Canadian here, let me use my authority to answer your question.
They'd get killed.
Canadians are pascifists, have a non-violent culture that is also afraid of everything. They also mock everything outside of their own country, while somehow not having patriotism.
Canadians would get their shit wrecked.

American who visits Canada a lot, they'd get allllll fucked up. Unless you grabbed some village from nunavut an put them in faerun's arctic or something. But then they'd have to fight frost giants and white dragons and ice worms and get fucked up all over again. It'd just take longer.

Depends. Bushwacking Middle of the fucking nowhere just off Highway 11 hillbillies? They'd do okay. City dwelling soft folk like >>14221094? Yeah, quick shit wreckage.

>>14221094
>Canadians are pascifists, have a non-violent culture that is also afraid of everything.
That's what we want everyone else to think. Glad to see you have so heartily swallowed our facade.....

>>14221094
I mean they would have a higher tech level then everyone else. Sure I mean there would be deaths, but they would get their shit together in a pile before they get wiped out.

>>14221076

It would be an incredibly boring campaign setting.
Also Canadian here, gotta say basically nothing ever happens here.

>>14221130

Seriously. I live in a hick town out side of Thunder Bay. All of my fucking relatives are built like bears, not to mention act like them.

>>14221135
> high tech
> no guns
DED.

>>14221130
Depends on the province or territory said town came from. Albertans or some of the more Artic areas would fare better.

>Widef Swiss-born
what?

>>14221076

Depends where they're from. I can easily imagine a group of Newfies being fine there.

"I am a Priest of Selune! Have you seen any servants of evil pass this way?!"

"Well, idn't dat strange, now, b'y. Garenteed, b'y, that someone's seen who you looks for, me love, but can't say oi 'ave."

Ontariofag here

people from my town would be fine, of course they are all aggressive moronic rednecks, I am not one of them, i'd go to waterdeep

>>14221094
You clearly aren't a Canadian.

>>14221168
is it bad that I understand newfie?

Southern Ontario town drops in: sudden influx of traders everywhere and instantly set up outside a major city

>>14221168
He is clearly not a Canadian. Alberta-fag here, Albertans seem to have this independence streak that's a mile wide and we are a group of angry rednecks. Fortunately I'm not one of them.

>>14221190

It's not difficult to understand it written. Spoken, a bit more so. Kinda crazy when you get into the really thick accents, though, and it all blends together.

Is it wrong I now want to see the adventures of a Newfie warlock?

We'd start playing shinny. Or field hockey, if it's the summer, but that's all kinds of lame.

Depends on the town. If it was a rural town you're looking at a farmers and angry drunks. If you dropped... say vancouver, they'd get their shit wrecked.

>>14221076
RCMP RANGERS EVERYWHERE. Seriously though, The RCMP can and will slap the shit out of Drow raiders.

>>14221205
yes, instead of Dwarfs being Scotish, they should all speak newfie xD

I actually understand Newfie speak, my neighbor is from Newfoundland and so is my Sister boyfriend and they both have heavy accents lol

>>14221190

Naw dude. That's an important national dialect, there. If its a town full of newfies and they can get a screech racket going, they'd shame dwarves with their stuff.

And if its a town of Northerners, there'd be a shitload of people who can hunt, fish, camp, and are basically adventurers who haven't had a land to adventure in.

>nstendef tasopis

I don't even know what the fuck you're on captcha.

>>14221225
> If it was a rural town you're looking at a farmers and angry drunks
yep, sounds like my town

All potions would come in Bags instead of Flasks

worst thing to come out of newfoundland

>>14221225

Vancouver at large would get its shit wrecked, but there's guaranteed to be pockets of people who would hack it. The nerds from the sword schools would probably make it at least a little bit longer.

>>14221265
The thing about larger urban areas is that you'll get a small percent of relatively successful white collar people who actively hunt, camp and do outdoors activities and they are basically qualified adventurers.

>>14221253
You mean this?

>>14221284
hey don't mess with the Dariry Farmers of Canada they will wreck your shit

>>14221264
There's a bottle of that shit in my kitchen.

Never touched it though.

>>14221307
*Dairy
oops

>>14221310
Give it a swig, then you are free to be grossed out and toss it at the wall

its what im drinking right now, just because I dont like seeing things go to waste

>>14221282
Doing all that shit with the extensive aid of modern technology in relatively tame wilderness by no means qualifies you for adventuring in the wilderness of a D&D setting. Shooting a deer is not on the same level as successfully killing several hundred pounds of regenerating troll.

>>14221329
with the HP and everything no, but If you could put a crossbow bolt threw its skull, im sure a troll would die rather easly

>>14221337
You know, until you discovered either that it's skull was strong enough to withstand the impact or that it's just going to get up once the injury heals in a matter of seconds.

>>14221348
Use more gun then.

>>14221329
what does "qualify" you for adventuring in D&D?

>>14221353
Ability to level I guess.

>>14221348
true, flaming crossbow bolts to the face then?

>>14221353
Being lucky enough to survive really. But having some modicum of training and experience helps. Which I highly doubt the variety of hunting yuppies engage in qualifies as.

>>14221361
Enjoy acquiring 3+ pounds of gold per bolt when the average person only sees a couple gold coins worth of currency in a month.

>>14221353
Sociopathic tendancies, uncontrollable greed and a healthy dose of pyromania.

What Canadian towns have insane asylums?

I don't know man, Us Atlantic Canadians are pretty much at home wherever you throw us, Except for those folks from Halifax.

And the hardiest of them all, Those Rural Newfoundlander's
>Cut off from Civilization every winter
>Don't give a fuck
I respect those folks.

>>14221230
The RCMP are secretly badass. http://www.cracked.com/article_18572_6-organizations-you-didnt-know-were-secretly-badass.html

mfw I wish my town was teleported to Faerun because I have skills that would work in D&D

ie.
>swordsmanship training
>fencing
>archery
>riding
>Wilderness survival (was in scouts and got most of my badges, also have alot of in woods experiance)
>Know how to make chainmail and basic forging skills

I will never put these skills to use in this world ;___;

feelsbadman.jpg

Hold on.

1) Town implies middle of fucking nowhere in Canada. That means, everywhere, and chances are, you'd have more independently capable people out there. Campers and the like.

2) Which part of Faerun? It's a big place. Like, the Sword Coast or something? Then you'd have all your shit broken and stolen by BLUNTFIST MAGMAAXE, BAD MOTHERFUCKING DWARF, and HEY ITS ME IMOEN

I imagine we'd fare as well as any other town once we adapted to being, you know, transported into fantasy land.

>>14221378
hollowtipped heads with oil soaked rags in them work to

>>14221383
Joke's on you. The towns ARE the asylums.

>>14221383
Penetanguishene has a asylum (or a town near there)

>>14221415
That's going to have a hard time sufficiently penetrating a normal human.

>>14221337

It really wouldn't.

It's totally magic regen - they can be rendered into a fine paste and get back up.

However fire and acid are much easier for us to acquire than a normal group of commoners.

A Troll can just kill any non-magical village that can't knock it down and keep it down (or drown it).

>>14221437
Here's a question though in the new-found presence of Magic could some use it and would we be able to gain holy powers from gods.

>>14221437

>>14221452
We could be like anti-magic weapons or lost the ability to do magic.

If I knew I'd be getting sent to Faerun, I'd buy all the Lee Enfields I could, mount bayonets on them, and turn them into a palisade.

It wouldn't work really well, but it'd be awesome to look at.

>>14221476
if I knew I was going to faerun , i'd steal a few tanks

>>14221476
oh that just gave me a thought what if the town was near/attached to a military base then you would get professionals that could react to the situation better.

>>14221452

Perhaps.

Because you don't just wake up one morning with WORD OF LAW floating around your noggin. There's a whole ritual compnent of prayer and devotion that no real faith would do because it doesn't actually grant you spells in the real world.

Some gods - not our gods though - might send visions to their worshippers of our presence, given the potential benefit. But that applies to Hextor as well as Heironeous.

Look at that Buffy/FR crossover - it has some decent ideas on how shit would go down. Even if it is mired in the rather boring canon characters on both sides - a purer Island in the Sea of Time scenario is what we're discussing.

>>14221490
Or it had a rcmp police station too.

>>14221490
so like Angus, Ontario, which is right outside base borden?

>>14221491
I'm not saying it like that I mean in a town of let's say 30,000 people (depending on area could be a low or high number). At least a few people will unknowingly follow the ways of a specific god now various political and religious groups are guaranteed to investigate and they find these people and in turn use them to gain a foothold by introducing the gods and eventually you will get priests and paladins( even f only minor ones).

>>14221383
oooooh... Kingston Quest. I can feel the campaign writing itself already. Various buildings and other structures like Fort Henry appearing with them in the transition. get some undead happening too.

>>14221509
Or Edmonton.

Minus the fact that it's not a town, having everybody stationed at CFB Edmonton would be pretty sweet. That is to say, most of 1 CMBG.

Wiki:
1 CMBG Headquarters & Signal Squadron CFB Edmonton
Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) Armoured CFB Edmonton
1 Combat Engineer Regiment CFB Edmonton
1st Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Mechanized infantry CFB Edmonton
3rd Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Light infantry CFB Edmonton

So yeah. 2/3rds of PPCLI and an armoured regiment, and 1 CER.

>>14221521

How many people in New York follow the Precepts of Pelor?

Zero?

Yeah that sounds about right.

Don't arbitrarily assume that just because people are different that having a lot of people means that one of them has four arms or randomly has a Chaos Magic ritual that works in Fantasyland.

a small canadian town? thats boring!

lets drop berlin at the end of worldwar2 into faerun!

>>14221568
... *raises hand*

>>14221583

>>14221568
I'm saying there's a chance that at least a few people will unknowingly follow the ideals of at least 1 god

My town would be fine, just as long as we could get a palisade up quick enough. The seven churches, RCMP detachment, and thriving martial arts community should offer us a large selection of people with levels in cleric, paladin, ranger, monk and fighter. Also, maple syrup.

i'd gladly convert myself to a specific faith if I was teleported to Faerun, prob Silvanus,

>>14221588

And that is bullshit.

It wouldn't fly in a book "Joe Schmoe average man happened to follow a 'personal god' similiar enough to Lolth that she gave him leet magic powers and then he got lots of government funded hot dickings".

I'm really keeping your silly mary-sue idea alive by responding to it aren't I?

We don't need some random protagonist to pop up with HOLY JESUS-BUT-NOT-ACTUALLY-JESUS MAGIC.

We have guns. Cars. Civilisation that would make any empire of Faerun feel small in the coffers.

Magic will come, yes. But we aren't bringing it with us.

>>14221643
Can you at least Google ideals before raging at me.

>>14221666
>666

nice try Satan. we see through you.

>>14221666
Detect evil!

How will these Canadians get along with their neighbors? Good? Bad? complete isolation?

>>14221909
Depends on who it is. Dwarves would be total bros. Elves would cry alot due to toilet paper, humans are unsure and the Drow would be scared shitless of them.

>>14221969
Suddenly, Menzoberranzan is invaded by tanks.

Nova scotian here

If you took your average nova scotian and sent dropped them in they'd do pretty well, violent, gun nuts, hunters, survivalists, gay bashers and sailors. Think Vikings, twice as drunk, not as tall and more pissy.

>>14221909
Depends on where they are and what they're doing, as well as the edition of D&D.
God forbid we send lumberjacks into 2e Forgotten Realms, druids there are known to wipe entire cities from the map due to someone cutting down one too many trees.

Canadian here, BC to be specific, We have hunting rifles, and plenty of other rifles, not to mention the goddamned natives shoot anything that goes onto the reserves, so we'd do pretty well. In my town we have a very large Steamwheeler that's been beached as a museum with the coal engines intact(the parts may not work now, but we'd be able to recreate them easily), and a great supply of fish from the lakes. Also, orchards, orchards everywhere.

Guns would give us some time to figure shit out and get our magic going, assuming we can learn it in the new place we are in. I don't have guns in my house since I have a kid, but my dad has mine, and even then, I have a BB gun powerful enough to kill dog-sized animals. Pacifistic we may be, but we can defend ourselves.

All these mentions of guns and tanks actually has me wondering...
First: The Drow are known to regularly discover gunpowder technology only to kill off whoever actually figured it out this time so he can't fuck up the status quo, what are the odds that they decide it's time to actually hold onto those inventors?

Second: firearms are already fairly common place in faerun as is, hell they even have spaceports and the dwarves run a space station near the moon, and let's not get started on the death cannon made to annihilate stars. Would the canadians be seen as low-tech? This implies we're talking before 3e/4e cut out most of the high-end stuff.

Third: How long until the Lantanese colonize the canadians to reverse engineer some tech and consider others obsolete?

There's actually a fairly decent story about this premise on the DrowTales forums. Don't have a link to it.

>>14221284
Hold on tight, milk.
Shit just got real!

>>14222062
Most of it is troll physics at work.

I think it would be more interesting to drop a small town of Australians into Faerun rather than Canadians. Giant spiders and oozes and shit cant be that much worse than what they've already got to deal with

I now have the mental image of a canadian Paladin, armored in his winter coat and wielding a hockey stick. Smites the undead whenver he isn't helping the needy by smoking pot with them.

>>14222119
Don't they need air IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAACE?

Ok... lets alter things about 100 miles south... instead of Canada, it's Minnesota USA, and difference?

My Opinion

A lot of us die really fast. Minnesota is one of the more fit states in the union and we have a lot of fatties... they die, sorry guys and gals...

However our gun to person ratio is pretty god damn high around here, and unlike in big cities we're not talking about 9mm handguns, we're talking hunting rifles and assault rifles cause... well America... yeah...

Canada has guns too... but its just kind of our thing down here.

The problem... we do have Minnesota nice, but it is nothing compared to Canada nice, and I'm sure we'd make more enemies and less friends than our Canadian brethren. Now if our two settlements were next to each other we'd be golden.

I imagine it would be a lot of disgust considering how sexually open the FR tends to be, where gender bending, dick girls, extreme bdsm, and orgies are commonplace.

The Tree's we would cut them

DOWN

THe water we would Draught it

ALLL

UPPP

We would basically become grubby surface dwarf lumberjacks and own the ever loving shit out of everything.

IMMA LUMBERJACK AND IM OKAY.

Also depending on who exactly got nabbed, we would basically revolutionize one of several fields (Logging/Timbering, Construction, Ship Building, Farming, Mining, Scribing, government).

So yeah, My money;s on the cannucks

>>14222448
>surface dwarfs
You know there isn't really a distinction between surface and below ground dwarves in the FR.
In fact the dwarves that had the original ancestral home where the great rift now is located, are known to be both great tunnel fighters and also ride griffons into battle.
One of their famous maneuvers involves carrying a special shield made to be easily grabbed onto by a swooping down griffon, so that the dwarf can jump off mid-flight, axe someone in mid-air, and then their mount can swoop in and catch them before they became a hairy-pancake on the ground.

Though really that's nothing when compared to some of the fighting styles of other races in the realms.

But really you're just forgetting about how using too many trees or water will have giant dragons made out of water attacking the city until every man woman and child is slain.

fatties .... die quickly.

Sorry boss, fatties um actually are a good thing. There's going to be a largish period with little to no food right at the begining and someone who's all hipster and shit ain't gonna have a good time without their fucking hipster java juice and overpriced latties to carry them energywise threw.

Their's this interesting FAT paradox, that fat people in disadvantagous situations do better are healthier, etc. then skinny people, dispite their size? Why that fat is a sign of success. Regardless big people tend to be strong then you might expect, as having to carry arround 300lbs of blubber has an impact on your musclature.

Just some food for thought,

>>14222505
We'll still take down the dragons of water and the Druids. Canadians, the people who tell nature to cram it up her ass.

What about dem Tarrasque?

>>14222553
didnt you know that Canada is the closest thing on this world to Faerun OP?

>>14222632
one solution to a Tarrasque is to nuke it. Problem solved.

>>14222633
I know, all we are missing is the Dwarves, elves and magic.

>>14222683
Dwarves - the northern natives
elves - people from Northern Ontario (timmins and james bay
magic - thats the only thing we are missing

we even have people in some of the class's
Clerics - Maple leaf fans (just because they are fanatics)
Paladins - the RCMP
Fighters - our military
Barbarians - our lumberjacks

>>14222667

A nuke is a nonmagic weapon. It wouldn't even dent a Tarrasque.

>>14222753

ie.
Geddy Lee

Neil Peart

>>14221094
BWAHAHAHA.

Montreal fa/tg/uy here. We may be a lot more polite about it but we'll just as happily kick some ass. We'll be tolerant of people's beliefs, but quickly turn nasty if they try to teach our kids their "one true faiths", and our Paladins will be made of members of the Athar. Or maybe we won't have any.

Expect psychic warriors all over the place, and extensive programs for breeding better species of warmoose and bear. We may make nature our bitch, but most of us actually like her, and damned if we'll let some civilization take our sled trails.

We have more than enough of a head on our shoulders to steal whatever the other sides are using and take their capitals over with it. Its how we get half our equipment anyways.

We are really polite at times.

Canada is the only country with a 2-0 win record against the United States in war (Revolutionary and 1812) so I give them due respect.

Gun ownership is low compared to the United States. Only 30.8 per 100 residents compared to our 88.8, but I assume any random town will have enough firepower to defend itself until established. After that you are into a 1633 by Eric Flint (book series) situation where a small town with SCIENCE! kicks the ass of the primitive screwheads around them.

>>14223755
gun ownership is low, but those with guns tend to stockpile them.

guns are commonplace in small towns.

Plenty of guns in canada.

not to mention any police station or RCMP hq will have plenty of weapons.

We'd get shit done, since we're used to having to build shit fast.
I'd worry about getting grains and what not, but if friendly local contact can be made we'll be able to get grains to grow.

after that yeah mythical beast will be a problem, but i think the average canadian is better than a fantasy commoner. Plenty of books would be transported as well so some knowledge would allow a stepping stone of modernization above that of the surrounding empires.

the first order of business would be to clear land for crops, and build a fort.

Being fat is a good sign when you are the apex predator, not when you are the potential prey. Also "fat" does not = "big" fat = fat. Scrawny isn't in for a good time either, but at the end of the day scrawny will outrun more apex predators than will fat, but fit has the chance of eventually becoming the apex predator. There is a different between being a bear of a man and being a fat turd.

>>14222787
Here's the thing about science... it doesn't give a fuck what your religion says about magic.

>>14224008
I can imagine the reaction of neighbouring townsfolk when the newfies suddenly appear in Faerun.

>Have you spoken with the newcomers yet? What do they call themselves?
Yes I have, and I believe they call themselves Noufn'landrs. I think they may have some Dwarven ancestry.

>Have you learned anything of their religion?
Well I thought I did, so I asked to know more about their "Jesus H Murphy" to which the man started shouting about their Lord Tunderin. I think it's best we leave that topic alone.

>>14226403

those fat studies are done on human's where this apex preditor bullshit your talking about doesn't exist.

Short story. you agree with me, scrawny is as bad as lard ass.

What I'm also saying is that Lard Ass comes with several other benefits (such as being able to survive a few days without a whole lot of calory , which is just as useful for a delirious fever as say having to fucking bushwack for a few days).

Short Story, I think its easier for Fat people to fit up then scrawny people. Fat people are missing exercise, which will be fixed. That whole scrawny outrunning the fatty will work, presuming that one and only one predator is there, and they only kill to eat, both of which seems unlikely in faerun (intelligent magical beasts seem more inclined to group behavior and cruelty then say mountain lions).

AS far as Newfs, I sincerely think they wouldn't even notice. They'd just rename themselves newfs and go on their merry way.

Now Newf just needs a racial type. 2bcontinued

Newfs, (Including Southern Newfs and related species such as the atlantic Canadian)

Heirs of a shattered empire who live on the rock and share close ties with atlantic canada.

RACIAL TRAITS
Average Height: 5´ 6˝–6´ 2˝
Average Weight: 180–330 lb.
Ability Scores: +2 Constitution, +2 Wisdom
Size: Medium
Speed: 6 squares
Vision: Normal
Languages: Common, Newfie
Skill Bonuses: +2 Endurance , +2 Nature
Newfie Resistance: You have resist resist all 2. This becomes resist all 4 at level 11 and resist all 5 at level 21

Screetch.

Any Newfie can drink anything from a very young age. Newfies are immune to natural and brewed (althought not magical) poisons.

Sea Chantie: You can use Sea Chantie as an
encounter power.

Sea Chantie Newfie Racial Power

You call upon your natures fury to improve your odds of harming your foe.

Encounter
Standard Action Personal
Effect: You can sing your sea chantie to gain either a +1 bonus to all d20 rolls for as long as you are singing the chantie or +2 to hit on your next attack. If multible newfs use this power, one the first uses a standard action. The rest can use their power as an immediate reaction with a free action.

Southern Newfs get the racial power Ceileigh instead.

Ceileigh Southern Newfie Racial Power

Daily
Standard Action Zone
Effect: You host a Ceileigh or kitchen party wherever you can find to space to do so. hosting a Ceileigh takes 10 hours or so and creates a 10 sq by 10 sq zone. All creatures in the zone for the majority of the time gain the benefits of a long rest. This long rest doesn't not count towards the daily limit or 18 hour timer of long rests.

we love out guns here, just as much as Americans do.

don't let the faggot liberal scum in the cities tell you otherwise.

Actually, from statistics, canadian households holds an average of 1 rifle grade weapon.

We have nearly no handguns, but there's a fucking lot of hunting equipment... since anywhere in the country, you're at most a 1 hour ride from a good hunting ground.

>>14229130
Another thing to add, if the Prime minster goes out of hand, the Gov. General has the ability to control the military.

The Canadian Corps in the first world war invented trench raiding, survived a gas attack without the equipment to do so (second battle of ypres), and just overall got in the way of german plans for european domination.
