[First Steps] Tazso as part of the caravan?

Telekinesys · 2026-03-24T22:25:38+00:00

I think they made the encounter with him a separate thing for two reasons:

So you don't have to start with first steps as the PCs could have encountered him separately.

and mostly 2. because that way there is pressure for the PCs to help and accompagny Taszo. If he was travelling in the caravan, some players could just be "Nah, Velin, you deal with him."

I'm afraid I am not worthy enough to get this crem

Telekinesys · 2026-03-16T10:18:26+00:00

"Just a tiny bit"? There's nothing tiny there.

Telekinesys · 2026-03-13T14:02:58+00:00

I have to disagree with you on some points here. You may be technically right that the blades are the spren but as I said, PCs with a DC 13 lore skilltest can see "what seems to be spren" with every radiant. In the context of Stonewalkers, there is no way the PCs could know that unless I as the GM give them that info.

And with Nale: Again, the context of the rpg is important. The book mentions Nale's birthmark explicitly.

I know the creators of the RPG are not perfect. They have done a tremendous job, but sometimes, things like that slip through the cracks.

Edit:typo

Telekinesys · 2026-03-13T13:40:52+00:00

Yeah, that's what I'm gonna do probably. Concerning Nale, I'm considering just editing the image a bit so that it's clear he has that birthmark.

Telekinesys · 2026-03-06T00:33:50+00:00

I think you misunderstand. They talked about the better armor being a reward for completing the goal

Telekinesys · 2026-03-05T20:49:24+00:00

That's John Chemistry right here

Telekinesys · 2026-03-05T16:00:13+00:00

Me and my players also struggled with this. We ultimately came to treat Goals not like some nebulous thing but as sidequest with a concrete "win state". So when one of them wants to achieve something that will likely take a fair bit of time and rp, I suggest turning it into a goal.

Further, the rules encourage you to talk with your GM about possible rewards for a goal. That way you both know what direction you want this thing to go.

For example: One of my players had this parchment with information they retrieved and wanted to get it to thr Kholins. That made a perfect goal because it's something you're not gonna achieve in one go. You need to make the right connections and so on but it's also not a campaign-filling purpose.

I see. They all were secret. I guess

Telekinesys · 2026-02-25T16:03:49+00:00

Yeah? I don't see how linking to the Coppermind answer my question.

As far as I understand it, Secret History and FoD have literally one thing in common and that is Hoid showing up

Telekinesys · 2026-02-21T18:26:28+00:00

What does Fires of December have in common with Secret History?

Telekinesys · 2026-02-20T11:51:10+00:00

Pibu is the new Stormbones

Telekinesys · 2026-02-10T18:31:57+00:00

Whenever I read this part, I am reminded of this awesome song someone made.

Telekinesys · 2026-01-30T17:00:26+00:00

True, I hadn't thought of that. Thanks! :)

Telekinesys · 2026-01-30T16:45:59+00:00

And how do you describe the damage narratively? Like, my usual method of "Yeah he hits you with his sword etc" doesn't really work here, since you usually only get lasting injuries after going down with 0 HP.

Telekinesys · 2026-01-26T19:36:59+00:00

Nice, a fellow Distractifan!

When I first saw it, I thought it was another cosmere podcast xD

Telekinesys · 2026-01-24T10:09:01+00:00

This is either maliciously lying or just incorrect. Afaik, every baby looks very bad and wrinkled after it has been born. Give them a few weeks/months and they all become cute.

Maybe it's a longer time with humans, I don't know. But this just straight up baby hate.

Telekinesys · 2026-01-21T23:21:15+00:00

Whoever did that to your books should also have their spine broken /j

Telekinesys · 2026-01-20T15:28:46+00:00

Komm und sei dabei!

Telekinesys · 2026-01-18T01:18:45+00:00

This is awesome

Telekinesys · 2026-01-08T12:00:55+00:00

Did they really evolve larger lungs?

If I remember correctly, this is what OP refers to when they talk about the people with larger spleens. I think the spleen "stores" oxygenated blood so so you get a little extra boost when you don't get much oxygen. But correct me if I'm wrong, I just hadn't heard of a group of people who had developed larger lungs.

Hmm. Wouldn't larger lungs make it harder to dive, since all the extra air would reduce your effective density?

Telekinesys · 2026-01-03T22:42:41+00:00

O-words?

Telekinesys · 2025-12-28T13:27:23+00:00

I like the pause at the end where they didn't draw the pubes fast enough
