What's not to love about Treaty-Port-esque cities ruled by magocratic syndicates?
Howd's camp is definitely the most compassionate of those of the Six Noble Founders, though it's still very much long-term, big-picture compassionate; "Sacrifice millions to save billions"-type stuff. Daed...
Gonna go all pedantic up in here...
Dead isn't a useful term. It's a convenient term, but it's not really a useful one, because what we consider "dead" will inevitably depend upon the level of medical technology available to us at a given time. Death, in a technical sense, is the permanent and...
Being tagged for me is like being pushed out of bed; I'm always surprised, a little stunned, and never quite sure what's going on, but it's usually always something interesting going on at the time.
The thread for it still exists here...
I got my start in D&D and, despite my profound love for different systems, probably have more actual IRL playtime with it than any other system, 3.5 especially. Pathfinder was a very small but elegant upgrade to 3.5, which might best be called 3.6; it doesn't change much, merely fixes some of...
In response to the "brain in a bag" issue, I don't honestly consider that an issue, myself, but, then, I don't really know what sort of game you're playing. My answer would be, though, that, if you want a character to be better than what a starting character allows, why not just give your...

Seriously, though, I have my criticisms for that, but they're not really relevant right now.
I've been helping someone get a grip on GMing lately and some things I'd throw out there are that a good system is one where you have a lot of tools but a great one is where you can make your...
Sackcloth
"Not if you ask me..." Sackcloth grumbles as he passes near Sage, moving to stop by the ladder, in the shadow of the ship's hull. Wrapping his cloak tight around himself, he retreats into it and slides down the side of the curved exterior wall until his butt rests in the corner it...
Posting for bumpage here: Does Hood bring Sackcloth's hammer?
As for Faerie Healing, it basically lets you use Goblin Fruit on people who'd not normally benefit from it, through whatever method you choose when you gain the merit. Whatever method you choose, be it giving them a goblin fruit...
Y'know, if it weren't for Zach, Sackcloth would be the best doctor in the group.
That would have made this situation really amusing, dramatically speaking.
Edit: This is a random time to do it, too, but as I've come to get to know God-Machine Chronicles and fall in love with it, if you ever...
Sackcloth
The first thing Zach sees of Sackcloth is the brownie's head hanging low between his shoulders. Not alarmed, not angry... Gloomy, perhaps. Confused. Maybe even upset or disappointed. Occasionally it turns into a scowl as he grinds his pebble teeth across one of his lips, clearly...
