I am a descendant of the Bird King and heir to the Bird Crown, and I learned due to privilege the greatest and most powerful of Bird Magic, before transforming myself into a human through my own alchemy, granting me mastery over the tongues of both Bird and Man.

the most fearsome creature in the world of darkness: the were-pigeon

corn in the bible posted:the most fearsome creature in the world of darkness: the were-pigeon TMNT the RPG had a system for making mutant animals where each animal would be assigned a number of points, and you could get more points by decreasing size or removing useful traits, or spend points to gain size and gain human traits like hands or not looking like a stupid animal person. So a sparrow would have a lot of points, but would have to spend a bunch to get up to a size where it could win fights and to get thumbs, while a horse would have very few points, but could get more by shrinking down to the size of a human. Everything was normalized so any animal could become a human with no advantages, or keep some disadvantageous traits to gain in power. But the system broke down because no animals started with negative points, so once you rolled up an animal larger than a horse, they would start with 0 points no matter how large they were or how many points they could gain by shrinking down to human size. Mutant hippos were bad... mutant elephants were terrifying... mutant whales were basically hill giants, striding into combat and cutting people in half with ninja swords the size of telephone poles.

One of the most memorable fights I ever gave my players in 3.5e was a were-orca (not to be confused with the Ocean Strider). It was in danger of losing a land-based fight so it just ran through the woods like King Kong back to the sea even while they pelted it over and over from behind, because the lycanthrope template turned anything even moderately large into the Incredible Hulk, let alone a whale.

If you say Zak S three times, Zak S appears and Zak S invites you to play D&D with hot blondes with standards that are financially mutable.

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:i though the original appeal of the werewolf was that you felt you had this awful side to you that would come out and damage your relationships with others. depends on who you ask. sigmund and sinfjotli turn into wolves for a couple of years in the volsunga saga and no one gets uppity about it. king gudmund gets kind of lovely about it in one of the eddas but everyone else just doesn't care much

You can talk about werewolves being an Incredible Hulk analogue, I'll be keeping to their true cultural purpose: fantasizing about getting knotty with a woman half your size

I enjoy role playing ridiculous power-fantasy characters that are super min/maxed out and a general pain in the rear end for literally everyone else involved in the game because I'm a weak bitch that got stuffed in lockers a lot when I was in school. Also, D&D next sounds hella dumb and for turbo gaylords.
