Werewolf: the Dungeoning?

No.14739339 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Sup /tg/. In before "GURRRRRPS."
I've been working on the fluff and mechanics in bringing the Werewolf: the Apocalypse Changing Breeds into 3.5+ D&D.

I'm doing this for a multitude of reasons. The first is that I really enjoy the Changing Breeds, but you have no idea how uncomfortable it makes me to always have them tied to "HURRP END OF THE WOOORRRLD." The second would be, while the gritty Dark Ages supplement is fun, there's still limitations on what you can do and where you can go. I just feel like it'd be fun to play a Changer as they're described and outlined in WoD, in a D&D context. And thirdly, because while I love the way they're set up.. I can't stand the way the information is presented in WoD book supplements. Interspersed with in-character fluff and waxing warglebargic for paragraphs when "They can move 9 feet/turn" will suffice.

Less gloom, less doom. More animism, spirit husbandry, more defined Caern duties, functions and Sept roles. The major enemies of any theoretical D&D friendly supplement? Ghosts, aberrants and other nasty things.

What do you guys think? Would you play as WoD Changers in a more 3.5D&D setting? I'm still going to do this as a private hobby project, but I'm interested in knowing what yall think. As a bonus cutting out a lot of the boohoo might get rid of the melodramatic otherkin.

Some Mon-keigh broke into our craftworld and they're not being very nice.

You look big, maybe you can talk to them...

A bolter was pressed against his chest, angled up from a figure before him in crimson armour. His face-plate was gold-crested Mark III, archaic and festooned with Thousand Sons iconography.
‘Move and I kill him,’ said the legionary, speaking out loud to the entire keshig. The muzzles of half a dozen combi-bolters swivelled in his direction.
Qin Xa blink-transmitted a desist order to his brothers. ‘And you are?’ he asked.
‘Revuel Arvida. Last of my kind.

The First Blood Raven makes an appearance on this week's Scars, along with another notable Thousand Son...

For those of you who have read Mike Resnick's "Santiago: A Myth of the Far Future", you might know that many of the characters within the book had an associated couplet that had to do with either their occupation, a distinguishing feature, or miscellaneous trivia; all of these couplets were purported to be part of a greater Ballad of the Inner Frontier, penned and compiled by one Black Orpheus.

I think it might be interesting to see if /tg/ can come up with some couplets for their own characters. As such, I'll kickstart the thread by posting couplets from the book and images to go with them.

>Giles Sans Pitié is a spinning wheel,
>With the eye of a hawk and a fist made of steel.
>He'll drink a whole gallon while holding his breath,
>And wherever he goes his companion is Death.

Why are kobold PCs always treated as the wacky comic reliefs? Looking through their society and racial attitudes, they seem like pretty serious business little guys. Disciplined, hard-working, responsible, they'd really rather have to be the straight men of the party, always thinking about their goals and duties.

Their racial war with gnomes should also be a pretty clear sign that these guys have absolutely no sense of humor.

That said, if played for laughs, they should be put in comedic situations and watch them be entirely serious during the whole time. Kinda like (I'm so sorry) http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheComicallySerious
