??

I use vanguard alongside rearguard and torchbearer to describe marching orders.

Also, from what I've heard, egregore's are no joke. stay away from that shit.

Felt it would be good to inspire an uplifting sort of campaign. Like a small band of adventurers searching for meaning outside of their small world.

Saw it in pic related, was intrigued by the concept.

It's German, a longing for something or someone that can't be satisfied in the foreseeable future.

>It's German, a longing for something or someone that can't be satisfied in the foreseeable future.

That's a pretty good example actually.
But you can be Sehnsüchtig for something that actually exists too.

It's basically just a word for longing for something just out of reach. I am sehnsüchtig for chocolate but the store's closed. I have a Sehnsucht to play this new game but all of my friends are faggots that only play one game

>I am sehnsüchtig for chocolate but the store's closed.
What if the store opens tomorrow? Still sehnsüchtig?

>onii-chan

>desu
>kimochi

It's not tomorrow yet, is it?
And also Sehnsucht is pretty much used like desire or want in the usual german day-to-day language.

Yes, but only if you're a pretentious faggot.

Friendly reminder that running a campaign because you want to use a world is the assbackwards way of DMing.

Campaigns and settings should all be selected and created with input from the group.

Don't be one of the pleb DM's who runs a group just because they want an audience or rely on ready made settings.

>It's not tomorrow yet, is it?
I was working with >can't be satisfied in the foreseeable future.
tomorrow is foreseeable future, unless you're a mayfly

>sehnsucht
Basically what Kuro-Ryuujin are supposed to be played as. Or at least a possible way.

I'm a german and I stand by my definition, because that's how we use the word.

You're implying that every DM has a regular group. In all cases where I've played, DM'd or seen others play, it's been a DM with a campaign in place, looking for players to come pick it up.

Had a shitty DM, then took over the same group with a new setting, and they were all pleased enough with it.

>my way of DMing is the only good way of doing it, wah

>Like a small band of adventurers searching for meaning outside of their small world.
Although Wiki states that Sehnsucht might be used to describe a craving for unknown places it usually stands for a longing for people, places or items that are already known to a person (experiencing certain feelings once again). The word you're looking for is Fernweh.

Well, I've learnt something today.

Thanks user.

Yes, Fernweh is the general desire to break free of your day to day life

Hmm, I see. For all it's worth I have sehnsucht yer teflon-kanzlerin would GTFO.

>Fernweh
>sehnsucht
Man germans sound like theyre a depressed bunch

Concupiscence & corpusclent effulgences my man

>Honour
>Duty

You're a try hard fag if these don't get you going.

>Crusade
>Ave Maria
>Deus Vult
I swear
Someday I'm gonna sit down and write my crusade campaign. Humans removing Orcs.

OP, literally just okay Chronicles of Darkness. Use all of these (and more) in one campaign.

there's also high fallutin' literary use of a word and day to day use.
ennui is this deep, elaborate world-weary cynical lethargy if you read work like Sartre.
In everyday use, it just means you're bored.

The term 'high fallutin' really makes me want to build a campaign around it.
