everything reminds me of her (d&d character from now-defunct campaign)

probablybadrpgideas

Paladin with a firm oath against killing but keeps bringing it up in really weird contexts.

"Thank you for the christmas sweater! Just to remind you, I do have a vow against killing you over it. What, no, I love the sweater! I just wanted you to know it would violate my oath to kill you over it!"

probablyfunrpgideas

This is a classic way for Lawful Good characters to interrogate evil characters! You let them interrogate and frighten themselves: “Oh, I’m going to do something worse that you can imagine. Any guesses?” Any decent villain wants to prove their creativity, so they’ll try to outdo you with horrible tortures. Keep them guessing and lead the conversation toward the information you want.

Idea: play a paladin with an oath to explain all their other oaths and their powers, to give opponents a fair understanding of the challenge they face.

[ID: A Val and Isaac comic titled “Riddles Three.” Val and Isaac stand in a large mausoleum-like room, where in the center sits a large creature with a round feathery body. She asks, “I am an eye, and I live in your eye socket. What am I?” Isaac asks, “An eye?”

The creature raises a claw and asks, “What is not a horse, but is a table?” Isaac answers, “A… table.” Now sweating, the creature asks, “If I, uh… If I have two apples, how many apples would I have?” Val looks at Isaac as he hesitates and says, “… Four.”

In the last panel, the room is cast in red by the blast of flame the creature is spitting. Val and Isaac hide behind stone pillars, and Val glares hard. Isaac defends himself with the shout, “I felt sorry for her!” End ID]

There is something so special about teen superhero team dynamics, from Power Rangers to magical girls and everything in between.

I help you fight evil. I let you sleep on my lap when we get back home. I know everything about you, things your parents never will. We've almost died together. We study for tests together. We are discovering ourselves. I hope I still know you in ten years. You turned evil once. I still got you a birthday present.

Wtf do u even mean “the thread of prophecy is severed” if the grand design is so fragil as to come unraveled by th severing of a single thread then maybe there’s a better Destiny in store for those who hold tha scissors -_-

A piece of advice that I THINK comes from the Blades in the Dark rulebook (but I'm not sure because I've read so many TTRPG rulebooks in the last year or so) but that I think could be applied to a lot of other TTRPGs is that a roll shouldn't make a competent character look incompetent.

Like, I think most players and GMs (especially those of us that come from the D&D paradigm) tend to think of the dice roll as representing how well the character does the thing. This seems intuitive, but it tends to make a character's perceived level of competency at the things they're supposed to be good at weirdly swingy, which might be undesirable unless you're aiming for a slapstick tone.

Like, your stats/skills/modifyiers/whatever the hell the game you're playing has/ already represent how good/bad your character is at doing certain stuff. So the die roll, being a luck-based number unrelated to these skills, probably shouldn't ALSO represent how well your character does the thing, but instead represent outside factors that influence the outcome of your action, such as something distravting your hero, the enemy jumping away to avoid the swing, or the lock you're trying to pick having a bit of rust that's giving you trouble.

In practical terms, what I'm saying is that if your thief with a decent sneak skill is trying to stealthily follow a guard, but you get a disastrous dice roll that causes you to be discovered, that dice roll probably shouldn't represent your thief suddenly stumbling over and making a lot of noise, but the guard suddenly remembering he left something in his quarters and turning around at the worst possible moment. Mechanically both get you the same result, but one of them doesn't have the unintended of effect of making it seem like your thief suddenly forgot how to sneak.

Wizard: Oh, I like your Goblin detecting sword! That's funny.

Goblin who thought they just had a cool glowing sword: ... My what now?
