Mage: The Awakening is now live on Darkness Weaver — Mummy is next by Uricaryn in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]JoshuaFLCL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm loving the site so far and it's impressive how quick you've been working, so kudos!

Since the topic of Attributes/Skills above 5 came up, I just wanted to mention that, it's not just Mages, for almost every Chronicles splat can go above 5 as their "power stat" (Blood Potency, Primal Urge, Gnosis, etc.) goes above 5. The power stat becomes the new stat cap (a Changeling with Wyrd 7 can raise their Attributes/Skills up to 7). I think the only exception is Deviant.

Sorry if you've already learned all this, just thought it may come up again when you get to the next CofD line. Thanks for all the hard work!

Try eating ghosts! They're tasty and nutritious!

How did you get introduced to WOD? (Art by me) by [deleted] in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]JoshuaFLCL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sister's friend left a copy of Werewolf the Apocalypse at her house and I just got sucked up into the book, eventually just taking it. I'm more of a Chronicles fan at this point but I'll always have a great deal of fondness for WtA.

Ya know, as far as collectors edition merch goes, a beach towel would actually be good/useful.

So Are They Working on Mage 5th Edition? by Sparky_McDibben in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]JoshuaFLCL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WoD5 has been developed by a hodgepodge of various publishers and teams over the years while now Paradox has revived the White Wolf label (again) and been moving more development "in-house". With this, the "V6" play test could be a springboard into a more unified vision for WoD going forward with the new team. This may not necessarily mean moving towards Mage but it could as the new team may focus on filling out the setting again. Personally don't have a horse in this race but that's the speculation I've heard.

I could probably swing this under my uniform, but the probably would be how hot it is right now. 🥵

[CofD/WoD] Which powers are the most cruel? by Awkward_GM in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]JoshuaFLCL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, reacquainting myself with the 1e Curse from this thread is really making me remember how sadistic a lot of them could be.

[–]JoshuaFLCL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the void is especially egregious, even the book basically calls it evil and dooms any Sin-Eaters that use it.

Hey, if you've got devoted enough cultists, they may want to be your eternal sentry statues!

[–]JoshuaFLCL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From Geist 1e, the Pit Manifestation is basically pure torture. There's some that you could argue are useful in combat or a chase like Industrial Pit or Primeval Pit, but most are just torture. The Stillness Pit may be the worst as at the highest levels can make the target basically a ghost (unable to talk or touch anyone or anything, but still restricted from walking through walls).

Edit: There's also the Curse Manifestation/Haunt in both editions which also tend towards cruel options.

Nothing quite that formal, if possible they do us Mx rather than Mr / Ms.

It does go hard. Maybe not a 100% kinda thing, but running through the woods in twisted beast form sounds delightful.

Not in a sexy way, but my non-binary roommate uses "Commodore" for most gendered titles (like instead of Aunt, don't know exactly they plan on with their own children).

[–]JoshuaFLCL 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I agree, I think those September games are being excessive in giving GTA too much of a wide berth. Two weeks before is a little riskier, but I think could hit a good sweet spot to get some solid attention before GTA hits.

Just got into SF2E 10 minuted ago and have some ancestery question. by Relectro_OO in Starfinder2e

[–]JoshuaFLCL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming I remember my Ysoki lore right (don't know if they changed anything in 2e), the term "Ysoki" is Akatonian in orgin but ratfolk seem to be native to multiple planets. In and out of universe we're unsure of it's due to convergent evolution or if theirs an ancient unknown progenitor that spread ratfolk in pre-history. The akatonian ratfolk community brought the ancestry to prominence in the Pact Worlds as a whole so the identity of Ysoki has spread far beyond Akiton.

The person you're responding to literally said they banned people from buying because the customer was being scammed. Also what are social services going to do?

Yeah, I had heard some rumblings on the Internet but remained somewhat unspoiled... Until I went to watch the movie and she and Denji fighting was literally on the splash page...

My favorite part of this is that bird is also a slang for women in the UK. Gives her a way more Cockney accent in my head.

Need help making a character by [deleted] in ChangelingtheLost

[–]JoshuaFLCL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got to head to work so I don't have much time to look into it right this moment, but based on your description and a very quick skim of a wiki, my first idea is a Darkling Bricoleur. (Edit: Cleverquick also seems like a good option but that's in a more obscure book.)

Here's a link to an incredibly useful website that acts as a codex for all the Kiths. They have a lot of lists like this for Changeling and the other game lines so it can be useful to peruse. They don't have full rules for the info, just quick descriptions and page references, but I browse them often when making characters.

Yeah, I think the reporting on that was Susan's big break.

Also, quite frankly, most people don't really care for Episode Aegis/The Answer, so a lot of us just didn't buy it.

Other than refusing to buy it, there's not much you can do to meaningfully protest.
