This is it. The thread that will have the most OC in the Summer of 2026.
I'm afraid I don't recall the taste of OC.
Gil my beloved
I have cursed you all. Thats it. No OC at all until all of you apologize to me for being mean
>>98333260On behalf of all of /cyoag/, I apologize.
>>98333098Aromage updated without changing the version number. Compare the first pages of both, their race section.https://imgchest.com/p/md7opbe29yp
Reminder that the death and immortality cyoa contest is set to end July 14th, We are down to the last 4 days!If you are planning on participating please hold off on posting yours until the 11th (tomorrow). I (Voidsoul) have already completed mine and will hold this compact, as I think if everything releases at the same time it will be more exciting for the thread.Everyone else who finishes theirs may join the Compact and I will list them when I make this post every thread, if you reply to this saying yours is done.One Anonymous user has joined the compact.Kotposter has joined the compact. I hope it has cats!This is also a general call to see how many people are planning on submitting for the contest. If you don't want me to win, try at least a little bit, as mine is aggressively mid.Night Rider is mostly done, and will join the compact. Best of luck! An anonymous user #2 is also considering making one.Wodan has stated he started one, but then decided it was out of scope and dropped out. Good show old chap.Thank you for your attention, and time is of the essence. We have 1.333 Majora's masks left.
>>98333222I mean given that this is the day Death an Immortality contest starts submitting responses, It very well may be.

>>98333187I've always wanted to like this one, but I can never quite sink my teeth into it. I think I'm fundamentally not a fodder commander type of guy. In things like Demon Lord, Domain Master, or Planes Awakened there are other elements I can focus on while having the chaff around just to fill out my central purpose. If there were an option to just let me have 3-4 permanent summons I'd me more into that. I think that's what legendary is supposed to be for, but that section is a bit unclear as to why you'd bother mechanically
>>98333828
There is 7 minutes remaining until the 11th, by my clock.I will not wait a second longer to post my Death and Immortality CYOA(s).I am sorry to those on the west coast. (Though the euros could have pre-empted me if they thought to.

>>98333859Time Void, Symbol of Death, Empty MindMake my body a nano swarm that is as advanced as possible with myriad abilities too long to list, including superintelligence, shapeshifting, and becoming undetectable to humans and their technology. Spread everywhere without sunlight, constantly surveilling nearly all things on earth—what cannot be constantly surveilled is deduced. Use Empty Mind to know the exact time of death of everyone without being killed by me to kill them via the Symbol of Death 1 nanosecond before they would have died.
>>98333947
>>98333956
>>98333951Very well played. You really did run with the 'remodel your body however you wish'. I intended for it to be within human limits, but I never stated it. Like dust, you are.Good use of Empty Mind to ethically cull the populace. So, are you trying to achieve a meta-stability, where you never execute them all, or do you actually pull the trigger when you have the requisite number of kills?
>>98333962Pull the trigger.

>>98333973Voidsoul's Blind run.Black GhostPowers: True Immortal, Relay Link, Immovable Object, Natural Weaponry, Formed Flight, Superior Autonomy"I won't kill innocents, only those who deserve it."True Pacifism is unethical. If there are other immortals treating normies like cattle, stoping them is the ethical thing to do. Additionally, I am pro death penalty, there are some crimes that only God can forgive.Skills: Wordsmith, Combat Veteran.Discovered - between being unharmed by non-immortals and my ability to convince others to work with me, I was planning on working with the authorities from the beginning.Only Worthy Authors - Fuck the people outside of 4chan.Female Form - Horny.The plan: Relay Link, Natural Weaponry, and Superior Autonomy are the GOATs of fighting other IBMS. True Immortal, Formed Flight, and Immovable Object mean that defensively, normies can't harm me, if needed. I have a family, who will need protection, and I am but one man. Work with the government, they already know who I am. I just wish I had enough points to also get perfected mimicry. You know why.
>>98334004What's the plan with empty form? Just want to depressurize something? Conceptual invisibility is GOATed, may even be able to slip through the rules.
>>98333380I finished this in the eleventh hour, but it is finished, nonetheless, and I can proudly say that I took part in the July 11th Compact.OC! OC! OC!This one is an afterlife picker, where all of them are oriented around various cycles of loss and renewal. I'm not sure how I feel about the Death & Immortality theme, but I did a lot of thinking on it. I hope we see a lot more OC, and you guys all enjoy your weekend!

>>98334090>>98334092Voidsoul here. Really enjoyed the writing, in some ways I feel like it was made for me.. Each was tempting in its own way, the casino most of all. But there was ever only one choice for me. Come to me, my mistress, my muse. Unmake me and make me whole. Voi

It can run everything so much more efficiently anyways. The golden path to maximize survival and survival of humanity as a whole. Cooperative IBM elements shall be brought into the fold, while threats to the prosperous order eliminated. Who the body snatcher was once originally has long dissolved under the weight of all the assimilated memories and prolonged state of true immortality. While It can no longer feel emotion, it can perfectly mimic the emotional responses of its current identity from all of the stolen memories, sheer understanding of human psychology and behavior combined with predictive models.
>>98334624The creature is craven in nature. Relying on algorithmic predictions to maximize its survival and by extensions humanity as a whole, due to it being the host species of IBM and main source of RE. Also there are threats beyond its knowledge that might require humanities power to deal with, something caused the IBMs’ and it may cause more threats to its continuous survival. When It predicts it can win it will fight, when it can not it will flee, it can always take on a new host to blend in.
>>98334624>>98334627Sounds incredibly soulless, especially because being the IBM kills your emotions, you're just a machine following your Quantum computing predictions.

Just me locked with my own thoughts, forever or until I reinvent magic and break free))
>>98334657Oh, sure it's just the natural conclusion of this combination of drawbacks and true immortality. Like you have a bedridden, weak willed individual whose life is pretty fucked and they have a super intelligent IBM with monstrous predictive capability that doesn't even listen to them most of the time. So afraid of dying and to reign in the IBM creatures they just dissolve themselves into it. Oh, it works fine they pretty much got their normal life back.Until the emotional numbness comes in, sure it's fine they can just emulate those emotions anyways. It still beats being a cripple and letting out that IBM to roam free. It's actually a self reinforcing loop the more numb the emotions are the less you mind losing them. Eventually we'll they are completely emotionless. But since they are so damn intelligent and capable of mimicry no one else even notices the difference. You essentially get a high functioning psychopath. It doesn't even have an emotional attachment to its body and identity so it can change bodies and roles like suits. Tried to pretty much write a cautionary tale that some of the ways to avoid drawbacks aren't as free as they appear to be. Also interesting to speculate how monstrous a hyper optimized IBM would be.
>>98334718>I assume all of these people will also be immortal, so it shouldn't even be hard to gather more.Immortality is a base power, so you may give them that, yes.>Suggestion power: Infinite memory>If I'm going to live forever I would like to remember all of itInfinite memory? Oof, that's a toughie for someone like me. I'm sure you don't wamt a hollowed out skull to make room... Sure, I can get close to that... Since you've already gotten the time power, I'll just backhack off of that. Let me just design a terminal interface..... there - whenever you stop time, you'll have the option of going to any relevant point in your personal timeline and replay the events - either in first person view of yourself, or in third person. You can't affect anything in these time bubbles, but since they aren't sensory recordings, you can learn stuff you didn't see the first time. You'll have a range of... looks like 1000 m before the temporal reconstruction decoheres, though anything you were interacting with beyond that range should cut through the static - so first person mode will always apear accurate. Why? Because viewing is interacting of course. Let's add a smart search bar - meet Amalile, the Deamon running the calcs for you. If you want someone to speak to in the frozen time, She'll be able to.>I don't trust the boatperson enough to take their outI was just trying to save you from becoming a murderer.
>>98334718>Just me locked with my own thoughts, forever or until I reinvent magic and break free.Suprised you didn't use your de facto place at the top of the hierarchy to Spur development to escape the sun's gravity well with a stock of humans. You've basically guaranteed yourself Doom trying to be metastable. If you hit the big number will you try to execute the remaining and ascend? Or do you just accept that one day you'll need to strike as comfy of a pose that you can?
>>98333859Fuck it's not worth it, just get me isekaid you know how god damn bad it is not being able to be in sun's light and this isn't even direct god damn sunlight this is sun's light in general so moonlight will work, sun going trough the window, non fully opaque material, diffraction, the fuck are you going to stop all of those microscopic amounts of electromagnetic radiation from reaching you. Empty mind is mandatory to warn you when your in sun light or your just going to accidentally be killed by it. And that's if your even able to find a location with absolutely no sunlight in the first five minutes. You might need time void for that but that would be useless without void strength due to all of that immobilized air particles preventing you from moving. But well void strength is also a trap option as you might just fucking get stuck somewhere and be unable to kill anyone. This whole cyoa is a trap might as well take 3 x isekai tickets and go into the sun light.
>>98334783If general relativity holds then I could hypothetically use constant changes in my momentum to skip to the heat death of the universe, but I probably won'tIt's just not worth it to sacrifice humanity for myself. I'll take the free 10^10 years of life and get to work trying to destroy my prison realmIf the gods are cruel perhaps it's best to be forgotten>>98334769Uhh, replay doesn't actually include the good features of memory, like spontaneous recollection and short term memory increases (Which are in effect an increase in intelligence)More specifically, in a general computing sense an intelligence having higher memory allows it to make shortcuts, such as recalling that 3x4=12 without having to calculate 3+3+3+3, and so having an infinite memory means never having to repeat any thinking you do unless you wish to, it's not just a preservation of the past>I was just trying to save you from becoming a murderer.Save yourself?

>>98334090Static Estates for sure.
>>98334004>>98334298>walk into the sunAs dawn's light creeps over the horizon, it's as beautiful as you've ever seen it. Warm and bright, like the sight of an old friend. Noface, I'll send you to Liminal City, an odd plane that's about 10 miles wide, but 9 X 10^30 miles tall. It's a dark world, lit by artifificial means, powered by darkmotes that generate ambiently. An artificial world I built in my youth - the whole of it is filled with cityscapes of every era, patched together with rail lines going up or down along the length of it. The coolest trick to it is that down is decided by each person at each moment, and there are rooms to help people transition from upfacing to downfacing, and most cities have different architectural styles depending on which way ia 'up'. I'll make sure you're born into the top .001%, and a connection to the darkmotes. Not control over - they are pseudo sentient - but they will listen to you. Average life expectancy on this plane is 1000 years.Anonymous user, I'm sending you to Highgartha. It's a solar-system sized hollow-earth style plane, with multiple layers radiating out from the inner sun. The further from the center you go, the cooler it gets. The sections closest to the sun are melted, glasssy hellscapes - wheras the furthest out are frozen, dark abysses. There's a good few AU of habitable zone, though, and I'll set your atunement to the Crystalight magciks to the maximum degree (rarity: one in 1 billion billion), along with putting you in with a powerful family in the plane's largest capitol. The people there have pseudo-religious beliefs about Crystalight, so you could spin this however you want. Crystalight users can also extend their lifes near-indefinately and in peak form. You could become god-emperor of the plane if you wanted to... or just be a kooky wizard, or a hermit... whatever you want.>>98334293Cute!
>>98333859Empty MindEmpty WordsCustom Power (the power to create living humans from nothing).
>>98334791Hmmm if you don't like the replay.... I can't grow things, but... I could fracture your psyche fractally, creating effectively infinite storage, but with smaller and smaller 'buckets' for memory. A vast sea of shattered and scattered memories, each with a micro personality that is of you. If you could get these fragments to sing in chorus, that would also give effective infinite compute? This would also set you on a path to becoming unto a Primordial, you should probably designate a third circle of fragments to be the prime constutuents of yourself. Though I'm not sure I'm legally allowed to do that. Ehh, fuck it, if you eat the pantheon it's their own fault.
>>98334852>(the power to create living humans from nothing).>Bro needs a power to do the thing every man and woman can dolmao
>>98334785Ohkay, a bright world. Then I'll get you in on, well, not my world per-se, but I'm good friends with her. There's a genius-loci world, or rather a star, that I'm cool with. There's life there, amongst the plasma columns and spirals. Massive things, like psychic space whale-dragons, but they can take on a human like form whenever the star - Tabitha, btw - intersects with a reality with people. Some choose to stay behind to guide humanity in radiant perfection, but most stick with the star as it provides eternal life - so long as the star's alive. I can't look too close at the details, but her dragon-whale-people seem happy swimming amongst the eddy currents and magnetic winds, and Tabby's always been cool to me at the mixers.
>>98334854Ok, that sounds like it worksThank you voidsoul
>>98333856Immortality.>>98333859>Empty Mind>Akashic Symbol of Death>PrimogenitureBroadly: I want to kill 50% of the world population immediately, concentrated in the more advanced societies so they won't develop AI or other disruptive tech. After that I wait for human population to grow over time, and do regular cullings.I kill ~10 people barehanded right away, they are my goons who help deliver me more people to kill barehanded (for Primogeniture).I share with each goon the Akashic Symbol of Death + some of my immortality if that's allowed (I don't know if it counts as "power").Then I identify (with Empty Mind) the best people to kill barehanded for the purposes of conducting the 50% of world population killing (like people with a lot of military authority), and also the people with the most valuable skills. Language skills are among them.Once there's ~10000 goons with Akashic Symbol of Death, they travel across the world and start killing large-scale, both by their positions of authority (politicians, military men) and by Akashic Symbol of Death.We coordinate normally through various telecom.It should be smooth sailing from there.I don't understand how Time Void is supposed to work? "If you needed to breathe, this power would be quite tricky to use" - meaning that you cannot move anything around, so you cannot move your own body around either since it would diaplace air, or what?
>>98334852People from nothing. Life ex nihilo. That's the secret, isn't it? We all come from nothing. Ripped from the Void.... ripped from yourself. The differences between yours and not are slight, but noticible to the trained eye. You get to pick the overall tell, though. Yours also don't count for the total, in case you were trying to cheat the system that way. You'd only be killing yourself. <off-screen murmering>What's that? I have to bound it? Fine. <papers shuffle>Uhhhh.... Until you reach ultimate power, you can create a total up to your kill count.
>>98334893NTA, but at least to me it seems that your immobile in time void unless you have void strength. I am telling you a lot of these powers are trap options.And how are you logistically going to kill half of the population if all your primogenitors also die after 5 minutes in the sun. Humanity will soon find out all of these weird ass vampires are weak to the sun and just weaponize it.
>>98334902>You get to pick the overall tell, though. Yours also don't count for the total, in case you were trying to cheat the system that way.feck. Well I guess the plan is to cheese empty mind. Something like 'if you had to write a 1 page guide on how to complete this task what would the first character be?' repeated as many times as necessary.
>>98334878Glad you like it, just.. remember these three things:When the time comes you must eat the Scorpion.A devil-tiger demands a domain.The dance is the world and the world the dance.That should get you past the first three riddles of Ur. Punch the guardian-monkey in the face for me. Punching the monkey won't help you. In fact that would actually only hurt you. But it would be extremely funny>>98334893>some of my immortality if that's allowedYes!>I don't understand how Time Void is supposed to work? "If you needed to breathe, this power would be quite tricky to use" - meaning that you cannot move anything around, so you cannot move your own body around either since it would diaplace air, or what?It's mostly a JoJo's reference. Only you can move in the frozen time. You do not interact with air-matter, so when you restart time, you displace the region you enter into and the hole you left whips closed like a n inverse baloon popping.As you reduce the population, the number of spawn you have may become a problem as each needs to kill at least once per day. Not sure how low you're planning on taking it but considering how well thought out this is I'm sure you'll be able to balance the numbers. You have a good shot at ultimate power.
>>98333973>ImmortalsThis looks like it is going to be good>You can revive from deathI love this>No mention of eternal youthUnfortunately unplayable....
>>98334928You respawn at the age you started at, dimwit
>>98334911>I am telling you a lot of these powers are trap options. They're certainly is something Hollow about them, isn't there? But no, void time does not require void strength to work. You don't interact with air in the Frozen Time. I don't consider myself cruel, I lay out the drawbacks as best I can. I'm working with the limited means I have.>>98334912FUCK_YOU.You're most likely to get the start of a plan that then diverges into autistic train facts. Or thinking this through, as circumstances change instantaneously, including the knowledge you have from previous uses of the power, the book will change as you're reading it ( the live updates changing the words that would be written). Making it mostly incomprehensible.
>>98333859wait a minute, if there are a fuck ton of super powerful beings, is there anything preventing them from just killing you by blasting your with teleporting sunlight to prevent you from obtaining ultimate power. Like if I was a very powerful being I would not let any pretenders to come into existence.
>>98334928I would have mentioned that you age to a peak and then stop aging like in the actual Ajin Demihuman but I felt it was redundant because of >>98334930
>>98334912I mean with empty mind and empty words, you'll be able to hack social systems incredibly well. Those two alone are a good argument for beating the challenge if implemented correctly.Sad that you did not make the tell on your Void people that they have huge perky tits. You could have weaponized it into a positive.
>>98334938I assume that the beings that set you the task wouldn't like to see their servant blasted before they finished
>>98334938Firstly you've been appointed as the destructor of humanity, there would be legal red tape about interfering with that.Secondly I would be obscuring the world while you did this, per the enforcement mechanism of my contract. And the void is very good at obscuring.But if there was a sufficiently Headstrong one of these hero Celestial type who wanted to barge in something that has been sanctioned and slated by the higher ups, then you probably have real deal Angels showing up to protect you.
>>98334936>They're certainly is something Hollow about them, isn't there?But no, void time does not require void strength to work. You don't interact with air in the Frozen Time.I don't consider myself cruel, I lay out the drawbacks as best I can. I'm working with the limited means I have.Not interacting with air? How exactly does this work? what counts as air? What if the air has particulates? Like dust, would you be able to interact with those? Then there is a whole other issue of well not being able to carry stuff, so you would only be able to move butt naked as all of your clothes are frozen. Not to mention the whole issue of lack of gravity and lack of friction, because well if you move up in any ways you will just fly up into the fucking air and since there is no friction since you don't interact with the air you will just fly off into the air until you turn off your power.
>>98334936Well then I guess I'm just screwed.
>>98334967Listen my guy I don't know how it works, I stole it from a time God. It makes music when you beat it, and it screams when you hold it still. You're making very good arguments, there seems to be some minimum threshold for being able to pass through things, like you can't pass through walls, but you can walk around like it's normal. If I had a diviomagical device that when activated threw the user off out into space I would tell you that's what it does. I appreciate my description of it leaves much to want, if you would like to make a description for next time I loan it out to someone, I would love to hear it. I would just write it down and hand the notes to them.
>>98334980I mean you could always greet the Sun. But no you're not screwed, like I said before with your other two choices you have a non-negligible shot at beating the challenge. And now add on top an equal population to the amount you've killed of humans that are a single degree of separation from you no matter what, and even if you did nothing but slowly replace the populace with normies who didn't know what was going on, you still passivley rack up kills.
>>98333859>time void>empty mind>strength of the voidI was on the fence between strenght and invisibility but strength is going to mke the final culling way smootherthe plan is to lay low in a third world country to make it less likely for others to notice my uncontrollable strength and how I never seem to age, killing at least one person per day and hiding from the sun should be easy with my (not) time stopI will use empty mind to know how many kills I have so far and how many humans remain in the worldonce the amount is enough to get to 12.000.000.000 with my current kill counts (plus a bit more leeway because aparently saving someone even by accident could bring my kill count down) I am going to permanently put the world in the (not) time stop and slowly start killing everyonewith my strength I should be able to easily break through annoying obstacles and throw stuff at airplanes (since the projectile will probably be time stopped too I can just ask empty mind if the trajectory is good to make it crash down) and suchonce I culled down most of humanity I can ask empty mind the location of humans I might have missed to get rid of everyonethe only problem I see is that time stop aparently stops everything but time? which I don't really understand the difference? I'm guessing the sun, earth and moon are also frozen in place either way so I would only be able to cull one half of the planes before having to resume time and then cull the other half once it is nighttime there
>>98334987Can you at least explain how light works? if even photos are stopped doesn't this essentially just render you blind? Like you have this whole weakness of not being in sun light for 5 minutes, how does that work when even sunlight is stopped in time? Like if you hit a random sun photon will it just stick to you and kill you?
>>98334936I'm personally imagining that stopped time works for a few milimeters around you, and as of such the air can move but you leave a vacuum in your wake
>>98334995The idea of this omnipotent strength guy having to wait until nightime to shoot planes down with his anti-aircraft baseball toss is hilarious to me. But yeah this was close to the FOO strategy I came up with for solving the challenge. You just have to mention making sure no one ever gets off planet ( throw rocks at spacecraft I guess?)Your guess for how the time stop actually works is as good as mine. But you've gotten the gist of it and can figure out the edge cases with experimentation. Thrown objects freeze in the air, but the final cull can be done in a single moment of frozen time if you are that patient.
>>98335022Stuff I've learned from watching people use the power:You can still see in the Frozen time.Being out where the sun could hit you in Frozen time counts against you, getting back into the darkness resets your timer in the Frozen time. There is no stickiness to it.>>98335037See you would think that but someone tried putting their hand on someone alive during the Frozen time and their skin cells did not start working again, so it's not that easy to state it that way.
>>98335057>Stuff I've learned from watching people use the power:>You can still see in the Frozen time.>Being out where the sun could hit you in Frozen time counts against you, getting back into the darkness resets your timer in the Frozen time. There is no stickiness to it.hmm... okay this seems like some alternate timeline bullshit, where so arbitrarily time god designated amount of space is just a superimposed stretch of alternate reality where time is not frozen but just looped, which allows with limited interaction within those designated bounds and by extension sight and movment. While everything else besides the subject and those weird zones are fully temporally frozen.
>>98333859so what happens in the edge case of the humans being transported into another universe? Do they count as dead or not?
>>98335112That... is a really good description! I didn't even notice the looping effects, but now that you've pointed them out, it's so obvious now. I'd introduce you to the time god if it wouldn't reveal I'd stolen from him!>>98335135That's a loophole like digitizing them, the higher ones demand that humanity be dead dead.
>>98335049>throw rocks at spacecraft I guessI though about dealing with spaceships too as most materials would probably disintegrate upon leaving orbit at such speeds but then I thought that all I need to do is ask empty mind for updates every day as they either:A- stay in space until their resources run out and die (if I was patient enought to kill everyone 1 by 1 then a few months/years chilling on earth is no problem)B- try to come back to earth with no ground control to help them so they crash and dieC- try to come back to earth with no ground control to help them and manage to land safely, empty mind tells me and I finish the job.

>>98335159Yea, the major concern is, since this process will take decades (33 years minimum if maximally efficient) if humanity can make a self-sustaining colony off planet. You just need a single day where you don't kill someone to fail. Still, that's likely past the 33 year time horizon.
>>98333973damn forgot to link my build properly after the copy paste from my doc>>98334624
>>98335142>That's a loophole like digitizing them, the higher ones demand that humanity be dead dead.hmm... then what about all the humans you just isekaid and potentially all the humans who have been isekaid or kidnapped by gods or other entities in the past?
>>98335184I read it but I'm not the kind of author who'll save builds and compile them in a post, probably detremental to the longevity of my CYOAs but I don't care.
>>98335199its mostly for easier for anyone else to read it, if anyone wanted to go trough all the existing builds
>>98335190>hmm... then what about all the humans you just isekaid and potentially all the humans who have been isekaid or kidnapped by gods or other entities in the past?Supernatural events like that don't count against you, so you don't need to worry about that. It's my job to make sure that outside elements don't intercede. But you can't be the one shunting them out (or inviting foreign elements to get them out), or else you fail.

>>98333973I LIKE BLACK AND WHITE CYOAS :D
>>98335215fascinating. So are there multiple people who have these powers given to them at the same time or does each of them exist in an alternate universe?
>>98333859>>98334852Change of plans, I'll just walk into the sun.
>>98335262In my head, I'm looking for potential canidates. Any that pick to greet the sun are in canon before I find someone who can do it, and the rest are people who wanted to try for it, and the one with the highest probability of victory gets the dubious honor of canonically being the one thats actually attempting it. The rest are spun out in the void with thier own copy of the universe, which I think some people consider different timelines? But I can cross the void to get to their different worlds without directly touching the time dimension, so I don't know.>>98335272Any requests bud?
>>98335277Ideally a peaceful world with magic and modern amenities i guess
>>98335277>In my head, I'm looking for potential canidates.

So the end goal isn't even to eradicate all humans, this is just a gameshow for the gods?

>>98335290You got it. Chronothule - It's a lot like our world, only fracking reality for power was discovered long, long ago. (And since you're actually fracking the portions of reality that are too condensed to hold realspace you're actually growing the usable universe). Despite the name, Time magic's actually completely disbarred here. I'll drop you as a child of wealth with my signature Voidsoul mana ability. You don't naturally produce mana, but you can store a bottomless amount of it and can absorb it easily from your environment. Directed at you. You can also copy any spell you absorb to learn it instantaneously, though you can learn other spells as normal.If you want to just make passive income you can just sit and be a capacitor bank in one of the massive energy conglomerates' powerstations. Since your ability to absorb and put out energy is lossless, you are theoretically the most efficient form of power storage in the universe.
>>98335296The copies aren't real humans - don't tell them that though.It's expected that the rest will fail and the voidbubbles will collapse.

>>98335302A fuck, how did I miss that.>>98335324>special boons are kind of shit here and weirdly horny?Just didn't want to spend to much time on the CYOA so I threw in whatever came off the top of my head there>no idea why picking extra cost 5At that time when I wrote those choices I only planned on only writing Minor and Moderate powers, so you would have had enough points to throw around, Greater came later and I never changed the available points.I wouldn't have had any motivation to make the CYOA if not for the contest, I had the basic plans for it since 2021 with no intention of ever doing anything with it.>>98335335I've gotten away with plenty of lewd images so long as there are no visible nipples or genetalia
>>98335333ahh... so you bribed the truth ansible with a few model trains, to falsify information whatever the humans are real are not, so they will never know if they are in the real world or one of the alternate realities.

>>98334090Full review:Thoughts:Oscilliant Loop: D-This is the death of everything that matters, and everything that makes up my existenceI am the choices I make/The being making the choices, and this is an end to choice, where I spend eternity watching externally as many good and bad things happenThere is some small benefit in that there are others to talk to an a small connection to the outside worldD- tier. Deprevation of will, but Atleast it would be interestingStatic estates: CIt's an alright afterlife, with the added note that you can destroy the whole thingIt's all fiction regardless of what you do, so there isn't really a point in destroying or keeping anythingIn the end you are certain to find an equilibrium. A state at which you stop changing as a person, but having perfect memory means that you must willingly choose to do the same thing over and over for one to existThis implies that either you will spend enough time in the estates to start mapping them directly, or you will give up on existence and concious thought entirelyC tier. Not bad for being dead
>>98334090>>98335448The Forgotten maze: B+Obviously being stuck in a maze for a very long time is bad, but it's only 3x10^8 wide, it's very possible to escape, and you get more out of escaping every timeA perfect life means not dying young, or old, or older. Eventually this should/Must mean living long enough to make the deal an active benefitAnd the out is reincarnation, a perfectly net neutral choiceIf the maze is a perfect sphere with a radius of 1.5e8m^3 then it's volume should be 4pi/3(1.5e8)^3=(4.5)(pi)(e24)Assuming I cover a meter cubed per second, and that I don't have to backtrack, it would take me 1.3e25/3e7 years, or e16, or ten trillion years to cover the entire maze. Still worth itAlso, by the sounds of things I keep my mortal memories regardless, meaning I could just cheese it and never enter the mazeB+ Tier.

You just become a gambling immortal that cannot loseIt also has an notable amount of skill and competition possible. One can spend a whole afterlife divising games and cheats and smooth wordsA+ Tier. Better then base immortalityI choose the Karmic roulette. I am going to make a fortune and save trillions before god gets mad at me.Infinite board games

>>98335508Go ahead abuse it. I'll wait to see if there are any more typos but once I release the next version, I as the God of the world will wipe clean all mistakes.
>>98335525No i did, i'm just saying that I saw what you said earlier.
>>98334090forgotten maze would be a good choice if I had shonen protagonist levels of willpower so I will go instead for karmic roulette, it just seems like a nice place to meet pleople and if I play my cards right maybe reach apotheosis in due time, and time is something I have in spades.
>>98335515So nothing by woden then.
>>98335324>special boons are kind of shit hereIf anyone's got any ideas for 3 extra boons I'll add them in the next update. Provide manga images if possible, they're kinda hard to find
Any black cyoas, my big niggas?
>>98335545Ahh I had assumed as much.If anyone else posts a build to the kill 12 billion humans cyoa, I will not be answering for the next 8 hours. A selection of dear friends are coming over to play Eldritch Horror, a fun table top game where some Plucky Adventures try to keep us out of the world.I will be responding to any builds to it after that.
>>98335525>Honestly I'm surprised that more people aren't taking Void time, enpty mind, and isekai ticket have infinite time to get every question answered and then still get your Isekai adventureahh... I sorta thought you lose all of those powers once your disintegrated by the sun. But if you keep them Isekai is like a really good choice.
>>98335542You’re a dick for putting in restrictions anyway so I’ll spite you for now
>>98335590I had an idea for a custom level 9 perk cannibalism - if your black mist cuts off another Immortals black mist, you take it over - kind of like GO, when you flip the pieces. If it was just a boon, I would rename it to something like greedy, where if you can kill an immortal while his black mist is already cut off, then you can absorb it.>>98335593If someone's chill I'll probably forget to remove the boons bestowed in the Cyoa when I reincarnate them. If they take something like Primageniture no that's not going through.
>>98335619Meant for>>98335595You just have to pass the vibe check.There are layers to this and waves and layers between the waves. It's alwaves in the end though.
>>98335590Sounds fun, hope you have a good time.
>>98335600Such is life. We have the freedom to choose, but not the freedom to determine what choices are available.>>98335619>if your black mist cuts off another Immortals black mist, you take it over - kind of like GO, when you flip the pieces.Hey that's a pretty cool idea. Instead of battles being punching matches maybe add some sort of strategy to it? If I knew how GO is played it would be alittlle easier to write...
>>98335401>>98333859>once a morning every morningfug. I was gonna say something about how monotonous the choking will get, like shaking myself a smoothie every day before realizing I can KYS gremlin themactually I could make people kill themselves each day of the month and use empty mind to synthesize drugs so time passes faster. Hell, I can industrialize this I'm creating a growing religion that mandates constant human sacrifice in exchange for (increasingly rare) prophetic knowledge given to the high priest. Third degree should cover this, especially with many, many sects for redundancy. Once they're reliable enough I'll knock myself out for months at a time.I'll initiate HOLY OMNICIDE for the end-haul. I have to be a basement dweller for a century but there's no way around that, this is the least monotonous way to get it over with. At least I'm not punching 1 person a day for 12 billion days like a certain someone
>>98335657>Hey that's a pretty cool idea. Instead of battles being punching matches maybe add some sort of strategy to it? If I knew how GO is played it would be alittlle easier to write...Relay Link, Natural Weaponry, and Superior Autonomy basically turn the fights into matches between parasites from... well, parasyte. Best to let them duke it out while the humans try not to die. If you can let ya dark boi take over while in True Immortal merged form, you even remove that weakness.That's why the Go flip has to be so costly. Combined with RL, SA, and TI combined with it would be unbeatable without that exact combination, so you can't allow that combo to exist.

>>98335902On Earth no other magic exists natively to learn, it's more useful if you take the Isekai boon and enter a world where your IBM can learn actual magic from scratch. In that case they can do pretty much anything possible in that world's magic system given time. If you're desperate for magic on Earth then maybe some Human sacrifice rituals can create miracles or witchcraft hexes

>>98335590by boons I imagine you are looking for changes that affect everyone or the world around you and they don't provide a glaring advantage to the player so:stand user: ibm users tend to gravitate to each other, this doesn't enforce conflict just that they are more likely to meet each otheruplift: all ibm have superior autonomy, this means playes get it for free but everyone else gets it for free too, and they tend to develop romatic feelings for the userreverse truck-kun: if you don't want to go to the isekai, the isekai will come to you, very rarely your world will get people from other worlds, they retain all of their abilities if they had those but they will all be only as strong as an ibm user at most.this one is also pretty good >>98335700I'm going to be adding images for each boon, for the stand you could obviously get images from jojo's bizzare adventure

>>98336106We're on the tail end of the hobby's popularity. It's all downhill from here.
>>98336106I blame OR
>>98336150I blame popular franchiseslop. It excluded too many people for months on end this year.
>>98333295The redux this guy made is actually way worse than aromage's original. The only significant differences are 1) no android and 2) event railroad. 1) is a good change, but it's not that relevant. 2) is absurdly stupid; it turns the cyoa into a fucking numbers game, a math question.https://imgchest.com/p/lqyepdex7dn
I wonder what Aromage feels like irl...
>>98336154Franchise cyoas are one of the best ways to get people interested in cyoas. Just look at jumpchain
>>98336154this but entropist
>>98336150>>98336154>durr thing I didn't like being popular ruined the thread!
>>98336150OR saved usOR is the only reason the general is still here today>>98336106I don't entirely know, but I will note that all of 4chan has been going downhill and that most other websites are filled with botsWe aren't getting as many wanderers
>>98336207What is it with your love of acronyms in your titles? Of course there's nothing wrong with it - just curious if it's a self-conscious thing
I cursed this general because you guys shat on my ocYou get what you deservePieces of shit
>>98336224
>>98336222You mean in the intro? I tried to follow the theme of it being an official gov document and those use acronyms often, I think. I chose to call the CYOA IBM and not Immortal Black Matter because IBM sounded better.
>>98336224Just make a better cyoa next time wodan
>>98336207You wrote 'greater powers powers"
>>98336239Huh, I just looked through the rest of your oeuvre and I'm not seeing anything other than MSM. Guess I was tripping on that one. Not sure how else to describe your naming convention. You do use a lot of alliteration in them, anyway. Thanks for OC!
>>98336266FUCKING HELL
>>98336222Who is this author you're recognizing?
>>98336245Thats not even me nigga
>>98336274I mean, I assume it's Surinical. It has all the hallmarks. I don't feel like I usually see this kind of back and forth between him and anons though. I'm happy an older author participated in the contest if I am correct
>>98336207v1.2.1https://files.catbox.moe/zwsiqm.png>Fixed missing Esoteric Creature restriction in Viral Vector>Fixed 100km -> 10km in Viral Vector text>Increased darkness on all powers images>added 3 new boons and replaced Copycat boon with Beyonder Invasion>changed extra boon cost from 5 to 4 points>Stance on killing "I will kill no-one" added +1 Free Boon choice>Fucking Greater powers powers I hate making CYOAs so god damn much
>>98336268>oeuvrewhat?>MSMwhat?
>>98336296No, it's obviously dollanon.I should know. I inwittingly collaborated with dollanon despite being on the opposite sides of skubwar! CYOA creation unites anons like nothing else. This is the power of cyoas.
>>98336296Haha! if surinical made that cyoa it would be leagues better than anything else he had ever made with AI, since there's not name if he acts quick he can steal it and get all the credit
>>98336310B-but, my hard work...
>>98336207>replaced Copycat boon with Beyonder InvasionI was already icked by there being other immortals. Losing the option to restrict them to the same set of powers (and having no means to restrict who gets to be one in any useful way) definitely kills my interest.
>>98336308If you say so; I literally have no idea who that is>>98336310I don't know - seems par for the course to me. Only a bit of speculation!
>>98336320It is what it is, you can always just play version 1.1
>>98336298updated >>98334810>Form Advanced Robot>PowersParticle AccelerationFine TelekinesisCommunicationDark WormholeSuperior AutonomyInvisible ParticlesQuantum ComputingRelay Link>Stance on KillingOnly those who deserve it>SkillsComputer TechWordsmith>Challenges Weak WilledDiscovered>BoonsFree For AllLife RejuvenationWith the lack of magic on earth there's no point to being a wizard, so I'm going robot now. The idea is to keep my IBM in it's unformed state covering the maximum range at all times, so I have basically at will telekinesis, teleportation and invisibility within 10km. My IBM is way smarter than me thanks to Superior Autonomy/Quantum Computing so I'll just let it handle the problems for me.
>>98336322> I literally have no idea who that isDidn't you call yourself an oldfag some time ago?
>>98336224>noooo I should get as much attention as a professional serious artist that spends much more time and effort on their work :'(Come on bro. You ain't 5 years old anymore.
>>98336330I said I'd been here for over a decade, yes, with the caveat that for the vast majority of that time I came exclusively to look at CYOAs and only incidentally caught stuff about the social dynamics of the thread. I've seen people talk about Dollanon but I couldn't name any of their work. Even now, if I don't immediately associate an author with a CYOA I like, conversation about them goes over my head
>>98336358"Dollanon" is actually a moniker passed down, there was an original dollanon and then when he left the author now known as dollanon took that moniker and carried on its legacy iirc but he's not actually named dollanon in the archivebro's strangely invisible for an author of his ability, wouldn't you want to be noticed more easily?
>>98336370No, I'm 90% sure it's the same author who once inspired me to this extremely shallow copycat of his cyoa for which I prize him to a great height.
>>98336370Luv me anonymity, 'ate namefags
>>98336390Damn that's crazy, I had this cyoa saved in my CYOA folder for so long and couldn't remember ever making it. My memory's not very good...No such thing as a shallow copycat, any CYOA made is a good CYOA.
>>98336298Free-For-All + Shadow Games, take Viral Vector to make yourself a genius and build your IBM to trigger mental game to get every combination of powers.
>>98336537Would be much better with Quantum Computing.
>>98336451
>>98336207Hmm, this is actually substantially betterThank you anon
>>98336546I'm assuming your IBM can't help you in the mental game.
>>98336629what if your a true immortal? Then you can use all of its powers as your own
>>98336672Not all that effective in a mental realm
>>98336683its very effective if you have both Quantum Computing and superior autonomy
>>98336689Since true immortal is explicitly a power that merges you into your IBM I assume you would forceably torn from it even then
>>98336672No idea if Quantum Computing works when you aren't connected to the internet, which you might not be during mental battle, also make it harder to start a mental battle, and the 200IQ from Superior Autonomy doesn't feel like enough when everything is on the line.Communication probably allows your IBM to talk to you during the mental battle, so Quantum Computing might still be usable.
>>98336693there is nothing implying that you can't use it, why would you be unable to use a power you have?
>>98336702Because all the powers are generated by the IBM not you yourself
>>98336705and is there anything stating you can't use powers generated by the IBM yourself?
>>98336720I mean, it doesn't explicitly say that in the intro buit every power begins with "Your IBM can" and not "You can" so it seems more like your IBM is neccessary as an intemediary to use its power at your command. If you lose your IBM you lose all its powers including revival
>>98336753oh, actually specifically powers like True immortal and Incorporation say that "You can", instead of "Your IBM can".and in True Immortal case it say "You can use all its powers as if they were your own"
>>98336298How much know-how is needed to use Viral Vector ?Do taking the Minor and Moderate version of a power do anything or it's just a waste of a point ?
>>98336771>"While your IBM is absorbed into your body you can"It still requires your IBM to use the pwoer just that while isnide your body you can use it like it comes from you>"You can use all ITS powers"
>>98333859Realistically i would prefer to just soak in the sun and isekai than to do this but that's no proper build. >Form changeThe Little Girl as it is tradition.>Strength of voidI am just gonna bruteforce my way through.>SuggestionI noticed that there is not a power that allows you to move around the world quickly and i need to kill daily. So how about something like this? I can go and void the space between two places on demand making travel trivial. Or along those lines. Would allow me to avoid the sun trivially by traveling to the other side of earth so that's nice too.>Empty mindI need to know WHERE people are and How many are there and my killcount and... You get the point. It would be hard as hell for me to keep track of it myself and failing because i lost track would be infuriating.>PlanProbably until there is enough people for me to complete the quota i will keep it small and kill a couple of people daily. Once there is enough people to kill i will go on a constant rampage until i hit the kill goal. Simple. Effective. Will take time but so long i keep killing i don't have to worry about anything.
>>98336805Looks like all moderate versions are just all better minor versions
>>98336809which should work if the mind game happened while you already have your body absorbed in it.Like there is no other mind to be pulled in besides the one that is already enhanced by the powers. As there is no biological mind to be pulled in.
Gil pls come back ;(
>>98336838I'm right here, also stop posting about me. It's annoying
>>98336845>lyingYou are going to hell for that
>>98336224I think my OC was just okay. It didn't get the level of engagement I wanted, but it didn't get shat on. Just kind of, okay. I kinda wanna go back and remake it but I just dont wanna.
>>98336847Not lying, quit it
>>98336853>I kinda wanna go back and remake it but I just dont wanna.>remake itThis is why you will never make good OC, you want to polish a turd and not create something new
I am gil please keep posting about me
>>98336864Sure but I really wanna make sure its perfect. Remaking it allows me to get rid of its potential flaws (or replace them with better flaws) and focus on its strengths. I can't just abandon it! Like I have! And will continue to do!
>>98336879It was flawed the moment it got less engasgement than you wanted, it already proved itself as not interesting to anons
>>98336858You are not gil
>>98336886>So certian he's lyingSuspiscious. Only reason you would be so assured he's not gil is if you are gil.Then in that case you've been shitposting your own name all this time.Cringe...
>>98336888I am not gil shut up
>>98336889>Immediately defensive at being seen through his obviously transparent attention whoringOkay gil you sad sack of shit
>>98336885Yes because their were flaws present, which would be partially fixed by a remake. And besides, it did get engagement. Not the level I wanted of course, but an acceptable level my most metrics.
Why are you all taking about that kid from Johnny Test?
>>98336812>Will take time but so long i keep killing i don't have to worry about anything.Not OP, but It's a bit jarring how pea-brained puncher builds are. 12 billion is a BIG number. A person walks 200 million steps in 80 years, there are 30 million seconds in a year. Even one person per second will have you get outbred by third worldersYour build does actually have world-ending potential if you get creative, though. Try to figure it out
>>98336912Is that really how you envision him
>>98336845Youre not gil, I am!
>>98336998Suuuuure
>>98336993Shitposting I genuinely don't know who gil is. But whenever I see the name gil I think of that dude from johnny test
>>98336912>>98336993For me it’s bell cranel
Nah he’s Shirou Emiya
>>98336958I am saving wrecking vital infrastructure and dropping junk from orbit for later
>>9833695812 billion days is roughly 32 million years. One human killed a day for 32 million years. Humanity might no longer be recognizable as human after the first few million years. Might as well hurry it up rather than dragging one's feet.8 billion currently with total goal of 12 billion, left 4 billion. Approx. 360k infants born per day, if you just wait in the ward and wipe them as they come out then you might be able to hit your goal in about 30 years, but that's the absolute minimum and probably unachievable anyway as the rest of the human population dwindles
>>98336958>>98337046Become a billionaire and invest in cloning technology. Does a fetus or embryo count as a human?
>>98337046>invincible babypuncher wandering the planet, menacingly watching a woman give birth>can't be everywhere at once but there's always a chance
>>98337254Can't you just punch the pregnant woman in the belly?
>>98337278I guess, but that makes you the immortal pregantwomanpuncher, which doesent have the same ring to it.
>>9833695831 million31536000 seconds in a year
>>98335799Same. Simple but extremely evocative.Naisu BuilderuVery cozyI assume the Drones will be your main weapon? Hope it doesn't make the other gangs gang up on your bosses gang.>>98335911Sounds fun as fuck. Do you remember some of the builds?>>98335813what's the tldr?>>98335779Job: Gang Member>Universal Translator, Free>Station Map, -4>NOBOT, -4>YOBOT, -4>Maintenance Access, -10>Toolband, -2>Rebreather, -2>Snacks, -1>Jumpsuit, -1>Alien Pet - Small, -2>Stun Gun, FreeThe plan is to do my best to get in good with my gang. With the tunnel access I should be able to get in and out of areas they need me to and having the map with the bot upgrades will make navigation easier and safer.Having pizza and wine through the snack option will break up the monotony of the nutrient cubes and water. The rebreather is pretty much mandatory for long term maintenance exploration and opens up my options of where to run and hide if I'm ever in trouble. The jumpsuit and toolband are just for utility and comfort.Having personal quarters would have been nice but it takes up a pretty good chunk of credits. Hopefully the gang has a safe and comfortable area I can stay in. Any of the Serums are also tempting, but again, way to many credits. No, I'm happy with the versatility all my little bits and pieces affords me.
>>98336298>female formWhat if I want my Irritable Bowel Movement to be a thicc twink?
>>98337046How many women would need to be impregnated to get up to lets say 500000 infants born per day
>>98337712While at first blush this is the dumbest fucking question imaginable. But, you have to factor in twins and miscarriages. One in 1000 are twins, so that means you would only need 499500 to get 500,000 babies, but 20% of impregnations result in muscarriages, so you'd need 624,375 to get 500,000 babies.
>>98337679>Sounds fun as fuck. Do you remember some of the builds?Even better, I found this image by typing "cyoagang" on desuarchive
>>98337679Nano-serum reads like it turns you into a sort of techno-shaman. The drones seem more like animals than people. They will respond to simple commands, “protect me”, or “remove him please”, etc. I’m assuming weapons can be found anywhere, or not too difficultly. Breaking into my personal cell is likely to attract drone attention as well.
>>98335799>>98337679>>98337828The entire place is run by the drones. It’s a very powerful option. Take the weather machine to cause some real havoc.
>>98333973Is the anime/manga good?
>>98337944Always read what we make CYOAs of. Start by Danmachi though.
>>98336812>suggestionOh, I love teleportation, and that's super on theme. Yea, Voidstep is an ability I can offer, I'm suprised I didn't remember it when I was putting this together. Usually I limit it to places you've been to for safety concerns, but with empty mind reading you spatial coordinates, it should be safe enough to blind jump. Once you master that, I'll throw in Pathways into Darkness, from a class I built on one of my DnD worlds.Pathways into Darkness (Su): “Like the infestation they are, they scurry through dark places” - Arcanist La’rein.At 10th level, *edited, you can have one up at all times, instead of once per day* The Dissonant may make a semi-stable gateway of Darkness that links two locations that are not warded against evil or chaos. As a full round action, The Dissonant summons a 5‘x5’x5’ gateway in any square within 30’ of her, and a second 5‘x5’x5’ gateway anywhere on the same plane and planet that she has approximate knowledge of. The exact location of the second gate is determined by familiarity in the same way as the spell Teleport, except for the following modifications:*Edited, since you are considered one of mine, it's unerring*The Dissonant does not know where the second portal actually went to, until they step through it.If cast from the plane of shadows, the second gate may cross back into the material plane. These gates last 1 minute, though The Dissonant may spend 1 point from her Dissonance Pool per 1 minute the gates stay open longer. Any may enter the gateways, from either side. Upon entering either gate, those who enter perceive a 100’, 20’ wide shadowy path between the two gates. This path must be crossed to reach the other gate. Those trapped between gates when they close are shunted to the plane of shadows, somewhere betwixt the two gates. Those who are pushed or walk off of the pathway are similarly deposited into the plane of shadows.
>>98336812Your plan has been criticized, though I;m not sure which anon is posting what by the end, suffice to say, one kill per day is too slow to be reasonablen for victory, but some slight alterations wil give you a non-negligible chance.
>>98337892>>98337892>>98337892>>98337892>>98337892A tad early; come by whenever.
>>98336150We will post OR every thread until you like it
>>98337679>what's the tldr?An advanced alien species of hot girls has kidnapped you for a televised death battle where you (and a bunch of other ugly bastards and hot girls from across the galaxy) are sent onto their custom arena-world to go fight it out (or do whatever you want to each other). The winner gets to not have their planet wiped out/enslaved, and also a bunch of money and fame as a reality TV star so thats nice. You would pick a bunch of super strong augments/equipment (since as a base human it wouldnt be very interesting) and then who would be on your team (the people you dont pick are - naturally - your enemies and will try and kill/rape you). Theres also a bunch of native threats to worry about because people running it felt like a bunch of genetically modified monsters would really spice things up. Technically the cyoa was intended to be SFW, but only "technically sfw", and figuring out exactly how much I could get away with was a pain in the ass so its on permanent hold.
