Your latest character is told the creative and driving force behind them is some neckbeard human from another world. How do they react?

>cool, can you tell him to make the elves less fucking nuts but also make them hotter? thanks
and then he tries to get them to buy him a drink
>An egotist
>*looks in mirror"
>"He's got good taste I'll give him that"
Probably the same way most people do when nutters come up to them randomly and try to explain their idiotic conspiracy theories.
This, there's no reason to believe that the person saying it is telling the truth so OP is a retard in addition to being a gay.
you can't just be a retard AND a gay at the same time, nobody can live like that for long
Oh sweet summer child.
>idiotic conspiracy theories
>the "idiotic conspiracy theory" is right
potery
It’s not, though. Even if you created a self-insert all-powerful creator in the setting, it would only be you in the sense that a picture of you is you. You don’t exist in that reality, you exist in this one.
As GM I state that this NPC is literally me the GM
what now asshole
Don’t get me wrong, as creator you have full power to make that kind of decree. But it’s a nonsensical decree within the world’s context.
Let’s put it this way - if we create an agent in that world that seeks the truth, how would they ever be able to logically reason that “you = NPCyou”? Especially when “you” doesn’t exist within that world?
> inb4 I don’t exist in this world
The GM actually exists as both simultaneously exterior to but as the totality of the game world. The game world exists inside the gm more correctly, with some modifications and reaction from the players. Sort of a holy trinity thing.
All npcs are representatives of the gm, in varying degrees and parts that can never be the entirety of it.
I understand that cosmological setup, but disagree with it because it assumes that the GM/player creates the world rather than discovers it. There’s there’s no evidence either way, and in fact any testing of the matter seems an impossibility, so it seems an imprudent assumption.
I'm clean-shaven.
>At least he made me hot.
Well if he wants to live he better be cool.
>"Oh, I know. I'm just not sure whether I should be grateful to him."
Last character got WAAAAY to smart for his own good, and put the pieces together. He even made quotes about "moving the plot along" or grumbled about "someone wanting things to go this way", but was just looked at weird by the other party members, so he eventually just kept quiet.
Depends on who is telling him, if anything less than a deity told him, he'd just ignore them
He is fascinated by the concept of this "true world" and begins trying to research ways to magically travel here.
He rightfully disbelieves it as I'm not a neckbeard.
She laughs and says “We know, we created him”.
>She laughs and says “We know, we created him”.
Isn't that dividing by zero?
Only if there’s an unbroken chain of causality preceding the rules of either reality. Which, if you consider a reality to be the ultimate precedent over all its constituents, doesn’t make much sense.
He's a Ranald Priest, so he'd just shrug it off and chuckle.
of recent PCs:
>Having been human in her previous incarnation, she shakes her head: "I didn't have a beard."
>"What is a human?" he asks, and doesn't like the answer.
>"Well, someone programmed me and I'm not from this planet, what of it?" wonders the droid.
>"Impossible. A nerd would lack the honor to portray me." notes the space barbarian.
>Having seen a shop selling the-party themed merchandise and having met someone from the real world, she hangs her head. "I knew it." she weeps. "If my life weren't going so well, I'd beat him up."
>Another elephant talk thread to shit up the board with out of spite.
Aw shush, this is fun
>If my life weren't going so well, I'd beat him up.
lmao, one of mine had exactly the same reaction
Yeah, so fun and popular the thread needs to be put on life support but I guess that is the boards fault for not knowing what a good thread is.
moron what the fuck is elephant talk and why is it bad, elephants are great
>Nehk B'iard
>The Great Stained One, The Home Brewer, The One Without Life, The Flame Warrior
>Devourer of Knowledge, he is a gambler by nature. He rolls a mythical set of dice forged from Buffalo bone, runes carved by light energy into their various faces by ancient machines powered by the blood of ancient beasts and the power of a dying star.
>He is a self-described wizard, untold relics of ancient feasts adorn his beard.
>His primary fuel is the siphoned dew from the misty mountains.
>He creates and destroys based on whim and mood. While he may create a valiant knight of just cause, he may just as quickly turn him into a goblin slave bitch. His mercy is like the ocean waves.
>From his station of battle, he gazes far and beyond across the ley lines into other universes. He gazes into this abyss and finds it all lacking, and though he may make copies in their image, though their primordial secrets may be redressed in his own temporary planes of existence, not all can be swept away by his whim.
>But you can be.
Interesting part of this question is that every single answer in this thread is correct
Take a sip of his flask.
"Huh, this explains while all the women have wide hips, flat chests, and big butts."
"Dude, can you tell him to make better choices?"
