The Dark Eye seems to be the most succesfull RPG in germany and has been around since the 80's. It has evolved into a highly detailed world you can play in. And by detailed I mean everything is described if you need it. There are official maps for many cities, regions and descriptions down to the state of some roads. We ran a session with a german bro last weekend and I can truly say that I have never played anything like it, and I love it. I loved the situation where we were bloodied after a fight with an Ogre and our Hunter looked for some healing herbs in the woods and our DM whipped out a huge splatbook with detailed information on what plants one might find in different regions around the world as well as how you can use them or even make potions out of them.
Character generation took around two hours, wich is a bummer. But what you get from it is a complete character who fits perfectly into the setting. My character had a talent for "pottery" if I ever get around to doing that.
The world is pretty low-magic fantasy. Mages are rare but can get pretty powerfull. We had none in our group. There is faith-based magic based on "Karma" wich one of us had and it involved the Pantheon of the dominating culture in the north where we played, having 12 Gods with strictly defined aspects.
The playable races are Humans (who are never called that since they split up into many different races), Elves (Wich are more Alien that those of D&D) and Dwarves. Elves and Dwarves come in many flavours as well. You could also play Goblins and Orks who are less monster races and more antagonistic cultures. They also don't look anything like the classic orcs and seem to have branched off in a completely different direction since Tolkien.
Couldn't find the english PDF anywhere in the web for now. Heres hoping anyone has it since I would like to get a group starting as soon as I get back from Germany.
Twitter: https://twitter.com/ConflictEvidenc Anastasia is best Idolmaster CG. Don't worry as I won't take a hiatus like a certain manga author. __________________________________________________ “Grandma?!” you say with a mix of horror and shock.
What is her picture doing here and why was it a part of the “Les Enfants Terribles” data for the Ubermensch Genome project? Sure, your family has things they don't talk about but isn't this a bit much? Calm down, there is sure to be a rational reason for this all. For one, it could mean the creation of your entire family is artificial and used as a way to prototype genetic engineering on a human level. Nah, that is a bit too farfetched as that would require technology that was not even invented or thought up when Grandpa and Grandma had your Uncles and Dad. Another possibility is your Grandma was a pioneer in medicine. It is possible but you aren't too sure about this. As you never asked what she did for a living as she died while you were still young in a car accident.
So here you are John Smith, only known male IS pilot, sitting in front of your computer learning a potentially dark secret about your family. Something that was found on an intel report from your Grandpa. It could be true or it could be purposeful disinformation meant to throw off and confuse any outsider reading it. Grandpa always did like tests like these.
Is it allowed on /tg/? Couldn't find any rules against it, and with the guild meeting threads suddenly being deleted after nearly two years now of allowing them I'm wondering if I've missed something.
