Sci-Fi setting with hyper-advanced alien shapeshifters who take on the form of Elves because they think this will make humans more comfortable dealing with them. Made up an obviously false backstory about being distant cousins of humanity who left Earth for space millennia before the invention of electricity and have finally reunited with them. Name their own colonies stuff like "Atlantis" and "Avalon," gaslight and brainwash their own agents to believe the story to make it more believable.
They intend to use humanity as a steamroller to clear out rival powers so that they can inhabit the gas giants unimpeded, as that is their natural environment.
The human leadership have figured out that this is a trick (Atlantis, really?) but go along with it because their commitment to the bit is charming, and nobody wants to live on gas giants anyway.
Regular citizens are aware that the Elves are actually ethereal beings that take on the pointy eared shape for convenience, but this sounds like the sort of thing Elves would be able to do anyway so it doesn't break the kayfabe.

Lodoss War was specifically made to teach new people how tabletop RPG's worked, since readers were confused and writing letters to a magazine
So I don't know how "authentic" it is, it's intentionally paint by the numbers

A cute elf with a thick accent from a region not very far away you never heard about offers you a bit overpriced raspberries. Do you buy them?

>A Witch's life in Mongol
Interesting style. I don't like reading noncomplete mangas anymore but I'll give it a look
>I'm curious how the other two pc branches of the clan worked out
Aight so our three PCs are related. There are two branches of the family and we have three generations alive in it.
>Telonius | Half Elf | Rogue/Bard?
First comes our first PC which is a half-elf (eww but okay) and he is a historian and art patron of the clan. He collects various pieces of history and local oral traditions. He works with the people which we govern. He makes the offbranch (clan leader's father's first wife that was an elf). He is about 80 if I remember but looks late like in his late 30s/early 40s
>Pormeus Cain | Human | Barbarian
Then comes my Barbarian. He is the younger brother of the clan leader. He is the clan's diplomat and is responsible with gathering info on local nobles. He travels a lot and rarely spends any time home.
>Valen | Human | Artificer?
Last comes our third PC which is the son of the Clan Leader and current heir to the clan. He is somewhat autistic and is good with technology. He seems completely uninterested in his role as heir though. He is bored with politics but is pressured by the whole family to do his duty.

What drives a man to do this insanity? Spending hours of time on an anonymous website to try to police what an unknown number of anonymous posters do.
Bro, it takes 5 mins for a single person to just remake the thread or post something you dislike tomorrow or the day after or whenever to upset you again. You achieve nothing with this, you could this forever and nothing could change. Are you even thinking or is this some autistic red-mist fit moment?

What a happy Arrianne working her stall while the uncle gets to chat. Now if she had some raspberry cider I bet they'd make a killing. Nice snake skin belts tho.
The anime is coming out in July of this year as well which is how I heard of it https://youtu.be/AA9GMXHQhR8
I wonder if Telonius is an art thief and forger? Though if one is collecting secret history doing it through art and oral tradition is probably a good way to do it. Plus even half elves should have some advantage in years. Depending on how the elves of this world are doing I'd imagine they could be a big source of info unless they play along to authority, got conquered, or forced underground by the magic police state.
Barbar with wanderlust is quite classic, and considering the state of the world ironically still the most responsible role for finding nobles who are getting up to silly things. With the campaign focus on intrigue I must imagine there may be another reason to avoid too much time at home. Perhaps the resemblance to certain other player's character lol.
I had an Artificer character myself in a pathfinder game of The Abomination Vaults campaign recently. It was pretty fun. A crit fishing sort of fighter with some neat gadgets, a fancy advanced weapon, where magic and technology could cross paths. He did turn out to be very handy for certain aspects of the campaign. High str and high int, with a bit less wisdom. A bit of himbo energy. Didn't get to use as many of the Artificer traps as I wanted. His name was Arthur.
also wtf is this april fools day captcha lol

Dunno anon, aren't elves described as a lithe and slender race with bonuses to dexterity and agility, as well as a lack of toughness and constitution in most games? What do you think a creature described as such should look like, in comparison, for instance, to stocky and broad dwarves with their tough and durable bodies?
What is the stat attribution of elves in your game? That could be a pretty good indicator of what your elves "should" be in your games.

>I wonder if Telonius is an art thief and forger?
Nope. He is literally just a noble who collects and commissions art. He organizes local cultural events and traditions.
>With the campaign focus on intrigue I must imagine there may be another reason to avoid too much time at home.
It's actually pretty simple. His wife died during childbirth so he just avoids being inside because it reminds him of her. It's also a guaranteed trigger for rage if you mention his wife.
>Artificer
Never played them so I dunno their capabilities. This seem like casters with extra step

Depends on the subrace but generally thin. I usually rule out dark elves as busty and wood elves flat with stronger legs/asses but still generally thinner and slimmer than other races.

Raspberry juice does sound pretty nice.
I imagine the child died as well unless thats a point for later. Rough. I suppose if he ever figures out the top of magic police society can use revival magic he might get a bit upsety spaghetti.
Oh the old artificer I think was rather more caster-like. The more recent version had reworked it into a fighter with gambling mechanics to try and do more damage, and fun gadgets. The caster version was pretty neat tho.

Anon-sama, this general exist while previous one is still not at the bump limit. And if you really love elves, you surely here to share your lore or speak with other anons about their elves, not for posting ai slop or how random Galadriel is being molested by orcs?
>>
>>
>>97821840
>orcs are actually just corrupted elves
In lotr. But Tolkien revised this version throughout his life after Silmarillion and did not give a final answer for it
But anyway, in "random Galadriel" i mean female elf in general

>>97821887
elder scrolls too
and children always are the mothers race
the only ones who cannot do so are khajiit and argonians
khajiit being cats and argonians reptiles whose reproduction is completely different from mer and men

>>97821840
If there is one thing that I started to loathe when it comes to fantasy discussion and lore, is how some anons take one specific facet of exactly one setting and apply it to EVERY AND ALL other fantasy settings, thinking they are smart.
No, orcs are not elves in most fantasy settings.
No, half-elves aren't sterile in most fantasy settings.
No, elves aren't immortal in most fantasy settings. Especially not in TTRPG-related things.

Yes, that depends from setting to setting. But I prefer more exclusive and unique species origins. Speciesmixing if for dnd

if an eldar gets born on a corsair ship do they actually have a path or are they just basically drukhari, but with a spirit stone and less into torture and bdsm
>just considering that Corsairs are corsairs because they reject the craftworlds and aren't welcome on them and most of them were former outcasts
>>
>>97830338
They wouldn't have a path, and considering that they might not have a spritit stone, probably end up as a dark eldar at some point.
Though, it's probably a case where they could end up whatever. Maybe given to a exodite world and join the dino-riding hippies.

Why is this your train of thought

>I suppose if he ever figures out the top of magic police society can use revival magic he might get a bit upsety spaghetti.
We shall see. I think basic healing magic would've helped, but that's in the past. For now we're just trying to figure out our standing in the world the DM created. Also the table has good chemistry which I like.
Currently, our clan's region main source of income is tariffs because we're guarding a lake with a river entering and exiting it and is a major trade road and also we are the only ones that produce kelpie/water wyverns as exotic flying and diving mounts.
Right now, we have a gnome from far away city/state to negotiate tariffs with but we're also invite to a noble gathering in the form a hunt on an exotic animal.
OOC This is one of those games when "what is the rate of your local fief taxes" meme actually comes true and I'm still trying to adjust to the seriousness of it compared to Arrianne campaign.
>>97829009
That applies to coomers and sloppers too, and sadly they won't listen either.

Given that every Warhammer setting has a general, as well as an extranious GW special games thread for things like Bloodbowl and Middle Earth SBG, perhaps Warhammer elves don't belong on the wholesome elf threads? They're not wholesome, after all.

Yeah any basic healing would probably make a huge difference to this society. Well if hes past it hes past it. Or would necromancy be a temptation? It doesn't have to be full on turning someone into a vampire thing. It could just be like trying to commune with the dead for answers or resolution. Which considering how the magic police don't want people learning old things I'm sure its a massive taboo and they might be very serious about clearing out old battlefields and graveyards...I suppose dead at the bottom of a lake might be harder to find. Maybe a Ghengis Khan situation where they bury a warlord under a river to hide his grave.
I'm glad theres good chemistry. It was pretty damn funny to hear shenanigans of Arrianne's party tho.
I wonder if it will really be a straight up negotiation and hunt to talk with other nobles. Or if it immediately goes to shit with some noble attempting to murder another in the hunt.
Reminds of me lotr tax posting which I love. Idk how seriously I could be before I have to make one lol.

The previous thread had people complaining about Deedlit and Lodoss discussion despite it literally being the first replay and the posters literally talking about the character's stats and and how the original campaign was played. Way better than spamming so no one else can post anything.

No it isn't, and people don't do this anywhere near as often as you think anyway. Go suck Noldornigger's dick elsewhere, doing it in front of the rest of us like this is unseemly.

I get called Noldorfag all the time because people just throw it around every time anyone pushes back against smut and fanwank spam. Like I said in that particular thread, my source of annoyance at eldar x human romance shit is the fact that it goes against the lore of 40k, humanizes the eldar too much for my liking, and the people that like that shit insist on spamming it every time Eldar are discussed.
I have literally never imagedumped into threads like Noldorfag does but I still get put under that label. I've lurked in these threads for example about the moment they were first made because I like elves in general. I just have a pet peevee about the Eldar and their lore.
>>

>>97836083
You see this is the worst. Noldorfag isn't annoying just for the average posters that post
>elf slave what do
tier jokes for the millionth time, but also for someone who voices a reasonable opinion like
>guys, there isn't any exact canon lore example of eldar x human romance, and even if there was one or two it doesn't mean that all eldar love human cock so stop posting the same joke again and again
because they'd get dogpiled not just by the retards who actually think eldar x human is more than their headcanon but even annoyed anons who assume it's the autistic retard that's been screeching and seething about elves for 10 years.
btw just to clarify, to me eldar x human is acceptable if one does not treat is as official thing, like imagine over 10k years and billions of individuals there could have been a case that just happens to be in the story of your campaign you are playing or whatever
maybe it's a me thing because in my first exposure to 40k there were space dwarf bikers and by the time I got more into the franchise they were gone for no reason and then later returned so I am very lenient towards the setting for the sake of /yourdudes/
>>97835480
spot on

Sounds like it's the boards resident community seething problem and not Noldorfag. If this community didn't try to categorize posts from specific users on an anonymous imageboard people wouldn't accuse them of being THISPERSON
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>97839831
Obnoxious autists like Noldorniggerfag inevitably cause the resident community to seethe though. Especially when said obnoxious autist wages a ten year long shitpost war against something that's been a part of /tg/ for almost as long as /tg/ has existed. Noldorfag is the problem, ultimately, because he doesn't know when to shut up and he thinks he can remake part of this board's "culture" to his liking by being obnoxiously autistic about a specific subject.
>>
>>
>>97839880
OP likely did that to troll Noldorfaggotnigger, which worked, since he came in with yet another bag of autism and spilled it all over the thread. That's one of the big problems with people who wage these dumb gay crusades, people inevitably try to fight them off and thread quality turns to shit.

My point is that this whole "fight against something that's an intrinsic part of the board's culture" thing, leads to a dramatic decrease in board quality. We could have had an interesting discussion about elves here but because Noldornigger showed up, sperged out over a cropped porn image he could have ignored instead, we have this shit instead.
>>97839943
The last time the rules on this place were seriously enforced it damn near killed the board, you don't want the mods to notice us again.

I feel like there are very few opportunities to tell interesting stories with elves because they're elves. It usually boils down to "elf is old" or "elf hates dwarves". That goes for Frieren, Dungeon Meshi and even tLotR.
How do you deal with that to set them apart? What makes elves cool besides them being magical and long lived?

I am dropping it, I don't care, I don't give a fuck- I think your book/series/whatever is pure trash, get a new script because we went through this BS too many fucking times and it feels like beating a dead horse at this point and you can't contribute anything new

Definitely something like that. Our clan is one of the fewer ones who has the license to copy books and record history which is one of the strong points beside Kelpie eggs that we use for political leverage.
>It was pretty damn funny to hear shenanigans of Arrianne's party tho.
We're having another session tomorrow again. Shorter one so definitely not the end I would guess.

I still maintain that at it's height, the 40K Eldar Empire was a lot like Commorragh is now, the webway equivalent of a walkable city. And that even now, the city is not the horror shitshow GW hacks make it out to be. Yeah, there is no functioning government, and a lot of the place has gone to hell, but some places are still quite nice by average Imperial standards. Then again, most Imperial worlds are quite nice by 'average Imperial standards' too.

Except it's not just pron though. Hell, any pornographic images posted in this thread get zapped by the mods/jannies and the posters doing it get banned.
Noldorfag complains about mere words on a screen, cropped images, cheese cake and cute elf girls/waifus in general. I would prefer people openly getting away with posting NSFW material compared to him and his endless bitching and spamming.
>>

>>97845628
>>97845660
to be fair, retards often take it too far and the cheesecake that gets posted is not tasteful
what's more ridiculous is getting upset over people fawning over elf women and "waifus", just look around on what website you are on ffs
>>
>>97841673
>I feel like there are very few opportunities to tell interesting stories with elves because they're elves
you have to make an interesting character that happens to be an elf and thus have elf traits like magic use, high agility, superhuman senses or whatever. Just like all other character traits these show up when it's relevant and gives the narrative some flavor.
Going in and expecting to write "an elf story" will just end up leading to a bunch of boring tropes and 2D characters
>>
>>
just IMO dark elf x elf is way more interesting than human x elf because at this point it seems elves are just long lived humans with pointy ears and interchangeable cultures and at least dark elves, being the token evil race, have a vastly different outlook in life and a different culture
>>
>>
>>97845744
Yeah, but that's my point. The characters don't have to be elves to make the story interesting, at this point it's just fashion.
It's obviously not wrong, but it seems kinda of a waste if you're going to introduce fantasy races that act like a human would.
>>
>>
>>97846172
most fantasy races are more like facets of humanity
you could make them utterly alien to humans, but that steps into the realm of the fae
at that point, just make your elves 3-feet tall and spend all their time baking cookies and making toys for reasons man cant grasp
>>
>>97841673
Elves make for great protagonists, all we need is to free ourselves from this idea that every story needs to be about some unassuming farmboy that goes from 0 to hero within a trilogy.
Their long lifespans make them well-suited for long-running epic series spanning hundreds of years.
Them being inherently magical makes them well-suited for fantasy, period.
>>
>>
>>97846172
>but it seems kinda of a waste if you're going to introduce fantasy races that act like a human would.
I see this repeated from time to time and I don't think it's valid criticism since the width of human behavior both individually and in groups is incredibly wide. Whatever you come up with someone can point to some more or less obscure example and say it's just like that.
When you're writing you probably have a setting that provides context and provides constraints on how the characters act. Elves must likely have some traits humans don't have which affect how they are constrained. This should inform the elf characters in the narrative. Verisimilitude in the story is much more important than trying to be unique for uniqueness sake even if strictly speaking when you strip the narrative of all detail, flair and chrome it's probably a story you've heard before, or a slight variation on it and really it could have just been about a bunch of normal dudes anywhere and it would tell the same basic story, but that's not the point of telling your story.
