The human kings continue partitioning amongst themselves the lands of the elder races, but even the patience of Hill Folk has its limits. The world is still wild and full of monsters, but due to greed and conflicting ideologies, the infant Witcher Order had recently split into multiple schools. However, despite the dangers abound, braves of all kinds band together to explore and tame these lands full of wonders and mysteries.>Rules-Fracture the Path is mandatory and free, you land in the year 990 in your chosen part of the northern continent-From Control the Chaos section, you get Lower Wish for free and may pick up Private Tutor also for free.

>>97121152The scenario ain't even finalized, but there was a little bit of interest.
>>97121139aint no one cooking anything these days brah
>>97121194Trve that witcher chud.
>>97121122This CYOA has a decent bit of content/options, but at the same time feels so... limited, somehow. What's up with that?
>>97121133If sudden inspiration struck you then feel free to try. But I think only 3 of us are left and I don't think we can keep it going like that. It's been out of my hands for a while, as much as I like it, new MPs started too fast.
>>97121122Since you posted it again, I'll start on a build and see where it takes me. I can't promise it'll fit into the single clan thing. That's for the cyoa to decide.
>>97121204It's make stuff up slop and not even the best of its kind
Imagine voluntarily wasting a build concept on a doa run
>>97121199how dare youi am a bloodborne chud and proud of it
>>97121122Creepy foreigner German (married in) uncle for the clan. Yes or no?
>>97121122We need a cyoa to shamelessly steal stuff from this one and kth to create the first good xianxia cyoa
>>97121204To be fair, it's an older CYOA that wasn't made with mps in mind.
>>97120868>Blue Eyed Souls, Act 3 (Momofuku, Alyona, Madoka, Parfaite, Renka, Belladonna, Fumiko, Sayaka, Itsuki, Mei)https://rentry.org/dga7tnnh>Blue Eyed Souls, Epilogue (Momofuku, Alyona, Madoka, Parfaite, Renka, Belladonna, Fumiko, Sayaka, Kanae)https://rentry.org/e7gb5c24plot bunny dealt with, now i can write for current eventsSayaka and Kanae anons, if you're not satisfied with how things went, I can edit stuff out. Kanae can be there solely as Madoka's friend, and Sayaka can be there because she lives at Kanae's temple.
>>97121133No one's posted anything for robots in like a month and a half or more, man. I think the threadslaves might have a concussion or theyre still recovering from thanksgiving food comas.
>>97121240KTH but we pretend all higher grades than 4 don't exist.
>>97121204It's because it doesn't know if it wants to be wuxia or xianxia. It gives xianxia expectations but then tries to ground you with wuxia settings.
>>97121240we'll get city-anon right on that
>>97121242That makes sense, it does seem to be from a different era style wise.
>>97121247Nta, it got a writefag literally last thread. I'm not saying it's super alive but if you want to complain at least don't be so blatantly wrong.
>>97121237Yes.
>>97121237no
>>97121237We don't need another hitler. I know what you're doing.
>>97121237yes
>>97121277He was gonna be Victor Frankenstein actually>he's Swiss/ItalianSHUT UP
>>97121237this isn't fate go back to waiting for the moon to be right
>>97121286I wanted to make science cultivator
>>97121269Goes to show how irrelevant robots are lol cause I sure as fuck didn't see anyone talking about it. Just another corpse on the ever growing pile.
>>97121289If you're serious about it prove it with effort. I'm pretty sure germany doesn't exist in that setting anyway.
>>97121244Their forces grow. Soon, they'll be unstoppable.
>>97121309You are still wrong. If the MP is dead as you say there is no need to beat it down, so why keep putting effort into that?
>>97121315>I'm pretty sure germany doesn't exist in that setting anyway.He'd be from a small far-western clan interested in strange alchemy that speaks another language.>prove it with effortI don't know what the clan would be named yet. Would an anon make his wife or should I make her as an NPC?
>>97121346>He'd be from a small far-western clan interested in strange alchemy that speaks another language.That's a good start.>I don't know what the clan would be named yet.I guess it depends on how heavy handed you want to be with the references. A random italian/swiss/german world related to alchemy could be good enough. If you're going for the family setup his main clan would be the MP one anyway. I don't think the anons will be convinced to make the science clan the main one at least, I think it could be fun but it would be a bit too limiting for the other builds.>Would an anon make his wife or should I make her as an NPC?I wouldn't count on that, but maybe. I don't think anything like that ever worked out.
>>97121336Because the threadslave is wasting space on it better spent elsewhere, and the longer all these dead MPs stick around, the longer it will take for the thread to coalesce into whatever the next viable MP actually is, because people will keep debating over whether or not something's actually dead for realsies. Also the shitposters will keep pretending to resurrect it to muddy the waters, further wasting space. Dead things need to move the hell on.
>>97121407Pretty sure anons have never tried tbqh.
>>97121407I meant the name of the main clan for the MP, not his lol. I don't want to be the one who takes the napkin for that.>I wouldn't count on that, but maybe.I mean it's supposed to be a family MP, so I thought I'd ask.
>>97121247There was a writefag last thread.
>>97121412>Dead things need to move the hell on.Why are you still here then?
>>97121435Ghosts don't count. If they can die again they're for all intents and purposes, not dead.
>>97121432And no one gave a shit, what's your point? >>97121435Waiting for something with actual viability to fire up. Same as half the anons in here.
>>97121346I will make you a wife, anon.
>>97121412>all these dead MPs stick around,And which ones are those? Because you make it sound like there are a lot more than there really are. it's only 2, and one of them is only 1 page so it doesn't "waste space" as you said.
I've got just the cyoa for ushttps://imgchest.com/p/qb4zk9xd4jm
>>97121456Ignore the shitposter anon. He just wants attention.
>>97121459Or an alternative if you hate beri cyoashttps://imgchest.com/p/xny89jwd4bl
>>97121459I would actually play this, it's one of my favorite cyoas and the peak of beruslop
>>97121446>Waiting for something with actual viability to fire up.So you don't consider any of the current runs alive. That makes you a shitposter.
>>97121452Clan name, personality? Or should I post first?
>>97121459>it's another borderline coomer adventurehow bout no
>>97121456>it's only 2mhafag or delusional witcher fan?
>>97121459>>97121465Good cyoas, but they wouldn't work well as MPs.
>>97121459>>97121465Bad cyoas and they wouldn't work well for MPs.
>>97121478MHA will never stop being posted. Arguing about it is pointless no matter what side you're on.
>>97121467You trying to fire shots at everyone now? Even I wouldn't say JITE is dead, but it doesn't qualify as something new and viable starting up since they're off in their own little isolated bubble.
>>97121478Probably just a driveby shitposter here to stir up drama for laughs.
>>97121496Yeah that's why we just point and laugh
>>97121496Arguing is all you have left, MHA-kun. You certainly aren't making posts or builds.
>>97121496Yeah whatever but I'm never going to stop reminding threadslaves that they're necrophiles pulling a hotw again
>>97121527And AMG(C?). Don't forget that one.
>>97121497Anon, you are using the word viable wrong. What you mean is that you are waiting for an MP you like personally, because all the current MPs are viable. Many are dead but they are all viable. Village is alive and viable, JITE is viable if you find a way to be part of the narrative, the fact you don't want to doesn't mean it can't be done. Matrial Path is viable, there is little interest but it can work. The only problem is that you don't like them.
>>97121122Convince me to not take Divine Spirit Foundation.
People keep saying it's ESLs or Indians or whatever making all these shitposts, but I can't help but observe that it's a little after 5 pm EST, and suddenly we have multiple anons in here carrying on. You assholes just get off of your McBurger job, crawl back into your mom's basement and hop online to rageie, wagie?
>>97121548I don't see why I should. Just do it, I was planning to do the same.
>>97121548it's cringe as fuck and everyone who takes it is a cringe powerwanker that we'll beat to death and not allow entry to thanksgiving
>>97121548I refuse. Take it.
>>97121556Thanksgiving already passed.
>>97121556It's not, it's just like the others. In fact it shoots itself in the foot by having suoptimal talents if you want to be powergamy about it.
>>97121554I was convinced of being a ragie wagie many years ago. I was an unemployed student, I just felt like shitposting around the same time.
>>97121568>convincedWeird, meant accusedAnons didn't use genjutsu on me (as far as I know)
>>97121556>we'll beat to death>stronger, smarter and their techniques are twice as stronggood luck with that buddy
>>97121415Last KTH run had a try at brothers. I can't say I ever saw a couple at MP start.>>97121426>I mean it's supposed to be a family MP, so I thought I'd ask.Fair enough, I just tought that was a bit too close of a relationship to try. It would be cool if it works.
>>97121546Sure, in a hypothetical world where we have tons of anons for all adventures, they're all viable. But you cannot say that they are viable in a practical sense, as no one is playing most of them. Some of them I like some of them i dont but who wants to be that one desperate idiot alone in a cyoa hoping other people will play. Also, finding a way to be part of the narrative is a cute way to gatekeep, i'll have to try that one myself later.
>>97121600>collaborative story telling os essentially the whole conceit of these threads>telling anon to tell collaborate on the story is gate keeping
>>97121600>Sure, in a hypothetical world where we have tons of anons for all adventures, they're all viableStill not what viable means. Also no matter how much you clamor for your own MP and how dead the thread is the other anons will not play something they don't like. Killing every single MP in the thread will not prevent you from being "that one desperate idiot" anyway because nobdy likes your MP.
>>97121472Xun Wan of Clan Xun, a Clan that were formerly sovereign before the Empire annexed them in the North. She's a cousin of the central line and was married to a rich/noble foreigner for trade purposes. As a noblewoman she had the time to study mathematics and become a skilled architect, but as a woman her designs for improved military fortifications were disregarded.She would probably like her scientist husband to be a ghost author for her fortification and siege weapon designs.
>>97121122How does purchasing perks work?
>>97121682Already answered, you just pay the highest cost. So Alchemy tier 2 costs 8 not 12.
>>97121682You pay the price of the level you want.
>>97121669Gotcha, I'm gonna have him be actually in love with her, up to you if she reciprocates or if he needs to woo her.
>>97121690That should have been written down. Speaking of, if the author is really here, do you plan to make a 1.0 at some point? SInce this one is 0.7
>>97121177Hey, anons. I kinda want to chat about some stuff, but I feel a bit guilty about not having caught up to the writefags yet before chatting.
>>97121720Feel free to ask whatever. I was thinking about starting a resource run or something in a bit anyway. Not that there is much to catch up on, I think it's all pretty short?
>>97121742It's not that it's long, but that it takes me a while to sit down and read something because I need to read the sentence repeatedly to understand it and my concentration breaks easily. It's not so bad with conversations, but it's at its worst when reading a story. I have read the first part of the wendigo, and did like the transport scene that shows off some of the strengths and weakness of other characters. I do have my critique with the chain itself though, but it's not related to the competency of the writing.Are doing an in-thread thing?
>>97121720>>97121742I kinda wanna write Fathoms investigating something, but I don’t know if she should be investigating magic in general, maybe with Liam, or doing some other useful investigation. I’d like it if she could contribute something unique>>97121791I’d be okay with that, sounds fun. I liked the last campfire interaction
>>97121705She would have mostly scholarly interest in his sciences at first, which could develop into genuine affection, particularly if he's attempting it.As a cousin I'm going Great Clan Branch for my origin, but whatever he is probably depends on his original social stature back home.
>>97121800Investigating magic with Liam sounds like the way to go, but it'd feel like it would be more of a mentorship than actually researching magic. There's also the option of exploring areas with Yaofan, or investigating specific plants, rocks, etc. with Mio.
>>97121260I originally made it in 2020 in a fugue. Should explain everything wrong with it.>>97121706No plans, no. Honestly, if I even started to think about it, I'd probably get hit with the revisionist itch and find stuff to change for the sake of changing.As it is, I'm fairly happy with where it's at for my first and only CYOA.
>>97121800If you want to kick off her character arc, one of the less emotionally intelligent players like Ito/GTC could accidentally let slip an NPC comment and lead to Fathoms asking around about it.
>>97121828I wanna make use of her 15% XP buff, I’d like it if someone could find that convenient for their own goals too. It might be more like a mentorship if Fifi works with Liam, but only at first, since I kinda wanna do a thing where Fifi says really intelligent things in a stupid voice eventually. Throw some gap moe in there as her int rises while her wis is still a dump stat
>>971218355 years is more than old enough to merit a rework, friend. I'm sure you can move far beyond where you were back then.
>>97121791That's a strange problem to have but I did hear of something similar. Take your time then, I don't think we are at a point where the characters are unrecognizable from how they started yet.Yes, I may not be the best to start it but it's a good idea. This MP was supposed to be more in-thread anyway.>>97121800>but I don’t know if she should be investigating magic in general, maybe with Liam, or doing some other useful investigationIf it helps, Liam was planning to research water magic and earth magic, to help with farming like she wanted. What would she find interesting enough to research? Basic magic is probably to boring for her, that's why Liam is trying to speedrun that so the others can research actually interesting stuff.> I liked the last campfire interactionMe too, it's nice to have that kind of interaction too.
>>97121852I'm not sure how the XP buff would help others, but it does give me a funny image of someone teaching Fifi a basic concept and then she suddenly starts teaching them advance concepts in the subject after being new to it only a few seconds ago.>>97121860>SpoilerJust try it. It might help if it's also somewhat of a prompt like asking about the current state of affairs, or their opinion on some things. I wasn't really thinking too hard about the campfire thing, but people will try to find a way to make it work.
>>97121860Water and earth magic seems just fine, Fifi does have the basic earth magic skill so she’s clearly interested in it. Water too, it might help her understand her summons better.For extra context, Fathoms doesn’t think of her summons as summons. They’re more like friends from the other side. Like, she’ll be in a fight and she’ll say “Mr. Darkfins! Fifi’s in a pinch here!” and a giant angler fish from the bowels of hell will swim out of the floor and bite into the enemy. To her, they’re actual friends she talks to, even if they’re eldritch creatures to everyone else. If she worked on water magic instead of just living in water, she might feel more connected to her mysterious friends because she has more in common with them now. Same for the more shadowy magics.
>>97121908I see the buff as being more a random encouraging thing she says that makes you have an eureka moment. Your version is funnier, it would be even funnier if Fathoms herself doesn't even remember what she said.>Just try it. It might help if it's also somewhat of a prompt like asking about the current state of affairs, or their opinion on some thingsI think I have something in mind, it's a bit simple but it would be surprisingly in character.>>97121959>Fathoms doesn’t think of her summons as summons. They’re more like friends from the other side.Lore wise she's not really wrong, they are supposed to be creatures that actually exist that answer the summon, you don't make them out of nothing. Of course in her case she does make them out of nothing. Liam would be inclined to treat them the same too, he's not put off by the appearance, he actually finds them cool, and he prioritizes power and exploit potential when judging creatures anyway.
>>97121835You still inspired me to cook a wuxia. Stand proud, you can cook.
>Guy trying to kill any hope of MP run is posting it in new threads too to parade its corpse and salt the woundIm never getting a MP run am I.
>>97122051At least one guy is making a build, maybe 2. And a couple anons have builds ready but will not post them unless someone else does first, so some interst is there.
>>97122051Shitposters don't get rewarded. Just because you went silent for a while doesn't absolve you.
>>97122051you would fraud anyway
>>97122098I specifically wanted to wait until we had a good slot for it to avoid that...Yamero
>>97121177>Liam stands on a makeshift podium made by random planks and some of his swords planted in the ground for stability, the structure creaks but holds surprisingly well. He starts talking into a golden metallic rod as if it was a micriphone, no changes occur to his voice."I apologize for suddenly gathering you here in this plaza. I am sure many of you have better things to do than hear my mad ramblings, but this is at least somewhat important.">The angel gestures into the air as if swatting away a bug of sorts, then starts typing on an invisible window."As I was about to go hunting it came to my attention that the village food situation has stabilized a bit, so have basic building materials. So my question is what do we need? We know where we want to go but not what materials could be useful to get there. I am mainly refering to monster materials, those tend to be my field, but general uncommon or rare resources are also a good thing to make stock of.After all if we want to make resource runs it would be useful to know what to priorize, we're not all Yaofan, we can't all literally carry the whole village.">Liam smiles to the small group, the does an exagerated bow."That's all, may the next speaker enlighetn us.">The podium slants to the side as the angel glides off to stand in the group.So, what cool materials do we want? Indirectly, what kind of monsters are around to take those from?

>>97122266Hailing from the outright miniscule and distant Western territory of Havelberg, characterized by its scholary people focused on the sciences, Heinrich is a humble yet brilliant and prestiged merchant's son who elected to travel Eastward with a small company of fellow merchants and scholars he organized to explore the world and find rarities. One of the first to actually introduce the concepts of his people to the East, Heinrich met with the cunning Xun Clan, which was one of the first to realize that trade with Havelberg could be an asset. Heinrich intermingled with the minds of the Xun Clan territory and told them of his people, and while some found him eccentric, and others found him appalling, it was undeniable that Havelberg had something to offer; rare herbs and metals existed in its lands, so trade would be beneficial. Although Heinrich had his fair share of detractors at home for a multitude of reasons, he had enough influence and wealth that a political marriage was put in order to bolster relations. He was introduced to Xun Wan, and was absolutely smitten with her. Not to say that she wasn't beautiful, but what truly enchanted him was her mind. Staying in Xun Clan territory, Heinrich seeks to uncover the secrets of the world, bolster the power of the Clan he's growing to love, and most importantly, truly win the heart of his wife. While he understands his place in the Clan as an outsider and that he should keep out of trouble for the sake of his people, he wishes to be subtly politically progressive as he believes that women can be just as talented as men (proven by his wife, of course) in fields of science, and looks out for the juniors, seeking to arm them with powerful weaponry and tools. Or, just possibly, "arm" them with something else..."Ah, Junior, hello! Uncle Heinrich has a new flying sword for you to test! 'Explode?' No, no, it won't explode this time! I promise! Besides, lost fingers are easily reattached! Trust me, ja?"
>>97122271I decided not to take any complications for points since I wouldn't spend them on anything and he's technically not part of the clan, but I definitely don't mind them existing.
>>97122266WHAT PART OF THIS ISN'T FATE DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND
Is it going to be one of those times where half the cast are going to be foreigners again?
>>97122170I wanna add to this, I just don’t really know what to expect with monster materials to give Fifi a good idea to suggest
>>97122405Well currently it's 100%, and then that could either stay at 100 or go down to 50.
>>97122405>>97122425I wanna make a character with the spirit dragon foundation who has clear dragon features. The CYOA seems very human-centric so even if I wanna make a cool dude with big horns and a tail and shit I’m considering just making a girl again and calling it a day unless I understand the lore/scenario better and get a clear ideaI probably won’t make anything until the MP gains traction, since at this rate it would be a tertiary focus for me.
>>97122463Fuck it, I got an idea. A younger guy, a kid with a mean streak who’s basically half dragon and has great potential, but still has a long way to go and a big future on his shoulders. I’d be designing him with the myth of the koi carp that swims up a waterfall and becomes a dragon in mind
>>97122419Standards RPG stuff. We are in the Forest biome with a bit of water and snow at the edges. So it could be a nature aligned deer that grows healing leaves on it's antlers, an earth boar with a pelt that can be smelted into a literal pig iron, some big fish that can swim in a bubble in the air that has a gland inside it that turns nutrients to water. Or just the claws of a really big wolf. That kind of stuff. Fifi is probably more familiar with the water animals, so maybe scales or fins with special qualities.
>>97121122>Xun Wen, the Lady of Fractalshttps://rentry.org/h8iq9mzp
>>97122463>>97122500I think we are making it so non human features are because of spirit roots and not being of a different race. So there is no problem with your idea.
>>97122539hot
>>97122558>>97122539Cool, but I’m starting to see a trend where people just make their techniques up. Is this expected to be the norm? Just wanna know. Also, this is a clan, but it doesn’t mean all these characters are gonna be family, right? I actually know very little about ancient China politics so I have no fucking idea how to establish that this kid is in the clan and even if he’s in training (which might make him the third low body build, maybe I should go low int instead to show that he’s immature?) he’s still trying to defend the clan and shit
>>97122463I mean what are women if not evil, treasure hungry beasts?
>>97122598Yes, you can make your own or use the listed ones, or customize a listed one to fit your clan or whateverIt has everything that KTH has but actual examples too so you dont HAVE to invent your entire build
>>97122598the cyoa is calvinball yes, everything is made up and the points dont matter. all weewoo chinese magic cyoas are like that you just do whatever
>>97122534>>97122170>Fathoms goes up to the podium, seeing as no one else seemed interested at first — Or rather, everyone was waiting on each other to break the ice.“Thanks a lot, Mister Liam! Fifi has an idea! You see, Fifi heard a looooong time ago about a golden river frog, agugu! Oh no, it’s not actually made of gold or anything, it’s just *really* yellow and *really* shiny. The golden river frog is special, agu! It makes a special oil on its back that can make metals stronger… Fifi thinks. If someone wants to help Fifi look for one so we can get some of that oil, Fifi thinks that would be really cool, agugu! Maybe we could make some really cool swords with that? Uh… Fifi doesn’t really use swords. But Fifi knows some of you use swords! Fifi wants to be useful, agugu!”>Fathoms looks around with shining eyes and a big, wide, stupid toothy grin, expecting the others to clap or ask questions.
>>97122630Every time you say "agugugu" all I can hear is that laugh noise Popeye makes.
>>97122649Okay that’s funny ngl. It’s actually supposed to be “agu” as in Agumon. That’s where Agumon’s name came from. I guess you’d say it like “aguuu~”, I dunno she’s a fish she’s clearly a little animalistic I thought giving her a catchprase would be endearing.
>>97122671I didn't say it was necessarily a bad thing.
>>97122682Nah, I wasn’t taking offence or anything. By all means this character IS pretty much comic relief.
>>97120980So i had writers block for almost a week, stuck in plots and subplots in my mind. Not knowing what path to take etc etc. But i got it on text finally.I mostly went in with the flow and what felt right, so if there's something that feels a bit off don´t hesitate to ask.https://rentry.co/it28vzx8
>>97122598>Also, this is a clan, but it doesn’t mean all these characters are gonna be family, right?You could be a direct Clan member, but could also be a branch member like Wen (uncles, aunts, cousins, etc.), a minor subordinate clan (the Minor Clan option), or a warrior/merchant/commoner who serves the clan.

Dwarves may like their long beards, but it's damn itchy. He's like a proper razor sooner rather than later."I hear something about iron boars?

>>97122758The king is dead, and we have killed him. Nice try though.
Anons are hard at work on their MP builds...
>>97123627I wanted to do MP so much but I feel like they jumped the gun with it, we shoulda waited for JITE to finish atleast.
>>97122539>>97121122>>97122266So were all Xun family or what?
>>97121122If you don't really understand how inventing techniques and items work cause you're not super familiar with xianxia or whatever it is, how bad is it to be mostly a stat brick with your points instead?
>>97123705Buy a hidden technique that says "I'm really strong" and you're good
>>97123705You want atleast a cultivation technique, you can have a lot of potential as a young teen but not realized it yet I guess.Items aren't really important but techniques are everything you have that it wont take you decades to learn.
>>97123667I think we're all supposed to be Xun family and Xun staff yeah.
>>97123705Make a True Divine Body Manual build, or a similar custom Body Refining technique. They're the kinds of techniques that read, basically, "+Big Physical Stats"

Did Irfan just got off-screened by some unnamed berserker that himself gets killed a mere moments agter without achievin anything else? When is this even supposed to happen, since the date at the end sounds more like Daerwyn's birth (1020 after conjunction is around 790 in standard so 200 before the base MP takes place, 30 years after humans' first landing)?

The berserker is meant to be my character Sucin Zatlath, facing the king with berserkers and vampires. And the elf king is in no way dead, he just fell unconsious. >When is this even supposed to happen, since the date at the end sounds more like Daerwyn's birth (1020 after conjunction is around 790 in standard so 200 before the base MP takes place, 30 years after humans' first landing)?It's meant to be a prologue, taking place centuries before.If you are the elf king, i remember reading somewhere that you wanted your character older? So i just assumed, with him being an elf and a mage, that he can live for like 1000years or something. The queen of Hiraeth described her character as young and you didn't so i just assumed.

>>97124419>pastebinLol, what are (You) even supposed to do if you pick the Awoken Tiger drawback?
>>97124444Run. Stall for time. Get some high level grannies and grandpas to shelter you. Level up faster. If needed flee the nation entirely and come back for revenge when you're older. Really just do anything but bumrush the boss like an idiot.
>>97124444Marry into the Jin clan by leveraging your insanely high talents and busted hidden techniques. Then the invincible guy is your backer.
>>97124122No?We can be sisters or something.
>>97124217She has one technique to be fair. She's basically a jobber by cultivation standards, absolute potentialman of a character.5 Body 5 Int 5 Skill 0 Techniques 0 Feats 0 Wins...
>>97124343Bodyguard in the more like, personal assistant way. Personal guard? They grew up together and she protects her but isn't the sole protector of her. Not the modern way.
>>97124582Nta, but it's funny you just assumed it's a girl.
>>97124260Wow that's a really short xianxia novel. Shouldn't take you that long.
>>97124605Really helps when each chapter is like 5 pages and 2/3 of the paragraphs repeat something you were already told.
>>97124217Talents don't grow tho? They are your stat tendencies, what goes up when you level up. This is cultivation, everyone grows.
>>97124604My last version of the concept was >>97122500. My idea is that this kid’s Spirit Foundation is unstable to a point where he was born with actual dragon features. He’s got a bit of a mean streak, he’s a little hermit who sometimes doesn’t feel human and takes more kindly to beasts. I guess having an older sibling would be pretty cool, he could look to her as the example of what he should be.>>97124591Honestly I only vaguely understand what “cultivation” is because I read >>97124419 but I’m having a hard time coming up with a cultivation technique for this guy. They’re basically techniques to strengthen yourself and meditate, right?
>>97124604Every Koi to become dragon character is a girl so its a fair guess.I took it from a novel I was reading not Anon but its not a very unique idea I'm afraid.>>97124352That's every build to be fair. Either you spend a lot on Perks, or Techniques, or Stats. I could lower them to 4 if people take offense, I just built it like our old MP characters. Would let me pick up the point tax technique.
>>97124623Yep, 0 body losers will stay weak forever unless they redo their cultivation and rebuild their bodies
>>97124628Cultivation is the thing that makes you not a mortal. That said there is Void hidden which specifically works good if your root is shitty and you basically just become a black hole instead of purifying everything.
>>97124623*Laughs in turning-talented-cultivators-into-pills.*
>>97124637No actually. Talents are innate. Even if you cripple yourself and start back over they'll still be the same. You were born that way and you'll stay that way unless something unexpected happens.
>>97124632>Every Koi to become dragon character is a girl so its a fair guess.Since when? And from where? I didn't see enough of them to say it's a rule and dragon stuff is like the most popular stuff in general.
>>97124623I meant that in the narrative sense anon, wouldn’t a person with a 5 in three stats be a super mega powerful expert who has little to no development left? >>97124632Every koi to dragon character is a girl? Is that an actual trend in these MPs or this genre of books? I was gonna make a boy because I just made a girl in Fantasy Village but I can reconsider. I didn’t necessarily take offence anon, but I thought someone with those stats would have to take a particular role as a mentor or something>>97124638Well, the idea is that this kid’s foundation came out wrong and he’s draconic now to a point where he might grow up to be more of a dragon than a person. Is that supposed to be impure? >>97124646Again, I meant that as in the “this person is an expert in 3/4 stats” sense, one would think she has very little training left
>>97124646That's why I added 'rebuild their bodies'Make a new stronger/smarter/more talented/perceptive body with your heaven/hidden technique and transfer over to it
>>97124654https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/104542/immortal-paladin This is the one that gave me the idea. The gist is that the MC picks up a Koi from a rigged carnival game run by an Elder after losing like 800 times despite his bullshit abilities.Koi actually has insane talent and grows up and becomes dragon loli or whatever. I don't remember exactly.
>>97124670Spirit beasts tend to become loli's eventually after becoming pets
>>97124628"Cultivation" is the mystical process of absorbing the life force (known as 'Qi') of the world/heavens and making it your own in an effort to spiritually and physically fortify yourself, with the traditional goal of attaining immortality/Sagehood. You do this through esoteric breathing practices known as 'Cultivation Techniques' which represent the original Chinese medicinal/alchemical practices that were initially pursued for that goal.>>97124646Talents can be reforged/remade, but it's complicated.
>>97124659>wouldn’t a person with a 5 in three stats be a super mega powerful expert who has little to no development left? No. In fact it's the exact opposite. They have the most development left. Think of it like a poorly balanced tactics game. You start at Lv0, and can reach Lv100, but what you get when leveling up depends on your talents. So someone with 0 Body might get a single 'point' of strength and speed. Even at max level they cap out at 100. Someone with 5 Body might get like 10 'points' per level, meaning they have 1000 points worth of growth to look forward to instead. Talents aren't a trade-off, you're straight up built better from the day you're born to the day you die.>Is that an actual trend in these MPs or this genre of books?It's not. Anon was either reading something really weird or he's fucking you.
>>97124659Don't change cause of that, I was just using hyperbole really. You can be her brother if you want, or entirely unrelated in a cosmic coincidence. Its more her cultivation that is koi-dragon related not herself and it sounds like you're more directly related to it anyway.The stats are all relative to your current level. So a 5 means you're heaven defying in that you could punch up in that talent maybe even three levels within your realm. Like from 0% to 75% through the realm. Which is a big deal.Its not enough to beat an elder, just the cocky young master a level or two above you.
>>97124682Nono I understood that, but basically a cultivation technique is the way your character meditates and develops, right? Because there was another woman that could essentially absorb people into her cultivation, isn't that technically an attack? It read like a JJK domain to me>>97124695>>97124696Oh okay, that makes sense. I think it'd still be cool if they were related somehow, I might make him Ri's brother after all just to have some duality if you're okay with it anon. It'd be cool to have very diametrically opposed characters who are similar in some ways and can help each other out on their journey.Yeah I should think of talents less like stats and more like potential, makes sense
>>97124696To continue this, Every main character in every cultivation story basically has atleast two stats at 5, if not all four. Because otherwise it would take literally hundreds of years for them to get anywhere on the power scale of the world.Doesn't mean you have to, just that's whats typical of a main character. You can be a normal denizen who isn't going to rocket up a bunch of tiers in the span of a decade and then get slapped by The God Emperor Saint Slayer Demon King of the Ninety Two Heavens. The biggest qualitive difference in our builds to the normal everyday person in the world is that we have access to cultivation techniques that are insanely better than them. A hidden cultivation technique is the kind of thing that gets your home town blown up and resurrected and blown up again until they teach it to the guy who wants it. Even a heaven one is pretty insane and might get your family hunted down if its a good one. The best elders in the CYOA have Heaven cultivation skills as their ultimate ability and Earth as their standard.
>>97121122What happened to giving a short description of your character outside of the rentry? Is it just out of style?
>>97124721Works for me, maybe his Inkbound Cultivation had an issue or was unfinished due to the attack and instead of forming the Ink Dragon he became the dragon himself due to a Qi overload or something.
>>97124736Anons are trying to bump their rentry views stats.
>>97124729Okay, makes sense. I was thinking of trying to have at least one 5, maybe 2 at most. I wouldn't want to dump one stat entirely though>>97124737Reading more about her, it works perfectly for them to have grown up with artists since I was considering having my guy be a musician, maybe he uses his erhu to meditate or something. >maybe his Inkbound Cultivation had an issue or was unfinished due to the attack and instead of forming the Ink Dragon he became the dragon himself due to a Qi overload or something.So would I have to include that he knows it too? Because I was gonna have him be more music-inclined, maybe he turned to music because he fucked up with inking techniques so much?
>>97124721>basically a cultivation technique is the way your character meditates and developsOh, yeah. Basically the methods you use to process the Qi. It can get really wild like eating other people and devouring their cultivation to fuel your own, yeah, but it's normally more of a passive alignment buff giving you certain attributes and traits because of how you absorb and process Qi. My character in the original run, for example, used the Yin Mist Veil cultivation technique, which aligned him with attributes like Mist, Water, Illusions, Darkness, etc, and incidentally was in the process of killing him due to a poisonous overload on those traits because of his special body physique, which involved cyclical inversion between attributes of light and dark, heat and cold, etc.
>>97124746>So would I have to include that he knows it too?Nah, I just was giving a reason he went the way he did despite potentially having learned the same techniques.
>>97124659>wouldn’t a person with a 5 in three stats be a super mega powerful expert who has little to no development left?No? Talents are relative, xianxia is a ladder. 5 Body makes you very strong in your rank amd maybe strong enough to punch up a step but you are still weaker than someone with Body 5 but higher tier. In pokemon terms Talent is your nature and IVs, you have higher stats at the same level but you are still a level 10 baby compared to the level 100 elder, just that xianxia has no level cap and the difference between one level and the next is a lot bigger.>Is that supposed to be impure?If it impacts his personality yes. Arguably yes in general but that's more relative.>>97124670Most animals tend to become girls around MCs, regardless of what they were before.
>>97124759Makes sense. Maybe when their dad taught them the technique, since he taught them in a rush, due to his spirit foundation being unstable and him being so young he absorbed the ink into his system and started developing into a dragon directly. He wouldn't use the technique anymore after that, so I probably wouldn't list it in his techniques since he'd develop a different one>>97124768Oh I see what's going on here. Monster girl harem
>>97124773>Oh I see what's going on here. Monster girl haremMost MCs have the invisible luck stat maxed out, so they just tend to gather a harem, regardless of what they want. It's full of MCs that either actively avoid the harem they gather as well as the ones that just ignore it, and those that are more anime like and just fail to recognize they have one. Monster girls are not as common, but they are there, mostly foxes and dragons with some dogs and cats.On that note, dragons are the most popular route to go so I am thinking really hard about making a character that is a less standard animal spirit, I may have to go for something I made up.
>>97124768Based on the descriptions in the CYOA, Talent 4 is, ceteris paribus, roughly equal to Talent 1 in a higher realm in terms of battle power.
I don't have all the time in the world because I have to finish an assignment but here's a sketch of the guy. He might use a spear or something
>>97124829It feels a bit more complex than that, the wording makes it sound like a high enough talent in one stat is enough to make up for having lower ones, so it's more like Talent 4 in one stat is equivalent to someone one tier higher with Talent 1 in everything. Following your version, is Takent 5 then equal to 2.5 for a higher tier?
>>97124345>>97124323>>97124067>>97122758You seriously writing stuff for a fraud anon who flaked out of a dead MP? This is advanced necrophilia son, put down the rotting pelvis and get your hands in the air. >still better than robot anons though
>>97124859Notice the "ceteris paribus" part.The exact scale isn't give, so we can't exactly talk about ratios based on RAW alone, but talent 5 is described to be enough to easily surmount a realm of difference in battle, and talent 1 is the average.To be honest, the cyoa itself is pretty much logically contradictory, because it describes talent 3 as enough to fight "at least evenly" ANYBODY in the same realm, and that taken at face value would have some really odd implications.
>>97124906Just assume it's talking about an average cultivator of that realm with mostly ones across the board, maybe a 2 somewhere, and with earth rank techniques/treasures as their highest tier stuff
>>97124904>still better than robot anons thoughNta. It's the same guy as the robot writefag. The other robot anons look like they gave up too.
>>97124906>To be honest, the cyoa itself is pretty much logically contradictory,It kinda is, but that's also what the genre is like as well. Everything is the strongest until it's not, perfect defense is perfect until it's not anymore, that kinda stuff. It's pretty much impossible to balance properly.
Changed my mind, he fights with innate draconic martial arts techniques and an erhu for music attacks and cultivation. Might give him Tamer to give him a shisa/komainu dog that can talk to him and be a confidant of sorts beside Ri.
>>97125043That thing has so much space to put tattoos on.Were gonna make a cultivation world equivalent of a tank.
>>97125335>How many protective wards does your dog have to prevent it from dying for character development?>Its fur was white when we found it
>>97122266>>97122539Are these the same anon?
>>97125335If you know what is then it's pretty much already that. It's a myth creature that is supposed to be dragondog made of stone, specialized in guarding and protecting. So if you put protection on top of that it's a double tank.>>97125339It could also already be dead. I'm pretty sure one of the legends about it is that sometimes particularly loyal dogs turn into that after they die. Nta by the way, just the resident myth fanatic.
>>97125335I mean it’s a rock creature so it can probably get tattooed or painted on, yeah. Might have to include that on my final design
>>97125335>>97125339>>97125374But the question is, can it cultivate? Because if it can't then it's gonna be useless after a while.
I need an idea for two McGuffin Heavenly Treasures that the Cult might want.
>>97125371What makes you think they are?
>>97125386Doesnt the inkbound stuff kinda cultivate/scale on Ri's cultivation? Since it uses their Qi and stuff it would get stronger as they do.
>>97125411Nta but all the builds looked like they were from the same person because they were posted all at the same time with just the rentry and nothing else. Ididn't have time to read them yet so I don't know if they have the same style but it felt very strange to seuddenly have 3 builds when people barely even recognized that as a real MP.
>>97125425Heinrich and Xun Wen were talking about making their builds last thread, the other two are new but if you told me Ri took one of their old builds that were lying around and changed some lore around, I'd believe it.
>>97125425They firs agreed to be married. When I connect my build to another, I sometimes alter the build style to match.
>>97125415I was talking about the base creature, if you have an external way to make it scale then I don't know, but most techniques do scale to the tier you are at least.
>>97125439I made it like we made our old builds, but its not adapted no.
What was the consensus on complications again? Since they can be shared
>>97125539Generally speaking, the default is: Stars of Destiny (the multiplayer option) + Insidious Cult and Ghost Domain. You can skip the points for the latter if you don't want them, but they're still happening in the background. Adding other global complications sounds like it'd complicate stuff needlessly, so it might be better if you don't take them. The more personal ones are likely fine. Since it's generally a clan-run, Destroyed Clan seems inappropriate in most cases.
>>97125552>Destroyed Clan seems inappropriate in most cases.I was about to say that you could make a refugee of a destroyed clan but then people would scream about free points because you would ignore the drawback by losing your clan but being part of the MP one anyway. So I guess there is no way to make that work.
How many elements can one guy have? Do you have to base all your techniques on one, or can you have one water attack, one fire attack, etc?
>>97121122So for Hidden Techniques, you have to first pay the perk cost to unlock the ability to buy it and then also pay the 9 points to buy it?
>>97121122Do you need to buy the hidden rank perk if you can elevate a technique instead of buying it? Actually do you even need to buy the techniques you plan to elevate? Do you pay the base cost or the upgraded cost?
>>97125586We have people from a destroyed clan who did not take it so far (Or atleast, Ri didn't)If you take it with warrior you're a powergamer since that's what we did in the first run, if you pay for noble stuff then take it then its not as much of an issue because you're wasting points then. At best breaking even probably?
>>97125637How many you want/can afford. I might be misremembering, but I think we had someone in the first run that had natural insight for all five main elements.>>97125660Yes.
>>97125667I'm making Ri's younger brother, so I might have to wait for the anon to answer before I pick it or not. I'm not the type that picks a trillion drawbacks to be OP, I like drawbacks when I can use them as part of a story and they give me just the points I need to buy whatever I want to buy.
>>97125668Correct, I was that guy.
>>97125637You can use whatever techniques you learn, you only are elementally aspected to a dangerous degree if you specifically have a root of that element which would make opposing elements harder. As the other anon >>97125668Said we had a guy make a 'Five seasons' cultivation style then take all five main elements as his insights in the first runs.>>97125660Yes>>97125666Elevating would be a post-chargen thing and covered in writing in theory. Usually not something we deal with, just that it exists in-lore.Otherwise we could take a bunch of Earth techniques to ascend as soon as we started.In previous runs people did buy a technique at a higher rank than listed though, if that helps. For example one of our Kitsune-Types had heaven tier Aura Concealment and hidden Myriad Stride. They just changed the description a bit or flat out upgraded the existing technique by paying more.
>>97125667>If you take it with warrior you're a powergamer since that's what we did in the first runWhat? What's warrior? It's not an origin.I wasn't thinking of taking it, I was just trying to see if it was possible to come up with a plot reason for it. Actually, do we all have to take the clan origin?
>>97125703>What? What's warrior? It's not an origin.There's only four of these, how'd you miss it?
>>97125682I would say you could pick Destroyed Clan specifically because your backstory involves it directly harming you by not getting your clans signature technique done right, I didn't do it for mine because while the clan died, she still basically got all the clan stuff (Without the discount for being a clanner)Up to other anons though.
>>97125699>Elevating would be a post-chargen thing and covered in writing in theory. Usually not something we deal with, just that it exists in-lore.Why add it then? Why add a bunch of stuff that will never come up?
>>97125703There's four origins. Two of which are compatibile with destroyed clan (Warrior and Noble)
>>97125713Because fluff and knowing it exists? Also MP wasn't designed for mutliplayer originally.It'd be lame if we couldn't level up at all in character. Its just as a general we rarely do much leveling up.Infact I think MP was the first one to have any of it, with some people leveling their techniques/realm through writing.
>>97125713You might be forgetting that most cyoas weren't made with our form of multiplayer as the main mode of play.
>>97125699My guy's cultivation style is music-centric. In terms of combat techniques threw in a water technique, a fire technique and a wind technique, because I like variety. >>97125709Eh sure, Jian (that's his name) had unstable Qi and he didn't have as much painting practice as Ri, so the tattoos were fucked up. He instead learned to use the principle of the technique with his erhu playing after being adopted by the Xun clan, since with a few more years of practice in an art he loves made him capable of adapting the technique into something new. That's more or less my current idea
>>97125717>>97125718Honestly, if that anon would give it a general refresh and more polish towards being an MP, I'd play.
>>97125706Please understand, reading martial path or anything xianxia inspired saps away your reading comprehension
>>97125727I mean, MP is the literal perfect setting for having timeskips with meaningful development. We could actually have a timeskip of say 5 years and everyone get more techniques and stuff and develop the plot.The problem with this originally when we ran MP was that it made potentialfags overpowered and nobody wanted to do it because of that.But as long as we dont raise our cultivation realms its probably fine to just give people more points and ignore that some people should be getting more.
>>97125717>Because fluff and knowing it exists?So for nothing then. If it's just fluff don't make people pay points for it.Not having progression at all in a genre that revolves around that is also a very dumb thing but that's a problem with this place not the cyoa.
>>97125709>>97125720Hey wait, I just realised, Ri's origin is Merchant so isn't that already incompatible with Destroyed Clan? I'm just checking because I'm gonna have to put in the same thing
>>97125727KtH was pretty much an attempt at that but by a different anon.
>>97125744>The problem with this originally when we ran MP was that it made potentialfags overpowered and nobody wanted to do it because of that.This place has a problem with letting people use the stuff they paid for.
>>97125748Yes its incompatible. Though I considered the other origins at first.Noble and Warrior are the only ones with Destroyed Clan so if you aren't picking one of those then you can't take it. You could take basic level Noble with that backstory though, you aren't as good at the family trade afterall.
>>97125744What makes a build a potentialfag?
>>97125706>>97125715I just saw that I was using the old version of the cyoa with only 3 origins and my build fell apart. I don't know if I feel like starting over now.
>>97125761I'm making one right now so just wait a bit, I'll give you an example soon
>>97125761Lots of 5s, Innovative 1 and 2 especially, Techniques to upgrade, high tier roots.Basically investing in your future more than the present. In this case it would also be called 'Being genre savvy' because anyone with any genre knowledge is gonna do this stuff.
>>97125765Wha? You weren't using the one in thread?That might be the only major change. If you post your choices I can take a look.
Rolled 3, 3, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 2 = 16 (8d4)Don't mind me
>>97125761Spending points on options that will give you power later rather than now. So high Talents, Innovator, high Skill and Inteligence, Insight that makes you grow. Also some people will lump in crafters with them too, so add Alchemy, Item Refining and Taming.
>>97125768>In this case it would also be called 'Being genre savvy' because anyone with any genre knowledge is gonna do this stuff.And punishing people for it is really dumb.
Rolled 6 (1d14)>>97125783don't mind me either
>>97125768What the fuck is a root? You mean the foundations? Thanks for telling me though, I'm trying to make a potentialfag
>>97125774It's annoying to keep scrolling back and forth to both keep trach of the thread and read the cyoa so I usually open the cyoa in a different window on imagechest. This time the imageches version was not updated.>That might be the only major change.Takents also cost 6 to raise instead of 5, I think that's more major than the new origin. Also the clan origin, now noble, cost more per tier. Both of those things affect my build but I don't know how much yet.
Rolled 3, 2, 1 = 6 (3d4)>>97125783Forgot something
>>97125786>>97125768That does sound like the most logical choice to make. Like if we actually had to *live* as our characters, you'd pick that kind of build every time since you'll always lose to them if you don't. I guess that makes it the meta?
>>97125806>What the fuck is a root?Nta, that's what KTH calls fundations. It's also a term used in the genre in general.
>>97125786Name: PotentialgodRegion: YoursOrigin: WarriorFoundation: Divine Spirit Weapon Foundation DualSkill: 5Int: 5Body: 5Perception: 3Perks: True Will, Dual Type Spirit Foundation, Innovator+, Hidden Technique, Insight: AstrophysicsTechniques: Pure Yang Ascending SunComplications: Destroyed Clan, Target on your Back, Ghost Domain, Stars, CultItems: Pure Qi Condensation Pill
>checks thread>high power anons finally won>mudcore games all deadShonenchads stay FVARKING winning as always
>>97125833>I guess that makes it the meta?In an MP there should be no "meta", it all depends on what kind of character you want to make and punishing people because they made that specific one is dumb, especially since it fits the world too. In singleplayer yes, it's the meta.
>>97125833Its basically getting the option to skip 1000 years of closed door meditation for every high rank. Innovator at level 2 is absurd in-universe. Techniques can take decades to learn but you can pick it up in like a week.If you know how large the timescales are normally you'll see those options and think they are mandatory to not be a jobber to elders. But only KTH actually has Elders to job to as a relevent thing that isnt a companion, and KTH makes realms irrelevent anyway.In multiplayer we don't really do progression so its all 'Potential' that wont be realized so its not actually optimal. Optimal is to get a bunch of custom techniques that work well together and buy some bullshit items that let you punch up tiers and then just taking 2 or 3 in the stats.One of the strongest builds last time was like, 2 5 2 3 or something
>>97125834>>97125806Spiritual root, its a genre term, but yes foundations.
>>97125850Actually MP is the mudcore of the genre. Were only like a step up from common bandits and on par with a bandit king.
Mortal Chudvants (shut up they exist in MP) turning potentialmen into pills because they're the narrative potentialmen with literal asspull plot power that can do fucking anything...>>97125887World ran by Bandit Kings MP when?
>>97125898When we're brave enough for the new HOTW update.
>>97125848We could get rid of insight but that will let us evolve Pure Yang Ascending Sun into Qi Supernova Black Hole using Astrophysics knowledge as we rank up thanks to innovator and our stats.
>>97121129If you did a farmer origin character with Natural Insight: "Cultivation", what would happen? Cause I find it kind of funny that you can do a play on the two meanings of cultivation in this setting, the tending of the earth and the growth of the soul being the same word.
>>97125881>In multiplayer we don't really do progression so its all 'Potential' that wont be realizedWhich is dumb. Why play a cultivation setting without the cultivation? It's like playing naruto but nobody can use chakra or or one piece with no devil fruits and no haki.
>>97125900Ok im gonna need you to quit teasing my science boner here anonYou know i love shoving science into every cyoa regardless of if it makes sense or not in setting
>>97125901There's stories about that yeah.Its a pretty easy way to make money too since you'll be able to grow the Golden Spring Dragonroot of Death and Destruction in a random pot instead of once every 999999 years when a dragon dies in its lovers arms. Not to say its overdone, just that its a thing that you can do yes.
>>97124729>A hidden cultivation technique is the kind of thing that gets your home town blown up and resurrected and blown up again until they teach it to the guy who wants it.Alright who's gonna make the Hidden Cultivation Hydrogen Baby for the Xun Clan so we can really ruffle some feathers
>>97125909>One piece but no HakiYou mean objectively a better CYOA?That said we can always timeskip later and give everyone points. I think we maybe did that in the OG? Or im thinking of some other MP.
>>97125909>it's another powerlevel-anon episodeMeh
>>97125901Feel free to try, I think it's inetesting. There are several mangas/mahuas or whatever the chinese ones are called with a similar concept.
>>97125909Fuck yeah Rokushiki MP
>>97125917Were probably going to have multiple judging by previous runs where 90% of characters had one.It was a running joke that all the ancients and old monsters were shitting themselves about a sudden generation of 20 year olds with insanely powerful cultivation techniques they had never heard of showing up.
>>97125927>>97125915That explains the "plant growing" half of it I think. What does it do for actual cultivating? Is it just a flat booster, or is that too overpowered?
>forgot about difficultyguess I'll redo my build...
>>97125900>>97125914The Xun clan so far is made up of literal geniuses in at least some form of cultivation science anyway with the 'stupidest' still being a potential greatest Tamer ever with Tamer Insight. Wank science as much as you like. We'll have flying cars by the Xun dynasty.
>>97125942>What does it do for actual cultivating?Not a damn thing. At best you could use the herbs to get powerful pills to eat, which could indirectly help you grow stronger faster. Homophones don't get you any kind of advantage, and they aren't at all the same kind of 'cultivation'.
>>97125918>You mean objectively a better CYOA?Also no devil fruits. They are both iconic parts of the setting and getting rid of them makes playing that setting useless. Just play a random pirate cyoa then.>That said we can always timeskip later and give everyone pointsGood luck with that. We already have this stuff >>97125924By the way, why do you want to play a cyoa about a setting where progression is the main factor without the progression? Nobody answers that, they just shit on you for knowing how the setting works.
>>97125947Difficulty?Huh?
>>97125959Ah, that's a shame. The homophone was indeed pretty much the entire point of that idea.
>>97125959>HomophonesWhat is that?
>>97125969Your Skill and Intelligence have to sum up to the Difficulty level of a technique
>>97125976>Homophones"each of two or more words having the same pronunciation but different meanings, origins, or spelling, for example new and knew."Like "here" and "hear" or "Whole" and "Hole".
>>97125959>>97125972>>97125942You visualize yourself as the plant you are cultivating and water and care for yourself, pulling out the weeds (Impurities) and pruning the dead leaves. it'll be a slight but tangible qualitive boost as long as you go all in on the mental imagery while building your foundation and stuff. Its called a 'Dao' and usually is higher level stuff where you embody a concept and base your cultivation around it. Its a more major part of KTH because KTH is higher power than this, were not expected to have a Dao at this level.Its more technique-related usually though, so you would get a bonus to wood techniques like growing a Plants Versus Zombies peashooter mid combat to pelt someone way easier and stronger.
>>97125991Or sum up to one less than the difficulty if you're a clan member.
>>97125957Arguably Moyu is smarter than Ri in the sense that she's better in her craft since their craft talent points total 5 (4 + 1 and 5 + 0) and she has a useful insight while Ri doesn'tRi does have the Merchant boost tho and is better at learning
>>97125991Usually not a problem but I can see why you might struggle yeah.Can't really be a dummy and still use hidden forbidden techniques. There's a reason were all geniuses.
>>97125976When two boy phones love each other...
>>97125994Yeah but at that point literally every single natural insight would be a cultivation booster. It's not like being a plant tending expert is uniquely suited to it.
>>97125976It means you're scared of gay people.
>>97126001This is dummy discrimination!
>>97126007Correct.They are.
>>97126000I don't think that's how that works.Perk level 2 Is the best you can be unless you're a Merchant then you're even better than that.Everything else is just modifiers not actual skill.The two (?) merchants are on the same tier in their respective skills while the non merchants are below them.
>>97126000To be fair Physician is pretty useful for what Ri is doing.
>>97126001>>97126010Inherited Wisdom bros...Inherited Wisdomchuds are just cringelords who don't fully engage with make-stuff-up-slopkino anyway.
Good night Anons I love you
>>97126022>Everything else is just modifiers not actual skill.why not include modifiers for the purposes of comparison and functionality
>>97126022>Perk level 2 Is the best you can be unless you're a Merchant then you're even better than that.Your talent is specifically increased by intelligence + perception so a 5/5 item 2 chud is better than a 1/1 item 2 chud.
>>97126042Neat, I missed that. Since people were mad about the 5/5/5/0 maybe I should change it to like 4/4/4/3 or something. I suppose its small in the grand scheme since it'll only be compared to other people of your rank, but I was kinda going for all in on art.
>>97126050Oh right we used rentry, I can infact make that change easily without having to do a new post.
>>97126050dump body for being the loser stat and go 4/5/0/5alternatively keep perception at 0 and have a flaw for your character to overcome but who would do that???
>>97126056You convinced me, it was really hard clearly. I'll leave it nomatter what anons say.I was a little tempted to drop down to heaven cultivation and pick up insight, I originally was going to take it but couldn't find anything that felt right. Maybe 'Brush' or something? I guess just 'Ink' has some good connotations from censoring to creating to warding and teaching and everything.But I think I'll leave her as is, it will let other anons fill the niches and be unique. If we end up doing a timeskip or something I can revisit the insight or unlocking her talent then.
>>97126080I just think it could be a cool premise for someone to have maxxed out knowledge of their craft but poor application of it in small ways that add up, and seeing how they overcome or train that would be neatShe knows every ink type and how each stroke effects the bigger picture but doesn't actually best understand where to use what stroke (that's what I assume perception effects for crafts, anyway)
>>97126056Perception 0 seems like painting a Kill Me sign on yourself, since you'll just get instagibbed without ever even knowing you're under attack right? Not so much a flaw as a death sentence.
>>97126136NTA but she could have dead man's switches designed to activate automatically against attacks. Also I don't think having 0 in any talent is an automatic death sentence because you could make up for it in other ways.And it's cooler to actually have flaws and not be fodder that gets embarrassed despite them, that way anons are encouraged to actually have flaws.
I spent the last hour assemling a chair now I guess I can do some math and finish my build.
>>97125992Ah, that thing. I know what that is but I thought you were talking about an option with that name in the cyoa.
>>97126136Its only below average for your level, not mortal level anon.
Making techniques is hard...

>>97126800I choose to be Shrek instead.
>>97126767Kohaku used to hate Christmas because Japan treats it as a basic bitch romantic holiday, and his worm gf lived in another dimension. Since reuniting, he's now ambivalent about it. It's no longer depressing, but any day is a good day to give your worm something nice.Aida used to love Christmas because he got presents as a kid, but now he hates it for being a corporate manufactured holiday.
>>97126767Shobu rejects Christmas as a chain that the West has bound her Glorious Nippon in with their excess, but she is proud of her brothers and sisters for turning it into something more suitable for Japanese sensibilities.She will give gifts on New Year's.
>>97126767Kaoru doesn't mind Christmas. She's not Christian, but she goes out and gets cake for her grandparents since they used to get her cake when she was little. For her, Christmas is a way to give back.
>>97126767Madoka likes... literally all holidays if we're being honest. Any excuse to hang out with people, have good food, give gifts, or otherwise share precious memories is a great thing in her eyes. She finds the romantic aspects of it vaguely exciting, but doesn't feel especially strongly about that side since it's not something she's experienced. Her family is probably leaning a bit in the direction of Shobu's (>>97126993), so Madoka just joins a friend's celebration (usually Momo, might try to organize a student council christmas party if she can get enough members on board.)
>>97127245Christmas writefag where Madoka tries to set two people up for a date?
>>97127255I could see her doing that, yeah... Question is... who? Kaoru and Takaishi maybe? Probably not any part of the Shu Polycule since that's a minefield not to be disturbed.
>>97127255aren't we still in fucking March or April timeline wise
>>97127278I was kinda going there, yeah. I still have that mall episode idea in the back of my mind, and now that I'm "fresh" in terms of writefags, I could get to writing something like that for kicks. Although the Christmas setting might have to be soft canon considering we don't really state when any writefag happens on the school year>>97127287That's what I was just bringing up, anon.
Why the hell have I picked so many techniques!
>>97127301Masochism?
>>97127292Yeah... At some point we should give an actual time marker, even if it's just "hey, here's a summer vacation event, do stuff with it if you want". As for writefags, whatever you choose to do, good luck anon.
>>97127301because you're based and techniquepilled
>>97127345It's all good. I had been meaning to write Madoka for a while though, so Christmas event or no, I might try something.Also, how do you feel about Madoka getting damsel in distress'd again in Momo's newest story?
>>97127365>Christmas event or no, I might try something.o7>Also, how do you feel about Madoka getting damsel in distress'd again in Momo's newest story?Quite happy with it. I think I've said so elsewhere, but I like the idea of her being the danger prone one in the group. I think Momo-anon played into that beautifully.
>>97127390So shes like princess peach. Always tied up at another dudes castle when you come calling.
>>97127390Yeah I remember you saying that, which is why I asked. I feel a bit bad about it, in the sense that I kinda want her to get a W soon, but we'll see how that goes.I am being reminded of an idea someone gave me once where Takaishi asks Scarlet Senshi for advice on how to talk to the girl she likes, and Kaoru has to discretely avoid getting too embarrassed because he doesn't know it's her. I think this is a great opportunity to do that
>>97127405It's a tough job, but someone's gotta be the living plot device to keep the story moving!>>97127407No worries, I don't even really see it as an L. Madoka getting into trouble is like Kaoru getting to do detective work, kek. Plus it just means if I can escape the rot and get my own plotlines moving, I can be a bit more shameless with giving her a win.Does sound cute as fuck, go for it.
>>97127301Hey, it's literally me picking redundant techniques!
>>97127462Have you also went low int, which locked you to low-level techniques, which meant you pick too many of them? (In my case, too many is 8, all earth ranks, originally it was 10, but I swapped some stuff around to cut down on two of them.)
>>97127477Nah, but one version of my characters was kinda like that. Some of mine are redundant now because the higher tier ones do essentially the same thing as the low level ones but better. But I refuse to cut the old ones, because him having them feels thematic
>>97124345>Irfan was Darwyn's enforcer, wasn't he?Sorry bro i mixed up Irfan and Darwyn in my response.What i meant was that Darwyn encountered vampires likely for the first time. As i didn´t find many details on elves having such a huge monster problem compared to humanity, who actually created the witchers to deal with them. Also the vamps pretty much migrated or hid amongst humanity, not the knife ears.But the point anyway is that the mutant dying was meant to be Irfan´s predecessor. As Irfan couldn´t possibly have been born at that time. Of all the characters, only Sucin, Daerwyn and Giselle (possibly) could have walked the continent back then. I also wanted to add some shock value, that people would be scratching their heads over whether or not i killed off an MP character.>I'm not him, but from what I remember he also was supposed to be on the younger side, and the oldest elf ever was 650 and from a different branch of elves and the standard lifespan of the elves here was like 350.Looking back a bit, the elf king wanted to break bread with the aen elle when making his build, then he was the only elf build not o disclose his age. Irfan also desclibed the king taking a liking to his youthful brazenness, so i just assumed he was on the older/middle age side. Not to speak of him knowing biomancy AND being a mage, i mean the oldest human mage was 500 years old.>Wait, but doesn't he get killed Once again i failed to convey my meaning. No, that was meant to be a higher vampire killing his way to what he believed to be easy prey. Maybe he came off as weak? Maybe i should have pointed out how the spear punctured his heart?Have to be honest, i rushed the ending a bit, had a tight schedule to keep and i write an awful slow so maybe that fucked it all up some extra.>>97124904Hey it was a fun learning experience, the mp looks to be dead, with only one other writer. I might attempt at least one more cause i want to, even if just to a rotting corpse.
>>97127616>Wait, but doesn't he get killedTo clarify, no. He never left the drakkar at all.
What’s the limit on how many techniques you can have? Skill + Int?
>>97127662Your point budget
>>97127662None, it's as many as you are willing to spend points on.
>>97127662Skill + Int is for determining how difficult techniques you can learn. There is no direct cap to the number you can learn other than your budget, like the other anon said. So you could take a 100 common rank techniques if you wanted.
>>97127662We are not pokemon.

I just like characters that are big and also big dummies.
>>97121122I want to make a character that makes his own techniques because I think it's cool, but with how the runs go I can't really do that.
>>97127861You can fluff your bought techniques as ones made by your character.
>>97127861whuhwhy not>>97127798Nayuta was the only reason to read Part 2, why did Fujumbo kill her...
>>97127879I have no idea what you're talking about.
>>97127867Not really the same feel. I want someone that can kinda make them on the spot, by xianxia terms anyway so not literally on the spot. Or that takes the ones others have and improves them over time. They both require progression.
>>97121129Anyone got more examples of Cultivation techniques? The Earth-rank doesn't have any and I'm not sure how to scale mine.
>>97127890Tell us what you want it to do and we tell you how to adjust it/what rank it is.
>>97127887Maybe make a Hidden technique to describe the inventiveness and then use it as a versatile collection of lower tier techniques?
>>97127887Maybe leave unspent points? Like you only spend half of your points and then use the rest to justify your guy making and improving new techniques over the course of the mp.
>>97127879>whuh>why notBecause we can't learn stuff after the MP starts even if everything in your build says that you can.
>>97120980Should I repost my last mutant knight anti-hero build or make an entirely new one?
How do I determine what rank an item is? It only lists the cost
>>97127942Common: 1Yellow: 2Earth: 4Heaven: 6
>>97127901That would work for the learning more of the same aspect but not for the improving aspect as they would all stay as low tier.>>97127920Not enough points for that in general. To make a character that can jusitifiably do that stuff it doesn't leave enough points to buy the techniques. That's kinda the whole problem.
>>97127933You should let the dead rest.
>>97127952>To make a character that can jusitifiably do that stuff it doesn't leave enough points to buy the techniques.It makes sense. You can't be both a potentialman and have all the tech now.
>>97127887Hidden Technique that lets you make really weak techniques on the spot
>>97127961Fair enough, time to finish my kosher succubus build
>>97127989The MP is dead.
>>97127900I'll be honest, part of the reason I'm asking is because I'm not even really clear on how the cultivation techniques work, so correct me if I'm wrong. It's supposed to be like a core technique, which describes the method with which character cultivates, and has some general benefit like "cultivates faster"/"has a lot of qi"/"qi carries some elemental aspect" etc, right?So I have only a vague idea so far. I was thinking of making the method be somehow centred around being a youxia. Like the cultivation doesn't happen by meditating or just training, but by wandering and using the skills for justice.For the benefit, I'm really not sure.For the rank, I'm looking for Top-grade Earth-rank Earth-rank because budget number autism, grade because I rolled earlier to see how how many of each grade to get, and since Cultivation is said to be important I slotted it in one of my "Top-grade" spots, but I can still move some stuff a bit and drop it to high or mid grade.
>>97128028>doesn't happen by meditating or just training, but by wandering and using the skills for justice.Sure, that sounds fine. Following your Dao is a way to grow in general so a technique that capitalizes on that doesn't sound out of place. How strong it is would depend on a combination of the benefit and how easy it is to do. If just wandering around and helping grannies cross the street counts as justice and makes you grow it's a common rank. If you need to topple evil kings to grow it's heaven rank. Of course one would be slow and steady while the other would give big boosts and probably also a lot of secondary benefits in exchange for being hard to do. I think being a general vigilante type characetrs and beating bandits would fit being earth rank, with the greater the evil you beat the more you grow.
>>97121122Windy boy coming through.https://rentry.co/mpwindyboy
I am struggling to make a character. If I join I will make a potentialman and put in the effort to grow, but I don't want to waste all my effort to make the character, coming up with a good backstory and inserting it into the setting, getting invested, just to be told there is no progression and I wasted my time. On the other hand as a potentialman I want to join early so I have more time to write about more stuff.
>>97128092>filenameYes, yes it is. That's why I'm half tempted to just remake an old character. I have started looking for images at random and stashing them for later so I can make a character I already have a faceclaim for.
>>97128083I'm the one that mentioned throwing a more wuxia style character into a xianxia setting, so he's mostly over his head. So the typical tier in which he grew was typical wuxia tier, fighting corrupt magisters, bandit kings, etc. A valorous act that helps tens to hundreds of people, but it's not world changing or anything like that.But then he started to plateau, and semi retired to a position of a soldier in a border town, so his cultivation slowed down, but then the cultists attack and he's been sent into action again but this time the enemies are stronger and stakes are bigger. Any ideas what the benefits could be? Those really seem the vaguest to me, especially stuff like the qi being "deep and mysterious".
>>97128123I've started doing that too. I just didn't have one for this setting already prepared, and this setting is harder than others. Especially when making a roguish commoner, since all the guys look like pretty princesses in pretty robes or strongfat dudes in armor.
>>97128148I see. Well, the classic would be a karma bonus damage, the more evil the opponent is the more bonus damage you do. The other kind of karma bonus is also on the table if you want something more subtle, the more you do good deeds and act like a hero the luckier you get. It could also have drawbacks if you start acting evil or immoral and even more bonuses. A danger sense but for others so you know where you are needed for some utility, or maybe being able to travel long distances without tiring. If you wanna go defensive then being unable to die as long as you have something to protect or the ability to teleport to the side of someone that is about to be attacked. These all feel fitting, and depending on the degree of intensity of each one I think it makes sense to have at least a couple.
>>97128210Thanks. Karma damage buff and danger sense likely are the most fitting to my idea of the character the rest of the build I have currently. As I'm going for more wuxia than xianxia character (who nevertheless will have to function in the xianxia world after), I'd rather avoid too obviously supernatural elements, so teleporting might be a bit too far. I already have a luck factor as defensive treasure effect, because it makes it so that attacks are more likely to strike the parts covered by the armor rather than those unprotected (partially because the faceclaim I found lacks a helmet and some of the arm protection). Tje tiring effect os partially covered by my movement technique and pseudo treasure vessel (although that one I've made clearly supernatural now that I think about it so I might change it still...). The drawback karma variant might not quite fit, because I wanted one top-tier heavenly treasure as a McGuffing for the cultists, and I've made it one that protects from attacks on the soul, and the bad karma causing him to weaken sounds like something that might get interfered by that. Im also not sure how often the bad karma would even come up.
>>97128092I read this as white boy coming through
>>97128324Happy to help. I'm still stuck on mine but I like talking about this stuff. I don't think the drawbacks of a technique need to necessarily come up, if your character is just an upright person then I see nothing wrong with it just never happening, maybe as a plot point if he's forced to make hard choices or something but only as a special moment, maybe to make him even more convinced of his road after. I don't think the bad karma would hit the soul, but you know what fits your character best. Anyway cool concept, the attempt to make an in-universe reason to make his armor work is funny, because this genre tends to work off rule of cool anyway, but it's a neat idea.
>>97128374One more question if I could trouble you. Where do you think this would place best grade-wise? I've rolled 3 top-grades and I was planning to get 3 body refinement techniques, so now I'm starting to think that maybe making those the top-ranks would be best, because it might help make them not useless at Pure+ (Earth-rank seems to be when those start to appear looking at the Vitality one). Thanks in advance in case I can't answer soon.
>>97128399If you make it a constant growth with a minimun degree of "evil" to actually count then I would say Yellow rank. If you have proportional gains based on the danger/evil you face then it would be very top tier Yellow to middle tier Earth rank, you can make it work as both. I'm not an expert or the best at balance but this feels like it would work. It does seem that way, I had some plans for that too, and I ended up finding a backstory/motivation that I really like so my character may see the light of day if I find the right faceclaim, or just give up and go for something more popular. 3 body techs is a lot, but I guess it makes sense for a former wuxia guard to have potentially less flashy tech.
>>97126767Alyona was raised by an aggressively atheist father and sees Christmas as a fancy wellfare holiday.JAPANESE christmas on the other hand is a beautiful holiday to her.
How many more people are making MP builds? Wondering how long I should put off making my chart.
>>97128092I think the two WIP builds are both guys, so he's going to have a lot of competition for the two single female builds.
>>97128495Depends, if are doing progression of any kind then I will join. Otherwise I will just keep the character in reserve I guess, but I will still make it.>>97128496Isn't one of them married? Anyway I don't think competition is something anyone has to worry about unless someone makes a serial romancer, ships never go anywhere.
>>97128519>if are doing progression of any kind then I will joinThe thing about xianxia settings is that they're supposed to take years in universe for even learning like basic techniques unless you're a potential man. So idk how true we wanna be. Taking several months or a few years to learn a legendary technique and a few days for common techniques sounds reasonable to me but again idk
>>97128519I think one is married and the other two aren't.
>>97128552>unless you're a potential manThat's what I was planning to make. I'm also not the only one and some of the current builds are sertup for it as well. Shortening the timeframe a bit sounds good to make things happen, but maybe more like weeks for common and going up from there? I'm fine with your idea but I feel like someone will say it's too fast.
>>97128574There are 3? I was sure we only had 2 period, not 2 unmarried.
>>97128602One is a bratty reverse trap, easy mistake.
>>97128619The young master is a girl? Checking the thread I guess someone already made the same mistake.
>>97128602>>97128619Zero idea how Moyu (or Ri I guess) could be confused for a boy
>>97128619>>97128658Is she actually a reverse trap or is everyone just confused because of the name?
>>97128662I didn't have time to read the builds yet so I went by name and image, and one of them is called young master so...
>>97128663/mcyoag/ craves the reverse trap archetype whenever a male build is ever slightly effeminate.
>>97121122Phew, I'm done. Here goesXun Jian, Dragon of the Northern Riverhttps://rentry.co/dragonofthenorthI used all my points up exactly. I think this came out pretty cool, feel free to murder me if I fucked up
>>97128356He's blonde I guess, but I gave him a very Chinese name. I think Heinrich Gotthelf Humboldt is the one with the white boy swag.>>97128496Pic related. If the MP doesn't get more ladies, he'll fight whoever he has to during his marriage quest. His mother demands it, and she's far more terrifying than any cultivator.>>97128495I'm in a similar boat with Fei. I haven't decided who all he knows yet either, since he rolled into town pretty recently. Maybe he got a servant job under the Xun family, since he's broke and homeless and they're wealthy enough to have servant quarters. Most may not even know he's a cultivator yet, and just wonder how such a useless servant got hired in the first place.Or I guess he could meet one or more of them in a more action-y way. Idk.>>97128519>unless someone makes a serial romancerFor Fei, those days are long past. His eyes may wander, maybe even a lot, but he's definitely ready to commit to one woman now. Extremely marriage material. Tell all your friends.
>>97128748I mean my guy's like 14 or so, I don't think he's gonna get married anytime soon unless someone pushes for it really hard so you go have fun with your Chris Chan love quest anon
I am so close to using a pokemon gjinka as a faceclaim.
>>97128748>His mother demands it, and she's far more terrifying than any cultivator.Just read your rentry, I have to respect the guy for the honesty, he deserves luck to be on his side.>Maybe he got a servant job under the Xun family, since he's broke and homeless and they're wealthy enough to have servant quarters.He would probably know my character then. The problem is that I haven't posted it yet.>Extremely marriage material. Tell all your friends.Now I'm imagining a group of dudes acting as his wingman, vetting candidates and helping him out. The strange german uncle seems like he would, it would be funny.>>97128757Sorry to break it to you but by feudal china and xianxia standards he's actually getting quite old. That's mostly for arranged marriages tho and he doesn't seem to have anyone to arrange that right now.
>>97126767Rin's surprisingly big on the chrimbo. She liked it back when her parents would buy her obscure toys and books or take her places, and even reduced to just a family KFC meal, it's still a nice holiday. Giving gifts unprompted is more socially acceptable during a holiday, too.But the real crowning jewel of the season is secret santa/anonymous gift trades. Ai gets a collage of Shu photos (coincidentally, only when he's talking to other girls), Momo a standard-issue uniform, Alyona a copy of Milton Friedman's "Capitalism and Freedom", Madoka a coupon for beginners self-defense classes...>>97128495I'm thinking about it, but I'm pretty stuck on what to make.
>>97128798>Ai gets a collage of Shu photos (coincidentally, only when he's talking to other girls)Holy FUCK Rin has a death wish now I'm curious about what she'd gift to Kaoru, would she subtly imply that they both know that the other is a fake-ass bitch?>>97128788Tragic. Only tangentially related, but since they both train beasts, I was thinking Jian and Moyu could hang out since they're also of similar ages (I think). Might be a fun thing to write even if it probably wouldn't be romantic
>>97128798If Alyona hadn't grown as a person she'd send a brick through Rin's window.As it stands, she would take it as a chance to write a full essay on why everything in the book is proven wrong by the collapse of the USSR and the Russian Federation's inability to govern properly. She has lots of fun stories about police officers trying to extort her friends. She'd tell anyone who wants to understand how things are a bit better to watch a film called "Bimmer".
>>97128798Working on plans for Rin and Aida sneaking into Kurobane Tower (with help from Dawn). I'm thinking her part of tge motivation is investigating Itsuki's Kurobane connection, since as a member of the old SC he'd be a person of interest to the HLA. Aida's attempt at building a heist team is a useful way to get inside and get some intel, so she uses them as a way to get in. Does that sound reasonable?How would she feel about the whole stick it to the man routine?

>>97126767Kenji loves Christmas - perfect excuse to give out movies to other students, and you get lots of time off school to film. He usually celebrates with Tokiwa-chan and maybe his mom, but that's mostly because he's a friendless loser - having allies might mean he can spend it with some actual people. Then again, the HLA doesn't seem like the kind of group to exchange gifts and have parties.His favorite Christmas movies are the ones that are not at all about Christmas. Die Hard and Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence are up near the top, and he'll be going to see Castaway when it comes out.>>97128810"Fufufu, you seek audience with the precious jade of the Xun family? Well, your taste in spirit beasts is passable... Very well! You may carry the noble Xun Moyu's luggage while we shop! I expect at least three songs to be dedicated to me as thanks for this kindness!"I could see it too. They're around the same age (I haven't settled on her age, but she's somewhere around 14-15), and she is naturally more fond of those that use or are related to beasts. She'd definitely be a bad influence though, I would assume Jian is the one that has to bail the pair out of bad situations (fights that Moyu starts for no reason, fleeing a gambling den before they get robbed or kidnapped, etc.)
>>97128810>>97128853Rin's not an idiot. She's a genius and uses the Secret Santa Technique, duh. Untraceable.
>>97128757If they aren't in competition, then they may as well be allies. Fei is a very positive influence. He could teach the kid the art of seduction, how to sneak into the women's hot springs, how to rip off those greedy merchant bastards...his lessons would be endless. All Jian would have to do is introduce Fei to some of his sisters and cousins and maybe tell them about how awesome he is. Just nothing about the examples above, obviously. That's forbidden knowledge.>>97128788>He would probably know my character then. The problem is that I haven't posted it yet.It's possible your build will give me more ideas then.>The strange german uncle seems like he would, it would be funny.Now that you mention him, maybe he could be the one to hire Fei in the first place. It would explain why Fei doesn't get fired despite being a complete fuckup. Things to consider while the builds roll in.>by feudal china and xianxia standards he's actually getting quite oldIf the kid is already there, does that make Fei a Christmas cake?
>>97128972That sounds really fun, Jian is forced out of his solitude and his comfort zone by this bull in a china shop that demands he kowtows to her 15 times a day, but in reality they just get along in the end because they’re around the same age and they both like animals. Also it’s funny because Jian has one Rare beast and Moyu has 3 of the big ones. And hey, Jian would certainly appreciate someone taking time out of their day to listen to his erhu without judgement>>97129017Everyone’s a bad influence on Jian, he does well in isolating himself… Jian’s only sister is Ri and most of their old clan is dead, so tough luck there buddy. Would be really funny if Fei tries to teach Jian how to sneak into the girls’ offsprings and the girls catch him immediately while Jian has to make up some excuse just so he doesn’t die lol
>>97128977I'm imagining a christmas play at Higan where Alyona is cast as scrooge and has to learn the true meaning of christmas to play the part after admitting she has never once celebrated Christmas.Secret Santa Rin is very wholesome given her whole deal.
>>97128810>now I'm curious about what she'd gift to Kaoru, would she subtly imply that they both know that the other is a fake-ass bitch?I think any >implications would have to be subtle enough to be passed over as accidental, since anything too pointed would also point back at her. The purpose is more to crash the vibes with a bit of petty spite.As for surface-level digs at Kaoru, I'm thinking either thick, clown-tier gyaru makeup or a push up bra (mis-sized).>>97128853>If Alyona hadn't grown as a person she'd send a brick through Rin's window.But Rin's gift was just an innocent christmas ornament! She's clearly not the Higan Gifter!If she was smarter, she'd try to frame somebody else for it, but the only plausible build would be Tetsuya and I don't know where Rin would find that many cumjars.>>97128937Rin would be more than happy with sticking it to the Kurobane, but participating in a heist without revealing her idolon seems risky. I guess it depends on her role though, playing interceptor or distraction would fit her skillset.I'm also not sure about her looking for the Itsuki Files with a team, mostly because if it's digital data through Dawn, asking for him could raise some red flags, while papers would be something she could get easier if there were no other idolon users around.I think her motivation would fit as wanting to do damage to the Kurobane, more than she'd be able to do by herself. Getting info by probing Dawn or from their computers would be a secondary priority.>>97128972An HLA christmas party would end with at least two bodybags, but it'd definitely be the most popping party around.>>97128977Even super detectives have to respect it.
>>97129017>It's possible your build will give me more ideas then.It's getting closer to done, I'm only missing one detail that will determine the rest of his techs and general flavour. He's a member of a lower branch that was transfered to the main Xun clan as a mix of exile and protection. He stole a pretty important technique from another clan so now they want him dead, he's also already made his own version and is the only one that can use it so the clan transfered him intead of just handing him over. So he would be halfway between proper member and servant. The last detail is what Fundation he has, I am torn between 2 legendary beasts. Either a phoenix of sorts or a fox of sorts, speaking of.We have a couple of dragons, does anyone plan to complete the cardinal directions?>If the kid is already there, does that make Fei a Christmas cake?Pretty much. But it's different for commoners since they have to work for it and he's also a guy. In clans the difference between male and female for marriage is not that different, only the importance given to it. For commoners there is a lot of age difference.
>>97129077>push-up braIf she knew who it was from, she’d say the pot is calling the kettle black. Low blow though, she’s definitely the smallest in the Student Council beside the literal child so it would sting at least a little. Especially since Kaoru also hangs out with Ai so much, a massive reminder of all the things she doesn’t have.If Kaoru was in a Secret Santa sort of thing, she’d put in enough thought into people’s gifts, but she’d try to seem like she isn’t putting THAT much thought as to get the most typical, expected reactions out of people as possible. Gifts that are just good enough to go under the radar. I’m gonna list the people she interacts with the most, or just random characters>ShuSocks. Especially fluffy socks, so he doesn’t catch a cold the next time hetries to sleep in a locker in case something happens to Madoka’s house.>YaeA franchise-themed game of Clue, the most ridiculous franchise Kaoru can get her hands on.>MadokaBlue nail polish. Kaoru actually does paint her nails blue because I’ve drawn her that way before, so she might want to genuinely share that with Madoka and have that in common. It’s her way of saying “hey, wanna try my nailpolish for a while?”. >RanSports tape. Just in case he gets hurt during rugby again>MeliayaA solar-powered RC car for her to tinker with.>AiEarlier in the day, she asked Shu to sign on her notebook without explaining why to him. She might bring a generic gift if the Secret Santa is done publicly, but she’d give Ai the piece of paper afterwards. Just a little treat.>TakaishiNope. Rubber gloves, so his hands don’t get callouses while he works in the field.>Just for kicks, Rin, that way I pay you back, anonWith similar logic, Kaoru would try to give Rin a very low-key present that might be interpreted as a dig. She’d go to the nearest Hot Topic equivalent and get a random T-shirt.
>>97127745>stat A is just better stat BHonestly hate this. Stats don't need to be equal but they should be distinct in terms of feature-set.
>>97129393The thing is, Body's kinda cucked because it literally affects nothing.Skill affects the difficulty you can learn, Perception affects the "sciences", and Intelligence does BOTH. Body gets the short end of the stick, with vague "uhh body refining works better, champ :)"
I think there's an anon or two still making builds so I'll hold off on making my chart until tomorrow.>>97128748>Maybe he got a servant job under the Xun familyI think that's the best course of action. I'd say Heinrich would be sympathetic to him as an outsider but still wary because he's an outsider. Since obviously the Xun Clan contains the most jade-esque beauties in the Northern Territory, it could be that Heinrich thought to hire him to "vet" him. The gwailou hiring someone as a servant of his own accord may be a bit suspect though, so perhaps he uses Wen as a shell and passes it off as her idea?>>97128788>The strange german uncle seems like he would, it would be funny.He definitely would if he grew to like him.>>97129017I think Fei would have to do something to get Heinrich to immediately like him enough for him to cover his fuckups, though. Like putting his life at risk for the Xun Clan. That could be an interesting way to kick things off for Fei, like a cultist attack a clan member (maybe both Moyu and Jian in a misadventure?) gets caught in, and Fei proves himself in the midst of that.
>>97129460You're directly stronger, faster and more durable. In martial arts, technique is the force multiplier, but your body decides what force you've got to multiply.
>>97129985Talismans, Items, Beasts, and even some techniques make that less important and even replacable though. It can't be denied that Body is easily the worst investment out of all the talents.
>>97130003You could pretty much reverse that sentiment and say that you can replace some talismans, items, beasts and even techniques by just making your body stronger. In the end, I don't think it's better or worse, just different flavour.
>>97129585My build is mechanically complete but O got write all the fluff.
>>97130106That's the hard part, especially if you've got a lot of custom stuff.
SLAVES
Damn, I can’t believe we got to page 10 so soon. Is this the power of Martial Path?
>>97130194It has nothing to do with us, it just means new threads were made faster
>>97130215Nah this thread was a bit quicker than usual
>>97130323>>97130323>>97130323Hogs jog out of the bog down to the hogshead for some tasty slop.Emergency Services activated because less than five threads remained.
>>97130326Good work emergency threadslave. Also I just woke up, so I'll get to posting stuff.
It's technically secret hours time.I've been wondering, since PMD has been tried repeatedly, what would a pokemon mp play like? By that I mean playing as pokemon trainers, either traveling from place to place and battling whenever we meet, or settling down in town as a gym leader or starting a business and being visited by random adventurers from across the lands.
>>97130413we'd probably need a new cyoa for that, one with a section for the trainer and a section to build your companions (pokemon)
>>97130470Already exists.
>>97130470There's a good amount of Pokemon trainer CYOAs actually. The problem really comes from the team building aspect. https://imgchest.com/p/ne7bwkndm75 is one of the newer ones I've found from a quick search.
>>97130543yeah I think a template system works better than a limited selection since there's over a thousand pokemonchoosing between starter, pseudo, fishing encounters, grass encounters, cave encounters, night encounters, etc
>>97130413I don't think a pokemon MP would work. It's esentially a setting where you have to make 7 characters or more and they keep increasing as time goes on. Pokemon are not just fighting animals, they have full on personalities as has been proven many times, managing at least 6 NPCs each is way to much of a mess to work properly. It could be somewhat mitigated by having some people play the pokemon, but then we run into the Fate issue, and pokemon have less agency unless we all make a bunch of Ash's Pikachu likes.
>>97130594I would struggle to say pokemon have personalities, 80% of them are composed of 2 to 3 traits so the child audience can remember themsome of them can have complex backstories and get more fleshed out, but those are the exception, not the norm
>>97130594That's making the assumption of trainers starting out with a full team when most random trainers have 2-4 pokemon including the ace trainers. The team that they have is a part of how they grow and expecting anyone to have 6 at the start is like starting with more than a handful of endgame powers in other settings.
>>97130648They get more complex the more they interact with humans, it's a lore thing too. Simplifying it like that defeats the purpouse of the setting.>>97130653First, assuming that havong a full team of 6 is endgame power is a very big exageration. A team of 6 Rattata is not endgame, they would need to be 6 high level pokemon with a competitive moveset to be endgame. Second, that changes nothing, starting with 2-4 NPCs to manage and adding more later is the same as starting with 6, you still have a lot of stuff to manage.
>>97130543This one looks pretty good, I'd be down to give it a try.>>97130677The CYOA has you begin with just one, with a few ways to get more. Also, they're as much of a character as you make them, so there's no reason for all of them to be full NPCs any more than each of Meliaya's drones or Madoka's shikigamis is a character.
