don't forgot
@warped ice you can steal the waterspitters from lush mire for adapts
warped ice
OH YEAH
uhhh how do the water porjectiel work again
wow i fucked up that spelling alot huh
magic oasis
maybe
what if it's like a ranged disarm?
warped ice
ooo that'd be sick too
magic oasis
instead of snatching weapons you just send it flying
magic oasis
or you can
have slugcat position itself inside a sala's mouth
sala uses waterspit
slugcat goes flying
the waterspit is actually like
really powerful in how much force it knocks you with
archerfish can spray water from their mouths IRL by contracting their gills/throat, shooting water out of their mouths
the slowing effect may be due to it being a combination of water and thick saliva
warped ice
should it be like
food pips to use?
but like, al ow cost
1 pip for 3 projectiles
salas have 10 require and 10 reserve too
magic oasis
maybe it needs time to recharge
magic oasis
recharge by takin' a sip
warped ice
each time you go in water it refreshes
magic oasis
verbal ferry
schlorp
magic oasis
food pip cost abilities is kind of meh in my head cause i feel like it discourages you from using them or getting creative
but in some situations where it makes sense, it's alright
lmao
underwater salamander water machinegun
warped ice
just need a sala image and its done
yep
they do no damage though
or should it be like
1d4 damage
tiny amount
but something to scare em away
magic oasis
a picture of gwyn's pfp
it's basically red lizard spit, so i don't think it should do any damage
magic oasis
i hav non
i literally have more images that would be used for black lizards than i do for salamanders
warped ice
oh my god
magic oasis
don't blame me-
verbal ferry
haha
magic oasis
i totally didn't obsess over black lizards a while before making my favoritism oc a salamander (unrelated to rainworld)

next project will be uhhh
playable scavs
fuck it we ball
verbal ferry
ball
warped ice
question is do scavs have variants for their specialties or should that be chosen by species adap
verbal ferry
adap lol
warped ice
so that way like
verbal ferry
wont take too much effort
warped ice
all scavs have some traits that are consistent, like they've all got multiple inventory slots and high rep with other scavs
then the species adap sets their specialty, like making explosive weapons or communicating with other beings or other stuff

Saint is support correct?
i think
regal mulch
I keep forgetting which is defense and which is support. 
somber plover
monks defense i think

I mean we could keep spectral barbs and reword it for restraint. It'd make sense. Hooked tongue to help latch onto things.

I also like the idea of a party of 4 different lizards and a scug.
they have a makeshift lizard head taped onto them at all times
not because it lets them be with the group (they know they're a slugcat) but because they wanted to fit in
magic oasis
it's cause they have useful hands
hushed bane
what i suggested was the saint could like
temporarily protect a party member from any damage
regal mulch
fizzy occurance‼️

hushed bane
but are more susceptible to damage themselves

ooo that could work
verbal ferry
occured
regal mulch
the other adap is what i cant think of
we have healing and defense
what about like
a utility/damage support thing
magic oasis
if it has more than one use, incredible
regal mulch
ok what if
when you heal another creature you can shoot a projectile that deals damage equal to the amount healed
so if you heal a party member for 10hp you can deal 10 damage to creature
or if you heal two party members for 10hp each you can deal 20 damage
magic oasis
wouldn't that disincentivize healing people out of combat
since you waste the damage
regal mulch
true
regal mulch
they have a makeshift lizard head taped onto them at all times
The lizs adopted the scug as their child, and the scug thinks that they're tricking the lizs to believe they're a liz, but in reality the lizs just think the scug is cute and are keeping it like a pet.
humble helm
did this ever happen and I just missed it or
magic oasis
The lizs adopted the scug as their child, and the scug thinks that they're trick...
i need this dynamic in a campaign
regal mulch
Agreed
Fizzy make it happen for the next campaign.
Can Lizs throw? That wasn't made very clear.
magic oasis
no
lizzies cannot throw spears or other items
i imagine it'd look like... well, a gorilla throwing, if they tried to do it after standing on 2 legs
only a lob
verbal ferry
most animals cannot throw things
you may think 'oh most animals are just too dumb'
no
humans are evolutionarily build for the art of throwing
jesus christ we are good at it
magic oasis
their body structures physically don't let them put power into their throws
magic oasis
Literally any other ape trying to throw like we do would fall over
why can we do it? better bipedalism lmao
verbal ferry
we have actual hip structures
tdlr: we have specialized bones in our legs that let us 'lock' them into a standing position
magic oasis
you never realize how fucking insane it is how well we throw shit until you look at other species try
regal mulch
Simply a skill issue imo
verbal ferry
which reduces the strain of just
standing up
that's why we can stand for such a long time so easily
verbal ferry
mfw human feet structures
regal mulch
My face when not having the cool legs. 
verbal ferry
what even is this thing
verbal ferry
it really wants to be a hand
magic oasis
honestly if human civilization started way later
and we had more time to evolve
i bet we'd have much different looking feet/legs
regal mulch
it really wants to be a hand
That's cause it was a hand. Now it's foot.
verbal ferry
though then again we're already some of the most effective runners on the planet
magic oasis
if you change the feet you'd have to change the legs too
verbal ferry
so there isnt much evolutionary pressure
verbal ferry
if you change the feet you'd have to change the legs too
ehhh
not much of it
you'd only have to change the bones immediately near it
magic oasis
here's an incredibly cursed thought for you though bill
magic oasis
||humans with paws for feet||
regal mulch
though then again we're already some of the most effective runners on the planet
I wouldn't say effective, just efficient. We don't run particularly fast, but we can run for longer than anything else.
magic oasis
not even fur

I wouldn't say effective, just efficient. We don't run particularly fast, but we...
Human stamina go brrrrrrr

thats what i meant
we're good enough at running over long distances that feet pains arent gonna matter that much
i mean yeah sure it fucking sucks for us
but evolution doesnt care
magic oasis
remember : you don't need to be faster than your food if you can just run for longer :)
verbal ferry
about your dumb stupid foot pains

That's why shoes. And feet hurt less if you train feet not to hurt.
which as the name suggests is an expedition into unknown territory
I'm still curious how big a gorilla would get if we taught it muscle building.
first session they got a message to deliver
and green lizard eggs
they also got a metal rod with symbols on it
not much else
second session
reaching the campsite they had to deliver the message to they found it barren
everyone moved to a diferent location
said location was now under attack constantly
going there they delivered the message
kidnapped 3 slugcats

killed one (they killed themselves)

they go through a bit

jo and tomahawk have their visions
yeah jo is batflies in a sack
Toad is still oblivious

Never forget that toad goes nyoom

i just got a cool idea
so
i feel like something involving tunnels could be cool
that or setting up a defensive position
actually yeah
@regal mulch so i think i got a cool idea for hunter
something involving the ability to remove and imbed spears with more ease and precision
maybe grippads

this session is intikus and h
intikus is staying because i cant find a good reason for them to disappear mid dungeon crawl + i had a thing for them they didnt get to

fair enough for that
leaving mid dungeon is a mess to write for all involved
not to mention having to swap them out with 2 other players afterwards

Reject scug, return to monke

i was gonna make playable scavs at some point lol

oo
hushed bane
i also need to make the playable Sortcadas after i make the actual stats for em
somber plover
since i know h wanted to play a scav iirc
can i make a scav character?
is it too late
hushed bane
i can get working on a playable scav race if you'd like
im thinking of making a doc for all my homebrew races
and then porting the host to that
since tbh i think the host belongs on a homebrew doc, it looks kinda out of place compared to all the slugcats
regal mulch
Everyone make completely unique scav races then we'll classify them as closely to 5e classes as we can.
hushed bane
LMAO
Scav (Bard)
Scav (Cleric)
i think actually a cool species feature for scav would be like
adaptability?
so you can choose to be a Scav Hunter, Scav Gatherer or Scav Chieftain
hunter gives perks for attacking and stuff
gatherer is perks for preparing food / crafting
chieftain is support and boosting party members
somber plover
for adaptations you get jobs instead?
hushed bane
i was thinking like
regal mulch
Scav just gets to multiclass.
hushed bane
scavs would have roles in their tribes right?
hushed bane
ingame it's hard to tell but they act a lot like how ancient humans did
and back when we were hunter gatherers we had certain roles/jobs for people in the tribe
idk
somber plover
sounds cool
warped ice
adaptability?
THAT IS LITERALLY WHAT I WAS PLANNING
hushed bane

In Project Monsoon (my own Rain World TTRPG), I gave Scavengers bonuses to dodge and grip, but they lose the mouth inventory slot.

In Project Monsoon (my own Rain World TTRPG), I gave Scavengers bonuses to dodge...
oh cool!

dont scavs hold like 4 spears on their backs
maybe add extra spear slots as part of hunter adap

merchant is more charismatic and has crafting abilities

this looks rad
it's official
my campaign planning has gotten so unnecessarily huge that i now have cut content
i spent 3 hours making this first section of a region before scrapping it because it didnt have the vibe i was going for
somber plover
the vibes here are not very poggers
verbal ferry
yowch
somber plover
i just use bleach for mine
hushed bane
but yeah in that massive water bit to the right there was gonna be a massive cannibal leviathan
so if anything it's probably a relief

oh no it's a rival ttrpg
Well, perhaps we'll get the 5e VS Pathfinder thing, but with S&S VS PM
Where people just pick the system they prefer.
magic oasis
and the slugcat species are determined by traits instead of player types there
i.e, take a trait for saint tongue instead of making a saint slugcat

Those six aren't implemented yet. Oops.

i think you made a typo on the green lizards @verbal sandal
greens hunt blues, not cyans

OK. That's been fixed.

cyans are too beeg for greenies
and too fast
blue lizards just get bullied by everyone else
verbal sandal
If Cyans are similar in size to Greens, I should probably bump them up to Huge.

i do like how all the creatures do have their own stats technically already present
so theoretically it'd be very easy to take any of the creatures and turn them into a working character or NPC
verbal sandal
Perhaps I could add a section detailing how to reduce their power to that of a player character.
I don't think the character sheet shared properly, so here it is.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Xjs2M9IgqGF38f87OgR9_YEX6EsmuOsAaw7Ah_YNAGU/edit?usp=sharing
magic oasis
we don't use a stamina system
closest thing would be abilities that drain food, and the blessing system... which is probably getting removed/completely reworked
verbal sandal
Karma's sitting at an odd place in Project Monsoon. Its only use at the moment is death penalty reduction.
I'm not sure whether having traits that use Karma would be a good idea.
If it is, I have four ideas:
- Karmic Wrath: Increases damage dealt to a single target. Lasts until death, doesn't stack.
- Karmic Gluttony: Instantly consumes your fill of a corpse, or all food items in your inventory. (Latter might be more useful if I added cooking)
- Karmic Bond: (Making taming easier, and knowing about their status/location from now on?)
- Karmic Life: Healing a target considerably.
magic oasis
i don't think we've encountered a karma gate thus far
in the previous campaign, there was a karma 10 gate (guardians) though that was needed to ascend
warped ice
i think The Gate™️ was a karma 5 gate but im probably wildin

it was the gate
also theres another dead RW ttrpg
actually two
@quaint aspen do you have the server link for one of them still
verbal sandal
also theres another dead RW ttrpg
Interesting that there's just as many dead ones as there are living ones.
If we could find the old ones, perhaps they'll have useful information S&S and PM can cannibalise.
regal mulch
ik ones online
the other one is in a server
i cant find the first one
there is a slugcat race for dnd tho
hushed bane
lmao yeah
regal mulch
i need to find a way to do that
hushed bane
i was gonna add plants before realising nah thats too far
i'd spend more time on the art than the actual lore
regal mulch
yep
hushed bane
rad
regal mulch
found one of them
also @verbal sandal looking at your doc i would say word of advice on flora/fauna classification
i wouldnt use those classifications because the distinction in RW is very odd
wormgrass, pole plants, monster kelp all blur the line
hushed bane
i dont think this is a TTRPG

hushed bane
OH IT'S A CYOA
hushed bane
nah CYOAs are far from D&D campaigns
at least the imgur online ones are
they're just things that you put points into and imagine fun hypothetical scenarios / roleplay from them
there's never any set rules but always a point buy system for something
somber plover
cope
hushed bane
okay this is
really in depth
like
im really confused as to how you'd actually roleplay any of this in the first place because of how detailed the descriptions of the locations are
and every region has a perk?? idk why
OH FOR STARTING THERE
kind of a cool idea actually
not at all applicable to a TTRPG sadly though
but in a mod like expedition except you choose your starting region it'd be kinda cool
verbal sandal
The system's interesting and has fantastic art, but I question its flexibility.
regal mulch
no its obviously that the entire five pebbles superstructure only needs to visit an echo once to activate it
duh

Like everything else kinda makes sense as to like "yeah slugcats in shoreline would probably be more adapted to swim" bUT SPIDERS?

i mean both have a 1000 damage attack and 1000 hp
theyre basically enviromental hazards

I'm buffing Worm Grass from 1 HP to 20. Don't know why I had it at 1 before.
magic oasis
i don't agree with worm grass having hp
they should just remain as environmental obstacles rather than something that's killable
verbal sandal
It's probably best to move it to the environment section, then.

hi
warped ice
hello!
verbal ferry
i made arena level
warped ice
👀
ok unrelated but i think i might learn to prepare some roll20 premade battlemaps stylised as arenas for testing stuff in
verbal ferry
woa
warped ice
should i make a roll20 game for that or something, and give everyone full perms so we can test stuff out whenever
verbal ferry
ok
warped ice
will do that Soon™️
verbal ferry
i wanna see how overpowered green or white might end up being
warped ice
[when i learn how roll20 dming works]
[and when im done with scavs]
beastmaster scav ⁉️
that'd be cool tbh
random idea, at level 5 with a speciality you can choose to forgo an adaptation to instead get an extra ability relating to the speciality
so like
how are explosives ACTUALLY made
like whats in them that makes them go boom
warped ice
are those the uh
wacky firecracker plants
verbal ferry
yes
warped ice
how many would be a balanced amount [im making one of the scav specialities is crafting and like, they have so many explosives man we gotta be able to get some too]
like it'd probably take alot but how many sounds good like
5 or something? for a regular bomb
and maybe 3 or 4 for a spear
including their actual items, like an explosive spear would obviously need a spear and such
maybe 2 because like
reinforcing the spear to hold the extra weight of explosive
these are PROPER explosives not the weak lil artificer ones
verbal ferry
idfk man
warped ice
im just rambling about this mb
verbal ferry
im really not interested in scav subspecies ngl
warped ice
fair enough
regal mulch
I intend on making a spiritual scug at some point focused around beasts. I haven't fully figured out the lore which is why I haven't brought up any of the progress I've made(it's very little anyway lol)
hushed bane
i have 2 races in mind
verbal ferry
hm?

one being a "neuron cluster" - a gang of neuron flies that are independent and act as a mini hive mind
and these dudes

You wouldn't be able to move much. Seems like you'd be a bit restricted in the campaigns you could go through.
warped ice
fuck that
where my tube worm players at

actually
pole plant race gives me a really cool idea
modified pole plants
in the same vein as miros birds being mechanical birds
they act as like

regal mulch
i am thinking though
maybe we should use the build your own species system that PM uses
i like it
warped ice
the collective iq of this channel goes down when guh is said
regal mulch
bot you need to add marksman revolver to s&s
warped ice
ive already added blood healing [sort of] to one of the scav types i know what i must do
regal mulch
freezeframe could actually be added in all honesty
freeze a projectile for blessings
spear riding 
warped ice
that sounds
accursed but really cool at the same time
warped ice
regal mulch
how would we even
warped ice
that'd be sick ye
regal mulch
i should make my own ttrpg after this one
warped ice
you'd nail it, im sure
regal mulch
id 100% add a like
build your own moves system
see my problem is i dont want a fantasy system but i dont want a high tech system
so basically i want guns and swords in a medieval environment
warped ice
thats when you make your own setting so guns and swords both exist in medieval environment
regal mulch
arcane firearms
my idea was that basically magic has to be channeled through weapons
outside of small magical effects
problem is campaign settings
regal mulch
build your own moves system
id design them so you could make move synergies
build your own ultrakill
warped ice
you're making a system to combo stuff
regal mulch
yes
warped ice
as every system shoudl have
regal mulch
itd be classless
probably a ~20 level system
10 combat skills
10 non combat skills
or maybe just let you choose any lol

it was me half asleep reading somethhing wrong
before i go feel free to steal any of our adaps i dont mind

I'll see which ones I can port over.

later ima finish up the scavs and get back to work on roll20 arenas once i figure out where the fuck you get creature icons from

S&S and PM use the images from the wiki. It's usually the topmost one.
They're not perfect, but they should work as a stopgap.

hushed bane
hrmm so my idea is like
these neuron flies are "cancerous"
less in the tumoury-icky sense and moreso in the sense of cells rebelling against their composite organism
like a bunch of neuron flies in five pebbles gained sentience from a random mutation/bug and left
also i finished host
warped ice
i gotta play host sometime
hushed bane
also im thinking of adding a "homebrew links" section to the doc
so if anyone wants to add their homebrew stuff it'll be linked there
regal mulch
i was gonna do that
extra action hmmm
could be very strong but it seems fine
maybe add a risk of rotlings death when theyre attached
im thinking you can attach a rotling for 1 food pip or deattach it for free
if you have 3 attached you get an extra action
1 extra hand slot for each rotling attached because of rot limbs
entire extra action may be too strong so it could be a non combat action like riv
magic oasis
does a player count as their own tamed creature
verbal sandal
In PM, Slugcats and Scavengers don't have taming difficulties listed, so you wouldn't be able to tame yourself.
regal mulch
friendly
what would being tamed even add to them
double healing from that one adap?
or being able to control other rotlings with your rotlings?
hushed bane
maybe add a risk of rotlings death when theyre attached
yeah sure
i did the 2 food pips to attach and detach to balance out how powerful it is but
i think the risk of rotlings dying works way better
regal mulch
ill tweak it a bit in a little
but a 12 food pip risk for an action is a good tradeoff
hushed bane
ah cool
also im looking at the doc
are we changing creatures to have modifiers again instead of player facing rolls?
im seeing a bunch of suggestions to give everything modifiers and im a little confused
was that a thing that happened whilst i was taking a break from working on it
verbal sandal
I thought modifiers were already there, and people were suggesting changes to them.
regal mulch
are we changing creatures to have modifiers again instead of player facing rolls...
yeah we decided on it
they just fit the system better
were still converting creatures

honestly can't wait for future campaigns now that we have playable scavs and lizards
warped ice
not scavs yet
i sent you the doc but i still need to fix them
lizards tho
hushed bane
miros birds maybe
warped ice
i wanna make some custom slugcat variants tbh
and lizards
they're the only 2 i have alot of desire to make stuff for
hushed bane
i dont wanna make slugcat variant races atm
like they are cool and i have many ideas for new slugcat types but i wanna see how far i can push what counts as sentient
magic oasis
cabinet beasts
warped ice
can you tell me the ideas??? so i can steal get inspired for my own ones

and then the bottom 3 are like

isnt that just what every party of S&S is
regal mulch
tbh i still like player facing rolls more
they have their upsides but they were too consistent
regal mulch
The behemoth better be green 2.0
warped ice
big n slow n tanky?
i hope so too
regal mulch
so should i get changing things to modifiers?
sure
regal mulch
@hushed bane a bit of rebalancing
regal mulch
any changes that should be made to it?
hushed bane
nah I think it's great
regal mulch
host is very strong and i dig it
hushed bane
tomorrow I'm gonna move host to my homebrew doc
magic oasis
for every instance of damage taken in this state, a rotling attached dies
hushed bane
feels a little out of place next to the canon slugs though
hushed bane
truee, but idk if the average reader would really notice that
regal mulch
i sitll think they fit fine
we should make a seperate homebrew doc linked in homebrew section
ill do that later
regal mulch
for every instance of damage taken in this state, a rotling attached dies
fixed it a wee bit
regal mulch
i meant a homebrew doc that links to other ones
regal mulch
that could also work
hushed bane
i have a WIP doc with a bunch of my new creatures, races and objects in it
will probably link that when I finish a good majority of the stuff
hushed bane
ooo true
regal mulch
damn we are pretty close to being done
some more adaps would be nice but thats aobut it
hushed bane
yeah more adaps is something we should focus on
means more customisation in players' builds
regal mulch
converting items and creatures is easy but a bit of a slog sometimes
hushed bane
I can do that tomorrow
now that my brain is in the rain world zone I should be able to finish that quickly
regal mulch
thatll work
also btw how DLLs and BLLs are gonna work
400/200 hp but 4x damage from explosives
and fire
magic oasis
eradicate
regal mulch
actually its more like x7 rule now
regal mulch
average spear damage
hushed bane
oh fair
regal mulch
also DLLs should have 1400 HP with the x7 rule so we are hard nerfing it
they have 200 hp in game
magic oasis
aka, not physically killable without explosives
hushed bane
ah
regal mulch
heres all we have left
hushed bane
i can do objects tomorrow
then chip away at creatures
but for the races i think that's more of a collaborative thing
hushed bane
ah ok
regal mulch
you know what fuck it we ball time to make an adaptation
i had an idea that i stole from ultrakill
ability to freeze your and others projectiles midair
and then unfreeze them as a free action
magic oasis
autumn can we add the coin as an adaptation for spearmaster
regal mulch
HOW
magic oasis
king vulture chargebacks
hushed bane
i think a cool adaptation would be enhanced saliva
with 3 options:
adhesive saliva, sticky
repulsive saliva, makes surfaces bouncy
bioluminescent saliva
regal mulch
id say just 2
magic oasis
we're eventually going to encounter a scav that actually has the marksman coins
