My mood for some gritty fantasy in the Warhammer universe is playing up, so I'm checking if there are any such games currently running here on Elliquiy for this.

If not, anybody interested in starting one up.  Whilst I could co-GM, I'd much rather be fully in the player's seat.  I'm equally open for a good group game or for a solo campaign.

Muse

  now here's a game I haven't heard called for in a while. 

  If you find a GM, I'd love a chance to play.

Great to see another interested party Muse!  Though that now makes two of us in search of a game.

Just for the info of any prospective GM, I'm quite interested in playing something along the lines of a Brettonian knight errant or maybe a noble looking to be such a knight.

Something to that involves a significant plot involving Chaos would be great (maybe a collaborative plot between Slaanesh and Tzeentch).  Maybe revolving around a something that threatens to significantly affect the grip of CHaos on the world (like an ability to really cure mutation).

I do have the 1st Edition rules but since your initial career is rolled, there is no assurances you'd get anything that might track to a knight. I'm a stickler for rolling dice for starting careers.

LisztesFerenc

  I gotta admit, the idea of rolling randomly intrigues me, in as sort of "you aren't in control of your destiny" way. Although it does seem that I cannot really plan my background much beyond "I'm an elf".

RubySlippers

No you pick race, roll ability scores, pick a big class group like Warrior picking some skills then roll in your category what you get. Most don't suck that bad and lead to advanced careers in most cases and you can role-play looking for a mentor to enter a specific basic career if you otherwise qualify.

So some is a choice and some is not to start usually its what your parents did or arrange apprentice training for or you fell into.

Lunar Raven

I only have the 2nd Edition books and supplements from my side.

Usually I'm all for rolling random starting career, though in this instance my wants for a Warhammer game are a bit more specific, and the entry classes to the Knight Errant are very few (Knight, Noble, and Squire) so if I do randomly roll and don't end up with one of those... well, there would go my motivation for the game.

  I could handle random generation or selecting careers, but my knowledge of Warhammer lore is a bit patchy. Most of it comes from watching Old World War battle reports.

You know I hate to be a grave digger but I pretty regularly run this game irl.

Very accessible and immediate online chargen, like 3-4 clicks and you're just making minor this-or-thats from there.  System is powerful but simple and lends itself to PCs getting wayyyy fucked up so I'd say nonCon Exotic at least.

I'd love to play this game again, even run it really, but the question would be what type of game, cause it seems to me, it would either be relatively tame sexually, or end up with someone getting tentacleraped by a Slaanesh demon.

Hardly a grave since I keep on taking a peek at it to see if there's any interest, but I can see why, lol.  But even so, my interest in it remains pretty high.  And I know all about how unforgiving the system is - come to think about it, it's one of the most brutal out there - but in that sense, I love it because its rewarding if you've gotten far enough.

I guess its pretty hard not to mention sexual encounters in the Warhammer universe without, at the very least, thinking of Slaanesh and its brood, though that said, there a lot of other things that can happen.  For myself, at least, not every sexual encounter has to be an exploration into some form of perversion (hell, in a world as dark as warhammer, 'glad-to-be-alive-sex' for adventurers would be pretty much the staple), though granted it would be a waste not to take advantage of the potential for darker things.  On the whole, I'm more in favour of sexual encounters being something that comes across my character's path and the decide they want to pursue it; otherwise I'm more interested in story and plot (and I don't mean 'plot' ;D)

Moving back to my original post, I'm still quite interested to play a disgraced Bretonnian noble who's seeking to redeem his name by becoming a grail knight and in the process puts himself on the path to strike a blow against Chaos.  Working to secure a principality in the Border Princes also appeals.

Sexual content wise, I think we'll just have players establish rules of engagement with me and they can work out what shenanigans they wanna occur betwixt themselves.

So, if they are open to\wanna get tentacle raped I keep that in the back of my mind as I craft scenarios and encounters.

Plot wise, I'm highly partial to everyone rolling (semi)randomly, but no reason y'can't choose the Nobleman if y'ave a background all worked out.  I'll figure out a way to get y'all together.

It actually lets you pick a career and still roll the rest. Might be a good idea for Lunar?

That's'what my group always uses to roll chars.

Would it really much matter that I would know damn near nothing of what I was even looking at for what the character generator thing popped out? Kinda feels like a 5E game to me where I am equally clueless about how to make a character.

tl;dr wont have a damn clue what i am doing for making a character but would want to play.

Just follow that silverghost link and click the things you want.  At chargen "Shayalla's Mercy" is swapping out a low roll for the racial average, can only do 1nce, and mouse over the skills\abilities at the bottom to decide which you wanna choose (with dropdowns at teh bottom of the page).

Be sure to export to .pdf wunce it's all done and you've clicked a thingy one for an Advance in whatever cause reloading tends to roll new characters.

You'd just be asked to me at-or-under d100 rolls, mostly.  It's just important to keep in mind the governing stat is halved for the purposes of attempting skills y'don't have.

Are the Gods of Law available for worship in 2nd edition? I always wanted to try out a travelling priest/ess of Arianka who's on an eternal quest to try the keys to the goddess' crystal coffin...

freeko

Ok, I think I hit enough random things to have a pdf show up. What do I do with that pdf thing?

Yeah so sorry homie but you had to hit a few deliberate things while you had the sheet before the .pdf

Namely, click the little button for Shayalla's Mercy (but only one of them) to bump a shit roll up to decent, scroll to the bottom and select your either\or's, and then click an extra free advance.  THEN you .pdf-ify it.

Don't worry tho, these characters are a dime a dozen.

I'd allow it but you'd probably just be a College of Light priest or similar, mechanically.

Arianka is somewhat considered to be a contra-Nurgle minor Chaos deity, so y'may run afoul of either side of the fence on your journeys.  Even if the sect is tolerated by high pubahs of faith in th'Empire, zealous WitcHunters may interpret things rather differently.

Meh, its not like I hit the export button on the sheet into a new window or anything. I hit the mercy button and then I see some numbers that are 10, 5, 0. Are those the free advance things you are talking about?

Primaries stats go up in incraments of 5.

If there's a 0 your career doesn't let the stat grow at all, if there's a 5 it can grow once, if there's a 10 or 15 it can grow twice\thrice.  Click one of them and go up +5\+1 (if advancing a 2ndary characteristique).  That'll be your Free Advance and from now on you buy those advances with units of 100eXP.

Scroll to the bottom and make any choices in those drop downs for things it says "this or that" or "choose 1\2" of.

ok, that seemed like it was painless enough to do.

Now what do I do with the pdf thing this time?

It's your character.  Congrats.

You could potentially buy things at the start of the game with your starting money.

So, yay for my team then?

Is there anything I want to use the 10 money things I have to buy?

ererruz

As a person who never played 2nd edition WH... how long does it generally take to advance in a career and then switch over to something else?

It depends on how tight-fisted the GM is with eXP, but you can pay 200eXP to exit your current career for any other basicareer so long as you have the Trappings of said career.

I have both listed.

Oh OK so it's not a start with this OR this holdover you've got both of them, s'pretty common.

Probably hold on to the money.  If we have this many playerso far I'd say we could potentially start a group going.

Should we hash things out in grouPM or a thread on the other forum, what d'you guys think?

DomJoe

I am vaguely interested in this... if I knew what any of this stuff meant, I'd decide on a character. Any place to find out more information on these careers and classes?

Don't worry. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing but I used that character generator provided, did some googling and I think I might have got a character sheet (well, I'll still change some stuff like appearance or family because rolling for that seems odd and I'd actually like to have some influence on the character I'm playing -- but I don't think that's going to be a problem?).

Lunar Raven

I usually roll against the source material books that I have, but I think I'll use the character gen on the link provided since it seems faster than rolling the stats up individually on the dice bot :P ;D

Ok, got a free moment to generate a character.  I've used the Knights of the Grail sourcebook to customise him to a Bretonnian and gave him the Carcassonne background (loosing 1 of the random starting talents [fleet footed] for the Birth Sword talent).  Sold off his foil (since I took savvy rather than Specialist Weapon Group [fencing]) and bought a Leather Jack instead.  Will write up a rough background for him as time presents.

He's a Bretonnian Noble, Devin de' Lansserrac, and his original sheet generated by the site can be found by clicking on his name in the google doc.

I'm still trying to decide whether to go with an Initiate or a Zealot...

Lunar Raven

Starting as a zealot will give your character a little more staying power in a fight, but starting as an initiate will get you closer to spellcasting (relatively) faster and have better access to knowledge from the get go.

Yeah, it's worth remembering that spell casting is both dangerous and fickle.  While I certainly think there are great rewards to be reaped for investing in spellcasting and sticking with it, well...

You're going all-in with casters, especially arcane rather than holy casters.  They won't come out the other side as sane or whole as they went in.

Please do!

I think I'll go with an Initiate, aiming for Priest (and possibly Warrior Priest or Flagellant/Scourge of God later on... if we ever make it) then.

EDIT. When you finish a career, do you have to exit to a career offered by the career you just finished or can you exit to any careers that you qualify for thanks to previous careers? Let's say I'm an ex-Initiate, ex-Priest, Flagellant. Do I have to exit to an exit career offered in Flagellant's entry or can I also exit to an exit career mentioned in Initiate or Priest? What if I can exit to a career I've already finished -- does that change anything (i.e. allow me to exit to that career and immediately finish it once again or something to exit into one that's allowed by that given career?) Sorry if it's a simple question but the book's confused me...

Well Jez, you're the only one making the effort, I'd say go for it.

In any case, I think this character should be suitable for submission:
Edit: That link doesn't work... damnit. Gotta recreate the character again.

Likely will go to Highwayman next, then Master Thief if we get that far... then I dunno after that. Going for a ranged build, since it seems like we'll have a healer and frontline fighter already.
Likely to also change a few physical characteristics as well, including name. I hope everything is in order.

The book gets über confusing about careers.  I believe you can only follow your current careers exits unless you pay doubL to swap into another basic.  If there's no otheruling on it, I'd say you can pay double and go back to a career you might have branched off to but didn't, as that seems like a logical thing to allow.

Who's down for a Saturday start?

DomJoe

Saturday seems alright. We still need to discuss more details I believe, like kinks and the like.

Thanks. Certainly opens up some new options.

I'm fine for Saturday but we could use some extra info about what you plan the game to be like -- all-Empire or maybe travelling to other countries? City or urban areas? More politics- or combat-oriented? Any major themes you foresee, like fighting the forces of Chaos featuring prominently, or perhaps only somewhere in the background?

If I may make a suggestion, I would personally love to see some Chaos-heavy plot (not necessarily in the beginning considering we hardly stand a chance against something like that), but in the long-term. I would also love if my character's goddess' imprisonment somehow fit into that plot -- I'm not saying it'd have to center around her or anything like that but even some simple side-quest concerning her cult or anything that could drive my character's search for the keys or his fight against Tzeentch would work.

Yes, a discussion of kinks would be most appropriate.  I'm thinking Exotic NC in case of Slaanesh but we of course don't need to go there if anybody doesn't want to.

I think I can make this work, hear me out.

Great map for ref.

I'd start you guys in the south east of the Empire, southern Wissenland let'say.  A wandering noble out of Brettonia, an Elf Outlaw (I imagine far more common so close to Athel Loren), and a Priest of an obscure cult sometimes prosecuted in the Empire.  I'll put the party in the same place, go ahead and assume you've exchanged pleasantries and know one another's names before the game commences, and then proceed to dangle something nice and shiny for each of you on the far side of the Black Mountains.

I'm a very free-form kind of DM so if you wind up in Albion or Norscar or Altdorf cause of a hanging thread you decided to chase then I'm not going to be upset you didn't take the bait somewhere along the road--but at least initially, to bring the group together, bait you I will.  It'll simply be the most economical and safest to travel en suite (although you'd all probably be keeping some secrets from each other, like about not!Chaos patron and outlawery and such) to the far side of the mountains for what'd amount to a quest reward.

You'd split your time between traveling and civilization, or whatever passes for it where you're headed.  Politics will be optional but if that's what the main pursuit turns in to no issues here--prepare for blood either way, though.

From my view this opens up opportunities to bring in the Law deity's cult (operating outside Imperial jurisdiction is the best way to avoid persecution), give an opportunity for the noble to obtain some land, and perhaps Tallana will find herself a shiny new bow... or getting stuffed from either side by her travelling companions\wandering Orks\fellow bandits, who knows.

We really should throw out what kind of kinks we're hoping to get into/Avoid here.  I'll scout everyone's O\Os as is customary but I find sometimes people have a time-specific craving or aren't feeling something at the moment or in a certain setting.

freeko

My O/O Is simple

Out: herm/futa, if this shows up at any point ever I am out of the game full stop.

Off: All the watersports related stuff. Gore is kinda frowned upon since I'd rather be raped than dismembered. Slavery and bondage start here but I can allow it in moderation given a proper situation for them.

On: Just about anything else.

Sounds great to me! Here's the .pdf generated by the character creator but I'm going to change the name, appearance etc.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7aWKH3c779xYzRfdU1MZEd6ams/view?usp=sharing

Also, since Initiates get one additional skill depending on their god... given that my character serves Arianka, the Chaos God of Law and Discipline, may I suggest Academic Knowledge (Law) or possibly Command as these two seem to make most sense?

As for my O/O... as a homosexual male, I'm all for M/M (switch lately with a dominant streak; all for D/S and BDSM) but if that's not your area, I'm happy to play "sex-less" game so to speak -- any sexual affairs with female characters will probably end up in fade-to-blank in his case.

Not to play matchmaker but it looks like the party has two pretty obvious parings, 1 M\M the other F/F.

The book gets über confusing about careers.  I believe you can only follow your current careers exits unless you pay doubL to swap into another basic.  If there's no otheruling on it, I'd say you can pay double and go back to a career you might have branched off to but didn't, as that seems like a logical thing to allow.
Need to find the exact quotation and pages, but you pay 200 xp if you want to change to a basic career that is not on your exit list.  You are also permitted to change (at the usual 100 xp) to the exit career of your last career, but not any careers before that.




I'm on the bi side of things myself.  I generally have my characters het-flexible (generally female seeking, but on occasion they'll swing the other way - though generally for fem-looking men rather than manly looking ones).  You can pretty much feature anything on my O/Os, though I'll defer to the lowest tolerance of others when it comes to what's featured.

I will try to be ready by Saturday, though my current state of work and poor health has conspired to stamp down on my muse in recent times, though, in theory, it's okay by me.




Anyone want to work on meeting-up backgrounds?

For those unfamiliar with the Warhammer world, Bretonnian nobles are largely generally considered self-entitled, self-important pricks at best and pompous asses who look down on everyone at worst (though Devin won't be either; more self absorbed with his personal worries more-like).  Their official religion is the Lady of the Lake (noble religion) though other, more traditional gods, are worshipped as well (peasant religion); on that note, that's the big dividing line of Bretonnia - nobles and peasants - there are actually laws for nobles (pretty lenient) and separate laws for peasants (extremely harsh).

Devin is on a quest to become a grail knight (holy knights that is blessed by and directly serve the Lady of the Lake [she's actually real]; most on the path just make a nuisances of themselves and eventually give up after facing real danger, but those who make it really shine as a beacon of light in the world).  As an aspirant, Devin more or less goes where there is trouble and wrongs that need to be righted, mainly in the hopes that by his deeds of charity and valour, the Lady of the Lake will see it fit to notice and directly give him a vision of a great quest destined for him to do.

For a Bretonnian, Devin isn't bombastic and arrogant as most, though like any Bretonnian, he loves his wine when he gets the chance.  He'll happily talk about his homeland, but will only get really enthusiastic if he thinks someone is genuinely interested.  Otherwise, he's a friendly sort who could stand to loosen up a little at times.

Did I post my character yet or am I missing something that I need to do?

Doesn't look like you did.  If so the quickest way to tell is showing us.

Guess I can do that later. Got stuck working for the next forever with a baseball game. A fate worse than death this is

Alright, hopefully this works... and it does, thank god.

Image for my character: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/f2/ec/3c/f2ec3c02b60194f8ede3e779257eee53.jpg
Will work out vague backstory and other ideas tomorrow.

Alright, time to add in some character details.

Name: Elenaril Daefir
Gender: Female
Age: 60
Birthplace: Laurelorn Forest
Starsign: Vobist the Faint (Darkness and Uncertainty)
Orientation: Bisexual
Siblings: 2 Sisters

Backstory: Elenaril's parents were a pair of Outlaws, rather content to take their living from other beings (especially human merchants) as they traveled about the lands. When Elenaril was born, the first of their children, they tried to raise her as best they could, but as they started having more children, they realized they couldn't keep up this lifestyle and their family. They left the children with friends at Laurelorn Forest, hoping that they would be raised as good citizens rather than Outlaws like them. However, Elenaril would show that she did not fall far from the tree herself. She had a reputation for sticky fingers at a young age, as wasn't content with living in the forest like her younger sisters were. Eventually, she struck off on her own, in order to find her parents and join in on the "family business", feeling her talents were much better suited traveling about then staying in one place.

Note: Being that Elenaril isn't stupid, she will say that she is an Elven Scout, rather than an Outlaw, although she will mention that she is looking for her parents. This would be her main reason for heading so far out into the world.

Ons: Tentacles, Demons, Monsters, Bestiality, Gangbangs, Rough Sex, Exhibitionism. There are others, but these are probably the most relevant.
Offs: Scat, Vore, Gore, Watersports, Heavy Bondage

That works.  Just further confirmation that we'll be having no bathroom business or mutilation.  Lots of people not in favour of Heavy Bondage though, so I assume shackles &etc are fine but nothing creative with the ropes?  Not that iExpect it to come up.

Although it does occur to me y'all can lose eyes\hands\etc if you take critical wounds... as long as it's not part of sexytimes are we OK with this?

Ideally prefer to not be mutilated. Though I just want this shitty baseball scrimmage to end so I can watch basketball and post my character.

Works for me.  Though I'd rather not have to lose them in the first place, lol :P

As an alternative, rather than have a bunch of limbless, eyeless players, maybe the injuries (which hardly makes for appealing characters) just take a long time to heal? (a few weeks to a month maybe?)

How do I take that character I popped out of the generator and put it into a useful form? Do I just port it into mythweavers manually?

Muse

  MEep! 

  I didn't know we'd found a GM!  May I play? 

  I've got a doctor's apointmnet in dallas.  May not be back 'til late saturday or early sunday.

Always welcome Muse.

We can gently integrate you if we do get rolling on Saturday but my feeling is that though we may still start on Sat it won't be "full steam ahead" mode for many of us.

There's two females, one an Entertainer and one an Outlaw, and then there's a Priest of a God of Law (who I'm taking to be a fringe religion sometimes prosecuted for potential connections with Chaos) and a Brettanian Grail Knight.  They'll be in southern Wissenland with early incentive to cross the Black Mountains south into the Border Princes--plenty of room for an apprentice mage.

Muse

Awesome. I'll come up with her as soon as I can. Starting characters. Any thing I need to know about generation.

I'd prefer not to be maimed or dismembered no matter what, especially that it's E. but if it's an unavoidable part of the setting, I guess that's fine. But I like Lunar Raven's suggestion.

Muse, we all used a character generator linked somewhere earlier in the thread (previous page I think?).

freeko

How do i get the character generated from the generator onto something you can see?

Muse

  Ack.  Character generators.  Is it acceptable to just use my own books, dice, and word processor? 

  I can use the Elliquiy dice bot if it'll help.

That's a question to our GM but this generator is really simple! You just choose your race, your starting career and then it rolls for everything (you can still choose skills or talents you normally can choose). As for name, appearance, background etc. you can change it to anything you want. Even though I generally prefer doing everything the usual way, I found it very intuitive and easy to use.

Someone answer this? I have had a character for 4 days now fundamentally done but I have no idea how to take what is there and do whatever with it so that I have an "official" character.

I will be unavailable over the weekend most likely so that means I likely get ignored until after the start of the game if things hold true since no one bothered answering the first two times I asked this question previously.

If you've finished the creation process, you need to export to a PDF file, download it and then put it up somewhere (I think everyone's used googledrive so far).

The generator is just a very smooth alternative, but if that's not your preference s'okay.

You just do the .pdf download and upload it someplace like imgur and then post it somewhere else.  Or copy over the stats manually.  There's not really an easy answer and your question isn't exactly clear--what's an "official" character?  One you can use?  As long as you've spent the free advance+picked the either\ors at the bottom like you said you have your character is completely ready to go.

You get the fuller sheet from clicking the Export to .pdf button at the top of the page, which tells you about your inventory.

That's basically all y'need tho.
