I mean, at this point he just needs New Order to solo everyone

Well for starters, your reddit post was so obviously written by ChatGPT that I cannot trust that any human work was put into this. I won't bother any further.

Yeah, everytime I've used the tomato analogy it felt like a joke with no punchline and a part of me died a little so I've stopped

Grian said once "history doesn't repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme" and that quote stuck with me ever since. I'm dying to find a fitting opportunity to say it because I'm over-fixated on it.
Also this isn't exactly hermitcraft-related, but I'm a D&D player. I've seen the Gigs campaign (or at least what there is of it). When I teach new players how to play D&D, I now explain the Dex stat as "this is your ability to do backflips".

Reading this as 2 am and it took me a hot second to realise that no, you do not have two right hands instead

17 AC is too high? Normally it should be 15 (10+dex.mod.), but it felt a bit low so I added the proficiency modifier (seemingly like what the owlbear has). I felt it was alright due to its lower hp. I guess I could potentially bump the Con to 14 so it would have a bit more bulk.
I really hesitated on flyby. This would mean that the monster's tactics would become hit&run, and the martials would be essentially helpless against it. I do envision this monster on the agile side of things, but I think giving it a BA disengage would serve the same result except that the players have a little more room to do something about it.
The attacks are a bit weaker than the owlbear's, partially because of the flying speed, yeah, but mostly because Pack Tactics and the +7 to hit will do the heavy lifting. The prone effect is straight up canibalised from the wolf statblock, so I like the idea. I like the idea of buffing the prone effect a bit.
Ultimatelly I see this monster as the leading monster in, likely, a pack of wolves, so I'm not worried too much about the weaker attacks.
Thanks for the input!

(In Present Mic's voice, cue hyped bgm) BLEACHEDFLY! HERO NAME: LEGEND. QUIRK: BIGOTRY. WHENEVER SHE INTERACTS WITH SOMEONE, SHE INSTANTLY KNOWS WHAT MINORITY THE PERSON IS A PART OF, AS WELL AS EXACTLY WHAT KIND OF SLUR TO SAY TO PROVOKE EMOTIONAL DISTRESS IN HER TARGET! IF THE PERSON ISN'T PART OF A MINORITY, SHE CAN THEN INSTEAD MAKE ONE UP, BUT THE END RESULT ISN'T GUARANTEED!

I would just be cautious around sidewalk tiles if I were you
Natwenny
Hmm nah they're probably playing Hytale

Minecraft's inventory has been in dire need of a rework for some time now, but having a pocket dimension to store a total of 2304 units of ANY item regardless of weight would be an awesome quirk to have
Natwenny
This is likely how I would discover my quirk, yes

I've been wanting a "Smelting" enchantment for some times now. The idea would be simple: if you break a block using a tool enchanted with Smelting and that block has a "cooked" version, you get the cooked version. Chopping a tree log with a Smelting axe would give charcoal, mining iron with a Smelting pickaxe would give an iron ingot, mining stone would give smooth stone, etc. The enchant would be mutually exclusive with Fortune and Silk Touch.

Cyber-squatting is a real thing: people buy domain names in the hope that if the "official" entity wants to make a website, they'll have to buy the domain name from them this is likely the main reason why everyone in the pokemon community though that there would be a "pokemon Grey" and later, a "Pokemon Z": nintendo had preemptivelly bought those domains in case they'd need it just to counter cyber-squatting
Natwenny
What do you mean by "AI solution"? Do you mean "a solution against AI", or "a solution that uses AI"? Because frankly, one of these options can rot in the depths of hell
Natwenny
I didn't watch hxh
Natwenny
Eh, it's alright, I'm not mad at you or anything haha
Glad it's working out for both of you!
Natwenny
That would fall under the "you can't benefit multiple times from the same source" rule, so no it wouldn't stack.
From one designer to another, I see what you're doing. You're giving feedback based on your experience to try and help. But now that you got your educated point across, know that saying stuff like "while thinking about how bad it is" is helping no one at best, and discouraging OP from looking to improve in this sub-hobby that is game design at worst. This sound condescending and I know by the general tone of your comment that this isn't your intention
Natwenny
Based on my personnality? Aight bet.
Quirk: Dice Gamble. Whenever I roll a dice, the outcome of next thing I do will reflect the result of the die. The higher the number, the better the result. The drawback is that it's a gamble: if I get a 1 on the die, it's the worst possible outcome, sometimes even catastrophies.
So I could play it "safe" and roll a d100 for a higher average and litterally 1% chance of a disaster happening, but when those 1s happens, it could potentially kill me.
But hey, I'm a DnD player. I'd likely use a d20.
Natwenny
Now having the best possible result at anything you do would be a great quirk

None on them are with solamnia, and one of my players is actually very anti-solamnia (when I presented the setting and said that some people blamed Solamnia for the Cataclysm, his first reaction was to make his character "one of those people". I believe this is why he has a one-sided beef with Darett but I'm not sure
Natwenny
Yeah, I don't know every book there is, but I've been trying to suggest playing something else for some time now. I can't just stop DMing as this is a paid campaign, but their attitude toward the railroady parts is taking a toll on my own fun haha
Natwenny
That's a good idea. I know Bakaris is going to spread rumors about them. I could still use that as an incentive to leave. They've showed interest in the storyline of the Dragon Army and one of them seems way more interrested in the story since I introduced Soth. So maybe "getting rid" of Kalaman would be the way to go.
Natwenny
This is what I think as well. Glad I'm not crazy
