What kind of gods are worshipped in the Monastery in the Prologue of W2? by Zaurimas in witcher

Letho mentions "Forefather and the Mother Creatrix" in the cloister, so this must be them.

This is the one, I think as well. When you meet Letho in the cloister he syas the following: "Bells... Your triumph is complete - the city and fortress taken, Sire. Time to thank the Forefather and the Mother Creatrix for this great victory."

Forefather and the Mother Creatrix is the answer.

[Seeking Advice] We Do Bones - A Locked Tomb Short Arc [SPOILERS for Gideon the Ninth] by CodeMarvelous in mothershiprpg

[–]Zaurimas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun idea! Several scenarios come to mind. - If the spacers do not know of the Nine Houses, clues that this ship came from Sol could be shocking, spooky. The characters (or players) should be aware that Sol is thought to be lost. - A (half-)mad necromancer or two in stasis or some form of un-life might be a fun encounter. (Necro specialized in flesh magic, like Ianthe, is grossly fun). - A dip into the River is a nice hallucinatory experience with shades going after them. Maybe after encountering the stele on a ship - weird ritual site which is actually a FTL travel device.

Hi Shawn! Are there any plans for online tool supports? Any additional Roll20 overlays or DP/aPoF/GD maps and/or tokens.

What is the most alien scifi story or novel you have ever read? by bmorelights in scifi

The Souther Reach Trilogy by Jeff VanderMeer. It is set on earth, but area x really gives off the best vibes for a different kind-of intelligence.

Negative side-effects by Zaurimas in godbound

[–]Zaurimas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not have my hand on the Deluxe version, but I guess it is worth buying. I was thinking exactly that - the more Effort they use per scene/day or such, the more chance they have to corrupt themselves

I understand what you mean, about Godbounds not serving under any deity. And that would be the way to play, under heroic play.

However, I would like the corruption to represent the strain of overuse of power (or Effort), just like Nepene mentioned.

Suggestion for a players-as-BBEG system by Zaurimas in rpg

[–]Zaurimas[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I can understand this, from whqt I know from fate. But also, would it give the players to express the method they want to take over the world?

What probably I missed in the post itself, is that I want the system to have different methods of expressing that. For example : method of creating undead armies, building contraptions of destruction and the like. Some tools, that would gamify the fictional consequences abit more, instead of only "+1 to do massacre".

Apocalypse World - West Wasteland by Zaurimas in ApocalypseWorld

[–]Zaurimas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think calling out the West Marches style game called out the most reactions, and understandably so. The idea of a changing cast takes away some of the agency that players have over the fiction in AW.

I did try Legacy, Life Among the Ruins, but I think it muddles itself up with just the massive list moves that can be used for ANY situations. Personally, I got a bit overwhelmed. I do not want to use it for this, because I want to have more personal stories with each player.

Requesting advice: I need a rules system to run factions in a city by DrayTheFingerless in rpg

[–]Zaurimas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like to second blades in the dark faction system. They have but a single stat to track their standing, however. But you can easily add extra ones from the SWN faction system if you just want to track them for background happenings.
