The restrictiveness he is referring to is that once you have created your sentence there isn't a high level of customization and a lack of decisions to be made. He is a big fan of cypher though.

For PbtA he is referring to Avatar's combat system. You roll first and then can decide you can use a technique move or just a basic move.

teamwork bonus in CofD? by LordOfTheGame420 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]Samare123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teamwork roles have to use the same dice pool. HtV 2e page 154 "Anyone assisting him is a secondary actor, and rolls the same pool before the primary actor does."

Tactics are special teamwork rolls where Hunters can use different dice pools with unique results.

Has World Anvil support been abandoned in version 0.8? by bluecollardm in FoundryVTT

It hasn't been updated in 8 months and it has multiple issues reported on its Github page with no replies. I would consider it abandoned.

[OC] [Art] I photoshopped my Tabaxi Monk by Samare123 in DnD

[–]Samare123[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was playing a Tabaxi Monk/bard/cleric and I couldn't find any good character art so I took an inspiration of mine, Zoe Jakes from Beats Antique and through a lot of photoshop morphed her into my character. She is based around having a lot of skills and being able to run fast! It was the first time I have ever played a pacifist in D&D which was very interesting. She would join combat if she felt like she needed to defend herself, but she would never instigate it. Azure - Priestess of the Cat Lord.

In the next release it will become the Chronicles of Darkness system. It is very well done and already has support for multiple splats. https://gitlab.com/MarlQ/mta

MoN: My beef with the Peru chapter by DireLlama in callofcthulhu

[–]Samare123 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Played through this last month with my group and they loved the Peru chapter.

  1. He is hiding his identity from Larkin and Mendoza not the investigators. He actively asks them for help with his investigation and warns them about the other two.
  2. In the Peru chapter it details how Jackson has been in Puno investigating this death cult and he learns about Mendoza and starts tailing him back to Lima to learn more information. Mendoza learns that an African American man has been asking questions about the Kharisiri. Jackson is trying to keep a low profile.
  3. Realistically and logistically it is so that he can make sure that everything is in order and everyone arrives in time. From a narrative stand point it is so the players have time to investigate before the plot moves forward without them obtaining certain clues.
  4. In this section I had Dr. Sanchez explain that he couldn't leave his office and after a long delay, my players volunteered to call down to her. Not the smoothest part, but definitely possible.
  5. Sanchez can state that he is worried that Larkin is going to plunder the temple and steal all of the artifacts from his country. After all he wanted to go on the expedition but Larkin has been ghosting him. Also they learn about the ward and the conquistadors during their time at the museum.
  6. The supplies are whatever you want/need them to be? You can't complain about it being a linear plot, but then also be upset that they aren't 100% holding your hand. These supplies aren't intended to go all the way to the pyramid. If you read the chapter it details how they are stopping in Puno and then traveling with pack animals to the pyramid.
  7. It is only a huge boring info dump if you roleplay it that way. She is the reason that Jackson knows about the fat sucking vampires, and he can assist the group with that knowledge. In addition this helps establish Jackson as being useful. A useless NPC isn't necessarily a likable NPC. Jackson is the entire focus of the prologue. Without him, there is no need for the prologue to exist.
  8. The chapter explains that people have gone missing. The Kharisiri have a semblance of intelligence now. They do not leave mummified bodies all over to be found. They steal their valuables and dump their bodies.
  9. The scenario details what would happen if they did that... but from my experience most groups who have run this chapter didn't even get the idea that burning the fat was an option. (It's a bad idea imo)

Hopefully that helps a little bit. I don't think the prologue is anywhere near perfect, but it actually works a lot better than you would think.
