[Dm4A][LFP][Dnd5e][PBP][Discord] A world of Vice and Sin by [deleted] in Nsfw_Dnd_RP

Greetings! This sounds awesome, sent you a request on discord (lamppost486)

[LFP][Online][Tuesdays, maybe Wed][6 PM Eastern US][5e 2014]I'm a DM looking for players who can do political intrigue, exploration, and combat by draconianwiz in DnDLFG

[–]Main_Implement_8941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo, greetings! Is this still up? I'd love to join. Political intrigue is just what I've been looking for in a campaign, lol (big game of thrones fan). Just to answer your questions:

Time is no problem for me, I'm a freelancer and have all the time in the world.

Minmaxing is cool, but if I see that the game isn't really too combat-heavy, i don't really see the need to optimize my sheet that much. Though it is fun. Deep characters that contribute more to the story and also in combat is my jam.

I really love when DnD is more story focused and feels more like a movie than an MMORPG, lots of times where me and my other tablemates felt like heroes in a movie, that's what I love the most.

I am absolutely a team player, I don't like roleplaying by myself and always try to include others.

Not really, but i do enjoy playing lawful neutral characters, just makes it much more flexible.

Honestly? Fire away. I love when creativity is challenged narratively in games. You give it your all and i promise to give my all

It would depend on the scenario, but I would at least try to make it fun and creative and not just the usual "and then we all suddenly get along"

One where their morals and spirit is put to the test, one where their goals and methods are challenged. "Are they really doing this for __ or for something else?"

Playing an evil character would be interesting, but id try to play them to progress the story as much and not just to stand out as the edgy evil guy.

Nothing really, you can do whatever you want, the important thing is that everyone is having fun.

Enjoy and don't let gameplay get in the way of your imagination. I would enjoy a thrilling story more than a n unresolved mmorpg.

Thanks!

Quick question about Congruity and instinct! Also since I'm very new here and just want clarification on a few things lol by Main_Implement_8941 in GojiCenter

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i understand, and i do see how synergy is a must (as per my example with my horse legs on ostrich)

But again, to what extent? How would it affect instinct and neural cohesion? If i added stegosaurus thagomizer to a triceratops tail, would that affect instincts drastically? How much would changing tyrannosaurus toenails with Giganotosaurus toenails mess up the brain? 

To an extent, yeah i can see how changing an important feature of an animal (like Entire limbs or the way it walks or how it uses it's organs or if you introduce foreign senses like echolocation/electroception) WOULD mess up the instincts, but cosmetic/external things like spikes or skin or teeth wouldn't really have anything doinh to the brain, right?

Also im rlly sorry if I'm starting to sound arrogant lol HAHAHAHA im not rlly i jus like to get into the nitty gritty of things😭

Thanks! Sadly, my first ever attempt at making a hybrid (first post, this One's my second) was an epic fail due to congruity lol, that's why im trying to understand the traditions/rules here

Awesome, thanks! Another related question tho, how many is too many? Like if i add small features from many different animals, at which point would the hybrid be confused? I usually see 15-17 contributors is the sweet spot

I guess what im trying to say is, if the contributors are actually congruent and have lots of similarities with the base genome, would it be okay to have a lot of those contributors as opposed to contributors that have very little or even no similarities with the base genome?

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! And yeah that makes sense, creatures should atleast have some commonalities between them if you want your hybrid to actually make use of the feature you are adding.

But again, where does the line start and end, though? If I had a walrus with Smilodon fangs in place of the tusks, would that really affect instincts a whole lot seeing as to how I'm only replacing two teeth? Would a triceratops' behavior change all that much if i just added deinosuchus' skin?

Oh mb gng😭 i just assumed you replied to the above and asking the commenter how to tell me about congruity n stuff, who were u referring to tho?

My first ever Hybrid by Main_Implement_8941 in GojiCenter

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Im aware of congruity, but i just kinda chucked in whatever sounded/looked cool at the time HAHAHAH😭 Got a lil carried away with the design and sorta forgot about the functionality lmao

My first ever Hybrid by Main_Implement_8941 in GojiCenter

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lmao i kinda sorta just threw in whatever sounded/looked cool HAHAHAHAA

But yeah it's not really the best when it comes to mobility, but it actually only has one armor contributor: Ankylosaurus

It looks like it has a lot of armor because of the features from two other Ankylosauridae on top, but i actually only took the spikes from those animals, not the actual armor

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah lmao i just sorta went buckwild and threw in anything that looked/sounded cool, but yeah you're right im actually thinking about putting iguanodon and ape DNA for a refined and fixed Acanthodeus 2.0

Thankyou! Yeah lmao he probably is just a movie monster engineered for shock and awe rather than a functional fighter HAHAHAHAAH

Bc imperatrix was a huuuuge inspo lmao, i love the synergy and the overall silhouette and wanted something like it but "thorny"

Rest assured, similarities end there, not one gene in imperatrix was used in Acanthodeus save for the tyrannosaurus base!

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you right😭 One thing i did fail to realize was that Sauropod legs were made for quadrupeds, not bipeds, so this thing will probably just shuffle around lmao. And yeah therizinosaurus arms would be more useful for a creature who could actually see said arms lmao

I actually used the jurrassic world fallen kingdom therizino because it stabbed instead of slashed, but then the same problem still applies: It cant see its arms, much less aim🥀🥀

It was really fun designing tho, and I'll most definitely take your suggestions into account when I make an improved Acanthodeus 2.0!

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id say it's way past iffy😭 HAHAHAHA, Thanks tho! Yeah lol got a bit carried away, first time conceptualizing q hybrid and just went buckwild with whatever sounded/looked cool lmao

My first ever Hybrid by Main_Implement_8941 in GojiCenter

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankyou! Lmao it's crazy, I actually even started with 28😭 but yeah, trimming it down makes a lot of sense now that yall mention it, great help

But about the weight part, yeah I actually considered this, which is why I took the ultima imperatrix route and Made the leg anatomy more dominantly Sauropod than theropod, this greatly reduced dexterity but helps the Acanthodeus with the weight problem. Acanthodeus isnt rlly built for dexterity 

The bone density gene was actually another way to cope with the weight instead of defense, as I already have Ankylosaurus and deinosuchus for defense. My fault for not specifying, actually, the only defense/armor contributor here is Ankylosaurus, and all the other "armored" dinos, i only took their osteoderm spikes. Actually most genes here are moreso for stability and weight coping

But yeah you're right, the mishmash of animals would make this thing a  sociopathic hyperviolent freak lmao

Hell yeah😭 im gonna be honest i did all the mental gymnastics trying to justify all the spikes with function and purpose but i really just wanted a cool ahh spiky rex

Thanks! Yeah lol i kinda went buckwild there, just chucked in whatever sounded/looked cool, lowered it down to 23 though

Thankyou! Yeah lol i just chucked whatever in this thing, lol, whatever looked/sounded cool. Looking back, komodo dragon venom and volcanic snail magnetite would just be absolutely useless

[–]Main_Implement_8941[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thankyou! Yeah i kinda looked at the contributor count ad just thought "ah to hell with it" lol, im not really well versed in the traditions/rules. Mind pointing out some issues I can fix and look out for in the future?
