Made, Saw, Played

Fuck you

explain.

Maid. Saw. Plaid. Say that out loud.

No.

oh. I am a dumbass, but at least I am laughing.

Skulls and Shackles games are aways the best excuse to play Revy.

Ice Mage that acts as a glorified radio operator

Shame that plaid isn't pronounced like played though

Motherfucker.

Also, one from a DM perspective - this is my current party. It's a fucking wild ride.

How do you get Kira and Mister Rogers in the same person? Is he just not perturbed by things?

Actually, so if the Tiefling's the Undyne in this relationship, how did you get her or Finn into the same person who has Kira? I'm confused.

Tell me more of this potential-edgefest-turned-mystfying-beauty.

How does the Rincewind character work?

Wouldn't the other party members get annoyed at his cowardice/not helping in fights?

Maybe he's clever like Young Joseph and knows how to get shit done even when he's a coward?

honestly the kira bit is mostly because sorceror, and blowing shit up. She's actually the most chill member of the party, which is kinda impressive since she's got the most generic edgy "blah blah i was at an orphanage blah blah MY BROTHER WAS MURDERED blah blah MY LIFE SUCKS" backstory ever, at least initially. The one thing she had to tie her to her past was a signet ring with what would be the symbol of Asmodeus, at least in the standard D&D setting.

When the campaign started, I sort of groaned as i read her backstory "orphan, blah blah, brother died, blah blah, mysterious past, canot remember anything before she was 3 years old"

Long story short, I picked this up as a plothook and ran with it. The party is currently tracking down her parents and the rest of their old adventuring party, who were all paladins. While this is going on, they're also being caught up in shady shit involving magitech-rocking secret agents from a foreign nation, one of whom is the primary antagonist, and slowly becoming what amounts to a female version of DIO.

It's a glorious acid trip of a campaign.

Rincewind's cowardice is sort of a running joke. Besides, he's useful to the party in weird ways - His rambling efforts to pretend that he knows anything about magic have actually occasionally been right about things, and given the party hints about what's going on.

To clarify, the Josuke and Rincewind characters are LITERALLY Josuke and Rincewind. Nobody's quite sure how they ended up in this setting, but they're trying to work it out and find a way back. honestly i have no idea either

This bitch better have style like David Bowie in a fantasy setting, because if not, then at this point, it's a missed opportunity.

That said, glad you guys made that shit backstory work. Also, why Dio when you can be Diego?

Also, since you have Josuke running around? Start spouting stuff about the True's Man World with a scrawny looking minor villain.

>the main villain is just a big pile of references, like seriously i keep realising more and more shit she's based off with every moment i work on her character
>the tiefling's backstory was "waah waah my life is shit MY PARENTS ARE DEEAAAADDD"
>hfw the party's handler turns around and says "the fuck are you on about, they were alive last time i saw them"
>hfw she finds out she's technically nobility of a sort

>the party's fucking faces when their current main allies are an angsty halfling, a too-old-for-this-shit giant robot, a snarky vampire dickhead and cyborg james bond

i've got stories from this party if anyone wants them, could also do up a MSP for the supporting cast

You know Veeky Forums is a sucker for stories. Of course, we want them.

Aight, gimme a bit to check some notes and write shit up. I gotchu, user.

You're a prince among men, user.

Aight, let's start with something to give you a general idea of how these idiots interact.
The time the party found an arrow.
>The party have just arrived in a massive trade hub, looking for the headquarters of the paladin order the old party belonged to
>They find it (It's actually on the astral plane, and is accessed through a portal in a small, unassuming building)
>The next day
>They're all standing around outside for god knows what reason
>"Guys, why is it foggy all of a sudden?"
>Visibility is down to 50 feet at best
>Suddenly, a small gondola emerges from the fog and paddles down the river next to the road they're standing around on
>it draws up to the bank and anchors itself
>the only person inside is wearing a bulky, full-body suit and mask, with a wide-brimmed hat
>they call over the elf ranger by name
>the party's faces when
>this random fucker in what is effectively a victorian-era magical darth vader suit (in terms of function, not design) makes the ranger an offer
>In exchange for a blue gemstone the party had been left by the main antagonist, he would give the ranger information
>information about the man who knows how to cure his siblings, because TRAGIC BACKSTORY AMIRITE
>The ranger agrees
>This inquisitor-looking motherfucker hands him a briefcase and paddles off into the fog, explaining it as a "show of good faith"
>the ranger opens the briefcase
>an impractically small bow and a single, ornate arrow with a large head
>He takes it inside and shows the rest of the party
>josuke's fucking face when
>Josuke takes the arrow
>he has a theory about what it is, but isn't sure
>he decides to test this by having Crazy Diamond throw it, as hard as he can, at the elf
>MFW
>Everyone's faces when
cont'd

Is that a kobold named Fribble?

>the elf fails his to-dodge roll
>the arrow hits him square in the chest
>he immediately collapses to the ground, falls unconscious and starts shedding sand
>like, sand is coming out of his skin, it's fucking weird
>everyone apart from josuke is understandably confused
>the elf has a weird dream sequence where he jumps out of the way of, and then shakes hands with, a sand elemental looking thing
>he wakes up, the arrow drops out of his chest
>he says some shit in japanese because FUCKING WEEABOOS IN MY CAMPAIGN
>summons what he, and the rest of the party, believes to be a stand
>it's the sand thing from his dream sequence
>josuke's suspicions have been confirmed, and he immediately tries to destroy the arrow
>the tiefling mage hands it away from him and puts it in a bag of holding
>He lunges at the tiefling in an attempt to get it back, and is immediately smacked into unconsciousness by a 10 foot tall robot.
>josuke's player's face when the last half an hour

the kobold's actually named Ossra. Originally started as a generic tagalong NPC the party saved from some goblins, turned into a PC when a new guy wanted to join up.

final part of this clusterfuck
>Party thinks it's just about wrapped up
>suddenly
>[TIEFLING], you feel something leaving your bag of holding, and something entering your wrist.
>The arrow enters the tiefling's arm, works it way up to the shoulder and exits
>She hasn't manifested a stand yet. YET.
Anyone want more of this bullshit or is this campaign too dumb for Veeky Forums?

Nothing's too dumb for Veeky Forums, keep going user!

Aight. Which one do you want next?
>That time the tiefling killed someone with a seduction roll
>that time the party accidentally created an artifact weapon
>That time the party dropped a mansion-sized antimagic field on someone
>The Twist featuring M.Night Shlamalamadingdong and the tiefling
>The party gets lunch, featuring cyborg james bond, Tonio and the BBEG
>What a Twist Part 2: Midget Boogaloo
>Awaken, My Mecha!

Go through them in order, my man.

accidentally a whole artifact

Since it's been a bit and I've heard nothing, I'm just gonna pick my personal favourite. Who's ready to hear about how the party beat the shit out of a whole gang of orcs, made a big ol- antimagic field and learned that the main villain is, in fact, fast as fuck.
>The party have tracked down the villain to a mansion on the outskirts of town, where she and her orc underlings have been gathering loot
>They're aware she can teleport
>So they decide that the best course of action is to cover the entire mansion in an antimagic field
>unfortunately, the only paladin in the party is level 3
>And then the party remembered that their handler was a paladin, who based on what they'd seen was most likely near-epic level
>So they came up with a plan
>Their boss would write up a modified version of the standard antimagic field spell that could cover a larger area, and the kobold would go with her to pick up some materials
>Two days, 30 pounds of iron powder and a very confused blacksmith later
>It's time
>Josuke, Rincewind and the elf's players are unavailable
>this is fine.jpg
>the remaining two players and their handler roll into this mansion after casting this fucking ridiculous antimagic field
>the tiefling remembers she can't cast normal magic anymore
>but that's okay, because she has a sword
>and 9 strength
continued

shit, sorry guys. Gonna finish this one and then go through the rest in chronological order.

Anyway,

The tiefling, kobold and halfling proceed to do what you'd expect player characters to do to low level human and orc goons for about two floors, rescuing a bunch of prisoners and their actual employer along the way
>they're on the second floor (the one above the ground floor for our international comrades)
>they see a lumbering beast of a humanoid at the end of a corridor, an ogre they let live at the end of the last dungeon
>he spots the tiefling and calls her out
>"DEMON LADY! FIGHT ME!"
>andherewego.gif
>the tiefling seems wholy undisturbed by this
>looks at the kobold
>throws her rapier away, it sticks into the stonework because fuck i don't know
>She holds a hand out with her palm upwards
>Closes her eyes and mutters something
>A giant fucking sword made out of fiery orange magic appears
>This is an ability she gained a session or two ago, but hadn't used yet
>Basically a refluffed version of Pact of the Blade's weapon summoning bit, with one key difference
>she can summon oversized weapons

>Turns back to the ogre
>Gets the first hit in
>HALVES his health

>Halfway up the stairs, they hear a door slamming open, then shut, then glass breaking
>reach the top of the stairs, greeted by a very startled and confused orc who's dropped his sword

>at speeds comparable to a horse

>genuinely proud of the party at this point
>i expected murderhoboing
>i got none
And that's that story done with. Next up, the time they accidentally a whole artifact and found a kobold
Anyone still reading this shit?

Suffering of the highest levels.

I'm reading. Keep going

Im reading

Keep going man, this stuff is gold. Hell, make a thread for this stuff.

Aye aye, captain!

So, the time they found an ossra, accidentally an artifact and fought a stand-using orc.

>By some unholy coincidence, be it the stars aligning, some ancient magical machinery nearby reacting to this bullshit, a divine joke or just GM fiat, SOMETHING interacted with the tiefling's fire magic and the rapidly atomising goblin's scimitar
>It falls to the ground, perfectly intact
>full-party wat
>it's cool to the touch
>On inspection, a few small runes have appeared on the surface of the blade
>Rincewind, managing to bullshit his arcana check, guesses it might mean it's a fire weapon.
>He's right, but only coincidentally.
>The sword was then dubbed Ventus Reddere, and was given to the Elf. He's used it ever since, primarily because his bow exploded one session later.
>The party walks into the last room of the dungeon
>A tied-up knight in the corner, some coins and other shite in another corner and a large orc posing dramatically
cont'd
Also, should I make a thread for this shit? I'd be down, but there's already a storytime thread up. I'll stick here for now.

Party: rogue/thief, wizard with low int and me. I somehow ended up as the tank and also dps.The other wizard managed to cast 3 spells successfully the whole night and nearly died twice

...

>The orc poses even more dramatically, and shouts "DED KILLY SMASHA"
>he doesn't know a lot about music, clearly
>A 15 foot tall knight appears from him, looming menacingly over the par-
>oh, the ranger and tiefling threw everything thet had at him
>nevermind, he's dead

>"but we literally tried to kill you five minutes ago"
>"yeah but those guys were keeping me as a slave"
>"oh ok"
>and so the party acquired what, after a bath and a fresh change of clothes, turned out to be a kobold
>Cue minor plot point where the tiefling noticed that their handler just HAPPENED to have clothes made to fit something the size of a human child with a tail
>this is my favourite hint i've dropped in this whole campaign
any guesses as to what it lead to?
Next up: The time the tiefling killed someone by rolling seduction.
Pic semi-related, the first roll20 campaign banner I made for this campaign.

cont'd

I made a half orc bard. The GM gave us all a bunch of gold to spend on magic items to reflect us starting at tenth level. I got a Dancing Sword and a Cloak of the Mountebank.

>Fighting a frost drake.
>Party casters are casting, melee fights are dealing with the drake's buddies.
>High Time dancing sword, dimension door to it with cape, cast Mislead with the illusion grabbing onto the sword for me.
>Ride drake crashing into ground, get blinded.
>Use eyesight from Mislead clone to find caster and charge.

And that was how I became Character Action Bard.

>Robed figure claps a hand on the orc king's shoulder and they vanish in a flash of light, because of course they do
>Guards and the biggie smalls duo look understandably confused

Anyway, that's just about all for tonight. Anything i've mentioned that anyone wants me to elaborate on before I go to bed? I'll make a thread for this tomorrow morning.

That was a fun campaign.

>eversor art
patrician taste in drawfags, user
pic related is something that's going to come up very soon in my campaign
it's the tiefling from 's parents

Which one is Eversor? I love all the art I got but I only know koboldanon by name.

eversor's artstyle is what i just linked and, at least, the top right one in your picture. I *think* yours is by him, but i'm not certain.
Also,Last call for any requests for elaboration before i go to bed.

See you tomorrow.

More stupid stories await, user. G'night.

...

at some point you realize that firebolts are just more effective than your axe

I see a connection

...

...

Got one or two as a GM.

Aaand their fave NPCs, the Gaira and C'iel Dragons.

People actually managed to play a full campaign of Anima?

Still going on. They just hit level 10 last sesh, after the Essence Sheele turned into a goddamned dragon and one-shot both an Infernal Duke and a Lord of Darkness.

That sheele's rolls always spike vs demons. Always.

kek

...

may I ask you, who is her Senpai?, another Guardsman?, a Space Marine?, an Inqisitor?, maybe a Sister of Battle?

There is only one true sempai, and his name is The Emperor! If I keep slaughtering his enemies, one day he will notice me!

oh sorry, forgot that, but if you only keep slaughtering his enemies, you will never get noticed by him

You might have a point. Purging xenos and heretics one by one is not very efficient. Who should I slaughter to get his attention quicker?

well, the problem is not, that purging xenos and heretics isn't very effective (it actually is)
the problem is just, there are thousands of other people who do that in the name of the emperor
so yeah, somehow there should be less of them
...that bitch from the 10th platoon?, just tell the commisionar, she was doing some heretical stuff
...those sluts who call themselves Sister of Battle?, well I guess their flamers and melters need a little bit of a disfunction
...the AdMech? They don't even praise the emperor, they praise another god, so technically, they are heretics
...the emperors beloved sons, the Space Marines? As long as they are around, it's hard to get noticed by big E
...and don't forget the Custodes (especially Kitty)

Speaking of the NPCs, here's the two that have been popping up to give advice to and/or taunt the party as they quest to destroy the five scrolls that would be used to control Svalkislavos.

Nobody wants them destroyed, Naytheist wanted them collected. They went with Nobody.

It's all BS, though. The scrolls are keys to NobodySatan's prison, which is still fine by Barnabus as that furthers thirteen of his countless plans.

I can see this already... one yandere sinking the imperium just so The Manperor notices her.

How do you bring yandere to 40k?

Explain.

I realize I was a bit of a That Guy during that game, didnt have the Paladin thing figured out back then and killed a party member because of it, plus it was my first real game. Gotten better since then and still have a soft spot for the character.

Botched the roll for charisma on my charismatic bard character, and then he just kinda started becoming more and more homocidal due to the insanity of our party.

Probably some uber charismatic very liberal and (((open minded))) sweet talker.

I played a communist telekinetic who expressed a desire to make friends with the monsters they were fighting. The group assumed she was going to be an uber-PC SJW, but when she said "we're going to make friends with everyone" I meant in the same sense Nanoha and the Blorg make friends with everyone, in classic soviet style.

...

They even want to give me parachute arrow.

>Blorg
Friendship through supperior firepower!

I demand an explaination of Nigga Guts

>what most Dogs in the Vinyard games I've played in devolve into.

trying to kick open a rreinforced window and trying to make dramtic entrance only too fail while stealing all of the towels

...

It was a fun Dark Sun campaign.

Death Cult for one thing.

T'was a fun game while it lasted. Shame the guy I was playing with decided he didn't like high levels and screwed me out of this.

I don't think i knew how to into Chaotic Good. I once tried to argue that "Summoning Undead is Okay if I use it for good purposes."

imagine this but instead of what we played it was a poorly written lesbian fuckfest plus spec-ops the line

Ah, carry on.
