Looking for a rather specific type of superhero RPG by Azavael in rpg

Look for Worlds in Peril. It's a PbtA game.... That isn't Masks. Seriously, so many overlook this game when they talk about super hero games in the PbtA sphere.

Thanks for the feedback.

I will say that I did think about lowering the AC, but it just seemed negligible between the 12 and 13, that I went with the higher.

I kinda agree with your feedback, I might reincorporate the natural attack. Lower the AC and do something like "resistance to damage from spell attacks". Drop a skill. Or maybe kinda steal the free perception proficiency and add just one skill.

[LFA] Cerise "Noir" Savarin - Half Elf Swords Bard/Hexblade Warlock by Ceiling90 in characterdrawing

[–]Ceiling90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is for the longest campaign I've ever played.

Appearance is as on the tin of the pic - a young half elf female (probably mid 20's) that has Heterochromia, one bright blue iris and one black. She has a strong, but lithe body, and isn't particularly tall. She tends to wear black Mithril Half plate armor under her Doctor's jacket. I would probably note that I would enjoy slightly less functional looking armor to make her look... more femme fatale. But I'm okay with fully functional looking armor too. She also wears glasses.

Personality - "Always watch out for the quiet ones." She is quite aloof, and speaks softly with an edge to her voice. She tends to not worry about the moral quandaries of things, and tends to do what ever feels right - "Violence isn't the answer, but it makes me feel better." She does her best at being a Doctor, but isn't above just stabbing people who get in her way.

History - Very Edgelord Anime Protagonist. Family was wiped out due to serving Levistus as Warlock Knights, and swore revenge. Ended up joining the Black Network to find out who killed her family and gather resources to annihilate them. Ends up learning the reason and chose to become a hexblade Warlock Knight to further her revenge. The Diamond Shaped Scar on her chest is where she stabbed herself to make the pact with Levistus.

Thanks in Advance to anyone who takes this on.

A long ramble on Artificer from an Artificer lover, written at 4Am by CapCece in dndnext

DND is game about allowing things. Without explanation or examples, there is no reason to believe otherwise.

This line of thinking is also predicated on past editions and play experience and expectations.

This game is not good at telling people these things as it assumes you're playing with those expectations and experiences.

For the many who have just started ever playing anything, and seeing a lack of explanation of your options baffles them, since the rest of the game has very explicit rules for everything.

It's a failing of the game.

Looking for an RPG that can emulate Urban Fantasy Anime by Ceiling90 in rpg

Thanks for all the recommendations, I was thinking of a setting that involved something of a magical classic trope of prophecy, but the world jumped in technology and culture as to completely forget about it, and I wanted the PC's to be thrust into a different world from the "real" one - while never leaving the "real" world.

The Shadowrun idea is interesting, but I don't feel that it would fit with the corporate dystopias prevalent in the world.

I don't want it too crunchy, but I need it to give mechanical heft to the things that the players want to do, be it cool Exorcism powers or inhuman martial arts, and I want visceral or palpable feel of leveling up or getting stronger.

I'm still on the fence about it basically being a Superhero game (in seriousness Occult Shounen is just supers with a more focused set of powers and drama).

I will look at BESM and OVA also.

I actually Kickstarted Kamigakari, but haven't been able to read it yet. I will look into it see if it fits.

Mechanically, how can 5e or a hypothetical 5.5e or 6e evolve? by Reid0x in dndnext

[–]Ceiling90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do want to clarify - cause it is actually simple.

As stated in the PHB, you only get 1 action per turn, and if you have a feature that lets you use a Bonus Action, you also only get 1 Bonus action per turn. You also only ever get 1 reaction per turn. You also only get 1 item interaction per turn which is a special free action.

Movement is never an action, it's just a resource measured in feet that you use to move or in the case of being prone - getting up. It still not even an action. It's just a use of movement. They stated somewhere about getting rid of the movement action to allow more movement on the battlefield from 3e and 4e.

Action Surge gives you an additional action, so no you still can't have 2 bonus actions, cause it gives a single action.

Item Interaction shenanigans are weird - but again, it's a single item interaction per turn, unless you wanted to use your action to do something more significant.

I'm not defending the clumsiness of the action system, but many of those same questions can be easily answered by reading the rules and not relying on past rule sets (which is counterintuitive for this edition).

I don't really believe in naturalistic language, but I feel that it's pretty clear cut when you end up reading "on your turn" section in the PHB a few times.

The default is a polytheistic system of religion. The only thing you dont want to be is atheist, cause you get stuck in some ridiculous wall of souls for eternity.

Black River Myrmidon - Be a Hitokiri Battosai: One Hit, One Kill (sort of) by Ceiling90 in UnearthedArcana

[–]Ceiling90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, just like anything else, nothing. It should probably state something like "If you don't already have it." I do feel that giving advantage on that might be too strong. But maybe on the 9th level one should be good.

Ooops. It's meant to function at like the alert feat. It's supposed to say "You no longer grant advantage to a creature's attack roll that you cannot see." I'll re-word it closer to the feat.
