Funny dice?? Like those rare ones Monty Python wants to use such as d14 d16 d18 and d30?
ОтветитьGhouls are the biting-propagating monsters rather than zombies, but I also prefer that
ОтветитьThe art is amazing
ОтветитьGoodman Games is lucky to have you on board, Bob. I love GG stuff for its old-school appeal, and I think your design chops match their vibe nicely.
ОтветитьIirc the concept of the Paladin comes from Poul Anderson's "Three Hearts and Three Lions", which takes place during the reign of Charlemagne.
ОтветитьThanks for answering my question.
ОтветитьThe paladins were the elite knights of Charlemagne, a real king with a lot of folklore and myth around him.
Cleric is used a bit in Catholic circles.
Sorry to hear about that "cleric"al error.
Excited to hear about that Goodman games news.
What is Public subscriber; is that different from normal subscription?
ОтветитьWhen I first heard you guys, I was like "Holy shit, they have crazy chemistry! Are they dating?"
And then you guys spoke about the "Cleric"al error and it made sense. Congratulations!
How it should be:
Paladin: You make a contract with yourself about an ideal, using that to give your sword power. (like monks)
Cleric: You worship a deity and make vows before your deity in exchange for power.
Warlock: Your body is a storage space for some being's cosmic power, and your body mutates the more power you get.
I feel like it WAS called priest... in 2nd maybe?
ОтветитьI actually have this weird idea of paladins being more like half-bards. Paladins get their power from their dedication, and bards get them from their inspiration (I'm not sure it has to always be art in usual meaning, but it's up to another discussion). Well, there are two different things, but they are both related to what the character feels and believes. This is different from getting powers from deities (clerics and warlocks), nature itself (druids and rangers), or casting innate (sorcerers), and is rather different from using pure knowledge and experience (wizards and artificers).
ОтветитьHey! Thanks for featuring my question, love your take on it. There are a lot of ways to feature prayer in a lot of characters. And I totally get that the table has to be into it.
ОтветитьCleric of the Tetragrammaton! Gun-katas! Amazingly cheesy Christian Bale film Equilibrium.
ОтветитьSo then you could multiclass warlock and cleric but to the same diety.
ОтветитьMy Drow Feylost Death Domain Cleric is Chaotic Neutral and sworn to the Raven Queen.
She isn't a healer type; instead she prefers flanking enemies and annihilating enemies, even using Undead as "Meat Shields/Minions". Only if absolutely necessary does she heal the party, and even then prefers using Herbalism/Medical Kit instead of her magic.
My Astral Elf Anthropologist Oath of Conquest Paladin is also Chaotic Neutral.
Part of her long-term goals is to establish a new Pantheon combining various Dead/Weakened/Lost Deities as well as conquer & form a new Queendom. She will start with Garagos either draining "Red Knight" or merging "Red Knight" with him, (meta-knowledge Ramman is another Dead War Deity so will hopefully find his trace amounts of power/energy and merge that as well). Then continue tracking down lost bits of knowledge & power to also aid her goals.
Finally, the hope is that Queendom will last at least 1,000 years! What's more with Garagos, they will eventually replace Tempus as the strongest War Deity and push Tempus into a lesser rank/role.
Does that smooth and gentle voice belong to smooth gentleman known as Bob the Worldbuilder?
ОтветитьThe only time I hear Cleric nowadays is referring to Islamic clergy. Paladin refers to Charlemagne's twelve greatest knights, people like Roland and Olivier.

ОтветитьPaladin etymologically comes from the same word as palace, so in my worlds it means "head of palace" or "butler". The archetype is called in-world by various other words like templar (warrior of the temple) or sword-saint (saint/prophet with a sword, duh)
Ответитьiirc, the idea of Paladin in English comes from a French legend about Charlemagne's knights
looking it up, its etymology seems to be along the lines of "from the palace", meaning, like, a retainer of an emperor
Looks like Cleric seems to come from the clergy, except determined by chance (?) based on etymology
As a person who LOVES clerics, I really do want to RP that spell preparation time, but I always either forget (since I'm not used to it, I'm not that great with rp stuffs), I feel like nobody cares so I'm wasting folks' time, and I don't want to drag the game down cuz I want to stop all the actually relevant stuff that's going on/being talked about to be like "hey everyone look at what MY character is doing tho", especially since I've already gotten my thunder stolen before when the DM decided to in-character tell me to speed up a lore recap I was giving (explaining things that happened in the campaign with a previous party to the new party, I was the only original left). I always feel bad whenever someone says something, then stops for pause, and then I say something because it seems like they finished, and then they keep talking. I don't want them to think I "interrupted" them on purpose.
And I just KNOW that there's going to be so many moments where I try to describe what my character does, but the DM quickly moves on and so I can't say anything or else I'm being rude. Or I try, but nobody hears me or reacts and I repeat myself and then I look like I'm fishing for a reaction like a comedian who's joke didn't land. I don't want that to happen.
Randomly got you guys recommended to me today and I am pleasantly surprised! Great stuff!
ОтветитьI used to play stronghold 2. My favorite game to cheat and absolutely destroy the enemy.
Ответить2k views: "only 100 people will hear this"
ОтветитьJon Arbuckle!!! If you really need them to do the intended quest, you can slowly implement harder and worse weather conditions so that the cons outweigh the pros of it being so cold outside. But the PCs are fully set on this soup truck endgame, then consider tailoring the adventure to fit that goal! Merchants around Ten-towns could see them as competition, and conflict could ensue. Maybe a rival soup wagon is built, and this one has a cannon on it to blast them away! Maybe the cauldron stops working, and they have to get it fixed. Or the cauldron explodes into a huge Soup Construct that threatens to melt the world causing a huge flood!!!! Anything can happen in D&D, and it's awesome when the fun can fit the story.
ОтветитьMy favorite DnD character "Bright Sun Between Dark Clouds" and only cleric, was a Tabaxi War Cleric of Sharess in 5e, a "cat party war cleric", very fun to play. Sadly the round didn't last very long...
ОтветитьI always felt like a clerics powers came from a worldly god, who people openly worship. and warlocks gain power from "otherworldly" outside forces
