Hey, it’s been a while since anyone’s talked about Maiesta here, what does /tg/ actually think of it? Both mechanically and in terms of the setting?

I played in a Maiesta game last year. It's a solid system, though I think the custom dice are kind of pointless since you could replicate the same probability distribution with normal dice, or you could just describe it as rolling with -2,+0, or +2, so I wouldn't have to remember what kind of roll was gold die again. I do like how the classes are built to have synergy with different abilities and a large amount of ability choices that can affect how you play them. Though the veteran class xp requirements are way too high: I've barely heard anybody having played in a campaign that actually lasted long enough to reach the required xp level (in the campaign I played in I did end up fulfilling all the other requirements for the VC I would have taken, but the campaign wrapped up before I had enough xp. Granted, our GM was rather stingy with handing out xp).
Outside of the pregnancy fetish aspect, there's not really that much to write home about, but the fact that it's actually a mechanically solid and reasonably well thought out RPG that's also a fetish game is remarkable when you look at most other games in that "genre".

It IS fetish material.
But fetish games, so long as everyone shares the fetish, can actually be very good games as everyone's invested and attentive.
I got 2/3rds the way through re-writing it to run 1920's cthullu-esque horror games, which sustained the last thread.

That was a cool concept. Do you still plan to finish it?
Tbh I mostly wanted to make a post because last thread somebody asked if I was planning on drawing the rest of my group's characters after sharing the picture I did of my character, and I had in fact promised the other players that I'd draw the party at some point but the thread fell off before I could finish it. So in case anybody still cares, I wanted to share the final result. Even if I think it did end up looking a bit wonky in parts.

The whole poem is a bunch of nonsense words that you can just sort-of put together the meaning of from the context. That's the whole point of it. Funnily enough, some of the made-up words have since entered the proper lexicon, like guffaw as synonym to laughter.
In case of the original poem, vorpal is used as an adjective to describe a sword. In the context it probably just means sharp or something, but since it cut off the Jabberwock's head in a single swing, it got later used in DnD as the name for a enchantment that gave the weapon a chance to decapitate the enemy.

What is your favorite class and why? I like minions, so you can probably guess for me.
Also, are there any class archetypes/potential sub-classes that you feel are missing, and if so, what are they, and how would you handle them lore-wise?

It's bumpfag. He isn't capable of human-level thought, he's more like a paramecium.

What AU settings would you create for Maiesta and how would you change things for them? I like the idea of a version of the setting where Maiesta are in the history of our world as avatars of fertility deities, their inhuman forms the result of gaining their powers in the case of the non-human options.
