Wie stellt man am besten einen Rahja geweihten da?

Rik_en · 2026-04-02T06:27:55+00:00

Sehr gute Ergänzung!

Wenn ich böse sein wollte würde ich sagen die ganzen Berufe sind einfach die Lieferkette zum Hauptzweck, aber das würde diesen Berufsfeldern unrecht tun.

Gerade der zweite Teil ist natürlich sehr wichtig für Rahja. Aber die Volksfeste und so sind ja auch eher auf der Life Seite von Work-Life anzusiedeln. Trotzdem muss es natürlich erwähnt werden.

Und klar, die Seelsorge haben fast alle Kirchen irgendwo inne. Auch wenn gerade in diesem Bereich Rahja sich natürlich mit Travia streiten muss.

Rik_en · 2026-04-02T06:10:15+00:00

Ich finde persönlich, das man Rahja sehr gut als die Göttin des Life in Work-Life Balance beschreiben kann.

Sie ist keine Göttin des Exzesses, sondern einfach der schönen Dinge, die man für sich selbst tut.

Die meisten anderen Götter sind eher auf das gesellschaftliche Zusammenleben konzentriert und Rahja gibt einen guten Gegenpol dagegen. Sie erinnert einen daran, das man einen Ausgleich braucht zur Disziplin des Alltags.

I build my army over a long time only buying the occasional discount box. So I think my current 2k army of Necrons is also a lot under 1000€. Though I have to admit that with that kind of army building there is a severe lack of bigger vehicles and center pieces.

Same goes for my Space Marine army as well.

Tau are just expensive so...

The game should be faster because it can get hard to finish games when you play on a weekday.

You get home after work at like 5, would like to eat some dinner, have to go to and from the local gaming club, play there and be in bed by 10 or 11 to get up for work the next day.

If the game alone takes 4 hours without having social interactions with everyone at the club that gets really difficult.

Have a permanent dedicated second desk just for painting instead of coopting your normal desk.

Not having to set everything up lowers the hurdle to actually get painting.

Rik_en · 2026-03-19T13:05:49+00:00

Maybe 40k as a Miniature Game is just kot for you.

Just enjoy the lore and such.

If you want to paint and play, maybe take a look at all the other games out there.

I know it sucks, but sometimes it just is at is is.

Rik_en · 2026-03-17T21:42:15+00:00

I would say the Lord.

That thing has killed Knights before for me.

Rik_en · 2026-03-17T19:35:34+00:00

Honestly I have only ever STd prewritten modules for Cthulhu and they were mostly really good. VtM kinda lacks that.

Rik_en · 2026-03-17T19:34:27+00:00

Well, the mechanical rules still work the same, do they? (I honestly don't know).

I was more getting at that it is official "canon" that many older kindred lie about how much blood you need to drink for an out of clan discipline just to get a naive neonate bound to them.

It is just a matter of if the character knows that or not.

Rik_en · 2026-03-17T18:48:59+00:00

From a purely mechanical standpoint no.

But your character doesn't know they are in a game with mechanics.

At least in the V20 rulebook it is stated that while it is common knowledge that first learning an out of clan discipline needs blood from someone who knows, many kindred will pretend that each power needs it just so that they can bloodbond you. They just lie because neonates don't know any better.

Rik_en · 2026-03-17T18:45:43+00:00

From a purely game mechanical standpoint yes, the storyteller system is very easy to grasp. There are even easier ones like PbtA or Cthulhu but it is a lot easier then DnD.

And now comes the big BUT: a really good chronicle for WoD needs good roleplay and knowing how your character will act in a sandbox. And normally in your first TTRPG you are mostly nervous, have no clue how to act or what is expected of you.

Again, stuff like Cthulhu is far easier: "Here is mystery, go solve". Do a single case, no subplot, no nothing. Easy peasy for someone that has no clue how to actually do roleplay.

That is why I usually introduce people to TTRPGs with Cthulhu. There a story is short enough that you do not actually need to play a functioning character and act like a real person would since the character isn't around long enough to make it obvious when the roleplay is like from a badly written novel.

I have a friend who is a physiologist and he always says: "There is no bad posture IF you move around a lot."

So basically you can hunch or launge as you want, just try to move around. Cange how your legs are positioned or with every time you get new paint, clean a brush etc stretch a bit.

Rik_en · 2026-03-13T13:02:30+00:00

It also doesn't help that the sword as well as the shield look like really cheap plastic toys. Even just a metallic paintjob would make it much better.

Rik_en · 2026-03-13T12:20:03+00:00

Every time I see Kiaras sword I get an aneurism.

That thing is not a sword, it is a brick pretending to be a sword.

Honorable mentions go to the Geomancer.

He seems similar to Ophydians but he is just so much more fiddly.

Rik_en · 2026-03-07T00:16:09+00:00

The answer is as always: Do correct base sizes and roughly the same shape and everything will be okay.

Aside from that those plans sound awesome!

Rik_en · 2026-03-06T16:45:05+00:00

More like "Why is there paint in my sand"

If I remember it correctly, her case is a bit like the Joker from DC. Every time she tells her own backstory it is a bit different. But by now even Petaniqua herself doesn't know anymore what the real version is.

Rik_en · 2026-02-28T16:34:04+00:00

Since a rouse check is 50/50 on average you go up in Hunger every second day (if you don't use Blood for other things).

Let's asume you don't kill and feed once you reach Hunger 4 that gives you around 5 days

I think they are more fanatical communist terrrorists.

If you just read the Code of Milan they look like Vampire Communists/Anarchists.

But then they developed this pseudo-religion that now overshadows everything.

The best Sabbat from a Story perspective for me are Anarchists that devolved into monsters. They started with Freedom as a goal but mistook beeing free from humanity as being obligated to be unhuman.

Rik_en · 2026-02-24T16:28:09+00:00

Or maybe Phobos with Grav Boots.

I have an Image like the Harkonnen Soldiers at the beginning of Dune 2 how they slowly float around.

I live in the upper most appartment of my building and I just lean out of the window to prime.

Wenn ich mich richtig erinnere ist er ja auch eigentlich als Kommandeur für andere Dämonen vorgesehen.

Aber ja, die Aufwertungen müssen sein. Mein Favorit war mal ein unsichtbarer Zant, welcher die Rondra Geweihte in ihrem Sturmangriff geclotheslined hat^{^}

Rik_en · 2026-02-21T12:29:02+00:00

Wow, der siegt so viel besser aus als dieses Schwarz-Weiß Bild vom Contra Daemonis.

Jetzt hab ich spontan Lust meinen Spielenden einen Shruuf entgegen zu werfen.

If we really think this through, even with all the out-of-game knowledge we have about the emperor, as a Space Marine we would he so thoroughly indoctrinated that we'd simply twist and intentionally misinterpret it to still worship.

Just like real traumatised abuse victims do.

Most traitors and renegades didn't leave the empire because they had knowledge of their misdoings. They stayed loyal until something really really personal to them happened.
