Experimental BEE KNIGHT rules:

Hive Knight:
Size: Medium!
Natural weapons: Stingers provide +2 to Brawl
Racial Traits:
HoneyHoneyHooney, Honey!: When those other fuckers are sleeping, you are producing sweet delicious honey. Honey can be used to reduce an enemies Agility by 2, or restore two Strikes. Ursine characters suffer -4 Agility from the honey. One Honey stack is produced once per day. Stacks up to 5 stacks at Zero, increasing to 10 at On-A-Roll and 15 at Hero. Excess honey must be either sold, used, or discarded immediately.
Flight: Each piece of armor can be disassembled quickly. The bees carry the armor, and you can take to the motherfucking skies as a bee cloud.
Drones: Can send out little flying fuckers to gather information or pick up small objects. These lil fuckers are dumb, but can report back to you so long as they don't have to make any decisions on the way. They get +2 to stealth, and an additional +2 against humans, on account of being all tiny and shit
Amorphous: +2 to Prevent Harm
Attributes: +2 Robustness, +2 Intelligence, -2 Agility
Bug Type: take a -2 penalty against fire damage

>tried my hand at a K/L/R, will have to do until someone more skilled comes along. Credit to the original anons for the parts that are shamelessly stolen.

King - Shere Khan, King of Tigers and Maharajahdhiraj of India
Powerful, sophisticated and full of vigour, Shere Khan is the very image of a tiger and a ruler. Once contented with being the most feared and respected predator in the jungle, his lust for power awakened after he killed the arrogant man-cub who dared to challenge him and his bear protector Baloo. Realizing now there was nothing to stop him, he declared himself lord and master of the entire jungle and turned most of the Indian sub-continent in his personal hunting grounds by claw and fear.
Legends tell that before his fall from grace the First Tiger was appointed by Tha, Father of Elephants, as the Master and Judge of all animals; the Dread King has fully embraced the title of his ancestor and personally enforces his laws with sudden, swift and brutal violence. Except for this he has no taste for the endless paperwork and formalities of government, leaving most of the actual ruling to his right-hand man Tabaqui the jackal.

>>36482216
and - The Shere Khanate
One of the Tiger King's first acts was to impose a rigid caste system on his subjects, which they are expected to follow religiously.
Felines are obviously the highest class: essentially royalty, they are free to break most of the laws without fear of their lord's retribution and allowed to hunt any other animals (bar simians) wth impunity.
Simians have a complicated place in Shere Khan's kingdom: political ties with the Kingdom of the Red Flower put them second only to the great cats in terms of rights and leeway, but exactly for this reason most of their fellow animals see them as intruders, upstart foreigners reaping benefits they don't deserve.
Below apes and cats are the Great Beasts: elephant, wolves, snakes and generally anyone powerful or impressive enough to be marked for special treatment. They form the medium-upper class of society and still enjoy a certain amount of freedom.
Every other animal falls into the category of the Lesser Beasts, plagued with poverty, low life expectancy and draconian laws and often used as a source of prey for nobler citizens.
Finally, at the very bottom of society, are the humans: now robbed of the weapons and the red flower he feared so much, the Dread King's sworn enemies are reduced to Untouchables, the lowest of the low. Beasts are forbidden from associating with them and even encouraged to hinder, stalk and kill any who tries to enter his realm.
So pervasive is his power and so great the dread he inspires that this caste system is being partially applied even in Louie's and Kaa's lands; Only Hati's children, Rama's pack and the Free Creatures rallying under Baghera's banner still have the strength to oppose it.

>>36482223
Rule - In the Forest of the Night
In villages and communities a veneer of civilization still holds, but in the deepest jungle, Shere Khan's real kingdom, there is no noise. Not the sound of monkeys, chirping of birds or the sound of paws; every animal is stuck in the darkest dread. The party will always feel as if they are being watched by something that could kill them at that very moment, and every noise they make sounds, to them, as if they had just blasted a warhorn and called....it. What is it? You don't know, and you want to find out even less. If you don't find a way to keep your courage up, you might yourself fall to the paralyzing fear.

>all that arguing last night
Sheesh. What's the matter with that guy, did a magic switchblade kill his parents right before he was assraped by 20 knights or something? Magic weapons are totally optional. If you sacrifice yourself to the Black Cauldron, you'll be revived by the Witches of Morva just like Gurgi was. If HK doesn't get sucked into the Cauldron when its powers are destroyed, he can still be defeated by any conventional method - actually, forget that, I'm going to say he's DONE the moment the powers of the Cauldron are destroyed.

The bees are frigging hilarious though.

Anyhow:
>House of Mouse: Hades makes amorous advances on Maleficent.
>House of Villains: Churned Up Bog tells Maleficent that he likes her work.
>Hades' realm touches Maleficent's.
>So would Bald Mountain if the Dread One pushed through the Mirror Kingdom just a little more.
Please let Hades and Churned Up Bog vying for Maleficent's affection be a thing.

>>36484133
People didn't like it because it was a convention to a book that was not actually part of the Disney canon, it's a book that was RELATED to a movie that Disney made. Moreover, it screws over parties whose Strong Guy isn't human, because the Horned King's Prevent Harm is way too high for someone to hit them untrained. Lastly, if someone HAS to sacrifice themself to the Cauldron to defeat the Horned King, now you've made a lot of work for the GM if the player doesn't want to leave the campaign because now he's dead and a new character needs to be shoehorned in. It's a viable campaign option, sure, but it's not something that should be part of the standard 'players save every country in the world' ruleset.

>>36483420
No, seriously, I have no idea on how to expand it further, but It was one of the very first things written for the setting (somewhere in the first ten threads) and thus I'd like to keep it. Any of you gentlemen have suggestions?

>>36484221
>Lastly, if someone HAS to sacrifice themself to the Cauldron to defeat the Horned King, now you've made a lot of work for the GM if the player doesn't want to leave the campaign because now he's dead and a new character needs to be shoehorned in.
So just remind them that Gurgi was brought back after his own sacrifice, and that their death will ultimately be temporary because DISNEY MAGIC.

What I think I've learned from this is that magic weapons should explicitly only be shortcuts to defeating a king, not the only means to defeating them. The increased power of a magic weapon alone should be enough to encourage players to seek them out before facing a king. So if I want an enchanted weapon to be the shortcut to defeating Maleficent's dragon form, what should the normal route be?

Makes sense, plummeting 200 feet and screaming until you die off-camera is the Disney way.

>>36485270
More powerful ones might have to have some special about the fall; Frollo's fall has to in some way symbolize him going to Hell, Mor'du can't be crushed by something mundane (a menhir counts because it is a religious monument).

Wait a minute.....the Black Cauldron was created when Arawn was thrown into molten iron, what happens if Frollo falls into molten copper as he was in the movie? Might the PCs, without knowing it, create an indestructible evil artifact?

>>36485356
Is that what happened? Can we make that an element of Frollo's backstory? They won, but in doing so turned Frollo into a Lich and created his phylactery?

>>36485497
.......yeah, that could work. Put that one on the rumor mill, whoever keeps track of it.

>>36485497
>>36485520
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Does this mean that Frollo has his own version of the Black Cauldron? How does his one work?

>>36485356
>>36485497
>>36485520
It'd be unintentional if anything, because I'm pretty sure Arawn was all "screw you guys I'm going to have eternal unholy skeleton vengeance" whereas Frollo would be more "daaaaaamnatioooooon."

>>36485623
In which case, he'd probably view it as a blessing from God.
Also, if he's undead, does he spend all his time crucifying himself so he can be more Christ-like? I just have this image of the players entering Frollo's cathedral, and seeing him hanging on a great golden crucifix, glaring down at them.

>>36485581
Iron (and by extension steel, since 'cold iron' is actually the same sort of euphemism as 'hot lead') is the metal used to punch magic in the cock, and thus it was able to contain Arawn's dark power and prevent the mists from spilling out if no one called them out. While Frollo is no freaking lord of death, copper does not possess much magic-cockpunching abilities.....I'd say it turns into a hellfire cannon.

>>36485715

Is Cold Iron just normal iron even in this setting?

Because when I made HUnnish China I kinda went off the assumption that cold iron was some specialy-crafted shit

>>36485803
Cold iron in the context of most rpgs is unrefined iron....which I personally think is stupid. Granted, I know that it's there so that you have to have special weapons to harm fae but not to require magical weapons to harm the fae, but there's no way it makes sense in universe. If it's the iron itself that harms the fae, steel actually has a higher iron content than cast iron, iron ore or pig iron and should be the most potent against the fae. If it's the unrefinedness, then the optimal fae-killing strategy is to bash their skulls in with a big piece of iron ore.....which sounds pretty fucking cool now that I think about it.

>>36485912

Eh, in the version I heard of, cold iron is basically name for iron tools that have been hammered on a cold anvil

Made me think that the idea is sort of neat for a modern day setting: Nobody uses anvils anymore except for small time blacksmiths so most weapons would be useless against fae

In the disney setting people probably still use anvils all the time though, so we gotta give it a sort of "rare" nature to justify even mentioning it in Hunnish China and not making the huns just slash away all the spirits.

I vote for it to be a combination of saying/carving some special shit over the anvil and then using it

>>36485980
Or the iron has to be mined from a special place, or it has to be quenched in special water, or the carbon has to come from a special bog....something small like that.

>>36486049

>Special bog

Cherno's bog

Huns confirmed for not giving a fuck and mining on the edge of Chrobog's land to get the cold iron

>>36485980
By the way, where did you hear of this 'cold anvil' version?

>>36485356
You are not allowed to bring the Prydain books on as canon. Lloyd Alexander actually said that he liked the movie only as a standalone movie, but that it wasn't representative of the books. That's like me bringing in all of Greek mythology just because Disney made Hercules

>>36486087

Just around the internet, I was doing some research. Might've been even in wikipedia; I couldn't find a version that sounded as cool so I stuck with that one

>>36486110
Oh, knock it off. Between the movie and the show, they covered the majority of Greek mythology anyways, if only a kiddy gloves version.

>>36485803
Could iron is to iron as got lead is to lead. All iron works

They have a butchered ultra wholesome version of a small facet of it. Just on the myth of Hercules, they changed his mother from being a mortal to bring Hera, they changed the primary antagonist from Hera to Hades because MUH CHRISTIAN SATAN ANALOG, changed Zeus from a lecherous asshole to a loving father, and took away Hercules' motivating to do all the things he did. The point is that you can't pull from having adapted source material and call it canon. Also, I really don't like Hercules

>>36486374
>Zeus from a lecherous asshole to a loving father
Actually I think he was still pretty good to Hercules in the original myth. Or at least that's what I remember.

>>36486331
Also Elsa probably needs a buff.

>>36482216
>Tabaqui the jackal
Who?

>>36486397
It wasn't anywhere close. I watched it two nights ago and everything I said was true

>>36486374
And so I adapted the source material. Magic weapons are completely optional, the default method to kill HK is exactly what it was in the movie. I have gone back and done revisions based on criticism I have received. What more do you want?

>>36486374
Stop talking about it, then. Home on the Range is far worse than Hercules could ever hope to be, even with muh mythology, but Alameda Slim still controls a swathe of the Southwestern US.

>>36486473
Shere Khan's henchman from Kipling's book, I borrowed some things from there to flesh it up a bit. For example, in the movie Shere Khan was happy with being the apex predator in his neck of the woods while in the book he's a power-hungry asshole who wants to rule all the jungle.

>>36486500
the point is that the source material means nothing. The author of the book, Lloyd Alexander is actually quoted as saying: ""First, I have to say, there is no resemblance between the movie and the book." The movie stands alone, if only because the author cut ties between it and the source material.

>>36486610
I think Tabaqui was in one of the earlier cuts of the filml.

>For example, in the movie Shere Khan was happy with being the apex predator in his neck of the woods while in the book he's a power-hungry asshole who wants to rule all the jungle.
Between that and the fact that he's not crippled in the movie makes me feel like movie Shere Khan is a young tiger in his prime who is utterly proud of and confident in himself while book Shere Khanis an old, bitter tiger who's overcompensating for being well past his prime.

>>36486500
By the way, we made a strawpoll to pick the method to kill the Horned King:
http://strawpoll.me/3094209
Making a hero kill himself to fit your vision of the story, only to be brought back in a very specific way the way that you want him to is pretty clear railroading. Again, this seems fine for a campaign, bad for a setting

>>36486821
What if Shere Khan was crippled in his final battle with Mowgli and Baloo and this whole "conquer all of India and force everyone in castes" thing is his way to show everyone (but mostly himself) he's still the fucking King Tiger? A plot hook could be that he's desperately searching for a way to become young and healthly again.

>>36486738
If the source material meant nothing, Disney would be making completely original stories.

>>36486839
>trusting a poll made when most people aren't on
We agreed very early on that except for the weakest of kings, all kings would be puzzle bosses or otherwise have some sort of catch to defeating them. Please, explain to me your alternative. Unless you don't have one, in which case, fashion yourself a dunce cap and wear it while sitting in a corner.

>>36486961
And he's right next to the Hunnic Empire too...

>>36485108
I knew I was forgetting one

>>36486961
In the book he was lame from birth, to the point his mother had named him Lugri ("cripple"). Maybe it's a nickname used by Baghera or his other enemies. We could give him a trait that give a bonus to social rolls to taunt or provoke if the players know his real name.

>>36486966
Calm the fuck down. The point of the poll was to be reposted in the morning and we would wait for a lot of people to be on. And the source material means nothing TO THIS RPG. I KNOW that you love the Prydain books, you've made that abundantly clear, and they are good books, but we are dealing exclusively with Disney animated movies here, not book series, no matter how great. We can't bring in things that were never in any Disney movie just because they were there in something a Disney movie was based on.

>>36487096
Villains winning was never in any Disney movies. Nor was a lich Frollo, nor an elite global club of hunters, nor Buldeo, nor Clarisse, nor Friends On The Other Side who are interested in anything other than souls. It's a bit of a grey zone.

>>36487191
Yes, and those are all based on things FROM DISNEY MOVIES. As opposed to the Prydain books. Something based on the Prydain books was a Disney movie, but we're looking at that movie, not the original source material. It's the same reason that Hades in this setting doesn't do a much better job of running Greece than the other gods did.

>>36487259
Problem is, the movies are incomplete; there are a great deal of details they don't go into, questions they don't answer. If we need that information, then the source material is the best place to look for it, provided it doesn't directly contradict the Disney canon. My proposals never contradicted the Disney canon, they are purely issues with gameplay and campaigning.

Now, what alternative do you offer?

>>36487259
Exactly. Thank you

Don Bluth

I think I came up with a way to settle this

http://strawpoll.me/3098307

>>36487371
We just make up whatever we want because we don't need to base it off of the original source material. Like, you can if you want to, but you shouldn't make it so we HAVE to.

>>36487430
Wow. That strawtroll though.

On the note of non-super-biased strawpolls, you should all make sure to vote on the Horned King one:
http://strawpoll.me/3094209

>>36487371
Dude. Alexander Lloyd himself said that the film was unrelated to the Prydain universe. Everyone except you acknowledged that the Prydain universe and the Black Cauldron universe should be counted as separate things.

Stop.

>>36487450
Then put up or shut up. What should catch to the HK's death be if not what I have proposed?

http://strawpoll.me/3098307/r

I love that Knight actually voted on this.
>>36487532
Exactly

I don't see no problem with using the original material to flesh out the setting a bit as long as we mostly stay faithful to the Disney version, be it Prydain, the Jungle Book or Voodoo tradition.

>>36487551
We were talking about the whole "black cauldron made by Arawn getting molten iron'd" thing. Although I still think that's a pretty cool idea. Still, you do not have free reign to just say "It was in the Prydain books, so it's canon." That's the point we're making.

>>36487551
HE ALREADY TURNS INTO A FUCKING SNAKE WHEN YOU KILL HIM, WHY DOES HE NEED ANOTHER CATCH? You made him super-powerful to the point where if he's in a campaign I'm in, I'm gonna go for a Sunnydale Graduation Day and just blow up a castle on top of him, we're just debating how you kill him A SECOND TIME. There was already a catch when he turned into a fucking snake

>>36487662
You retard.

You fucking retard.

Arawn being cast into iron was explicitly narrated in the minute of the fucking movie.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49h6584Q1Ag

>>36487708
Snake's been edited out.

>>36487781
You could have just said that originally. Also, when was the snake edited out?

>>36487781
>Snake's been edited out
When and why? That was something that nobody actually objected to, why get rid of it?

>>36487781
Calm the hell down, Knight.

We're sticking to the animated canon as much as possible, and that's all I'll say.

>>36487803
I had no idea that the molten iron was the point of contention. It first appeared you were spazzing for no reason at all, and I accepted that because it happens all the time on 4chan.

Snake was removed last night. If you look, you'll see it's not there anymore.

Truly, miscommunication is the greatest trouble that plagues man.

>>36487865
why did you get rid of the snake? That wasn't something that I saw anyone disagree with, it was just the ways to kill the snake.

Alright I decided to make an animal character in case there's ever an all animal party. Here's the stats for the animal.

-Hedgehogs
Size: Small
Natural weapons: Claws and Spines provide +2 to Brawl.
Racial Traits:
Prickly/IT HURTS MY HANDS: All damage taken from Brawl attacks is also reflected back at the attacker.
Rollin' Around: You can spend a Will point to go into Ball mode for your next two turns. Ball Mode grants +2 Robustness and Agility, along with making all attacks agility based.
Nocturnal: -1 Sensibility during the day, +2 Sensibility during the night.
Attribute Bonuses: +2 Agility, +2 Robustness, -2 Intelligence.

Looks good?

>>36487708
>You made him super-powerful
Actually compared to other Kings the Horned King isn't actually that powerful. He's like right in the middle. Plus we haven't statted must of the other Kings so there really isn't a comparison yet. And PC's are monstrously lethal, even at Zero tier, so I think it balances out.

>>36487814
Didn't come up in the movie, threw it out while I was editing anyways.

Also, to clarify: He doesn't turn into a snake after you've killed him the first time. He turns into a snake after you've killed him the first time AND he no longer has any strikes left.

>>36487938
So he had 3 lives? First when he's just the Horned King, second when he is Arawn, third when he's a snaky version of Arawn? Also, I think we should change it so he has to have time to draw the power into him, so it isn't automatic if he's blindsided

>>36487992
No, my intention was for him not to regain any strikes when he becomes a serpent (it's more of a death throes thing) though I'd certainly be open to that IF he decide he needs a buff. And given that he's probably got lots of Cauldronborn around to block PCs, he can certainly survive needing to take 3 rounds to absorb Arawn's power.

>>36487919
the Robustness buff doesn't really make sense. Hedgehogs are not known for their powerful physiques. I'd go +2 Agi +2 Int -2 Rob, instead, just because he's so small.

>>36488075
This is my proposal:
1. Normal HK. Down to 2 or 3 strikes, will use a turn to absorb power, become snaky HK
2.Snaky HK. +k1 to everything, other powers. If you hurt him enough, he dies.

Don't throw too many twists at the players just because you can. If he's underpowered, we can buff his stats, not make fighting him a 3-hour slog because he gets back up every time he is about to die, a bit stronger. He's not an anime protagonist.

>>36487919
Robustness bonus is really odd, also the second part of the racial power is superfluous since all melee attack can be made with either Robustness or Agility without needing a trait.

>>36488190
Alright, but 3 things:
1) No snakes. The reason I included the snake form is because of something he did in the books, and the more we work with this the less sense it makes.
2) We should still have shortcuts to his defeat: magic weapons do double strikes, and sacrificing oneself to the Black Cauldron will most likely kill him.
3) He should still get all his strikes and a single will point back from absorbing Arawn's powers.

>>36488389
Fine, although Hivan could easily kill him. Just saying. If we wanted to playtest it, a Heroic Hivan could probably kill him a turn or two.

>>36488504
Just to be clear, this is just because I would send in all of my little drones to cauldron-dive and that would kill him.

>>36488504
By jumping into the Black Cauldron? It hasn't been determined exactly how it's protected yet; there could be the webs of countless Cauldronborn spiders blocking your way.

>>36488564
I'd rule that they aren't smart enough for their sacrifice to be meaningful.

>>36488564
The sacrifice should be made willingly. I don't think that a mindless drone executing the queen's order counts.

>>36488592
Damn. I was looking forward to one-shotting a king with my little bees.

Now that we got that settled: What other Kings should have that 'free intimidate check against everyone every turn' power that HK and Shan have? My list is
>Maleficent's dragon form, possibly her normal form too.
>Kraken-scale Ursula
>Motherfucking Shere Khan
>Motherfucking Mor'du
>All seamonsters
>Firebird
>Churned Up Bog, except he gets double

By wizards he means trolls. By they he means said trolls. Nobody admitted to being an SJW. Please leave.

>>36488854
Assuming that you aren't trolling (a low shot, but I'm one to take the bait) we've had plenty of trolls on the project and usually call them wizards due to their insistence on 3.5e magicians.

Don't give the troll attention. Back to serious business, is anyone up for the last K/L/R?

>>36488854
Nah, Knightfag just gets extra butthurt over anything to do with Villains Victorious. He wants it to be his own little pet setting and autistrages about twice a thread. He's like the BType of Disney, don't take it personally.

It's like you believe that has some kind of merit.

Time to adjust Elsa. A lot of people have said that it needs doing, and as the one who made the version of her that we currently have on the wiki, I feel like I should bring it up. Also, it'll give us something to talk about other than shitposters. Just ignore them all from now on, otherwise they just derail us.

Traits: -Ice Queen's Madness – Elsa is quick to lash out, and rolls to calm her down suffer a +10 to difficulty.
-Frozen Heart – Social strikes against Elsa have a +10 to difficulty, but deal triple strikes.
-Following – This unit is followed by a massive Ice Golem with 18 Robustness, 10 prevent harm and 12 Brawl. The golem loves Elsa and will protect her by fighting anyone who tries to physically hurt her or makes her angry.
-And the North Wind Blows – Elsa is surrounded by constant icy winds that can damage players who roll less than 20 on a ROBUSTNESS-based Prevent Harm roll that they must take every turn that Elsa is angry at them. (This TN is only 16 if they are wearing warm clothing)
-Queen – This unit is a Queen, and receives appropriate bonuses.
Powers: -Freeze – Renders one specific unit unable to act until a different unit spends five turns helping them up.
-Ice Shards – Spends a will point to make two ranged attacks against every member of the party with no penalties.
-Ice Shield – Gives a +15 to prevent harm for 2 rounds at a cost of one will point.
-Ice Palace –Elsa can create a frozen fortress to hide in, and will do so if she is down to 5 or fewer strikes and it is her turn. The players can try to stop her retreat with a TN 45 Persuade check, but if she flees, she will have full Strikes and be totally recovered before she’s willing to come out again, days or possibly weeks later.
-Ice Golems – Can create Snow Golem Mooks at a rate of 2d6 per Will point spent.

>>36489331
Shhh, you'll enrage his fanboys/sock puppets.

>>36489305
Harder to convincr in-combat that is. Raising it above tn35 and tn45 when mad takes her out of on-a-roll territory for out of combat.

You know, we seem to have a damn good team for homebrewing in these threads. What other systems would you guys like to see done after we've got this one sorted? Shouldn't take that much longer.

>>36489354
As written up til now, that means she can just Ice Palace+Snow Golems and even Malificent's dragon breath attack, full bore with no interruption, couldn't kill her.

That's kind of stupid.

>>36489354
Freeze seems a little... annoying. Considering how fast combat is having minimum two people doing pretty much nothing for five turns is pretty big. Maybe making it five actions?

>>36489435
Actions and turns are the same.

So we got one dude thinking this is SJw shit and one dude who REALLY hates Knightfag.
I don't know if it's good or bad that the appearance of these people promoted discussion.

>>36489419
This was Rules Light don't forget, that's why discussion and creation went by pretty smoothly.

>>36489363
She's not supposed to be On-A-Roll
Why does everyone want Kings to be on-a-roll level? That is literally what Hero level is made for!
On-A-Roll is for challenging Villains and MAYBE the most pathetic Kings, like the Slims and shit, but we made a tier just for the Kings, and Elsa is one of the most powerful Queens in the game

>>36489354
>prevent harm 16
That's a lot, but with only Agility 10 she'll roll +26 on Prevent Harm, which is in the reach of standard On-A-roll players.

Her standard attack Ranged attack is +28, which looks okay.

Ice Shield needs to be +10, not +15. That's waay too much.

How many Will points does she have?

>>36489464
Nah there are 2 actions a turn.

>>36489465
Just ignore them, they aren't interested in talking.

>>36489421
Elsa is one of the most powerful magicians in the universe.

>>36489465
The system doesn't seem THAT rules-light. I mean, sure, we don't have hit points, but is that really all you need to be rules light?

>>36489354
Athletics and Robustness should be halved, at least. Maybe Int should be closer to 4? She is female, after all

>>36489479
Out of combat is very differnet from in-combat fuckhead. Make her hard to kill with swords, not impossible to calm down.

>>36489495
It's a little heavier than FATE core, which is considered generally to be a rules-light system. The entire game can be explained in ~15 minutes in person, unlike a lot of games I could note.

>>36489465
>I don't know if it's good or bad that the appearance of these people promoted discussion.
Good that we started real discussion to spite the wizards, bad that we weren't discussing it already on our own.

>>36489464
Players get 2 actions per turn, so Freeze would be doing 2 and a half turns.

>>36489421
Quite. I'd try to come up with an alternative, but I'm not familiar with the film.

>>36489480
Wouldn't that mean that you spend the campaign just killing every tier-appropriate enemy in one area before moving on to the next? Seems a little dumb.

>>36489522
Fuck OFF sockpuppet wizard.
Next response will be 'OMG SOCIAL JUTSICE' and then to that 'SEE U GUYS ARE SJWSZ", all by the samefag wizard.

>>36489545
Alright, so mental note: When the thread's slow, shitpost to start it up again.

>>36489480
>Elsa is one of the most powerful magicians in the universe

Is this new to the fluff, or are you just ignoring every other magic user in Disney because MUH ELSA?

>>36489561
Ignore the troll.

>>36489548
How do you figure? Generally, players shouldn't be taking on people much more powerful than they can handle without help. So players will defeat a king, move to Hero, and spend most of the game helping people out in countries below their means.

>>36489561
Just ignore them, once again.

>>36489585
Says so on the disney wiki.

>>36489585
Go ahead and name three wizards canonically stronger.

>>36489419
Considering all the additional stuff like Don Bluth, Dreamworks, Under da Sea etc. people have been asking for I don't think we'll be over as soon as you may think.

>>36489522
gtfo, asshole

I'm not sure how I like freeze, actually. I think we may want to crap it and make a new power to replace it that doesn't make a player sit there doing nothing, which makes the game less fun to play. Keeping the game fun is always top priority.

>>36489585
No, it's a genuine thing that happens in the films. Jafar, before his wish with the Genie, can hypnotise people. Ursula, before she got her hands on the Trident, could do alchemy or some shit. Grimhilde could scry and make poison items. Elsa? She could summon castles, freeze entire kingdoms, shoot rays of icy death and create life.
>>36489626
Ignore the troll.

>>36489626
Something that gives a penalty to physical actions?

>>36489585
Nuh-uh, wizard! Elsa is the best because ice and castles! Djinn-Jafar might have destroyed cities with a thought, but if Elsa blasts you directly in the heart you'll die in less than a week!

>>36489626
Freeze is the only thing keeping Elsa from being low on-a-roll tier in-combat. We need to buff her, not fucking nerf. Jesus. The entire point is that she can be calmed down by someone who's a ridiculously good talker for whatever reason (TN35 and 45) but fighting her gets u fugged unless you're hero-tier.


>>36489659
I know you're a troll but your retardation and samefaggotry still makes me mad.

+3 bonus on Deceive and Persuade rolls if the target does not already trust the speaker

-Time for Panic.
+4 to any roll used to escape a dangerous situation while on one Strike or no Strikes.

-KING
This unit is a KING. It gets +10 to Persuade and/or Intimidate its servants to do anything if opposed in some way, and can automatically make them obey if nobody is trying to incite rebellion among them.

-Father to His Men
When on a quarter of his maximum Strike total or less, this King’s subjects may spend one Will point to take a blow for him.

-You and What Army?
The King is very unlikely to fight alone. Unless separated from them, treat him as being accompanied by a group of: At least one elephant, three vultures, an assortment of both jungle animals and humans, in addition to the hypnotized King Christopher Robin and whatever animals he has currently generated. Treat one of these enemies as a Villain, and the rest ranging from Lackeys to Mooks. If encountered outside of his territory, replace all of the above (not counting Christopher Robin) with local equivalents.

---Powers---
-Ssssssomniferousssss: At the beginning of a round where you are not under attack, spend a Will Point to activate a hypnotic gaze. Characters that do not avoid making eye contact by succeeding in an Endure check each round become entranced and cannot act until aided by another character. Kaa may then give a command that does not threaten the life of the character (as per the Gift of Kaa Power). Kaa may affect multiple targets in one round with Somniferous and can maintain it indefinitely until he is injured.
-Both Eyes, if You Please : Spend a Will Point to perform a three-minute song upon a character that has already been affected by Somniferous. If not interrupted, the character is permanently considered to be one of Kaa’s subjects until his death.
Never Leave This Jungle: Rebellion cannot be incited in Kaa’s subjects except through magical means, and he may apply half of his King bonus to any character who has been affected by Somniferous and is not one of his subjects.

>a literal god

Wow, you're a faggot.

>>36489708
Rasputin and Maleficent are below Elsa in power. Rasputin isn't in this universe. Horned one is generally a weak magician other than teleportation.

Hey, I've seen these threads a lot over the last month so I decided to finally stop in and give the thing a closer look. Pretty neat idea, keep up the good work.

So with all of the canonical Disney protagonists being dead (I assume? Please correct me if I'm wrong) and the world being entirely run by the victorious villains, there's a really unique, oppressive atmosphere that this setting has going for it that's got me interested.

I see at the moment that work is being done to stat out the main bad guys, and the OP makes mention of the Heroes and their allies, so I am a bit curious as to what the PCs goals in a campaign run with this system is actually supposed to be. Is the idea that the PCs are just freedom fighters of some sort, roving the lands and freeing the kingdoms from the warring villains, or is there more of a metaplot in place to this that I could gleam from a particular one of the pastebins or google docs? I'd really love to help out this project, but I'd just like to know where to start getting up to speed with the direction of things.

>>36489708
>including anything from the shitty Princess Swan movies when they aren't Disney, and when even if we had to outsource because we needed a sorcerer in Russia, Rasputin from Anastasia would be a much, much better guy fro the job.
You shame your family.

>>36489708
>malificent
>more powerful than elsa

We've been over this, faggot.

>>36489626
*scrap it, not crap it

>>36489687
I'm not saying nerf her, but we should scrap one specific power because it makes one person have to sit out for a good long while the others fight, and that would make the game really boring for that person. We want to make Elsa strong, but not make her no fun to play against.

>>36489758
Well, as far as I'm aware, beyond Rourke's war with Ursula, the clusterfuck that is Japan, the Spiritual Rebellion and Eldorado vs the US, there doesn't seem to be much of a metaplot at the moment.

>>36489585
We actually discussed this last thread.
Elsa has a shit ton of Raw Power, but little technique, and is easy to predict because she's just doing what follows her emotions.

Jafar is also pretty powerful, either a bit stronger or a bit weaker then Elsa, not sure, but has way more technique and is a bit more unpredictable. He also may or may not have one wish left for the Genie.

Ursula has I think the most Raw Power, but has the worst technique and is pretty straightforward. She does technically have the most land though.

Facilier has little Raw Power, but is arguably the best in Technique, and second-best in Unpredictability, since all his power comes from his Friends.

Malicifent has high Raw Power, high Technique, and is the most Unpredictable, because she's a Fae.

The Horned King is the second Weakest, above Facilier but below every other sorcerer, has a fair amount of Technique, and is also pretty straightforward, lacking in unpredictablity. However, he has a shit-ton of magical items and the Cauldron for a shit ton of Mooks and maybe an extra life to balance it out.

>>36489758
Who's dead and who's not is largely a campaign by campaign thing. If it's a case where the villain's explicit goal to kill the hero, such as Shere Khan and Mowgli, then that hero will obviously be dead. Otherwise, the GM will pick options from the rumor mill or come up with his own stuff.

>>36489804
Jafar had the most Raw Power, I thought, because he is explicitly made THE STRONGEST SORCERER... IN THE WORLD!

>>36489612
Jafar used his wish to become the most powerful magic user in the world, so he's stronger by default. Ursula with the trident is pretty much all-powerful in the sea. Maleficent is strong but technically she's a fae. Some anon in the previous thread had the idea to classify wizards based on raw power, technique and variety; so Elsa had a lot of raw power but near-zero technique and variety, while Maleficient had the most imprevedibility and Ursula finer control.

>>36489744
Malificent is a non-magical dragon in this setting you're aborting?

The Dark Fairy that froze time and created an impenetrable thorn forest at will? And manipulated the fates themselves to allow a magically and physically protected princess to prick her finger on a spinning wheel, giving the king of a fantasy land 16 years advance warning and an exact date of said assassination?

A non-magical dragon?

Dropped so hard

>>36489771
And it's still fucking retarded, as the villain that consistently gets depicted as the big bad whenever disney villains get together Maleficent should hands down be one of the biggest threats in the game period

>>36489853
Alright, goodbye.

>>36489804
>>36489832
Calm your autism, Ponderous. We've already discerned that Jafar is more powerful but it's almost entirely due to an outside (divine) source, Ursula has almost no power but the Trident gives godlike abilities, while Elsa has raw power just a scrap lower than Jafar's since she would be the most powerful otherwise, but it's naturally-occurring.
>>36489853
Carefully read that post again, then come back and explain to everyone why you are retarded.

>>36489853
What we mean is that Maleficient is technically a fae, she doesn't count as a wizard because her magic is all-natural.

>>36489833
No, anon, Jafar isn't allowed to overshadow Elsa. That's the rules here. Therefore, he decided not to wish for genie-dom or ultimate power, but something else instead maybe

>>36489858
Chernobog is the big bad. Maleficent is depicted as a 'big bad' because she's just an evil, conniving asshole, not due to powerlevel.

>>36489758
>So with all of the canonical Disney protagonists being dead (I assume? Please correct me if I'm wrong)

You know, I'm still not exactly clear how that works

Like, I assume that certain heroes HAVE to be dead in order for the "Villains VICTORIOUS" thing to work (Gaston kills the Beast, Hades kills Hercules, etc.) but I don't think we ever established definitively what became of a lot of the protags.

I guess you'd have like, Tiana and Naveen still being frogs out in the swamps or Pinocchio still chilling in the belly of that whale, but it's really hard to say what would have become of most of the main heroes in these scenarios.

I think it goes like this

TECHNIQUE
Facilier > Malicifent > Horned King > Jafar > Elsa > Ursula

UNPREDICTABILITY
Malicifent > Facilier > Jafar > Horned King > Elsa = Ursula

>>36489922
Well, depending on how/when Aladdin died he might not have made the wish for ultimate sorcery. If Al died in the Cave of Wonders with His Eternal Reward then there is a good chance Jafar wouldn't have to make the wish for ultimate magical power and could use it for something else.

>>36490083
Maleficent is too high on raw power. Switch her and Elsa, and Technique she needs to be swapped with HK.

>>36490048
What, like he was incapable of actually pulling off in the film?

Beast is a far more interesting villain than Gaston, and it actually makes sense to Disnery canon instead of averting it in a weird, wish-fulfillment kind of way.

>>36490083
That's the most ludicriously wrong list I've ever fucking seen.

Trident>Jafar>Elsa>>Malicifent>>>>>>>>>>>>Horned King>>>>>>>>>>Facilier

Facilier>>>>>Jafar>Maleficent>Horned King>Ursula>Elsa

Facilier>>Maleficent>Horned King>Jafar>>>>>>>>Elsa/Ursula

>>36490130
Much better

>>36490101
So, by twisting it around to fit Elsa being more powerful, Elsa is more powerful?

Hey my list wasn't that far off, that one is better though, I agrre with that.
But wouldn't Maleficent still be above Facilier in Unpredictably? Because while he is pretty unpredictable for a human, she is a Fae, a race known for doing weird-ass shit.

>>36490130
try
Genie Jafar>Trident Ursula>Malificent>Elsa>Horned King>Facilier

For power.

>>36490254
Maleficent is less powerful than Elsa, still.

>>36490254
Why won't you fuck off, wizard?

I don't give two shits if Elsa is more powerful or not but if the GM decides from the rumor mill that Aladdin died in the cave of wonders and Jafar never wished for supreme magical power than Jafar is weaker. I personally prefer Jafar to be the baddest fucker around since he has more personality than most Disney villains and his song was a reprise of Prince Ali. Not everything is a conspiracy. Jafar can go either way, ded Aladdin in the cave of wonders or crazy Aladdin in Arendelle because of rocket launch and I believe most prefer the latter as it's a better plot hook.

>the fucking tident less powerful than jafar, even with genieshit
>elsa less powerful than malificent


The entire last thread was dedicated to sorting out this shit, and you retards STILL push for it.

>>36490244
not that guy, but you're doing that pretty well on your own

>>36490300
>Not that guy, but that one troll who's been samefagging the entire thread to push an agenda is totally right guys, you all are totally just /co/shipping faggots

Ok, buddy.

>>36490254
Jafar isn't a genie you stupid twat

>>36490299
Malificent can do literally anything Elsa can do and more. Autists hugboxing over "well Malificent is just a non magical drasgon!!" in the last thread is meaningless.

No, he just wishes to be one with no master but himself.

Then conjures volcanoes, earthquakes and palace-destroying lightning bolts at a whim.

It was an entire Disney movie, dude.

>>36489707
What is his game plan in combat? His Melee is only +17, and his Prevent Harm is only +20. He's really weak in this.

>>36490363
>pls respond ;-;

>>36490382
Social Strikes, look at his Charm, Persuasion, and Deceit.

>>36490382
STOP MATH RAPING ME SHITLORD

STATS ARE A SOCIAL CONSTRUCT

>>36490341
Can Maleficent create sentient life by accident?

>>36490341
Elsa has a more specific purview, and in the theoretical situation where she remains the lone Ice Queen letting her powers go out of control then yeah, she's more powerful than Maleficent IN THAT VERY SPECIFIC REGARD. She can throw a more powerful ice spell, she can do things with her specific type of magic that Maleficent can't do... with her specific type of magic.

Maleficent is the Wizard to Elsa's Sorcerer. She has a wide variety of powers, including a multitude of curses and utility spells that can do whatever the fuck she wants. When she wants to get into raw power, she goes Dragon Form. Now, Dragon Form is very powerful, and has a lot of very neat side-effects like growing tougher, being able to fly, and having bitchin' breath attacks, and I do agree that Maleficent could beat Elsa in a straight up fight - Mostly because Dragon Breath is a natural counter to Really Cold Shit, and Elsa isn't THAT much more powerful than Maleficent. It'd be a suitably epic fight, though.

TL:DR - Elsa has better burst damage and a more powerful single trick that she's used to all sorts of different effects, but Maleficent can do a large variety of different powers and spells and especially curses that are nearly un-breakable... But have to have a loophole out of. In a straight-up spellfight Elsa would win, but in a true Wizard's Duel Maleficent would win because she can bring up counters to Elsa's power, has more abilities to bring to bear, and can be a sneaky little shit.

>>36490299
>>36490341

Didn't we reach an agreement last thread that Maleficent is overall more powerful than Elsa because, while having a little less Raw Power, her Technique and Versatility are astronomically higher?

>>36490294
Fuck off, wizard. Aladdin died in the Cave, end of story, only Stormfag pissbabies have as problem with that, Elsa isTHE most powerful, end of discussion.

Next topic?

>>36490494
We were talking about Raw Power, not overall power.

>>36490505
We're talking about Kings now.

>>36490448
THAT'S A SHITMYN OF SHITCOLOR, STOP RAPING ME YOU FUCKING TURDBURD.

>>36490432
Duly noted. Shouldn't his Prevent Harm be a bit higher, though?

>>36490505
Man, this thread is mad.

>>36490494

You've got to be fucking kidding me. You really wrote up an entire SJW-like post just so you could respond to it and claim the thread is full of them? How fucking pathetic are you?

>>36490505
Queen La's K/L/R. It's literally the only one left. After we do that we can finally finish the King stats.

>>36490505
So I'm a wizard for wanting the actual sorcerer who canonically wished to be the best sorcerer in the world to actually be the best, you know the guy with actual training who isn't a whiny piss baby. Also explain to me how the fuck I'm a stormfag when I want the Arabian guy to be more powerful than the white chick?

>>36490551
No, we didn't. She's the fucking Queen of Fae.

>>36490551
Non-magic meaning, can't use magic while transformed, right?

>>36490560
IGNORE
THEM
They're looking to start a fight.

>>36490601
>>36490606
She's magical in person, yes, but not as a dragon. She's also not as strong as the strongest magicians in the world but has the most magic-wielding evil minions.

>>36490580
>Elsa
>whiny piss baby

aaaaand we have misogyny, thanks for showing your true colors, not surprised you couldn't handle Elsa being the best, wizardlord

Hello, I am posting here really quick because this shit is spiraling out of control because you are all retarded and can't figure out that literally one guy is trolling you. Stop responding to him.
>>36490476
and
>>36490130

Are what we've established as canon. Stop talking to it, ignore anyone else bringing up something retarded like 'non-magical dragons' ' you are all sjws' 'i am a sjw look at me' 'you all want elsa to be about as powerful as she canonically is because you are from /frz/' or anything similar. Make Queen La's KLR, finish the billions kings we need, buff Elsa slightly if needed while ignoring this faggot.

I'll be here in roughly 3 hours to deliver that song.

>>36490580
Don't le him get to you man, he's just false-flagging to make us look like a "MUH WAIFU IS THE STRONKEST" circlejerk.

>>36490580
Most powerful sorcerer does not necessarily imply most powerful being. Which of the two is stronger isn't the problem though (since ultimately that's decided by "which is the most interesting/popular choice"), the issue is that you're being so pissy about it.

So, what bandits should we use as villains for the Wild West?

>>36490629
>Be fairy
>Change into kickass fire breathing dragon
>Mfw not allowed to cast spells in dragon form so I can't change back

>>36490382
>>36490541
Social Strikes are his main thing, yeah, might give him some boa constrictor-esque crushing power to up his melee game though. He leaves fighting to his minions (I think Father to His Men makes up for the low Prevent Harm, but I might increase it to 12 at some point) and probably spends most of the fight trying to get a party member on their own so he can hypnotize them.

I ended up statting Christopher Robin too, if anyone's interested. He's meant to be fought as a dual boss with Kaa so his powerset consists of spawning mooks, buffing/healing Kaa, and basically being as annoying as humanly possible.

>>36490687
OVIOUSLY she can still cast "Change Back" spell, because reasons

Not other spells tho

>>36490687
Where did we say that? Perhaps she has to wait for the transformation to expire, or she can force her way back into Fae form., but she can't cast magic when transformed.

>>36490686
Butch Cassidy? Babyface?

>>36490689
Please post Christopher Robin.

This is bullshit. We don't have to rank these people in terms of power, just get vague ideas of how strong everyone should be.

Back to the original topic, I'm gonna make a new statline for Elsa and post it in a few.

>>36490686
Legendary cowboys like Billy the Kid and shit?

>>36490686
Probably just the most iconic ones and the ones featured in Tall Tales. Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Pecos Bill, the stuff. Maybe we could also add a particularly powerful beast he yodelled into a loyal pet.

>>36490732
You want a table game ruleset without power rankings in various metrics?

Uuuuuuuuh

>>36490758
Slim's lieutenants would work as well.

>>36490686
>>36490730
Wait what

>>36490732
Dude, we did it for other enemies and for heroes. Why does doing it for the Kings twist your testicles?

>>36490770
>what is rules light
We're not making a simulationist game.

>>36490758
>powerful beast he yodeled into a loyal pet
I hate to suggest this but....Blue?

>>36490770
Yes, its easy. Whoever at the table has the least Social Privilege is GM, and everyone else agrees with zir decisions for their characters instead of the usual patriarchal, oppressive math of more misogynistic games

>>36490775
Villains as in "the enemy class immediately under Kings, the lieutenants/most powerful servants of each King". Slim is basically the king of the wild west, so it's logical he should have some western icons as underlings.

>>36490792
Yes, but we have Mooks, Inner Circles and Villains, don't we?

>>36490817
Yes, and we have a category for Kings. We don't have in-grouping rankings for each of them because then we get into tier-list heavy math bullshit.

>>36490730
I'm just going by the Disney animated movie Sleeping Beauty here, but didn't Malificent explicitly cast magic while in dragon form?

>>36490865
I don't think so? She breathed fire but I can't remember magic being used after she turned into a dragon.

>>36490865
Not that I remember.

>>36490865
Exhaling green and black hellflame isn't magical, duh

>>36490816
No not that
Nevermind, forget it.

>>36490893
I think that falls under 'dragon', mate.

>>36490893
A dragon without a breath attack would be a little like a stingerless scorpion, don't you think?

>>36490830
Yes, but otherwise we only have vague options of what we're going for and nobody knows what's going on. Having tables everywhere in-game just makes it less fun, but in development, it lets you know exactly how strong your villains are supposed to be and have it down in writing how to calculate it for creating new enemies. Complicated development is good because it can help to balance a game, complicated gameplay is bad because nobody wants to roll on 6 tables in one turn.

>>36490935
Are you suggesting some kind of natural process inside the dragon that produces stone-melting heat and dark fire?

Maybe Mal's trump card is turning slave humans into dragons, then vivisecting them for their internal fire organs to create a military industrial complex and industrial age

>>36490977
Each king is statted differently based on their movie traits. Villains and below have tables of what they're supposed to be statted for. We've had this discussion before.

>>36491013
Yes, that is traditionally an attribute of dragons.

Also, I think she can only turn herself into a dragon, and she doesn't really have a long-term enough plan or enough micromanagement over her minions to stage something like that.

>>36491013
They haven't thought ANY of this through., that's why it sucks.

>>36491053
Oh cool, the troll decided to show his namefagging nature.
Filtered.

>>36491050
>Yes, that is traditionally an attribute of dragons

Three different pre-Tolkien examples in folklore of fire breathing dragons, please

Or a single one with green black flames

>>36491013
I actually kinda like that idea.
The problem being though would be, I think, only she can turn herself into a dragon. It's more like a self polymorph, kinda like Madam Mim.

>>36491107
let it go. they'll make any contortions of logic necessary for Elsa to be stronger. It's the whole point of this setting.

>>36491143
Elsa is hardly a character in this setting. She sits in her castle and doesn't leave, and is adjacent to one of the few people more powerful than she is.

>>36491143
But that wasn't related to Elsa at all though

The only thing that I'm worried about is that someone new to the thread might be drawn away by this retarded nigger screaming about /frz/, and his samefaggotry making anyone potentially think that it actually exists in the system.

>>36491155
Nob, you bitch, stop feeding the goddamn trolls.

>>36491124
>It's more like a self polymorph

If this is something Knightfag wants to write into his setting to arbitrarily make Elsa viable in combat against her, then fine. Just stop pretending that it's based on anything other than rabid Frozen fandom.

Hm, okay, look mate. We never really made Elsa all that powerful. She HAS a fuckload of power but she's gonna get stomped by more than half of the current sorcerers in the setting. Ursula, Jafar, Maleficent and Hades are straight up more or equaly powerful. Facilier can dance circles around her for a while.

Just...Why do you hate the project so much, again?

---Powers---
-Now We Are Six
Generates 1d6 Mooks of randomly chosen animal types. These animals are instantly considered subjects to both Christopher Robin and Kaa.

-Braver Than You Believe, Stronger Than You Think
Spend one Will Point to provide a morale bonus to one’s allies. For each round this power is used, Kaa’s allies receive +1 on all attack checks, while Kaa and Christopher Robin’s generated allies receive a +2 bonus and recover one Strike per round. This skill remains in constant use without draining additional Will Points until Christopher Robin is injured.

-Forever, and Ever, Is A Very Long Time
Spend one Will Point to begin a five-minute song that bolsters one’s allies, in this case, Kaa. Units attempting to resist the effects of Kaa’s Somniferous power suffer a -2 on their Endure checks. If Christopher Robin performs a duet with another animal, this song’s effects may be stacked onto that unit’s performance.

The following Power may be removed at the GM's discretion:
-We’ll Always be Together
If Kaa is killed and Christopher Robin is still conscious: Spend three Will Points to generate a copy of Kaa from the power of Christopher Robin’s imagination. This copy is in every way identical to the original and is considered to be the same for all intents and purposes – it remains manifested even if Christopher Robin is then knocked out, but fades if he is killed. May be used each time Kaa is killed and he remains conscious.

I have. Like, I don't see it.

I've seen people saw that Elsa is tremendously powerful, and SHE IS. She did create an entire castle in minutes, and her whole kingdom IS frozen because of her. Thing is, the other guys are even more powerful, but that doesn't necessarily makes her weak yanno? I don't see what's the problem.

>>36491313
Well, actually Maleficent was the one I would say is equally powerful, but I'm not gonna start a shitstorm about it.

Faeries are cray cray yo, and she IS the most powerful fairy around without any sort of miraculous boosts and what have you. Who knows, maybe I'm just taking the whole "AALL THE POWERS OF HEEEEEEELL" thing too literally

Can we just, y'know, calm down for a bit?

>>36491107
The first example of a European fire-breathing dragon is generally accepted to be the dragon fought by Beowulf. Pic is from 1908. Tolkien was actually a scholar who studied Beowulf, and considered Beowulf's dragon, along with Fafnir from Norwegian legend, to be one of 2 real dragons from European folklore.

Glad you guys liked it! This wasn't even a statblock to start with; I was trying some writefaggotry on Kaa/Louie/Bagheera and gave up halfway through. Featured such amazing plot twists as the three of them plotting to keep the Hunter's Club from killing Shere Khan because they fear the resulting power vacuum would lead to a human invasion, Bagheera getting gradually more irritated every time someone mentions Baloo, and Kaa using Christopher Robin to carry him around and talking through him like some creepy puppet when he realises how much this pisses Louie off.

Also the one elephant mentioned in Kaa's stats is meant to be Haithi Jr., because why not.

>>36491107
The Biblical Leviathan is also described as breathing fire.

thread is now archived:http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?searchall=Disney+Villains+Victorious

>>36491565
You know what else is good about this extra power of Robin's is? It explains why Shere Khan didn't off Kaa. because he did but it didn't take

Alright, so I'm gonna try to stat up Maleficent and post her on the next thread, but before I do that

Do we have any racial guidelines for the fae, or can I go with what I think fits?

>>36491818
whatever works. we'll nitpick it later, just get the rough draft down.

>>36491818
Follow your heart, little anon.

>>36491818
Go with what fits. Presumably, there'll be two stat blocks, anyway.

>>36491845
>>36491843
>>36491836

Very well. Just one question before I go at it, then.

Sensible, Smart, or Charismatic?

I wanna go with sensible for some reason, but I'm not sure if it's the best fit

>>36491863
Smart

>>36491818
Quick guideline:
1. Dragon flames can't melt magically created ice.

2. Malificent can't cast spells in dragon form.

3. All characters must only be able to defeat Elsa by Social Strikes. No mechanics that give characters more fighting potential than Elsa are allowed.

Go for it!

>>36491914

Do us a favor and at least try to act like the person you're trying to impersonate

>>36491914
You typed your name wrong Erowid.

>>36491914
3 seems bad. You just condemned the physical characters to awkwardly trying to intimidate Elsa.

>>36491957
are you actually retarded

It's Erowid in disguise. Don't listen to him.
>>36491944
>>36491955
Don't feed the troll.

>>36491863
Smart, I think. She's a talented schemer and plotter.

Remember that Maleficent should transform into dragon form with one of her abilities, perhaps temporarily making her a Robustness character?

>>36492007

No worries, I got an idea for it.

>>36491957
It's hilarious that you're seriously considering that post.

>>36492007
I just realized that since Maleficent AND Madam Mim can transform into dragons, we should probably make it into two different powers. One called Greater Dragon Transformation for Maleficent and one called Lesser Dragon Transformation for Madam Mim.

>>36491914
Actually, while I know this is Erowid in disguise, I think magical ice being unmeltable makes sense. Like, magical fire presumably is hotter than regular fire, so why shouldn't magical ice be permafrost?

>>36492124
Perhaps it takes much longer to melt with normal fire than usual? Atlantean laser weapons and Holy Fire aside, of course.

>>36492124
Olaf was magical ice, and he could be melted by plain old sunlight.

>>36492124
Maybe we should consider implementing something like this for normal fire so murderhobos can't kill everyone by taking a flamethrower to that bigass staircase of the ice palace.

>>36491914
>impersonating Knightfag
>not mentioning knights, Prydain, or How Things Oughta Be once

Man, at least try.

>>36492144
