I tried to be a gambling lass, but I didn't get accepted.
Being called a runner up hurts more than flat denial

Starfinder IS the Pathfinder 2.0 everyone had always cried for.

>Run game with 2 players 2 weeks ago
>2 new players coming this weekend
>1 player wants to redo his character

Looks like a slow session this weekend.

Mark talks about math

Tell me about the times you rescued the pure maiden from the dragon's lair!

Anyone here planning on running a Xenosaga campaign?

This.

I don't get why people miss the fact that it'll be completely viable to run a fantasy game with Starfinder.

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees more agricultureeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I neeeeeeeeeeeed ittttttt.

FOREST. GARDENZ.

symbiont-gardens.co.uk/welcome/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/coed-hen-ddoeth-13.jpg Too fucking big to upload, but amazing.

Iron gods?

One of the players is a Ranger/Druid of Lurue gestalt.

Unfortunately, most of the land is tamed, so he won't be running into many unicorns.

I think I'll have him receive a prophetic dream that leads him to a forest on an undiscovered island in the not!Mediterranean where there are some.

If he doesn't change his character.

If it's Not!mediterranean, instead of unicorns or whatever, use a nymph or dryad. They like their little sacred spaces and could be great for a chitchat as a semi-friendly NPC.

Merfolk were also a thing, you could have a reclusive one that's in her own little private cove (also probably a druid) that they can swap notes with. Introduce cute waifu's!!!! they're the best!

It's in Faerun. Specifically, the Old Empires.

I can have him find the island for his plot, and the other PCs can develop an adjoining island for their base.

This way, one PC has his story, and the other PCs can start their privateering on the Sea of Fallen Stars.

I can tie it to the Twelfth Seros War.

Dragon Princesses should be in every game!!

docs.google.com/document/d/1z3EOSCTZTBbNGO60d9O9xnVhVaeAayIIidXg6WeXQps/edit

Not since 3.0.

And the princess was a Bhaalspawn.

Sea of fallen stars has merfolk + aquatic elves. MAKE HIM A WAIFU

Adorable spaghetti spilling hermit-druid mermaid. She's hopelessly attracted to landfolk which is why she lives so far away from her people and so close to land

The Druid has no ranks in Swim.

THEN HIS NEW FRIEND CAN TEACH HIM, IT MIGHT BE A BIT AWKWARD CAUSE SHE'S STILL NOT SURE ABOUT LEGS but oh boy does she like to touch them to try and figure them out BUT SHE'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO GIVE HIM SWIMMING LESSONS.

she appreciates a well turned calf

A question for you all.

What do you look for in a setting supplement? Like a piece of the world getting elaborated.

No, they should be in no games at all.

social issues in kingdoms

They should be in some games. But not all games. Just the ones we run.

>8 out of 20 Iron Gods apps are Baine-related
How does he get involved with so many attractive people? Is it just that he's a great guy?

It's the easiest campaign trait to tie into your character and has the largest mechanical bonus.

I find it funny how they're all effectively competing for the same slot, though - I strongly doubt the DM will go for a full party of people adopted by Baine, this problem being far more pronounced with that trait than with literally any other one, which are more inter-compatible.
Picking Baine trait effectively nukes your chances of getting in.

The campaign is going to be a shit show. AP with 6 players and a level 3 start is already janky enough. But it allows PoW which has tons of hardness ignoring stuff at level 2 maneuvers. Six players is just too many, why do DM's do this.

Good DM should be able to fit all players in
It is not the player's job to fit into the campaign

6 players is actually very manageable, but it requires bit more passive players
one of our games has 6 players and since most of them enjoy playing bit more passively, the DM can manage it easily

The DM has no responsibility towards those players who don't get in.
It's in the DM's interest to choose the apps which works best together so people are more likely to have fun.
Thus, Bainefags are likely to get rekt as their apps get silly if taken together.

Avowed as well, who can just ignore hardness from level 1.

I know, I was being sarcastic

>It is not the player's job to fit into the campaign

On one hand, I'm a filthy liar
On the other, at least I'm a productive filthy liar.

This is the Soulforger pre-release playtest. Pre-release because it looks like shit due to me being too lazy to do proper formatting and clean everything up all fancy like. At some point I'll fix it to look better no promises are made but for now, here's everything that actually matters about the class.

Missing: good design, art, some fluff about why stealing people's souls and such is evil and may not let you stay in the good graces of most patron deities, etc.
Present: Everything else, including enough Forged Souls to make a small armory out of, and 6 Aspects to provide some needed diversity to the inevitable all-Soulforger party.

Feedback and comments are appreciated and can be sent either in the thread (though I might not see it all the time) or by following the contact information in the doc.

Now, tell me ONE reason you don't want come with me and steal some souls - and TWO reasons why you do. It's gonna be awesome, I tell you.

Hey, I've been playing Pathfinder for a while now but normally don't come to /pgg///pfg/, and I want to ask, how do you guys feel about PCGen?

My group's been using it for character sheets due to our collective inability to keep papers in good shape between our sessions, which are a long time between each, and it seems to make it easier for us to see the points of and build classes we're not used to.

Speaking of... i've been working this, cause i'm bored and i thought maybe someone else might wanna use it.

docs.google.com/document/d/1sWZd7FGh7CibunEVeIrDvQufTEGnOseIHl9c4NGcrhg/edit

no where near being done yet.

I can see it being useful, especially in your case.

Personally, I don't like automated sheets. I don't like having to search for a place to put every odd bonus I have. I would rather just have space to write in, like the Myth-Weaver's sheets.

Related: I do use roll20 macros, but like some people can get really retarded with it. A DM I played with would literally make variables for every single pathfinder skill for every single PC. It was meant to save time later, but the macros didn't even work!

Tell me about your character ideas for Iron Gods, /pfg/!
And how about Intrigue? Those are also interesting.

A cute girl that is a futa/lesbian with nice tits.

But will you PM other players?

No, but I will go afk in the middle of a game to jack off because I got an erection from describing my cute slut pussy/dick giving some bullshit excuse like "brb dinner".

How does PFS work?
How does it breed people like these?
He is almost as bad as people in this place!

So, my friend flaked out on me. Again. My DM gave us a small tease of what we'd be fighting. Nothing too complicated, just a powerful ghost. They even gave us the stats for it.

Cue my friend whining and saying that it's 'too hard'. Should I make him not my friend? He's done this and flaked a LOT. He complains a lot about Intrigue, AKA anything that isn't combat.

Is your friend a Celestial Amphibian by any chance?

if you are truly friends, then conflict with them
only way to break up with real friends is a fight, not cold shoulder

Ok so let me get this straight. As long as have four arms. I can dual wield two bows?

So tell me, /pgg/. I have an issue, and it's something I've always wanted to do, and it makes sense in the context of the game, but how do I make it happen?

Im playing a Wizard, and her entire focus is studying, learning, and mastering magic. We're not too high level, but it's looking like the only way we're going to be able to ring the final boss's bell is by stripping all of the magic from the world. This is something my character cannot stand. She knows it's necessary, but she just can't reconcile a world in which everything she knows becomes moot.

I want her last hurrah to be a momentous, cathartic apotheosis of her craft. I'm working on scrimping and saving the money for it, but before the last battle we have to strip magic from the world.

So I'm thinking the last thing she does will be a massive, momentous wish. As in simultaneously casting enough scrolls of Wish that all of the other party members get +5 inherent to all of their stats and a massive layer of buffs and magical protections going into the final fight. (the game is hella animu, so I doubt the DM will strip those bonuses.)

But I want it to kill her. Thematically it just makes me happy to think that her last act, as the most studied mage in the world, is to perform an Arch Spell, and then fade away along with the age of magic.

How do I do this?

There's an archetype specialising in TWF'ing bows.
d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/ranger/archetypes/paizo-ranger-archetypes/bow-nomad-kasatha-ranger-archetype

Yeah. If you look at the Aegis class it states that with the final tier of the extra-arms customization (Which gives you a second set of fully functional arms) that you could wield two two-handed weapons. Bows are always two handed weapons and no other stipulations are given, so yes in that context and thus presumably others. Its worth noting that most sources of extra-limbs specifically don't grant extra attacks so check whatever ability you're using to get them.

Eagle no one wants your god damn ultra thicc women to come into our games and take our jerbs.

Find a copy of the Epic Level Handbook (3.0)

Either try to make your version of Karsus's Avatar, or you own version of Mordenkainen's Disjunction that causes enough backlash to kill you.

As an afficanato of thicc dragon women, i can say that these immigrants to your games bring new skills, diversify the gene pool, and fill employment holes.

Its not like you were going to retrain into a needed field

Dragonlayers campaign WHEN?

>want to app as an Ungermaw
>it's become a meme
>scrap idea
>brainstorm for new idea

>want to app as a tiefling
>already tons of fucking tieflings
>scrap idea
>brainstorm for new idea

>want to app as a woman
>EVERYONE IS A WOMAN
>scrap idea
>drink

I just wanted to play Carnal Crown

just fucking play an ungermaw. They're great

Don't let memes stop you from having fun. Be that devouring monster of endless hunger and dubious morality!

Be an Ungermaw in iron gods

Iron Gods doesn't allow Gonzo

Maybe.

My DM is a little animu but he's kind of on the spot when it comes to rules. I could MAYBE make a 9th level spell that accomplishes such a feat, so long as the material components are equivalent to the casting of 5x6x5, or 125 wishes. Even if I just make it so the other 5 only get +5 to their two relevant stats, it becomes 2x5x5, or 50x25000, so... 1.25million GP.

That's a lot of saving up.

Iron gods is also dead by the look of things. MIA in like the past 4 days.

>Most mithral armors are one category lighter than normal for purposes of movement and other limitations
>and other limitations
What did they mean by this?

Things like "this ability can only be used while wearing light armour or no armour".

And if you have a armored kilt and a light armor (together both count as medium, by the way, what means it counts as medium?) made of mithral?

DM fiat.

Armored Kilt is from PC which is 3pp splat and thus requires GM fiat

Wearing an Armored kilt with ANY Light armor makes it medium. So regardless of whether the say... Mithril Breastplate was light or not, sticking an armored kilt on it, RAW makes it Medium. It's not a weight or manueverability thing, sticking the heavy kilt on INSTANTLY makes whatever armor you're already wearing medium, Mithril or not.

Also I need a good name for this spell.

It's going to completely change the final fight for the party, and they're going to be down a Me.

I'm thinking something animu as fuck, like
Mana Arte: Apotheosis

Stat me, /pfg/

paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/prd/bestiary/shoggoth.html

Old One companion of a Bethrothed Avowed.

That actually sounds like a really fun thing to play as.

Can Maddening Cacophony be spammed infinitely in one round until all creatures in range make the save?

I hope you all have a good day anons

yep. but it doesn't stack with itself, so it really either becomes 'Make the save and shut it out' or, 'You're confused for 1d6 rounds. and take 1d6 wis damage per round.'
You're already affected if you fail the save, and further applications don't continue or abet the duration.

Not in my computer right now but how much it costed to make a magic item be usable in another body slot?

+50%

50% cost increase to make it slotless. No official ruling on cost increases to change the slot it occupies (talk to your DM).

No, slotless is +100%.
Another slot is +50%.
Reread the rules or even just look at ioun stone pricing, m80.

Actually, all of the responses were wrong.
Here's the only thing the actual rules say:
>No space limitation - Multiply entire cost by 2 Ioun stone
>Multiple different abilities - Multiply lower item cost by
It doesn't say how much just swapping the slot costs.

>Multiply lower item cost by 1.5
I fucked up copy-pasting.

It's absolutely startling to see three wrong answers before the right one shows up for such a basic question. I guess anons shouldn't Veeky Forums before they've had their coffee.

You don't need to be an ungermaw to swallow Minnie whole!

Exactly this! Be the female tiefling ungermaw you always wanted to be!

Why dont you have an eunuch for mentor?

My character doesn't have the balls to ask one to mentor him.

You too user.

What do you do if you're the DM and your party has just been TPK'd, or is about to be? Do you fudge the die slightly? Do you make up a reason for one or two of them to be resurrected? Do you roll new characters?

Depends on the context.

My group is very roleplay heavy, so I tend to DM with death being a MAJOR setback, as opposed to a game-ender. There's a threat of losing all the shit you've worked for up to that point, but not the character.

In my Dark Heresy game though, all bets are fucking off.

Surreder and be sold into slavery.

Like someone else said, depends on why it happened and who they were fighting. You could
>Have them all wake up in confinement, having miraculously survived but been captured
>Have some kind of oracle who can view the future resurrect them. Kinda dumb, but you can have them ask/take a high price

Ok, and to make it look different? instead of a cape a scarff for example

Refluffs are a freebie as long as you don't change mechanics aka keep the same slot.

What game currently has the memest apps?

It's Carnal Crown. You were going to make a meme regardless.

None, the great age of memes is over.

The only game I can see that could produce Quality Memes is the high-level god(s)layer campaign, and that was put on hiatus.

What WOULD people make for a high-level god(s)layer campaign anyway? Would some of the homebrew stuff we have be allowed for that?

what are some of the most must have magic items for a 5th level char? Thinking on a gish char.

If it's going to be maximum meme potential, it'd be gestalt.

Can I be a Tome-Smiter gestalted with avowed so I can super charge throwing my weapons from extra dimensional space, pelting down the gods with artillery stikes?
