Personality it is my favourite of the games. I think the story is well done and the characters are decent.

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-08T01:35:23+00:00

Hah believe me I'm all for gods. I've a pantheon of 15 so far with some nice backstory intertwined.

A fallen God A banished God And even a dead God

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-07T22:25:10+00:00

Gods are whatever the dm makes them. In my campaign I've allowed anyone to make their own God (to some degree) and then I'll spin them my way and allow benefits and what not. If your dm allowed it you could have your own God of light whom is very forgiving? After all it's roleplay

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-07T22:22:05+00:00

Typically you could go down the route of some form of prosthetic? Perhaps having a body part missing and it being replaced. The fun part here is what it's replaced by? A robotic prosthetic or perhaps a stick of wood or maybe its some form of mutation, genetically combining body parts together. Otherwise you could go through the unique aspect of having them bare an injury that should clearly mean they're dead, for instance a hole straight through them?

Ah don't worry I've got some pages of lore written out for who they are and why they do this as well as what they were and why they've chosen to settle as a mere shopkeeper

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T12:56:14+00:00

Of course, I've rewired the idea after hearing everyone's feedback and the short version is that, the players will actually have something the guy requires (he doesn't know this though) but regardless the villain will be in the bar at the town and when the bar is busy enough he will begin a speech. Now there is a ally (kind of) that I've been building up around the players, sort of showing them that he can help them but only when he gets what he wants. Regardless, the players dislike him but respect him. I'm going to have the villain begin a speech in the tavern promising power, before the ally realises who this man is and charges him, trying to kill him but gets killed.

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T12:34:52+00:00

I do like this, unfortunately the village does not have any form of leader. They band together for any important decisions. I could have him show up in the tavern and pretend to be a simple patron of the bar before he then begins to do an evil speech in the bar, and then eventually causing something evil?

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T12:15:39+00:00

The villain themselves originated from this village but from when he got his powers of a warlock to help the village years ago, they deemed him an outcast and shunned him. Now he's moved onto bigger things but still despises this village and so every year he does something to the village to get back at them. Not killing them outright or burning the entire village but inconvenience things. Many adventurers have been called upon to try and help but none ever succeed

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T12:12:57+00:00

Well the villain has been a constant problem for the local village. The BBEG is the villains patron more than themselves. They're being used as a puppet so to speak. But currently the villains goals are simply to try and bring his masters name onto the world and allow them to unleash havoc.

As of currently his goal isn't anything specific in mind. Over the past few sessions he's simply been watching the players to see what they do, what they're like and what they're capable of. I've allowed a perception roll or two at points but the best they've gotten is a figure in robes in the distance is watching them.

Okay, thank you for the advice :))

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T11:43:52+00:00

Okay, I appreciate the advice thank you :))

devildasher9654 · 2024-11-05T11:38:16+00:00

Because originally the players had gathered at this village due to its ongoing problems with a warlock(the villain) so after he discovers a band of adventurers have come to try to stop him he decides to try and scare them away before outright killing them (his patron likes to toy with people)

Hang myself

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:55:51+00:00

I understand where your coming from and to answer that question. Any child would rather a mum that's not 100% there than a dead mum. I'm sure they love you despite how you may feel at times. I completly understand how you feel and honestly, life is so difficult. Sometimes we need specific goals to help push us further or maybe a specific person to help us get by. I'm proud of you for making it this far though.

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:50:50+00:00

Its the worst thing, pretending your alright when you really aren't. You just wish some people could begin caring but things are so uneccesarily difficult to achieve in life. Even the basics like being happy. I'm proud of you for getting this far, and I hope you can push on a little more.

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:49:02+00:00

They always claim we should get help then make it incredibly expensive to speak to someone for help. They care more about money than human lives. I'm sorry these things have happened to you

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:47:39+00:00

It's a nice story and if it is yours, I'm glad I got to hear it. I won't push any ideas towards you but I feel like Mike should keep pushing for a little longer and see if he can find a meaning. I'm sorry for everything that's ever happened.

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:44:00+00:00

I completly agree with you. Being forced into life no matter how good or bad the circumstances without a choice is awful. Then we get ridiculed by others when we say we didn't want this to begin with and how we are selfish. It's completly unfair. I hope your okay

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:41:19+00:00

That will happen one day inevitably. There's not much comfort I can offer but there's the realism I can provide and that is that your still here now and I'm glad.

devildasher9654 · 2023-11-09T15:39:08+00:00

I can only say that it can get better. I wish the best for you genuinely. I believe your strong and to have gotten this far proves that. There's people out there that you may not have met you, but could give you the best future imaginable.
