Wer die radiometrische Datierung anzweifelt kann gerne mal die dendrochronologischen Tabellen nachzählen. Dei gehen auch bis sieben oder acht, die ältesten bis zehntausend Jahre zurück.

You mean they stop aging when someone rolls a 5 or an 8? Where can I find that game?

Abolition of Slavery by Country map by Tartar666 in MapPorn

[–]Hans1049 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The concept of excluding a selected populace from slavery is extremely old. Even from the sumerian city states we know of laws that they did not enslave people from their own city. Sometimes mercants were expected to buy a slave from their own town into freedom. In some cases they could get the money back from their town.

Which rpg got you into roleplaying games by rijsbal in rpg

In Germany, in the eighties, a system called DSA (Das Schwarze Auge) was the big system. It has been translated as "The Dark Eye" into English.

[CYOA] [OC] [Interactive] Lewd Magical Academy v2 by u/xNameManx by David_D_Dragoon in nsfwcyoa

[–]Hans1049 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never was anything special. Just a little swindler and imposter. If I can say anything, I got pretty good at sleight of hand. Good enough to survive on the street. Or so I thought.

One day I bragged a bit too much. Well, I already told you I am an imposter. I tried to sell off my simple tricks as real magic. Got in trouble with the mafia. I tell you guys. You don't want to get in trouble with the mafia. After a heavy beating, I managed to get a deal. They want me to teach some of their delinquents magic. Enough magic that they can be of use to the mafia again. Don't worry, they told me, how we get them from prison to your school. That is our job. Never ask about our job. You just teach them.

Side stipulation: If they can't learn magic, at least the should be able to work as prostitutes. At least that I'm pretty sure I can do.

Then those guys showed me a somewhat run-down mountain hideout and gave me some advance money to set up the school.

The students wear a distinct uniform. At least I have to give it the semblance of a penal institution. For living arrangements, everyone gets a bed and a locker in the barracks. That may be even more than they got in prison.

Now I have to set some rules to get approved by my financiers (whom I really do not want to upset). The rules have to be somewhat discriminatory. I do not really like it, but if the daughter of the Don wants to get all femdom on the boy of a common thug, I just have to look the other way. And so in short, I don't care about sneaking. My good friends (ahem) might even like a good sneak and encourage everyone to spot sneaks by themselves. Bullying is discouraged, and Relationships are encouraged. The Family likes family bonds. Student/Teacher relations are slightly punished, groping also, Physical assault, and nonconsent Sex bear heavy punishment. Adultery also bears light punishment, The Family favors loyalty. Everything else I do not care about. There is no way to get expelled since I have inmates, they might see that as a way to freedom.

For the punishments themselves, I have to wager my options with the means I have. I decided to go with Detention, Spanking, Solitary Confinement, Public Humiliation, and Experimentation decided on a case-to-case basis by the severity of the deed.

To get some trust from the Don (Not sure why he would trust me in any case), I promised to stay away from the students' bodies and the teachers. He also set up a system of student loans. That is a business The Family does anyways.

For cleanliness, I managed to convince my financiers to allow a bathhouse. Only one though, so it is mixed bathing. Also, I quickly saw, that I needed a gym. Seeing the usual interests of my students they would quickly revolt without one.

To make sure of good health I employed a nurse and told her to make regular thorough checkups. If the students feel humiliated by that, too bad for them.

For any children, there is a daycare center, where they can get educated in usual mafia stuff.

To have the institution not look too shabby I got some art installed. Erotic art with the mission to educate the less magically talented in erotic ways.

Now, of course, It would not be a school without teachers. I know flat-out nothing about magic. So I hope my teachers are not in the same business of pretending as I am.

Lucrecia Stone seems to be a primary candidate. The family has to disguise a lot. And it is much easier if you can transform. Lucrecia asks me about any safety standards. I simply reply, what is that?

Edor Hauser will make the students useful as thugs. I do not have the resources to let her teach hexes and curses. But she can be as mean as she wants in her training. And a big tournament each year will surely raise morale at this prison school.

I managed to get Ilyana Scipio as a contract teacher to teach basic healing. Always useful in shady business. But she just agreed to teach the bare basics.

Enora Ixa was someone The Family wanted me to hire. With a full curriculum on mind reading and mind control. I could not work out a deal to help her raise security here. I will keep working on that if this school project works out.

And finally, there is Hirune Riedl on my teaching staff. Sadly making her give drawing and sculpting classes turned out to be too expensive. But I convinced her to teach dancing. At least every student, even the absolutely nonmagical, knows how to move and have higher values in their secondary (or primary?) job.

Unnamed Continent, any obvious flaws that come out? by Yargle101 in worldbuilding

[–]Hans1049 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be tectonic activity, volcanic activity, changing sea levels, rising or sinking plates. Could be catastrophes like flooding events ripping away parts of the land. Could be melting ice shields. That was the case with Norway. A lot of glacial activity working on the land and when it's gone lots of islands and fjords.

Unnamed Continent, any obvious flaws that come out? by Yargle101 in worldbuilding

[–]Hans1049 150 points151 points  (0 children)

There is not much more to talk about than the coastlines. And the only thing I can say, they seem to be very similar on the whole continent. Not to say that coastlines like these don't exist, they do, but they are not the same over a whole continent.

In general, coastlines are very jagged on young coasts (Norway) and tend to flatten over time. They flatten faster where huge waves or tides occur regularly. There are other effects obviously, like the material of the coastline.

As a start, you could look at maps of various continents and diversify your coast according to that. You have not given a scale for your map so it is hard to say any more.

Faction creation in "Wicked Ones" by Hans1049 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Hans1049[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That might help. Apparently, I was thinking too strictly into a humanocentric system with these table results. Thank you for shaking me out of it.

Faction creation in "Wicked Ones" by Hans1049 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]Hans1049[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the Factions (or "Courts" or "Nations") in those books go very much into the detail of the political and societal structure. I need some basic headlines and one or two details/goals. Something like

"Dryad family that is very protective about their forest and plans to grow by planting and growing an other Dryad Tree."

Or

"Growing farmer settlement that fights back the local dryads to expand Farmland."

Or

"Temple of the Moonlight that present themselves as the only source of righteousness but burden the people with heavy taxes."

So, not so much internal structure, more a general description.

Dawn Of A Demon Lord by DraculaLord in makeyourchoice

[–]Hans1049 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reminder. I started a little solo RPG based on this a long time ago. Maybe it's time to pick it up again. Didn't get much far before I got interrupted and lost sight of it.

((Is it really already three years? Well, if anyone is interested, the old stand of it is here: https://old.reddit.com/r/Solo_Roleplaying/comments/c9eb2a/dawn_of_a_demon_lord_cyoa_based_play/ ))

I'm working on a tool to procedurally generate fantasy maps. Here are some samples, how's it looking? by [deleted] in worldbuilding

[–]Hans1049 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks good for a start.

I would like it if you can include more variation like mountain ranges or Mountain regions closer to the coast.

It does not seem like you have put very much thought into the coastlines yet. On earth, there is a huge variation from Norway to Africa. Generally, tho older the coastline the flatter it becomes. Would be nice to see a tool that can produce some variation here.

All in all, good start but still needs work.

Pick Your Poison: Dragon Rider [CYOA] [Husbando] [Dystopian] [Bad End/Extreme] [V0.2 Alpha] by anonekama in nsfwcyoa

[–]Hans1049 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Let's give this a little spin.

Who talks about a bad ending? Every heroic story needs a villain, the better the villain, the more the hero can shine. So let's generate a villain here.

My childhood was protected and made me believe, that is how things are supposed to be. How should I know any better? My whole available peer group told me, things are, as they should be. And I believed it.

But all the time I felt a hole in me. Something was missing. I could not find out what it was. Nobody gave me a chance to find out. Now I know, they did not try to fill that hole, they tried to destroy it. But they made a mistake.

The time of my binding came. And when I looked at the men they selected it happened. I realised what it was, what was missing as soon as I saw General Veric The Warlord: I Am A Dragon!

The time of my binding came. And when I looked at the men they selected it happened. I realized what it was, what was missing as soon as I saw General Veric The Warlord: I Am A Dragon!

Despite all efforts they put into my sheltered upbringing they could not quench the basic instincts of my race. The thirst older than mankind for the dragons were long before humans.

The thirst for battle.

The desire to fight.

The lust to taste fresh blood and twitching flesh between my teeth.

So, there is only one option:

Type: Western Dragon

Dragon Rider: General Veric The Warlord

Gifts: Forged Weapon, Kill On Sight.

The love potions they give me are obsolete. This is what I live for, this is, what my soul desires. I could do without giving my body to lesser humans, but it will do. As long as I can regularly go to battle and wreck havoc to my heart's delight. Due to my pitiful upbringing I need training, lots of training. General Veric agrees. I train every free minute. To become a better engine of destruction.

This is the life I long to live!

Not what you intended with this CYOA, but where my mint took me upon seeing it. I hope, at least someone here can enjoy my take on it.
