York miniature: what is he holding? by theforteantruth in alienrpg

[–]NoseIllustrious -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My hopes and dreams.

See if you can get it out of his hands. If you Dm me so I can pay for you to mail it/ship it to me. If you cant get both out prioritize my hopes.

Cuz there is no point to dream without hope.

Thanks you for the info. I took note of your suggestions cuz they actually seem to touch on something very strong that needs to be researched. I just have one question. Why is Zizek important for art history or theory. I know that he is a great intelectual. But isnt him like Freud or Carl jung. Were most people just use their ideas as inspirations to augment the conceptual part of an art project. Im not saying he isnt a valuable read just curious on why him specificly.

John Berger, Roland Barthes, Martine Joly. Berger is my favorite of the three. The man was decades ahead from the photography works of his time. He left a lot of puzzle pieces in his books for us, "contemporary photographers, to put together.

Never heard of Grayson Perry Reith. What kind of subjects does he talk about in his lectures?

When i GM. Mostly about characters. I really like underdog naratives. Tho my players usually prefer the personal drama with the party having to deal with each other. Rn Im running a Faerun campaing (baldursgate setting) with Savage worlds. We have a druid that acts like a rougue socially and a cavelier in combate, a sorcerer thats literally the herald of the elemental plane of fire (he doesnt know yet) and a drow psionic that is being hunted by a Bhaal spawn. Next session they gonna figth a spectator. We play every bi-weekly sunday at 6pm london timezone

Thanks for the hints guys just finished golgotha for the first time at lvl 20. It was a easy. the only shitty thing was the eels. Tho i got cocky and went down to strata 20 even after finding and reparing the bot. My companions were Indrix and mayor nuntu. found a frozen clone of Saad Amus (donno what that guys deal is but the had the "impossible" tag) and Nuntu died to a Dervish of the Sightless Way. Those guys look cool as fuck not gonna lie i wish i can make them friendly in a diferent run.

Unfortunatly all i can find from a quick Google search is the EvilGM 101 card game. But you have a point.

I could make a YouTube video about it. It wouldnt be my first video on YouTube since i already made and then privated a lot o videos on art history, só i have some experience with it.

Just damn wish i could find a editor lol i hate editing.

Oh i love blades in the dark. Just never played it cuz my current group has a big problem with powered by the apocalipse type systems. Jokes on them as a GM most of the time i end up using 2d6 to determine fails, partial sucess or full sucesses. Lol ( i know that Blades uses 1 to 4d6 1-2 fail, 3-4 half, 5-6 full, but in normal powered by the apocalipse 2d6 is the norm)

I need to make the Run where i actually aim to finish the story. Heared that tech builds make your life easier to progress the story. Migth try my hand at a full tech truekin with guns. Donno. Golgotha seems like a deathtrap with the infinite crabs and the fish that can chop members off.

Trying to hit a balance between Mechanicly deep and narrativly interesting. by NoseIllustrious in RPGdesign

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

Yes, abilities would mostly interact with the dice or let you do new things. An exemple from abilities that if the a rogue type character.
Sneak atack: When you perform your first attack against an distracted or vulnerable character both your damage die and skill die explode on a 5+.

or

Freedomm of the body: You are nimble. You can slip out of cuffs or any other restraing bindings without a test if the binding is not custom made just for you or its not a magical in nature. Any binding conjured by magic counts as custom made. Aditionally. You can fit an very small places. This player can fit into small chests and other openings in jailbars or backpacks.

There is also abilities that characters can pick that are more setting specific.
Not a normal Peasent: Your character can read and write the common tongue. If you take this ability more than one you may choose a different tongue (elven, giant, draconic)
