D&D Demotivators level IV: Ability Increase

Is that... is that the Eagle Riders?

What? You were expecting Voltron?

Am I the only one who was hoping for a version of this when they heard about the G-Force movie?

Is that a reference to an H.P. Lovecraft story? I know I've read descriptions of Azathoth that were exactly like that.

Yup. The others are Yog-Sothoth and Nyalarthotep. I couldn't think of good equivalents for the other Yozis.

Hey, Urpriest, we used the same quote!

Do you have the source on this one(unaltered)? The only version tineye can find is kinda small.

[GoblinArchmage]

Them too. I just hadn't heard of Malfeas before. I googled it and got some results about Exalted. I'm assuming it's that system's token pseudo-Lovecraftian entity.

Nope, it's the king of the universe's creators, turned inside out and serving as a prison for the others.

You need the Fae, some Behemoths or maybe something in the Underworld for Lovecraftian.

And the PCs can kick all of their asses.

And the PCs can kick all of their asses.

At character creation.

[Arbane]

At character creation.

You're going to need SOME XP for that, really.

[absolmorph]

You're going to need SOME XP for that, really.

Maybe to beat Malfeas.

I meant the entire circle vs a single enemy, not one on one.

[Drascin]

Still will certainly get annihilated, really. Malfeas gets over a thousand motes and can therefore perfect longer than all of you put together and fill the area with environmental effects that force you to perfect or die several times per action. Without at least a tick-long, you're really kind of screwed.

And of course there's the matter of actually hitting him. Because he gets a lot more dice than you do. Really, for all their hype, chargen exalts aren't really all that.

[Morph Bark]

What? You were expecting Voltron?

Honestly?

...

I don't care. Because that picture is awesome. I would also like to know its source (the one of them in black uniforms you used for the motivator that is).

[TheCountAlucard]

Yeah, the only Yozi that a circle of Chargen Exalts is likely to beat is the Ebon Dragon, and even that's a slim chance without optimizing specifically for it... and that's because he's a total coward, and will give up the first time someone is able to hit him.

You mean getting charms with the Holy key word, or taking Crane Style?

[TheCountAlucard]

No, I mean being able to reliably hit a DV 15 dematerialized being, while you're taking a -10 on your rolls.

[Urpriest]

Them too. I just hadn't heard of Malfeas before. I googled it and got some results about Exalted. I'm assuming it's that system's token pseudo-Lovecraftian entity.

Basic explanation: in Exalted the universe was created by a bunch of beings that embody various concepts and to whom humans are essentially insignificant specks. Malfeas, once known as the Empyreal Chaos, embodied the concept of kingship, and could not conceive of any beings disobeying him. When defeated he was turned inside out and became a city, which is constantly full of demons making raucous noise. One of his avatars in that city (using avatars in a very loose sense, there are much more precise terms Exalted uses) is a brass dancer which constantly dances to the music produced by these demons. One of his avatars used to be the sun, but a sun of green nuclear fire. (So the Nuclear Chaos moniker is in there in a few pieces).

She Who Lives In Her Name is sort of a giant demonic mathematician, roughly speaking. Hates free will. She's not really all that much like Yog-Sothoth, but like him she's made of a bunch of spheres.

The Ebon Dragon is Snidely Whiplash as a Magnificent Bastard. He's a spiteful schemer and manipulator who invented free will just to corrupt it and virtue just to have something to oppose. He's also black and thin, like Nyalarthotep.

Finally, something all my groups can relate to!

Also, @Fox Box, I'll need a couple days to find it again on deviantArt, but I'll send you a link soon enough.

[MightyPirate]

I need the source for this. Like, need need.

Tineye and Google bring me to Malachi Maloney, aka Liquidwerx. I won't link as his site contains some NSFW pieces.
