This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Necrozius;768227Were Incubi ever included in DnD? I dont't think that they're in 3e or 4e.

That would have implied the existence of female players and then by inferrence the subversion of their rights and this leads to rape culture and that flows into mother may I and then Orcus cries because they stole his bitches and things deteriorate from there...

It isnt pretty.

So no incubus.

There's incubi in 4e (Check the Demonomicon), and (IIRC) there was at least one previous take on them. Also Succubi have been able to assume male form at least since 3e.

Rachel Bonuses: Now with pretty

Quote from: noismsI get depressed, suicidal and aggressive when nerds start comparing penis sizes via the medium of how much they know about swords.

Quote from: Larsdangly;786974An encounter with a weird and potentially life threatening monster is not game wrecking. It is the game.

Currently panhandling for my transition/medical bills.

Quote from: LibraryLass;768125Considering 4e/5e tieflings are assumed to be descended from pacts/intermarriage with devils, who are rigidly lawful, it sort of makes sense that they would tend to be standardized. Random traits seem more appropriate for the inherently chaotic demon-descended types.

I would be more than satisfied if they went with this. It would work perfectly with the subrace option you mentioned earlier.

Quote from: CRKrueger;768146Christ, how fucking pathetic.  Poor Orcus.

Man I love these old school b&w penciled and/or inked pieces. I like a pretty wide range of fantasy art but I have a soft spot for this sort of medieval demonic/satanic imagery that you don't see much of these days. Is that weird? It sounds weird. Maybe I should stfu.

You aren't alone on both your preferences.

Dragon #13, the demon generation rules, reprinted in Best of Dragon...One I want to say.
Even the the "cutting edge" storygamers for all their talk of narrative, plot, and drama are fucking obsessed with the god damned rules they use. - Estar

Yes, Sean Connery\'s thumb does indeed do megadamage. - Spinachcat

Isuldur is a badass because he stopped Sauron with a broken sword, but Iluvatar is the badass because he stopped Sauron with a hobbit. -Malleus Arianorum

"Tangency Edition" D&D would have no classes or races, but 17 genders to choose from. -TristramEvans

  An incubus NPC--the Gentleman Caller--was a recurring background character in Ravenloft for the latter part of the line's run. He never appeared on stage where the PCs could encounter him (at least, in the published product), but he set a lot of things in motion.
