Give me your edgiest names for an evil PC organization in an evil campaign.

Our group's designated murderhobo edgelord said my ideas ("the invisible claw", "malice", "The League of Bandits") were lame. I'm not naturally an evil person but I wanna try to play an evil character.

True evil is deeply convinced it is good.
Call it something that might seem vaguely justifiable at first but that has sinister overtones

Despite advising everything but, I like this response.

Depends how OP wants to do it. If he just wants to be stupid sociopaths and enjoy breaking toys in the sandbox then lean the fuck into it and go full ham. This is superb advice.

If you want to be play a convincing sympathetic or likable evil though, this won't work. Tyranny was a good example of how evil can be likeable, have values or even turn good.

Make sure your GM is on the same page because these are very different beasts tonally. I mean if I was running an evil campaign I'd ask "nuanced anti heroes taking shortcuts and selfish decisions, or edgy murder hoboes" then I'd insist that if they want to play the latter that can be arranged but only if they tell me. If they wanted to betray each other on top of that though I'd probably just find the most up to date paranoia rules set ASAP and throw that at them faster than they can say "Friend Computer, I've found the traitor".

I was just released from prison, and I have some interesting news to report. It turns out that A.) a lot of the guys in there are big fans of tabletop RPGs, and B.) any sort of dice are typically considered contraband (I guess because they are associated with gambling?) and are very hard to come by.

So I started thinking about other possible randomization methods. Although dice are banned, for some reason playing cards are always allowed.

So my question is: are there any robust RPG systems out there that use playing cards? And, if not,0do you have any suggestions for how to create such a system?

I forgot another randomization method I have heard about from friends in prison. Spinners. Like the kind from a kid's board game. Most prisons permit them. Get a piece of cardboard or paper, draw a circle, partition the circle and write your numbers. Take another piece of paper and a paperclip, or a rock and a pencil, whatever you have on hand, to make an indicator and a base to swivel on.

Use a bag or some other container with tokens for every outcome. Relatively easy to make with some paper or cardboard and a ruler (to make even sized tokens).

The Arkham Horror cardgame uses this system and it works pretty well. Especially because you can customize the difficulty by removing/adding certain tokens.

Hey guys I'm making a futuristic campaign using FASERIP, I'm creating characters and stuff but finding it hard to locate super hero/villain pictures for the npcs. Filtering through different sites is not very productive, so I'm wondering if anyone has any good tools/sites/ways to acquire these.

I had my "session 0" with my players, and the only feedback I got was "We would like to face a lich eventually" as an adventure goal/hook. One of my players is playing a valkyrie type cleric.

Post any and all things valkyrie and lich related. Campaign ideas, adventure hooks, images, module suggestions, spells or magic items. It is all welcome and wanted.
We're playing 3.5e and I'm starting everyone at level 5, but don't let that system or level limit your suggestions. Small picture dump incoming.

It's one of those subjective things that varies with setting and edition. It's actually one of those things that's best hashed out in a session 0 because the players will invariably end up debating something that's actually known by their characters. If it's not known then tell them "no one's checked" though given the existence of several divination spells and deities someone has checked.

So lich ideas:

If you were doing 5th I'd say do TOA. But there's tonnes of classic liches. Most liches are unethical scholars not megalomaniacs though so while they tread on mortals they do so to achieve something. Bear that in mind. They are geniuses above and beyond human levels of intellect. Not much beyond but enough that they're cleverer than you. When running a creature like that you're not going to be able to employ tactics at their level. Metagame a little. Not a lot, don't DM vs Players it but this guy is smarter than you and you need a leg up to get on his level. probably more.

Don't hard cheat and build a perfect counter to what your players turn up with on the day unless they lay it all for him to see. If he has scouts or spies and any lived after seeing the party in action then he'll know their class based on their abilities (assuming they used some signature abilities) and equipment. So he'll know what their best and worst saves are likely to be (combined with their obvious wit, speed, build whatever) he won't necessarily get it perfect but he should at least be countering their class. If he doesn't do that after a turn or two he should figure it out. He can't read their character sheets but he will know anything they've let his network know about and he'll have a good idea what to expect. Don't have him fall for stupid shit. He'll have friends, make sure he has a strategy of some sort.

His lair will be defensible, the terrain will have more problems for players to manage than opportunities. He won't fight them in the throne room unless he funnels them into a narrow entrance and makes them run up a slope (and more). The players will have to think about how to overcome this or whether to power through. He'll have cover where it suits him and maybe some other hazards which are aimed in such a way that they hurt attackers and won't put him in danger unless he ends up out of position a long way.

If all else fails have a couple of crazy but likely gambits. I made an elder orb who had several abilities that would conveniently be exactly where the players when if they triggered. He just knew that he'd end up facing enemies there, he'd done the maths. Don't overuse it, and remember to account for it like any other attack when you do. He had one use of that and several other gambits. He is smarter than you. I was honest with my players when I sprung that what I was doing and that also that particular trick only happens once in this fight. It wasn't a gotcha, it was more like a spell or ability.

Speaking of network, while he won't run an empire he's causing trouble enough the players come for him so he needs to be up to something. He'll have a few trusted hirelings who deal with other mortals as his lieutenants (maybe corrupt gang, maybe he's even quite civil with librarians who give him access to their tomes) and maybe a few less conventional pets and allies, devils or demons of Orcus, lesser undead, constructs, monstrosities, maybe lesser dragons, etc. He wants knowledge or power for it's own end so he will have spies. He won't have a national network but a few relatively autonomous and reliable (and smart) allies and if the players ping his radar he'll probably have them observe before he acts. Maybe let the players have a chance to catch one or more of the spies. He will also use divination and scry to some extent.

In that case he'll play defensive while he scopes them. If he knows they're coming he will have memorised a good spell list for them and prepared a magic item or trap or two. Maybe even spring a simulacrum on them.

The lich isn't super threatened if his phylactery is safe so he will probably engage the players on his terms once they start to be a real threat. The final fight is when he'll throw everything at them including minions. But remember he has little to fear even if he dies, unless he has reason t…

Well that was a fun first session. Surprise guest who decided to try playing too with a premade character, improvised a cultists-in-a-cave encounter that pretty much went off without too much trouble and ended with them leaving the cave only to see the silhouettes of the goddess of death murdering the goddess of magic in the sky. (Pretty much got the response I wanted from the players.)

Will be fun to continue that one, hopefully with some better tools on my side to handle the encounters without improvising too much.

So we've had Old Spice with the "Gentleman" class (https://twitter.com/oldspice/status/961362988019064832) and we've had Wendy's recently introduce "Feast Of Legends" at NYCC which is an entire ruleset of its own and a clear continuation of sassy Wendy's lashing out at other fast food franchises.
