DFRPG / Re: The Future of the Line

Would be pretty bitchin' if there was an expanded settings and/or campaign book. I'm a semi-newbie looking to GM, a little bit lazy, and pretty overworked. Would be nice to see how the pros plan things out with this system.

DFRPG / Swords Nitpick
« on: April 20, 2010, 09:27:48 PM »
A very minor nitpick on the swords: Islam claims direct descent/familial ties to Judeo-Christianity. Muslims regard Christ as a Prophet. Shouldn't the Swords also be drawing on power from the billion Muslims on the planet too?

I know it's not much, but we've had an agnostic and a probable Shinto-Buddhist Knight. May have even had a recent Muslim Knight too ("The Egyptian" - Egypt ain't known for being a hub of Christianity in modern times), to say nothing of Shiro's idea that "God is God" -- which may or may not draw power from Hinduism too, if you squint at it a bit.

...I am curious as to whether or not it'd even be possible to Dresdenize my home state of South Carolina, let alone any specific cities in it. :P

Basically sounds like a legion of Corpsetakers with the added failsafe of a D&D Lich's phylactery.

I like it. Especially the Eight Immortals bit. Although, I'm with earlier posters who recommended they not all be in one place. On top of that, maybe these guys have some beef with the real Dragons like Ferrovax?

And I will say this: Reading this made me think of Shiro's duel and Jet Li's Fearless, except it'd be body-jumping vampire Jet Li against a Samurai on a mission from Elvis. ;D

1) How far up does the knowledge go?  Has the Minister been briefed?  Has the Prime Minister been briefed?
Probably like "How far down does the knowledge go?" The White Council was directly involved in nuclear non-proliferation between the US and Russia, so it's probably not unreasonable to assume that at least a few mortal heads of state and heads of government know about them. We also know that the US has a special department of congress dedicated to collecting magic-related things. Word of Jim on both counts, but still. Chances are, and especially with the history of mutual defense policies the US and Canada have, Canada would be in roughly the same boat.

This is an excellent thread!  ;D

On one hand you've got Dresden ... no one knows about this stuff.

On the other hand you've got Fringe or X-Files ... the government knows and is covering it up.

Throw in a pinch of Delta Green and you've got a supercampaign!

Brilliant!
I am now picturing the inevitable wise-crack deathmatch between Harry and Mulder/Scully.

"It can't be real!"
"It is. See? Look at the trash can. Look at it. Loooook at iiiit...BAM!" [trash can vaporized.]
"...I would love to see you try rationalizing that, Scully. This is proof of-of everything!" [Twenty minute ramble about alien abductions and JFK.]
"...uh..."
"Imps did JFK. Sorry. Some guy with the Venators cover it up after the fact." [Cut to Cancer Man laughing madly with a flame thrower in the dark.]
"WHAT?"
"And anal probing? Fairy prank." [Cue Toot.] "Turns out there was this guy back in Utah who-"
"BUT WHAT ABOUT MY SISTER?!"
"...well...there're these things called Hobs..."

Five minutes later, they're all drinking at Mac's and Mulder is converting to new age pantheism while Scully has a nervous breakdown at her beer.

The End

...or is it?

just read another thread about possible spin off books http://www.jimbutcheronline.com/bb/index.php/topic,15416.msg727864.html#msg727864 in the initial post butcher mentions the "Special Collections Division of the Library of Congress.  (Do NOT screw with the Librarians.  Holy moly.  Just don't.)" this seem to solve our debate at least as far and Jim's version. As has been said in other threads your DF universe may differ.
...well, least now we know who confiscated the film from Fool Moon ;D

Incidentally, the US and (probably) Russian governments at the least know about the White Council. IIRC, Jim mentioned somewhere that the Council helped broker nuclear treaties between the two world superpowers.

Ye gods this all looks great :D  The balance, the chance to have wizards who vary in power and capability, all the other classes/types.  I can't wait!  The only issue is finding enough people in my frackin town to play ><
That's what press gangs and machetes are for, H. :)
