>What are their chances?
Once they make it, pretty good.
One of the legates is her half brother (unlike her he was never aknowledged) and he loves her to bits/has zero interest in the throne.
I'll probably put in a plot by officers urging him to declare himself Emperor and march on the capital himself/team up with the southeners, but once that is dealt with there should be no problem.
Maybe some shenanigans to make sure the border is safe from goblin raiders while the army's away. Gives the little dude in the party some time to shine.

Ace is a Guardsman who survived his first deployment and got picked up by the inquisition, proceeds to go into massive debt so that he can get augmented by the officio assassinorum all so he can carry and fire an auto-cannon.

Vahkious is a tech priest who makes servitors, are skirts the borders of tech heresy. He made guard servitors for an inquisitorial reliquary. He's the most practical of the group and reluctant leader. Don't mind that he's secretly a planeswalker.

Eisen is a useless piece of shit.

Hexis was an experiment of fabious bile who wound up dumped in the lap of the inquisition, he's a mutant who can reanimate the dead with his blood, and is also definitely a clone of david bowie.

the mushroom dude was a middle-aged weirdo from an underground colony of halflings, he left and was the gravedigger to a nearby town (hence the shovel) before adventuring. Had some dubiously necromantic mushroom-themed magic that would creep the rest of the party out before the campaign died due to aforementioned missing GM. Stuff like raising/controlling giant cordyceps-infected spiders or blasting people with poisonous spores. The mushrooms on his hat were mostly stylized.

Oh, I could go on. I've been using them in one form or another for ten years at this point. In summary, they're prohibition-era mobsters on a Rogue Trader scale. Imagine the Monthy Python sketch where a couple of mafiosos walk into a general's office and go "nice army you got there, be a shame if something happened to it" and that's basically it. Their family motto is "if you can't twist an arm, you may as well break it".

See pic, its a face-plate style helm. Used by nobles from his homeland.

>How does Ocuil avoid getting fired or discharged from the company.

Well, a wizard is a wizard, no matter how insubordinate or annoying. they were quite rare in the setting, and were a huge asset to the mercenary company. Especially moderately powerful wizards like Ocuil and Angelus.

Funny thing though, after making a deal with a blood spirit that he was unable to upkeep, Ocuil had to confess to being responsible for the ghoul infestation plaguing the companies camp, and so he was hacked to death by a few of his battle brothers (who had lost wives and children to the Ghouls), all with the tacit approval of Sergeant Carpenter.

>How are Gillieasbaig MacNeis's off-the-book sales handled mechanically.

This was run in a pretty crunchy system called Mythras, so I actually calculated the companies typical operating costs and put Gillieasbaig's player in charge of them, letting him cook the books as he wished. People didn't really question him because he never took enough to deprive men of arms or food. He made most of it by running the gambling and prostitution among the camp followers.

>What keeps Casdianus and Claudia together?

Obligation, not knowing any other way of living, a bit of genuine love perhaps. Sadly Claudia (and the twins she was carrying) was killed by Ghouls before we got a lot of time to delve into this arc.

We had devised a plan to trap and deal with the beast, in fear of it's great strength, because all the monsters of the mists are stronger than a grizzly bear at minimum, and a grizzly is stronger than any human in the Savage Worlds system.

We had purchased 4 25ft lengths of chain with barbed ends which we had tied around nearby trees. The plan was that I (The Knight) would draw it's attention while the other melee character (The Woodsman) would pierce it with the barbed ends. Once all four (or three if I wasn't faring well) were in the beast we would step back and ignite it with the Witch-Fire Gun I had purchased (I was the primary source of funding for the group, owing to my wealthy background) and watch it burn to death.

That is not what ended up happening, instead the beast took one look at me, detecting my hindrance of The Hunter! (Monsters of the Mists prioritize this character for attacks) and summoned the phantoms of those it had already killed in the past.

Our plan then had to be adapted to dealing with these as well, so while the beast of the party dealt with the shades with ranged attacks, I would hold the beast off long enough for them to join me (in case it's not obvious, my character was entirely built around preparing for the fights and then tanking as much as possible, my ability to deal damage is only secondary to my ability to not die.)

Fortunately, the beast, while incredibly strong, was only a moderately decent fighter. His ability to fight was further reduced by the fumes of our plague doctor, Dr. Corban.

The first wave of phantoms was dealt with fast enough, but then the beast summoned more. At this point we were getting desperate and the plan then changed to most of the party holding off the phantoms while the sniper and I killed off the beast.

Cont.

>>76475931

In a incredible twist of fate, the Witch Fire Gun set the beast alight, and the burn damage exploded (the dice came up their maximum value, which then meant we had to reroll the dice and add the damage together).

The exploded damage ended up being something around 45, which was more than enough to immediately burn the Soul Eater to a crisp.

We got a nifty blade and necklaces out of the deal (blade can force a corpse to answer a question it knew in life, necklaces increase damage taken but allow wearer to attack approaching targets immediately)

My suggestion to eat the beast was turned down, and we moved on to the next monster. A so called Bull of Heaven.

I only have one more picture in the style of the previous, and I deliberately didn't put much effort into it because I still have the bull to draw once we confront it (next session, we spent 2 sessions investigating and preparing for it)

The other picture is when we are attacked by individuals who pick the equipment off of hunters that fight the bull and die, they got greedy and tried to kill us themselves as to preserve the loot it's crushing hooves.

From right-to-left:
>Tachi
Our Thanatos and frontliner. She was pretty quiet out of combat but had a propensity to launch headlong into groups of bad guys like an angry cannonball and tearing mooks to shreds.
She was the character who arguably had the most backstory set before the campaign; she had served humanity in the Necromancer Wars (the calamity in Nechronica that ended all life on the Earth and doomed the planet to being an undead hellscape) and her father was one of the surviving faction's best and brightest. Ostensibly, a lot of her cyborg modifications came from him, but no one knows how she got her set of mechanical crab legs because her father was dead long before she lost her original ones.
At some point before the events of the campaign, she had tried to launch herself into orbit and faced the party's Necromancer in combat, but he rebuffed her and launched her back down to Earth. We're not sure how she ended up in the stasis facility she was found in.

>Protoca
Group's Stacy. That means she gets stronger when you hurt her. Her mutations are awkward, uneven, and she is in a perpetual state of physical agony as her body fights not to rip itself apart under its own enhanced strength.
Pretty dour person, as you can imagine. But she cares selflessly for the rest of the party and does the best she can to protect all of them in the heat of combat. Which is partially fueled by her martyr complex.
Her mental construction is... kinda odd. Protoca is sharing headspace with several different psyches, with one being herself and one being the original owner of her body, whom Protoca was a clone of before being destroyed. Somehow their egos latched onto one another, and it was implied that Protoca also absorbed/rescued the egos of several other clones over the course of the campaign.

RIP. I forgot to mention that Protoca was the one who woke up Port and Protoca from stasis at the start of the campaign. She's by far the most experienced member of the party in any fashion, IIRC.

>Lily
One of Tachi's old teammates from before the campaign. The party rescued her from Tachi's old team, who had all perished or gone mad after Tachi's last attempt to fight the Necromancer.
She was actually that session's bossfight, but enough good conversation checks and a lucky headshot in the first turn of combat allowed us to incorporate her into the group.
Lily:
has one arm (she tore off her mutant one after the combat with her)
is outrageously fast
has moderate cybernetic enhancements
is scary good with a lightsaber
and is completely mute
Her and Tachi sometimes communicate using a particular form of one-handed sign language and the two of them became an item in the epilogue of the campaign.

>Port
Port arguably settled in as the leader of the group after she found her apocalypse legs. She started the campaign with her only armament being a psychic gun built into her left hand (because we didn't understand anything about Nechronica's rules) and began to progressively cyberize herself after it became apparent she was a weak point in the team's combat ability. She also picked up a 20mm autocannon as her main armament.
She's an eternal optimist and arguably the heart of the party.
It came to light over the course of the campaign that she was actually the combination of three different egos.
First: she is a modified clone of one Samantha Thampson, a person of interest to the Necromancer because they actually caused a combat android to spontaneously generate a soul. Port inherited a portion of her memories and personality.
Second: She latched onto some of one Cleoh Thampson's personality and memories when she woke up from stasis, who was Samantha's caretaker and an exceptional soldier. Cleoh is also the person Protoca was cloned from.

Third: B3-206, who was the combat robot Samantha accidentally gave a soul. It's assumed this is where Port inherited a lot of her combat ability, tactical knowledge, and technical knowledge from (Port gave herself several in-field surgeries to add cybernetic parts, like new eyes, ears, and replacing her flesh limbs with hardier replacements). Bizarrely, he was actually still functional at the time of the Port campaign and the party was able to recover him and add him into the party as an NPC helper. He was highly protective of Port and kind of became her dad figure over the course of the game, though for a lot of the time his voicebox was broken.

>Hope
A clone from Protoca's line, though from a different batch. She's a natural empath and has some limited psychic offensive ability, though it's hard for her to control it.
Easily the most innocent member of the group; she had been in suspended animation since before humanity fell and her life had been mostly pleasant before the fall.
The party found her in a tower in a decrepit city. The scientists in charge of her had tried to turn her into a massive transmitter to try and calm the rabid undead consuming the city (she was very good at calming turbulent emotions) but their efforts were ultimately not enough to save the city.
Fun fact: she never picked up a single weapon until the last fight of the campaign, and then she missed every shot she took.
Hope kind of became the party's moral compass, and the whole group was very protective of her once they started looking after her.

>Also what it happening in the background?
The white spire is a supermassive tower that extends high up in the atmosphere and currently contains one 'Subject Empyrean' who was basically the progenitor of the zombie plague that put the final nail in humanity's coffin. The Necromancer can't contain her there anymore, so he's crashing his orbital superstructure (the giant circle) into the tower to bury her. He's still on it.

I actually have a commission of my lads that I got in honor of our finale. From left to right:
Yuuki "Fuji' Fujikawa - A sniper infiltrator adept who's also the youngest of the team, kinda. He's about the closest thing to a shonen hero you'll find in the 6th world. A little bit of Nero from DMC in there. Now with cool cyberarm to replace one he lost.
Pinball - He has a real name but 'Pinball' fits better. Rampant pyromancy. Norse tradition. Working on becoming a better person. Could probably burn down all of CalFree if he tried.
Tom "Tom" Lastname - A genetic experiment that escaped from captivity. Severe amnesia and psychopathy from supersoldier training. Also he thinks he is a child of the 80s. He's the face and despite his extremely weak build, always pulls out some bs to win the day.
"Uber" - If you're there, D, sorry. I can't remember how to spell his name. Prodigy child of cyberware engineers. He was orphaned by a group acting on behalf of a megacorp (he suspects) and replaced his body almost entirely with cyberware to enact his justice. Street Sam to end all street sams.
Kitt - AI hacker and the actual youngest of the group, clocking in at 5 years old, (though arguably she's more emotionally mature than Fuji). Terribly unlucky rolls but the only techy one in the group. Likes motorcycles. Very shy.

Basically Kagamine Rin until she fused with a powerful artifact that made her moe Odin. Very cute.
>Human Bard (M)
Generic Human Bard, without the horny. Ended up running the party's HQ once the player had to drop out.
>Human Battlemaster Archer
Vaguely Asian, flighty and mysterious. Searching for her sister, whose soul was in a cursed fox mask.
>Human Berserker
Nigh-unkillable lolicon mad with attack. Much more obviously Asian than Battlemaster. Based heavily on the MC from Drifters.
>Half-Elf Wild Mage
Sharp as a potato and about as good at magic. Tore reality asunder at least once.

Haughty Dickass Dyke Elf. Basically why elf hate memes exist, a fact Cunnyzerker would bring up constantly.

The 'cracks' on her mouth and eye are facial scarring/iris damage from when she took a full power rifle round through the back of her head at, like, five yards. It split her jaw in half and scrambled her skull up something good.

A former policeman with a Polish surname, he tries to defend moral actions, most actively rushes at the enemy, receives the most injuries.
A cowardly hacker girl who avoids any conflict by simply running away. Yes, even in the last battle in the game.
A young and charismatic priest of Italian descent. Despite the image of a good shepherd, he is actually a nihilist and pathological liar. He never fights himself, in the second half of the game he got a personal slave bodyguard. He is not evil, he simply prefers to solve problems in the most effective way, even if it seems to others disgusting. In the end, he was right.
Heir to wealthy parents, a guy with a submachine gun and a credit card.
Autistic friend of a rich guy. Often loses touch with reality, is afraid of the priest.
Blissful healer.

Our party for Tomb of Annihilation.
The firbolg sadly died wrestling a wereboar, and was replaced by the human barbarian Irek (whose drawing I have been extremely lazy about finishing). Irek is a native Chultan but doesn't look or act the part of either a Chultan or a barbarian. Weaker than many who choose the warrior life, he is instead blessed by the wild whim of magic.
Trakas has mellowed from travelling the jungle for 3 months. While still obsessed with mechanisms and death, he's a little nicer to his fellow party members, and is attempting to raise funds by selling his inventions.
Wildal Dreambrew is a halfling fighter who fancies himself a heroic sort. Prone to spontaneous acts of goodness and derring-do no matter how much hot water it lands him in. He has grown a little cynical after being burned a few times, but doesn't let it stop him.
Rorgand the dragonborn sorcerer has had a rough time in the jungle. He suffered so many injuries his leg is crippled, and he cannot move on-foot easily. Fortunately his giant lizard is there to be his legs in almost every situation. He's still an edgy jerk though.
Aeringr Galdan is dwarf.

He's been a lot of fun because the DM really gets into character whenever we encounter the guy. Picture a smooth-talking scam artist on the street, only his scam is that he wants to kill you and burn down the whole city.

>What class is Tim?
Fighter, but he's very poorly optimized.
>What's so cool about the spear?
It's got stacked enchantments in a world where that doesn't happen. Anything stronger than +1 is considered pretty much impossible to get and +3 and up is the shit myths are made of.
We found the spear in an old shrine dedicated to a pagan god of the sun. Wouldn't you know it, after the time spent learning what it's got we learned it has +1, returning, and a light-flavored elemental damage buff that causes fire damage and has a very low chance of blinding the enemies. Eras was a sword-and-board paladin but when we found the spear he was like "Yep, no, I'm a spear guy now" and underwent a few months worth of retraining to be able to use it right.

And now for the big question:
>How did Alexander J Peridot become a lord?
>How did Alex become a lord?

Sit around the campfire, and I will tell you the tale of one Lord Alexander J Peridot, and his rise to glory.

Early in the adventure, before we were even aware of the main story, we were in a farming village hunting down some tax-evading bandits. Two days into our search, the village came under attack by the highway men, and a fight was on!

>To be continued

>>76513799
The fight was on between the party at the time and the bandits, with the people of the village joining in since we raised a fuckload of morale.

While it was a rather bog-standard fight, the funny thing was that one of the npc farmers who joined in, armed with only his fists, got one of the luckiest set of rolls we'd ever seen. The enemy he was fighting didn't land a single hit, but the farmer got like 3 crits in a row IIRC.

We promptly began memeing the hell out of this random NPC and how he was a badass but hardworking man. Humble, but willing to throw down if he needed to. The DM promptly gave this otherwise-background character a name and we kept him in our hearts as the adventure continued.

Flash-forward about 5 or so levels and one of the PCs died via massive fire damage (3 guesses how), but the DM said the player could make a new character at 1 lower level, so we could continue playing. The player, remembering back, asked the DM to make Alexander into a PC. At first, the DM was like "Well what's the reason this humble farmer is going to join you on your quest." To which the Player responds "One of his cows is dead. He must avenge the cow." and boom, Alexander joined the quest.

He had no real starting gear, so to compensate he was made a grapple-based brawler. A slew of good rolls pretty much cemented him as an unstoppable wrestling force of nature.

This came to a head a few sessions back, where a dragon was besieging one of the major cities. After being forced to land by ballista bolts, the dragon found itself face-to-face with a shirtless man of unparalleled wrestling prowess, who proceeded to quite literally punch it until it surrendered.

For his absolutely amazing victory, the Emperor personally came out and gave Alexander a regal name (gems in this setting are tied to royalty, so people with gemstone names are quite literally only able to have them by royal decree), as well as a family name (J-something I forget) and the lord title.

Cant draw to save my life, but oh well. From left to right:
The shit stirrer, who despite the player claiming that she is just strong, given the height to weight ratio and the STR and CON stats she is clearly obese, and is trying to start shit in the group at every opportunity. Won't last long in the group.
The wanderer, perhaps the most sane member of the group if a bit bland as far as we know, tries to convince the others to take sensible steps in solving problem, with mediocre results
The hero wannabe, the only human. Due to absurd luck rolling dice and original choices resulting in showy victories he is actually succeeding in his aspirations at fast pace.
The grudger. A dwarfette tired of everyone and everything, only happy when covered in gore. Lowkey the backbone of the group.
The cherryboy. That is actually the character concept. An street rat that has somehow become the most idealist star-eyed motherfucker out there. His parterns will kill with extreme prejudice anyone trying to steal his purity.

So far we are having a blast, with surprisingly good team dynamics when the shit stirrer can't make it to the games.

Since we just had a character leave one of my current games and now has introduced a new character (the player is the same though), I've decided to make a sheet for it.

The game is Rogue Trader, and it was originally envisioned as a "light-hearted" game based around xenos in Commorragh. Based on what's been going on it's actually been fairly serious, but a bunch of crazy shit's happened to the party so far.

The new character is the Chaos Space Marine so things are quickly starting to go in an entirely different direction since he's making sure to live up to the "Chaos" part of it.

>What's the campaign about so far?

Sandbox campaign, the party initially started out travelling with a caravan with the shared aim of getting to a particular city (New Canaan) but for their own individual reasons.

It's mostly been a campaign driven by their personal stories and odd-jobs, with plenty of different villains to drive stories. The goal was doing a Firefly/Cowboy Bebop/Mandalorian style thing, and that's precisely what it was.

Painfully. The TL difference would make things all kinds of unbalanced. With guns in the picture, I'd suggest the (mage?) on bottom left focus on support spells and forget any damage dealing abilities, and the girl on the right ditch the handgonne and get a real gun.

I like this thread.

God I want to play a character based on chaos Commander now.

I'm currently waiting to play a young hot shot semi-daemonic sky priate captain who got hit with a withering curse that basically gave him darth vader syndrome though so I've definately got things to look forward too.

Also a mystery character in a short game one of my players is going to run for my group while I recover from GM burnout.

No, it's the Rogue Trader system. We just don't really have stuff like ship management or profit factor or so on and so forth.
Come to think of it, it's basically using the basic premise for Dark Heresy with the Rogue Trader ruleset, since it's loosely been a series of different missions. The GM has also used the Endeavor system from Black Crusade as well since it's a bit more fitting to what we're up to, and the Space Marine is technically a Deathwatch PC minus all the Deathwatch stuff.

It's been pretty fun so far, even though my character (the Fire Warrior) hasn't had a very nice time.

>>76531576
Our friend group is pretty small. We'd probably not have two entire ones were it not for how the story went. It puts a lot of pressure on the DM to run so many characters, and it tends to show. I think it's part of the reason he tends to forget what they do or even that they're there sometimes.

Both. The parents are the two on the furthest left, and the rest are their many daughters and one son.

The thing about our villains is, they're closer to rivals than actual opponents. We don't fight them, in fact we talk, interact, and even sang a song to try and bring us over to their side on things.

The campaign has a very Disney feel to it, out of combat. In combat it's full of people getting gutted and ripped apart or getting an axe to the skull, but out of combat it's just a darker themed Disney Cartoon.

The GM just draws scenes that we players linger on too long. If we really hang seem to enjoy what's happening in the moment, he'll draw it. But we know that now, so we started to abuse it.

Yes, the smaller goths are the children of the two older goths. They're a big happy necro-cult family, Addams style.

Yes, the GM wrote lyrics and picked out snazzy music to sing them to, and he's never taken a drama class, or choir. He can do like 10 voices all of which sound like Disney characters.

>>76550735

Mainly, the entire story of the campaign revolves around our backstories, and the player characters coming into their own and impressing their remaining parents, elders, etc. We also seem to heavily value life, so the only enemies that get gutted are the ones who have proven they're no more valuable to the world than mad beasts. Most of our intelligent enemies are either defeated through diplomacy or beaten unconscious with non-lethal damage and cuffed and taken back to be locked up in prison.

Our "villains" aren't trying to destroy the world, or bring about a new age of darkness. They're more like rivals that want to solve the same issues the party does, they just use more lethal and underhanded means of achieving the same goals, but never so much as to warrant getting more than a bloody nose and maybe getting tied to a lamp-post while the party deals with the real issue. The Goth family are a bunch of evil cleric-necromancers, but we have never actually caught them raising the dead. They're just far too much fun to remove from the game, and too helpful as a barometer for how heroic we are in contrast.

Our resident power-gamer is the Viking, and he's the one the villains are always trying to win over with offers of money, fame, and his every desire. He never takes the bait though, he trusts his build to carry him through the campaign.

>>76552280

Had another session yesterday, in which my group fought the Bull of the Heavens. Despite the grievous injury, Edmond proceeded to get up and then drag the bull into the pit via lucky opposed strength rolls.

I was told that that level of damage would have killed anyone else in the party, and probably anyone else at all.

The pistol in the background was found as a remnant of the world before the march of the wizards, it has ten micro-rockets for ammunition.

We actually all have a similar amount of experience points (and we all started at rank 3 which helps quite a bit in leveling the playing field.)
Having a more tanky character (the Space Marine) will actually help balance things out for the PCs bit more, since combat was essentially high-speed rocket tag before that.
>Does it work well?
It works well enough.
>What kind of plot threads do you have?
Mostly, we've been having to do different jobs for different organizations, enforced through either blackmail or getting paid. But it's stuff like
>hey why don't you guys investigate a craftworld trapped in the webway, also there might be some Chaos stuff there but don't worry about that
>oh yeah, go and find this artifact down in the Old City, I'm sure you'll be fine
>So, there's an abandoned arena that might have ghosts in there, why don't you check that out

They're a race of alien snake people who got corrupted by Chaos, and it's heavily implied in-universe that the Sslyth are the remains of that.

The fact that the Sslyth are really only present on Commorragh (which dodged the birth of Slaanesh) helps that argument.

We received a letter from the bishop of the town, the bull has had an arrangement with the town, each year they would give it a sacrifice of one virginal, teenage girl, in exchange the bull would ward off other monstrosities and not kill the rest of them.

It had killed 18 groups of Hunters sent to slay it before us, and we only succeeded because we figure out the secret of it's body. All attacks that were sent to it would sink into the extra-dimensional space that it's form created. We resolved this issue with a pit of water 30 feet wide and 30 feet deep (the bull was only two stories tall). When we finally managed to force it into the pit, all the water was sucked into it's body and then we collapsed the dirt wall on it.

It begged for it's life before the end, but we had seen it's chambers, filled with corpses of the girls who starved in there, hundreds of them, we were not feeling merciful.

The father of the sacrifice chosen this year was an incredibly wealthy farmer, he fronted the cost for hiring us (the cost of which is mandated and regulated by the church). The letter was received by our contact with the church, who then sent it to us.

How did you accomplish being very tanky in Savage Worlds? Isn’t that system pretty lethal. Then again I don’t know what edition you are playing either.

> I only have one more picture in the style of the previous, and I deliberately didn't put much effort into it because I still have the bull to draw once we confront it (next session, we spent 2 sessions investigating and preparing for it)

What sort of preparation and legwork do you do? Ask people about the stories and hunt down sightings of the monster, go out to inspect places it has attacked to learn its preferences and methods? Go and talk to it if it is given to speak with people when its not slaughtering them?

SSGT is Staff Sergeant in some militaries and some police forces

MCPL is Master corporal in the Canadian Armed Forces and the Royal Canadian Army Cadets.

I've played a decent amount of Rogue Trader before and I don't really consider the system to be all that restrictive, especially if you are using things like alternate classes/careers. That can really expand things out and I highly recommend doing so.
With this campaign, starting at a higher level (rank 3) made us much more capable and we were able to choose from a wider range of abilities. For instance, the GM let my character take the Pathfinder alternate rank (while he didn't actually receive the official title or training, the GM fluffed it as his already having a talent for stealth combined with quickly learning the kind of carefulness that anyone would need just to get around in Commorragh without being stabbed).

>The one who was killed or the one doing the killing?
Invictus did the killing and later on got killed (rather quickly, since the other characters were in the next room and Frost was one of them)
Seriously, tech-priests can be scary in melee combat.

My character build is rather simple, and only really works because of the hindrance : The Slayer! (monsters target this character above others for attacks) which is custom to the setting of my DM (I forgot the savage world name for such, storyteller i think)

I started with Rich, Filthy Rich (also homebrewed to increase income throughout campaign), and Brawny. This allowed me to start the game with full plate armor, a horse, a shield and rapier. The Shield and Rapier give me a total parry bonus of +3 (+2 vs ranged attacks) and the armor gives me total coverage with +3 toughness. Brawny gives me an additional point of toughness and the carrying capacity to not be penalized by the weight of my equipment. I max fighting out at character creation, and put the rest into riding and notice. I started the game with 11 parry and 10 toughness.

My strategy is simple, provoke the monster into attacking me, and save all my bennies for soaking damage. Remarkably, the first time I've been actually damaged was against the bull. I've been keeping track of all the bennies that the dm has spent against me (8 across 3 battles thus far) vs the rest of my party (3 ranged characters, 1 other melee)

We're playing the most recent edition (Deluxe Explorers edition), but that just allows this build to go more tanky if we weren't doing this setting. If you pick up an arcane background and get the power Deflection, you can raise your parry by 4 or thereabout for one turn of setup. Picking up a spear doubles the range in which others have to target your parry instead of 4 for ranged attacks and increases parry by one more. In truth, the best way to play as a tank is get really close to whatever you're fighting and save your bennies for soaking damage. The hardest part is making sure the monster attacks you rather than your allies, and grappling is godsend for such (target that you are grappling must beat your strength check or -4 to do anything other than trying to break out)

In general we take 2 to 3 sessions to prepare for the monster. The more we can figure out the better. One of our characters has psychometric powers (can see the "memories" of things he touches) which is godsend for investigation.

Our preparation for the Soul Eater was rather simple, we interviewed the survivors (of which three have remained from 18 or so victims) and then did our best to puzzle together the best's abilities and intelligence, then we went to the places that the beast attacked and had our nexus walker (the psychometric fellow) watch the past for any further clues.

Our impression of the beast was that it was somewhat intelligent, could mimic the voices of it's victims and devise crude traps for others using said voices, and was as large as a large carriage. Thus our plan to chain it down.

It's ability to summon the souls of those it devours was completely unexpected, as the beast did not need to use it for any of it's former victims (being almost entirely mere villagers and travelers). Unfortunately (for fortunately) The Slayer! provoked the beast into using it's trump cards immediately (our DM has rather extensive "AI" written up for the beasts, allowing him to make decisions completely impartially about their behavior).

Our initial plan was to dig a great pit in the earth for it to fall in (pitfalls our my go-to suggestion for all monsters thus far, because pitfalls are amazing) but we didn't have enough manpower or time to create such a hole for it.

Our next plan involved the chains, but 100 feet of such for each length, with a throwing spear at the end. Unfortunately, this proved too expensive and we had to downsize to four lengths of 25ft with barbed tips.

It's incredible weakness to flame was not explicitly known to us, but when made reasonable assumption based of the accounts of two of the victims (one of which survived by hiding under a burning carriage, the other of which lashed out with a open lantern).

The beast was only somewhat stronger than a particularly massive bear, and even with it's tricks we could have beaten it in time without the flame's immense effect. This was decidingly not the case with the bull, were that trap we had set to fail, we would have without question died. The bull was completely immune to conventional attacks (something we only discovered after our plague doctor did 21 damage only for nothing to happen. We knew the bull was weak to water in some capacity because it avoided all but the shallowest parts of the steam nearby whenever it needed to cross, but we weren't sure why (I had a private suspicion that turned out to be true the bull could be "filled up" by the water and die that way but I did not share it as I had no way to confirm or reject such and baseless speculation gets us nowhere.)

The battle with the conspirators was almost laughably easy, normal people have no chance at defeating monsters, which is why we ordained hunters go out to do battle with them, they grew to confident in their ability to deal with us and suffered for it.

We knew that they were looting the dead hunters and selling the equipment, and while this is unsightly it is a crime we could easily ignore, but actively attempting to kill the church-ordained, one of which was of noble blood (my character, we had to justify his wealth and the DM suggested he held the title of count but his elder sister was managing the estate) demands retribution.

We attempted to take them alive, and of the six that attacked us we managed to capture 3, one of which surrendered (the frowning one on top the rocks). We then demanded to know of any conspirators to their plan (the weapons shopkeeper in town as it turns out) and drug them back for a proper execution. We first stopped by the shop and apprehended the shopkeeper before he could flee and then stopped at the church to ask the friar accompany us (we weren't quite sure if we could trust the mayor).

The Bishop asked to speak to the conspirators (which was granted, so long as we could watch if they were to try to flee) and he ask of them if our allegations of their guilt was true (which they confessed to with bowed heads) while we sent the Friar off to ask the mayor to meet us in the middle of town, where the barely used execution stand was.

He met with us there, profusely apologizing for the actions of these men, we asked him to act in his capacity as a judge and he quickly agreed. By this point most of the town was aware of what had happened and was watching the trial.

The trial (if such a thrown together affair could be called such) was incredibly simple, The mayor asked each man if they had done what they were being accused of, and each one was sufficiently intimidated to speak truthfully. Not one attempted to deny, not after the disappointed face of the Bishop. Then My character drew the sword Beckoner, and walked behind the three corpses which were also in line with the men.

Beckoner was a blade we had found lodged into the hide of the Soul Eater, and it had retained a measure of the beast's ability to summon up the dead. When thrust into a corpse that was still intact enough to speak, one question could be asked that would then be answered truthfully, limited to yes, no, and I don't know or approximately such.

Which then I did, thrusting the blade up through the backs of each of the corpses and motioning for the mayor question them as he did the living. When that was done I handed the blade off to our nexus walker who was waiting with ritual cloth to wrap the horrid thing with, and made a quick prayer to the king of life to forgive me it's use. I made sure not to make this prayer with the blade in hand, and no one else in the party is willing to touch the thing.

Then the mayor gave the men their sentences (death) and motioned for a guard to set up the nooses as the Bishop gave the men their last rites

Truthfully we had not wished to kill any humans if we were able to avoid such, but the law was clear in this case. What we could do was ask for clemency on behalf of the man who surrendered, which was granted. (the mercy was my suggestion, the rest of my party was fine with such so long as he was in some way punished)

That man (more of a boy really, barely 20 year of age) went to the almost never-used prison they had in the town for an amount of time I did not care to hear (I think some years of community service was proposed by the mayor in the end, which the boy accepted without complaint).

Then they were hanged, and the corpses were very quickly buried and given funerals. It was a ghastly affair in truth and it was a shame that decided on this path.

ideally this is how all parties should be drawn
