/fur/ - Furry★

I've explained this elsewhere, but, long story short, no.

Furries are in for the aesthetic.

Play with /tg/. They don't mind beast races, or even fur shit so long as you don't go too far and remember that character comes first.

>>54253 (OP)

Also, kobolds are intelligent. They're just too paranoid, instinctual, and dragon-obsessed to use it much.

>>54256

>Also, kobolds are intelligent. They're just too paranoid, instinctual, and dragon-obsessed to use it much.

Kobolds also live in a highly tribal xenophobic society that regularly kills people.

To me it's similar to playing a Drow who doesn't steal or murder, at that point all you're playing is an elf with black skin and white hair.

>>54257

True. That shit is 100% cancerous

>>54253 (OP)

I don't play DnD, but I hate this shit so much in SS13. It's so bad that you get banned for killing or insulting their OCs. Nothing negative can happen to them whatsoever. It's kind of why I'm glad that they were prohibited on lifeweb, everyone acted more humble and realistic because of it.

This isn't really just furries. Most people are incapable of separating from their own ego. They find it impossible to play a character, and instead just play themselves... with special powers, as a self-insert fantasy.

>>54257

Anyone who plays a drow is, in all likelihood, an edgelord, anyway.

Kobolds are something I wish more people fiddled with. They've got a lot more to them than the traditional goblin almost mook.

With the xenophobia, for instance. It isn't so much built by fear, as it is massive draconic pride. To a kobold, nothing could be better than a kobold, besides a dragon.

Problem is, pretty much everything is, anyway.

To a kobold, this would be the same as that one lazy fatass at work who never does a thing, yet receives constant praise, while you toil away and get nothing. It's viewed as an insult. Naturally, when faced with an obviously inferior being who somehow stands well above the kobold, is stronger than said kobold, and gets better stuff than the kobold, the kobold's reaction is going to be one of deep seated disgust, jealousy, and general purpose hatred.

>>54260

Ss13's problem was more around poorly writ races, there.

Vox were fine, for example. Bunch of greed filled space gypsies who breathed nitrogen with history and culture of their own.

reptilian kobold a best. dogs are shit

>>54262

this is true, there was a guy that I knew in high school whomst've played over 15 runs of skyrim as basically the same character, a blond nord warrior, him being a blond white man

>>54296

I'm almost as bad. Every RPG that allows it, I'll be a sneaky sniper. It's just too damn efficient, and fits my personality exactly.

>>54303

What exactly are you trying to imply here? I take my dragon on walks every day, I keep his water and food bowls filled, I got him a bunch of cute collars and leashes and I even check his prostate regularly for cancer.

If that's not love then I don't know what is.

>>54303

Dragon abuse turns me on.

I think this level of faggotry qualifies as a medical condition, OP.

The point of tabletop gaming anywhere in the modern age is to do things that you can't do in video games. Trying to tell any group that they are D&D'ing wrong might mean you might be the problem. You could:

-Find a different group

-Bring up this problem with your GM

-Choose a different engine to run instead of D&D every time.

If these people are your friends, you should be able to clear this with them. Maybe GM your own group and use this knowledge to manipulate your group. You have all the power to make something happen and instead choose to bitch about it anonymously on a board to people who could take or leave your ideas of how things run.

>>54303

>>54268

This sounds pretty hillarious, honestly. I could see it done well.

Kobolds already regard dragons as pretty much the most important thing. So excuses like "They burned down our village, kidnapped the princess, and ate all our cattle" would be met with a bunch of "Well they need to do that, that's their culture you need to be more tolerant you bigot!"

>>54326

>complaining about things is bad

Nah bro, fuck you.

People can complain about whatever they damn well please. Doing it on an anonymous board like this is just a gateway for easier worries and problem outlets.

>>54326

I don't think it's possible to miss the point this hard.

>The point of tabletop gaming anywhere in the modern age is to do things that you can't do in video games

It's very rare these groups attempt to tell a story that's worth telling

>Trying to tell any group that they are D&D'ing wrong might mean you might be the problem

I should note that the game was not designed with furry races in mind. The vast majority of D&D groups don't do this and many ban furry races outright because of shit like this that ruins games. I've seen it happen. Later editions of D&D added some races that can be construed as furry but I've also seen DM's ban them for similar reasons or just not run rulesets that have them.

>You have all the power to make something happen and instead choose to bitch about it anonymously on a board to people who could take or leave your ideas of how things run.

This isn't directed at a single group. It's directed at a pattern I've observed over a few years toward specific tabletop groups I've either seen or participated in and seeing a few specific factors as to why they weren't very good. This isn't even an original sentiment I've seen it repeated many times by DM's I've played with. It's arguably a modification of the game that furries have just been doing because they wanna ruin it with their OCs.

>>54326

>This pozzed acceptance attitude

Wew

>>54265

I have a few kobold characters, one being an artificer after having his entire clan wiped out by a roving pack of adventurers and went on a crusade to destroy magic itself (He actually succeeded in that campaign and somehow just removed magic entirely from his dimension before using the last bit of it to move on to another dimension where it existed )

Then I have another kobold who was raised by dwarves as a joke but ended up becoming a true terror. He's incredibly stupid, talks with a heavy lisp because most of his teeth have been knocked out, but is on par with a battle rager. To offset his low intelligence he has surprisingly high charisma so everyone knows him as a lovable idiot that sometimes convinces his party to do really stupid stuff like throwing him through a stone wall so he can grab the "Thnackieths" even though theres an open door to the room, or use explossives to blast him over a wall so he can punch someone for calling him short.

>>54414

Surprisingly not a whole lot of changes to make.

Bahamut is a lesser deity but a lawful good one, he could just impart on a silver dragon to say "Hey, wipe out those kobolds" and by a slew of random events said kobold becomes a paladin for Bahamut

>>54422

I'm more of a fan of worshiping the dragons directly. Figured around that I'd just handwave as dragons are massively powerful forces of natural magic, and ultimately gods in their own right. Though, I guess that does still leave powers under explained, as far as a cleric or paladin is concerned.

>>54413

Oh I should be getting a proper (clothed) ref sometime soon. I'm just a degenerate, mostly. And I guess I could do a shitty edit to remove her vagoo if I really had to. Or just not use it, and/or crop it to just her face and shoulders. Hell I just cropped it right now. What'chu think?

>>54414

Seems like a neat idea, though a Kobold Paladin Deus Vulting anyone who speaks ill of dragonkind would make a pretty funny (if short) campaign

>>54412

I like your lizard. Only complaint is the relatively normal cunt instead of a cloaca, and the awful color band things which I really just blame on the artist to be quite honest, as the colors themselves aren't really that appauling as it is the blending involved.

Why play D&D at that point?

Ironclaw would work just as well and every animal race has a framework of culture and background to help characters too. Not quite Redwall levels of race predetermining actions, but still enough to give players a chance for yiffe and rollplay.

>>54473

Because, again, furries are in for the aesthetic, not the actual character, story, or even game really.

Iron claw looks like fun, though.

I'm relatively new to D&D and have very minor experience as a DM. If anyone wanted to and was dedicated to play some I could set something up...

>>54481

Cloacas.

Besides, that was only a couplea posts.

>>54482

The plural is cloacae.

>>54481

As is the natural progression of things.

>>54481

tfw not a cboy kobold

>>54520

Cuntboys are shit

>>54523

>>54520

Vagibro.

Also, what he said. Cboys are shit, and I am sick and tired of the whole "OH KOBOLDS HAVE NO DISCERNABLE GENDER" shit.

>>54530

>KOBOLDS HAVE NO DISCERNIBLE GENDER

Well, considered 99% of the lewd art of kobolds are females, it's largely irrelevant.

>>54554

>99% of the art is female

is that really true?

>>54570

No. Maybe the majority, but I've not really got any means to measure that. Definitely not 99%.

>>54570

I consulted e621. Searched "kobold, solo, rating:explicit and rating:questionable" and variously with male or female.

Got 193 males and 346 females, which is about 36% to 64%. I wouldn't know how accurate this is compared to all sources, but e621 always struck me as having a lot more males than most furry sites. For example, on this board, I've never seen a single kobold male posted.

>>54579

Well this is a very christian family friendly board where discussion thrives and porn is shunned so I wouldn't take this place as a source for any kind of study.

>>54601

>christian family friendly board

I was going to say that this is largely a violently anti-gay board... but really that's the same thing.

>>54602

I don't see how anyone could label this as "anti-gay". We've got plenty of gay stuff, it's just not the big thing as it was on /furry/, mainly because we actually like to discuss things.

Plus, considering this is the internet, an internet image board at that, I really don't think you could classify it as "violent". Unless you're the type of assfucking dumpstercunt dipshit what thinks words are somehow violence.

In any case;

>>>/tumblr/

>>54605

>1 post per hour

>discussion

>>54607

I sure as fuck prefer what we've got to /furry/'s "activity".

>>54605

>I don't see how anyone could label this as "anti-gay". We've got plenty of gay stuff

Anon, he was being ironic. Joking, as it were.

>>54608

/furry/ died because nobody would clean up Buis spam. Why he hasnt sperged out here I have no idea.

And this seems like an antigay board because we cant just do porn dumps

>>54600

>I would unironically be fine with this though. Or just any furry RPG.

>Someone play with me...

See >>54476

>>54618

Didn't see that, sounds cool!

>>54618

I'd join but unfortunately, I've not really got a regular schedual. Would have to know what sort of time it'd end up being, normally.

>>54605

It's only a few threads here and there, but it does happen. Less now that overall board activity has been in a severe decline.

Something that always bugged me about Skyrim is that Khajiit are supposed to be banned from cities because of their reputation as thieves and drug dealers. If you actually play as a Khajiit though, the guards don't stop you at the gate or anything.

>>54634

It's /pol/-tier bait threads, and we've also had the same style shit from gays.

I wouldn't count low quality bait either way, mate

>>54635

Always bothered me. Only difference is that the enemies shout things at you depending on your race. Otherwise nothing changes.

On the other hand, it'd be hard to imminent that without breaking peoples game, I guess. Still, you could have to do a quest first to prove you're an okay guy

>>54623

/furry/ was pretty good if you wanted to do the one thing 90% of furries want to do: talk about and share porn.

You can jump up and down yelling how /fur/ is so much better since it has """"""""quality discussions"""""", it won't change the fact that it's dead in the water and those quality threads of yours get maybe one post per day if it's the weekend

>>54635

The one thing that bugged me about Skyrim is the garbage human feet for beast races.

Honestly Todd step your game up.

>>54643

/furry/ had plenty of discussion back in the day. It didn't turn to shit until after the first wave of spamming, and after that pretty much nothing was left except for porn dumps, because they could be created quickly. All discussion threads were stopped because nobody felt like contributing to a conversation that might get wiped out the next week, and have to start from square-one.

>>54644

I had forgotten this, as I got a raptor feet mod. Though, the hands are also really shit.

>>54643

This thread's getting plenty of posts. It's fast enough for me. Maybe a touch slower than /tg/ is, but a comfortable rate, nonetheless. Certainly not one that I'd trade for /furry/'s content.

>>54644

>>54656

How do I know you have no idea how video games are developed?

>proper digitigrade argonians/kahjiit

>"better" hands

>implying anyone in their right mind would make, implement and debug all the animations specific for just 2 out of the quintigillion races of skyrim

It doesn't make them not shit, but it would've been stupid of them to do the above.

Ever wondered why the beast races' tails look like they were just slapped on haphazardly on the human skeleton and animated via physics simulation?

Because that's what they did.

Same reason why the tails and the argonian horns clip through clothes.

It was lazy of them, but also cost-efficient.

>>54658

You don't have to change anything for feet and hands.

Not that this is really a very good set of reasoning. Laziness is no excuse.

>>54618

>>54624

Sooooo... How do I contact you/what setting and time did you want to do?

>>54665

I'm >>54476

If anyone wants to play something that I can setup, my email is furgm@cock.li

I'm also slightly autistic so I'll probably be a bit more on the serious side as a GM.

>>54659

>You don't have to change anything for feet and hands.

Wrong.

>Also, there are effectively only three races.

Duh.

>be Bethesda

>ok guys, we built and implemented the skeletal system that works for all the humanoid races except kahjiit and argonians

>these last two would require a separate skeleton just for them, separate animations, a separate implementation, separate versions of pieces of apparel and days of debugging.

>or, we could just copy the human skeleton and the animations we already have, slap a floppy noodle on their ass and call it a tail and then call it a day, what do you think?

Guess which of the two options is the cheapest one? (and also the laziest one, but that's beside the point)

>>54666

I'll shoot you one, but most like I am going to be unable to play unless is in the daytime.

>>54667

Mod literally just changed the feet, so that's clearly wrong.

>>54669

> I am going to be unable to play unless is in the daytime.

There is not set time so far, but I was thinking twice a week or so. Once on the weekend and once somewhere in the middle. This all depends on how many players there are and how much they want to play. With my current, and very small, group, we have a single 4 hour session a week. I'm not sure what is the "usual" time spent is for this.

>>54670

>Mod literally just changed the feet, so that's clearly wrong.

Funny, because by acknowledging the fact that the mod just changes the feet, you basically proved me right.

That's literally all it's doing, which is the equivalent of putting high heels on argonians, rather than having a proper digitigrade skeleton. It kinda works I guess, but under the hood, it's still the same human plantigrade skeleton.

But sure, keep pretending you know better than I do.

>>54672

Good thing I never said shit about plantigrade, then.

>>54671

Problem I have is, I work on the weekends and at night. Such is life doing pizza delivery.

Good money at least. But organizing any game night is a bit of a pain in the rear.

>>54673

Its not an issue, during the week days could be fine depending if anyone else joins.

>>54678

>not showing the argonians running at their leader afterwards

>>54602

They don't do it because they hate you, this board is pretty gay. They do it because a lot of gays are tumblrites who to reform the blunt nature of board culture by turning it into another Twitter/Tumblr.

>>54412

i bet i could do a better one

>>54701

do it then, faggot

>>54660

>>54658

>>54644

>>54635

I wish /tes/ was more active. Can we start a tes thread here?

>>54705

Go for it. I bet we could discuss things. TES had a lot of potential with beast races. On top of ARgonians, Khajiit, and the werewolves, you also had the ancient snakefolk of Cyrodiil, and the dragons themselves were clearly sapient enough to speak at least.
