Humor, jokes, memes about TTRPGs
My players favorite ruler they ever met was a crippled, emaciated dwarf king who could barely sit up right while wearing his crown because it was too heavy for his weak neck.
One of my players almost cried when that ruler died at the end of the campaign.
I'm stealing this
Go for it. For more info: He was fairly young, considered wise and intelligent, and beloved by his people. He spoke softly and struggled to stand on his own, and died sacrificing himself for his people. When he was told that his advisor had been shown the future, where the king dies because he stood against the forces of a dark god, he was fine with that future because to him it was better to die standing for others than to live cowering on his throne.
I think my favorite variation of this was a DM posting about how they had made their BBEG Hitler but hot and changed a bit of the flavoring to fantasy and his table sided with them the whole game. To the DM's horror.
Well that's fucking terrifying
takes notes about a sexy fantasy version of Ghengis Napoleon Trump Hitler Khan to really test the theory
Stamets! Good to see you around!
I'm back?
Welcome back!
Thank you buddy <3
Finally, alt history that makes sense. "Hitler could've won WW2 if he was a sexy lady"
Nah, it'd need to be a sexy man. Otherwise, there's no way fascists will listen to her.
Depends on how sexy and evil. Kim Jong Un's sister would immediately win against South Korea for example, due to the sheer amount of defectors who would cross to the north to be her warrior consorts. They'd go in and clear South Korean towns relentlessly just to grind rep. She'd gobble up Japan and swathes of China, too.

You always have to package good people with secret shames so suspicious players can gauge how good or evil they are. What people feel they need to hide is a good measure of what they consider acceptable. For example, a lawful good character could be ashamed by ignoring a person asking for help, but a lawful evil character might be ashamed that they indiscriminately murdered adults & children.
the ruler is a sentient kitten made immortal by a witch. it can't talk but it listens to its advisors and stamps its tiny little pawbeans down on laws that it agrees with
I'm querying my internal meme database and if I recall weren't these pictures of before and after Square announced FF VII port for the PS3. Not the remaster, just a playable port. And the pictures are reversed timeline, meaning they were very excited (bottom picture), but then quickly disappointed (top picture) after realized Square pulled a switcharoo? Could be wrong but going crazy with the thought now!
So disappointed they changed clothes and went to a different venue 😉
