If I ever said that I was fond of that picture, I'd like to retract my previous statement.Lago wrote:I'd normally never comment on this, but I have some vague prehistoric memory of Maj and Crissa and Frank saying the same thing back when there was a Nifty. So I guess I might as well get this mini-rant off my chest.
You actually liked that? I, well, while I didn't hate the picture I didn't think it was any good. The dryad was generically cute and so out-of-place she looked stupid. Like if you commissioned the artist of the Disney comic and the people who create aliens for Star Trek to come up with their interpretation of a dryad. From a 'oh, it's so pretty' standpoint I don't really see that either. She's all-right looking.
They got the "one with the tree" concept down in that picture, but what I don't get is the butterface. The picture has great potential up to the neck and then it just goes off intoLago wrote:Now granted I didn't care for the 3.5E replacement, but at least that dryad LOOKED like an alien exotic creature rather than some schoolteacher cosplaying as Demeter.
I don't have a problem with nudity in art - as long as it looks like art. Stuff like the 3.0 nymph - even though she's clothed - looks too much like your typical porn star. I blame the artist and the lack of context - the nymph is just standing there posing like the proper response is jumping her. This {NSFW, boobs, anime} is more my style of a nymph, though preferably with a little less anime-ness.PR wrote:Succubi are supposed to be sexy, so they can be heavily sexualized. I still wouldn't go with bare breasts, though. The rest of the art needs to be pretty conservative. No giant breasts, no chainkinis, no bare midriffs. Then again, I'm quite the prude.

Your freedom to add and change rules in the middle of the game is in direct conflict with my ability to understand that rules system before I decided whether or not to join your game.
In short, your entire post is dismissive of not merely my intelligence, but my agency. And I don't mean agency as a player within one of your games, I mean my agency as a person. You do not want me to be informed when I make the fundamental decisions of deciding whether to join your game or buying your rules system.

See, given the new picture, if they left that line in the book, then all nymphs would commit suicide upon looking at themselves in their bathing water.3.0 Monster Manual, page 143 wrote:Nymphs hate evil and ugliness.

People usually use penii as a joke, to make fun of people who hypercorrect platypi, octopi, rhinoceri, hippopotami and so on. I'm totally with you on "If you HAVE to use the ancient Greek, it's oktopodes. Are you ancient Greek? No? Then fucking call them octopuses." but penii is kind of funny. And presumably serves as a lesson.FrankTrollman wrote:Just got to say, if you want to make bullshit archaic Latin/Greek pluralizations of genitals, you don't use the word "penii" because that's not a word.

If I want to make "bullshit archaic Latin/Greek pluralizations of genitals" (or other kinds of words, for that matter), then it doesn't matter if they're right or not because they're, well... bullshit.Frank wrote:Just got to say, if you want to make bullshit archaic Latin/Greek pluralizations of genitals, you don't use the word "penii" because that's not a word.

That said, I use the words chimerae and medusae when really, it won't kill me to say "medusas" and "chimeras".
Umm, guys? Did anyone notice her lower right leg doesn't line up with her hips or the upper right leg? I thought I was looking at it wrong for a second, but it doesn't have the right perspective or angle to be the left leg either.CatharzGodfoot wrote:mean_liar wrote:I don't recall what the 3.0 dryad looked like.

I'm not sure what the big deal is. There are many more risqué monsters.
Thank you, Mr. Trollman. I can now die happy.FrankTrollman wrote:Just got to say, if you want to make bullshit archaic Latin/Greek pluralizations of genitals, you don't use the word "penii" because that's not a word. They are:
Vagina => Vaginae

Penis => Penes
Anus => Ani

What we have here is anatomically impossible.

You should gain sanity for finding out that the problems of a region are because there are fucking monsters there.
