>>98085594Nice job as always anon.
...Anons... I miss you...
>>98086824I missed you too, anon! MWAH!>>98085531https://files.catbox.moe/6ebnx3.pngUpdated chart, let me know if I missed any more updates.
>>98086824Any Anons you miss in particular?
>>98086824>>98087091Oops, sorry, I missed you both. I bet this next bullet has your names lovingly carved on it. Do not worry anons
>>98087456Gun school... home...
Bros, we aren't even averaging 1 post per hour.
>>98088273Its the friday before a holiday weekend. The only reason im posting here now is because im taking a shit and have nothing better to do.
>>98088273The SC craze died down, so we are back to how it was before. It's been a while. And to think secret hours were pretty active last thread, all the anons remained there instead of moving on.
>>98088322>SC craze is dedshut up your face star wars fuck
>>98088336Anon, I didn't say SC is dead, I said the craze died down, it's not the same. Or are you trying to deny that 10 posts in 15 hours isn't dead?I hate star wars too, and I'm not saying SC is done for and that we should move on. But the state of the current thread is an undeniable fact.
>>98088285I've literally never once in my life gotten on the phone while in the bathroom.Is everyone in the world constipated or something? There's no time to do anything on your phone in the bathroom unless you're deliberately waiting because you enjoy the literal shitty environment.
>>98088486My man has clearly never worked a salaried job before. I get paid the same whether im taking a nap in the bathroom or busting my ass doing pointless shit for accounting.
>>98088486Sometimes the shitty environment is better than working 5 minutes longer.
>>98085531vibes
>>98089070The fuck is grandma rizz and isn't Satya in her twenties or am I misremembering?
>>98089109she has a hot grandma vibe idk her age
>>98089070>>98089123I kinda see it desu.
>>98089070Real ones have retard rizz.
>>98089070explanations
>>98089070whore rizz must be the most powerful form of rizz
>>98089258Not by a long shot
>>98089292well purely from the result perspective the whores do have the largest harems. So its clearly the most powerful rizz
>>98089333This anon is in a polycule with 5 other uggos
What builds get one shot by transiguration turning their brain into stomach acid?
>>98089341Mine
>>98089341there are a lot of counters to it mind splitting, precogs, speedblitz, illumination of the mind, etc. So I guess not a lot of builds are gonna be one shoted that easily.
>>98089366Even if we count the precogs, that's not a lot.
>>98089493You missed the point of that post. Most of the victims have a way to avoid it.
>>98089515Then you missed the point of the post before that. It's about who gets one shot, not who wouldn't sit still and die to an incoming attack.
huh... illumination of the heart doesn't protect from poison
>>98089070Whats the type chart for this? What rizz is super effective against another?
>>98085531I wrote a side story: Childish Games (Mr. Black, Logan Ace, side mention of Hisako and Yuusha)https://rentry.org/5bsf9hahLet me know if I got the characterizations right or there is any discrepencies I need to address.
>>98089599The description says it has strict limitations and skilled users are "nudging" the changes, so I think literally nobody gets one shotted.
>>98089634O MY ARTISTRY WANK
>>98089634That refers to altering the size, anon.>Though this Technique’s material limits are strict, a skilled animator can nudge them in their favor up to the largest human sizes, , and in theory mutate an undefended opponent into a horrifying blasphemy of form with a mere touchSo one tap and you're pretty much cooked
>>98089677>in theoryso not in practice
>>98089696>>98089658
>>98089696
>>98089703if this author of all people only says it's in theory, then you know it's garbo
>>98089493I keep forgetting Koban is immune to contact abilities
>>98089726nta, but he's really immune. A touch with enough power or some sort of anti-defense hax can slip through and get him too.
huh... so how exactly would someone kill a encompassing world avatar if they pick something intangible like absolute force conduction as a medium?
>>98089726>>98089770Meant to say he's NOT really immune.
>>98089772Punch hard enough and it'll work itself out. The Mika/Hisako/Jaku/Koban/etc special.
>>98089770which of his abilities grants touch immunity?
>>98089772Kill the space-time fabric around the intangible medium.
>>98089770>>98089782Yea pretty much, unless he's in Stance. His Living World Refolding makes it so that affecting him with contact-based abilities requires going through all the layersSo you're right he isn't immune by default, but can be sometimes
>>98089787what if it just absorbs it? its force, wouldn't it just add more of the medium to it, its like fighting fire with fire.
>>98089795The base version of Living World Refolding. Any touch attack needs to first penetrate all the layers before it can work. So someone like Arjava can't transfigure him, but if someone strong enough to hurt him had transfigure they'd be able to use it on him.
>>98089805>its like fighting fire with fire.Firefighters literally do this with explosives.
>>98089805Don't think it would change anything. Even if they try to merge with the incoming force it doesn't mean they can wrest control of it away from the punch-chad's aura. Might even screw themselves over because now their body is on both sides of the clash and they're taking twice the damage.
>>98089805>its force, wouldn't it just add more of the medium to itnot reallyif you push a box, you're adding a force in one directionif someone on the other side also pushes the box, are you absorbing their force? no, your forces are cancelling each otherforce still needs a vector, punching still works
>>98089493Mozumaru overall is susceptible to transfiguration, but not specific body parts. He technically doesn't need any specific body organ thanks to Lich's Ratling Bones unless it fails for a long time.
>>98089629Bro, don't spoil stuff that's supposed to go into threadslave notes.
>>98089848But I'm writefag shy.
>>98089867Don't come complaining if your stuff gets missed down the line.
>>98089877 any bromance ideas?
>>98089877Understandable.
>>98089887Ronin and Kuro, but I don't have an explanation, they just seem like they'd vibe at the end of their rivalry.
>yeah WEA says it mitigates most forms of physical damage>but actually if you get punched it will still hurt you because uhhhhhhh I said so
>>98089897Maybe something like this?
>>98089904>The user may only embody a limited quantity of any given medium, and will only incur harm or death if the medium they embody is destroyed or dissipated.
>>98089799I know his layers are way stronger than usual but how many does he have?
>>98089904Corecucks having trouble admitting they're fodder like always
incase anyone wants to check point totals, this has convenient slidershttps://www.desmos.com/calculator/t0hs04fe8e
>>98089930literally read the very next sentencepunching an intangible object will not "dissipate" it
>>98089904hmm... shadow conduction would pretty much be immune to any physical attacks, they could probably only be harmed by strong light based attacks.
>>980899419 layers! Also updated the build, with Signature Stance now! It will make for some funny scenes with Koban making silly poses.
>>98089952kinetic force is not intangible, otherwise it would not be able to affect other thingsit's just the very worst element you can fuse into, literally everyone can access kinetic force
>>98089955Shadow's dogshit for that. The shadows are tangible fabric. The gaseous, energy, and liquid ones are far better.
>>98089955Fun fact, the shadows from Shadow Conduction are a tangible thing, like a layer of silk or fabric, strong as leather. They aren't actual shadows.
>>98089955>The user creates tangible shadowsvery first line>Because its fabric is so durable and shock-absorbent, it can defend and cushion against heavy blows or weapons, strangle or bind an opponent, or rappel and pull objects, all in addition toblocking and nullifying light completely.literally the opposite of what you're saying
>>98089958Nine on Signature is kinda crazy, what a tanky goof. Also Signature Invincible Stance?
>>98089955It's "durable and shock-absorbant" making it far from the worst conduction to turn into for survival, but like everyone else said it's still physical as a conduction.
>>98089958hmm... you would also need to make it a special technique if you want to change the rules about the stance. Signature doesn't change the mechanics just makes the existing powers stronger.
>>98085531Are the prisms from Merciful Recidivism consumable? And are they mobvable or do they stay stuck in place?
>>98089975>>98089976>>98089980>>98090023damn, so its just cloth conduction, guess the creator was too embaressed that they made cloth conduction and named it shadow conduction to sound cooloer.
>>98090041That's fair. What if what changed is the sheer number of stances? Instead of 108 there's a lot more and they include weird ones like jojoposing.
>>98090061sounds like a waste of an alteration but it'd make up for the sheer wankery done with refolding
>>98089987How tough are 9 layers with signature?
>>98090061it's free with untrained artistry
I wonder how good something like legendary weaponry is on its own
>>98090061Swapping what the stance looks like sounds like that special technique to me.
>>98090103nta, but it doesn't sound like swapping as much as expanding. It's not giving something up in exchange for something new, just adding more of what it already did. And that's a signature technique, right?
>>98089629You got a solid chuckle out of me. I enjoyed it. None of the characters are mine though, so I can't offer any advice on that end.
>>98090061If it's just a cosmetic change, I don't think you even need to spend an alteration.
>>98090124Nta but yeah, that's pretty much it.
>>98090151Glad you like the story anon, unfortunately I am devoid creativity, so I kind of depend on getting inspiration from thread interactions.
>>98090124NTA, but adding a few stances sounds like it should be possible, as long as you add a reasonable number of stances.
>>98090169Yeah, but seeing stuff people talked about turn into writing is always good fun. Hopefully we get some more thread interactions to fuel you.
>>98090178There's already 108, it's not like it'll change much mechanically. What I'm more interested in is how Signature would affect the attack part of the ability.
>>98090196it just raises its attack power like if it was Building level then it would be city block level or something like that.
>>98090124Isn't Signature just about cranking up technique's stats while special is about fancier changes in return for some trade-off? If Signature could do any upgrade possible, then what would special 's point be? Swapping some stances for another sounds like special to me, because almost certainly the moves required to enter them and the attacks possible would be better and worse in some situations.
>>98090219yeah, it just boosts the power of the ability. But increasing the quantity does sound like cranking the technique up as long as it follows the mechanics of the technique.
>>98090250To me it doesn't sound like a straightforward power buff but this is not a hill I'm willing to die on.
>>98090267Its semantics anyway since they both cost the same investment.
>>98090267well how would you empower something locus distortion? without increasing the quantity?
>>98089948Thanks for this. Will be very useful for my audit.
>>98090276It's because they cost the same that I bring it up in the first place. It shouldn't be that Signature is just straight up better because it's just a Special with no tradeoff.>>98090282Not every technique is suitable for Signature:>Some Techniques have obvious room for improvement, where others don’t.
We don't even know how every one of the 108 stances look, saying "the stances are changed from base" is just a pretense. Take your attack buff and put my fries in the bag.
>>98090293Do the stances add more versatility or is it just fluff for a power boost?
>>98090293doesn't this just mean that it has non obvious forms of improvement, like increasing the quantity?
>>98090319>Your Signature Technique is empowered to the point of madness, with an increased raw power much greater than what’s explicitly stated>raw powerAgain, what would be the point of Special Technique if Signature could just upgrade whatever it wants?
>>98090306I thought fluff because it'd make for funny scenes since he has klutz.>>98090323Special is for adding new mechanics instead of increasing the ones already there.
>>98090323well yeah, in the case of teleportation it has more raw power to target more people.
>>98090330Special isn't for adding new mechanics, it's about altering them, it specifically requires that tradeoff.
>>98090336Yeah you're right I didn't say it properly, my bad.
>>98090335wait... I guess in the case of locus distortion you could reduce the cooldown to bellow that of one second.
>>98090323>Again, what would be the point of Special Technique if Signature could just upgrade whatever it wants?nta, but I think you're underestimating what special is for. Special is for adding entirely new functions. The point is that you're not upgrading the technique as much as changing what it's primary functions are. For example, if the attacks were replaced with a speed buff where you move extremely fast for a few seconds instead of hitting really hard, that would be a special technique.Adding more stances is an upgrade, and it's still basically the same technique but better, therefore that's a signature technique.
>>98089629Cool. Some words were missing here and there, and I think some names got switched in the direct dialogue, but it maintained meaning. Seeing Mr. Black creting a new archetype of cards specifically to counter a deck just like Kaiba was cool.I'm not sure how canon we can consider it since one of the characters was retired and I think people were treating last run as not existing but it was a fun read.I think turning random thread interactions into bigger pieces is a bit underrated, there is nothing wrong with that and it can be really fun.But you really shouldn't put content in spoilers, I almost missed it.
>>98090406I just got home from work, let me take comb through the story again and do some editing.Yeah I don't mind this story ending up being uncanon, I just want to write something light hearted to get into the groove again.If you're curious, pic related is the card that was gifted to Logan Ace.
>>98090515I don't know much about card games but making cards for builds could be fun
>>98090515ngl, that's a cool mix of a believable card and effects that match the character closely. Good stuff.
>>98090515>I just want to write something light hearted to get into the groove again.Honestly that's a good idea in general. I should do that too sometimes.>spoilerI remember that one, it was cool last run too.
>>98085531Shamelessly posting the story again without spoilers and edited.Childish Games (Mr. Black, Logan Ace, side mention of Hisako and Yuusha)https://rentry.org/5bsf9hah
>>98090708Here, take this congratulatory (You) for posting it without the spoilers.
>>98090406>plays back to back graceful charities and pot of greeds, and says victory requires overwhelming card advantage>forces Logan to accept and take in 16 Abyssal Morphlings, cards he as never seen before because Mr. Black bought all printed copies and gloats its an exclusive privilege to own a that many of them in your deck even temporarily>provides to dumpster Logan's entire gadget strategy with searching and ultimate offering to swarm the field>Logan only wins because he asspulled a trap card monster that gained lifepoints per draw when Mr. Black forced him to draw 8,7 of which were Abyssal morphlings dealing 3500 lifepoints in a 4k lifepoint game.Peak Yugioh 10/10
>>98090708Nice work.I can't complain about spoilers when I cold post with only the link out of shame mist if the time.
If we had to decide which card game to import our characters into which one would you pick?
>>98090965Yu-Gi-Oh is the one I know the most about, and the only one I can play reasonably well, so I guess that one? I don't even know many alternatives, I know of Magic but never played it, and I know the pokemon card game. I also remember a cool little game that even had an anime where you paid summoning costs in gems, I had the little gems as a kid and that's why it stuck in my mind but I don't remember what it was called.
>>98090046I would assume the prism isn't consumed upon use since it doesn't mention that, but even if it is you can just create another one or have several in a location you plan to frequent often - the 12 aura cost only really matter if you're using it every single day. Similarly, it's probably movable since it doesn't say its locked in place, but its very fragile glass and will likely shatter unless you have some special means of moving it.>>98090965Slay the Spire.
>>98091269>Slay the Spire.That's a cool one. I don't know if it's really a card game but it's really fun, and it would be a lot more involved than making just a couple cards for each character.
>>98091269>the 12 aura cost only really matter if you're using it every single dayFor who? Even shallow pools should be fine with it since it's barely more than half of what they have. I guess it would be a problem for a shallow+Ambivalent, because at that point it's like 70% of the pool and it starts hurting but that's a very niche case. Unless you have to fight that day it's not that bad, and for a Vast pool it's just a nap away from full.Anyway, good to know, it seems reasonable. It gives me an idea, but it's just a dumb joke so it's not that important.
I don't see any way civilized society can exist in this world.As soon as you try to open a muffin shop someone will blow it up and teleport to another dimension.
>>98089897Not bad, but I raise you Kuro and Hajun, because it would be really funny for Kuro to wield Hajun like a sword (his teeth count as bladed weapons).>>98090965Seconding Slay the Spire
>>98091482Anon, we went over this already. 90% of the city is made of G0 to G1 scrubs at most, G2s are very rare and G3s are almost unheard of. The shit you describe is unreachable for pretty much anyone that isn't a PC or a millenary elder.
>>98091494
>>98091549Heh
imagine going all in basing your build on a single technique then leaving your affinity at G2
>>98091945name em and shame em
>>98091948my cousin Greg
>>98091959why did he make his build like that
>>98091970he's a faggot and my uncle beats himstrangely enough its my uncle on my mother's side who beats him, while he's from my father's side of the familydunno how that happens
>>98091504G2 and g3 should be pretty common among aura users sure you have the non aura users masses at 99%, but like shallow generalist/specialist is the average among aura users and they can use g2 or g3 so there should be a fuck ton of them, like almost every companion at least has g2 and a few of them have g3.
>>98092311according to the cyoa G3's haven't been seen in a hundred years so unlikelythat's right, the BBEGs are rocking G2s
>>98092345which is instantly contradicted by having multiple companions with G3 affinity in this generation alone.
>>98092376which ones actually definitely have G3s?
>>98092380kikuro, futaba, dr. aki, ayano, yomi, Mai, Ming Yue, Arisa, Ryoko.Might be more, but I am too lazy to check, but its still like 1/4 of the companions
>>98092429nta but Kikuro and Arisa aren't guaranteed to be G3 - both of their Legendary Techs only require G2 Alchemy. Still a lot though.Also christ, like all of the G3 in Alchemy except Yomi and Mai.
>>98092453yeah and there is also a possibility that a lot of them have g3 affinity but don't have g3 favorite techniques. What would even be funnier is that they do have a g3 technique but they just don't like it and didn't include it in the favorite technique list.
>>98089070Whore rizz!? The fuck you think I'm about???>>98089629>>98090708Yeah, this was fun goofy. Not what I expected from a creepy freak build like Señor Negro. The Kyomi bit was offputting in a way I don't think was intentional since it reflected on Logan really weirdly, but he isn't my build so I won't judge on that much.No issues with Yuusha on my end. She don't know what a bellhop is, but it sounds degrading enough that she can tell it ain't a compliment!Also, there's no harm in mimic money if you just spend it all right away! Not our problem anymore!
>>98092471I kinda wound up pulling that with Gabriel. It just feels weird to me to list a passive as a "favorite technique".I've been suffering from some medical issues lately, so I haven't been able to focus on writing as much as I'd like. I'm still following the thread though.
>>98092661take care, hope you get better
>>98091494how would these two meet? I might be able to work the budding bromance in my writefag
>>98092509>Yeah, this was fun goofy. Not what I expected from a creepy freak build like Señor Negro.A couple of factors for that, its due to Mr. Black's drawbacks Eccentric and Magmatic, its due to being mind split so many times and worn so many faces he probably has disociative identity issues and three why can't weird creepy people have fun goofy hobbies?>The Kyomi bit was offputting in a way I don't think was intentional since it reflected on Logan really weirdly, but he isn't my build so I won't judge on that much.I have to wait for Logan anon to provide his feedback, but according to his build, Logan is came from the mortal world, is a loner kleptomaniac with yandere tendancies and has a passion for cosplay. His build also participated in the previous SC mp and has watched Kyomi's streams, if you extrapolate from all of that he probably has parasocial tendancies.The entire meeting is engineered for Mr. Black to gauge Logan's character and to mediate their information exchange without extortion or theft on neutral ground in a formal and civil way, it is a rigged from start to finish and very transactional. From the coin flip to the game rules and even down to the questions being asked, he knows Logan has been investigating him and he knows if he told the truth in such a blunt manner without a hint of lies or deceit that is going to throw Logan off his game. Up to this point, Logan has dealt with nothing but subterfuge, misinformation and half truths due to the way he gathers intel and carries himself with the rest of Youdu, causing him to second guess and doubt every word spoken during that meeting, even the very last loaded question that Mr. Black asks, the outcome doesn't really change, it can be ANY vtuber that Logan follows and Mr. Black could have morphed into that character and acted it up and gave away some merch (which he certainly would have access to)
>>98092509>>98093352>I have to wait for Logan anon to provide his feedbackI wasn't planning to say anything for a couple of reasons, one is that I already retired Logan so I didn't think anyone would care, and I will get to the other one later, but I guess since there seems to be some interest I will say my piece.Logan is very much out of character for the whole thing, even if we assume the last run did happen. He wouldn't be nearly as nervous and stuttering constantly in that situation, he's not scared of Mr. Black, he thinks he's individually stronger than him and doesn't fight him head on because it's meanningless not because he's afraid, there is no point in killing random replaceable mass. Even in case real danger happens he has Lunar Eon which would automatically activate and allow him to flee, so being scared or nervous makes no sense. How factually true that is doesn't matter, it's simply what he thinks.Old Logan didn't care that much for Kyomi, as I vaguely remember pointing out back then already but it's been a while. He kept the streams in the background as he did other things. New Logan would have more free time but would act mostly the same, he doesn't give that much importance to that kind of stuff.Now for the good stuff. In this specific case I don't mind it too much because the whole thing was otherwise well structured, Logan's outward demeanour was wrong but the overall outcome would have been the same. The spoiler part is an accurate assessment of the situation form Logan's perspective, so even if he didn't show it he would be doubting everything and trying to read between the lines. Even without the emotional attachment he would be swept up in the game enough to accept some random rare merch, he's still a collector even if not in an obsessive parasocial way, and he would have fun playing cards as much as he would hate to admit it. And he would still be curious enough to "waste" the last question on knowing what happened to a VTuber.
>>98093352>>98093586The second reason why I didn't mind him acting that way is that this all started by comparing Mr. Black to Kaiba and Logan to Yugi, and this more timid demeanor makes him very similar to young Yugi.Overall I don't think it's a bad thing, it's not supposed to be a serious piece, canon or not, and it does what it sets out to do well. The meaning is clear even if the details may be inaccurate. I don't have any problems in accepting it as is in the end, and would probably come up with some reason to explain the discrepancies if I wanted to keep it going instead of asking for any changes.Last but not least, I know I'm bad at describing characters by now, and writing my characters without some reference of how I write them seems to always end in a similar way. I can only take it as a reason to get better at it, if it keeps happening then I'm clearly doing something wrong.I really shouldn't have put that yandere comment there but I didn't even think people would seriously read the romance section.
>>98093586>I wasn't planning to say anything for a couple of reasons, one is that I already retired Logan so I didn't think anyone would careI assumed Logan was still an active character, because there was a bunch recent updates to his relationships.>Logan is very much out of character for the whole thingThat's fair you can treat the story as not canon, I just wanted to write something
>>98093789>I just wanted to write somethingnta but that's the right mentality when it comes down to it. We shouldn't be afraid of writing someone else's character wrong. If it's really bad, the anon will tell you and you can make the appropriate changes afterwards if they're necessary
>>98093586How goes the new knife guy build btw?
>>98093789>I assumed Logan was still an active character, because there was a bunch recent updates to his relationships.That's my fault too. I was very indecisive about it even if I did talk about it before. Between getting stuck as far as inspiration goes and also getting sick I decided that it was better to retire Logan. I should have probably posted it in the new thread too intead of just the secret hours but I didn't want to spam.The cult can stay, the new character would pretty much replace Logan there, and I am working on writing down all the fluff for the new character as well, but since I got sick it will take a bit. It's better to not drag the thread down in this situation so I'm holding onto it until then.>I just wanted to write somethingNothing wrong with that, and I liked the story for what it was.>>98093842I aggree with this too. We don't have to be perfect, mistakes can be fixed in many different ways and from different angles. You can edit the story after, or you can come up with a reason why the character was acting different. In the end it's supposed to be collaborative.
