Halloween is fast approaching, what spooky stuff do you do for your games?

Nothing, because I'm not a fucking anglo

Candies are bad for your health. Stop eating it

Writing a campaign setting. Probably won't be done in time for the holiday because I'm a procrastinator, but halloween-themed stuff is always in season.

Fuck me, I'm already burnt out on Halloween and it still a month and a half away.
Faggots started decorating the first goddamn week of August here.

>went into a cracker barrel last week
>already selling christmas shit
Every holiday has just been reduced a merchandising gimmick.

Body horror is usually pretty common in my games

I distinctly remember us not sucking. It's not that we lost quests, it's not the pol invasion. We just lost something, and I don't think it's ever coming back

My system is a really, really fucked together homebrew of Wushu, because when we started I didn't have a ton of free time and didn't want to have to stat up stands. It's a mess honestly, you'd probably have a better time using some of the systems in the Super Stand Sunday threads.

As long as it's in moderation, it's fine. I usually make my halloween candy last months.

Nazi mods stamped out Veeky Forums's spark a long time ago

They're only doing their jobs but the fact is Veeky Forums needs to be free to be lewd to achieve max potential

Nothing.

Straya really doesn't give a fuck about Halloween.

I'll probably have the town attacked by a headless horseman. It's cliche but it works.

I liked Derro. Play on body mods and alien abduction fears.

And Most people don't know about them.

I'm very happy to learn about these creatures. However, on one hand, I'm disappointed they don't look like Greys, while on the other, that girl is quite attractive.

I always wanted to have a scary gothic monster with jack-o-lanter head.

But never found any good idea. ANy cool suggestions? Together we might wipe out something nice.

What type fear should he induce?

share ideas.

So what're you going to do about it? Sit around a bitch for the rest of your lives?

I'm running Ravenloft, but with all the supernatural bits taken out. It's going to be a straight-up feudal adventure with a weird murderous baron, some rebellious peasants, and some politics. The PCs will be jumping at shadows and looking for spooky bullshit everywhere (and sure, there will be some of that), but the core plot will just be a weird old dude in his weird old castle, and a bunch of serfs who want him dead.

nah people just grew up and don't have much time to dedicate to Veeky Forums and newblood is from a lame generation.

Pumpkin spiders.
Arachnolopolis Rex of the Pumpkin Patch.
Bats that are chronic masturbators and live in your attic.
Gibbering mouthers stalking and doing tis best to consume the PCs in the most fucked up, alien ways possible.
Maybe combine all of it into one horribly fucked up scenario.

A jack-o-lanterns once created have a life of only a couple of weeks before it rots.
And the creature is fucking pissed once it discovers it.

So most monsters with a giant pumpkin head you see are the Jack trying to live longer. The most common path is ask for help a necromancer.

>Arachnolopolis Rex of the Pumpkin Patch.
Every year, the Great Pumpkin rises out of the pumpkin patch. It's a great time for great joy.

But for some reason, every year, there are no spiders from the 31st of October to the first day of spring. Where do they go?

Also, mix in some weird "small town sacrifices people to the field god" + "small town has a ritual fight with the next small town". The village just over the hill has no idea where the Terror Pumpkin Monster comes from, but it arrives every year and wreaks havoc.

I'm working on stuff for /svg/ and for Halloween. My issue is a lack of free time.

For Halloween I'm going to try and put together a spooky Splatoon adventure with a sunken warship and a rusty oil platform.

That sounds awesome. Squids, Kids, and probably a spooky ghost kraken.

this picture always reminded me of this card

>spooky ghost kraken
But that would mean spooky ghost tentacles.

I was thinking more some deep sea creepers, like pelican eels, angler fish with bio-luminescent ghost-squid lures, spider crabs, maybe a Frankenstein sperm whale that rattles the sunken vessel with it's cries.

Hello friend!

Awesome!

I have two words for you in terms of halloween splatoon creatures: Vampire Squid

Two of the Inkling crews/gangs I'm writing fluff for are the Lamp Rays and Abyssal Zone, they're Inklings infected with Volpirism. They're inspired by vampire squid and flying squid!

I also need to finish details for the Riptides and the Sea Lions, Gonalope (hooked warsquid) infected with Mastigosis.

I want to include both in the Halloween adventure.

Just remember, underwater:
-everything moves faster than you, you fat meat-ape
-everything moves in 3D. You're used to a 2D plane. Your instincts are wired wrong.
-things can come out of nowhere and vanish just as quickly.
-everything has had more time to evolve specialized niches, defenses, and tricks.

the board is too schizophrenic about its identity

Oh it's even worse for Inklings: water causes them to dissolve, rendering them unable to take physical form. Though, for the Savage Splatoon splat we're just making it so water dilutes their Ink and they can't take humanoid form or use Ink weapons.

I want to run a haunted house, but I don't know what system to use. I want an emphasis on investigation, with the players being unable to effectively fight back against the ghosts but CoC, Fear Itself, World of Darkness, etc. don't really accommodate for ghosts as far as I can tell, most of their monsters have a physical presence.

>pol invasion
Nice try shill, this board was always a /pol/ colony.

>Nazi mods stamped out reddit's degeneracy
ftfy

...

I have no idea what a Splatoon is, but I've got to ask.

Is this... is this some sort of kink thing? Is this on the border of your magical realm?

Because... based on your pictures... it looks a /little bit/ like it's a magical realm thing.

We're already playing All Flesh Must Be Eaten so we're kind of set.

splatoon is a kid's video game with a very large adult audience
Veeky Forums's splatoon audience, as you'd expect, sexualizes the kids with squid hair

They're kids that are also squids and they battle with ink and water and friendship and tentacle suckers and I can't stop pooping plz sen hjalp

I ~have~ been accused of being a squidfiddler.

But no, it's not my magical realm.

Splatoon is Nintendo's take on a post-apocalyptic third person shooter. But rule 34 applies to everything, so there's a fuckton of squid diddling doodles everywhere.

...

skeletons, just wave after wave of skeletons, Big ones, small ones, animal ones, all kinds of skeletons. when the party eventually gets to where they're coming from they find a portal into deepRot

>based on your pictures
Which pictures tell you it's his magical realm? How?

>fuckton of squid diddling doodles everywhere.
user, how many files in your SFW splatoon folder? Just the SFW one.

It might be your magical realm. As the opera goes, “Weiche, Wotan, weiche!”

Starting in October, I'm gonna run a Shadow of the Demon Lord campaign set in Innistrad after the events of Eldritch Moon.

My entire folder is sfw. There are some beach themed images though.

>It might be your magical realm
It's not. I know what my magical realm is. Splatoon is no where close.

Forgot my image. Please forgive this transgression, oh elegan/tg/entlemen.

This used to be such a great board

/pol/ welcome t_d with open arms.

yeah, sure it isn't

I believe that Splatoon isn't your magical realm.

But have you honestly never masturbated to a Splatoon character?

Pumkins are stupid. It is impossible to create a a serious BBEG that uses pumpkins.

never heard about inklings before (If you can write their cool points I would be immensely glad) but i like the idea of creatures fearing water. Witch from Oz feels rarely are met in D&D.

>"They call him the Harvestman. He came out of the fields out near Wiltburrough a few years back, passed through a farmer's cottage on the way there and butchered everyone inside. As far as we can tell he's some kind of nature spirit locals used to sacrifice children to for good harvests, until some priests came through in the 14th century and sealed him off somewhere up in those hills. Something broke him out and he's been lording over the surrounding towns ever since. He demands children every equinox, or starts making examples, and the first few were bloody enough that he gets his sacrifices on time. >We're sending you in disguised as the owners of a new farmstead.Your orders are to find what Harvestman has done to the children, determine if any of the townsfolk are responsible for his freedom, find the location of his cave, and re-seal him. Don't go for the kill unless absolutely necessary, I don't want to know what the death of a nature spirit will do the surrounding area. If you've got to, be ready for a lot of hungry people. Any questions?"

Sounds boring as fuck, dude.

...

Take a wild guess

I'm going to continue the unknown armies campaign we haven't played since January.

>But have you honestly never masturbated to a Splatoon character?
I can say I honestly never have. I like porn of actual women, not cartoons.

Well they're small sized squid that have a special ink that they can spray everywhere. This is slows down their enemies, and they can swim through it at a faster speed. They can also turn into a humanoid form and change their color/become optically camouflaged at will.

Borderline fucking witchcraft how quickly it changes the texture of its body so fluently.

get out

I thought of beings made completely from ink. Like in big libraries with hand written books a ritual is performed and slowly all the ink from the books flow together and form an inkling.

as most book sis about humans it takes a human form. And knows everythign that was written in those books. Large quantities of water will dissolve and kill him.

This is exactly what has been wrong with this board ever since moot left. Left and right you get people accusing one another from being from reddit, throwing around buzzwords like 'pedo', and generally shitting up the board with mostly useless bait threads.

Please go back to wherever you came from and stay there. Your ilk should have been culled from the site the first post you made.

Tell us more about the golden days where Moot's hand graced us all, senpai.

I like this. Consider it stolen.

Possibly have it happen in large magical libraries on accident from time to time.

I wonder if Inkoings have horror films about being processed and melted into ink and penned across hundreds of pages.

>your games

Can you masturbate before posting? Please?

Mein neger. Innistrad is a really good setting to run RPGs in.

My group just finished a year and a half long Innistrad campaign set during EM. It was lots of fun.

Any link where I can read the EM events in a condensed but interesting form? Like does 1d4chan have a page on it?

>the defensive reaction of a creature called the vampire squid is to, essentially, cover itself in a spiky blanket until the scary thing leaves

>I like porn of actual women, not cartoons.

It gets even worse user. I'm married. And she's a qt3.14

Your body pillow isn't your wife faggot.

I sometimes feel like this board is too obsessed with its glory days, like a 30 year old man remembering his highschool quarterback days.

>Something joyful and stupid can't be used to create something sinister
How does it feel to be imaginationless and a hack.

It wasn't really different, at least in the last few years he was around. But he had obviously been with Veeky Forums since the beginning, and I think we did lose a bit of something of our identity when he left. Maybe not the moment he was gone, but in the time after.

It's more like, a minute ago you were having an awesome conversation with some good friends on the bus, now you find yourself surrounded by three year olds screaming, parrotting memes they don't understand, and puking everywhere. Now the whole bus smells like shit and cheap talcum powder, and some of the older kids decided it was okay to piss in their super soakers and hose the place down. The bus is still going, it's driver put a brick on the gas pedal and bailed. The cops are outside, sirens wailing as the vehicle flies from the highway onto a poorly maintained dirt road. The AC is broken.

One by one your friends have bailed, but somehow, when you try to stand up and take the plunge, you find your seatbelt is stuck. Why are you wearing a seatbelt on a bus?

One of the toddlers is now threatening you with a shard of glass.

thats actually kinda sexy

Is this an analogy of Veeky Forums or Veeky Forums? Either way why instead or remembering "le golden age" you try to turn Veeky Forums into what it was.
>inb4 mods
>inb4 newfags
>inb4 /pol/

It's hard to do? That seems like the simplest answer to me. It can be daunting as one or even a few people trying to make a board with hundreds of thousands change their tune.

This year I'm gonna dress up and pretend to be someone happy

It's sort of like a short-lived plant-based version of a golem. But in order to animate such organic material that's not really meant to move like flesh, you have to force a particularly wicked nature spirit into it in order to force that sort of animation. This makes it cruel or maliciously tricky, and gives it supernatural powers that a golem couldn't call upon because of the nature spirit's magical nature - being able to disappear into a puff of smoke, turning into vines and crawling under a door or up a wall, etc.

The problem is that it seems like the vast majority of Veeky Forums is now insistant on no lomger actually trying to improve the board and seems content to pointlessly wallow in it's own filth. The other half is too stupid to even realize it was better once.

If MAYBE half of the posters on Veeky Forums at this very moment could consistently band together to improve it some positive change might be had, but in all likelihood less then a hundredth of them will and with no way to communicate with each other reliably no organization can happen, no matter how small.

Fake it 'till you make it, user!

In the end, its all we can do to just keep trying. Perhaps one day we'll have a Veeky Forums worth talking of again.

Really I think we all need to learn to live and let live. Don't respond to things you don't like, unless they're a rules violation or illegal, in which case just report them. Don't argue with people who are obviously just being inflammatory. Just, be good people, you know?

Exactly. Debate is all well and good, but as the recent spat of GRRM threads filled with vitriol show, sometimes its better to just pass it by.

>it's not the pol invasion
You say it like it's a bad thing. About 2 years ago this board used to have non-ironic posters bitching about the Kingdom Death Pinup models.

What was the name of the setting Veeky Forums was making with a black sun? I wanted to read search it for ideas.

Thanks, stealing for my next Delta Green game.
