This was their first campaign ever for all the players and they’d like to make new characters for the new campaign

Ok in a hypothetical theoretical situation, where my PC has said multiple times that their character is suicidal. Would it be too dark to actually force them to attempt to go through with it. Like straightfaced the next time he says hes suicidal I'm just like ok you pull the 50 of rope out of you bag make a sleight of hand check

Long version:
Last session 2 party members chose to side with bbeg, 2 members sides with sir white knight, problem player siding with white knight. Start of this session is the combat resulting from that, 2 lvl 6 rogues vs a lvl6 spore druid and a level 6 were paladin

2020-03-09 00:15:46 UTC  

The rogues got fucking one shot by a druid spell each

2020-03-09 08:58:36 UTC  

HOLY SHIT AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHA

2020-03-09 08:58:40 UTC  

what did he use?????

2020-03-09 17:47:10 UTC  

Spore druid form adds 1d8 poison to melee flame blade as an action, then another spell that adds 2d8 radiant damage the next turn he charged the rogue and even with uncanny dodge got downed

2020-03-09 17:47:32 UTC  

On the other guy he just hold personed

2020-03-09 17:47:40 UTC  

And the paladin had it prepped as well

2020-03-09 17:48:08 UTC  

They manacled him tied him up them stabbed him through the heart when he wouldn't join

2020-03-09 17:48:52 UTC  

Hold person is kinda sad for pvp fights, failed wis save is game over

2020-03-11 00:40:39 UTC  

Hey need feed back on a system im making for a Kenshi theamed game im making the system for

2020-03-11 00:46:08 UTC  

Core stats
STR - DEX - CON - PER - CHAR - INT - SPEED - WS

Skills
anything that is more specific and can be enhanced by one of the cores eg. INT will boost the Medic skill

it works on a ex spending system similar to Warhammer 4th's D100 system
and it has a Tag system similar to Dungeon world where items have tags that effect what can be done with items.

2020-03-11 02:37:22 UTC  

anything i should worry about here?

2020-03-11 07:30:50 UTC  

what is per?

2020-03-11 07:31:05 UTC  

why is speed its own point?

2020-03-11 07:35:12 UTC  

perception i'd guess

2020-03-11 07:35:19 UTC  

and that definitely does not want to be a core stat

2020-03-11 07:36:06 UTC  

not if you've got both wisdom and intelligence

2020-03-11 08:45:59 UTC  

^

2020-03-11 08:46:11 UTC  

why not make *sanity* its own score?

2020-03-11 08:46:31 UTC  

i think it could maybe fit i dunno

2020-03-11 10:03:06 UTC  

Idk, I’d argue for practical purposes irl at least wisdom or intelligence don’t necessarily affect perception

2020-03-11 10:03:39 UTC  

Also speed should be SPD smh

2020-03-11 10:08:11 UTC  

how perceptive you are isn't affected by wisdom and intelligence? unless we're talking literal fight or flight basic instinct I would argue otherwise lol

2020-03-11 10:13:06 UTC  

it feels very much like a wisdom thing imo. you have gotten used to be able to spot things n shit

2020-03-11 10:13:28 UTC  

plus I think it might become a dump stat that no one will ever need

2020-03-11 10:13:33 UTC  

except one person in the team

2020-03-11 10:14:50 UTC  

honestly though

2020-03-11 10:15:45 UTC  

the bigger issue is that you're creating a rule set that is going to have very little development and testing, and then you're going to expect ~4 other people to learn this new unfinished rule set to play one campaign

2020-03-11 10:15:57 UTC  

unless you've got plans to develop it properly

2020-03-11 10:16:19 UTC  

you'd be better off using some existing rule set and adjusting the setting to suit your campaign

2020-03-11 10:17:15 UTC  

gurps is one example that is literally exactly for this lol

2020-03-11 10:17:53 UTC  

this

2020-03-11 10:18:30 UTC  

I personally always base shit on 5e but take elements from other games
