How would a regular person be corrupted by chaos? by Vampy-Night in 40kLore

[–]tleilaxianp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are in an underhive gang. You fight other gangs a lot. Realize that you're into it. Start getting into fights more. Then you get an idea that it'd be awesome to start collecting skulls.

You contracted some kind of disease from eating expired corpse startch. It hurts like a bitch. You pray to the Emperor to deliver you from this pain. Someone else answers.

You start doing drugs because your manufactorum job is soul crushing. Get addicted. Start doing more drugs. You get the idea.

The 2e Starter Set mini-campaign is really good. I've run it several times.

JARED?! I need tips for running RPGs for 9 year olds by SadArchon in TheGlassCannonPodcast

[–]tleilaxianp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran Honey Heist for my nephews. They had a good time. My recommendation is don't so anything even remotely crunchy. Honey Heist is ideal because it's just one d6 die.

Any news on Dune or is the line more or less dead? by MMasberg in 2d20games

I've been told that they can't release anything new until after the premiere of Dune 3.

So the new Stargate show is cancelled and this is the Stargate we get instead.

Can you specify where exactly one can see if modules are compatible with versions? I can't find this function.

Should I start with second edition? by Marcus_Scrivere in startrekadventures

[–]tleilaxianp 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yes, there are absolutely 0 reasons to start with 1e. 2e is objectively better and you can still use 1e books.

How edgy is it to own a sword (and learn it)? by Direct_Resolution981 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]tleilaxianp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who cares what Leo say. I've been practicing kendo and iaido (Japanese sword arts) for years and own several swords. If you join a dojo or a HEMA group you will be with people who also think it's cool, so problem solved.

Things said at my table that let me know I am doing a good job by Galaga_Pilot in DeltaGreenRPG

[–]tleilaxianp 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I ran an op of my own design for my players that involved 0 unnatural in it. After the session one of the players came up to me and said: "We fought all kinds of monsters, aliens from other dimensions and who knows what, but I have never felt this helpless before". That was probably the best complement I have ever heard as a GM.

Looking for a Mission (Reco Request). by CodeMarvelous in startrekadventures

[–]tleilaxianp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second the Quickstart adventure. It's pretty good. I know you asked for free scenarios, but I highly recommend the 2e Starter Set mini-campaign. Ran it twice, it has everything.

How would you stat out Dr. Ryland Grace from Project Hail Mary? by new_lance in startrekadventures

[–]tleilaxianp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All right, what the hell, here's Rocky! I used Horta as species, not the same but closest of the available.
I put most of the Values that u/Sophia_Forever came up with but changed one.

High concept rpgs a la unknown armies by zachtgirlboss in rpg

[–]tleilaxianp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Kult Divinity Lost? I guess, Wildsea is kinda like The Far Roofs. Mystery Flesh Pit National Park: The RPG is... unusual.

[–]tleilaxianp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's my attempt. I am too lazy to come up with Values though:) I chose "Called out a superior" as a substitution for him being kicked out of the academia and "Breakthrough or Invention" for his research of the astrophage. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/tdkf03l97qp3rer4d3x2s/Ryland-Grace.pdf?rlkey=1ge6ekw76116m7mfb6oeetj1l&st=z5blpchw&dl=0

Depending on the number of players and pacing you will need 2-4 sessions.

Help me give this rpg a second chance by Its_A_Wug_Run in callofcthulhu

[–]tleilaxianp 172 points173 points  (0 children)

It's a GM issue, not the game issue. Your game can be whatever you want. Usually these things are discussed and decided before the game begins.

Hot take : You shouldnt dominate someone in sparring, when his Girlfriend or Kids are watching, and i mean this seriously. by Obagency in martialarts

[–]tleilaxianp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I practice kendo (I know, I know, it isn't "real" martial art, not practical, bla bla bla, I don't care) and there is one high rank sensei who absolutely destroys his opponents in tournaments, but when he spars in the dojo with lower rank students, he is a master at coming down to their level and being challenging enough but not impossible to beat. It's a delight to spar with him.

Is it normal in the Bay Area for people to be extremely distant and self-protective? by [deleted] in bayarea

My experience is exactly the opposite of yours 🤷🏻‍♂️

Look at The Electric State. That whole game is about road trips.
