Yup, basically an item that gives those darned women what they deserve if you're a fucking idiot that is.

FATAL isn't a D20 system game, it just gutted D20 system of all of the worst parts.

/r/ Jimbo from the Simpsons, quoted as saying "That is SO GAY!"

I would be willing to team up with Jack Chick to take down FATAL, though I would probably end up stabbing him in the back when it was all over.

...That would actually make a pretty epic story. And maybe we could get some help from an army of extremely livid femenists. "LESBIANS! PREPARE FOR GLORY!"

>>766002
I can see that as the plot for a movie.

All right, I'll bite and continue to participate.

Anything can be a phobia really.

FATAL really reminds me of a religious text. 2000 years from now, people would be worshipping it as they did the Bible (which is pretty much the same to FATAL as what Warhammer Fantasy is to Warhammer 40k)

RPG net gave it a good review

In the FATAL review they quote this long section on punishments for rape, but I don't see it in my copy. What the hell?

>>766321
Er, this one specifically - http://atrocities.primaryerror.net/fatal.html

>Rape

>In an average community, an average of twenty rapes occur annually. In 80% of cases, rapes are committed by between two and fifteen characters.

>They force the female's door at night, do not disguise themselves, and either rape the victim in her home and in the presence of terrorized witnesses, or drag the victim through the streets into one of their houses, where they have their pleasure all night long. In 80% of cases, the neighbors do not intervene. Almost all rapes involve extreme brutality, though they never attempt to wound or kill her.

>The rapists come from all levels of society, but the majority are artisans and laborers. Less than 10% of rapes occur by thugs. In 50% of cases, human rapists are between 18 and 24 years old. The group is composed, on average, of 6 characters. Only 20% of the rapes are committed by 10 or more characters. Half the male youth participate at least once in gang rape. Sexual violence is an everyday dimension of community life. There tends to be less in smaller communities such as hamlets and more in larger communities such as cities.

>If identified, rapists are imprisoned for weeks, though no more than a month. If the victim withdraws the complaint, the rapist is freed immediately. Imprisonment for rape consists of flogging, unless the rapist is an outsider, in which case the rapist is banished. When freed from imprisonment, a rapist is not considered criminal nor considered to be bad.

>The social reaction to rape is rarely favorable to the victim. The human victims of gang rape are between the ages of 15 and 33. Child rape is rare. The rape of a child under the age of 14 or 15 is considered a serious crime. The victim loses her good name in almost all cases, and encounters difficulty in regaining her place in society and family. If the victim of rape is single, then fewer males desire her as a wife. If she is married, her husband may abandon her. Priests comprise 20% of the clientele at private brothels and public baths. Some priests are even members of nightly gang rapes. The victim of gang rape almost never accuses them of committing sodomy.

"Why dont the city watch do something?"

"They ARE the city watch."

>>766333
>>766336

Hmm... where is this exactly? In my copy, there's no mention of Rape under Justice (unless you count the fact a master can rape a slave freely but his wife/mistress can't).

On page 159, there's randomly, for no fucking reason, a list of recipes. This has nothing to do with the section whatsoever or the chapter as a whole. Page 160 is Chapter 7.

>>766105
wth /tg. wth.

So i'm guessing it's frowned apon on trying to stop rape in F.A.T.A.L. then?

>>766349

It's a fucking game mechanic. It's like saying "trying to stop your party from killing the lich-king is frowned upon" in D&D.

There have been several FATAL revisions released. Some were edited by the member of the team that still has enough humanity left to sob himself to sleep at night, and lack some of the most outrageously insane passages.

Reading FATAL is what going mad must feel like. You get a sense that there are rules that they are playing by, but they don't make any sense to you. Everything feels endlessly complex and terribly wrong, yet the book acts like it's all perfectly normal.

Also, there is hysterical laughter.

>>766349

>In an average community, an average of twenty rapes occur annually. In 80% of cases, rapes are committed by between two and fifteen characters.

That's 36-246 rapes per year per community. Man, I would not want to live in a hamlet right now.

>>766374

Well, I guess they have to do SOMEthing to pass the time in those little backwards villages when there aren't adventurers around to slay orcs and crap for them.

>Half the male youth participate at least once in gang rape.
>Large city 12,001-25,000

Assuming 50% of the population is female, that's ~3-6,000 rapists in the city.

>>766393

My god, they would need a minister of anal circumference.

>>766397

How does one elect such a minister?

>>766413
The one with the highest anal circumference potential, of course.

If there's more than one person with the same high circumference they probably compare penis length or have a urinating contest. Or a fist-off.

>>766422

Well, I bet elections draw an interesting voter demographic.

More rape math!
>In an average community, an average of twenty rapes occur annually. In 80% of cases, rapes are committed by between two and fifteen characters.
>Half the male youth participate at least once in gang rape.
>The group is composed, on average, of 6 characters.

So in an average community, you'll get 4 singular rapes and 16 gang rapes with an average of just over 7 people, for 120 rapes total.

If half the male youth participate at least once in gang rape, around 110-120 youth have participated. As time goes by we can assume that in a community, roughly half the adult male population will have engaged in gang rape, too.

That means that the average community contains 220-240 males, for a size of 440-480 total if we still go by ad hoc D&D "lol 50% wimmins" - so the average community size is a village of around 460 people, or 115 rapists with 230 women to rape - meaning up to half the woman population is raped.

That means the average village in FATAL is a village where half the population is affected somehow by rape. And oh yeah, if you're in a hamlet, watch out - you will be raped at least twice annually.


Where am I going with this? Well...

Let's open the Eberron Campaign Setting book and look at Aundair... Oh, look at that. Population two million.

One million women.
500,000 rapists.

>In 50% of cases, human rapists are between 18 and 24 years old.

Let's suppose that this is what they mean by "male youth", and that about.... oh... 20% of the population is that age? It's not unreasonable. 100,000 rapists, by the way.

Anyway, let's suppose they all get caught in the same ~6-year time period, and all the rapes are spread out equally. Since on average each rape has about 6 people, that's ~16,667 rapes total, ~2,778 per year, ~231 a month. Google tells me that 1 month = 4.34812141 weeks. That's ~53 rapes a week, 7.6 a day.

Going back to the average thing, it means that ~46 people participate in rape daily, ~318 a week.

>If identified, rapists are imprisoned for weeks, though no more than a month.

Weeks is a plural, and since this is FATAL where rape is A-OK!, let's go with the minimum - two weeks. That means that in any given week, about 636 people will be in jail for rape - if you assume that the rapes are spread equally and that everyone is jailed fairly quickly, another 159 rapists will go to prison that week. So during these six years, 759 people per week will be clogging the prison system.

Since the average community has only 230 males and 115 rapists, that means that every week a sizeable chunk of the town MUST be in jail for rape - nearly half in bad months.

So what kinds of people are in this chunk?

>The rapists come from all levels of society, but the majority are artisans and laborers

Rape has just crippled Aundair's economy.

Fucking FATAL.

>>766449
>>766451

And yes, I know that's pretty ad-hoc and half-assed. But this is FATAL, and if Hall couldn't bother to get his hand off his dick and sort this out properly I won't either.

I'm mildly astonished that you seem to be discussing FATAL as though you intended to run a game with it.

>>766461

More that he applied common sense to FATAL's rules to break a typical Eberron city, showing the game is pretty much unplayable and senseless. Given how hard it pretends to be completely SERIOUS BUSINESS it's pretty obvious they didn't even consider any of the shit they wrote down.

>>766461

do i detect an interested player?

I wonder what happened to Byron Hall and that Burnout dude (remember kids, if you have to attach a penname to a work it's not a very good one)? Wikipedia says

>Byron Hall (the author of F.A.T.A.L.) has not been responding to emails sent to his F.A.T.A.L. email account since February of 2006. This occurred after one of the assistant authors criticized the format of the skills list and jokingly referred to the game as Hall's midlife crisis. However, it is unlikely that the contents of that email were the cause of Hall’s disappearance. Also, the Yahoo group the authors used to discuss development was shut down in July of 2006. During creation the game was frequently updated, with the most recent update being given out only to assistant authors and people who purchased it online from the Fatal games website. The last update was released on January 1st of 2006.

>>766451

I loled. "FATAL destroys Ebberonian economy, more at 11".

>>766474

Perhaps he got out of his midlife crisis, realized how shameful his work was and what a loser he was, and cut all ties to THE GAME. Then he married, and formed a family.

Now, he's still a loser.

>>766478
Well, here's a good place to start...

>>766470
I'll play anything once. (Except Konata.)

Just for lols, direct from his "rebuttal" to that big Darren MacLennan/Jason Sartin review:

>>So, basically, FATAL is the date rape RPG.
>Another faulty conclusion drawn by Darren. Where is dating included?

I woke up to this thread.
Thank you /tg/.

Half of all men are rapists? Sounds like FATAL was written by BitingBeaver

>>766530

Yeah, if you increse 'half' to 'any man who has ever had sex with a woman'.

>>766525
Don't forget the original thread. >>765406

Thats it. I'm so gonna play this game.

Might as well be the only person here to man the fuck up.

>Rape has just crippled Aundair's economy.

>Fucking FATAL.

This is the quote of the night.

>>766556

Good enough for me.

Hey, why can't chicks rape in this game?

>>766576

It's FATAL. They're too busy being pinned to the wall by their husband's drinking buddies and pounded like a jackhammer, trying not to say anything in case she is arrested for giving her husband lip.

The really good Fatal review was removed from RPG.net because they linked tubgirl. IIRC the quote was something like "If Synibarr is the Timecube of RPGs, FATAL is tubgirl.com"

Thank god for atrocities.primaryerror.net.

Well damn, there goes my plans to use FATAL as way to accurately role play Ancient Greece

Is there anywhere you can still download FATAL?
