  • If you feel you're getting your money's worth from just reading the stuff then you're fine. Though if you really do want to actually play games using them I recommend finding a group and doing so, either in person or online. This community has an LFG section attached to it if you don't know where to start.

  • What system did you use? First thing coming to my mind would be D20 modern since it's basically an officially published hack of 3e D&D, so the rules wouldn't be too foreign to anybody familiar with 5e, and it has actual rules specifically for car chases.

  • This is one of those classic movies that should be used as a reference when someone asks you to explain what D&D is. Heroes on a quest, or multiple overlapping ones in the case of Westley and Indigo, and the adventures they have along the way.

    Another great example with a solid party dynamic among the main cast is Star Wars.

  • PF2e actually exists because of D&D 5e. 5e is a streamlined and (most people believe) improved version of 3.5, which is exactly what PF1e is under a different label. But to appeal to their rebellious hipster demographic the new PF had to be different and innovative. So you get a bunch of overly complex rules for options and the sake of just being like D&D but still totally not D&D. The result is a decent game that definitely isn't 5e because it intentionally trades off most of the streamlining that makes 5e more approachable for the sake of complexity and options.

    Basically it's a bunch of pretentious hipster BS.

  • Bring on the hunters. GeeBee has unhealthy emotional attachment issues, a roll target of 5, and a bandolier of man portable nuclear warheads. In situations requiring stealth or close combat the Davy Crockett weighs a hundred pounds unloaded and would make a very effective bludgeoning device (as an anime girl she is of course strong enough to wield it as such). Or she could always just decide "f- it" and go out in a blaze of glory because nukes. Basically she embodies as personality traits all the ideologies of a circa 1960 Cold War superpower that would motivate them to invent a man portable nuclear weapon with a blast radius greater than it's maximum range.

    Also I think my hair would get me the connections to requisition a Blackhawk.

  • Yandere, American (I assume this means either blonde or red white and blue), 5, named Gun Bunny. Personal defense weapon is a Carl Gustav 84mm recoilless rifle, unless the GM allows an M28 Davy Crocket (literally a nuclear bazooka).

    It took me about five seconds to create this character, and now I kind of want to actually play the game.

  • Okay that explains her name, I guess... assuming the folks at the orphanage also called her "red one" for twelve years.

    And after reaffirming her stereotypical rogueness with the backstory, I don't think she has any right to complain about the paladin suspecting her of legally questionable behavior in the last panel.

    Also I can't be the only one wondering if Lady Laeral bears a striking resemblance to a certain Tiefling and has a story about being forced to give up a child for reasons that have only recently been resolved or something else like that. This kind of screams "character development arc."

  • Perception check fell short of noticing the do-me eyes? Or was it a low Persuasion roll to convey flirtatious intent? At a guess I would imagine Konsi has a high charisma score and clerics do get access to Persuasion as a proficiency. Then again I've had cleric characters with both of those things botch rolls that resulted in violence I was trying to avoid, so a failed flirtation isn't the worst outcome, even if it's frustrating.
