This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

How We’ve Changed TTRPG Worlds
« on: September 07, 2020, 04:03:06 PM »
In TTRPGs we all (for the most part) play heroes! We fight evil and we save the day, but for those who are in long-running campaigns or play in settings like Suzerain.
[/color]What’s the biggest change or affect you/your party has had in a TTRPG?  (be it scripted campaign event or ‘party-gone-wild’ events that the GM has had to deal with! :D )[/size]

I'm running the 5E conversion of B1: In Search of the Unknown.


The players are shipping Rogahn and Zelligar.


Yeah, it's gonna be a LONG campaign...

Hm.  Well.  Probably at the hands of my wife's lead character, who after seventeen real years is not only the most powerful PC in the 40 years of my campaign but one of the world's most powerful wizards.  In the biggest naval battle in the world's history, against the Armada of Badness, she saved the Good Guy Allied Fleet from destruction (some 400 ships worth) by witching up the Mother of All Windstorms and wafting them all to safety.  (The elven emperor, with a dozen archmages, followed up with a mass smackdown on the aforementioned AoB.)
This was a cool site, until it became an echo chamber for whiners screeching about how the "Evul SJWs are TAKING OVAH!!!" every time any RPG book included a non-"traditional" NPC or concept, or their MAGA peeners got in a twist. You're in luck, drama queens: the Taliban is hiring.
