>>73619140They sort of got it right in Last Encore. Or at least closer. But expecting Nasu to ever fo anything accuratrly is even more of a pipe dream than expecting it from Gygax.

>>73637163The christian god acknowledges the existence of other gods in Exodus when he says "Thou shalt have no other gods before me."
>>73652153But this could also just be a sort of literally deal, with false gods and all that. It's up to debate. Though I personally like competing deities angle. Jehovah is also pretty often referred to in plural.
What do health potions taste like?
>>73647753Like fresh blood with a spicy cinnamon effervescence towards the middle-end of the sip.
>>73651729I'm certainly not drinking enough cum to find out.
>>73647753The devs of Final Fantasy once released as some merch a 'Potion' in a small vial and it was to drink.Apparently it tasted close to Mountain Dew.
>>73648196Square bottles are best and anyone who says otherwise is a galactic faggot.
>>73653273Shit taste, squaretard. Round bottles are tried and true, the one thing that can filter plebs from those of patrician sensibilities.
If a brothel owner offers you a lucrative side job as stud, would your character breed a new generation of prostitutes for them?

If you want disturbing and effective orcs in your setting, you should model them after chimps. They are literally the closest thing to Tolkien orcs IRL.

>what is this thread for?The aim of this thread is to provide a space for anons to post their magic ideas and systems for discussion, critique, praise and development, to share and be inspired. High, low, grimdark or cuh-razy, enchanted items, artifacts, technomancy or what have you, it's all welcome here. Feel free to discuss both fluff and crunch!>things to rememberMost importantly, please try to provide at least some comment to other posts if you can, be it an in-depth reply, minor suggestion, short clarification or a simple 'x is pretty neat'. We all want some recognition for our ideas, so spread it around.Less important, but worth mentioning, try to avoid multi-post text walls as excessive detail may deter some readers from wanting to read your ideas, so a simple elevator pitch can do wonders. But if you feel a great amount of detail is necessary, no one can stop you, just be aware of your formatting (e.g. small, easily digestible paragraphs as opposed to large unwieldy paragraphs).>why not just use the worldbuilding general?I'm not trying to steal their thunder, there just seems to be a lot of 'how does magic work in your setting' threads so I thought it might be a good idea to condense them into one place where we can all just have a good chat instead of having several mostly empty threads devoid of discussion. I also love wizard shit and want more of it in one neat place.Previous Thread >>73479357
>>73631764What, if anything, did Harry Potter's magic system do well? What would you fix/change, and why?
>>73641164>Also color-coded, mystery-religion style schools of magic are the best way of doing magical societies.Why? What is the second best way?
>>73631764I have two magic systems, material based magic and desire magic.The material based magic has items with arcane energy flowing through them, combine items to create better spells. Has a lot of hard rules, kind of like a science with some secrets to it being kept within witch families.Desire magic is soft magic allowing you to do stuff that the heavy rules of material based magic wouldn't allow. However using it too much isn't advised, strong desire births demons. The strongest users of this magic have a potent connection to the void to flush out their desires before reaching a critical point. The church also utilises void technology to mimic this connection and boost operatives combat abilities.
>>73648044The wordplay with the Killing Curse was clever, in my opinion.
>>73637703They're the best kinds.Words don't necessitate power. The power of the speaker instead determines how powerful a spell is. The limitations are built right in; to how the language is built. Certain words could be hidden or lost over the centuries.I also like word-magic as it gives you some good lore potential with finding out where the magic words come from. I also like it because it makes magic feel distinct from other forms of powers or magical skills; like the Gods have powers other then magic, but they CAN use magic as well if they want. Makes magic feel more like a skill.

How would she fare in forgotten realms?
>>73646545She was the person chosen for the role. She had the right blood, the backing of Merlin, and the sword in the stone chose her. She hid her true gender in life so that people would see her as a king before anything else.
>>73639080There's already a king Arthur expy in the AD&D Moonshae Isles supplement, because the novel was written for a fantasy UK setting that folded before release, so they folded all the work they did for it into post-production Forgotten Realms.This is why the Moonshae Isle is one of the biggest early sources for contradicting lore.But to get back to the point, in 1e he was a level 6 Ranger, in 2e after becoming king he suddenly was a level 14 Fighter with a magic sword.After that I don't think him or his daughters got mentioned again.One was seduced by the stormlord and became a villain.The other fell in love with and married the mage who mentored her since childhood. Also killed the evil sister.
>>73638934i think the real thing to ask is who is the first person that is going to try to stop her in the forgotten realms.and is it going to be ed greenwoods oc of Merlin?
>>73642138Even without her sword and scabbard, shes a super-powered ghost that can go supersonic and is nigh immune to magic
Probably pretty well considering she's a bonkers strong warrior on par with epic martials. Her magic resistance and Luck make her more or less immune to the grand supermajority of non-mundane threats. Basically what >>73650732 said.Muh perfect rule muh honor, charisma, etc means she probably gets deified at some point, too.

Seegson falling stocks edition>General for Free League Publishing Alien RPG>https://thetrove.net/Books/Alien/Has anyone run this game in Campaign Mode? If you have, what was your campaign about? How did it go? Was it fun? How did you handle planet and station hopping?I'm working on my own campaign plot, and I'd like some feedback. If this thread gets any traction, ask and I'll post my current ideas.

>>73651915My one sort of concern with space travel is it's not very clear in the core rules if you need to roll for neural damage if you are in or out of cryo.It can make long journeys seem quite the risk as you need to essentially make a check with a cumulative +1 for each square of the map your ship passes through.Seeing as the ships moved from Sol to Zeta 2 Reticuli (essentially 11.5 squares in distance) and not wig out as soon as they're out of cryo, I call into the question that table and only use it if travelling FTL outside of hypersleep cryo (skip it for synthetics - David seemed fine in Prometheus).Just something to point out.Otherwise, ships have an FTL rating to easily figure how many days it takes to move through a parsec and the crew will hypersleep, so usually it's a timeskip and some roleplay of going into cryo and coming out of it.
>>73652991My take was that HDD's happened if you attempted FTL travel without Hypersleep. And that if you were awakened from Hypersleep without going through the slow procedure of waking up, it could and would actually kill you due to system shock. My reason for asking is that my campaign is going to feature lots of short range travel between star systems in a cluster, and occasionally back to the Seegson station in the area for fuel and halfway decent food (and whoring). If anyone has run the game in campaign mode, does it bog the game down by having people hypersleep for a few days constantly in travel?I was considering taking a page from the Expanse, and saying that short range FTL travel (less then a couple ly's), you don't have to hyersleep, but you do have to be relatively inert (like strapped into a seat), and juiced with drugs to stop your body from getting fucked by G-Forces and etc
Okay- unironically what are your opinions on Catgirls? Is there a right way to do them? A wrong way?
>>73617143>It usually works in medieval fantasies or older, because there wasn't that much institutional racism back in the daysWhat the fuck did i just read
>>73633741>genuinely wonder what it is that people want for "proof" or whateverThe point is that proof is impossible to provide. Anything anyone posts can be edited to make it say whatever you want. No one can provide proof of anything. Everything can be a lie, which means everything *is* a lie, especially if it disagrees with your position on a topic.
Do catgirls have 1 or 2 sets of ears? Are there cat ears but also human ears under their hair or just cat ears and smooth skin where human ears should be?
>>73621385Eh, trannies have a sexual desire for eachother. So they probably tink about eachother alot. I'm only disgusted when I find them in my porn, and when I hear them talking about sex. Happens more often than straight people.
>>73653094Damn it! I need to stop derailing this thread!I like the symbolism in catgirls, both the luck and playful nature are neat. But overplay it and it becomes bad. Trying to avoid the "Yeah, i get it, it's a cat" thing is important. It needs to be a character with its own personality.
How many people would a castle like pic related hold on a normal day, ie when nobody is besieging it and there's no festival going on inside?
>>73651212>along with a 50-ish infantryImagine feeding 50 guys every day to do nothing for months even years on endNah, it'd probably be about 12 guys total, no cavalry because stabling the horses would be a pain in the ass
>>73652379Being assigned to guard this place would be a punishment
>>73652379>Imagine feeding 50 guys every day to do nothing for months even years on endI've lived near a trailer park before, the McDonald's handled it well.
>>73652418But how long could mcdonalds hold out in a siege?
>>73651194>hundreds might be an exaggerationNigga, let me give you a big, pointy tip:The concept of "minimum comfortable space to live in" is relatively modern invention. Consider this: pic related is a home for 12-16 people. It only has two rooms (one of those with a kitchen) and a hall between them - the area under the roof is a storage. From modern perspective, it's a comfortable house for a family of 5 and a cramped shithole for 8. It was considered a high luxury of a well-off freeman (basically a noble in everything, but the title itself) when it was build in late 18th century.
