I've finished the first page of my Isekai WIP, or the rough draft, at least, and am enjoying the workflow. Here's a pixelated version to avoid spoilers but prove that I'm making progress and not attentionwhoring. Unfortunately I'm busy with my coursework and IRL obligations for the rest of the week so I won't be able to do much but I'm still hunting for pics and sketching down notes for later work. The gist of it is that you have six versatile, conceptual powers on offer, each of which has three aspects that fit together to form the power's greater whole.I like the customization inherent to some power systems, where the user can lessen or remove one part of their power to improve or alter another, so I'll be including a section of augments. You could remove one aspect to strengthen the remaining aspects, specialize on one aspect, swap an aspect with another power, and so on. There'll be a fair amount of straight upgrades to power, control, efficiency, etc. with no strings attached but those aren't as flashy. Changing the aesthetic, fuel source, mutating yourself for a boost are all possible. A few retarded ones are planned, such as 'All-or-nothing' where you burn your entire energy reserve for every effect that you do, for overwhelming strength and zero efficiency, and the inverse, 'Hundredfold' where you can't use any more than 1/100th of your energy for each effect for sublime control and almost no strength.What are some additional ways you would like to customize your power? Agelessness is already included in the baseline because you'll need it to avoid dying before you can change the world's status quo. Don't hesitate to give me every idea you have or would like to see. I estimate there will be around 40 choices for the augment section, possibly more. It will most likely be two pages.
>>97538861Unless you choose to be a CIA asset that is.
>>97538863>1162 widthEither increase the width or do that imaging technique that makes things still look good when small (refer to: https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/80673252/#80734962).
>>97538863>Agelessness is already includedboooooooo!
>>97538910
>>97538890>I need to die!
>>97538696Most anticipated WIP of all time?
>>97538936No? It got announced half a year ago at best. Compared to Wagie Case devouring threads pre-release for near a decade it's nothing.
>>97538952
>>97538863Multiple power systems like picrel? If so, I ask only that you go more in depth. More details and concrete statements on what can be done. Innermost Institute is such a "could have been".https://imgchest.com/p/agyvnkdmk48
>>97538936Not even close
>>97538959
>>97538965
>>97538889The real version is 1900 pixels wide, the software I used for pixelation shrunk it for some reason. I will be sure to look at that, though, thank you.>>97538890I know, I know. Personally I'm apathetic on the whole immortality thing but every time I see an expensive immortality option in a CYOA, 95% of builds bend over backwards to take it. So I figure giving it to anons by default will improve build diversity, and lessen the amount of needless bickering. I'll be including a choice where you can forgo agelessness to gain two extra choices, and it is a fantasy setting with a wide range of possible preservation tactics, but none are quite as easy or simple. This is also supposed to be an Isekai CYOA, so when in doubt, I'm trending towards wish fulfillment. That said, anons will need to earn their Good End.
>>97538976
>>97538964>>97538936You fucks are unbelievably retarded. At least Steam charts threads on /v/ have actual player numbers. Here you could samefag about your CYOA and suddenly people talk about how popular it is or shit on some other CYOA to gaslight people into thinking it's shit. Or repost your WIP in every thread.>"This CYOA has 20 builds! It means it's popular!"If only there was some jeet here notorious for his samefagging and making builds for his own CYOAs because every other sane person thought they're garbage... Hmm...
>>97538999>confidence: 999>wrongness: also 999
>>97538960Somewhat so, yes! I dislike when CYOAs are vague on the capabilities of the player, because everything seems similarly unfounded by contrast. All of the powers have several examples of what users can do at each skill level, which I hope anons will be able to extrapolate more information from for the context of their adventure.
>>97538982>I'm trending towards wish fulfillment. That said, anons will need to earn their Good End.Why can't you just let us have fun?
>>97538863>The gist of it is that you have six versatile, conceptual powers on offerTell us what they are. How are we supposed to offer suggestions when we don't have any idea about what we're supposed to be talking about?
>>97539032You can't have fun in your own dream adventure?
>>97538952>>97539003Whoever made this really hates wizards
February... home...
>>97539038Not when the author goes out of his way to make it difficult for me. I play these to have fun, if I have to bargain with the author for permission I will just move on to someone else that respects my time and wishes.
>>97539052>SkellyCHADMore like skellychud lmao
>>97539052>>97539078Do I remember wrong or he was an awful and insistent shitposter?
>>97539055Explain to me your opinion on good end then, autist-kun. Do you want it to be spelled out in a choice or what? Talk to me.
>>97539083I don't remember, but I do know that people that unironically call themselves chads are the biggest faggots usually.
>>97539032I like violence, and the best thing for me about intricate powers is when they're clashing against each other. You won't start off in a Dark Souls asylum or anything like that, it isn't fully grimdark. There are just several mutually hostile factions that wouldn't want a free agent with godlike potential on the loose. They won't know about your arrival at first and laying low won't be difficult, but the world's structure is on a decline and if nothing changes, it will fall apart in a few more centuries, and dissolve entirely in a couple of millennia. A diplomatic or scheming route is possible, as is starting your own faction, or assassinating a few big players so that one faction can dominate. I plan to have plenty of comfy elements and the situation's not pressingly urgent. I do personally like difficult CYOAs, and they aren't as common as they used to be. Sometimes I miss the old survival islands.>>97539034I don't want to spoil anything, because one of my favourite parts of OC is when one releases and I wasn't expecting it, or aware of the context. You do raise a good point, however. Without powers most discussion is entirely generic. Do you want to see the powers without the surrounding context? Or would a general descriptor of what broad archetype they fall under and their overall gist work?
>>97539123>Or would a general descriptor of what broad archetype they fall under and their overall gist work?This should be enough.
>>97539083 (me)>>97539096Nevermind, I was thinking of Skeletickles.
>>97538952What do Gary Stu do ?
Post Radiant
>>97539163Its playing on easy mode. Pretty self-explanatory.
>>97539032>bwaaaaa bwaaaa!
>>97539139Alrighty. The powers are, by default->A trap setter that focuses on manipulating the battlefield. Excels at setting traps and debilitating targets but is tricky to use in straight combat.>A healer that uses broad AoE that, in battle, starts off weak and ramps up to greater strength. Excels at attrition and support but lacks speed and precision.>A bruiser that improves their stats by reducing concepts within themselves. Excels at physical combat but has no external abilities.>A sniper that poisons and debuffs targets and has top-tier efficiency and accuracy. Excels at damage over time but is vulnerable in melee.>A commander that can drain from or funnel energy to their followers, and make some utility items. Excels at strategic combat and manipulation but is fragile if caught alone.>A skirmisher that disorients and paralyzes targets. Excels at stealth and has an easy learning curve, but is weaker in direct combat.These are the broadest possible terms, without saying anything of their aesthetics. I can get more specific if you'd like, anon, but that is the gist of them.
>>97539183BENIS!
>>97539183MODSMOOOOOODS
I should probably post my build for this before Night Rider makes his next cyoa.
>>97539361
>>97539378
>>97539385
>>97539361I'm not a poet, so I don't know what conventions I did or did not follow. Regardless, I think it came out all right.
>>97539437Cool
>>97539228>A commanderThe only recommendation I can give you is to add skeletons. Every commander class is better with skeletons.
>>97539437I'm in awe anon. Fire Knight was always one of my favourite builds, but this goes above and beyond. Thank you. I seriously appreciate this, and will be saving it directly into my subfolder for Icescape. It humbles to me to know one of my CYOAs inspired you like this.>>97539485Fear not, there will be potential for skeletons. There are several fuel sources, death being one of them. Failing that, you can always learn to do necromancy the hard way, or try to join the lich faction.

>>97539522kino from the motherland
>>97539514I wouldn't call it a pure lich faction but it does have a large amount of them. Immortality-chasing faction might be more accurate.
>>97539522>all magics>high fantasyMore like game of gods.
>>97539536Just call them the /cyoag/ faction
>>97539522Is it really GoT when you can throw fireballs and raise the dead for like 5 points?
>>97539514Thanks for reading, and continuing to make cyoas!
>>97539228Do you envision it as more of a rock-paper-scissors situation in 1v1 or "all of them are balanced so the smartest and most creative will win the duel" thing?
>>97538956>Wagie Case ReduxDropping in 2030 at the latest btw
>>97539591Optimistic take. I like it.
>>97539591Good riddance
>>97539551Kek. It might appeal to anons, but some of the other factions are more generous. I hope it leads to a good amount of discussion.>>97539569I read and archive screenshots of every build I get. It fills me with hope the /cyoag/ can continue in the future. If I can make CYOAs, any anon can.>>97539577I envision them all as leaning into their specialty some, but a cunning user could shift the fundamentals enough to contort its identity entirely. The trap power, for example, could easily become a rapid fire long-ranged attacker while the poisoner could forgo their efficiency to invest into pouring their power into a servitor that gets in close and personal. That sort of thing. They aren't balanced against each other but are best in specific situations. If a strong user of the bruiser power caught the commander by surprise, that's game over. Again, by default. I want to have myriad ways to tweak, bend, and shuffle the default into something else entirely. Every power can fill any niche, albeit to varying degrees, and with different paths taken to get there.
>>97538686> VersesElemental Titan (Base)Gatekeeper (No Constraint)Gatekeeper is easily the strongest thanks to multiversal travel, Elemental Titan has a constraint I'm willing to put up with until I die of old age and ditch it.> LimericksLimerick of the Honest RhymeLimerick of the Bitter RivalBitter Rival doesn't get immediate multiverse access like I do so I can easily outscale them. Honest Rhyme is annoying but it'll go away eventually.
>>97538863Are they 6 branches of the same system or 6 separate systems? Also, there better be methods of gaining power, different ones for each if they are different systems.
>>97539621I forgot my trip but it doesn't really matter, I think. We're all anons.
>>97539627They're six separate branches of the same system. Essentially, your first choice is to determine which aspect of the world your power imprints on, and that causes it to take its initial shape. There will be many ways to gain, subvert, enhance, and exchange powers, and a decently wide range of opponents to use them against.

Magi Case was literally one of the most anticipated and then participated CYOAs this general as ever seen
>>97539751
>>97538863I would like an option that makes my scaling faster but limited by something external. Instead of training I would have to hunt certain monsters or whateverI would like to have my powers be directed by a sentient, selfaware clone of me that exists only through them (Who's thoughts may diverge from their initial place of unity with my own)I would like to do that thing where I spend every other day on earth or in the isekai and only when I die in one does the other become my realityI would like to be able to create angels of my power, seperating them from myself but allowing them to act independently (And I would then like said angels to be cute girls)I would like some of my powers to be inheritable and ideal to become stronger in future generationsI would like my powers to block certain memories of me using them or while I'm using them (Ok I wouldn't actually want that but it might be a cool drawback)I would like my powers to be empowered by certain emotionsI would like my powers to get stronger when I am near deathI would like my powers to use less staminaI would like my powers to be somehow sealable.I would like to have one thing for each hand

I've been gooning to nsfw chatbots this whole month. I only just now discovered how far we've come in that field. It's prevented me from accomplishing many of my cyoa-related activities. A good anon kept asking about when I'd do the cyoa about the adventurer women from that image, and I couldn't respond to him, I couldn't bring myself to say, I was stuck gooning instead of fulfilling my promises...

>>97540105>>97540274My rankings:>1. Peshuval EderiteYou literally become a god in a fantasy world. There are other gods, but by your nature you have a natural advantage against them.>2. Cereus Sanguinaria OndingYou're on the path to becoming a demon god, with a loyal wife who would reap souls for you and reminisce about your meet-cute. A keeper. I kinda wish I could start the scenario at that meeting, however.>3. Melinoë SisyphaYour wife is clearly a little unhinged, but loves you and has god-like powers. Infinite adventures await. Who doesn't like a girl that's a little yandere, anyway?>4. Kseniya LebedevSymbiotes are cool. Infiltrate the humans and take them down from the inside with tentacle rape. Hot.>5. Vieux Honoré Gâteau/ss/ with magic. Sexy and comfy. Surely I could convince her to stop fucking me for five minutes to go on an adventure in this magical world?>6. Cruorem 'Cro' LuvenisNice, a cute loli wife plus super vampire powers. Subterfuge and social intrigue aren't my favorite, however.>7. Luminous 'Lumi' FlareFight demons with a weapon waifu by your side. Simple to describe but with lots of potential depth.>8. Evalyne F. EvermoreA cute and comfy little scenario, with some mystery for good measure. Explore the world without people and observe nature. Not bad at all.
>>97540663>9. Unit BetelgeuseSci-fi space battles are kinda lame, but you get a harem of sexy robot chicks. It's alright.>10. Purus AlbedoYou're an old man and you give your not-quite kids away to nobles to serve as sex slaves. Maybe with time you can improve this, you are a master alchemist after all.>11. Empress AmbrosiaThere's nothing going on, the place is a utopia. You mog every other man on the planet, but otherwise it's kinda boring and also you might have PTSD.>12. Okami AnzuThis bitch (literally) irritates me. Kamideres are annoying. Also she wants to be fucked while in wolf form. Bleh.>13. AquariOSForced to become random animals for thousands of years. At least you get to get your rocks off and are the god of a game world at the end.>14. Unreyth se LeinnaakNo romance, just fighting for power.>15. Kiyuuei ShihoThe trauma here is a little too real and uncomfortable compared to being a cool tentacle monster with aphrodisiacs further above.>16. Archival Guardian Ψ PsifraelYou are trapped in a library for eternity.

>>97540729Honestly every choice deserves its own cyoa spinoff. The descriptions are just so invocative and the waifus so full of personality, even the boring mangaka one. JRPG was truly a master of his craft.

>>97541155Because she did an "I am x" instead of "I aspire to be x".
>>97541155Because we are the players, it's the whole point to self insert for us. Aro as the author shouldn't do that. It's like when the DM turns his players into the party of his super special DMPC that is totally unrelated to him in any way.
>>97541167>>97541164I'll share a secret with you, anons.Every single character in every single cyoa is an author's self-insert in one way, shape, or form. A person can only live one life and all characters they create are in some way related to or pull from that singular life.
>>97541164>she did an "I am x"Anons do that too? they're alwa5 like "I'm the strongest", "I am the best at sex", etc...
>>97541173So... when you imagine yourself fucking a waifu you are actually fucking the author's self-insert? who's most likely a man? h-have we been unintentionally having gay sex all this time?
>>97541196Yes.

>>97541649>Authors, how would you react if someone made AI chatbots out of your cyoas?I'd think it was a neat idea, but I don't see how it would really work out well in practice. My experience with chatbots is that, despite expectations, they don't lend themselves very well to development of the kind of interactive narrative that cyoas hopefully are meant to inspire.
Everything can be reduced to a checklist if you think like that. Romance, fighting etc, it's all just going through the motions. What's the point of your 1473829874th build?

Speed vs Strength: Which is cooler?
>>97542849Speed
>>97542849Strength
>>97538952Best Fortuitous Encounter?
GILBERT
>>97538731Yes. Tankista makes - by far - the highest quality cyoa out of any author remaining.
>>97542982what's a good cyoa by tankista?
>>97542953Isekai. Anything else is memory death and we can't have that.
>>97542953Ancient techniques + peasant since 3 effort = 3 extra ancient techniques. Too bad only the highest scaling multiplier counts. Artifact for Necklace of Eternity than get a hidden cave to afk cultivate for billions of years until invincibility also seems viable?
>>97541051I dont want to defend this cyoa because I dont think its very good (its borderline tok tier with bad writing), but this is stupid. The end bosses are all "the best" in some way, thats what makes them end bosses. The wizard end boss being the best at magic is to be expected. >doesent even look like a lichA lich is. by default, a fancy undead spellcaster. You have two ways to go "special" with an even fancier undead spellcaster, either find a way to make them look even more magical and undead (hard to do meaningfully short of "glowing power being") or you go back to "and now theyre capable of looking like a pretty human".
>>97542991Worm, F:AP, Blood Magic, Magocratic Convention, Time of Troubles...

>>97543004>The wizard end boss being the best at magic is to be expected. The best lich/wizard should be some giant floating head or some withered old sage not some pretty tumblrite lady

>>97543053Why would you voluntarily turn yourself into a giant floating head?>some withered old sageOptional, if it's because you want to look like an old fuck that's acceptable. If you look like that because you never figured out eternal youth then it's a skill issue

>>97541372This image is so dumb. I get that sandworms can sense people stepping on sand because they can locate them through vibrations in the ground. This is logical and good, but how the fuck can a sand worm sense a dragon flying in the fucking air? So fucking dumb.>>97541438Is that supposed to be a dragon?

>>97543048>>97543048>Anon. It’s clearly a feminist self insert.Based on? >Aro has this strange obsession with smart girls.Based on? X2Note, you didnt say "aro has smart girls in her cyoa", you stated "strange obsession". So whats the evidence? Is there some observable pattern of Aro putting smart female characters in her cyoa against theme or reason? Is there a push in her writing to centralise those smart female characters? Are they repeatedly OP choices compared to other options? Is their intelligence emphasized over their male peers? Or is this just "aromage has female characters who happen to be smart in her cyoa"? >>97543053I like how definitive youre being over a fictional monster that does not exist and has no "actual" rules. Also, for immediately and visually conveying power both the demilich and "old fucker" options are flawed. The demilich - both in name and appearance - suggests a malformed or incomplete lich, it looks lesser than not greater than. Its like saying a dragon looks stronger without its wings, or if it couldnt breathe fire.Old fuckers are just necromancers (that step BELOW lichdom), they once again represent a regression visually. They evoke earlier steps on the path to becoming a lich (mage > old mage > skeleton/zombie mage). This is why BEAUTY is important as a differentiating factor, its unique, alien to the archetype. When everyone else is at best a rotting old corpse and you look like a supermodel you instantly stand out.
>>97543100>>97543093
>>97543100— Despite the name, a demilich was not a lesser lich, but rather a lich who had evolved beyond a need for its undead body.All the best liches become floating heads
Ultimate God where are thou?It's been countless eons since I partook in the role of Ultima.
>>97543111trips of truth btw
>>97543099You can't out-strenght a fucking dragon, idiot
>>97543111And thats fine. But it is not intuitive. When you see a demilich (and when you hear the name even) it implies something lesser than. If you want to emphasize the transcended nature, the fact that they have moved on beyond the need of a physical form. Making them an energy being is the way to go. Cyoa are a largely visual medium, image choice is important.
>>97543077>This is logical and good, but how the fuck can a sand worm sense a dragon flying in the fucking air?By relying on senses other than "sensing vibrations" (which is also dumb and impractical on the scales necessary)?
>>97543100>This is why BEAUTY is important as a differentiating factor, it’s unique, alien to the archetype. Beauty is subjective. A gem encrusted lich is certainly beautiful. If you think a tumblrite lady is acceptable, more power to your cringe tastes, I guess. There are elven liches in DnD that look gorgeous btw. They still don’t look like some tumblrite.
>>97543100>Is there some observable pattern of Aro putting smart female characters in her cyoa against theme or reason?Yes>Is there a push in her writing to centralise those smart female characters?Yes>Are they repeatedly OP choices compared to other options?Yes>Is their intelligence emphasized over their male peers? Yes
>>97543100>its unique, alien to the archetype. ”I’m not like other liches. I’m a gurl lich. Haha.”
>>97543129>Beauty is subjectiveOnly ugly people say this.
>that one aro cyoa where the brown girl god is the smartest of the gods lol
>>97543139You don’t find tortoises beautiful? Some ugly looking fish are pretty.
Shut the FUCK up gil
>>97543126>By relying on senses other than "sensing vibrations" (which is also dumb and impractical on the scales necessary)?That sand worm had 0 eyes so no sight, 0 ears (ears would get clogged by sand) so no hearing, and it could not have used taste to fucking taste the dragon when it is nowhere near it. So that leaves 1 sense beyond touch which would be to sense the vibrations in the ground, and that sense is smell, which is not realistic. Because the dragon is flying in the fucking air high above the ground and carried on the wind, so any smell particles would follow the wind and not go anywhere near the ground. So, as I said, the image is fucking unrealistic, and the artist who made it is dumb
>>97543134prove it
>>97543077>>97543116You can't out-ACKKKKK!!
>>97543151>what is heat sense/sensing bioelectricity/souls/whatever elseIts a giant sand worm
All I’m seeing is evidence that floating heads and sparkling skeletons are cool
>>97543135Women can't be liches? why? is lichood some sort of exclusive incel club?
>not coating his skeletal form in gold leafYou all suck at being lich
>>97543161Yes. Women aren't cut out for lichdom.
>>97543153Nexus Gateway
>>97543161A woman who wants to become a lich only does it for views on WizardTube. Allowing women into lichdom was a mistake.
>They stuck to skeletonsEither go ghost or just restore your physical form, don't stop halfway
>>97543151Buddy, whatever senses allow it to find prey through giant quantitites of earth would not be stopped by a couple hundred metres of air. Dune tier "vibration sensing" is nonsense magic, irl "vibration predators" are ambush hunters that lie under a small quantity of earth and just need to notice when something is literally stepping on them so they can quickly grab it.
>>97543163You want to look like this?
“In my demonstration ritual I will show you how to better preserve your skin as an undead spellcaster-““Nobody cares you disgusting whore” (his jaw falls off after he says this)
>>97543158>heat senseIt would be next to useless in a desert, as the top layer of sand would be really hot and blind the worm to anything above.>sensing bioelectricityYou are just throwing out words now>sense soulsSand worms can't do that, only magical creatures of high power can do that, like demons, angels, or genies.>whatever elseYou want this pic to make sense so bad, but it doesn't and never will
>>97543178>no breasts>but has a belly buttonplease tell me this is supposed to be a woman
>>97543179Kek, Liches are gross and smelly and unhygienic chuds/incels
>>97543182You don't have a belly button?
You aren’t a true autistic wizard if you don’t filth max and turn your tower into a hoarders dump
>>97543178Better than looking like this
A woman as a lich? Must be a fluke. They can’t do the necessary arcane maths. I wouldn’t trust it.
>>97542545>the jedi are evilIs this even a question?
>>97543175Rather than going ghost or restoring your physical form, you could take the chance to go beyond and craft yourself into an unstoppable weapon of destruction, like a dragonic chimera, some kind of warbot, or if you really can't stop yourself, robo-loli.
>>97543179Undead skincare routine does sound something a female lich would be into. They probably have cantrips for keeping their bodies warm and pussies moisturised.
>>97543180>would be useless in a desert because its too hotnot all deserts are hot, you also dont need the thing youre looking for to be hot, you just need it to be a different temperature to everything else. >>sensing bioelectricity>You are just throwing out words nowTok...You DO know living beings produce electricity right? You DO know that there are animals evolved to do it irl? Just take that (existing) ability, and magnify it to the same extent you need to do to everything else it takes to have giant sandworms function. >Sand worms can't do thatSure they can. Sensing magic or whatever isnt very hard, countless monsters can do it.
Women should not be wizards period

>>97543180Dune sandworms are literally psychic gods that preceive the future. They are more than qualified munch on some flying lizards.
>>97543201>warbot>robololithey're liches not techGODS
>>97543190>>97543205Women make the best users of the arcane arts. They treat magic and mana as their husband's bank account. Printing money to use it like the government on a deficit. However, women cannot surpass the top 2% of wizards, which are virgin men.
>>97543179>>97543202Honestly I can easily picture an undead focused youtube/tiktok equivalent with female lichs doing skin preservation tutorials just like they were makeup tutorials, only with a lot more screaming from people being tortured as part of the process.
>>97543188>Has phenomenal cosmic powers.>Doesn't even have an instantaneous cleaning spell.You are a failure
Women should be wizards because it makes me hornyWe just need more tomboys. The problem is in the vanity
>>97543100>Also, for immediately and visually conveying power both the demilich and "old fucker" options are flawed. A plain looking skull that creaks slightly and obliterates the kingly looking lich is cool, though. Like Szass Tam meeting Larloch; the former is a regal lich king of a magocratic nation who still has flesh on his bones, while the latter is completely skeletal and withered and is arguably the most powerful (top 3) spellcaster in the setting. The thing about magic is that it’s very much associated with age. The ancients are revered.
>>97543213>he doesn't know where to buy an off the shelf robololiI bet you don't even have deals selling soul engines to power tech.
>>97543204>You DO know living beings produce electricity right? You DO know that there are animals evolved to do it irl?Animals that can sense bioelectricity (electroreception) include sharks, rays, skates, platypuses, echidnas, dolphins and catfish. Can you guess what all these animals have in common? Being underwater animals.... Is a sandworm under water anon?>Sensing magic or whatever isn't very hardDragons can hide their magic, it isn't very hard
>>97543208you should give titles more mechanical impact
>>97543215Just say you hate women and have never had sex before
>>97543230I'm defending women, though. They're superior to men on average. They just can't beat the top 2% of arcane cocks.
>>97543211>Dune sandworms are literally psychic gods that preceive the futureNo they’re retarded
>>97543231Cope more retardMusk and Tesla has lots of sex
>>97543236But that chart is exactly my point???
>>97543216>Baby powder is literally made of babies.>Regular virgin blood baths.>Facemasks stripped from youthful human skins.This would unironically make female Lichs much more feared than the males.
>>97543238>However, women cannot surpass the top 2% of wizards, which are virgin men.Plenty of male geniuses produced lots of kids
>>97543232You too.
>>97543242I never said they stay virgins, Anon. Which can be inferred from my post saying the women can't beat the top 2% of Arcane cock. The women in the top percentile are defeated by the virgin male who then claims a top tier waifu. This is how it works across all arcane schools of magic.

>>97545131Its hard to try and seriously pretend a cyoa was made by someone who was last in the thread years before most of the current anons, at least with rake its technically possible
>>97545161I mean, I have proof that one of the two made it, but I don't want to ruin whatever troll they're doing by hiding this from the thread.
>>97545161Why would rake lie about it?
>>97543250You fool that wizard had just lost to the pussy. There is a reason top 2% of spellcasters are virgins. The waifus distract you from orbmaxxing and suck out your mana trough your cock. They are like succubus I tell you. This is one of the main reasons ancient wizards turn into lolis to preserve their powers.
>>97543768>Tell me about the female human CYOA author known as "Aromage".>Why are certain members of this "/cyoag/" community obsessed with her?Before my time, but the old guard used to say that when she came to 4chan, Aromage had a very leftwing/SJW/PC persona. Which meant that she quickly became a favorite target of the trolls and shitposters.Later, she started to take grief for using a lot of pop culture/franchise characters in her cyoas.
>>97545240virgins and their copes istg>ancient wizards turn into lolisto be railed
>>97545248Of course, the ancient male wizard turned loli, will steal magic power from their rivals trough their cocks, the added lightness is for better mana milking. There is a reason why lolis are the most powerful spellcasters.

what was the name of that one where you are being offered a leadership position/generalship/big monster role in either the dark, the light or the neutral side during the final apocalyptic war for a world? I recall the Crow, who switched sides, the demon gullet, the hily giant stone statue, the evil 'elemental final boss' were all options. This ringing any bells?
>>97545568>The guy is a meme and obviously suffers from Dunning KruegerSo he's literally you?
>>97545568Elon Musk is a mega-autist that was born to the right family and willing to debase himself for fake influence. The only thing he's good at is distracting from the trillion dollar hedge funds and their handlers.
>>97545485>18 years latetake me back bros.
>>97545586The Dunning Krueger, maybe? I had moments were I thought I was more intelligent than I was, nothing as bad as Elon though. And my fuck ups are not in plain sight for everyone to see how pathetic I am.And the meme part... absolutely not. I am not famous for being dumb unlike him. Why do you feel the need to defend him? Are you still in the "he will make us go to Mars!" phase? Or are you one of those "If he is right wing and fights leftist I have to like him!"? Because thats also dumb.Accepting dumb people are dumb is universal, none is forgiven

>>97545616>Are you still in the "he will make us go to Mars!" phase?I'm actually in my "who's that guy again" phase. He's not relevant to my existence.
>>97545650this but tok
Whenever I say “you’re retarded”, or “you’re stupid”, or “you’re an idiot”, I very rarely use it literally and wholly, since even a literal idiot might know something you don’t, and will humble you. Knowledge is humble. You might be an idiot in an area, but not an idiot in another. You might lack knowledge in an area, but be knowledgeable in another. Because again, there are brilliant Chinese mathematicians in China who have shrines dedicated to Mao in their bathrooms. You can have a high mental capacity and still be a drooling moron. Like a socially inept autistic person.
>>97545650Weird that you felt the need to try to insult me then. But I guess its 4chan.
>>97545683I wanted to joke about about Anon in general, more specifically the kind that goes "Nah, I'd win" even in the bleakest situations.Otherwise, like the post above says, I can't really judge the competency of anyone through this medium, so as an insult it's dumb.
>>97545556Yeah, but due to your abilities mutating in the pathway switch, you might get something similar. Like, reviving in your avatar instead of history fog (reminiscent of how it is at high sequences for error), or reviving in a pre-established anchor in the spirit world, or something.Seeing how the advancement ritual for miracle invoker requires something involving history to begin with, some of your previous powers might get history-related adjustment.

>>97545679Chinese people are funny. They brag about AI driven “robotaxis” but they end up causing chaos on the roads. Even their robots are bad drivers.
>>97545727>Chinese>"People"Bit of an oxymoron innit?
>>97545649thanks!

>>97545734Hey, I'll take Jackie Chan over any Americunt celebrity ever.
>>97545788Has that cyoa been solved btw? It was a bit before my time so I sadly missed the discourse around it.
>>97539763Thank you, these are the exact kind of suggestions I was hoping for.>>97539768Yes, I pixelated it to avoid spoilers but uploaded the illegible version so anons know it is being worked on. I'm uncomfortable with the idea of WIP posting but don't want to leave anons in the dark. This is my attempt at reconciling both otherwise mutually incompatible goals.>>97539788A god amongst men.>>97539815I assure you it is real. It will require a couple more months but it will exist. I'll be using your choice of starting location to expound on lore, but might need another page of lore. I doubt it though, the factions should be enough.>>97544960Thank you, that is a good insight. I'm slightly unsure of quests that aren't baked into the premise since they put expectations on anons, but an events section is brilliant- it allows anon to make his own quests while keeping up the sense of urgency. I think the CYOA will have the cheat section for determining initial power, the augments section for customizing it, a location section for lore, and an NPC section where you choose your allies, rivals, and nemesii. Allies can be ignored entirely to gain more augments but this will make life harder. I liked how Spirit Conscript did its NPCs so each character will have a bit on their personality, powers, and fighting style and then a little blurb on what their goals will be depending on their relation to the player, including neutral default ambitions. After this, there will be a threat section, describing what else you're up against, which you can worsen for more allies/augments, and an events section, for additional lore and things to do. So far I'm unsure if I need to have a separate faction section going over each one's specific forces and lore, or if it would be better to keep them more as part of the background. Breaking the stalemate in their centuries-spanning war will be your default goal, but betraying the world will also be possible.
>>97545960Dracolich and titan are the best, obviously.

>>97543182A quick google tells me that they're part of a genderless race of mineral people.While the character apparently starts out as more innocent/female coded in appearance they go through quite a lot of character development and end up much more male coded in both looks and behaviour but still being fairly androgynous overall.
I'm in a deathy mood today. There any CYOAs about being a Psychopomp?
>>97546259Entropist!!!!
>>97538863I vastly prefer power systems that are not just be simply about "becoming stronger" ad infinitum, but becoming something more: obtaining power involves transformation into a superior lifeform, which grants abilities unavailable to inferior beings; each level of power is also be a level of existence.
>>97546271... That seems to be a CYOA about being a Death Mage, not about being a Psychopomp?
>>97546259The Ocean of Salasjaíde got a big update recently and is entirely afterlife centric, albeit with a magic bent. It is surreal and doesn't go all-in on the psychopompery, though. It is also too big to post on /tg/. Here is a link to it:>https://imgchest.com/p/wl7l25p2q4x
Get along, try again>>97546349>>97546349>>97546349
>>97546259i have kill the heavens and chain of isekai builds that fit the description, but neither cyoa is specifically for thati think fixing god's fuckups lets you do it, you can build practically anything as your race there, including far weirder things than psychopomps, but it's not very specific to any such theme eitherafterlife of spells sort of flirts with the theme in several ways, but isn't really that either>>97546342interesting you'd mention it just after i wrote about it, didn't know there was an update but it's not really that huge from what i can see
