*A Prince or Princess of the Queen of Brass must be a source of shameless fanservice and lewd jokes. They cannot be a serious discussion of the harm of needless shame, excessive modesty, or needlessly lying to yourself or others.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
Princess the Hopeful is a Fan-Made Chronicles of Darkness game... Basically, you're a MAgical Girl(or Magical Boy, Princess is the default term but anyone can be a Noble.)
Its themes are maintaining hope when it seems hopeless and bringing a Light to the Darkness.
It draws collectively not only on various Magical Girl series(Everything from Sally the Witch and Sailor Moon to Card Captors and Nonaha to Madoka and Sailor Nothing) but also various "girls Underground" stories(Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland The Wizard of Oz, Coraline) and even a little bit of Spider-Man(Teen/young adult hero with relatable problems is a vis his mundane life that bleeds into his social life.)
Most Princesses swear to a Queen(of King), who is a Princess who has achieved peak Princesses, essentially, and created a new power based on their ideals and can share it with others: By default, Princesses use the 'element' of Light, which is both literal light and the concept of hope, but the queens have their own elements in addition and a Princess who is part of the "Nation" of a Queen has an easier time learning their Queen's element.
There are eight in the core book: Five Raidnt Queens called the Queens of Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, Spades, and Swords. They respectively embody the ideals of naturism, intellect, duty, fun, and love and wield the classical elements and Three Twilight Queens who, many years ago, out of desperation comprised their own ideals and became their antithesis: Storms is an embodiment of pure hatred whose element is essentially pure destruction, Tears gave into despair and started using the Dark Arts to protect herself at the expense of everyone else, and Mirrors panicked at her responsibility and catches younger princesses and convinced them that they're the chosen one and whose power is essentially reflections and selfishness.
However, it is explicitly stated that there are other Queens besides these eight and there are several officially, or well, as official, as it gets in a Fangame, Kings, and Queens, made by fans of this fan line.
The Queen of Brass draws significantly on Kill La Kill, a pseudo-magical girl series best described as "Gurren Lagan but with clothes instead of robots and scissors instead of drills," which...
The outfits are skimpy and there's a lot of (non-explicit) nudity, but if you're watching it to be titillated you're gonna be disappointed.
It used the tendency to show skin as a metaphor for confidence, lack of shame or anxiety, and honesty.
Likewise, the Princesses of the Queen of Brass tend to emphasize being honest with yourself or others and not letting the judgment of others change who you are. They also have a tendency o have magical girl outfits that do not have more fabric than is necessary to completly cover their body(not counting armor or weapons) and a marked tendency to not be ashamed of showing skin(though, not impractically so--they don't run around naked or anything, and the Queen Proper is described as being either business casual or dressy casual.)
I'm sure you can understand how this requires a mature table to convey properly.I also answer to Bookmark and Shadow Claw.

* may not charge at a dragon with nothing but a sword and courage
** If after fighting me for a while the dragon begins flying away from me, may not yell "COME BACK HERE YOU COWARD!!" and immediately begin pursuing

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
For example, My bit on playing a Princess of Brass is becuase I'd like to play a Princess of Brass in a Princess the Hopeful game but there are obviously issues with it that means it requires a mature table.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
Look I'm just talking about MH Worlds is played: You go find a big beastie often dragon-like in nature thats causing trouble that can kill you in like two or three solid hits, and then you either prep-time batman it if your a pro or like everyone else you just go up to it and hit with your oversized weapon to challenge it to face you fair and square, human to beast against all logic and reason. Then you whack it with your weapon for eons until it decides its scarred of the small human and runs away, then against all logic and reason you pursue after it to repeat that again until it finally escapes back to its nest to try and sleep and recover, then you show up there going "sup bitch". then proceed to kill it in like, its third phase.
* may not do all the above while talking in a bad australian accent and going "croikey".
* I'll probably never get to play my succubus/half succubus dhampir/vampire succubus concept
** If I do, it'll probably be the day that Rater gets to play his Princess of Brass concept

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
So, if things based on actual experience is allowed...
*If I'm letting the players take flaws, I should remember what they do.
Spoiler: ContextWe're playing Red Hand of Doom in D&D 3.5e on the forums, and the DM forgot about some of the flaws the other guys took. So the Warblade with the Wild flaw got tagged by a Tanglefoot Bag and was too busy panicking for the last two rounds to actually fight while the Swordsage with the Murky-Eyed flaw got blinded.
*No, even if the party is going with a travelling circus theme, I can't keep referencing the "You are not a clown. You are the entire circus." meme.
**Or memes in general.
Spoiler: ContextI, er. That's actually me, lol. I've been memeing about our fails and the party theme in general.
For example, I made this after I pointed out that the Swordsage had Murky-Eyed and the DM realized that after checking the character sheet.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
I don't actually have a concept, I just like the idea of a muscular young woman who likes showing off her fit body in perfectly non-sexual was beating the crap out of monsters or big brutish jerks. It appeals to my sense of aesthetics.
It's the same reason I want to do a Red Sonia inspired Monk in a 5e game.Last edited by Rater202; 2021-01-09 at 10:36 PM.

Re: Things I May No Longer Do While Playing XII: A Thousand-Yard Stare is not Permiss
* Shapeshifting does not eliminate the need for trousers.
* If my character is female trousers are insufficient.
** The solution to this is ever more extravagant legwear.
SpoilerWhile not from an actual game, I've thrown a few characters passed GMs with different nudity taboos, the most common being women from societies without the barechestedness double standard. Stone GMs allow it, to others trousers/a skirt do not qualify as a full outfit. And yes, occasionally I've gone the other way and had people be stricter than the norm.
And one for a GM I had.
* Can't reveal that Anonymouswizard's character is trans before the game begins.
** Especially when we agreed to keep it secret from the other players (I wanted the shocking reveal when my family finally tracked me down).Last edited by Anonymouswizard; 2021-01-10 at 05:16 AM.
