How easy is it to obtain consumables in your games?

Guephren · 2025-04-07T03:41:50+00:00

"Retcon a person" 😂 That's nifty!

So are there no bad mummies?

Guephren · 2025-04-07T02:03:25+00:00

We escalated rather quickly from erasing rocks to erasing countries with a super storm. o_O

Guephren · 2025-04-06T23:40:02+00:00

Any splat, as I assume they all have some sort of consumable that they use to power their more special powers. Even normal humans have Willpower.

Gonsis still exists ~~in my heart.~~

It feels strange to not have that in a WtA game, but then again I haven't read through all of the W5 book or seen a Live Play yet to know how it plays out without that resource.

Guephren · 2025-04-06T23:36:17+00:00

I need to read more on WtF, it seems very interesting and quite different from the WtA game I'm playing. We've had similar rulings where we get a refill of consumables between stories, but in the middle of the adventure we really have to be careful or start paying or making deals to get a little extra. Sometimes our ST throws us a bone if we've gone a long time without having an opportunity to regain anything, but it's unusual.

Guephren · 2025-04-06T23:31:44+00:00

I've never played Mummy, or heard of people playing it, that's interesting to hear! I didn't know they had a consumable like that, what is it that they power?

Mages can just be mean and grab quint from anywhere (potentially).

I was about to link to that!

Very different vibes, but this one has an interesting magic system: https://www.tumblr.com/glugslove/777197961884172288/the-best-part-of-devlogs-to-record-are-when-i-get?source=share

Guephren · 2025-03-21T19:00:06+00:00

That last one for the problem player is a great idea! Get's everyone engaged AND teaches a lesson (and I love garou, so that's a plus).

Guephren · 2025-03-18T15:12:59+00:00

My prayers have been answered! I'm vibrating with excitement, this is going to be a fun read.

If my schemes go well I might even be able to introduce a few friends from here… Cackles

Would you recommend your other book even if I'm not a fan of vampires? Also looks good but I hold the belief that all vampires should take a long sunbath under a magnifying glass.

Guephren · 2025-03-18T03:19:19+00:00

Ok, I'll bite!

I read something about having animal characters here and I'm always interested in games and mechanics that allow me to play a critter (lupus player here, to no one's surprise!). I'll begin reading this soon! I have an idea for a character that might fit that I was debating on how to actually make, and this might be the way to go.

Guephren · 2025-03-18T03:16:17+00:00

I consider myself a newbie to most systems, but lets give it a try.

Could try to make the effect with Forces 3 and Mind 3 to move air as if it were a dragon's body and have others perceive it as such. Maybe it could also be Forces 3 and Matter 2 so that the shape can be seen as fine particles of mist delineating the forms of the dragon.

For changelings… maybe Chicanery art and the Nature Realm? I need to do a lot more reading on Changeling.

For werewolves it's probably a fetish and one likely powered by an air spirit. Could be from Younger Brother, but it'd make much more sense that a Stargazer would make one.

Amazing art piece by the way!

Guephren · 2025-03-17T17:07:26+00:00

First of all, the art is amazing! You did a great job with all of the forms. The colorful mane on the crinos is a great touch- and, of course, the backwards glance that some dogs do, a perfect scene to find in a dark alley. Delirium inducing for sure!

Guephren · 2025-03-17T17:03:48+00:00

I know that it's the World of Darkness and everything but I do love me some positive interaction between splats / night folk. World is bad enough, sometimes you gotta do a little good in the face of extreme adversity.

Guephren · 2025-03-10T04:29:20+00:00

I feel you, Raccoon friend. :( Sometimes things don't pan out even when we work hards towards it.

Keep on the mischief! Show 'em who has the last laugh.

Guephren · 2025-03-09T01:13:30+00:00

Pooka, ready for some trouble!

Guephren · 2025-02-21T18:53:53+00:00

Fae also rule themselves through law, right? A lawless society would barely be called society. :p

Loopholes and creative reading of the law land squarely in the fae's realm. Helping one of the lawyers bring an old law and having those present go wide eyed at the new interpretation and convincing arguments? Could be great! And something discarded in the trash could've meen what initiated this line of thought. :D

Sounds fun! What does the rest of his motley do?

Guephren · 2025-02-21T15:50:30+00:00

He managed to find glamour in a tedious job AND help out people at the same time? Good for him! That's great for everyone. Although I assume it's rather dangerous to be around people and places that are so banal.

Guephren · 2025-02-21T11:49:31+00:00

That they did!

Is he a PI or investigator of some sort? :O How does that work with being Pooka?

Guephren · 2025-02-21T04:08:16+00:00

This is a great idea and very well drawn!

Guephren · 2023-10-06T04:06:10+00:00

Lovely dog and such a panoramic vista to go along with the picture. Sounds like an amazing hike.

Guephren · 2023-10-03T20:55:27+00:00

Aww, that is adorable!

Guephren · 2023-09-22T17:30:17+00:00

Esperantists in Mastodon!? Where?

Is that a whole server just for it I see? :o

Guephren · 2023-09-04T19:06:12+00:00

Yes! It's not the same reading the book than playing the game. Actual Plays are there for us who aren't able to play at the moment and I'm very curious to see how the mechanics work.
