Players attempt to mummify themselves to better infiltrate an undead casino

>Players attempt to mummify themselves to better infiltrate an undead casino

How would you, the DM, handle this.

"How are you trying to mummify yourselves"

>Assume the players mean desiccation and organ removal
>Explain to them that their characters have died

Pour water over the face of the mummy?

Can the undead smell life?

>Get X-carded
>Forced to allow it

Have them describe how exactly they plan to mummify themselves and have them roll associated skill checks with DCs assigned based on their relative difficulty.
If you'd read the rules of literally any role-playing book it would have explained this.

>associated skill checks

No one has the mummify skill though.
Dex check then?

It's obviously a disguise check you fucking morons.

Yeah, nah.

>skill checks and DCs
>literally any role-playing book
DnD-only plebs are vermin.

>Players go to a sweat lodge to dry out their bodies
>The shed sweat is collected in a vessel

For what purpose?

I ask them to describe in GREAT detail what they're doing and how they feel, because they've stumbled upon my magical realm and I will not let this opportunity pass me by.

Don't "nah" me you fucking idiot. Would you prefer bluff?

I can't believe she just has her hair down while doing that. That's a really easy way to get your scalp torn out if her hair were to get caught in that machine.

>Do you have large amounts of cloth?
>If so roll knowledge to see what else you know about mummies to see what else you need
And once they have all the components they think they need have them roll whatever disguise or costume making check is appropriate, to make a disguise

How does one even get a mummification fetish

Int based sleight of hand for skillful wrapping to allow freedom of movement. Various knowledge checks for proper hieroglyphs and positioning to fool people. Wisdom based rolls to avoid offending whatever god(s) manage this shit. Disguise fits somewhere in there.

>using this level of lazy abstraction just so you can skip ahead to the fighting part
Yeah, nah.

>Unwrappable

>Lost in modernity / Reliant on you as a guide
>Holds ancient secrets / Has seen unimaginable sights

>Dead flesh that doesn't rot

The mummy has many interesting aspects.

t. OP

Faggot, the point of a system is to have mechanics for handling general things, not to have a specific roll for fucking everything. The system is a supplement, not the main part of the game. The disguise check is just one part of it, obviously the players will soend most of the time trying to figure out how exactly they'll mummify themselves. The roll is just an afterthought so it's more than just "i guess we succeed lol".

I understand the mummy it's self as a fetish, but why the process of mummification?
Or does that just come with it?

Oh. I see. It's a little different I think.
I assume the appeals of bondage play a part plus various other aesthetic considerations.

>>>Constricted
>>Unwrappable
>>Ancient / from another world
>>Lost in modernity / Reliant on you as a guide
>>Holds ancient secrets / Has seen unimaginable sights
>>Can curse your enemies
>>Can maybe make you immortal

Now I want my own cute pharaoh waifu to recover from the depths of the desert and take her into modern life.

You could teach her how the toilet works etc.
It'd be cute :3

Now I'm remembering that one anime with the tiny mummy, it was adorable

Sounds fun if failure prone. I'd have then give me a loose description of what they're doing (to better note failure points) and ask them to make any relevant ability checks or whatever the system calls for (presumably something multipart to better involve everyone). I'd also advise them to prep a back up plan, because shit's likely to fall apart somewhere down the line.

The point of a system is to handle conflicts. I'd ask the players how they plan on going about doing this. If I think it's convincing I'll let them pass. If I think that it's not entirely convincing, I'll give them some sort of roll related to their methodology and set the DC to what I feel is appropriate. Wrapping yourself in toilet paper will net a higher DC than visiting an embalmer to try to fake it as best they can.

Secondly, how much story and campaign significance is placed on visiting the casino? If the whole point of the current story beat is the infiltration of this casino ask for something more comprehensive, if it's just a quick fetch-quest for something much larger and more interesting, lower the barrier to entry since this isn't the part of the story you want players to spent most of their time doing. This isn't rocket science.

Basically a dex check for whoever is wrapping the bandages around the PCs, and con checks from every PC when the mummifaker shoves a pungent bottle of formaldyhyde up their anus "so they smell convincing"

is this a unique take on an egyptian setting?

This webm turned me on. Weirdest boner.

Tell me about the mummy, why does she oil her flesh?

You may have the spider drive.
The heart quickens at the thought of tangled women.
There's only one cure.

This looks unsafe.

Someone post that webm with the corn

Assuming d&d.
Life Sense doesn't care how well you wrap yourself in toilet paper.

Assuming Wod
The mummy laughs at them for dressing like they're in an abbot and Costello movie.

Anything else
I'm gonna need more details on how mumies work in that setting.

Did she die?

Are actually planning on turning themselves into mummies, organ removal and all? With a necromancer npc or pc. They succeed on a medicine/arcane raise dead check but its a one way trip. They can't un-mummified unless serious magic or mcguffian is used.
No necromancer, kill the first idiot for their stupidity. Make them come up with new plan.

If they plan on just wrapping themselves up in bandages. Roll disguise check, bonus points if anyone is proficient with the disguise kit, cover themselves in undead flesh,life concealment magic,etc. Then its deception/performance checks all the way.

>X-carded
huh?

Is this real OP? Does Japan have some sore of game show where the contestants are wrapped up like mummies? What happens after the machine is done wrapping?

Yes it was a game show where they have celebrities answer trivia as they're wrapped. It was a breathable material and they unraveled them shortly after they lost. The clip actually leaves out the part where the sarcophagus slams shut around them.

Many boners were had by me when this show was on. Not important but I thought the thread should know.

This is literally my only solution. I’m terrible at logic problems but somewhat good at story logic

Tell me. I need to be cured.

They're trying to mummify themselves, not disguise themselves as mummies.

It's no use having an actual discussion in a fetish thread.

...that's just an unnecessary extra layer of abstraction. If you've got an issue with something, you pull the source player aside and you talk it out like reasonable people.

It's a detection tool. If someone brings up x cards, they're probably a person you don't want at your table.

Even then, it's unnecessary. Why wouldn't one advertise the lack of x-card use to weed them out even before the game begins?

That still requires the concept of x-card.

X-cards are a fucking meme, I've literally never seen a single reference to them outside of /tg. Hell, I though we were in the clear but apparently you faggots needed to dust that one off.

oh my
are people that soft now?

Welcome to 2016, user.

Again, x-cards are designed for con-games where you're playing with a bunch of strangers, nobody expects you to use them in actual play

And tumblr as it sounds, having a "I'm not cool with this" is a fine concept for con games

Beat me to it.

Anyone who plays games at cons deserves to be made uncomfortable at the very least.

They can just leave the table instead of being a disruptive cunt.

Alright, describe how it works in your system where you evidently don't need to roll.

can't they say "no"?

>Its normally used a convention games since GM's cannot account for the thickness of their players skins. Makes running settings which can be considered "sexy" such as an action game set in a banana republic difficult.

Its foreveriel delitized?

Mummuies are rare things. And probably they allready know each other. Anyway expect alot of questions about your old kingdom and in which era you ruled it.

>are people that soft now?
NOPE

There are people that tell bushilt they dont believe in to get people to do stuff. Imagine a father telling santa claus is real and give a nintendo siwtch to good childrens to make sure his son go to school everyday.

Those people don't believe at what they say and so will have to do a mess when they try to explain "his beliefs".

The normal people that believe at those guys, basically done the equivalent of trying to make sense of d&d rules/spirit.

>And tumblr as it sounds, having a "I'm not cool with this" is a fine concept for con games
We have that.

It's called saying "I'm not cool with this."

I somehow forgot that existed.

I wish I knew how I managed that.

in wider sense of "people"

No, the x-card thing is literally just an excuse to have a talk about sensitivity and inclusiveness.

I'm serious - read the open doc made by the guy who created them, he himself says actually using x-cards are less important than having a talk about them.

You know "meme" does not mean "thing I don't like or don't believe in," right?

where do you think we are?

A website whose users really should know the definition of a meme. It's not a generic term for a thing you dislike, it's a humorous image, video, piece of text, etc., that is copied (often with slight variations) and spread rapidly by Internet users.

Most undead have some form of life sense. Anything that can drain life usually has the strongest. I often run it as a light that the dead can see and wish to crowd around for warmth, since they feel so cold.

Even the non-draining kind don't like that like because it upsets their peaceful slumber they have when undisturbed.

>that definition is actually in the fucking dictionary
I'm still confused by the fact that outsiders know internet culture exists.
