Thread for TTRPG discussion and organization.

# What is a TTRPG?
TTRPG, sometimes TRPG, stands for TableTop Role-Playing Game. It includes big names, like D&D, and much less heard of ones, like Song of Swords. The rule systems run from extremely thorough, with rules for things like how many Thai chilli peppers you can eat before getting ill, to so broad as to be nearly nonexistent, with only basic guidelines on how to play. In almost all systems, the key component that sets it apart from video game RPGs is the presence of the Dungeon Master, Game Master, Referee, etc. They help to adjudicate edge cases not covered by rules and create exceptions to the rules in favour of fun, meaning a TRPG has much more freedom of action than a normal RPG.

# Where do I play?
Generally, TTRPGs, especially niche ones without large player bases, are played in-person, but there are also sites and apps that allow you to play over the internet and find groups. The biggest one right now is probably roll20; signing up is free, and as a player, you never need to pay for anything. Other applications include FoundryVTT (paid for by a GM), Maptools (free), AstralVTT (free), and Fantasy Grounds (expensive, but very nice). Some groups even play on Tabletop Simulator, which has the added bonus of letting you play poker or Life before a session starts or if someone flakes.

There's also the potential to show up at a gaming store; if you live in the US, Canada, or Europe, there's plenty of those around too. Gaming stores are in-person, obviously, but they also often boast long-time, highly experienced and confident game masters who are knowledgable at how to best cater to newbies trying to enter the hobby. There are many websites online to help you find game stores near you.

# Where do you get the rulebooks?
You can buy them from places like drivethrurpg, or you can pirate them from https://thetrove.net/. As a new player, you often don't need very many books; both Shadowrun and Pathfinder have relatively complete wikis online with all the setting-agnostic information you need, and Pathfinder even has a setting wiki so there's no reason to buy the books for their content.

# I don't like medieval fantasy settings…
Neither do a lot of other players! Many rule systems are relatively setting agnostic; Pathfinder, for example, has pre-published adventures that take place in WWI Russia, one that lets you play as pirates, and another featuring laser guns. Alternate settings such as Ravenloft and Eberron are compatible with the rules and feature entirely different settings. There are also dedicated systems, such as the fairly popular Shadowrun and Call of Cthulhu, that take place in a Cyberpunk setting.

# I can't into roleplay!
Everyone can roleplay! You don't need to be an amazing actor or even a passable one to roleplay, especially if you join a more experienced group. As time goes on and you become more comfortable with the system and setting, roleplaying comes naturally. Experienced players can also help to coax some roleplaying out of shy or uncertain players. Don't be scared to try!

Many groups don't even use voice or video chat, and many of those that do only use it for out of character or combat chatter.

# If I wanted to play, where should I begin?
D&D 5e has the largest ttrpg community right now, but is often considered too rules-light and rather boring to actually play. This same lightness is what makes it popular, though, and it is very friendly to new players trying to learn how to roleplay; the rules are extremely simple to understand and you can focus on the character more than the rules, although it is restrictive and some concepts are not viable in 5e.

Pathfinder is also very popular, and is based on an older, beloved version of D&D, 3.5e. It is rules heavy and sometimes considered difficult for new players because of the high levels of system mastery demanded for optimal play; however, many groups do not play at a high level. Pathfinder is notable for having somewhere between five times to twenty times the content of D&D 5e, depending on how you count, and extreme amounts of homebrew and third party add-ons. Because there is so much content and so much homebrew, almost any concept is viable in Pathfinder, with the right system knowledge to bring it to life. Pathfinder is not technically free, but nearly the entire game system is licensed under the Open Gaming License, which means it is essentially open source and free-to-use. The entire game rules, sans the organization of the books and setting details like gods, is available here: https://www.d20pfsrd.com/

Shadowrun (5e) is a good choice for anyone looking for something besides bog-standard dragons and liches. It is a game that takes place in a cyberpunk dystopia in 2070 by default, and includes cyberware, car chases, and machine guns. It does not use a level system, which can give it a grittier feel than both D&D and Pathfinder.

Fate is an extremely lightweight system that has the advantage of being legitimately free for those averse to pirating, as it is pay-what-you-want. It is not friendly to new game masters, but its simplicity means that it is easy to learn and teach for players. If you can find a group playing Fate that welcomes new players, it isn't a bad place to start.

Call of Cthulhu is exactly what it sounds like, and is probably the system here that has the least ability to be lifted from its setting. It is the originator of SAN points and has an aesthetic that is very rare outside of CoC. This also means that groups can be harder to find outside of dedicated fansites for the game and setting.

>>904
Not in particular, no. There's mechanics to simulate travel hazards, cold weather, etc. and I believe there's an alternate ruleset to represent stress. If you want really gritty down-to-earth stuff, though, Pathfinder is probably not the system because like all iterations of D&D it's very much based on the high fantasy genre.

I'm running D&D for another imageboard currently so I guess I can ask stuff here and hope they don't see it.
We were playing a one shot and without getting into unnecessary details they ended up using a random magic item I rolled for to travel to another plane to escape a bad situation, which I think is really cool even if I didn't plan for it. We ended the session there since it was about the time we normally stop anyway. They said they wanted to travel to the feywilds, which is something I had to look up since I don't really know much about D&D lore like that. Apparently it's some forgotten realms thing, but I'm not running forgotten realms so I don't really have to use that plane as is.
So basically I need to make up a plane that's more or less my world's equivalent to the feywilds (or the next closest thing), and somehow figure out if and how they can get back and how to make that interesting. So does anyone here have any fun ideas on how to have an adventure returning from another plane?

First thought - chaotic neutral witch that players have to win over to get portal opened.

Anonymous 05/25/20 (Mon) 17:37:17 No.909

>>906
For plane-travelling, you could always go the Planescape: Torment route. Any one place can be a portal to another plane: a doorway, someone's basement stairs, the space between two buildings, etc… Anything can be the "key" to open it. Humming a specific song, holding a specific item, feeling a specific emotion. it's basically a scavenger hunt, but as a player I think it would be pretty fun

Anonymous 05/25/20 (Mon) 19:22:31 No.910

>>906
Wow people are actually discussing stuff! I was worried the thread would just kind of fall flat haha
>somehow figure out if and how they can get back and how to make it interesting
A very important question here is actually what level the PCs are at and what the party looks like. If they're low level I would just straight up recommend using mundane hazards like unpredictable weather, areas of reversed gravity, and so on on the path to a fae gate. If they're high level you can make the fae realm very easy to leave, but difficult to control where you end up, so they need to go find someone who knows how to form a stable gate. Hell, Gensokyo is pretty much the Feywild, so just plop Cirno in as an enemy and make Junko the sage.

Anonymous 05/25/20 (Mon) 20:21:38 No.911

>>908
The problem then is the players can just kill the witch. But there can be other ways to get back, and I think there definitely should be inhabitants here that know how to travel across planes so this is a good idea. The people here would probably be pretty eccentric and interesting and probably high level
>>909
This seems cool but could also spiral out of control, if there's more portals to more planes that's more planes I have to figure out. It sounds super cool in theory but a lot of work maybe, although I guess it depends on how you do it. I'm tempted to make a mini hex-crawl style thing with a small area of hexes figured out so there can be hidden portals around in some hexes.
>>910
They're level 5, except a multi-class who's 4/4 (this is 2e so it works differently). The thing they used to plane travel was a staff of the magi, which in theory can cast plane travel again but it's out of charges. I did say to them that for simplicity and balance reasons we'll just say that the staff can't be recharged even though it normally can, but they seem to want to try recharging it anyway so maybe they forgot I said that. I'm unsure if I should let them, if they do then it wouldn't be hard for them to return but I'd have to figure out where in the prime material plane they end up in, since I'm not sure if they can just pick a specific location like a teleport spell
Also thinking of the Feywild as like Gensokyo makes me want to use it much more, I'll have to read more about it

Anonymous 05/25/20 (Mon) 21:12:13 No.912

>>911
Oh wow 2e, for some reason I imagined you were in 5e.
Well if they want to recharge it, I don't see why they can't be allowed. Just say that yes, you can recharge it, but it's not as easy as you think because here in this highly magically charged realm you have to go to this place with these materials and the help of these people to do this ritual which requires so-and-so skills.

How many pb for pirates?

Anonymous 10/09/20 (Fri) 07:07:16 No.1040

>>1039
20 PB, any race below 15 RP (all standard races)

Background Skills and Elephant in the Room is in effect, no other houserules; 2 traits, 1 campaign trait (see the player's guide).

Standard starting money; note that the gear you buy will be taken from you at the beginning of the game until you get it back, except for one small, easily hidden item such as a single lockpick, a spell component pouch, or a holy symbol.

I'm not banning SoP/SoM but I'm also not encouraging it, so it's up to you. I encourage *not* playing PoW, because from last campaign I've found that people don't always remember what everything does.

Post your sheets and your character art (not the token, the full art) in the thread and I'll work on importing the stats into Foundry.

Speaking of sheets, though
Minato, you're missing 1 skill point (Skilled human racial trait, unless you traded it away) and should know four more spells (you start with spells equal to 3 + your Intelligence modifier, which doesn't count the Ray of Frost cantrip that you can always cast). You should have 7 base HP, as you have +1 from your Constitution modifier.

You should also have either one more HP or one more skill point, unless you're going for the Human Wizard-specific favored class bonus, in which case you know five more spells, not four.

You also haven't chosen your arcane bond, now that I look at it. It can be either an item or a familiar, although theoretically speaking you're not supposed to start with a familiar and instead get one on board; however, if you have an *aquatic* familiar (e.g. octopus) instead of a normal one, I'd let you start with it. If you want a bonded item, I strongly suggest you start with that as your 'easily hidden item'.

My friends want me to DM a game of 5e for them. I'm very inexperienced but I'm having fun writing lore and races for my stupid made up continent. The hardest thing for me to come up with so far is finding a balance between my own making things up and still allowing a lot of player freedom and the expected D&D experience. For example, I want to give my elves something unique other than their traditional trance and magical sleep immunity but I'm unsure what would make sense. Lore-wise I thought it would be fun if they were extraterrestrial in origin, maybe from the moon?

Starting as a GM by running a homebrew setting is like starting as a sculptor by creating a marble statue of yourself. It can be done, but it takes a lot of work and you're going to feel bewildered. Best advice I can give is to try to run a little less homebrew. Focus more on writing the setting and less on designing the game. Aesthetic and lore changes to the game are great and can make your game feel unique, but once you start to change how the game plays, it can fall apart very fast.

Instead of thinking "how could I change the racial traits of elves", think about "what gods could I connect the elves to?" Start with what the game gives you (elven weapon training and trance) and work backwards. Perhaps your elves are holy warriors blessed by a god of conquest, and this blessing gives them a natural feel for melee weapons and the ability to spend less time asleep (more time punching). Perhaps your orcs are partially undead or fungal, so the half-orc "relentless endurance" feature is more like a "back from the dead" feature.

5e is… not a great system, but it is fairly robust and balanced. I'd say work with what the game gives you and change the flavor text.

Thanks for the advice, I'll probably put a hold on the cultures and races and history stuff and focus more on like… "here's a goal and here are some obstacles, go wild".

I was thinking maybe all the PCs live in the same small village/town, and some kind of big monster has been encroaching on it, wrecking peoples houses. It's proved too much trouble for the NPCs in town to manage. In order to save their own homes from being destroyed they decide to take it into their own hands, and discover that everyone is blaming an eccentric wizard who lives up on the hill. The players can head straight into the monsters lair/dungeon and kill it themselves, or they can trust the townsfolk and kill/drive the wizard out of town. Either option will result in the monster leaving them alone. But if they investigate with the wizard they will find out that he has, in ignorance of what they actually are, been using the monsters eggs (which are laid in trees and look like fruit) to make potions. This has been what prompted the monster to attack the town, so a peaceful solution can be obtained where they simply convince the wizard to knock it off. If they discover the truth of the eggs and still decide to kill the beast they'll get some cool potions made for them, in exchange for the moral cost of killing an endangered monster.

>5e is… not a great system
Yeah I don't like it much compared to pathfinder/3.5 but the people I'd be running for have zero TTRPG experience, and 1 of them particularly "just wants to have adventures and play the game" ('play the game' meaning not read rulebooks and have to do lots of chargen) so, I think it's an alright compromise.

This is a really good way to start a campaign! It gives the players a common goal that cannot be avoided, a reason to work as a group, and it sets up immediate action for them to dive into. Great first adventure, let us know how it goes!

There's a trap for new GMs that is to homebrew a ton of setting and make an original world. The secret that nobody wants to tell you is essentially that nobody cares unless you make them care, and the way to make them care is actually to set aside the homebrew and worldbuilding for a second and think about the campaign you're looking to run.

Your starting idea is actually pretty good, I like it, it's very nice for a new GM. Before starting though I would make sure if your players are all looking to play heroes or whatever. It changes what sorts of generic adventures you can give them.

5e is not a good system but it is an incredibly good beginner system for players because the basic logic in use carries over to most crunch-based systems. With that said it's actually pretty hard to homebrew for as an inexperienced GM because the numbers are so incredibly tightly constrained that changing them at all creates problems. If you're going to homebrew I recommend doing nothing but giving advantage/disadvantage for now.

A bit of advice: when in combat, past the first few fights (when the main focus needs to be to make sure the players know how their abilities work), add in wind-up attacks. As in, on the turn of the PLAYER being targetted, tell them "the orc chief roars and heaves his axe above his head with both hands. His veins bulge in exertion as he prepares to bring the axe down…", giving the player the choice to either fuck off out of the way (and not attack) or attack but get hit with a heavy blow that e.g. knocks him back if he fails a strength save. When you're more experienced you can probably start making more advanced homebrews but these are fairly easy to balance and simple to create, while being more engaging than just "I walk up and hit you, oh, I hit, you take uhhh 8 damage." At the same time, don't overdo it; speed is absolutely the most important thing in combat, esp. in 5e where there's just not too much decisions about the character sheet going around.

>Great first adventure, let us know how it goes!
Thanks! It went pretty well, I ended up prepping way more than I needed to since getting everyone's characters made and explaining how everything works took a long time. Group said they had a great time, which is all I care about. I fell into first-person RPing for most NPCs fairly naturally, but it's very hard for me to ad-lib dialogue for certain characters. People seemed to enjoy interacting with each other and the NPCs, and one of them is already attached to the town blacksmith. I'm glad I picked 5e because even with the simplified rules, I still am doing a lot of reminding people of things. Which dice to roll where, what's a skill, what's a save, what's the difference between attack and damage rolls, nudging people towards using their bonus actions in combat, etc. etc.

Yeah 5e is very good for new players since its actions and stuff are simple but clearly defined and there's almost no numbers to crunch

Forgot to mention it regarding my DMing adventure, but why is it that new players always want to play the weirdest possible races? I managed to talk my players out of it thankfully, but still 3/4 of them wanted to be "a whale person", a centaur, and a skeleton respectively. I suspect it has something to do with people who are uncomfortable roleplaying wanting to shift the brunt of making their character unique onto their race instead of thinking of them as actual, well, characters. Not to shit on my friends or anything of course, I only say this because it took a bit of guiding to get people thinking about things like backstories and personality traits beyond just "Well it says my race is elf so I'm a tree hippy or something".

Easy new player trap to fall into.
A whale person though, really?

Centaur and skeleton could potentially be the basis for a decent story ngl, especially if the skeleton rides on the centaur, but both races are broken as shit and also just weird.

If you want to go really balls to the wall have them roll for their character, like the entire thing, and then construct their backstory around what they rolled. Roll for race, roll for gender, roll for personality 3d1000 on http://www.roleplayingtips.com/1000-npc-traits/ and hell why not roll for age. Only works if your players are accommodating but rolling for stuff on tables is its own sort of fun. The only reason I don't suggest rolling for class is because that's actually heavy mechanics and not everyone wants to play the same classes.

It's only until they get used to the system. Then the PCs can be whatever they want.

It may unironically be dead. I start my Masters program this week and am expecting twins in two more after.

We shall see. I haven't really been invested in pirates to begin with which probably explains a lot about why the quality of the campaign suffers (I don't know about pirates and don't care to find out). I don't like killing games but it's been quite a while since the original group got together and scheduling is becoming a bigger and bigger problem. Perhaps another timeslot works better.

Yes, I did get that feeling. Unfortunately.

Since someone doesn't want to continue, I don't think I will be running, at least not for a while. Perhaps in a few months once things settle down a little I might see if anyone still on sushi is interested in a game, but for now, campaign is over.

I hope you continue to explore the genre (?). If you're ddb then I can really only apologize since you came on at a time when the original group was fragmenting, then I had neither the time nor the drive to focus on the new one. If not, well, still, I hope you at least enjoyed the first campaign.

There's plenty more DMs more skilled than me, especially in English, and plenty of players looking for GMs. I do encourage you all to be bold in trying to run if you're at all interested. Until next time.

While it's sad for me to hear, it's totally understandable. As someone that was playing with you since the very start you got me back into a hobby that I only ever interacted with a bit in school with 2E, and since then I've been able to get friends IRL into it as well. I'm gonna have fun bringing in my old characters as NPCs when I DM. So yeah I'm very thankful for your efforts and I had a ton of fun with all the campaigns we did. I'm always down to play more if ever you're able to!
