to grow, hard to sculpt, harder to keep alive. Those of a grim persuasion prefer undead minions, those of an ethical bent use golems and other constructs. Neither make for good company.
Initial results...aren't great. A meat-puppet: Pluripotent cells grown over bone, tubing, and metal. Hairless and pale, all-black eyes, crouches like a spider, eats bugs, drools, blinks out of sequence. Also, it falls apart over the course of seven days and has to be rendered down and re-spawned (no kidneys/liver/glands). Not the "companion" he was aiming for, but it had the manner of a dog that speaks.
“Like it here. Like you. Like being.”
___________
After a few more iterations, he's got something. Trying to give it some willowy grace, it comes out lanky but soft, soft enough it needs clothes to not distract him. To the degree that such things have gender, it's female. It stands up most of the time, though it's posture leaves something to be desired. It still drools and eats rats it catches in the dungeon (teeth are human, but the jaws open too far, purple tongue too long). A bit needy, as well.
"We want to be good for master. Is Ergh good?” “Ergh” was a gurgle from it hawking up protoplasm, but the name stuck. It fetches, it carries, it asks questions and seems to understand the answers, the contours of its face are not-unpleasing. Also, it devours books, his modest library occupying it every moment it's not at his heels. Textbooks. Treatises. Travelogues. Trite bodice-rippers. He puts a second chair by the fire, the big, musty one that sat too long in the under-under-basement.
It still degenerates over the course of a week; by day 6, unstable and delirious, day 7, it's leaking goo and in obvious discomfort.
>“Everything blurry. You, face. Book, words. Us, inside.”
He renders it down and doesn't spawn a fresh one for a while. But damn is it lonely in a dungeon lab beneath an abandoned manor in a haunted forest in a cursed kingdom. Reading of an evening becomes unbearable, as he looks to the chair by the fire where Ergh isn't. He comes up with a procedure that'll turn the one-week lifespan into maybe a month, extracting and filtering the humors, topping it up with fresh vitae-matter. Still has to get melted down and re-grown eventually, though. Some memories carry over between renderings, as he isolates brain fluid and uses it in the next iteration.
____________
It drools less, it's posture improves. One night, it finds a book of woodcuts, ladies posing in expensive dresses, faces lovingly detailed. Ergh looks from the pages to its reflection in a beaker. The alchemist watches.
“No lines over eyes”
>I tried giving you eyebrows once, but you wound up with fingernails growing out of your eyesockets. Silly of me, I always over-think.
He retrieves a small wooden box, a cosmetic kit, left behind from an ill-fated tryst with a witch.
“What is?”
>Box of eyebrows. Ergh's box now
“Gift sweet, you sweet. Means you care.”
It draws, wipes the black marks off, draws again.
"Is Ergh pretty now, Master?"
He takes in it’s face, the round forehead, button nose, delicate chin. It blinks one eye, then the other.
>Ergh already pretty.
It inhales and gives him the lightest slap on the shoulder, smile radiant.
“Liar. Face works better with box. Look.” it waggles elegant black lines. “What say?”
>Skeptical?
“Nooo”
>Suggestive?
“Cloooose”
>...Saucy?
A grin, a nod, a bitten lower lip. She turns back to the mirror, now applying something from a tube around her mouth.
>Also, not liar.
“Are”
>Isn't
“Is”
She looks at him again, runs the tip of a purple tongue lightly around her mouth.
“Red on lips tastes good. We try not to eat.”
__________
The next time it, she, starts falling apart, he can't handle it.
Tries everything
keeps her alive for a few extra days. They're not good ones.
She reaches out to him, running her fingers shakily over the back of his head, and he holds her other hand in both of his.
"Don't mind going, so long as we come back. Hurts us we hurt you." Her voice is wet. Everything is.
He goes half a year before he remakes her, this time with a liver. With that, and proper care, she lasts months. The degenerations hurt more, but happen less. They touch now, lightly but often. Hands to hands, palms to wrists, a knee against a knee. He takes deliveries of fresh books, she asks for volumes on cooking, plays (bawdy farces, mostly), and dry histories of accounting practices.
“Fun to watch numbers dance, on page, in head.”
__________
Ergh luxuriates in a cauldron by the kitchen hearth, humming a tune this her has never heard, cleaning off the protoplasm from her latest re-birth. A purple tongue sticks out between her teeth as she rummages around in the warm, fragrant water. The alchemist enters, holding fresh linens, averting his gaze in awkward politeness. Her black eyes follow him. Her tongue retracts. The rummaging pauses, then becomes slower, more…specific. A sponge floats to the surface, abandoned.
>Enjoying yourself?
He’s still looking away, arranging the linens on a stool. Her eyes roll back, the blackness now opaque.
“...Yes…” her answer floats into a soft sigh.
>Wouldn’t think you’d want to spend more time in a…vat
The sounds he’s hearing make him pause, but they stop as he turns to the cauldron. Ergh looks back at him innocently. One eye blinks, then the other.
“Warmer than between.” She raises a leg from the water, suds dripping from a long, narrow foot that extends towards him. “Humors clot in small bits sometimes. Rub?”
>Why does this feel like a trick?
“...Because is?”
__________
The other scholars and practitioners are amused when he visits the Symposium on Forbidden Arts with her as a plus-one. A man with a cloak made of screaming faces sits next to them, talking around a mouthful of sweetbreads.
>Your work really is impressive, it can use a knife and fork, it even looks hurt that I'm talking about it like it can't hear, excellent stuff. We all have our pets and slaves, but you've really gone above and beyond. Your obvious attachment to it is a bit unseemly, though.
"Master, we should go. These people are bad. Not friends."
>evil chortling intensifies
Underneath the table, his hand takes hers, gently. A severe woman with a veil covering her lack of eyes she doesn’t need speaks of patronage in a patronizing tone.
>If you can culture compounds of such quality, I know a sorcerer who’s always looking for medical serums. Henchmen need a health plan, and excruciated prisoners need to survive excruciation. Apparently his keep bleeding out too soon.
The pair look to eachother while a thumb caresses a palm, unseen. Ergh shrugs, her frown lopsided.
“Means more books? We know they not free.”
__________
Ergh checks her eyebrows again in an alembic, adjusts her robe to barely cover her narrow shoulders. She’s done what she can with it; extrapolating from the woodcuts of elaborate gowns. It falls open scandalously as she bends down, one elbow on the table, chin in her palm, as she watches him work. “Clever fingers. Good for titrations.” A smile leaks into her voice
>Good thing too, it’s tedious work, I’d hate to have to start over. Could you pass me the-
His eyes drift laterally, then bulge. A bead of liquid falls from a dropper, making a curl of green smoke rise as it eats a small divot from the wood of the table.
He turns his head to find their noses almost touching. She lets the moment stretch. He doesn't look away. Finally.
“We want you.”
>Uh….ah…I…you mean…abed?
“Here, Floor. Now.”
>Uh, what about rug? By the fire?
“We compromise.”

Creating new OC for the board.
I don't believe this place will get enough traffic to see any kind of /tg/ revival, but on the rare chance it does, I'd like to discuss how we can create new OC for the board. Game systems, settings, whatever.
There are two main issues that plagued 4chan's /tg/. One was worldbuilding without any real order or goal to work towards. Second was faggots like Neckbeardia poaching content to resell or exploit.
The first one has a clear, but not easy, solution. If you are serious about creating something, then the you should take a leadership position and decide which contributions from other posters to incorporate into it. If someone is just throwing out vague trivia like 'The elves in this setting eat gold and hate raspberries', then you should just ignore that poster as a noncontributor.
The second problem admittedly is a much worse one and I'm not sure what to do about it. Neckbeardia was able to slightly rebrand Nightshift and got a Kickstarter for it to the tune of 25k British pounds. I've had two ideas in this regard:
>1. Works are published with a Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license, thereby preventing fags from taking OC and reselling it
>2. Establishing a brand or group on places like Drivethrurpg that exists to publish OC strictly under a free noncommerical license (call it AnonWorks or something like that)
Then again, the second thing might not be an issue if content poachers never bother coming here. What do you all think?

I've been working on a proper tabletop RPG system on and off for the past three years or so. It has a name, a world, about a 70% complete engine, and a lot of story behind it.

If anons are interested, I'll start making regular posts in this thread, dropping excerpts from my design docs, and discussing the methods and philosophies for all the systems so anons can tear it a new asshole and maybe have a good time with it.

>D6 based
>Skill based

To start off, here are some GURPS resources i can post within the file limit.
Also, it's not advised to post the sources directly, as there are bots that can and will take down the repositories.
so use base64 or other cryptographic/encoding methods to avoid this.
Is this because 4/tg/ went down?
yes.

Thread question:
What was your first kit, and why did you start the hobby?
This is a WIP header, if anyone coming from 4chan has an archive or screenshot of the /m/ plamo threads, please share it, I'd like to add the resources from there. And if anyone has suggestions for future threads, share them too, will be a good way to improve it.

Card Based Video Games.
I want to talk about video games centered around card games like Master Duels, PSX's digimon card game, and so on. Got any interesting games you want to talk about. Simulations like Chaotic recode and Yugioh Pro may count as well since they're technically video games. Video Related is Open Batoru, a card game simulator for a Japanese card game called Wixoss.

Silver Age Sentinels.
Howdy anons! for this Role Playing season the gang checks out capes and domino masks.
heres the wiki history
Guardians of Order moved into the d20 market beginning with their new superhero role-playing game, Silver Age Sentinels (2002), which was written by Mark C. MacKinnon, Jeff Mackintosh, and Jesse Scoble, with Steve Kenson and was developed by Lucien Soulban.[1]: 337 Silver Age Sentinels was produced in both a Tri-Stat edition in July 2002 and then a d20 edition released at GenCon 35 later that year.[1]: 337 James Lowder, who had experience with packaging fiction for Green Knight Publishing, moved to assembling book packages for other game companies, including some Silver Age Sentinels fiction for Guardians of Order (2003-2004).[1]: 358 After Guardians of Order went out of business in 2006, White Wolf bought the IPs for some of the company's games, including Silver Age Sentinels.[1]: 339 White Wolf's ArtHaus imprint holds the rights to Silver Age Sentinels.[1]: 228
Dyskami Publishing, founded by Mark C. MacKinnon in 2019, has come out with Absolute Power, billed as the second edition of Silver Age Sentinels.
Well thats drier than a dehydrated dog turd what done been in the sun fer a week. Anyway from the guys who brought you Big eyes Small mouth the sailor moon RPG and with the rights currently held by White Wolf of Vampire the Masquerade fame, we have capeshit: the rpg. There are many systems but this uses a hybredized d20 we thought would we easy to use and learn. First session will show us how the hell that goes.
The GM has once again changed and so we go again into a new system with a new GM. Lets hope for better luck and more fun all around!
And for the departing GM, Au Revoir mon Ami. At least We will always have Paris.
Signing off for this seasons issue of "8chan RPG group: These niggers are fucking gay yo" I am your host, Anonymous. I love you anon.

Wraith: The Oblivion
In this White wolf classic we see troubled development, odd game mechanics, and a difficult to grasp lore.
And all this basically just to RP as a ghost.
Every player has a second player playing his character's shadow. And you had to make a pretty deep backstory to play. An odd duck to be sure. Next week we are doing mummy: the something.

Star Wars TTRPG: Saga edition thread
Thread theme Saga edition
I don't think my players ever realised, because I already made the threads before we started a group, but every RPG I GM I make a thread for, and since yesterday we started SWSE then today I am creating this thread.

Embrace the Emperor, Reject Chaos.
Amidst the stars and cosmic fray
There are warriors who fight each day
Chaos Marines, a twisted breed
And Space Marines, noble in deed
The Chaos Marines, they worship chaos
Their minds corrupted, their souls lost
They revel in destruction and pain
Their actions senseless, their motives vain
They are the soyjaks of the galaxy
Lost in their own twisted reality
With no purpose or direction true
Their strength is but a fleeting hue
But the Space Marines, they are different
Their resolve and honor are magnificent
They fight for the Emperor and his light
Their valor shines in the darkest night
Their power and strength are unmatched
Their discipline and focus never slacked
They are the gigachads of the galaxy
Protecting all from evil's malady
So let us honor the Space Marines' might
And scorn the Chaos Marines' blight
For one is a paragon of strength and grace
And the other is but a twisted disgrace.

Call of Cthulhu/Horror RPGs
I didn’t see a thread about it here or on any other worthwhile imageboard, so I’m posting.
Anyways, I picked up the 7th edition Keeper’s guidebook recently, and I was thinking about running it for a group. Has anyone here run this game, and if so, do you have any advice to share? It’s also worth noting that I’ve never been a GM so any advice generally is also welcome.
And, for people who haven’t run the game but have spent time on the investigator side, I’d love to hear some stories about it. What were your characters like?
Finally, what are some other horror-related RPGs worth playing? Aside from this one and the WoD stuff, I'm not sure that I'm aware of any.

Cyberpunk 2020 & Red
Let's bring some activity to this place. Cyberpunk 2020, created by Mick Pondsmith in 1988. A role-playing game that brings you to the dark world of 2020. Where America went to hell. Where now big corporations run the world and control everything.
Meanwhile, Cyberpunk Red ; its sequel takes place 25 years later. In what is known as the "Red" period because the sky is dyed that color due to radiation and other chemicals on the planet.
So I begin the talk about this wonderful game that has created a whole genre within punk.

Done with WOTC - Card Printing?
Anyone know of a good proxy printer that prints cards that are pretty legit?
I don't intend to sell them, just to have them without giving wizards any more money. I don't care if they don't pass the light test, just close inspection by someone wanting to look at the card.

Mörk Borg
Honestly, not a bad game. Once you add in feretory for the travel and hunting rules, you get a decent system thats pretty easy to pick up, and can please a lot of people. I don't think I'd call it OSR though
