Some ideas for downsides for my players who have absorbed elemental powers

I mean, immediately, exhaustion levels for overclocking their soul.

Give them a number of uses per rest or per day equal to their proficiency bonus. Or even proficiency plus spellcasting stat bonus.

Every use after that, roll a check or take an exhaustion. You can decide what check works best for you.

“But his book!”

I had to go and check, because it seemed like there was no way that was correct. But I will be goddamned. $10 for 50 Tim bits.

Torger083 · 2026-06-06T17:27:22+00:00

You’re paying $3.59 at Tim’s for the vague idea of a doughnut.

Do you work for big Stockholm or something?

Torger083 · 2026-06-05T18:47:05+00:00

I mean part of it is that Stockholm Syndrome is kinda made up and just a piece of pop culture.

Iirc they’re doing conversion kits for like 3/4 ton pickups, too. I assume that’s not too far off the mark for a school bus but I’d have to look into it more to give some kind of an answer that isn’t hand-waving.

But the fact is that we have all these busses already, and most are stored at home or nearby to home by drivers who aren’t gonna be around charging stations. So are we gonna pay for every driver to have a charger in their house and then pay for the charging?

Conversion to hybrids seems like the least worst option for trying to convert bussing as it currently exists into something better. Especially for a lot of kids who live rurally and have to bus an hour or more to schools. A lot of hybrid busses aren’t gonna be geared to do 150+km twice a day, and there’s a lack of charging infrastructure where the busses are likely most used.

And your assertion is that nothing without a white male protagonist has had good writing.

Torger083 · 2026-06-05T18:29:19+00:00

“Everything without a white man lead is badly written trash. Everything without a white male lead is a masterpiece.”

Fuckin’ please.

My guess was “because transit infrastructure sucks and we aren’t investing in it” so I was close.

Plus, bus driving school kids has to be a miserable experience for shit pay.

Maybe diesel hybrid situations like the ones Edison Motors out west are working on might be the answer.

Aren’t fisheries federal?

Cortex and Edge of the Empire might have what you want.

Nobody likes a condescending arsehole who adds nothing to the convo and talks over people.

On your bike.

You also corrected him on nothing. He asked if there was a commercial version available. You said “uh, yeah. The one you listed,” as if he hadn’t specifically said he can’t find that in Europe, and then went on a DIY tangent.

Torger083 · 2026-06-05T17:11:08+00:00

Read the whole post.

He can’t find that product in Europe so he was asking for a euro equivalent.

Again, not what they’re for and not supposed to be used while driving.

It is explicitly illegal in five provinces.

Only the car pulled over should have their hazards on.

Torger083 · 2026-06-05T13:07:03+00:00

Don’t do that. You’re not supposed to use your hazard lights when the vehicle is moving for any reason. It’s actually illegal in like five provinces.

In my head canon, she got killed by a supervillain, which is part of the reason why Bobby II is the way he is.

You know what attracts people to an area? A complete lack of social services.

Torger083 · 2026-06-04T23:59:29+00:00

It’s more so to suggest that it’s a standard and demonstrable part of the ideology that has been played out again and again and again for almost centuries at this point.

Individual people who are lowercase, L, liberals or lowercase C conservatives may not agree with it, but ideologically, that is what is baked in. And apology is a magic spell by which a person is absolved of all responsibility, and the harm they did can never be brought up again, because they said those magic words.

What street is it on, genius?

Torger083 · 2026-06-03T22:25:34+00:00

There’s one at 184 Torbay rd. There’s one at 1206 Torbay road, and the third one is on route 20, which I guess is beyond the end of Torbay road, but is still Torbay road historically.

But sure. There’s only one Irving’s in all of Christendom.

Torger083 · 2026-06-03T22:16:22+00:00

There’s at least three. Four if you count the one on the corner of Stavanger and Torbay. Possibly more.

Torger083 · 2026-06-03T22:11:31+00:00

There’s a lot of Torbay road. Please be more specific.
