Gatdamn, that's really cool. That design is full-on excellent. It probably helps that I've never seen non-doofy rendition of a kelpie before now. For a request that's kind of conventional, if anyone's up to it - gimme the haughtiest noblewomen-turned-rogues you've got. By that I mean they can be wearing fancy duds or rogueish armor, either/or is fine. Ideally with dark hair, but that's less important than the attitude. Someone who looks like they could be thinking, "yeah I know I'm an rear end in a top hat, but I can't help it that I'm just better than you." edit: Dark Souls art and the stuff inspired by it is one of my favorite sources for fantasy stuff even though I've never even played the games~    http://imgur.com/gallery/z1mra http://imgur.com/gallery/Sab9G It just hits a particular note that I really like.

I hope some of these get used in the upcoming DLCs, especially the Lion Lord an Forest Sage. Also looks like the Faram Set originally had Bernhart's helm.

Seriously, wtf, Wales. I thought midwinter was a time for people in northern hemispheres to come together and attempt to comfort one another as dire wolves eat the sun. Not in Gwent, apparently!

Water beasts don't get enough love. Jenny Greenteeth, Black Agnes, Bunyip, I guess maybe the various washers at the ford? Well, no, I guess those last ones just tell you you're hosed, they don't drag you under. But still! The kelpie comics rule!

I'm getting a weird fanart vibe from this person. Like they're going to have hundreds of comics dedicated to kelpies dragging people under. Hundreds, many of which won't see the light of day. Just the harsh glow of a monitor as they become a vehicle for their shameful acts. Course, I could be wrong!

The truth door doesn't know math, the lying door does. They both answer "I don't know".

We did that in a game I played in. It was a dungeon full of riddles and the last one was one lying and one truthful passage guardian, and while the wizard was puzzling out a way to solve it, my rogue just went 'What is 1 minus 1.'

Traditionally you're only allowed to ask one question, so now you know which door lies but not "which is the right way to go". The real answer, incidentally, is that they're always both hooked up to an orb of annihilation and you need to find a third door. Thanks, Gary.

If you want a really thorough exploration of how the whole riddle of the liar works To Mock A Mockingbird is a really neat book. It starts off with the really basic classic example and then starts riffing on it by adding in people who can choose to tell lies or whose truthfulness depends on the time of day and eventually gets around to a really complicated scheme of birds who call out each other's names depending on which names they hear from other birds. One of the things it gets into is how what you're really doing when you solve the riddle is asking two questions at once by having a "fill in the blank." "What would the other man say is the right way?" changes depending on who you ask.

Tasoth posted:Slap the halfling rogue in the back of the head and asked if you just slapped them. Knowing which person is lying doesn't get you which door to go into. As Zed pointed out, you have to ask a person which way the other person would say to go, and do the opposite.

As an aside: I've never played in an RPG session that featured riddles like that as a major plot point. Is it common to do things like that, where player-ability to figure out riddles directly impacts their success?

No, it's a really dumb and bad thing, and most nerds are poo poo at coming up with original riddles anyways, so it ends up being ones you hear in gradeschool when they do happen. Or really bad and stupid.

Just like you shouldn't ask some nerd to roleplay how he woos some lady at the inn when he's really socially awkward.

Everyone wants to be Tolkien, either riddling with Smaug and Gollum, or just "Speak, 'friend' and enter." Though, to take it back to the thread's theme, does anyone have any good art of parties trying to solve a puzzle or trap? I could actually use some inspiration for the like.

I just recently read something on this. Thats concept art for the villain to Treasure Planet 2. Which could have been a pretty cool movie, had traditional animated features not started floundering in the face of stuff like Pixar and Dreamworks. The budget for the original film was astounding. And it was only a flop because they had spent an obscene amount of money on it. So basically the sequel sunk like ... well, a sinking ship. It was basically the animated equivalent to Cutthroat Island. And proof that in this day and age stuff like Pirates of the Caribbean was a fluke. Basically dont bet your house on a Pirate flick.

Treasure Planet is the closest thing we'll ever have to Spelljammer: The Movie. I mean, look at these concepts. You cannot say that these guys wouldn't fit perfectly in an old D&D 2e monster manual.     And John Silver is this crazy cyborg bear-ish dude.  More here. That entire site is full of great concept art for big animation features.
