Welcome home fangers, I guess you were missed after all.
What kind of autism is causing this? Genuinely I don't see why they go through all the effort for no benefit.
>>98257492Every MP ever out of nowhere!
>>98257478just give it up shitpires
>>98257486no its just one remaining holdout copying shit over to pretend like its not dead
>>98257492Anime/Japanese, Cultivation/Chinese and schoolslop, including closely related adventures. These are your three choices and no other. Guess you didn't get the memo.
So what’ll it be fellas?Jrpg Traitor autism or Vampire faggotry?
>>98257409What builds are the most fuckable, and the least fuckableranked.
>>98257512I liked vampires. It didn't seem bad to me.
>>98257515>S TierAbbyNoire
>>98257520okay now imagine you were a faggot and rank the dudes
It's been a few days of everyone letting JRPG have the spotlight. I'm not all that optimistic given what we've seen. However, I'm sure there are at least a few anons genuinely interested in JRPG so they can save it if they put in effort. If nothing else the chibi drawer is having fun.
The parasite is going to ruin the thread again anyway. Unless someone knows of a wicked colon cleanser?
>>98257531If I was a fag I'd think I'd be into fat guys so Bram
>>98257536>saving jrpg>its been like 3 days, they haven't even startedThis is why we bullied you, vampire.
>>98257537There’s this burrito place where I live. It does terrible things to your butt.
Sylen should make one for Werewolf
>>98257409Greed getting Wanderer'd and leaving Bram all alone in Fighter is kinda funny
>>98257550Nah, it should be for hunters instead so we can use both cyoas side by side and make hoonters to hoont the fangers.
>>982575414 arms are good in bed
>>98257543>vampire not mentioned once in my post>"but what about vampire"This is why I don't have any faith in jrpg. It's powered by autistic spite and power discussions. In other words it's spirit conscript all over again.
>>98257558no it's not
>>98257554leave the fighter space for the true warriors not domination abusing minion cucks
>>98257558SC wasn't power by autistic spite and power discussion though? That was unironically the SC haters trying to kill it off by drowning it in dogshit so people would disengage. Same for JRPG right now.
>>98257570Literally every SC thread was debates about powers and the thing started because people didn't like two shonen mps in a row.
>>98257574Crazy how people will just try to manifest their delusions like this.
>>98257558now make your next 20 posts about jrpg being set up for failure, so you can try and kill it in the crib. sneaky scheming shitpires
>>98257586Okay well the archives are there. If you've forgotten you can just go check.
>>98257593Projection. Leave it to a sneaky schemer to see sneaky schemes everywhere.
>>98257601a sneaky subversion argument that turns my statement against me. Who would do such a thing? sneaky sneaky scheming fagpires...
>>98257558I don't think the anons talking about the vampire thing are even playing jrpg. The anons with builds just talked about wanting a fantasy mp and picked something. It wasn't realted to vampires at all
>>98257409Waiter, Waiter! More sup-par pixel art please!Anyways, I hope that his bio isn’t too bloated (holy 6.1k words Batman!), but I haven’t written a build a while and I had a lot of fun with making a story out of this one. His abilities and how he uses them are also interwoven with his Bio, so you can at least read it for that purpose if you like. As always, any criticisms (or God forbid reminders of wrong math) are welcome. The Heretical Machinist(Golem Crafter): “Monster Maker” Markushttps://rentry.co/84tak3b
>>98257654cool rentry, anonvery viewable
>>98257654Markus has already been defeated by his rentry link.His monsters are laid to rest.
>>98257409Added Greed's faceclaim to the rentryIt's funny because I want to do that bromance/rival/mentor prompt but because I'm currently unaware of how we should be doing the evil party (if we are doing that at all even) I don't know how to place Greed lmao.One thought I had was have her initially be with the party and then... be a JRPG Traitor, but I don't know if I feel like writing that or if that would be good for how I wanna take her; being aligned with the party at all for a time. Also hard for a betrayal to matter if its immediate, it becomes less "how could you" and more "what the- ASSHOLE! KILL YOURSELF!" which is admittedly very funny.
>>98257658>>98257662It was simply too much for rentry to handle. We will never get pixel kino again.
>>98257668Clearly Greed is actually Abaddon's birth mother who the party lived with for a time until they discovered her true identity just ignore the races. Also nta, don't take me seriously. The mental health and brattiness runs in the family.
>>98257680Implying she'd ever let a Demihuman hitShe's not old enough to be Abby's mother unfortunately kek
>>98257680>>98257690Actually wouldn't a Demihuman-Demon Hybrid still be able to mate with a human and produce another? Or does crossing the wires make one infertile like a mule
>>98257654>20 minutes agobro is struggling with that rentry
>>98257654if I were a less generous person, I would create a rentry mocking you with that same url just to rub salt in the wound
>>98257654Were you the one who made sprites of the cast last time JRPGT ran?
>>98257711Marakchud's too recent for that
>>98257690You never know, those male mind flayers might have some crazy rizz.Yeah, that's also fair. I wasn't sure since age is ??? and her powers mean she doesn't age physically.
>>98257714Did that pixel anon ever come back? FE has been never ever so he must've done something else at least.
>>98257726I like to think all anons never leave and just lurk quietly
>>98257730I wish I could swap some of the vocal anons with some of the ones who went quiet if that's the case.
>>98257654MARKUS WHERES THE WORKING LINK MARKUS
>>98257783I think he went to sleep. Seems kinda representative of him as an author too.
>>98257804the sleep strat so you can wake up to all those yous
>>98257409Which builds have the most protag energy?Which have the most antag energy?Who has the most sidekick energy?
>>98257848whichever one has the best faceclaim
>>98257654oh...uh....guess I deleted the "c" at the end. woops.https://rentry.co/84tak3bc
>>98257890What are you talking about? the link worked fine
>>98257898That was a good read, pretty fun too. The description of Angstroms corpse was cool.I'm assuming he will take a liking to Oswinwalden
>>98257668Do the prompt for fun
https://rentry.org/BramBramFightIt's just Bram bullying a squid
>>98258146Bram RAPES and GAPES a squid
>>98256510>MHBW. It got an update but no new runGot a link for it?One of the downsides of how we do things is probably how no one bothers to archive cyoas made for this thread so they're kinda lost media if you don't post them in cyoag too or search archives for them>threadslave notesThey used to not even bother archiving every MP, they don't save stuff that doesn't get an MP
>>98257409What would you guys say using the elemental line on ESS:KIB would give you?Like what could you do with that?
>>98258321you would am become Death
>>98258321meat magic
>>98257409For the summoners what are the domains of their main summons?
can someone just make the gigalich and become the main villain already
no one is willing to take the responsibility to write an important character
>>98258785I think you need more points than the pcs to make a villain capable of threatening them
>>98258820bullshitit takes like 6 points to become a god that blows up galaxies and rewrites reality
>>98258820plently of ways you just have to time wank a littledominator minion build and say you drained beasts for a Millenia or somethingdemon god build and say you waited for a Millenia to become a true godlich build and say you absorbed undead for a Millenia to become a undead godcharisma build and poach half the party
>>98258871I mean i do find liches cool.
>>98258321You mean like the powers that lead up to the elemental apotheosis power, but with KIB via TA Hiera? I guess you'd turn into an elemental of pure, healing life force and could heal that much better.
>>98257848for protags, beef jerky and varik suprisingly. Maybe lanna too. antag, greed obviously
Man the thread sure gets quiet when we're not trying to shitpost something to death. Really makes you think.
>>98259245When anons all leave when they see the shitposting stuff to death, it's not really surprising when the thread gets quiet after.
This too shall pass.
>>98259245The shitposters are either asleep or are wagies that have to go back to their cagies.
>>98259107Varik 100% betrays everyone by the end
>>98259429nah varik the betrayer is a red herring, or he does actually have some alter ego with the summon that is inside him with BIND:SELF or whatever.
>>98259446I think all of that is the red herring.
>>98259446Yeah, the actual traitor is clearly Jacker.
I'm gonna write, so do you guys mind if I come up with a name for the hub city? Or do we wanna throw names around?
>>98258146RIP squid

>>98257409Anyone working on a relationship chart?
>>98259599I started one for Abby since I already gave a few comments that'd fit in one
>>98259599I'm waiting for other charts first to get a feel for people. I already misinterpreted Varik once by going off his build instead of in lore stuff, so I'll wait
>>98259603>the fetish build is giving us a relationship chart before everyone elseWhat does this mean for the health of the general?
>>98259616Which build is yours?
>>98259625Bram
>>98259599Eurayleanon here, will be done by tonight but it's full of assumptions.
>>98259484No problems anon, do as thou will.
>>98259618I don't have any interest in vore, so any anons who where anticipating detailed writing about her eating are going to be disappointed.
>>98257409Ship em
>>98259988My toes with your toes
>>98260028Footholding...
>>98257409please dont write any relationship charts until my build is done. thanks guys, love you.
>>98260168ETA?
>>98260171October.
>>98260187So just in time for the 3rd or fourth JRPG run.
>>98260171Maybe a day or two. Ideally I post by tonight.
>>98260222Same.
>>98260222>>98260343Good goys or bad bois?
>>98260470I was still under the impression we are all part of the same party so I was making a good guy.I could probably go full edgy and make a bad guy, I'm apparently good at that, but then I wouldn't know how to write for it because I don't really like writing bad guys.
Would a multiplayer Game of Thrones cyoa work? Granted the power level of the setting is very low and this wouldn’t be very fun for players unless they’re into political intrigue and dysentery and other mudcore shit (even if it’s just to spite it). I’m really thinking of making some house maker system. Pick your heraldry, animal motif, house words/motto, etc.
>>98260625We don't have a good cyoa for it, but I'd be interested in playing it.
>>98260625>house coastin>we seal your fatekek

>>98260630>>98260639>>98260656>>98260661Hm. Maybe I shouldn’t. If you’re not going to take it seriously.
>>98260678How can you take GoT seriously? It has niggers riding dragons
>>98260678But I was serious, and seeing the image you chose, can you blame the other guys?
Anons would self insert as lords who keep having sex with tavern wenches, producing many bastards.
>>98260703Anyone born in that period would do that.
>>98260703I don't self insert and my wife comes from like gentry class or whatever irl, so I cannot relate to this at all.
>>98260625>mudcorefuck no and fuck you
>>98260746>my wife comes from like gentry class or whatever irlFuck you, Anon.
>>98260678>>98260625If you're worried about people not taking it seriously, why did you post a compilation of obvious meme/joke houses along with your adventure suggestion?
>>98260470He's a good guy but hes a bad boi
>>98260765Good gal-good girl, good gal-bad girl, bad gal-good girl, bad gal-bad girl tier list when?
I'm going to go insane.
>>98259618>>98259967She's clearly hard vore coded anyway so there's no point in getting my hopes up
>>98260893Its just going to be her describing what all the other PCs taste like and their texture profiles isnt it?
>>98259599I still can't do one for Greed yet but I'm gonna try and get a "alignment unbiased" prompt answer for Greed later, which should have her thoughts on some of the builds with obvious dynamics like Bram or Abby, as well as Varik and Lanna for having ESS(DFC)
>>98257409What's your build's main weapon? I assume even the builds with weapon master have their preferred one. At least a preferred type.
>>98260997I have a question about Greed. Even assuming that she's part of the villain party, would she actually work with that party at all? She seems like she wouldn't take well to someone being higher than her on the totem pole, and she technically has her cult to cover for the things she wouldn't or couldn't do. Why would she cooperate in any group that she doesn't have full control over?
>>98261118I think all of the "Villain Party" wouldn't work together at alll initially, and thus writing a scenario where they would is the fun part.
>>98259599I'm gonna start one for Oswin soon - I like IC relationship charts so I'll try to go for one like that. Maybe a requisition/supply list for each build? Or Oswin being commissioned to make a piece of equipment for each person in the company? I'll workshop it.>>98257890Based genocide. Looking forward to interacting with him, I can see Markus and Oswin collaborating on particularly large projects - maybe Markus helps Oswin with his magnum opus, or Oswin turns Markus' prosthetics into artifacts.>>98261084In terms of what he actually uses himself? Various wands he makes with CRAFT, potions/explosives and poisons he makes with ALCHEMY and BREW, that kind of stuff. He's probably the worst in the MP at fighting on his own. His big thing is using golems to fight for him. I plan on making a real list eventually, but he has a wide assortment to cover all kinds of uses and terrain - small goblin-like automata that can adjust their joints to fit through narrows spaces, lumbering behemoths that can use trees as clubs when he's in the wilds, etc. His go-to is a swarm of almost microscopic golems, since he can carry them without alerting others and they are viable in nearly any situation.
>>98261130Yeah, probably. Would this party even be the big bad that the hero party is trying to defeat, or are they the underdogs by comparison due to their infighting and disorganization?I wanted to try my hand at making a villain party member, hence why I'm asking.
So I was looking at being a lich, and im pretty sure it takes your entire point budget to become one. Holy fuck there's sub requirements to your sub requirements to your sub requirements.
>>98261160Well I doubt they'll be doing much collaborating as I intended to make Markus a part of the "Villain Party". He's much more prone to evil than any of the "Hero" party.
>>98260625>House Addams>Gladly we feast upon those who would subdue us Actual words: Thusly we do growl that presently our big toes have been thrown up above our heads
>>98261084>EurayleBow/Arrow, Spear/Shield and Twin Sabres. She's drilled in pretty much every weapon and her size lets her carry a few extra supplies on her. She switches between them when Trancing on Celerity, Defence and Attack in that order.
>>98261118>and she technically has her cult to cover for the things she wouldn't or couldn't do.I don't think she would have a cult that could actually accomplish anything. I mean if some freak entered your town and demanded worship after threatening everyone and then left faster than you could follow, would you continue following them? It's also probably mostly low tier adventurers and bandit freaks that would be loyal, and she doesn't really have any needs for them. She'd be more likely to throw money at a problem obtained by short notice plundering and bartering rather than actually have a retinue of loyal followers.>She seems like she wouldn't take well to someone being higher than her on the totem pole,>Why would she cooperate in any group that she doesn't have full control over?Probably just playing nice with full intentions of betrayal later on, and barely hiding said intentions. Enemy of an enemy is a friend, and she could need other strong people to help with things like a monster she isn't strong enough to kill yet, or to get access to resources she definitely needs, like finding something she can't translate or needing a superb doctor because she just got ubervenomed and it isn't going away with normal treatment.I don't really know how we wanna play the Dark Lord but in any scenario I think a "transactional" relationship works well for her and the rest of the evil team, especially since its not like genocide is her main goal.
>>98261175>big toes up above head>feet in the air>as one does when getting railedDamn, I knew they were all about offbeat romance, didn't know they were such an openly coomer house.Based actually.
>>98261174Huh, not sure how I missed that. Probably should of known based on the implication in the last paragraph or two of the bio (and, y'know, the genocide thing). Still looking forward to them having a battle of golems though! Does he got anything going on with his prosthetics (hidden weapons, special enchantments, etc) or are they just replacements that are more durable/heat resistant?
>>98261196>should of
>>98261165Since there's a lot more hero builds than villains, I think we need a Xehanort figure to patch up the power discrepancy holesInstead of a Dark Lord it could be that the typical "I will end the world" asshole has recruited the villain builds as not "underlings" but more as "tenuous allies" so it's the Dark Organization, and he's just the strongest member and a de facto leaderMaybe he takes things democratically and holds votes over their goals
>>98261196Oh, so you can't stack techniques normally?
>>98261237Accidental (You), sorry.
>>98261237Yeah but I think it means stuff like Ultimatum and Glint which makes sense
>>98261237I don't think it's about stacking passives so much as actives and spells, which you can't use at the same time.Something like Trance and Elemental Weapon is fine, in theory.

>>98257409ELE (Dark) requires any 3 ELE (x). So does Dark itself count as one of the ELE (x)es? It's formatted the same way.
>>98261334no, you need 3 eles previously before you can unlock dark
>>98261333>Evil McEvilface accidentally committed genocide/is insane and goes on murderous rampages randomly at a moment's notice>everyone wants him dead>he just wants friendship and formed the Evil McEvilface Club to finally get interaction>his ultimate goal is obliteration of everyone who is mean to himlvdo
>>98261334>So does Dark itself count as one of the ELE (x)es?Not for itself, you need different ones. But once you have it, it counts as one for other powers that need it, like that one that needs 6 elements.

>>98261580A cheerful young man from Sidith, born to a family of minor Nobles entwined with the One Church. Displaying remarkable talent with song from his early childhood, his path through life was shaped by it, maintaining a key position in the Church choir until he left for college, where he continued to amaze in the bardic arts and performed well even out of them. His decision to join [Party] was mostly a desire to see more of the world and maybe talk some sense into this [Overlord] about why they shouldn't go against the Auspices.While his initial impression is one of sweet-tempered naivete, time spent with him gradually reveals a very sharp mind sheathed in that cinnamon roll exterior, whether it be through moments of insightful observation or just noticing his improvisational skill with lyrics. Highly knowledgeable about the doctrine of the Church, very non-threatening in appearance, and truly prodigious with music, he's exactly the sort many women fawn over… yet too much interest in that regard seems to overwhelm him, about the only time he's at a loss for words. He's expressed enough interest safely away from fangirls to keep certain… rumors… at a minimum, at least.https://rentry.org/JRPGmcyoag26Bard(2/2)

>>98261183It's just what the cod-latin motto actually translates into (as close as it can be made to fit).
>>98261635>>98261631Oh lol. I was going fucking schitzo trying to figure out where the fuck they were in the tech tree
>>98261637Nta but now I'm kinda worried because it implies you found The Thread of Mung when it's supposed to not be there.
>>98261645I wasn't looking for that one, I'm trying to figure out the Lich tech tree.
>>98261649Which is kinda ironic. To make the pinnacle of undeath you don't actually need death at all.
>>98257409How strong are we allowed to make the custom perk? The ones already made are all over the place.
>>98261084That's hard to answer, since Varik really does use everything under the sun. I can break it down by what's most common at different ranges, though. At long range you'll mostly see bows and Javelins. At mid range more throwing daggers and throwing axes. And at close range he tends to dual wield short swords/arming swords/bastard swords that he'll throw when necessary. He teleports around the battlefield frequently to cover his allies at various ranges, so he's often switching between weapons on the fly. After a battle he'll collect all of his weapons from the bodies of his victims, as well as whatever those enemies had on them.>>98259599If I make no promise, I can't let anyone down! I'd like to start on one maybe this weekend though.
>>98261713as long as its justifiably flavor and not too op
>>98261654And to be the king of death you need to also master life magic. Which is odd. You'd think it'd make you combust or something.
The truth is, Mung is just Kib's cockslut
>>98261084Jacker is all about his trusty arming sword, his shield and a bow and arrow, but throughout his solo adventures he's been known to use two-handed swords, hammers, whips, pretty much anything he can get his hands on he tries to be competent in. Only issue is he only *keeps* a small amount of those things, so until he can afford to widen his inventory, he keeps it to the sword, shield and bow. When he was younger he used a slingshot, too, and Jacker's always wanted to try a boomerang. Jacker is a remarkably good shot for how nonchalant he is about it, and archery is actually fairly relaxing to him. Lining up a shot is far less stressful than dueling skeletons, after all.
>>98258436putting a big spotlight on this cause it got buried
>>98261084Bram uses his fist and his legs, he has not been known to use any actual weapon consistently. Who could have thought?
>>98261084Cyrus does not use any weapons, he might summon a miniaturized sun as a casting aid.
>>98261084Markus himseld doesn't use any weapons, as his body is around as strong as a less-than-average adult Human without any buffs or enhancements.His Golems (WAR-ENDER's if you've read the bio) however typically use a combination of overwhelming firepower of Magi-bullets, or various melee weapons. Each Golem is different and tailor-made to fight a specific kind of enemy, so it'll usually be whatever is deemed most effective/efficient.
>>98261873varik tp victim
>>98261084>>98258436Noire doesn't exactly use summons or weapons, but I can give more details about her and her envoys to help clarify what fighting is like from her perspective. "Noire" is a dreamer from outside the dream of mana, wishing she could go home, even if she doesn't remember said home. When Noire creates an envoy, it's another dream, like a what-if question. "What if I was a bird that fly freely," "What if I was a dragon with tough scales to protect my friends," that sort of thing. They're all extensions of the same girl stuck on the outside, like finger puppets all sharing the same hand. In a sense, she's a nascent mini-Mana, separating Noire from Noire, allowing bonds and differences among herself.Of course, her beasts still act like proper beasts. That's also part of the dream. For an envoy of hers to act smarter like Noire does, she'd need to grow more, both advancing her mastery of her element and usage of envoys, but also advancing her understanding of other people, enough so that she could dream she were them in earnest.
>>98261084Cyreina doesn't use any weapons. She just casts spells with her hands.

>>98262031>All++ vs Perfect Man and Holy Child before Dominator roidshow does Bram feel about getting mogged by a foid
>>98262039>All++ (Divine Strength) and Chaunt (Strength) vs Perfect Man (Mortal Limit, disguised anti-green) and Holy Child (nothingburger description) and Dominator (Fake gains)
>>98262053>Holy Child (nothingburger description)It's a bit sad that there are so many of those in the cyoa.
>>98262053
>>98257409Build finished, faceclaim found, but now it's late so I will post tomorrow after all the fluff is done.
>>98262070fake and gay, perfect man clearly trades the chad strength of blessed body for gay inviolable mind/body and beautysuplexes even without chaunt, while jerking off simultaneously
>>98262053>Mortal Limitdon't remember Bram not being a mortal, digga
>>98262070Nta but both Holy Child and Perfect Man are classified as Apotheosis. FF: KADMON and FF: RISHON respectively. Holy Child is the worst one in the whole cyoa, since it has no requirements other than being human or elf and has no meaningful description so you don't know what the fuck it does, but it's still one.
>>98262085>only divine beings can match you in this world (blessed body)>But to a once Demon that was TRAPPED in mortality it is a priceless treasure (chaunt)
>>98262085Nta, All++ clearly states that it's above mortal limits. Bram also has Chaunt, which means he's halfway to being a god again.
>>98262092>so you don't know what the fuck it does>feared and beloved by all that dwelled upon all the worlds and planesPrinceps? Pylons? Proto-Demon jobbers? QUAKE IN FEAR when a Holy Child comes running.
>>98262098then Greed is a Bram suplex victim?
>>98262098>>98262096As someone else pointed out some threads ago, Bram isn't divine yet, but he's close and for some reason the gods really like him.
>>98262102>beloved because they are so weak and easy to kill>feared because they are so annoying and gay
>>98262096>>98262098Demons are still mortal except for the small amount of time when they use their Apotheosis though
>>98262104It's close but yes.
>>98262107But Bram specifically is beyond mortal limits, just read dude.
>>98262104I'd still say no, All++ isn't an Apotheosis so it's probably not as strong
>>98262107>Mortal nature slowly eroding away (FF:ATAVISM)implies that you can be some mortal some divine
>>98262110Technically it only says divine beings may match you, nothing about still not being mortal or having explicitly divine strength>>98262118But until you have that Apotheosis it doesn't happen
>>98262117every non-apotheosis party member loses to some human bum with only Holy Child cuz duh its an apotheosis duh
>>98262120>strength power, says only divine beings can match you, doesn't have divine strengthvery well, it is TRUE
>>98262123This is true but only because the Bummest One solos the entire MP.
>>98262123>All++>vs another 2 point skill Apotheosis with more requirements that also includes All+ and another 2 point skill that's an Apotheosis>Apotheoses are said to be the strongest skill
>>98262131>HOLY Childohnononono Bramchuds?
>>98262135>One power focuses on strength only>One power makes you really hot, makes your mind immune to everything, makes your body immune to being transformed>Clearly the one that costs 1 more advanced point makes you stronger! Ignore that Chaunt is 2 points too
As an outsider All++ is probably a bigger boost than Perfect Man or Holy Child individually but with them together even with Chaunt which is more nebulous than Holy Child I think Greed outstats
>>98262149Nah Chaunt could definitely match Holy Child
>>98262146I don't think the inviolable mind thing is immunity to mind manipulation, seems like that's a stretch
>>98262162Is that not what inviolable means?
>>98262160>custom ability that unlocks other abilities and could be anything>vs prebuilt omniboost apotheosis
>>98262149As another outsider, the debate isn't meaningful to begin with. If they ever fight, they'll be treated like equals because that's what's fun, and the winner will be based on what furthers the writer's narrative goals. This kind of powerscaling never has any bearing on the characters.
>>98262165>never to be broken, infringed, or dishonoured.Perfect Man is already an omniboost and curse neg, I don't think the mind part is literal because then their body would be impossible to break either lol
>>98262166>custom divine domain focused on strength>general statboost that costs the same with no fake requirements
>>98262160apotheoses are stronger boosts than non apotheoses according to the cyoa
>>98262169It's just fun to figure out what should actually be stronger though
>>98261084Guadiela needs a body of water to actually do anything. So opening a gate to the elemental plane of water is her go to move. In terms of actual weaponry she can exude the strange element of sleep to sedate opponents trapped in the same waters as her. Large doses of STA;(SLEEP) suppress the biological impulses warm-blooded creatures have in reaction to being submerged water.
>>98261084Weapon? ...maybe an instrument? Keetran really isn't much for physical combat, if it's not those or his voice he's not wielding it unless things have gone REALLY wrong. His Elemental Songs are more than enough to scare away monsters and bandits... that's enough, right?

>>98257409Constance Impression Chart:https://rentry.co/JRPGConstanceImpressionsSaw people were hesitant on getting stuff out there, so decided to go ahead and do one myself. Personally I think people are too worried about mischaracterizing for stuff like this, having people get the wrong understanding based on first impressions is part of the fun imo. Also because I had to get something out since I haven't done anything for prompts yet, which I'll have to get to.
>>98263092>>98264504It was alright. I see what anon was going for, but I think it was too early for it. I think if we'd had a couple writefags with Jacker doing stuff and showing his adventures with the cast, it'd make him more endearing, and this would pay off more. Because we jumped right into this and were told about him instead of showed, it didn't really connect and I was left not feeling much of anything. The lack of build up turned it a bit into an info dump, essentially.

>>98265033Endymion Bruce is a simple creature with simple desires. Really, the simplest. All he wants out of life is to eat well, horde his money, collect hundreds of wives and produce hundreds of children, and make a weapon strong enough to contend even with gods. Really, simple. It's almost funny how badly the [Overlord] managed to fuck their relationship up. See, Endymion Bruce was promised, in no uncertain terms, that all of his wildest dreams would be imagined under their guiding hand. Honeyed words, because for all the demihuman villages purged and would-be heroes quietly assassinated, the [Overlord] made one very important mistake. He hurt Bruce's bottom line. There was also some ranting about returning to Nothing and taking control and whatnot, but Endymion Bruce just thought it was crazy talk. You get that when people get strong. Regardless, he's left the [Overlord] behind, which resulted in the total destruction of his main manufacturing facilities. His competitors took advantage, obviously, and now he's in a bit of a pickle; or he would be, if a group of plucky little heroes hadn't helped him out before the [Overlord]'s goons ripped him to shreds. Now he's traveling with them; partially for revenge, partially because some of them are actually good company, partially because he can learn from them to make better weapons, and oh, who's he kidding, it's because he wants to capture the [Overlord]'s soul in a bottle and torture it for all eternity. And if he makes a couple of friends and a lot of money along the way, well, how could he complain?
>>98265033Is this our third golem guy
>>98265052>collect hundreds of wives and produce hundreds of childrenNot even ten kids per wife to achieve thousands of children? How dissappointing.
>>98264887Good chart. Fun to read and should be a useful reference.
>>98265056Golem Gang too strong.
>>98265774At this rate the world is gonna turn into Nier automata...
>>98265957Maybe the sci fi fags will shut up then
>>98266062The dream of sci-fi will never dieWe'll get a good sci-fi cyoa one day
>>98266388No you won't. Not in these threads anyway
>>98266388Some day I'll make a good, highly customizable mecha cyoa. The sort that has individual choices for different parts, different part manufacturers with their own strengths and weaknesses, etc. in a fantasy setting.
>>98266454I've thought about making a Battletech cyoa for a long time now.
>>98265238Even he can't afford that much child support.
>>98266937I can't support someone who doesn't dream big.
>>98261084Endymion Bruce likes guns possibly too much. Certainly more than is healthy. He also carries a belt knife, belt gun, boot gun, two boot knives, some bombs in his pockets, and a surprise or two in his prison pocket. Frankly, for a squishy crafter he's way too fond of the rush from getting into combat, so even though he should be leaving all the fighting to hordes of Void-carrying Automata, he'll be leading from the front with whatever new surprise weapon he's cooked up.
Which builds are AIEEEEEE, which builds are ACK, which builds are WAAAAHHH, and which builds are OOF?
>>98267265OOF is the builds which haven't been made yet, obviously.
>>98267277I gave up. The build just doesn't translate into fluff. My ability to work with jrpg traitor is too limited.
>>98265033Wouldn't A-CAST require knowing the spells you want to ascribe to the bullet?
>>98267325It took a while but I'm finally on track. My build will be finished soon (tm).
>>98267325>>98267356>it's over>we're so backass mfer>>98267355I believe so
>>98267355I assumed that the elemental control options give you basic spells for whatever the element is. If not... i would probably drop Void and A-Cast
>>98267364I'm the second guy, not the first guy. Maybe my success will give him the will to try again but that wasn't my direct intention.>>98267355Like all -Cast powers I think that's how it works. Maybe you can say AdvEle allows you to give general effects but all cast modifiers need spells.At least that's how the cyoa makes it sound, we could rule differently since the setting isn't exactly the same.
>>98267325I'll be real with you, I also gave up. The tech tree is not as bad as vampires, but it's a real pain in the ass.
>>98267398Nta, they don't. Having an element just means you are attuned to it, what that does is described in the element, usually minor control and some secondary effect. AdvEle would give the generalized control you are thinking of, where you can kinda shape the element to mimic spells in a probably very inefficient way. But your guy doesn't have that either.
>>98267402How? it's very simple.
>>98267428I dislike the doubled names, alongside being packed tightly together in the image. You have to do a lot of hunting to find the next node.
>>98267428For me it's not the build making itself but actually creating fluff and personality behind it. The power levels are just too all over the place in the descriptions and I have zero idea what the world is supposed to look like.
>>98267398I mean it's not like bullets by themselves are weak in a world of swords and magic.
>>98267422Damn... I suppose I'll be reposting the build next thread. Gotta rejigger it first. I appreciate it being called out.>>98267591Certainly, and with the Craft skills they should get fairly strong.
I don't see what the story is supposed to be. It feels like another empty box.
>>98267591Considering what the other things can do they are pretty weak, they are a worse version than the basic bullet spell. But they wouldn't be normal bullets most of the time so they can get stronger.>>98267679I don't think they fit what you were going for anyway. You don't need A-Cast to make magic bullets, you have Craft for that, and with Industria you can mass produce them. A-Cast is more for handcrafted super special bullets than mass produced munitions. If you want even stronger bullets I would suggest getting Enchant or Imbue instead.Technically you don't need A-Cast anyway because Artifact allows you to put powers on stuff, Artifact bullets can have Void on them so you don't need to drop it.
>>98267759Shut up vampire
>>98267780>muh vampireYou're trying to kill the mp.
>>98267761nta, but imagine what it'd be like to have a machine gun firing void quakes at you...
>>98267761>spoilerI was thinking about this but it's unclear what giving my crafted bullets elemental void powers actually does... i guess a lot of things are unclear in this CYOA though.
>>98267761In my opinion, I think you're underestimating bullets. Of course, as a base they are weak relative to the offensive capabilities of outright supernatural powers but by how much? I mean just looking at the build list alone, how many PCs can even react to a supersonic projectile? Even if they could, how many could defend against a barrage of them? How many could endure them? Rifle rounds can often penetrate steel, not to even speak of non-standard ammunition like armor-piercing, incendiary, explosive and whatever else someone creative enough could come up with.Not to muddy the setting since I still think that ultimately they are on a weaker scale unaugmented but ignoring them altogether is a bit much. >>98267886Dude, just make up what it does. Or just go with what's intuitive and make it a durability negging bullet.
>>98267842Insert TF2 Heavy meme. I think that's this world's version of a war crime. The collateral damage would be absurd.>>98267886A lot of things are vague yes, and crafter powers are vague in general. The Void power by itself isn't actually that strong, but making it into a bullet is probably similar to a bullet spell. The strange thing is that Craft, Imbue, and Enchant don't really mention that you need to know, for example, fire element to be able to make flaming stuff but Atrifact limits you to stuff you have instead. The logical conclusion to this would be that you are not limited in what you can give items as long as they are weaker than what you can buy with powers.
>>98267814Seems like it's going strong to me, spaz.
>>98267905>but ignoring them altogether is a bit much.I'm not ignoring them, I'm just saying that basic bullets aren't that strong. A single bullet is worse than a bullet spell because the spell explodes and the basic bullet doesn't. All the other things you mentioned are external factors, the type of bullets, the type of weapon, tactics, all those things can have an effect on how dangerous bullets are. To the average paesant "guy with gun" is probably some terrifying monster, but to the average adventurer equivalent they wouldn't be that scary.Bullets are dangerous, and as I said they wouldn't be normal bullets most of the time. An explosive bullet is already equivalent to the spell,if not better since it's faster.It's just that they are relatively bad.
>>98267952Nta but I think he's accusing you of wanting to kill vampire not jrpg.
>>98267759We don't really have anything yet which isn't a good signThe basic plot beats are, obviously, the party wants to stop Evil McBadguy, but we don't even have Evil McBadguy's goals down. What can we foil if there's nothing to foil? No McGuffins to obsess over?
>>98268112nta, but, you know... McGuffins could be a good way to start, gives us a buffer to work on while we think about Evil McBadguy's stuff.
I think jrpg traitor sucks
>>98267780>>98268239
>>98268239I just don't see what it offers that spirit conscript didn't.
>>98268250The opportunity to embrace litrpg stat screens?
>>98268264Which nobody is using? I don't think a single character mentioned stats or levels or anything of the sort.
Jrpg lore is dumb. Dumb dumb dumb.
Pitiful elves. You were born to be sacrifices. Slaves.
>>98268308Well then yeah, it's got nothing spirit conscript didn't.
Pitiful vampires. You were born to be sacrifices. Slaves.
>>98268311Anon, the only dumb part is Mana-Yood-Sushai blowing up and acting like he don't know nobody, but thankfully, we are Anonymous /mcyoag/! We can RAPE and GAPE him if we put our minds to it!>>98268324STACYreed...
>>98268329Sushai isn’t an asshole or anything. He’s so vast his mere unconscious mind births whole worlds, which he never notices. It’s why Lovecraft interpreted the god as a blind idiot, reflected in his own blind idiot god, Azathoth, which is more or less just a direct copy or ripoff, or nod, to the tale.
>>98268354Yeah he's a big dumb retard baby, unfortunately he's a threat to existence and must therefore be destroyed to secure a future for our children.
>>98268360Anon no he’s so hyper-intelligent he just cannot notice something as small as our universe. He’s thinking about things that our universe wouldn’t be able to process. Are humans blind idiots for not paying any attention to the cellular wars being waged within our own bodies? I don’t think a human cares how many sperm cells die when he ejaculates.
At this point about the only thing we can agree on is that the big bad evil guy is a vampire.
Imagine having sushi in your name
>>98268370no, he's literally napping and the current world is his dream, it ends when he waked uphe quite literally doesn't know shitanyway we still gotta kill him, no other options
>>98268327I don't like jrpg but it's obvious the differences between SC and itself. There's the aesthetic differences of martial focused eastern historical world vs eastern interpretation of western medieval fantasy world. There's the power difference of destroying a building being a deific feat and creating planes/leveling landscapes being deific feats (lowball desu). And most importantly there's the distinction of more options due to a less constraining point system where jrpg allows more room for utility picks and build variation even within the same niches (such as mages having different ways to augment spells and whatnot). Jrpg has abysmal worldbuilding and as others have said, nothingburger options, whereas SC arguably had much better worldbuilding and individually useful options. So yeah, I personally am on the same page of not liking jrpg but it would be disingenuous to act like they fill the same space.
>>98268372There's something deeply ironic and fitting about that....
Are elves really better than humans at magic in JRPG Traitor lore? They seem to be the standard magic race but human (?) wizards made elves as fuel for magic, and it seems humans are known more for green (spiritual, summoning, etc) magic than blue (intellectual, academic, etc) magic, which elves aren’t really known for, in comparison. Some human mages are extending their lives using magic, so an elves lifespan (and they’ve only been around for a thousand years) isn’t really an edge in the top tier cases.
>>98268395That’s only because he’s napping anon. It’s a mere blip to him. He’s napped countless times before, already. Imagine what he could make when conscious. He only made the gods and the drummer for the purposes of taking a nap.
>>98268372I thought about doing that actually. You guys killed something i was having fun with, so maybe I could just do my thing inside your thing. But, it left a real bad taste in my mouth so I decided not to. Have at it though if it suits you.
>>98268419The whole red/blue/green system is dumb and they should have made it into a combination system instead.
Jrpg traitor was literally just an excuse for the author to write a fuck ton of esoteric sounding abilities
>>98268443For the fourth or fifth time now, shut up you bitter vampire fuck.
>>98268428If you did it anon I'd make a goon build to serve you.
>>98268423he's gonna get raped if he don't keep close eye on that sweet Mana-Yood-Shushole
>>98268457I guess maybe, thats a nice gesture. I'm not a particularly prideful person but it feels a bit like saying thank you to someone who just spat in your face though.
>>98268428I'm honestly thinking about getting back into vampire now. Not necessarily for the vampires, but for the alternate history angle.Like imagine if Cyprus turned into a hot conflict and at the same time the president of Turkey starts occupying large parts of northern Iraq following desert storm. NATO is going to be pissed and the Kurds are going to light up like a kicked hornet's nest. At the same time you've got the USSR dissolving and a huge atomic arsenal suddenly being split up amongst a bunch of newly independent states.
>>98268428>>98268474praying for your downfall genuinely vampirecuck
>>98268483Damn dude. Really? Why are you guys so psycho lately?
>>98268486I would have been cordial but >You guys killed something i was having fun with, so maybe I could just do my thing inside your thing.>but it feels a bit like saying thank you to someone who just spat in your face though.sorry this just really made me wish you were raped thrice daily by the rapewolves
>>98268495Uh huh. Well, wish in one hand and shit in the other as they say.
>>98268428This but with SC.
This manufactured rivalry between vamps and jrpg is obviously some desperate attempt at false flagging, but it's so deranged and retarded that I can't even tell which side the idiot is on.
>>98268514as seen >>98268507 here it's actually a salty salty SChud
>>98268514It’s the Parasite.
>>98268514The hatred is real I assure you.
>>98268538The hatred is probably real. I just can't figure out why someone hangs out here when he hates all mps and the people playing them.
>>98268525Long time to keep up this much shitposting effort then
There are legitimately mentally ill people who come to these threads. They know they're weird. They know nobody likes them. They keep coming back. They keep getting angry. There's no sense reasoning with them because they are incapable of reason.
>>98268560And they're ALLLLL [MP I DON'T LIKE]fags
>>98268560Probably because they know this is 4chan at the end of the day, and nobody truly cares about the post quality of 4chan
>>98268134Any mcguffin ideas?Crystals?Holy Corpse parts?The Dragon Balls?
>>98268569>Holy Corpse PartsThis is the most kinoMaybe a previous unfathomably powerful Overlord got cut up and had his remains spread out, and they're so strong they attract powerful monsters or mutate the surroundings
>>98268578Could even be our evil guy? Like right now he's just a ghost, so he can't do much but learn new powers as seen with dark granny, but he's trying to get his exodia pieces back so he can power up and take his revenge on the world.
>>98268603Holy fuck Dracula Harmony of Dissonance
>>98268560And they will not stopUntil these threadsAre dead
>>98264887It's a nice insight into Constance's character. It'd be interesting to see it update as interactions progress. And of course it's always nice to see a build of mine make it in!>>98261580>>98261586Looking back, did I make a mistake with including Generate Mana? If Elemental Songs aren't "spells" that need it, then maybe I need to tweak the build a bit. I do have some ideas...>>98267761A-Cast specifically mentions a 3x multiplier, which could benefit from Spellmod+. While you don't NEED it exactly its boost is pretty noteworthy.>>98268569The supposed key to a Gate Artifact? That's different in actual function in some vital, awful way?But Artifact with A-Cast and Industria would allow you to make a gun that can create its own magical bullets, with a switch to turn Industria on or off. Totally not another build I was spitballing...
>>98268603This seems like a fun idea.
>>98268372A vampire conspiracy of fuckers that are theoretically overpowered, but are too busy politcking and backstabbing each other to get shit done
no posts in 5 hours, it may be time to move on from this hobby anons
>>98270303It'll, uh, be sad to see you go anon. Farewell. I'm sure you'll find greener pastures to fertilize.
>>98268578>>98268603I guess in that case it'd be a "get them before he does" situation? Then, we can either go the necromancer route and have it be an actual corpse, or something like a magical armour that he would possess.
>>98257409Not a member of either party, but feel free to use him as you please. Critiques and comments are always welcome.Caligo, The Lichhttps://rentry.org/lichcaligo
>>98270985Sish can count towards Dark. I'd recommend trimming one of the other Elements out so you can grab an actual spell to use them with.
>>98270985Man being a lich sucks. Basically your entire budget gets spent just on the prerequisites.
>>98263092>>98264887Both nice reads. Constance probably is a low priority for Abby's appetite compared to others, and she's smart enough to see her more or less as a chef with her dresses as something worth keeping her around for (even do she's not supposed to be chewing on those). She'd resent being muzzled, but a way to keep her extra mouths at bay could be something she considers herself, eventually. After all, she's bound to increasingly want to be discerning about what and who she consumes.>>98261084Abby fights like as animal, clawing abd gnashing at her opponents as she actively tries rip them apart and devour them. One if her teeth might make a decent weapon for someone else.
>>98271176>man it sucks being a Lich>you just have to spend your entire budget on unlimited scaling power, minions that can fight Hero teams, the most powerful element and the most efficient element, the ability to make magic items with all of your powers in them, and all for what? Complete immortality and immunity to everything?
>>98270985>>98271217Say someone was to make a PC who was a reanimated construct created by Caligo. Would that PC have access to Caligo’s elements due to ARTIFACT? To Caligo’s non-apotheosis abilities? If we agree that is so Caligo seems like huge potential for being a BBEG. His minions would (likely) be completely loyal to him and would have access to whatever collection of CRAFTs he would have made, while also having to capacity to spend their extra points to whatever they want since they save so much due to ARTIFACT.
>>98271321>Would that PC have access to Caligo’s elements due to ARTIFACT?The other way around, if you wanted to fluff yourself as being a construct of his, then you would need to purchase all of that stuff for yourself. It's a tax, not a bonus.
>>98271176This is why there was a huge point argument that killed the first attempt at jrpg iirc.
>>98257409The fact that there's no psychic shit in this really killed my motivation to play. Good systems should have arcane, nature, divine, and psychic magic.
>>98271217I meant more in the sense that there isnt much build diversity with lich builds. Were there to be two lich characters, they would necessarily be extremely similar and overlapping.
>>98271835Anon, liches are extremely similar and overlapping. Becoming a lich requires extreme arcane power and insight into necromancy, it makes sense that should take a lot of build points. Think of classic liches from rpgs and ttrpgs; they're extremely similar at a baseline!
>>98271852Arthas might have been a bitch, but he wasn't a caster main before becoming the Lich King.
>>98271176>>98271835I may as well suggest what I've been thinking about, which is builds having one Apotheosis except Kadmon cost 1 or 2 less. Yeah, it broaches free points, but you still need all the prereqs for it. And for the record I'm KeetAnon, so I don't get free points out of this anyway. On that note...>>98261160OswinAnon, if you're down, I was thinking he was at least aware of the Rowendale family prior to college, where they became at least acquaintances. Could also be proper friends, if not besties prior to the events of the MP.
>>98271775what even counts as psychic in your eyes? Because the truths seem like psychic powers to me
>>98271926The truths are purely powers that affect your own physiology and metaphysical existence. There's nothing psychic about them.
Something about this feels like bait.
>>98271982It reminds me of point whores in Be the Noble?
>>98272044No I was talking about the psychic power thing. It's out of nowhere and has nothing to do with the genre.
Am I missing ESS;(X) somehow or or does that just mean any ESS?
>>98272070Yeah that's what it does, ESS;(X) abilities can take the characteristics of any esswnce you have
>>98272070ESS X, STA X and ELE X all mean "any" of whatever they are. If you have TA HIERA they become interchangeable.
Isn't FF:ARHAT just strictly better than LAZARUS? It not only gives you immortality but it also doesn't mention specific weaknesses that bypass it and gives you some final form transformation. The requirements also don't get redundant with the immortality.
>>98272057Psychic shit is always present in fantasy shit. Is any conversation immediately off topic to you?
>>98272123It doesn't give regen, just agelessness
>>98272161>You have attained truth-nature placing you beyond the reach of life and time, immortal.Sounds like more than just agelessness to me.
imgine picking immortlity options in an mp where time never passes
>>98272172Imagine going for a theme.
>>98272170beyond the reach of life doesn't really mean anything
>>98272132>Psychic shit is always present in fantasy shit.No it's not. It's much more associated with sci fi, it's more rare to find it in pure fantasy.
>>98272170That's just flowery language for ageless. It mentions regen nowhere.
>telekinesisjust use wind or earth magic and the chain + thread spells>future sightthat's available>astral projectionthat's kinda availablereally can't be that hard to make a functionally psychic build
>>98272187There is Truth if Life, so it'd be immunity to it, no?
>>98272288How can you be immune to the Truth of LifeThat doesn't really do anything considering it doesn't have any offensive use that isn't blunt piercing or shear force
>>98272295New thread?
>>98272188Its in Conan, its in DnD, its in many of the clasic JRPGs.
>>98272385no we don't need one
Where can I put images to make them appear in rentry without spamming the thread? I saw people say that imagechest needs an account now, and that catbox deletes stuff after a couple days.
>>98272457dump them in a thread you made on trash or hereno one cares
>>98272457I'm not sure about that catbox thing, I just went back and looked at one of my old builds and the images were still there.
>>98272457bro just fucking use imgur like everyone elsewhy is this not the default option for everyone?
>>98272480Interesting, I just checked and mine are still up too. I remember someone saying that recently and the images were gone, but I guess it was the site itself being down for a bit.>>98272485It used to be the default option for cyoas, but the quality compression was pretty bad, not that it matters in this case.Then the NSFW purge happened, a bunch of cyoas galleries were deleted because of changes in the ToS, even ones that aren't NSFW. Since then the whole cyoa comunity shunned imgur for everything and imagechest too its place.Personally I was sure you needed an account for it, but I never tried it.
I appreciate your thoughts on the writefag, everyone. I wanna do more stuff, I'm just not sure where to go. I could bite the bullet and work on a Jacker relationship chart. But also, I'd like to explore the mcguffins actually
>>98272685A slow and steady pace of short, disconnected writefags might be nice. Right now I think we just need more going on.
>>98272685Mcguffins seem to be a good idea and holy corpse has the most interest but we need to narrow them downDo we want it lichy/undeady? I think personally I'd prefer it to not be lichy.
>>98272721I said this >>98270676 earlier, if we don't wanna go lich/necromancer it can be armour or even automaton parts and the demon lord possesses them like a ghost or something?>>98272719I don't see why not. I'll have more action next time though. I tend to write REALLY big writefags so something smaller is a good change of pace for me
>>98272480>>98272654Yeah, catbox still works, but some ips or countries are blocked so you'd need a VPN to have them load in depending on where you are.>>98272457Direct links from the booru also work if that's were you got the image from as long as it's not gelbooru since they changed how that works and the link is different per region or something.
>>98272739Nta. I think armor parts does sound cooler than corpse parts. Undead evil guys are a bit too common, some lost magic sounds more interesting.I think it would be interesting if the bag guy is actually really weak in a direct confrontation, but is good at working behind the scenes and misdirection. The armor/magic items/body parts would be to patch that weakness and become invincible. So with each piece we get the final fight would get easier. Something along those lines.
>>98272866I mean, I’m all for what you guys want. I’m just suggesting things. Armour parts/magic items would stand out as a creative idea though, and who knows, maybe WE could use them at some point?
>>98272883I'm getting flashbacks to the lore description of Fatalis armor in MH.We could have it so that the items can be used by anyone, but the more you use them the more they corrupt you, eventually making you into a copy of the original.Possible plot point, the current BBEG is actually just the latest random smuck that found one of the pieces and got completely taken over, and now wants to find the rest to go back to 100% power. If we make that piece a support piece like the steath cape or the charisma crown we can also keep the other proposed theme of the bad guy being initially weaker.It would some fun thing possible too, like other demon lords popping up if some pieces remain unaccounted for too long. Establishing rotations for who gets to use the items we have so we don't get fully corrupted.
>>98272924I actually REALLY like that. Maybe after he left Cyreina’s tutelage he fucked off to go find the armour pieces because that fit his idea of “ultimate power”?
Guess I'll go bake a thread.
>>98271321I wouldn’t mind if someone wanted to write themselves as one of the souls Caligo kept, but Caligo himself would he a bad BBEG. I wrote him more as a neutral power. Those in his service are free to leave at anytime.

I will never understand highpowerfags
ngl, until I see serious writefags from them I'm going to assume the guys whining about city and island level whatever are shitposters.
