If something is so great that it needs its own character sheet, it's undoubtably unbalancing and hilariously broken.

All I can think of seeing that smarmy fuck in his wheelchair is that he's about to get fucked up when someone grabs him and tips him over.

You know that they made it so the chairs can't be flipped over, can move through mud and gravel, aren't hard to move uphill, can navigate stairs.

You know, like legs, but better.

I don't even want to talk about it. That they're having to do it again shows that no one really went for it. Yet the problems are going to be exactly the same as before.

Just release a splat about adventurers going around in James Cameron's Avatar-style walkers already. That's clearly what you want to do even though you're hiding behind trying to look cripple-positive.

Also simple text for dyslexics is condescending as fuck.

>disabled force-users
what like Darth Vader?



>the name of the miniature line is actually "Dungeons and Diversity"

 

[EnemyStand]

Real question. How many people in wheelchairs actually want to play a disabled character? Because I can't help but notice most of the people for this shit have use of all their limbs.

Yeah he would be a disable force-user, a literal paraplegic.

If people are going to use wheelchairs in rpgs, at least make it interesting. Use it to fly, give it hidden missile compartments, make it a magical battery, attach blades to the wheel to slice through the legs of opponents. If you are trying to empower someone, make that empowerment fun.

I would, for once, be willing to play the cleric just to cast Regenerate on them, whether they like it or not.

"Get out of the gimp-chair and walk like the rest of us, dumbass, we're some of the richest people in this world, not destitute peasants. Act like it, and stop wasting party resources on enchanting that stupid thing. "

I'd rather fuck myself with a rake than play my disability and the only person I know who has mobility issues doesnt so I can't see it having much of a following.

For people who complain so much about the fetishization and objectification of women/minorities, they certainly love to fetishize disability.

Trying to get coherent arguments out of these people is like trying to draw blood from a stone.

Never been on a wheelchair but I know that when I broke my arm as a kid, and when I torn a ligament as an adult, all I wanted was to get full function of those limbs back. The wife spent almost a year on a wheelchair due to a horseriding accident and she definitely doesn't have any additional love for wheelchair-bound characters in media either.

Play them like Ravenor. Best cripple of all time.

When I was in a wheelchair the thought never crossed my mind.

Depends on who you ask, if you ask these people, everyone in a wheelchair 100% must face the disability in game, which is pretty ableist if you think about.
As for people I know who are disabled? They usually don't play someone with the same disability as themselves

Do people not realize the various flavors of Evil will not install wheelchair accessible entrances, especially if the band of heroes after them insist on using wheelchairs instead of Regenerating their gimp limbs? Anti-Magic Shell is a thing, and it can be blown up to castle size.

How bold of you the "writers" of that splat will allow anything to prevent the wheelchairs from being better than a fully functional pair of legs.

They can write what they want, and I'll write what I want. Bad guys don't give a shit about the crippled. I know because SJWs keep telling me it's so.

Rentals.

Rentals, really?

In a fantasy setting?

So besides the whole technological/magical sophistication required to make those Wondrous Items... we now have battlechair rental franchises? Or do you have to go back and hand back the chair when you're done with the adventure or you lose your deposit? What the fuck is this?

Drow are cool with cripples. D&D has reached female Space Marines levels of lore destroying wokeness.

I don't think that's an official product, so we're not quite there yet.

If/when Wizards decides to pick up that product and run with it (or, most likely, shamelessly steal it), then yes. D&D will have reached female Space Marines levels of lore-destroying wokeness.

Why would you have combat wheelchairs?
