>>93945885Attempt at Normality (Singularity, The Hopeman, Werewolf kinda, mentions Fractal.)https://rentry.org/8vfbynf4Here it is. I honestly was sure I already posted it. I finished it very late and just passed out after and decided to take a break, when I came back the whole thread was flooded in KTH discussion that I had no hope of following. It took me a while to see I did not post this, or even put it on rentry. I have been working on something else already as well.

>>93946374>"Hello, fellow human."Oh my god, Singularity is such a cinnamon bun. He has no true idea of things, does he?I'm already imagining Fractal trying to invite him to do some people watching.
>>93946832Thanks. He has some common sense and access to the internet, but struggles in applying it. He does his best but he is supposed to be easy to spot. This little excursion is the setup to explain he is starting to like observing people, so people watching with Fractal is a definite possibility, it also sets up his future stalker arc where he just looks at different capes to "study how to be human" and "what is a true hero". I started work on some small interactions.I also forgot the image, even if it's not that important. This is what the "normal" vessel is supposed to look like, for now.
>>93946624I'm happy you think I would have energy for that, anon. I'm just too tired to care anymore

>>93947848I didn't want to drag it on any longer, so while the techniques are still unfinished, I tried to complete the other parts, so I thought I'd post it. I'll try to fill in the gaps soon.And I'm looking for Anons to get life encounters with. I'm open to all ideas. Some options give rewards that wouldn't really fit, like Silly Mischief, but I think I could just make an Unusual Encounter version of them to deal with that and reflect the autism on his side. Some others, like Taoist Sibling, might be difficult to fit given his backstory, but probably not impossible. The events would have happened while he was out on a mission for his tribe, on his way to the Library, or early on already in the Open Sect.
>>93947853Ageratum has Life Encounters with no one else yet. Wicked Scam Artist and Scheming Comrades are both easy to fit in but Romantic Rival would be the funniest.
>>93947916Wicked Scam Artist is probably the only one I could take straight up with both fluff and reward that wouldn't require me to make it some Unusual Encounter autismo edition, but if you have ideas for others, I wouldn't be against it.For Scheming, the issue is mostly the reward being something that would be like a major character goal for Batudai rather than a background achievement. Otherwise the fluff could probably be easily explained. I think Batudai being hired or manipulated into helping, or on the contrary, being on the side that lost, could work as his Unusual Encounter version of it.As for the Romantic Rival, the reward is also something he shouldn't have yet, but here I also don't have much of an idea how to fix it in for him. He's too socially stunted to really have experience in shipping. At most I'd see him being like a third wheel to this kind of a situation, where he accidentally messed it up with his loneliness aura. Or maybe like Ageratum was into a girl who was into Batudai, but then she got close to him, and it was when his aura was active and she lost interest before he even realized what was going on. It doesn't seem perfect, but that's all I got for it. But hey, if you find it funny, maybe you have a more solid idea. I'd be open to discussing it.
>>93948063If Wicked Scam Artist works fluff and mechanic wise, then we should do that. I think I would prefer to do only 1 Life Encounter "per anon" I guess. I'll let other anons chime in.
>>93948111Just in case, I didn't want to propose that it's one anon for multiple encounters, only in one case that multiple anons for one encounter could also work. I just presented his I could see each option working.Unfortunately a lot of rewards aren't really fitting for a character with poor social skills, so I fully expect having to tweak some bits. As such, I wouldn't worry about that to much.And sure, Wicked Scam Artist works. I have to go now, so we can discuss the details done other time, but I suspect Ageratum could scam Batudai without too much trouble.
>>93947848>Tao: location (a place to belong)I'm about to ruin this man's whole career. I will befriend him and show him he belongs not at a place, but amongst a people
>>93948262Everyone always says that home is where the heart is but when I explore the Tao by making a grand palace out of human hearts I'm a "demon" and a "terror".
>>93944130>Which character do you think has cool or fitting techniques. The ones that first come to mind are Xu, Dong, Saya, and Lionbro. Xu's Qi, soul, footwork, and attack techniques I think are spot on for his null root and really demonstrate how unified and almost elegant a single theme can be. Dong as well has a very nicely written and comprehensive array of themed skills and best of all it's not a typical or stable Tao. I really like that. Sayas is simple and kinda barebones but I think it serves as an example of how you can still convey a cool theme without pages of detail. Lionbros like dongs is unique, and like Xu's is a great amount of detail where everything makes sense both in isolation but you can see how it comes together as a whole.>If your character was stuck in a room for 24 hours with another PC which PC would you want it to be? Which would you least want it to be?For comedic reasons I think Ageratum or Zhou Yun. But I think Tain would get along best with Taizhou, Dong, or one of the living swords, probably Zhimin (due to emphasis on righteousness).>Your character is in the infirmary, how'd they get there?Naturally given free time, or perhaps as extra credit if the sect does that sort of thing he helps out using his medical arts. >>93944889I'm glad it helped
>>93948417What do you think of Yana's techniques?
>>93948451Creepy! But cool. Very thematic, I feel bad now for not having her jump to mind when I read the prompt. I like that you have her Grudge Eater as self developed. That's a great plot hook
>>93945973Trying to write my relationship chart. Can anons please rate your characters in terms of:>Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, Sincerity, Loyalty, Filial Piety, Honesty, and Self Discipline. If you really want to help a fellow Taoist out, you view on mortals would also be appreciated.
>>93948530Of 1 to 5:>Yana:>Benevolence: 3"To repay one's kindness is natural. One hand washes the blood off the other. Isn't it the adage?">Righteousness:>1She isn't sure about what is right or wrong yet. She sees a ruthless way of life as righteous as the same thing as a lawful hard hard-working one. Her upbringing was not that good because of her tribe.>Properiety?>4She is very formal and educated, speaking old-fashioned because she does not know any better. Raised as a handmaiden, she at least excels at being right and proper where it matters.>Wisdom>1Dumb as a rock, and not nearly as wise. She lived a simple life devoid of material wants and hardship is too ingrained in her. She has yet to develop "wisdom".>Sincerity>5She was the lowest one could be in her tribe, so lying and being deceptive were not traits one should develop if one wanted to live, since the truth always comes out. She won't lie or deceive, not out of kindness but because she literally can't be dishonest.>Loyalty>1 or 5It all depends if you want to believe she killed the last member of the main family, or if she stuck to their side until the end.>Filial PietySame as above.>HonestySame as Sincerity.>Self Discipline:>5She may not be bright, or talented, but she has great discipline, or she couldn't live the life she had before her clan all kicked the bucket.>>93948478Thanks bro.
>>93948530I know that feel. Here's Ageratum.>BenevolenceHe says he would be a kind and fair ruler! He'd be terrible. He'd give a kid on the street a piece of bread if people were watching, but wouldn't if no one was. If he could, the bread being poisoned with a charm that makes people like him would be something he'd do.>RighteousnessHe'll turn a blind eye to anything if the benefit outweighs the cost.>ProprietyHe's radical.>WisdomHe isn't wise like someone with True Wisdom would be but he can scheme and surprisingly he can teach.>SincerityNot at all sincere.>LoyaltyActually, he is quite loyal. Simply because he's a big believer in the fact that loyalty exists for a reason; very good for business. Not to say he WOULDN'T betray under circumstances that favor him, but who knows? If he actually befriends people, maybe he'd see the light of friendship...?>Filial Pietylollmao>HonestySeems a bit like sincerity again so idk.>Self DisciplineHe doesn't have any vices like alcohol or drugs but if he did he'd be a mess.>MortalsDummies to get scammed. If they were smart, they'd cultivate. He has Mortal Savant and doesn't realize it's rare so he just assumes everyone else is stupid and everyone could be a genius Profession master if they put in the effort.
>>93948530>Benevolence: 5"A single thread can make the grand design; a mighty mountain can only be built from the rocks at the base. One act of love, no matter how small, shall cascade into a flower that'll blossom into a life well spent.">Righteousness: 4 "Must the world be ruled by cruel and the sick? Tyrants of a bygone age, ignorant to the cries of the sick and the foolish, wasting their eternity to fade into vanity? No! A hand must be extended to the downtrodden - good, evil, correct, misguided, all of them! Let them understand, let them show the golden path of Tao they tread, and you'll see the new dawn arise.">Properiety: 3Rèn understands the morals of today well, and pays little lip service to them. Old institutions are to be torn down, for no true Taoist shall be held by shackles passed onto them by Heaven. The unending cruelty will be tempered, the unbroken laws will pass on, and only unbroken will shall carry on to rule their reality as they see fit. >Wisdom: 6"I know nothing, and yet, everything.">Sincerity: 4Rèn's not afraid to speak out about his dangerous beliefs to those who despise him, but he's not above underhanded methods if his opponent is similarly deceitful. >Loyalty: 3Earthly attachments must be discarded, but those who can earn his trust will gain a great friend who will come for them through thick or thin, but he's far from a blind follower. He'll question the authority, the people, all of it. >Filial Piety: 2 He came from the womb of a weary woman who passed in ungrateful labour, and he's grateful for her sacrifice. The image of his parents burning down will be etched on his mind forever, and he won't try to recall them.>Honesty: 5Pretty straightforward.>Self-Discipline: 5"Earthly attachments weigh down the spirit and should be tossed aside. Give me only a single loaf of bread and a waterskin of water, and they shall fill me for the journey ahead. A living, talking sword is the peak of my luxury."
>>93948530>Yue>Benevolence: 4/5Would rather save a good person than punish a bad one, and likes doing good deeds. Doesn't need any particular reward either, and might even save her enemies if they aren't complete scum.>Righteousness: 3/5Fairly righteous. She won't ignore injustices that show up before her, however she won't spend her life hunting down injustice either. Would rather spend her time helping those with the will to stand up for themselves do so than chase down bad guys.>Propriety: 2/5She's fully capable of being tactful, well mannered, etc. Most of the time she chooses not to be. She still tries to be lady-like however, so she could be worse.>Wisdom: 5/5She's certainly seen ups and downs and come out better for it.>Sincerity: 4/5She likes to talk nonsense and keep little secrets, but she doesn't pretend to be something she isn't either.>Loyalty: 4/5Won't betray someone unless they betray her first.>Filial Piety: 4/5Cares quite a bit about her past life's parents and the Abbot from her Buddhist temple, but doesn't think she owes her current biological parents anything.>Honesty: 3/5Her honestly directly scales with how serious the topic is. Will start speaking nonsense just to be silly and will sometimes keep secrets just for the sake of having a secret. Rarely outright lies however.>Self Discipline: 5/5She's perfectly capable of controlling herself. The only question is if she wants to. She's plenty hard working when it comes to her cultivation for example.>view on mortalsLikes them and wishes them well, but feels distant from them. When she finds mortals suffering some kind of hardship, she's more likely to give them a way to control their own fate than to save them herself, perhaps giving them a low level cultivation technique or something.
>>93948530>Benevolence, 3/5Shizi'll help out if he feels like his skillset is needed and he can sense it, but won't actively seek to help others.>Righteousness, 2/5Shizi's perspective aligns more so with "Survival of The Fittest" rather than typical morality, but if someone is actively fucking over the natural order he'll get pissed.>Wisdom, 4/5Due to living as a nomad in the wilds for so long, Shizi's picked up a lot of inherent knowledge on how the natural world works.>Sincerity,5/5Shizi would never tell a lie or try to decieve someone, even if its to his own detriment.>Loyalty, 5/5When he does gain true allies/friends, he'll lay down his life to protect them without hesitation>Honesty,5/5Again, Shizi would never lie.>Self Discipline,3/5If Shizi is working towards something, nothing short of being knocked unconscious is gonna stop him. However, he can get swept away in his emotions and batttle lust pretty easily.
>>93949055Woops, forgot >Filial Piety, 2/5Shizi shows thanks to his ancestor which gave him his body and does mourn his parents, but mostly attributes his achievements to himself and himself alone. Ironically, this is just the way that The Nemean Lion would want his reincarnation to be.
>>93949055Oh come on!>Propriety,2/5Shizi lives as naturally as he likes, and while he does groom himself he's still somehwat beholden to his instincts
>>93948530Hongxing,1-5 scale.>Benevolence 2Helping others is not it's own reward. Get some bribes, or at least some flattery. Will help her wielders out, but that's more because they're included in her sense of self-interest. Stretching that is how you get her to do stuff for you. >Righteousness 1kek>Propriety 1She ATE those sorts of people, or kidnapped them for administration purposes. Won't bother except at gunpoint (fistpoint?)>Wisdom 1Wrong sort of dragon, which is where the trouble started. Her behavior is closer to instinct mixed with experience, which serves her well, but in a broader sense, she's critically lacking.>Sincerity 5There's no gap between her thoughts and actions, for better or (mostly) worse.>Loyalty ???Swings erratically, depending on circumstances and the individuals involved. Generally more loyal than not, but it doesn't always manifest in a helpful way.>Filial Piety 4Only to swords and other treasures. Doesn't have a family otherwise. Had some kids in a previous life, but dragons aren't known for family relationships.>Honesty 5It's not that she can't lie, it's just that she never feels the need to. See: sincerity.>Self-Discipline 0Discipline is denying the self in pursuit of becoming something above yourself. If you're already the pinnacle, there's no need for discipline!Or something like that, anyway.>Mortals? She doesn't even bother to differentiate between mortals and cultivators, except when considering power levels. There's a lot more to value within a treasure than just it's strength, so why value strength alone?Who's your build, by the way?
>>93948530Zheng Yao>Benevolence: 5He has committed himself to spreading kindness, mercy and compassion as a central tenet of his Tao.>Righteousness: 3He believes the state of the world is wrong, and has dedicated his life to restoring it to a state of harmony. However, he still harbours some self-doubts due to the wrongs of his past life.>Propriety: 5He will treat everyone he meets with great respect, whether they be the highest noble or the lowliest slave.>Wisdom: 5He's has that kind of wisdom that you can only achieve after having lived a life full of regrets.>Sincerity, Honesty & Loyalty: 5To lie, is to betray oneself as much as it is another.>Filial Piety: 4Raised in the strict tenets of an Orthodox Sect, the respect one pays their masters is ingrained deep.>Self Disciple: 5Practically a requirement to walk the road of a Saint.
>>93942485Shizi is cool, so no issues here with him and Alkaios being rivals. Though I think their rivalry would be more on the friendly side because they have similar temperaments and no glaring ideological differences.
>>93949163>Who's your build, by the way?Xu's 『 』has nothing on the Taibros ABSOLUTE lack of being.
>>93949259neato
>>93948530>Xū >Benevolence 4.5/5very kind at heart even if his actions outwardly seem scummy and lowly>Righteousness 4.5/5firmly believes that we are what we do, and he wants to be a good guy>Propriety 1/5xū is impertinent and had no manners, and barely regards those above him as such through his attitude>Wisdom 3.5/5very odd wisdom, seems to be average in most regards, with some hints at some pretty high enlightenment regarding specific topics or at specific times every now and then >Sincerity 5/5always genuine and true to himself>Loyalty 4.5/5very loyal, believes everyone should have someone they can trust, and so he tries to be that someone for others>Filial Piety 6/5loves his master with all his heartowes her a lot>Honesty ?/5openly admits to scheme and fight cowardly while facing others head on as wellall of his words and actions seem genuine and truthful while also being deceitful>Self Discipline 4/5never had anything so he can be distracted by lowly things like expensive mortal food and the likebut he can very easily set those desires aside>Mortalsthere's a lot to them, just as there's a lot to cultivators or really anything elsethey exist just like everything else, but since he grew up among them he tends to sympathize with them
>>93948530Here is Zhou Yun>Benevolence: 2/5He isn't a kind person, but neither is he cruel. He is largely disinterested in others unless they are someone he can test his blade against.>Righteousness: 1/5Righteousness isn't a factor in his decisions. The strong dominate the weak, that is the way of things.>Propriety: 1/5He isn't exactly "well suited" to society. >Wisdom: 3/5He isn't smart by any standard as he was raised as a peasant caravan guard but he is an eager learner and seeks lessons in everything.>Sincerity: 5/5Lying isn't beneficial to the Sword. He has no reason to hide his thoughts. >Loyalty: 4/5The path he walks is a lonely one but he has a deep sense of loyalty to those who earn it and is sure to repay kindness and favor threefold.>Finial Piety: 5/5He deeply adores his parents and still writes them letters. In tribute to them he will often be "nicer" to elders than he would those of his generation or youngsters. That is to say he might offer them a second chance to step down before he draws his blade.>Honesty: 3/5 He doesn't so much as lie as is terribly arrogant which can at times lead him view things in a distorted fashion.>Self Discipline: 2/5Before drawing his blade he will offer most foes a chance to withdraw (unless he thinks they are a worthy challenger). Though once his blade is drawn he seeks complete victory. As a battle fanatic it doesn't take much to rile him up and he is quick to challenge and accept others offers.
It's kinda funny how Yana anon just randomly picked a rating out of 5 and then Yue anon refined it to ?/5 and then everyone started using that variation.
>>93949538>>93948530Forgot to include>View on MortalsHe is far far kinder to mortals than he is those of the martial world. To his mind he has more in common with them than he does cultivators. Where he holds some distain on cultivators for how easily they manipulate magical forces, he has pity towards the fate of mortals. This kindness doesn't extend far, but it is undeniable that he has a soft spot for them and since reaching the 4th grade cannot even view them as a threat.
>>939495770 to 10 is a bullshit rating system anyways
>>93949822Yep, we use 0/100 in this household.
>>93949854Yet we're clearly using 5.
>>93950033You're not in my house.
>>93950056Then why the fuck does it matter if people use 0/100 in your household
>>93948530>Wanroe>Benevolence4, her greatest virtue is her generosity, in theory>Rightousness1, she has no care for the creed of heaven or its messengers>Properiety5, she is very used to acting the part of the refined lady when she has to speak to foreigners who are not blind drunk or in a trance from her drugs.>Widsom4, but used toward non-scholarly ends that some of her lifespan would consider a waste.>Sincerity1, anyone who can see through her facade will be able to feel the unfliching evil beneath the surface>Loyalty1, Same reasoning as above>Filial Piety2, she holds the wishes of her long past mother with her, even as her own offspring are allowed to slaughter themselves by the rules of her sect.>Honesty1, She earned the title of Demon Queen for a reason.>Self Discipline1, and in her ideal world she would have all freed from the grasp of oppressive moralizing.I've been thinking of having Wanroe show up to try and buy the whole open sect through some abstract method just to get her hands on fresh talent.>>93948905Maybe Yue's past ties in with Wanroe's rise to power? If not its fine. I just want a good reason to terrorize everyone.
>>93950073Because anons need to know my personal life because I'm the coolest?
>>93950099
>>93950094>I just want a good reason to terrorize everyone.Characters that have Exposed encounter are a good reason to leave the comfort of her empire, since she would want to harvest them for their encounters then she can take issue with anyone with ruthless foes, since she would be drawn to them.
Part of me wants to throw out all my techniques and start again, but then I would want to refocus the Tao as well... which would almost be like restarting the character entirely.
>>93950442That's pretty normal for this fucking CYOA.
>>93950454 I am being torn apart by this indecision
>>93950464Hesitation is Death
>>93948530>Zhimin>BenevolenceHasn't committed to working in soup kitchens and donating half of her paycheck or whatever, but if she sees someone in trouble, she'll help them out even if she's reluctant to get involved and tries to be kind.>RighteousnessRelatively strong morals, but she doesn't consider herself any kind of hero who's going to stamp out injustice. Won't think twice about dealing with someone/something she considers wicked.>ProprietyGenerally well-spoken and well-mannered despite her love of wine, but doesn't hesitate to do away with niceties to cut straight to the point.>WisdomExperienced and given to scholarly thought.>SincerityDeceit isn't much in her nature. There's no reason to present herself as anything other than what she is or hide her intentions. >LoyaltyShe's not easily swayed once she decides to associate wit someone unless that person was deceptive about their true character in a way that matters to her or their character changes. She serve a master ardently, but she won't be a slave.>Filial PietySaw her old master as something of a father and deeply respected him, but that was the past and she doesn't have anyone she sees like that now. >HonestlyNot above telling lies of omission or might say something for the sake of some minor mischief if the mood strikes her, but she isn't a habitual liar. Of course, she'd also lie to protect someone dear to her.>Self-DisciplineShe's more than capable of staying the course without giving into distractions, but she's already walked that path. That isn't to say she's simply living for mortal pleasures, however. She just wants is to experience the things she never gave thought to in her previous life and isn't concerned with becoming the next sovereign or whatnot. If she does set her mind to something then she won't be easily shaken from it.>MortalsShe doesn't value them any less and even enjoys their company. In theory, she'd accept one as a master if she too enough of a liking.
>>93948530>Benevolence 4/5Alkaios is quite generous and well-meaning, and a desire to help others does influences his personal goals. But he views benevolence as more a duty with prerequisites, believing the development of personal strength is what will allow him to do genuine good in the future. For this reason, he is probably not as actively concerned with day-to-day acts of benevolence as he could be, even if he does try to help out when he can. His own goals and the future good he could do take priority. Also, he gets more enjoyment from punishing evil than he maybe should, though this applies mostly to the most vile sorts.>Righteousness 5/5This is probably more fitting. He has a personal code he follows by which he values traits like benevolence, honor, loyalty, martial strength, one's ability to hold their drink, etc as he defines them. To others, the relative weight he assigns these virtues may not always seem appropriate, especially in these eastern lands.>Propriety 2/5Maybe more of a 3 in his own land. He had certain values and etiquette instilled in him from a young age. He kept some and rejected those he didn't care for. In this land, he has even less reason to value accepted standards of behavior, and there are plenty that are important here which he may lack due to his different upbringing.>Wisdom 3/5He has held responsibility over the lives of others since he was a boy and experienced quite a lot in his life already. But he's still a young man: brash, impatient, idealistic, reckless. To some, it may seem that this foreigner lacks basic wisdom, whereas others may find that his unique perspective helps them expand their own. Likewise, he may feel the same about them. >Sincerity 5/5To Alkaios, honesty and integrity are as much personal benefits as they are benefits to others. Living a life full of deceit or fear of one's true self will always limit potential.
>>93950676>Loyalty 4/5He does not believe a friendship is much a friendship at all if both people wouldn't die for each other. That said, he was raised to believe that the world is his to take. Even his very essence works to force fealty from others. This can make it difficult for him to form peer relationships, since, based on a person's inclination, they may fall into serving/looking up to him, resenting/opposing him, trying to gain his favor, trying to shape who he will become, etc. He has his own view of the loyalty a leader must have towards his subjects, but it's rare that these sorts of power dynamics do not manifest upon even the first meeting with someone. >Filial Piety 3/5He has tremendous respect for his parents, but his are very easy to respect. He assumes a general wisdom from older people and tends to assume people in past ages were made of stronger stuff than those in the current one, but he otherwise has no unique respect for the elderly. He'll criticize them without hesitation, especially if he sees no achievements from them worth respecting. He also seeks success outside of what was set up by his parents, but whether this shows greater or lesser respect towards them is probably up to interpretation.>Honesty 4/5As said before, he views honesty towards one's self as a critical virtue. That said, there may be times where it's better to lie or downplay certain things, such as ignoring pain and discomfort in order to keep up the morale of his men. >Self Discipline 4/5A 5 when it comes to things he believes contribute to his goals or desires. He can be extremely impatient otherwise. He also enjoys vices like alcohol and women, though he doesn't really consider these in need of controlling.>MortalsHis father is a mortal who accomplished the seemingly impossible time and time again. Whether divine or not, he doesn't believe one's power grants more inherent worth, just a different role and greater responsibility towards those weaker than oneself.
>>93946374Just finished, nice stuff. He is, in fact, built different.>The girl also had a strange reaction, she acted like her dogsBitch?>I can assure you I am completely unremarkable.I'll take your word for it, living black hole crystal thing.
>>93948262The people are the major factor of his place to belong, yes.>>93948530>Batudai>Benevolence2/5, by nature, it would have been higher, maybe even 4/5, but as part of his training, he was forced to close off his heart>Righteousness2/5, similar to above, there is no righteousness in being a hired killer, but at least he still recognizes it>Propriety2/5, he tries, but often falls short, either due to his own awkwardness, or due to the fact he was raised among the barbarians (if we went by what was expected of him as part of his tribe, then 4/5)>Wisdom2/5, while he's inexperienced, and held back by his past, the direction he seeks, shows at least some glimpses of it.>Sincerity2/5, another virtue that had been trained out of him>Loyalty4/5, even when disrespected and belittled, he never even thought about betraying his tribe, and dutifully completed his tasks, not matter his opinion on them, but it did lead to him looking for his place to belong outside of it>Filial Piety4/5, not much of a difference in his case from Loyalty>Honesty2/5, same as sincerity, lying and deception are part of an assassin's trade, but he doesn't particularly enjoy it, and avoids it outside of work; ideally, he wouldn't have to do it>Self Discipline5/5 (or maybe even 6/5 with the soul cultivation technique that wasn't fully written down yet), finally a virtue that truly benefitted from his training; his body would give up, before his spirit, and given his talents, that's not easy>MortalsNot that different from cultivators, but usually lacking direction, and in terms of danger, can be pretty much disregarded. Some of them do embody his ideal, but he doesn't believe he could take the same path as them to get there.

>>93951354cool
>>93950094>Maybe Yue's past ties in with Wanroe's rise to power? If not its fine. I just want a good reason to terrorize everyone.Sounds good to me. I actually had Wanroe in mind when I made Yue's backstory and was just waiting for a chance to discuss it. My idea was that Wanroe would have been the niece that rebelled and started her own dynasty, replacing an orderly and virtuous empire with a messy and debaucherous one. I could see her being something like the daughter of an evil concubine that wormed her way into the imperial family through dishonest means, leaving Wanroe originally in a sort of awkward 'do we keep this girl or throw her out' situation where everyone other than her mother tried to pretend she didn't exist.Since Yue doesn't have exposed encounter, their conflict would probably start with Yue's techniques. Perhaps Wanroe would think that some kid found her aunt's legacy and as a result she sends some soldiers to rob and/or capture said kid so she can figure out what exactly her aunt left behind. Maybe she couldn't find a treasure vault belonging to the main empire's royal family and hopes it's location was left behind, or maybe she kept her aunt's imperial seal and wanted to know how to absorb it for a power up, etc... Or maybe she thinks that Yue is a surviving descendant of the main imperial family and wants to nip a potential future enemy in the bud.She'd probably figure out what's actually up if she met Yue in person however. Either way, it's a good excuse for Wanroe to cause trouble.Or at least that's all the ideas I was waiting for a good chance to ambush you with. I'm naturally open to an ideas you've got in mind. Also, on that note, wanna share a life encounter slot to represent the shared history? I was thinking Sudden Betrayal, but it could also be something like brief apprenticeship (maybe as her aunt, Yue taught Wanroe for a bit).
>>93904512Shi Ren has crazy high talent in all areas, but only cultivates Qi since that's his only cultivation technique. So his realm is 4/0/0, right? Is that on purpose?
>>93951825lollmaoread over the cyoa again
>>93951825It would be 4+/3/3He still has divine comprehension in the other fields gaining +2 to them.
>>93951825I thought 0 was for cripples, and otherwise without the cultivation technique you were just at the generation default, so in this case 4/1/1/1, but I don't really see that rule for talents right now, so I think he might be 4/3/3. While I was at it, I ran a quick audit on him, and unless I screwed something up, it seems to me like he has 10 points unused and should have one more free footwork technique since he gets one from style and one from roots.>>93951875He has Tao comprehension, and the comprehension bonuses specifically require having cultivation techniques.
>>93951950I said comprehension but I meant cultivation talent, hence the +2 to soul and body raising them to 3.
>>93951950>and otherwise without the cultivation technique you were just at the generation defaultlollmao
>>93951979insightful
>>93951825>>93951950>>939518750 just means no investment. Cripples can't invest but neither can people without a cultivation technique... (Cripples would however be worse off than your average 0, and the gap would be more noticeable in higher realms). Or that was how it was supposed to work. I appear to have fucked up and not actually said that anywhere in the CYOA that I can find... so... uh... I guess death of the author is in effect, and Shi Ren's good to go?For context, a cultivation technique is how you physically go from Grade 0 to Grade 1 to Grade 2, etc. Talent is just how good you are at it. It's not supposed to inherently have the ability to level you up... Not that this especially matters since CYOA > word of the author. I just like explaining how the genre tends to work.Sovereign Successor, Mysterious Mentor and World Seed being bad is whatever, but this definitely needs to get patched at some point when this run is over...
>>93952097>0 just means no investment. Cripples can't invest but neither can people without a cultivation technique... (Cripples would however be worse off than your average 0, and the gap would be more noticeable in higher realms). Or that was how it was supposed to work.Silly author-chan the cyoa says the default for a disciple is 1 and then later confirms this by saying cripples are 0. Because I like you, I will forgive you this time.In return you should give your thoughts on the techniques the players have come up with.
>>93952097You heard it here, lads. If you do not get the cultivation for something, you might as well cripple it. What difference does 0 vs 0- make, shit's unusable anyway? Treat yourself to some Mortal Savant or extra points.
>>93945973shizi yunyun and xu with different hairstyles
>>93952097>Or that was how it was supposed to workWhy would you ever design it so poorly? I hope for your sake this is an imposter.
>>93952134This is marvelous.
>>93952097>Talent is just how good you are at it. It's not supposed to inherently have the ability to level you upIt literally says it increases your realmWhat else could that mean?How did this never come up in the last run? I'm calling bullshit, I don't believe you're Sabertard. No one could be that stupid.
>>93952134>Xū's eyes are censoredKek.I'd like to imagine these are their reactions after having their hair forcefully (at least in Yunyun's case) styled.
>>93952159The censor bar made me think that Xū was the one who did the other's hairs and Yunyun fucking killed him for it. It makes it look like Xu's is the pic that would be used in the news talking about his death
>>93945973Is this it? The fabled MP with no writefags that anons complained we don't do anymore.
>>93952177Not until I break the writefaggless streak
>>93952174He truly courted death. RIP my precious voidboi.
>>93952097If I wanted to enhance my body (ie strength and durability) with Qi because I am a Qi cultivator, which best reflects that in terms of techniques.>option A: a body cultivation technique>option B: a Qi supporting technique>option C: other
>>93952200All of the above, probably better to go for the qi supporting technique unless you put equal investment into your body cultivation.
>>93952115>>93952130For the record, the thing with people without techniques being 4/1/1 instead of 4/0/0 is lore inaccurate but an intended function of the CYOA. It's a way to keep things simple and have it be close-ish to how I intended. Kinda like when you take a really complex math equation and replace it a very simple one that produces answers in the same ballpark.Basically the three systems aren't entirely distinct. Even if they have no soul or body talent and never touch soul or body techniques, a Qi cultivator is going to have a stronger soul and body than a mortal. It's just less than actual actual soul/body cultivators. Trying to incorporate that into the CYOA would be annoying and needlessly complex, so you get the default realm thing as a loose way to represent it.That's more or less what I was referring to when I said a cripple is still worse off than not having a technique. A cripple doesn't even get that kind of side benefit. Whatever they crippled is fully on par with mortals- a body cripple could lose to a random farmer in an arm wrestling competition even if they're a reality warping super god for example.>>93952135>>93952154Nah, it's me. You can even see that I properly had it in the old, OG WIP version from last summer (pic related- "Cultivation Realms require having a technique that is both of that type and that grade or higher"). One of my biggest priorities was faithfully representing the genre. Whether you think it's poor design or not, it's the common sense of Xianxia and naturally I wanted to be faithful to that. I'm honestly pretty disappointed in myself for forgetting to put that in, and I can't blame you for being suspicious at that level of retardation. Even for me this is a new low.>>93952134...It's peak, I fear... I love that Xu's face got a censor bar. Lion bro looks so wholesome too, and our local sword autist... Mm... I think I'll avoid courting death and not saying anything.
>>93952200>A body cultivation techniqueWould certainly make your body stronger and more durable, but it wouldn't use Qi to accomplish it. Body cultivation has it's own energy resource, and then you'd need to worry about investing in body cultivation realms. If you pay all the point taxes I think you should be able to refluff your body cultivation as being Qi based though, so the main thing here is if you want to spend that many points or not.>a Qi supporting techniqueCould make your body stronger in a way that uses Qi. Just keep in mind that while you'll have a stronger body than Qi or Soul cultivators, Body Cultivators will still be stronger since that's what they specialize in. A good option to get what you want without spending a lot of points.>otherHard to say, but in general the same thing as before applies. Body Cultivators have the strongest bodies, so anything else you do would probably only get you closer to where they are. As for what other options there are, maybe you could invest in Saint or Devil cultivation and argue it as a kind of Qi based body cultivation? Or you could have some sort of treasure that makes your body stronger. A literal Other Technique that replaces your body with a puppet of some kind might also have similar results.
>>93952210 (me)...Honestly though I think I'm just going to go crawl into a hole and hide for a bit. Methinks I've put enough of my foolishness on display for one day. The thread functions just fine anyway and I feel like I've been butting in too often...
>>93952276work on your build bro
>>93952288I already did, but maybe I should go cook a chart or something.
>>93952296oh i see, i'm just a disgrace when it comes to figuring out anons by their builds so no worries
Alright, that's enough lollygagging. You've had your fun being your own general but now it's time to go back to /cyoag/. No more /mcyoag/ threads/.
>>93952317It's 5000% Zhimin bro, trust me I've never been wrong except for the times when I was wrong but they don't count
>>93952342nta, but Zhimin already has a chart out, so probably not.
>>93945973I was hoping to finish this tonight but it doesn't look likely at this point.>Tian opinionshttps://rentry.org/sb68kh3hAs people reply to >>93948530 I will update
>>93952350that's because I meant to type out Yana but my fingers betrayed me
>>93952352>Tainwho?
>>93945973So the KtH rantry says Soul Scenery/Spirits grant techniques intelligence, how intelligent is that compared to each level of Comprehension? Like how would a Spirit Inheritance Soul Spirit compare?
>>93952356Yana does have a saber, but I felt she smelled of city-anon.
>>93952375This came up a few threads ago. The rantry is out of date and that refers to an older version of the CYOA. Soul Scenery/Spirits no longer gives techniques intelligence.
>>93952375That technique intelligence is from the old version of the cyoa. The topic has been discussed a couple threads back, so you can look it up.
>>93952382Is it because of the gacha faceclaim?
>>93952396Half right. The other half is it felt ESL, and those two combined is pretty damning.
>>93952382Any other schizo guesses?
>>93952385>>93952387Ah, thanks, just looked through it. >>93926406 Sucks a little bit since Spirit Inheritance's flavor fits my idea but the mechanics don't. I'll have to rethink my build then.
>>93952406It's not a schizo guess, but saber's build is easy to find. He described his faceclaim in thread some time before posting the build. That's all I've got. Most of the anons either don't hide their builds or hide them too well for me to tell.
>>93952419>Most of the anons either don't hide their buildsName them.
>>93952406Hifumi-anon made Alkaios. I have nothing to back this up, my normal schizo-senses are telling me it's not him but I know it's him.
>>93952422Xu is a reused idea from KtH one. That's Sandatsu anon. Wanroe is Sally anon. When he rolls in thread to decide what to do on a given day, he usually includes his build names. Makes it pretty obvious.
>>93952414>Spirit InheritanceHas anyone picked that? The unique benefit doesn't sound very appealing. Forging a permanent bond sounds rather vague by itself, and on top of that, it weakens your soul which for a build to which that's central sounds horrible.
>>93952442Doesn't help that soul is the most meh of the three systems. Punching and caster blastering >>> stealth and illusions.
>>93952356It's obviously Yue (Disciple) since it's the only build with a saber.
>>93952442>Has anyone picked that?Nope, Spirit Inheritance and I think World Seed are unpicked so far this run.>The unique benefit doesn't sound very appealing.My other build idea would be fine with the weakening part assuming the buffs would be presumably stronger. Unfortunately the one I have more progress on has exactly the problem you pointed out.
>>93952450I agree, there's three builds with sabers albeit.
>>93952456They totally don't count and not because I just thought they have swords. They were both released too early, and saberchama mentioned working on his build after they had already been out.
>>93952470Which is why I agree that it's Yue (Disciple). The faceclaim is exactly what he said it is too. Open and shut case.
>>93951825He's the ultimate potentialman, meaning he's supposed to start off as a 4+/3/3 and learn more, leveraging the fact that his techniques are freaky as fuck and bend, or break the rules to the dismay of gods.>>93951950I see. Guess I'll resubmit with a new technique or something.
Kinda new to all this cultivation non-sense! But to put it bluntly it basically is the pursuit of self perfection through mediation, training, surgeries and magical bullshit! Correct? Because if so here is my cultivator!
>>93952505Unironically fits in. Congrats.

>>93945709>>93939625>If Only He Could Walk Awayhttps://rentry.org/fz2uttgzFantastic work! Got too excited, I'm reading ahead here. Hope it doesn't spoil much. The Five always has the coolest 'war' stories. I'm still waiting for that villain podcast. I like the small talk between Sam and Maddie as a way to comfort each other and vent over getting outvoted. I'm for the bits of lore thrown in. Inansi gives me an idea. And I bet a deaf pro hero could take out Jabberwocky, or someone with similar anti-sound abilities. I forgot about Chris' mom being Sunman's sidekick. Seems like Chris could seek out Bobby's mom for info on Miracle if he knew. Bobby and Chris did bond over their love of super sentai. >contractsFascinating back and forth between the team. It flowed pretty well! There has to be a handbook of the Five contract rules somewhere. I'm sure they gave Marrow pdf to study. Happy to see the Eri mission circling back. I bet if there's anything in Japan that would make Sam breaks a rule, it'd involve Eri -- or killing Christopher. Pro heroes likely has similar conflict issues with contracts. I could see the US hero system treating pro hero contracts like pro athletes, and having drafts and trades.This plays well into Sato's plans. He's ambitious and has something to prove since their father's mysterious retirement. When the Five were lent to the Shie Hissakai, he had two goals: draw out Luccione, and to better observe a rival clan's operations. He doesn't have to kill Chris, that the Shie Hissakai dared to raise a red light on someone on Sato's list - is disrespect enough, so he could declare war on Nagoya without the other 3 families interfering. The Five being caught in all of it makes it more fun. Saraki didn't know what he set off with that red light. A fun read as always. Now to catch up on other writefags in the proper order. Thanks for sharing!
>>93952516Sorry i am also kinda new to tg! Just played my first cyoa only 2 days ago! So i don't quite have any great ideas that would make for an interesting cyoa!

>>93952515Unironically thanks!
>>93952505>>93952515One of my first ideas was this. My idea was cripple X3 & inhered wisdom.

But then I saw the setting was a school so I ditched it.
>>93952503>his techniques are freaky as fuck and bend, or break the rules to the dismay of gods.His techniques don't do shit you lazy bastard they haven't been written
>>93952578Not my fault, anon. I am writing the raunchiest descriptions for Zhimin stabbing Rèn in my writefag and can't dedicate myself to anything else!I am also afraid that the MP will die unless content starts appearing soon, so I want to focus on stuff that matters.

>>93952627Na I dropped the idea. Can always use it later.>>93952593Sweet
>>93952645I'm sure we'll win the vote. Just need to talk the right anons into it. The one with Maomao as a faceclaim, right? Hype.
>>93945709>>93945854>A New Job (Flying Force, Saurus, Crazy Train, Desolator)https://rentry.org/oczh8osyI never saw Kaylee as someone who gets flustered, but this and her canon reaction to Rob's confession helps cement that for me. Putting all her eggs into training and battle left her lacking social graces, and it's cute to see her progress here. Fish-out-of-water stories are always fun. I do think she got a bit of fame from the Tourney, but perhaps the lack of showboating lost her some points. So Shinkan is talented at hamming it up? He doesn't get a lot of speaking roles in MHA fics, but he does have public relations. I had to check his build. Who is Shinkan's rival? He owes us a point. 10/10 Brit Hero Landing! Ofcourse Saurus would do pro wrestling type entrances. Makes me wonder what other students' heroic entrance would look like.>quirk-enhanced mobility, was forbiddenRip Gigan skateboard.

>>93953067Was kidnapped and experimented on by an unknown Organization. They tried to fuse me with two Weapons with minds sealed inside to create a new type of Artificial Esper. They were partially successful after taking my arm and memories away. The Gauntlet somehow bonded with my essence and serves as a powerful amplifier and conduit for my innate power. The effect was so good I managed to escape the lab after they suffered an attack from what looked like TRAC nobility. I managed to steal the other weapon, a Whip that was half fused to me already, and a prototype armor in the chaos, listening to the Gauntlet’s suggestions. Due to my powerful Esper abilities and amnesia, I was soon directed to a TRAC Academy where I now attend as something of an idiot savant, passing practical and oddly specific assignments with ease but failing things like basic history or science.The Gauntlet and Whip accompany me as my only companions for now and I can share and channel my powers through them as naturally as breathing. The Whip was apparently a thief before while the whip was an actual vampire though their memories end at that. They both encourage dubious acts like robbing all the valuables or leaving enemies drained after defeating them. I have become somewhat of a loner at school and spend my time trying to grow stronger and growing my wealth. My main goals now are to discover our pasts, what organization kidnapped us, and to get revenge. Cullinan acts almost crazy due to the Whip and Gauntlet talking to him with telepathy and him just responding, which to outsiders looks like he is talking to himself. At heart, he is aloof and proud but more out of awkwardness and acting like how he is perceived. His lack of history to shape him leaves him oddly out of touch and makes friendships hard to form.
>>93952527That’s a fun idea, thirded
>>93953448Sun Man's contract must have been worth a fortune.
>>93951489I like the idea, since one the biggest things that does get her to take things seriously is her distant past.And I'm more than okay sharing that life encounter slot.
>>93952755KTH
>>93952317It's obviously the C.C faceclaim. (I am awful with remembering Chinese names)
>>93945973It Starts with Nothing (Xū, Qianli, Yèwǎn, Ageratum and a cameo of Tian Rui and Yue towards the end) https://rentry.org/xxpy927ivery scuffed intro for xū
>>93953468Sweet. Then we can go with that. Anything I might need to know about Wanroe's past?
>>93953028Not a disciple but Zào probably started teaching around the middle of the 7th month of year 95.
>>93953521Kek. Great way to start the mp out. Good job anon.
>>93952517Glad you liked it!>The Five always has the coolest 'war' stories. I'm still waiting for that villain podcast.I'm thought about that doing off as a non-canon one-off, could be fun.>Inansi gives me an idea.Nice!>And I bet a deaf pro hero could take out Jabberwocky, or someone with similar anti-sound abilities.Oh a deaf hero would be immune to Jabberwocky and Saraki. They'd have no real counterplay.> I forgot about Chris' mom being Sunman's sidekick. Seems like Chris could seek out Bobby's mom for info on Miracle if he knew. Bobby and Chris did bond over their love of super sentai.I've considered it, but I can't remember if Bobby's mom came with him to Japan or stayed in the states.> I could see the US hero system treating pro hero contracts like pro athletes, and having drafts and trades.I'm here for it.>Saraki didn't know what he set off with that red light.He really didn't think that far ahead. The thing with him is I'm not sure it'd stop him if he knew.
>>93953625>Oh a deaf hero would be immune to Jabberwocky and Saraki. They'd have no real counterplay.nta, but I'd imagine that both villains would just use their quirk on other people, hoping to cause enough trouble or put enough people in danger that the hero is forced to prioritize saving civillians than taking them down. They'd be pretty screwed if forced into an actual 1v1 though.
>>93953685Yeah, I was only thinking about a 1v1, but you're right.
>>93953710So how would Saraki deal with a patient who has a dangerous and interesting quirk, but happens to be deaf? I can't imagine he'd be able to restrain his curiosity enough to not study them. Would he make someone else play the role of doctor and just watch from a safe distance? Would he just accept the risk and do with ordinary safety measures?
>>93953746>Would he just accept the risk and do with ordinary safety measures?This one if it's interesting.
>>93953521Good stuff anon, pretty cool way to begin. I wonder how much debt with Xu accumulate.
>>93953759Seems he really can't resist the allure of an interesting quirk, huh. Guess that makes him a fitting villain for a quirk nerd like Chris... Come to think of it, Chris isn't deaf but he has a way around Saraki's quirk, so it's not all that different.I wonder if Saraki will try to trick Chris by getting him to absorb a quirk he doesn't fully understand now that he dropped the eye quirk. Like a quirk with some sort of compulsion that'd make him easier to trick. Or maybe even another quirk that can cause memory loss to test if maybe it's memory loss that leads to a dropped quirk instead of the other way around.
>>93953779>I wonder how much debt with Xu accumulate.nta, but probably a lot. Somewhere around [extra redacted].
>>93953524TLDR version is that long ago, the consort of an unspecified empire sacrificed all of her peers to get possessed by a very strong demon, killed the empress and made the emperor of said empire kill himself. Afterward she ran off with all of her children, most of which never came back to support her. Wanroe was the one she had outside of the palace and stuck around to see her mother degrade into a cheap whore in a remote mountain village to try and satisfy the demon attached to her.The big motivation of hers is to avoid ending up like her pitiful mother by creating a system by which she can eternally please It That Thirsts, the demon that is her curse and boon.
>>93951082I have a game of Factorio going, I've been rotting for days.
>>93945973If I wanted to make a cultivator that had succumbed to their heart devil, how would I go about doing that? Noble Bloodline or Non-Human?
>>93953918Probably the True Devil drawback & perk.
>>93953918Seconding >>93953927
>>93952645I'm not against that, but I would like an explanation of how the drafts work.
>>93954002City with the highest crime rate gets the first overall pick
>>93952134My man is rockin the ponytail, thx man.
>>93953870Gotcha. So now the question is how to blend those stories together. I spent some time trying to think of a way for those stories to be more directly related, but I think there's too many details that conflict. Couldn't find a way to make it work.The best answer I can come up with is that the two backstories should involve two different empires. I.E. Wanroe's mother was the consort of a different empire and destroyed it. She later showed up at Yue's empire and seduced Yue's brother, but shortly after fled, giving birth to Wanroe elsewhere, outside of the palace.Finally, Wanroe grew up a bit, returned to Yue's empire, and proved that she was of royal blood, worming her way into the imperial family. There she bid her time before eventually throwing a coup and destroying Yue's empire (like mother like daughter, I suppose, both skilled at destroying nations).
>>93953064This looks like a really shitty vash the stampede OC>Read filenameAh...
>>93953028Shizi arrived on the fifth month of the year 100
>>93954174Better or worse than you were expecting?
>>93954151I like it, and give it express approval.If your wondering how to write Wanroe personally, she's very proper and regal on the surface but uncaring of anything but her own greater goals once she knows the game is up, usually travels with a whole party of attendants and at least two swordmistress bodyguards so she doesn't have to expend too much effort if a self-righteous assassin appears.
>>93954452Gotcha. I think it's all settled then. We should be good to go.
>>93947848I've added the techniques.For the names, I tried to keep a rather naturalistic theme to match the barbarian background. Also, I tried to make it sound a bit like technique names shouted in old kung-fu movies. The Body Tempering one stands out a bit because I didn't have a better idea, and it's also more strongly tied to his bloodline (and I was getting tired since that was the last one I was writing), so I gave it a pass.I fear they might be a bit too simple for upgraded techniques, but on the other hand, fancy is not the same as strong, and I think with some vagueness they have, they could scale up.I hope they are acceptable. I think getting into xianxia aesthetics is hard for me.>>93953028Since I made the build late, I think it's appropriate for Batudai to arrive late, so I'd say 1st day of the 12th month of the year 100.
>>93953521I like it a lot.
>>93952573>My idea was cripple X3 & inhered wisdomYou couldn't take multiple Professions then
>>93952573>cripple X3 & inhered wisdomlol how did I miss this before? You can't benefit from techniques if you take mundane mind so this build can't do anything except buy treasures and use spirit stones to power them. The inherited wisdom special ability would also be limited to realm 0 since all your cultivation realms are crippled.
>>93956070Theoretically, if he took saint or devil, it would start at 0, but could be improved after that.
>>93956078If I was omega crippled I would walk the path of the devil without hesistation
>>93956078Sadness, the wording on immortal herb just killed a potential meme idea here.The idea was making a cripple X3 & inherited wisdom build, getting both True Devil and True Saint then raising both to realm 10 purely for the meme. Unfortunately, Immortal Herb specifies you can only use it on the qi, body, and soul cultivation. There's no way to cheese this meme, you need to actually put in the work.
>>93956144Nevermind, cultivation elixirs don't include that bit. If you put everything into buying drugs you can become the omega cripple that became a true devilish saint.
>>93956144You can't get True Devil and Saint anyway lmao
>>93956166It probably matters little considering the cheese you're already doing, but lorewise there's no way Cultivation Elixirs can increase your saint/demon level.
>>93956167Every time I read that they're incompatible, I immediately forget it again. If you see some retard talking about having both of them again it will probably be me because my brain refuses to retain that information.
>>93956144I think there is a line somewhere that says Fated Encounters overrule drawbacks. So you could be born omega crippled and then juice to the maxx.You'd lose the benefits of the drawbacks though
>begin conducting audit>start with my own>fail the auditTruly the heavens have spurned me.
>>93956250>I think there is a line somewhere that says Fated Encounters overrule drawbacksThis only applies to Crippled Talent.
>>93956265>Crippled Talent.>be born omega crippled and then juice to the maxx.
>>93956280I wasn't contesting that.
>>93948530>Zào Zhēn>Benevolence 4/5She actively seeked others to help out before becoming a teacher, she’s pretty devoted to making the world a better place. I’ve dropped her down a rank only because there’s an ideological reason behind it rather than it being pure altruism.>Righteousness 5/5Her ideals on justice and how to make the world a better place are her primary motivations in life. If somebody were to criticise her ideals they would come at it from the angle of her being too utopian in her beliefs or that they would be impossible to properly implement in society, not that they’re monstrous or would cause untold amounts of suffering.>Propriety 1/5She’s cordial and refined, her background as the daughter of wealthy merchants is rather apparent but… she also wants to tear down the current social order and enact sweeping social reforms. If this was the french revolution she’d be firmly on the side of the Jacobins.>Wisdom 5/5She’s very much a philosopher before anything else, if this were the real world she’d be remembered as a highly influential political theorist more than she would as a warrior or inventor. She’s a Marx or a Voltaire rather than a Lenin or a Mussolini.
>>93956370>Sincerity and Honesty 3/5She’d try to keep her promises if she makes them and she isn’t exactly fond of lying but if she has to she will. She’d probably justify it with the fact it’s a dog eat dog world and that as a mortal she has to gain every advantage she can to achieve her goals, but it would still leave a bad taste in her mouth. You can probably trust her to keep her word, but in the way you expect a merchant to keep their word, not the way a saint would. >Loyalty 4/5If you can manage to convince her you’re a fellow revolutionary she’ll be loyal to the end, that’s the big caveat though; you actually have to share your beliefs with her (at least in part) in order for that loyalty to exist. Additionally she does have expectations of being treated as an equal rather than a subordinate, though the inverse is also true; she’d prefer to have comrades she can consider her equals rather than obedient lackeys or servants.>Filial Piety ???/5From an outsider’s point of view she might seem like a 4 or 5 given her great respect for her own parents and teachers, but that’s mostly because she was lucky enough to have parents and teachers worth respecting. Her beliefs are egalitarian at their core, her dream is to create a world where all men are equals rather than one where the old are respected just for being old, though she would be respectful to somebody who proved themselves wiser than her. What you rank her as probably depends on if you think her stated worldview or how she views her parents is more important.>Self Control 4/5She doesn’t really have many vices in the first place, so it’s hard to say she lacks discipline. The fact that when one of her disciples says something chauvinistic against mortals or when one of them thinks she’s a student she just lectures them instead of slapping them is an impressive show of restraint in her eyes.>View on mortalsI think it's pretty obvious what her stance is.

>>93948530Gale>Benevolence: 4/5>Righteousness: 4/5Gale's not the hero type, but during his travels he's seen plenty of examples of the strong picking on the weak. He's not a stranger to being one of the weak either. Is is really the only way those people can enjoy themselves, by taking away someone else's freedom? It just doesn't seem that fair, but then again the world isn't fair. Things have changed however. Gale walks the path of the cultivator, and that path gives you the power to change the world as you like. So why shouldn't he keep walking down it and pull people from their dead-end trails? The path which traces the heart's desires will make the earth yield to it step by step.>Propriety: 2/5Just enough to function in society, albeit at the very fringes of it.>Wisdom: 1/5Gale has an open mind, but unfortunately it also means its largely empty right now. Plenty of space to store things in though, given time.>Sincerity: 5/5>Loyalty: 5/5Gale is always true to himself. He may be mischievous, lazy, or too curious for his own good, but no matter his mood or whims he always chosen to live by it under no influence but his own. To try and change it is as futile as yelling at a cloud to come down from the sky. That also means that the ones who Gale has opened his heart to are the ones he'd lift up and never let fall, as to let down someone so precious to him would need Gale to fall down first.Pic unrelated.
>>93956521>Filial Piety: 2/5If it weren't for Zephyr, Gale would have kept roaming around the countryside without any knowledge that the world around him could be so much larger. Even so, Gale doesn't really treat Zephyr with the proper respect that a master deserves. Sure, it lifted him from a dead end life, but to be honest Zephyr doesn't really act like a proper master. It'd be hard for Gale to adapt to a real mentor since his only experience is a mysterious being who keeps spouting off about the weather and the currents of the heart and soul.>Honesty: 5/5To always speak the truth is to keep one's spirit light, and Gale's spirit is light indeed. He doesn't have much of an opinion on truth, falsehoods, or justice, but he sees no reason to ever deceive someone through words. If he doesn't wish to talk to someone, he's honest through his actions and avoids interaction by taking solace someplace else.>Self Discipline: 1/5Zephyr may follow Gale along his escapades and misadventures, but he's also there to ensure Gale's progress. Gale does possess the talent and desire to move up in the Realms, however his mind is often taken by desires for play or companionship. It is important that he doesn't fall to the wayside of the world once again and continues moving forever up and onward to ensure a legacy in the world, even if it is not a goal in Gale's mind yet.>View on Mortals: One and the SameIt hasn't really clicked with Gale yet that he's of a different stock than those who do not cultivate. He had a late start so it's all very new to him compared to his life as a miscreant. That's why he holds no special views on mortals and treats cultivators as a spectacle, as he has not yet lost his spark for all these mystical sights and experiences. The day that he stops treating these things as a wonder is likely very, very far in the future.
>>93956521>>93956370Updated.
What do anons think is a better representation of the young genius trope in xianxia. >17 techniques but cultivation of 4/1/1>10 techniques any cultivation of 4/3/3Both imply to me high potential, versatility, and imply above normal levels of talent.
>>93956743The latter.
>>939567434/4/4 should be what you're trying to reach first.
>>93956762I mean that would be great but the cost is prohibitive, Divine talent + immortal comprehension costs 165 of the 175 points. Even scraping for extra points only nets you +20-40. Which doesn't go far.Then again maybe its worth it.
>>93956749>>93956762nta, but hear me out. Have him go lower with like 2/2/2 or 3/3/3, but do everything possible to max his combat power. Royal Bloodline, Exotic Spirit Root, Soul Spirits, full suite of upgraded techniques, etc. Make him an absolute monster that's invincible in his own cultivation realm.
>>93956788Actually I forgot to include the extra cultivation techniques which cost at least 20 since you only get 1 for free. This means 185 minimum. Lets assume the common fatal flaws and one or two circumstances give you +30 that means I'd have 20 points to convey the rest of the character.
>>93956794That wouldn't be 2/2/2 or 3/3/3
>>93956788what fated encounter are you going with?
>>93956794Oh, that's actually a pretty good idea.
>>93956794>2/2/2 3/3/3I think all 2s doesn't achieve the goal since you'd have to take a bunch of mortal tier choices. All 3's is possible but since the starting option is 4/3/3 its just a worse version right?
>>93956815It'd be 1/1/1 purely with what I suggested, but I figured comprehension would be needed for combat power too, so he'd ultimately end up getting some realm boosts anyway.
>>93956818Yeah I left out the fated encounter, I guess that gains you 80ish points where ever you put it.
>>93956828So it wouldn't be 1/1/1...
>>93956875It could be if you skipped comprehension, but then you wouldn't truly have max in-realm combat power.
>Make a build>Realize it doesn't have at least a few techniques beyond the few I get for free, ergo I am >Realize my free techniques overlap when I don't need them to>Realize it doesn't have a Custom Treasure that uses the 25 point discount>Realize I don't have a UPGRADED Protective Treasure (I don't know why I need this either but I'm feel not having one is a death flag)>Realize I don't have a Medicine Elixir to use mid-combatOver?
>>93956966>I don't know why I need this either but I'm feel not having one is a death flagYou don't need it as long as you don't take ruthless foes/exposed encounter
>>93956743Between the two I think it would come down to the wire either way. Since we know the 4/3/3 cultivator has 3 cultivation techniques it is more like 8 vs 16. Which is a wide gap in terms of options, mean while they are equal in terms of primary cultivation. So it comes down to if the 4/3/3 is able to leverage their other cultivation apects over the more trained one. At 16 that's means they probably have 1 of every type, or near enough so I'm not sure they would be able to.
>>93956801Can't you grab three of them with eccentric?
>>93956966>relying on protective treasuresYour cowardice hinders your every step. Only those with the boldness to challenge heaven are worthy of calling themselves cultivators.
>>93956966>>Realize I don't have a UPGRADED Protective Treasure (I don't know why I need this either but I'm feel not having one is a death flag)>>Realize I don't have a Medicine Elixir to use mid-combatLmfao no one uses these
>>93957010Everyone else's loss.My last build attempted of course had 4 body tempering so free life regeneration without needing to spend energy on would be REALLY good.
>>93957048>steals your medicine elixir and drinks it before youYour move?
>>93957060>steals your life and drinks your blood before your withered huskYour move, wait. No you ded.
>>93957066>steals your cum and bills you child supportYour move.
>>93957066>he thinks the hologram was realKekaroo!
>>93957079>somehow drinks the blood of a hologramI kneel
>>93957001And have my cultivation techniques be basic? Couldn't be me.
>>93957081Holographic blood again? ...My favorite!
>>939567624/4/4 is practically impossible for normal builds. The only half practical way is to be a reincarnated immortal sadly.
>>93957205Nah, Tao Talents seem to beat out Reincarnated based on my test builds for a 4/4/4 Cultivator. It's not too bad, you just gotta take Loose, Bounty, or Steep Decline. After all that you have Two Techniques and a Variant/Bloodline/Spirit to do whatever with. Not to mention a total of 5 points leftover!
>>93957250Or Notorious, you could do that too. Make a Devil Cultivator for 4/4/4/4.
>>93957250My test build is also 4/4/4 but I am a technique whore so I've done everything I can to keep immortal scriptures. Not sure its worth it since the value of "superior" grade techniques is ill defined vs Ancient Bloodline and Physique.
niggas trying to 'beat' the cyoa in MP instead of picking what fits their character concept
>>93957274Unrelated but>Ancient Bloodline and PhysiqueThe fact that we all know to not bother mentioning Spirit Inheritance is hilariousI guess it would be good for a Taming Profession build (and nothing else) but if KTH ever gets updated it should get a buff.
>>93957283>picking what fits their character conceptThe cyoa has many ways of going about reaching the same or similar end points. Its not a bad thing to want to get there in an optimal fashion.
>>93957283The character concept is literally being the archetypical prodigial Young Master thoAnons are talking about what would best fit that
>>93957283If I wanted to "beat the cyoa" I'd just make an ancestor and make myself so OP it would make sovereigns blush.
>>93957299>he fell for the Ancestor memeElders are objectively the strongest because unlike Ancestors they aren't cucked out of actually being a Sovereign
>>93957308>cucked out of actually being a Sovereignwhat did he mean by this
Someone should do a list based on which characters they think have the most potential to weak Sovereign tier
>>93957333nta, but but ancestors have hit the wall while disciples and elders have the potential to go beyond them to sovereignty
>>93957333>he doesn't know
>>93957333NTA but its stated right in the CYOA, you've exhausted all your potential and have topped out on power. So you can be as strong as you want but you'll never be a Sovereign.
>>93957336If mine isn't at the bottom I will seethe and cry.
>>93957336>weakI meant reach how did I mess that up
>>93957274I still don't understand the functional differences between lower grade techniques and grade 10 techniques. Especially since everyone is disciples.
>>93957356Bigger number means betterAs for better, it means better both qualitatively and quantitativelyA Grade 10 technique is stronger than Grade 4 and it can have more esoteric effects
>>93957356At the disciple level, not a whole lot. The difference is scalability. Basically you don't have to worry about the technique being obsolete when you break into Realm 5. Assuming your Comprehension is good enough, you could try and redevelop the lower Grade techniques into something higher level, but that could be time better spent pondering the Tao.
What type of CYOA would you want to play? In genre, theme, and mechanics.
>>93957418I can tell whether something is or is not ideal, but if you were to ask me to say what the ideal is, I feel I would not be able to imagine it.
>>93957418Horror cyoa where power is determined by ball size.
>>93957418I just want a VTMB CYOA
>>93957418>genreMostly any but there are a few I just don't like, but I'm having a lot of fun with KTH so I would have to REALLY hate the genre to not have fun.>themeLike the setting? Or like the overarching theme?>mechanicsHonestly, KTH isn't perfect but it's one of the best we have. Mechanics that let you do a lot of stuff to get creative for writefags while also having some "meat" to talk about.
>>93957428futa bros has our time finally come?
>>93957442Yes. Full package chads will inherit the earth.
>>93957405Factually incorrect.Grade 10 techniques actually are that strong, it means you have a insane trump card that nobody else of your tier can usually do. Its why we can punch up a rank or two. Its still limited by our current strength, but its an insanely powerful technique. It'll get stronger as we level like you said though.
>>93945973Here's my probably total ass tier list>ExplanationsAgeratum/Zao - Rich, innovative, and perfect luck Mortal Savants; they'd have to be stupid to fuck it upDong - Talent in every category and a strong Fated Encounter without any bad flawsTain - See DongShizi - I don't like him but he has strong talents and if Immortal Physique should make it easy to become a Sovereign so should Ancient Bloodline, no Flaws should helpTora - Shizi but I actually like her, her talents are a little worse but I think she'll barely scrap by to Sovereign also she makes me erectYana - Maybe she'll make it but she just has a strong sword and ok talentsYue - Talent is tied to her treasure and mostly relies on Comprehension, I think she'll stop just short of SovereignWen - lolTaizhou - Mortal Savant but he's not richSaya - Similar to Yana, works out that I think her rival has the same potential as herZhimin - Same as YueGale - Bro's mundane mind can't comprehend the Tao (skull emoji) jk maybe he could but he isn't totally talented and a dumbfuck can only be taught so much by a mentorHongxing - See Yue, and why do we have so many Fallen Immortals?Yewan - I think he could make Ancestor but bro is getting killed for his students because of plot, THANKS Exposed Encounter assholes (he would have died regardless)Xu - Not lucky enough, he's drawbacked and literallypilledShi - See XuAlkaios - Bro's getting Ruthlessly ViolatedZheng - Saintsissies don't have the guts to reach SovereignZhou - Bro... where's your luck...Yue - Luckless!

>>93957702woah woah that was not me!kek I guess I'll just change my namefag to whatever my current build is
>>93957750Uooooh! Disadvantaged Cultivators! Naughty Cultivators need Pill Correction...
>>93957773Nta but when I compiled everyone into excel I noticed those two are among the least popular techniques. Not the bottom, but not as popular as I thought they would be.
>>93957771>>93957757Wen smut when?
Rolled 2 (1d2)>>93945973 Which meme will I fall for today?1. Inherited Wisdom2. Comprehension
>>93957806Lemme see the excel pretty plz
>No Dual Cultivation builds/mcyoag/ weaklings...
>>93957844>He doesnt know the canon
>>93957844All the cultivators are virgins, dual cultivating hasn't been invented and doing anything lewd is considered something only disgusting mortals do because it dirties the soul and weakens your foundation and tao.This is our lore.
>>93957865...soup ranking?
>>93957878sovereign po(n)tential
>>93957844Bro... your Hóngxīng?
>>93957865This has to be upside down
>>93957898It's objectively wrong.
>>93957418>>93957430VTM and I'd nut. It would have to be in a specific city though otherwise there'd be zero reason for characters to engage with each other.
>>93957865>Wen Wanroe>Literally the only build that can never reach sovereign>S tier sovereign potentialwhat was he cooking?
>>93957926>>93957934what's wrong with it
>>93957865No Ancestor has any potential to reach Sovereign, so that's pretty wrong right off the bat.
>>93957954You didn't read the cyoa
>>93957953Somehow worse than the other one
>>93957953>>93957971I judged ignoring levels. It's based purely in whether they're the type of person who could do it.
>>93957987then you're retarded lmfao
>>93957987You're posting anonymously, you can just acknowledge you didn't read the CYOA properly and move on. You don't have to post retarded cope.
>>93958004okay yewan/zhimin/tiazhou/ageratum
>>93958014That'd have be true for me to acknowledge it. Putt Wen at the bottom for being an ancestor would be boring so I placed them according to character.
>>93958030I'm C-Tier, which sucks, but you're probably right.
>>93945973What profession does turning people into pills to steal their talent/comprehension fall under? Alchemy?
>>93958049Yep its just normal alchemy
Friendly reminder that the lower your potential in the eyes of the retarded masses, the higher your actual potential.
>>93958030>Xu gets that low>Immortal Physique alone is enough to become a Sovereign any other timeWell ok, guess his luck fucked him over->Shi and other lucklets as high as they areWhat.
>>93958057COPE
>>93958057If anything, they haven't ranked my build low enough tbqh. O felt like I made a pretty by the books jobber.
>>93957987Considering Wen didn't do it she obviously isn't
>>93958065Xu capped out at ancestor in another life so he doesn't have a good track record
>>93958065Xu's problem is the logical conclusion of his Tao is either self destruction or mass destruction (and he doesn't have that devil in him, so the later is unlikely to be an option).
>>93958086Fallen Immortals have the highest chance to make it to Sovereign. Did you even read the CYOA?
>>93957610The fact that this has explanations makes it the best one despite being so bad. Let this be an example to all who don't provide explanations.
>>93957610Crazy how this remains the only good sovereign tier list...
>>93958094So what?
>>93958094...in my degenerate headcanon.
>>93958100...in another life.
>>93958066Street nigga with no eyes with which to see Mt. Tai.Elders, turn this monkey's testicles into boner pills. >>93958075If you're Argeratum, it's anons overrating preptime builds again. If you're not, then anons probably like your build, since all of these potential tier lists are just "do I like your build" contests.
>>93958030Accurate for my jobber
>>93957773That is until I whip out [DEPARTURE OF TEMPTEOUS THUNDER, HERALDING OF FAIR WEATHER] and turn their attack right back at them making their qi points explode 50 million times.
Only one of these put my build low enough.
>>93958115>"do I like your build" contestsThis is exactly what I want
>>93958124Ayy, Sukuna build would be gay as fuck, but still kinda fun.
>>93958124WisdomCHADs truly are unstoppable
>>93958115>the likeable builds are the ones with the most potential in the collaborative fanfic generalamazing revelation
>>93958137RATC got one.
>>93958115>"do I like your build"If that were true I wouldn't let Shizi be at the top.
>>93958124>Needs a ReversalIf you have a Reversal you don't have a Detection and you job to StealthCHADS, sorry Mundanedummy.
>>93958112...I would be your girl.
>>93958174Time to illegally edit the CYOA and add "Senses on par with Detection techniques" just to maintain the Inherited Wisdom agenda.
>>93957610>>93957865>>93958030>spend my morning revising the character build>see that anons think he currently has sovereign potential>now I want to throw out all the work I didPardon me I must enter seclusion to meditate on this.
>>93958174And yet>Soul Cultivation>Realm 1: Spirit Awakening>From this point on, one's soul can stretch out to view their surroundings, granting clairvoyanceAfterwards, just use Inherited Wisdom to upgrade this to a Detection Technique.Inherited Wisdom truly has no weakness.
>>93958213Tainanon... you shouldn't let yourself be so easily influenced by tierlists, even the anons who made them will forget about them tomorrow.
>>93958213>Taint is a true Sovereigndamn how did he manage that
>>93958219>just use Inherited Wisdom to upgrade this to a Detection Technique.Inherited Wisdom doesn't do that at all
>>93958243My guess is heaven forgot about him so they didn't set up the appropriate hurdles.
>>93958251Does it actually not do that or is this a pendantic "Erm they're not techniques, they're just on par with them"Even if it is legitimate there's a 2nd exploit anyways>Noble Bloodline>Noble Bloodlines grant an inborn ability, scaled based on your Body Cultivation Realm.>Pick a Reversal Noble Bloodline to get a reversal techn- I mean inborn ability>Have the one skill I'm allowed be a Detection technique>No weakness again
>>93958275>Can Reverse... if you have more energy>Take a Supporting Cultivation technique>The Wisdomdummy can no longer muster up enough energy to reverse it

>>93958328>Make Royal Bloodline ability>it nullfies other Royal Bloodline abilitiesThe rain of success spills from my own mouth.
How come more anons didn't make any cool Variant Spirit Roots or Bloodlines or Mind Spirits?That's one of the funnest parts.
>>93958392>didn't make any cool Variant Spirit Roots
>>93958392I got no idea what Mind Spirits even really do. I just picked it cause it seemed cool.
>>93958392I bought the options but I'm unfortunately incapable of making anything cool.
>>93958406He said more, it's not over yet! Your build can still be good!
>>93958418Mind Spirits seem to me to be an excuse to have a cool pet spirit. Someone to live inside your head and talk to you about stuff.
>>93958421
>>93958392I went techniquemaxxing like a retard so I could only afford a shitty one, and I couldn't think of anything good. I'll try to do better in the rewrite.
>>93958418They're debuffs and buffs for people I think, they don't affect you directly
>>93958437I went big into techniques but hard to cut them to afford other things, which is a pity as I have like 20 techniques written up now.
>>93958418Spooky custom voodoo power, a spirit let's you set it to different modes basically.
>>93958443>20 techniques written up nowLegitimately how? I can't even finish writing up the ones I bought.

>>93958448idk stole ideas from all the wuxia media ive consumed. Writing technique names and concepts is fun. If you want help with some I am happy to throw some ideas at you for yours.
>>93958453An infamous trickster and criminal known for his perverse tendency of torturing young prodigies with schemes and traps that usually end up crushing them with their difficulty. His personal claims of helping with tempering the new generation is disregarded due to his extreme definition of tempering. Even heavenly children of Gods themselves are not spared his tests and have been crippled or died. Bounties on his person are all throughout the world and many Gods personally seek his death due to both his past life as a prolific Devil Sect Ancestor and his current life’s cruel acts. In his mind however he is acting in accordance with the heavens, hardship and suffering being the true whetstone for cultivators. Rarely fights himself, relying on summons, talismans, and intelligent techniques he casts to carry out his trials in a vast area. Only those he deems prodigious are given trials by himself personally. For those that actually manage to surpass his trials he takes note of, often rewarding them with pointers and minor talismans and equipment that would not stifle their growth by their power imbalance. Occasionally he will even refine their cultivation base itself, a torturous procedure but with powerful returns, correcting flaws and potentially improving their foundations.He is one of the best Artifact and Talisman creators in the world but is extremely stringent on producing such items for others unless they can force a favor from him or truly surprise him in a trial.Is exceptionally good at escaping with his amassed resources and triple God cultivation Base. Is known to throw himself into disadvantageous situations on purpose to temper himself and either emerge victorious or escape with his life. Among Gods, he is one of the best at being a cockroach, even achieving true Reincarnation before.His ultimate wish is to temper the Heavens themselves to truly cull the chaff from the Cultivation World.
>>93958462>Bounty >Notorious >Steep DeclineThe only way I survive that is if I dip even further with Exposed Encounter for Hiding in Plain Sight, which I'd rather not.
>>93958473>Exposed EncounterThat's sure to kill you. Just invest in a Stealth technique or take a Life Encounter that helps you lay low.
>>93958453>caps at Ancestor>reincarnates, achieving Tao Grade Comprehension>...caps at Ancestor againFunny build concept anon, good job, I hope to see his antics
>>93958462Notorious and Bounty are literal embodiments of a heart devil. They sit there tempting me, eternally. Just take them. Its free points. Take them. Think of what you could do with them. Nothing bad would happen. Free points. Take them.Same thing with abandoned by fate. Free points just sitting there. Waiting to be gobbled up.
>>93958483Fatelets will end up in unsatisfying marriages that they can't escape.
>>93958483Key difference is that, like most Drawbacks, the measly 10 points from Abandoned by Fate is NOT worth how much it screws you over. Bounty and Notorious are much more workable in comparison, especially Bounty.
>>93958489I will have points to take an escape technique.NEXT
>>93958463Thanks for the offer, but I think I have the concepts mostly sorted. I just don't know how strong techniques should be, what's the difference between a grade 4 and a grade 10 technique, that sort of thing. Maybe I'll go read some of the technique charts to see how other anons scale their stuff.
>>93958453>>93958465Interesting, may I suggest a visit to the Empire of Wen? I have many young disciples in our ranks who need to be weeded out more.... creatively. Kill and scar as you wish, whatever brings you the most joy if you choose to come.
>>93958492Fate is a crutch. You are puppets to the whims of Heaven and you hope to surmount it? Fools!absolute correct though.

You know how Soul Scenery made ALL your techniques intelligent, but that was moved to Comprehension and Soul Scenery became its own thing?I feel like that about Variant Spirit Roots. Its the same as Soul Scenery: Its a "Qi Gathering specific option" but actually it affects Body Temperers and Soul Refiners too.
>>93958901I don't really know what you're trying to say but part of Qi's thing is being the middle path.
>>93958901Unless you have the Physique or take something like Spirit Root: Body/Soul, I don't really see why.
>>93958901I think of all 3 as intertwined fundamentally. Your spirit root (to me) is going to affect your other aspects because it affects who you are. If you have a fire root I would imagine your life energy to be more wild and erratic as well. I would expect your soul to radiate warmth or even burn other spectral entities.Same goes for the others as well, If you have a "Mountain Giant" blood line, I would expect that to have some sort of effect on your Qi, making it thick and heavy and your soul to be robust and unmoving.
>>93958914>I don't really know what you're trying to sayWell then what can I say>>93958917>I think of all 3 as intertwined fundamentally.The cultivation systems? Yeah.The choices attached to them? Somewhat?Soul Scenery is specifically linked to your Soul Refining rank, and your Lineage Power is specifically linked to your Body Tempering on how strong it is. But that's not true for Qi Root.>inb4 This is autismYes
>>93945973Ageratum I am thinking of having you as my rival and am trying to write out first meeting. Do you have any character info you can share so I can make it abit better. Style of speaking, how he arrives at the school, appearance (does he wear the mask always?) that sort of thing.
>>93958929Eh, they're already pretty tied to your rank. The bloodline is the only one that mentions scaling, but having higher levels of Qi Gathering makes your spells more esoteric which means the stuff you can do with your spirit root is too.
>>93958969That's what you're missing.You can just use your Qi Root to help your Soul Refining/Body Tempering techniques. It just means you're aligned to X element, this affects all cultivations equally.
>>93958976Whee do you take that from?
>>93945973One more JJK edit before I head out. I should use the time to update my chart but I can't help but waste it on shitposts instead.
>>93958857>>93958392I thought Flow was a very cool very simple sounding one, that becomes really strong when you consider the rest of her abilities and their effects and how widely applicable it is
>>93959019>waste it on shitposts instead.I know that feeling anon
>>93959006Saberanon has talked about how body cultivators can still shoot fire and stuff, it just has to come from their body instead of being it being like or cultivators.The alternative is that people without Qi Gathering have no inert elemental affinity.
>>93958940Sure. If only I finished my chart already, that would make this easier for you.>Style of speakingNot sure how I would put it. Business casual? A formal-casual hybrid? He'd use unusual words like "beseech" or "ponder" and then say "duh" or "dummy" in the same sentence. Xu anon had a portrayal of him I liked in his writefag.>how he arrives at the school, From Xu anon's writefag, he just appeared suddenly, which I'm ok with. Probably heard about it at random from a vagrant. I imagined he was shooketh upon meeting Yewan, but after that he quickly came to reside in his hut.>appearance (does he wear the mask always?) Yes, and his robes conceal the platform shoes he wears to look taller, but if you watched him close enough you could tell. Is he a twink? Is he just really ugly? It is unknown. If you wanted his mask off for whatever reason, you can make him look like whatever you want or just have his face cast in shadow due to the convenient but poor lighting.>that sort of thingHe isn't that gullible, and could be quick to pick up on the schemes of others, but he thinks he's smarter than he really is.And as he is right now, he'd never admit he made a mistake, like being in a situation out of his control.Also, he likes others looking up to him, so he'd try to put himself in a leadership role if the opportunity presented itself.I'll edit my rentry (I'm allergic to reposting), who's your build?
>>93959019Who are all our Heart Domains for DOMAIN EXPANSION? How do you think they would look/work in JJK?
>>93959038Qifags crying when Bodychads just drink a half a bottle of alcohol and hold a torch infront of their mouth and blow up a mountain by infusing their limitless potential into the alcohol and then spraying it out in a fireball.
>>93959043>If you wanted his mask off for whatever reason, you can make him look like whatever you wantI knew there was a cute girl hiding underneath it.
>>93959049I though heart domains were cringe but I did consider a domain expansion-esque bloodline technique.This post was brought to you by Unhelpful Anons Inc.
WaitCould you have Soul Refining in Martial Path by Buying a cultivation technique of the highest rarity, where some soul-reinforcing techniques exist?
>>93959054Qifags and Soulfags do seem like the chumpier Cultivators>Qifags have to replace their inner world with the Golden Pill for a period of time and write a whole-ass book>All those souls Soulfags vored earlier suddenly became sentient, talk about awkwardBodyfags just smith they organs and shit
>>93959070Yes
>>93959019Hell yeah artfags rule
>>93959049Xu, Shi Ren, Saya, Gale, Alkaios, Yue, Zao, and Hundan are all our Heart Domain people from a quick glance with F3.>Xu: [Absolute Void]I imagine it to be like Gojo's Infinite Void. Instead of overwhelming the mind with infinite information, its overwhelming it with pure sensory deprivation. Absolute nothingness which completely encapsulates the target and allows Xu to close in and hit his target easily with his Trump Card.>Shi Ren: [Endless Eroding Wheel of Reincarnation]Honestly I'm just thinking that it completely rips off Mahoraga's adaptation but as a domain. A stationary Wheel which responds to any attack fits his enduring nature and taking down foes with their own power is the ultimate flex, showing that those above him can no longer strike him down like they are used to. Possibly open barrier to maximize the amount of targets who can potentially hit him.>Saya: [Flooded Field of Crimson Tears]They already wrote the effects of their Heart Domain so it'd just be an extension of that, causing wounds to bleed profusely and boosting it to leech directly from the opponent instead of waiting for the end of combat.>Gale: [Heavenly Interception for Earthly Desires]Perfect defense, every move the opponent makes generates a cloud that pushes back with equal force, making lethal moves near impossible. The more they struggle, the more clouds are generated until the opponent is forcibly subdued by no longer being able to move in the clouded mass.>Alkaios: [The Outsider's Odyssey]Creates an ocean with the user and target on a ship, spawning powerful opponents he's fought in the past which strike at the vessel aiming to sink it into the abyss. However the user is randomly given a blessing by one of his gods which gives him protection from these blows and supremely enhances one of his techniques which becomes the sure hit effect that would be the most effective against his target.
>>93959252>Yue: [Liberation from Life and Death]Allows Yue to use the full scope of her abilities as the Empress, giving her the power and efficiency of a lifespan far surpassing her own. Consider the necessary energy costs to do this a part of a binding vow or Heavenly Restriction making it possible due to not being talented in any field this life as a trade off.>Zao Zhen: [Rising Sun, Falling Hammer]A weapon forge containing every weapon she's ever made which Zao can pull from to use, but that's just a distraction for the target to waste their focus on worrying about. As they find themselves in the center of the forge, they'll realize it's actually inside the barrel of a giant gun. The real effect is allowing the Flame-Spitting Lance to become sure-hit and ensure no one can escape her sight.>Hundan: [All Truths Lead to Heaven]A unique domain that gives the target choices between different treasures to fight the user. All but one are trapped, possessing some effect that hinders its usage and becomes a liability instead. If one does not to take one, instead every item becomes active to go against the target to punish their indecision.
>>93959252pretty sure that's missing people>whoidk, i just remember more
>>93959267Heart domains are expensive and poorly defined, most people dont know what they are.
>>93959267I'm just engaged enough to write shitty domains, but I'm too lazy to actually go through every build that doesn't outright have domain in their post to check. If they do have it but put it behind their rentry, too bad so sad, you get simple domain instead.
>>93959275that's irrelevant>>93959278i didn't ask
>>93959283demoted to hollow wicker basket.

>>93959275It's worded as an accuracy boost lmao
>>93959252Zhou Yun does too in his reentry but not on the thread post.
>>93959316Its only worded as a accuracy boost if you take the most narrow interpretation of it.

What's the verdict on our builds training and learning new things?
>>93959393Go or it.
>>939593931k words of kino for each extra point to spend.
>>93959411Bloat is never kino albeit.
>>93959393Training and such of course, but given how long mastering techniques and such usually takes it would be a long order to be utilising new moves in the time frame I expect us to be working in
>>93959449300 year timeskip kino when
>>93959449Depends on comprehension and perks.
>>93959465Technically I guess, but it's hard to justify the techniques section at all if your better if just putitng points into comprehension to master everything in moments.
>>93959480"Your techniques are mastered in seconds" doesn't seem to imply to me that you see something and copy it like Taskmaster, more like when you learn a technique you can instantly use it to the best of your ability and can realize its purposes.
>>93953521Finally got around to reading it, good stuff
>>93959579>FinallyNigga, it's the same thread.
>>93959585It's almost a day since it came out.
>>93959586Exactly. You have my permission to use "finally" when you comment on a writefag at least a week after it has been posted and I'm already being generous.
>>93959597I don't want your permission, it smells bad and frankly I don't know where it has been.
>>93959611I do, and trust me you're better off not knowing.
>>93959393Make it a small somewhat entertaining read and you'll get your points. Bloatmaxxing should absolutely be off the table, otherwise I'll just use AI to write this shit.
>>93959252Yana has Heart Donain, but I made a mistake and places it as Heart Force. My bad>The world within the blade she carries, it is the Spiritual heaven for all of those who wish to shed blood and get drunk on it. It manifests as an endless field of golden blossoms waiting to be painted red. This is the haven for her people, and now as the sole one of them, it is her solemn duty to carry the world of paradise on her wait.

>>93945866>>93865679>>Sins of the Mother (Mirror Devil, Flying Force):>https://rentry.org/wqnszs8kStyle wise, only minor complaints.I liked the "sigh" -> "Sigh" -> "SIGH!" progression, but the middle option was repeated, twice, so that irks me a bit, maybe making them differ more, like "sigh" -> "Sigh." -> "Sigh!" -> "SIGH!", or on the opposite unifying the thirst three ones, so only the fourth one would stand oud would work better for me, but this is just autism speaking.>BRINGAt first, I thought it's some display of his Quirk compulsion telling him to bring something, or that he's getting mind controlled, rather than just the sound of the phone ringing.>The Americans are anyway I’m sure.I'm not sure why, probably ESL reasons, but something about the tense in this sentence bothers me.Now for the contents.I'm still not a fan of 0. The near omnipotence of it sounds out of place for me. In canon there was that American's #1 Quirk which was also extremely broad and powerful, but still much more limited than what 0 is displayed to be. I still can't get over the moment where it was said that she could set atomic mass to zero or something close to that. That's a walking apocalypse, if Quirks like that are starting to appear, it's only a matter of time until one does something world ending before the user can be controlled. I do believe her scope should be restricted a lot, and until then, every mention of hers causes me to react negatively. But then again, I don't think I've seen anyone else complain about that, so it's probably just a "me issue".The image of Saraki sneering and skipping is rather unsettling.
>>93960669When Inigo counted people he could tell, he mentioned both Kaylee and Inigo, so I'm a bit surprised he didn't inform both of them either right away by making it a group chat, or by also writing to Inigo once he considered the possibility Kaylee might have lost her phone. But then again, he clearly wasn't at the top of his game due to stress. The presentation of how nervous he got, especially through those deleted texts, was to the point.Yes, Saraki's demeanour is definitely unsettling.The introduction of Kaiju wasn't something I was particularly fond of, but it didn't bother me as much as 0. Designating Grandpa Slow as the reason the Warlord Era ended does, however, intensify that feeling. But again, I think I'm in the minority here too.I'm surprised that Chris is surprised by the government wanting to have a contingency plan in case Slow turns against them, but then again, he's young.>“What are you doing?”>“… I was just thinking.”>“Ah!” Saraki nodded as if that explained everything that there ever was. “I quite sympathize!”Made me chuckle while also being oddly fitting for him.There are a lot of mentions of other characters in the mp, but they don't feel overshadowing. Just some nice little cameos.More of 0... Speaking of, if she's so powerful, wouldn't she work as a way to get rid of Slow? Just set the number of Grandpas Slow in the universe to 0.>“and so did your mother.”I liked that line.Hitomi is cute and useful.I'm slightly confused about what the spoilers are supposed to indicate. Initially, I thought they feel in style of Hitomi (mom) being displayed by Hitomi (dragon), but then again I feel like it might just be Saraki's subconsciousness.I'm also a bit unsure what conclusion led to Saraki smiling at the end of the MRI, and I'm not sure if it is supposed to be a secret yet, or if I'm just too tired/dumb to get it.
>>93945973It's finally finished. https://rentry.org/AgeratumChartWill be updated when any of the following conditions are met:>Another build is added>Anon wants to correct my entry to make it more accurate>Anon reveals who my Fated Rival is>Batudai Anon has a better Scam idea or simply doesn't like my current oneNow I am free... to the writefag mines.
>>93960672>“Stop apologizing you’re not a fucking leaf.”I'm not sure, but in this context, is it about Canadian apologizing a lot? Would Kaylee, who's from England, bring that up? Genuinely asking, I don't know Commonwealth's internal politics.Kaylee being dumb and proud of it is sort of funny.So, who knows about his memory issues at this point? Yui, Hoge, Imai, Inigo, Saraki and Kaylee?The ending scene, I think, would work if I wasn't prejudiced against 0 so hard. Any scene with her in the spotlight is soured for me, but once again, it's my personal issue.Overall, I'd say that among your writefags this is on the side of those I enjoyed less, but it's almost exclusively due tomy personal issues with 0. If not for that, I think it'd be pretty good, sothere is no reason for you to hate it. Thanks for cooking.
>>93960676nta, but I preferred when MHA was largely street level combat with some heavy hitters that can face tank a car crash or bust down a brick wall. Apocalyptic meta quirks, kaijus, quirk awakenings, and the general escalation of power were all things where I enjoyed the writefags in spite of them rather than because of them.Just wanted to share that you're not the only person that finds that stuff jarring.
>>93960600Hoardanon bro, you're forgetting Hoardanon.
>>93960947I'm not against all progression (obviously), and the Quirk Awakening we got imo doesn't really break the street level much. Orochi's regen got stronger, but only in the vague fluff level, and besides that she can now set herself on fire, other than that, the changes were to her psychology not powers. So that's basically just an extra Quirk. Certainly strong, but not world breaking.If kaiju were just a cameo about animals with Quirks that made them giant, I also would be fine with it.A Quirk that can instantly destroy the world if used at the wrong thing is frankly ridiculous. Not only due to the power level preference, but it also just stretches my suspension of disbelief with 0 not at any point before she was brain-washed thinking something like "I wish XYZ disappeared", about some broad category, like even let's say mosquitos. Her not really controlling her power was displayed with her comatosing her father.
>>93961059Really? Is Hoard just a self insert?
>>93960947MHA fell apart the moment Hori started introducing muh 7 quirks and New Order, so it's not surprising to see power escalation making things far more difficult.
>>93961140>New OrderAlita mp when?
>>93961107I suppose for me, quirk awakenings were a direct response for the class to meet the power increase Sandy introduced. Maybe I'm just overreacting. You're right that Orochi's awakening wasn't all that crazy. As for kaiju and apocalypse quirks, yeah, I'm on the same page there. I feel like if 5 year old me had that quirk, the world would have ended before anyone truly understood why, myself included.>>93961140Can't say I loved that either. What is it with shonen authors and completely fucking up their final arcs lately? AoT, JJK, Naruto, MHA, etc. I can't think of a multi-season shonen in the last decade that didn't go to complete shit at the end. Is it some kind of fucked up fad? Are the authors doing it on purpose so their publishers don't drag things out for another 3 years?
>>93961107>>93961229Nta but awakenings are fine and even cool depending on how the quirk evolves. I agree that Orochi's was goodAt the end of the day Sandy isn't that different from Afo or Shiggy. Bunch of quirks for big AoE attacks and physical enhancements, so even without awakenings he can be fought against using teamwork, tactics and support items.I think anons did a pretty good job at keeping things more or less gorunded while still innovating in some areas.The 0 quirk is on a whole new level of bullshit though, it really is absurd.
>>93961198after you let go of your bias and accept jumpchain into your heart
>>93961301Nah. If I wasn't lazy I'd rip most if the stuff from it though.
>>93961335>If I wasn't lazyyeah but that's never going to happen, realistically your choices are jumpchain or its never happening
>>93960669Yeah it wasn't my best.>I'm still not a fan of 0.She's an extreme outlier, like AfO or Stars and Stripes. I'm not very good at (or motivated by) powerfagging, so I don't typically think in terms of capabilities when I come up with ideas and that can get me into trouble when I stop to think what I just wrote, but narratively she's representing one of Chris's possible responses to a 'scary quirk' namely 'refuse to use.' She's one of the 'wrong answers' alongside Saraki's 'abuse my quirk.' To fill that role, she needs a quirk that's reasonable for her to be scared to use. For better or worse, it's what I came up with at the time.>I still can't get over the moment where it was said that she could set atomic mass to zero or something close to that.She actually can't do that. That was Chris's baseless speculation.>But then again, he clearly wasn't at the top of his game due to stress.Yeah, he's a little dumb atm, pls forgive him.> Designating Grandpa Slow as the reason the Warlord Era ended does, however, intensify that feeling.He designed Gehenna which gave the government a way to detain the warlords. Chris is being dramatic.>More of 0... Speaking of, if she's so powerful, wouldn't she work as a way to get rid of Slow? Just set the number of Grandpas Slow in the universe to 0.She can't. I haven't gone over her limits mostly because it doesn't serve a point in the narrative, but she can't affect immortals as their 'life' isn't quantifiable. So far her only limits are 'has to be quanitifiable value' and 'can't hurt herself or Saraki directly or indirectly.' More limits may come as they occur to me and/or are suggested.
>>93961402>I'm slightly confused about what the spoilers are supposed to indicate.They're voices. The source is still a mystery.>I'm also a bit unsure what conclusion led to Saraki smiling at the end of the MRI, and I'm not sure if it is supposed to be a secret yet, or if I'm just too tired/dumb to get it.It's not a secret. Hitomi's a seperate entity. She does things without Chris ordering her to.>Would Kaylee, who's from England, bring that up?No idea, the line made me laugh.>Yui, Hoge, Imai, Inigo, Saraki and Kaylee?Not Imai surprisingly, but I think the rest do.Thank you for reading!
>>93961295Yeah, like I said, I might have been too pessimistic. Our only awakening so far is Orochi, and it's not a problem.
>>93961360Nah, if I thought it would actually be successful I'd do it. It'd never succeed anyway so there's no reason to waste my own time when I could read more Mars Chronicle for my fix.
Buck up or Bunk up.

>>939614020 is just ridiculously overpowered to the point where her mere existence is logic breaking. Like that anon mentioned >>93961229 her not erasing everyone is already surprising, there being overall no wide-reaching consequences due to the lack of supervision as a child is just improbable. I did not get that far into MHA anime, and I haven't read the manga, but based on what I've heard about AfO and Stars and Stripes, their powers aren't "global" so to speak. Even if extremely powerful, there are restrictions to the scale and range of what they can do. 0 most definitely should have that too. "Quantifiable value" is too broad for that, imo, and by itself not enough with how broad it is. Even if we were to assume that an immortal's life is not quantifiable, something like "the number of Grandpas Slow" in this world is, and even if we moved that goalpost, there would probably still be ways to bypass it. Even if she was much more limited in scope, to the level of Stars and Stripes let's say (roughly: near her, has to be understandable, there is a limit to the strength of changes etc.) it would still be extremely scary, but not world-breaking. Again, just my opinion.>>93961412Is being a separate entity not relatively common among constructs? Like, Gigan also feels like one.Oh, Imai didn't? I thought he learned about it during the arc where he beefed with Mio and went to Chris for help, or just by reading Chris's mind, but just kept the secret. I guess I misremembered.
>>93961569I'm fine with those limits. Most of what has been said about her potential scale was meant to be speculation. Even Saraki didn't go 'let me stress test this quirk'>Is being a separate entity not relatively common among constructs? Like, Gigan also feels like one.Not sure. I thought they were supposed to be part of their users.>ImaiImai has never read Christopher's mind beyond communications.
>>93961596In short. I don’t need 0 to actually be apocalyptic. Just need her, saraki and chris to think she is.
>>93961758Normally, I'd expect them to realize that it shouldn't be that omnipotent considering she hasn't erased stuff en masse yet, but I could see Saraki in a way wanting it to be that powerful because that's what he finds interesting, and then running with that theory and causing the rest of them to believe it.
>>93961785No that is my fault. I wrote a really vague description of her quirk and didn’t think about the reader. I was focused on how the characters would interpret it. So they could be upset and scared. I never intend to have her use her quirk again anyway. Subject to my idiocy.
>>93960674Saya seems mostly right, she does have great social skills though. She's very calm and collected thanks to her contradictionary nature outside of combat. She has both Taoist Sibling and Battlefield Brother to make her not socially retarded like most of the battlechads.The rivalry is more ideological though I think for her. Zhimin seems like the salty one since she conceptually disagrees with everything that Saya enjoys and on a deep level in general with her Domain. She's just as much her Tao as she is her Heart though, she tries to avoid drawing her blade and giving in to the darker side where possible, just nonlethally using her sheathed blade like a Bokken and stuff. Tsune ni ite, kyu ni awasuRoughly translated her tao (Iai) means being constantly (prepared), match/meet (the opposition) immediately. So the primary emphasis in 'iai' is on the psychological state of being present. Its a very mental style of combat. Which doesn't strike me as that much of a comparison to our lionbro.
I'm seriously considering playing Yakuza games to learn more about Japan because everyone praises the quality of the series.What has this general done to me?
>>93962143Eh, it could be worse.
>>93959252Tora also has one but its very simple and I didnt make it as obvious as I could have. I don't think it translates to a Domain Expansion though since its just 'Will to Survive' its more of a Reality level innate technique maybe?>>93960674I didn't say much about Tora outside of their training I realized cause of this, which is my bad. Indeed she has Sudden Betrayal so she's less gullible than a lot of our cast. She does enjoy fighting and is willing to do it pretty much whenever, but she is more dedicated to all her training. From Qi to Soul. She's very lethargic and slothful but makes progress at an impressive rate (Except when compared to tao comprehension chads) as you said she wants to grow stronger because every part of her heart, soul, body and mind believe in survival at all costs, unlike her family and clan that died.She doesn't believe in holding back in a fight, hence ruthless warrior. Your enemies wont hold back on the battlefield so training as if they would is a waste. So as you can probably tell her views are pretty pragmatic and cynical. She wouldnt turn down challenges nomatter the danger. And would only focus on sparring a lot if it would be challenging her or the opponent appropriately to learn something.
>>93960674>Batudai Anon has a better Scam idea or simply doesn't like my current oneI added Batudai's perspective of that event to his rentry.

>>93960947That's just how capeshit works. Spider-Man has faced Galactus. It and shonen are always off the rails with escalation because they're geared towards dumb kids, so a shonen about capeshit is going to be especially bad about it.

>>93963053True, that would probably keep us from sliding off for a while.
>>93963035Let me try.
>>93963066Since I can post, I should be able to take it from there as long as you can get OP posted. In theory at least.

Erm, dummy?>>93963078The thread is up. You posted it.
>>93963118Le sigh. 4chan thinks the threadslaving post is spam for some reason so I'm trying to figure out why.
>>93963128Rentry links might need to be reformatted?
>>93963132I... I don't... This shit's so cursed... I don't understand... I can't even rollback to what we posted for this thread!?

>>93963078>>93963078>>93963078Hogs, we lost the build lists, but the next thread is still here.
So anyway, anyone got any countermeasures for the new spam filter? It seems that the anon in the next thread was correct. We can no longer post messages with large numbers of replies, which makes build lists kinda impossible.Do we give up on build lists? Do we get everyone to make rentrys for their builds? Do I get to spend an hour of my life turning all the build links into archive links?
>>93963661>Do I get to spend an hour of my life turning all the build links into archive links?It won't take that much. Mass replace ">>" with "https://desuarchive.org/tg/post/", fix occasional fuck ups, rebreak it into pages. I hink that's the best option overall. It will cost some character limit, but it will be most comfortable to use after. Even a bit better than the current option for those without 4chanx.
>>93963661Probably use archive links moving forward. Up to you if you want to convert each of the mp yourself. The big problem would be how much characters the archive link would occupy compared to regular replies.
>>93963680Yeah, I figured it was that or we switch to rentry links in mass. I was half fishing to see which one sounded better and half fishing to see if anyone had a third option.>>93963697So we've got a vote for each option... And yeah, I'm mostly worried about MHA. Adding 30-ish characters to every build post might be an issue. We've got like... What, 100+ builds? That'd be 2+ posts of bloat, which would be an issue... Though I guess I could bite the bullet and cull a bunch of builds...
>>93963750Other than the character limit, I don't think moving stuff en masse into rentry us a good idea. It's tougher to update, more probe to shenanigans, and less comfortable to use. In MHA's case, where a lot of stuff is already hidden there out if necessity, I don't think culling inactive builds is a terrible thing to do.
>>93963787>It's tougher to update, more probe to shenanigans, and less comfortable to use.How? You just link them like you would posts and it's easier if someone needs to alter their build since they can just edit it.
>>93963787Plus there's stuff like how ControlC links started to vanish. If it happens to Rentry links we'd be in a tough spot... I guess for now I'll do the archive links thing. If anons would rather switch to rentry links, we can always just swap out the archive links at that point.
>>93963836Ah I thought you meant the lists being in rentries only, not the the builds. In case if the former, it's that you'd have multiple rentries to update, codes, possible troll fucking stuff up, and someone to still maintain backup.In case of the latter, I guess it's doable.>>93963860Yeah that could happen. Currently they say they won't unless it's custom urls someone else wants to claim after a couple years if I remember correctly, but we never know what the future will bring. However, we'd probably be pretty screwed over in that case either way with how much stuff is there.
>>93911401Good evening. Apologies if this was a bit late.>A little progress on the writingFrom what I understand, you've been rather busy as of late. I wonder how you feel about the activity surrounding KtH?>or if I'll try to make some kind of frame to put in betweenIf you still want this random anon's opinion, I'd say borderless for intros, or story blurbs, and framed for mechanical stuff like choice description.Anyway. As for the actual update, suit section is almost done, but I got distracted and poured some time into another project. Did you get some non-KtH stuff done?
>>93963881Yeah, I literally meant that each build links to their own rentry, and we'd basically tell people to include a rentry with their build.Either way, for now I'll go do archive link things.>>93963888>From what I understand, you've been rather busy as of late. I wonder how you feel about the activity surrounding KtH?Mixed, but mostly happy. A little sad since I ended up watching the thread use an incomplete product twice now, but also happy just to see it get used at all.>If you still want this random anon's opinion, I'd say borderless for intros, or story blurbs, and framed for mechanical stuff like choice description.Makes sense to me.

You did something right if people are willing to come back to it time and time again. It's probably one of the better /mcyoag/ originals, so it's a good first attempt.>KtH kept me busy, sadly, but I'm happy to have some kind of productivityProbably doesn't help that some site changes were made just now, and you still have your threadslaving duties.If there's nothing else you want to talk about, like thread updates, new MPs, stuff about CYOAs, I'll go ahead and disappear for a while.
The pain of accidentally hitting escape right before posting a reply...>>93964040>If you've got a text editor like notepad++, you could probably use the replace tool to make it quicker, and then select which ever builds for MHA.I don't, though I probably could have found a similar method. Ultimately I judged that searching would take longer than doing manually.>It's probably one of the better /mcyoag/ originals, so it's a good first attempt.Most of me agrees. Honestly I'd like to get a few smaller OC projects under my belt and use that experience to come back and fix KtH up. Maybe slap a (Redux) on the title or something.>Probably doesn't help that some site changes were made just now, and you still have your threadslaving duties.Certainly not wrong.>If there's nothing else you want to talk about, like thread updates, new MPs, stuff about CYOAs, I'll go ahead and disappear for a while.Unless you're interesting in the current run of KtH, I can't think of much. Things have been really slow lately.
Alright, I think I've turned it all into archive links and I think I've shifted things around so that none of the threadslave posts will be over the character limit. I purged some MHA builds, but it was mostly builds that I don't think I've ever seen interact. Old builds like King Billy stayed since they were in a writefag at some point. Newer builds like Neutronium man were purged since I can't recall them getting any content of any form. (Hopefully I didn't accidentally purge someone who did stuff that I just forgot about).
>>93964120>Honestly I'd like to get a few smaller OC projects under my belt and use that experience to come back and fix KtH upThe dungeon crawler doesn't feel like a very small project. I'm kidding, of course. But maybe some solo-oriented CYOAs could be made to train some graphic design, or writing skills. Something along the lines of 3 sections with 3-5 choices each, but you max out on the design part rather than worrying too much about the balance side. If you do want to try different editing and format styles, you could make single section stuff similar to pill or waifu pickers just to check on what works.>Maybe slap a (Redux) on the title or somethingWhat would a KtH redux look like? Based on the recent runs, what would you change mechanically or fluff wise to better reflect the audience? Would you lean more on the xianxia inspirations, or try to make the new version more approachable to those with no experience in the genre?>Unless you're interesting in the current run of KtH, I can't think of muchI've not been very active at all, so technically anything about the goings-on of the thread would be something of interest. More of as a way to keep on chatting if you want that, though you are kinda busy right now, so we could save it for next time if you want to finish the threadslave update now.
>>93961785I like this interpretation.
>>93964442>But maybe some solo-oriented CYOAs could be made to train some graphic design, or writing skills.A little tempting, but honestly I really am here for the sake of mps, so my OC would reflect that. Plus the thing I want to gain experience for isn't just CYOAs, but CYOAs targeted at this thread specifically. Mid sized CYOAs were the basis for plenty of great mps (DE for example, and Worm is also a model case), so that 3-5 page range is my goal.>What would a KtH redux look like? Hard to say, really. It depends on what the experience I'd gain from other projects would teach me. I'm sure there'd be some basic things- certain Fated Encounters could use more love for example. If there's one thing I know I'd like to refine, it's the setting. Killing the heavens is nice and Xianxia-ish, but it's too broad and distant for the purposes of an mp. I feel KtH needs a more condensed setting with a more tangible conflict to engage in.>I've not been very active at all, so technically anything about the goings-on of the thread would be something of interest.I'm a proud member of team chatterbox, so I'm always happy to chat. Plus I just finished with emergency threadslave action, so I'm rather free for the next hour or so.Anyway, I've been enjoying the KtH run so far. It's still getting set up, but it's a lot more energy than I've seen lately. People talking in the thread, making dumb jokes that turn into little gags, planning out interactions. Not sure if I have any one thing to point to as much as that it as a whole feels rather comfy.Not sure what else to add... Is there anything you're curious about as far as thread activity goes? Doesn't need to be KtH.
>>93964620>certain Fated Encounters could use more love for exampleNTA but if you want my ideas>Sovereign Successor needs at least 160 points: Immortal Scripture gives effectively 80 (not including the fact that they're better than Grade 10) doubling that for SS should be more fair>Mysterious Mentor should give Divine Comprehension or something, to show that they "taught" you something instead of just being a safety net and Omachao>Spirit Inheritance is widely considered the weakest Talent FE, a different effect other than "permanent bond that hurts you" would help.That's honestly it, the rest seem fine.As for other changes:>The Cultivation Technique requirement "bug fix" (that makes the cyoa worse but you do you)>Maybe a 10 point circumstance you can pay to override Eccentric and let you upgrade them>Maybe even a Soul Scenery overhaul could be wanted>Increasing the amount gained from Fatal Flaw points to make the option even feasible: Mundane Mind should give like, 100 points if you don't grab Inherited Wisdom
>>93964620>I really am here for the sake of mps, so my OC would reflect thatThat's fair. I always feel like when I'm making something intended for multiplayer, it becomes bloated and overcomplicated. Adding too many sections, or too many choices so that each playstyle is somewhat represented when in reality, people will make characters around cool choices rather than walk into a new thing with something already in mind. I'd probably aim for 2-4 pages. It's kind of my sweet spot for something short, yet substantial enough to continually explore. And it could be used to train info condensation / delivery efficiency. I do wonder what else makes a CYOA more MP-oriented other than being a glorified character creator. I feel like we've been in this pattern of power picker + items + perks for the most part, but what else can be added, or remove to make people want to MP?>Killing the heavens is nice and Xianxia-ish, but it's too broad and distant for the purposes of an mpProbably some sort of scenario picker like worm that can also be used to modify the setting could help. It seems there are plenty of ways to take KtH depending on if you want xianxia or wuxia.>so I'm rather free for the next hour or soSadly, the thread seems to be ending, unless you want to bring this to the other side.>Not sure if I have any one thing to point to as much as that it as a whole feels rather comfy.Seems like a return to form, then. It's not necessarily about content output, but just general interaction in some way. All the writefags and artfags are just bonus rather than the norm. At least, that's what got me into worm 1 to begin with.>Not sure what else to add... Is there anything you're curious about as far as thread activity goes? Doesn't need to be KtH.Anything's fine, though like I've said before, we might not have the time. I've kind of rushed theis reply due to it being page 11.
>>93964741Don't know if I'd go that far with Soveriegn Successor, but it is one of the ones that needs a buff. Mysterious Mentor needs a mechanical beneift. Same with World seed. And yeah, Spirit Inheritance could use a different fluff ability. That's mostly stuff that was already on my radar. Basic stuff.The bug fix is also a thing, yeah.Paying to override a drawback is something I disagree with, so I've gotta say no to that one. I get why it's desirable- it'd make it easier to pick a background and not need to build a techniques around it.Soul Scenery fluff change... Yeah, I'm not against that. It's possible.Fatal Flaws giving more points is also a strong no for me. I wouldn't mind removing opt out to get points and just skipping to the special perks instead. I'm 100% firm on them not handing out huge amounts of points.
>>93964817>I'd probably aim for 2-4 pages.I could see it. Honestly It mostly depends on visual design choices, font, etc. One style's 2 pages is another style's 5.>but what else can be added, or remove to make people want to MP?Well, I'd like to keep pushing for history sections like KtH's life events, so that's one thing. Otherwise... Maybe some way to build the world? Like making the CYOA in such a way that every character created expands upon the setting instead of just adding a new face to a static city.>Probably some sort of scenario picker like worm that can also be used to modify the setting could help.Yeah, that's almost exactly something I was considering. One alt-setting I had in mind was that the Heavens has already won and cultivation society has declined, resulting in a more wuxia level setting where lorewise Mortal Savants managed to craft ways for humanity to hide from the heavens. So it's kind of like of like the Xianxia equivalent of post-apocalyptic, I guess.>Sadly, the thread seems to be ending, unless you want to bring this to the other side.Hmm... Tempting... Secret hours conversations are comfy though...>It's not necessarily about content output, but just general interaction in some way. Yeah, I think that's why I'm finding this run charming. Here's hoping anons keep it up.>I've kind of rushed theis reply due to it being page 11.Same, really.
>>93964883I don't wanna argue (unless I'm schizo I'm sure you're the author after all) but to show my point of view>Don't know if I'd go that far with Soveriegn SuccessorIdk, 160 seems like a perfect fix. It's already only 100 and terrible in comparison, that's barely over a 50% boost.>Paying to override a drawbackFair, but you could have it as simply another option. You have Eccentric which is free, and then you could have Super Eccentric (name WIP) which could cost 10 or even 20 and allow you to upgrade. Honestly it's something I don't actually feel strongly about so I don't care either way.>Fatal Flaws giving more points is also a strong no for me. I wouldn't mind removing opt out to get points and just skipping to the special perks instead. I'm 100% firm on them not handing out huge amounts of points.Most of them actually don't need a boost, but Abandoned by Fate could maybe need a boost, and Mundane Mind without a huge amount of points is literally worthless. I was thinking that you could do a treasure spam type with tons of soul stones and treasures who purely relies on them and elixirs. Would be a neat concept, but it's barely possible with Mundane Mind at the moment. Even going up to like, 60, would help. Removing the option to not take points at all would also suck, limits build variety. Not a deal breaker on if the cyoa is playable (lol) but I'm strongly against that.
>>93965011Nah, you're good. I get where you're coming from with these. As far as Soveriegn Successor goes, I think I'd rather find some kind of unique mechanical benefit for it as a supplement instead of just raw points. Like maybe it boosts Advantages, allowing people to double down even harder on being raw charisma / skill monkeys instead of using magic or talent stats.For eccentric... You know, I don't entirely hate the idea of a super eccentric perk... Maybe it could be something like:>Outsider: You lived in your Taoist roots and were taught their philosophy on the Tao, but your teacher wasn't a member. etc, etc.I'll chew on it.As for Abandoned by Fate and Mundane Mind, it's kind of the same story as SS. I could see looking for ways to make them more viable without their companion perks, that isn't just throwing more points at the issue. Maybe include other options elsewhere in the CYOA that pair better with those drawbacks and make the more viable that way.
>>93965088>I think I'd rather find some kind of unique mechanical benefit for itThat's actually a great idea and something I almost mentioned but felt not to was the idea of Fatal Flaws having a "choice" between multiple Special Perks. You COULD take Inherited Wisdom, or you could take "Heaven's Only Comfort" which gives you an "enhanced" Plentiful Wealth or a spirit stone second sense or something of that sort.But yeah, I would definitely agree that a different mechanical benefit that isn't more points would be nice.
>>93965140Branching paths for the fatal flaws... Hmm... Another thing I'll chew on. I don't hate that either. Not a bad idea at all.
Well anyway, that's my hour. This is when I go to sleep, so I'm off. Saber out.Till next time!
>>93964969Good morning. A second late.>Honestly It mostly depends on visual design choicesI've yet to try my hand at putting these words in a visual format, but I have tried to keep them relatively short and consistent in terms of character count. If we had to standardize it so that we're on the same page, I'd say around 2-3 sections per page, unless it's the dedicated power list page, which winds up to 3~10 sections in total, compared to maybe your 5~13-ish sections? Feels like a lot to work with if the space is used frugally. It's also important to take into account decision fatigue due to the addition of names and faceclaims for MP. Better to go with a little less choices so that anons don't get lazy by the end of the build, in my opinion.>Like making the CYOA in such a way that every character created expands upon the setting instead of just adding a new face to a static cityHow would you add that? Like, could it be done by having open positions in the setting be something you could choose? Choosing to be the magistrate, or abbot of a certain named city within the CYOA itself? I guess it's also important to integrate the world itself into the choice making, rather than have it be a separate part of the world that the characters can't see? I don't know. Rushing doesn't give me enough time to digest the proposal.>One alt-setting I had in mind was that the Heavens has already won and cultivation society has declinedI would imagine the ultra xianxia setting would take place in some sort of dream realm that acts as the hyperbolic time chamber for magic training, where the fantastical is common place.Anyway, I don't have enough knowledge in modern Chinese literature to contribute much on the setting idea, but that solution seems to be the way to go with how flexible the CYOA is right now.>Secret hours conversations are comfy thoughI guess it'll stay here then? I don't mind if you reply outside secret hours, though it might take a while for me to see it.
