Re: Anatomy of Failed Design: Vampire
Unless you create an Essence-like stat with blood as a volumetrically independent carrier, you need make like two teaspoons equal to a blood point. In Chinese alchemy, one drop of semen is equal to ten drops of blood. Amateur internet research says that the average volume of emission is about 3/4 o...

In Chinese alchemy, one drop of semen is equal to ten drops of blood. I don't deal in funny British measurements or know much about male workings, how many cocks would you have to suck to get a tenth of a pint and thus enough for one Blood Trait? I believe this is one for our resident medical exper...

I asked my culinary professor the fermenting blood thing once (spurred by a shitty Halloween bottle label), and he said the protein would just rot/decompose. So you can't really make blood wine, because there's too much protein to, as Frank says, too little sugar. So how much sugar would you have t...

Suppose you needed to get 2000 calories from human flesh. How many humans' worth of flesh is this exactly? Or, perhaps more precisely, what weight of human flesh would deliver 2000 calories if eaten? On a related note - for a typical, healthy adult human, what percentage of their blood would be suga...

that the Republic as being a reference to the absurdities of the US legal system and police brutality and untouchability that seems relevant these days or something. For something topical you can have Ronald Rump as the Eternal President of the Republic. I prefer to have references be a bit less bl...

Something I probably didn't stress in fluff is that the Republic does *not* have a raging boner for illiteracy and ignorance. Their xenophobia isn't utterly unreasonable but their dictatorship is more like North Korea than Nazi Germany. Batshit crazy leader and plenty of propaganda. Thank Buddha fo...

So, I've been doing some fluff expansion on the world of Nexus. One of the changes that my take on it will have is that I want the United Republic to be less 'RIFTS Coalition-like Nazis' and more 'MegaCity One'. You can blame my Judge Dredd binge lately, but that's what I'm going for in my take. I h...

Like the blank on Spells and Psy for Combat Borg and the like? It means nothing of this kind. At one point I had dashes on there, but I went through and made it blank where there's none to start with since it is possible to purchase them later. Ah, ok. Thanks for clarifying that. Something omitted ...

Give me the low-down on Fate Core
By 'Fate Core', I mean this. I need the Den's style of merciless, laser-precision criticism, please - what are the system's failure points? What is it bad at? What (if anything) is it good at? Would you recommend its use?

It mentions needing specific feats to extract poison from vermin, but I'm not sure what the process is to extract poison from say a viper or a dead wyvern, or a living wyern. I didn't see that anywhere there. To quote: According to Drow of the Underdark, it's a DC 15 Handle Animal check to get a ve...

Power level of Russian folk tales and myths' opposition
This is in particular addressed to our resident Russians (you know who you are), but if you want to offer advice, I would greatly welcome it! I want to know roughly (in DnD 3.5 CR/level terms) how powerful the opposition in Russian myths and legends is. We're talking both named individuals (like Kos...
