I NOMINATE THE GRINCH!

For getting an emoji.

Set sexuality is my initial preference. Games that handle this topic like Skyrim and Baldur’s Gate 3 don’t really have a lot to say about specific sexualities queer experiences, because they don’t want to alienate/make the player feel left out. One of the tweets mentions dragon age which is where I felt seen and heard for the first time. Another comment mentions it but in a game with well defined characters who have queer identities I can understand and want there to be restrictions. To say otherwise would be inauthentic to the story you’re trying to tell.

Not op, but your original notation is for pawns.

Hello! So, I did a quick cursory glance of the hero kids system, but likely missed some things, so please reach out if you have any questions.

The easiest way to convert 5e modules to a 2d6 based system:

The lowest you can roll on 2d6 is a 2, and the highest a twelve. So, we convert 5e’s 1-20 numbers to fit that. (Ability modifier in parentheses)

2d6 stats vs 5e stats

2 (-5) = 0 and 1

3 (-4) = 2 and 3

4 (-3) = 4 and 5

5 (-2) = 6 and 7

6 (-1) = 8 and 9

7 (0) = 10 and 11

8 (+1) = 12 and 13

9 (+2) = 14 and 15

10 (+3) = 16 and 17

11 (+4) = 18 and 19

12 (+5) = 20

Example conversion: In 5e, an orc has an Armor Class of 13, Hit Points of 15, gets + 5 to its attack roll, and deals 9 damage on a hit.

In this 2d6 system, it’s armor would be 8 (need to roll above an 8 to harm it) hit points would be 9, gets +4 to its attack roll, and deals 6 damage on a hit.

Using these conversions, it should be pretty easy to add new monsters or bad guys from DnD 5e modules. There’s a few free ones on dndbeyond to look over that may help give ideas for quests! I highly recommend Frozen Sick.

Obv spoilers ahead, but the last log in particular lays it out. https://lethal-company.fandom.com/wiki/Sigurd%27s_entries

Also I know, fandom gross, but I couldn’t find a better source while at work.

Minor spoilers ahead:

It’s not actually the scrap that’s valuable to them. Through logs in game you find out it’s actually your collective suffering, which is used to placate the entity and the monsters on nearby moons.

Cannot wait to crack open the Rich People Loot Piñata’s when the Water Wars start

It takes all of us, comrade. Some of the best staged moments would have been nothing without the crew.

Hades town is fantastic! Out of the classics, I’m a big fan of Guys and Dolls. Repo: the Genetic Opera is really good too. Now you’ve got me wanting to write effort posts about deconstructing shows. The Whipping Man is a fantastic play that talks about race and religion in the immediate post Civil-war from an enslaved jewish perspective.

This one has a lot of radical potential. Really love this version, was it this song? https://youtu.be/Xmsy6w0r7q0?feature=shared
