Would you be interested in playing dress-up with my character?

I want to see her in some new outfits! Her favorite color is yellow.

How to make snippets?

I've been trying to set up a template to actually look closer to the official pdfs for a certain system, and I'm making progress but am unsure how to make snippets for it.

As an example, this is some of what I have thus far:

https://preview.redd.it/4hgn2w7650oh1.png?width=1033&format=png&auto=webp&s=944eeef90526bc9bfda498aa2e8c98d65d766c88

While I know a couple of coding languages, I don't have any prior experience with html or CSS. All of my knowledge comes from roughly 40% W3schools and 60% one of my siblings who does graphic design, but neither of them seem to know how snippets are set up on Homebrewery in particular.

All I really want is a visual reference for what the snippets (code) would look like. It'd be even better if they were also the snippets from the PBP default template; then it'd be really easy to see the cause-effect relationship they have.

I could definitely go into detail with the specific things I'm trying to accomplish, but I'd be perfectly happy with getting just a little boost and then reverse-engineering what I want from there.

Impale Rules Ambiguity

Disclaimer: this post includes excerpts from the Keeper's Rulebook and Gaslight Investigator's Guide.

When I read the Impale rules from the Keeper's book, the wording led me to believe that you simply add the maximum possible roll value to the normal damage, not including any flat modifiers. I would partly lay the blame for this on the example they provide (second image), which uses a weapon that does not have a flat modifier.

However, the example from the Gaslight book includes the flat modifier in the extra damage, while leaving the rest of the word choices from the explanation the same.

Have I been interpreting it wrong this entire time? The way I coded the weapons for my Avrae sheet to work was based on my earlier assumption, and I should probably change it if that is the case.

It would be neat if you included the weird eye and sunglasses! Thanks to Defiant-Split3136 for the reference art as well

[LFA] Isana, Made from Thread

My Mutants & Masterminds character, Isana. Mutant, made of a long, string-adjacent substance that can reshape itself; almost a literal mimic. Asocial, loyal, and self-conscious. Negative STR. Likes urban exploration (especially HVAC ducts). Part-time cardigan.

[LFA] Listener, Silent Tiefling Inventor

This is one of my oldest character concepts, plus easily the one I've used the most times. Listener is always somewhere on the spectrum of inventor/detective, and most iterations of him don't speak. His design is also admittedly a little generic, so I'm hoping to see how creative people can get with him.

Would someone be interested in drawing Maril?

The story behind this character is sorta funny: when I was creating a character for a D&D group, I was typing up my backstory for the DM to review. I tend to pick genders for my characters based on the mood I'm in as I am creating them, and the draft I sent was just using they/them.

DM asked "is this character nonbinary?" And I figured "sure, why not."

Beyond that, I wasn't really even paying attention to it though. Since it was never stated, all the players kinda just ended up guessing at Maril's gender, with results at all ends of the spectrum. Not being bothered to correct them did seems to fit, however; Maril would be more focused on researching ancient curses and trying to keep their dumbass friends alive.

Thus came about my character who simply forgot to have a gender.

Some power concepts I had, might use them for if I make a martial character

I had ideas for some more unconventional power+modifier combos, and figured I might share them here. They're more martial focused, and I might try one or both out if I end up making a martial build.

Tentative title: Adrenaline Rush

  • Healing
  • Reaction
  • Limited (Self Only)
  • Temporary
  • Side Effect 1 (Damage Returns Immediately)
  • Subtle 2 *optional

You aren't healing yourself, merely fighting at full capacity despite the pain. If it's themed as an adrenaline-based ability, the Subtle can be a fun add-on; people have no way of outwardly knowing that their attacks haven't weakened you. It's also almost like a reversal of the balancing of Regeneration: while Regen gives you the advantage in a battle of attrition, requiring your enemy to take you out quickly, this makes you extremely resilient in the short term— while becoming a liability in any drawn-out conflict. Costs the same as vanilla Healing, plus the optional Subtle.

Tentative title: Reflexive Counter

  • Affliction (Vulnerable/Defenseless)
  • Reaction
  • Instant Recovery
  • Limited Degree 1

This one is kinda just meant to deal with enemies who put their active defenses far too high to be hit. It's possible that you could also justify putting Limited in there; Reaction isn't the most clear on whether or not they're still capable of triggering when you are Incapacitated. Adding in Alternate Resistance (Parry) would also make sense, but it kind of defeats the purpose.

[LFA] Zee, Anathema to Normal Physics

Background summary:

With the Zone warping Earth's normal denizens in ways that might've been thought impossible a decade ago, the world has clearly become far more dangerous. It was only natural that some would hope for "heroes" of a sort to rise up and save them. Zee (or whatever their name previously was) could get on board with this idea. When the organization they'd joined decided to throw them off a cliff as a test, they were somewhat less thrilled.

Turns out, Zee really could fly among other things. However, grooming someone for Great Things and then throwing them off a ledge has the potential to disillusion them with your ideology, and Zee would much prefer a world where this doesn't happen to people.

Cheerful, laid-back attitude. Kinda lazy; clever but prefers simple options. Polite but despises dogmatic individuals (for some unknown reason).

Lorel Lyndwelle, objectively the sparkliest dragonborn

It would be neat to see him with sharper (still floaty) fingers and his violin case. Aside from that, let your imagination run wild.
