>>98768301I still wanna play PA and DC, what's with this gay ass shit
It would be metal if this thread was created to drop the elden ring OC
>>98768650Gonna post'em?
>>98768301Is there a better Harry Potter cyoa than the one we tried before? Or maybe a better magical school cyoa? The recent Malfoid memes got me in the mood for a magic school setting that groups students into overly simplistic houses for mostly arbitrary and inoffensive tribalism. Not split based on more meaningful reasons like specialized magic, if that makes sense. Like I wanna say my transfigurer friend is better than yours.
>>98768301hey you forgot the link to the previous thread>>98662567
>>98770233He forgot a lot more than that.
>>98769599>Is there a better Harry Potter cyoa than the one we tried before?Not really. There are a couple but one is nsfw, one is interactive, and the latest one is completely made by AI, not the images, the whole cyoa.>Or maybe a better magical school cyoa?>a magic school setting that groups students into overly simplistic houses for mostly arbitrary and inoffensive tribalismFor this there are some, but none fit 100%. Boarmort academy is a clear parody of Hogwarts, it has 8 houses with relatively minor impact on the whole thing. It has other problems, with a complicated point system being one of them.The Build a Wizard cyoa was made specifically with multiplayer in mind, and has houses, but they are kinda divided by a personality test of sorts so the division would end up being mechanical too unless we fudge the numbers since magic choices contribute to your final house score.Technically Witch Awakening has Hawthorne, which is almost a 1 to 1 parody of Hogwarts with a couple additions, complete with meaningless houses and now with even the sorting hat. Of course the rest of the cyoa is massive and that's not even counting all the DLCs officially recognized by the author, so it would be pretty rules heavy to try and run that way, with some setting aggreements necessary as well.That's about all I can think of with preexisting houses, other than Rapture but that's not just magic and the houses are much more important.Now, there are some with a more generic magic academy where houses could be placed by us with not many problems. Mage School is a pretty simple cyoa and the addition of personality based houses would fit well enough. Not much more to say about that. Soulheart Academy is another one that could have houses added, it need a bit more cooperation to choose the general feel but is otherwise also pretty simple.Innermost Institute is another one. It's a mix of stuff other than magic too, but it fits the mostly magic adademy feel.
>>98769599>>98770352I ran out of characters.Anyway, Innermost institute has dorms, but they can be replaced with houses or simply treated as a temporary location until a house is chosen.Eternal Rising is a bit more complex, but it does have an academy arc in the middle so we could use that and add houses to it.I think one of the settings in A Quiet CYOA was a magic academy, but that one has a whole different vibe.Lastly Deviant Dawn could have an academy added? I don't remember if it has one or not, I'm reaching pretty far by now but at least this one is new. It just popped up in the galleries while I was searching and I never saw it here.I can't remember any other academy cyoas, but I can keep looking, there is at least one that I don't remember the name of but it had no houses, and it wasn't just magic.
>>98770383At this point we could also just pick a random cyoa and slap an academy with houses on it. Like Arknights academy edition or Mushoku Tensei academy edition.
Fate Run: Post Faterena where German Peasants have taken over the world after BTFOing every single Faterena build
>>98770233He obviously didn't forget
>>98768650Who are you in PA?
>>98770416Lucky for you, both of those settings have some sort of magic school we could work with.
With the rise of malfoid in public eye why not a run of harry potter again?

>>98772472I would honestly rather we headcanon the timeline and change the canon characters. Anons can make teachers and a headmaster and a different big bad or group of big bads. No voldy or dumby. Just keep the house founders and that's basically it. We could probably tweak and expand on the founders too if someone cares enough. Keep it in the 90s though because that's part of the charm of the setting
>>98768632Fuck you we will never play that
>>98773288 I would
>>98773350We have had this debate half a dozen times already. The setting sucks, the power level is too low, and the mechanics aren't suited for multiplayer.
>>98773375>The setting sucksThat's subjective, you just don't like it. Many others cleary do like it since it keeps being proposed.>the power level is too lowThat's also subjective bordering on just straight bullshit.> and the mechanics aren't suited for multiplayer.And this is just not true.We did have this debate half a dozen times already, but that doesn't mean we reached a conclusion on it. You hate it, others like it, don't pretend the thread decided it can't be run because that's not the case.
>>98771906It attracts shitposting almost as much as danmachi. And it also attracts canonfagging.

>>98773811Fate Run: Kingdom Builder and we play as the lords of territories
>>98773707I don't remember the first and the second should be easy to ignore, especially if we're doing an academy thing. We can alter canon as we like

>>98772701>Replace The Sith with "The Dark Brotherhood" - A group of powerful darkside adepts, acolytes, fallen jedi, and assassins. Their membership has influence in most if not all other factions. Their intent is unknown but they strike with proficiency and without mercy to their enemies.Lmao, isn't that just Sideous' cult in NuWars?
>>98775983Pretty sure the entire plot is just ripped from pre disney canon.In case you're curious there was some weird shit going on with mass shadows that caused all the hyperspace disasters.
>>98773811>>98775824I'm down for something like that
>>98774305Not me lol but would be fun to see. I did a "mudblood" Slytherin (no magical blood but Muggle nobility) last go around tho
>>98773257Sure
If I make a Harry Potter build is anyone else going to participate?
>>98777926Yeah, me.
I've got an idea.Boy from a prestigious pureblood family that got wiped out in the wizarding war. Now it's just him and his sister. He has an enormous name to live up to and isn't prepared at all to handle the responsibility left to him. Very prideful. Quick to anger. Fiercely protective of his sister. Not particularly talented. Not great at magic. Deeply ashamed of that fact and highly motivated to change it. Family and legacy mean everything to him but here's just not worthy of what was left to him. Not yet. And if anyone calls him out on it he's going to fight and probably lose which means he'll have to fight again. And he just keeps digging himself deeper into conflicts and rivalries. He needs power. He's desperate for it.
>>98777926Nah school settings feel very tired at this point.
>>98777926I don't hate it, it sounds fun, but I don't have a good build in mind for it. That's why I would prefer a different magic school cyoa, like the build a wizard one, they give me more ideas.I can try if it starts but I don't have anything for it right now.
>>98778090I could swear there already is a character like that in canon HP. Maybe in the game.Speaking of the game, the new AI made cyoa does have one thing going for it, the ancient magic from the game.>>98778126And yet they are stil the most popular and people keep suggesting them.
>>98778126Hold on a minute.You've got house politics. Clubs. Ghosts. Hidden rooms. Typical school shit like people stealing homework and roommates acting weird. Rivalries. Holidays that the whole school participates in. Hogsmede and the forbidden forest. Magical studies. Magical creatures.What plot hooks are you missing exactly? The strongest part of HP as a setting is the school.
>>98778152It does get repetitive dont it? >>98778165Yeah theres no missing elements, we just keep talking about school settings every thread and it gets old.
>>98778165Nta but I don't think the problem is just the school here. He just doesn't want a school setting, he's not asking for "HP without the school" he's just saying he doesn't like HP because it's a school setting.>The strongest part of HP as a setting is the school.Yes, and that's exactly the problem here. If he doesn't like the school aspect then there is very little left of value in HP. Listing out all the good points of it is useless when the base premise is what he dislikes.
>>98778152Sebastion Sallow.>>98778183But I haven't played any of the school settings. So for me this is basically brand new.
>>98778188Whatever floats your boat man
>>98778183>It does get repetitive dont it?Maybe, but that doesn't change the fact it serves its purpouse very well. It's a very easy source of plot hooks, reasons to keep builds close, general direction, and an easy to understand scope. It's also just fun, it works as a setting because it allows a lot of things that other settings do not. There is a reason why it's so popular, it just works.How repetitive it is depends mostly on execution, like most things, so just dismissing it because "we already did it" feels like cop out answer.
>>98777926I feel like I'd make a character and then fraud after.
>>98778207Anon, people just like school settings. You're making it look like it's some incomprehensible thing but it isn't.
You guys are going to write for this, right?
>>98778259Anon, what about this seems hopeful to you? We have 3 guys who want to do this, and 1 doesn't even know what they want to do for it. The rest is someone clearly against it and a defense of school settings in general. It doesn't really say "solid MP" to me.
>>98772472>>canon timeline>>canon characters and story all existWhy? Why would you ever do that? That always only gets in the way of MPs.
>>98778284I wanna date Luna
>>98778389Nobody is stopping you from dating Not!Luna, just make esssentially the same character without any of the baggage of canon for the rest of the MP. Then make your build date her.
>>98778284I don't think it gets in the way of anything. Start with a rich setting and people modify it as they see fit.
>>98778389I'm pretty sure Luna either dies, gets with someone else already, or both, so it would be in your best interest to not have canon actually. Wasn't she the one who ends with Harry?
>>98778411But it does. Canon already has a clear narrative, and clear protagonists, so everything we do would end up being meaningless unless we ignore the whole thing, at which point why have it in the first place, or usurp the protagonist position. The setting is rich enough without Harold Vasemaker saving the world from the man with no nose, or without the greatest wizard of all times who refuses to live up to that title or even act competent.
>>98778433okay well your alternative is infinitely worseanother blank slate with nothing in it is the last thing we need
So Tom Riddle got aborted. The rest of the canon changes accordingly. Good enough?
>>98778440>another blank slate with nothing in it is the last thing we needAnon, what the fuck is wrong with you? How does an entire setting, with established rules and creatures, suddenly become a blank slate just because you removed the characters?Does pokemon become a blank slate just because you remove Ash? A setting can exist without the characters, and we personally don't need the characters because we are supposed to be the ones making them. Equating the whole setting to the characters is just retarded.
>>98778440If you lack the creativity to make a story without the canon characters you shouldn't be here.
>>98777926Yeah, I'd make one.
>>98778259Is writing really that important? I usually do a chart and try to do a writefag or two, but not everyone's skill points were put into writing. Anon making a dumb meme about my build is usually more memorable than my build saying 2 lines in a writefag. The characters cards some people used to make were cool too.
>>98778459>>98778463we've tried this beforeno one ever makes the setting
>>98778520MHA?
>>98778519If the entire adventure is just people rambling in a thread then what do you really have? Its just an extended Facebook conversation then. Or a really laggy chat room. People get so assmad about being expected to write its hilarious.
>>98778440>>98778520It's this guy again. Don't listen to him, all his takes are retarded and made to start shit. The last time it was that NPCs don't exist and the only real interactions are between PCs, now the setting doesn't exist without characters. He's either retarded or shitposting, either way arguing is pointless because you can't change his mind.
>>98778529What I described was already more than that. I just don't see the point of expecting everyone to write when the people who don't like it will just waste their time and fraud or put out something subpar. I'd rather they do other stuff that they actually find fun, because anons doing fun stuff is what gives me writefag ideas and motivation.
>>98773811We've had a few good starts with Domain Master but they never really went anywhere which is a real shame. I think we even talked about starting up the God Engine one after Spirit Conscript back when it was first dropped but we never got back to it after the great downing.
>>98772472Should I invent a pureblood family name that isn't in the sacred 28 or do I just borrow one of them?
>>98778586Depends, if you want to bring in one of the existing ones as a baseline, go for it. If you want more narrative control over a pureblood family I'd take a new name.
>>98778586It doesn't make any difference if we don't follow canon
>>98772472I'd prefer this >>98773257Either way, for anons working on builds, what houses are you going for? I don't have anything in mind yet, so I'll probably go whatever route keeps the numbers balanced out.
>>98778622But why? You take a hundred character ready to go and replace it with literally nothing.Why not just keep all the characters and let people modify or replace them as needed? It solves the empty cast problem and gains all of the benefits of people wanting customization.
>>98778638Seems less fun to include them
>>98778647Are you going to explain or is that all?
>>98778638It's baggage. If we take canon we have to make the whole world revolve around Harry and voldemort, we need to have Albus as the incompetent but actually invincible headmaster. we need to take all the little things that take away narrative freedom and meaning from the MP.>let people modify or replace them as needed?The problem is that it's already needed for like half the cast. Baseline we need to get rid of the whole plot, and if the plot is gone why keep the characters?We could do this >>98778446 but then we need to bother coming up with what happend to the cast because of it. Without voldemort Harry would still have his parents and he would just be a norml wizard boy getting into hogwarts, but how would that change him? It's a whole lot of effort for something that ultimately shouldn't matter. Making up new characters takes the same amount of effort and is actually useful to have our own narrative instead, where things we do actually matter.
>>98778638Just copy Hogwarts Legacy tbqh
>>98778662We've seen them before. I don't care about a potions professor who hates Harry Potter's dad, because this story isn't about Harry Potter. I'd rather see anon's potions professor who has his/her own dynamic with the students. I'd rather see anon's headmaster. I'd rather see anons' villains. Etc.
>>98778686I wanna date Professor Garlick
My only character idea so far is a transfer student from Durmstrang.
>>98772472Can we reflavour choices to do something similar but for a different thing? I have an idea and it would be easier to make it work like this but I can try to make it work even without it. It would just feel better personally.
>>98778732No, you can't reflavor your wand as a nuclear warhead
>>98778622>what houses are you going for?I'm not sure. I wanted to go for Ravenclaw, but my idea may be a bit on the nose if I choose that so it may be better to go for something else. On the other hand both Slythering and Griffindor feel overdone so...
>>98778742I don't see the similarity there so how did you even think about it?
>>98778751Similar is subjective. I can't answer your question without you being more specific.
>>98778732As someone who does this on occasion, basically just do it and put down on your sheet what you changed for other anons to look over. Suspicious anons who think homebrewers are secretly trying to powergame are much more reasonable when they see what you're doing and can discuss it.
>>98778748>a bit on the noseDoesn't sound like a big deal to me>both Slythering and Griffindor feel overdoneSounds like you don't really want to do either of thoseI say don't worry about it being too on the nose or go with hufflepuff
Fuck it! Call me unoriginal but I'm about to make a blonde Slytherin chick. Do not steal this idea.
>>98778776Hey if it ain't broke
>>98778776You actually sniped me, asshole. Black hair it is.
>>98778676It also helps people to keep the narrative straight when you dont pull up every common point of reference. Go too far down that road and you may as well make your own setting and be done with it.
>>98779619I don't see any reason to worry about that.
>>98778519>Is writing really that important?Yes it is. I would argue it's the MOST important thing. That's what MP CYOAs are to me, collaborative creative writing exercises. Do you have a better definition?>but not everyone's skill points were put into writingSo use the thread to improve. Seek constructive criticism. If none comes? That's a reflection on the collective, not you.
>>98772472Innate Magic maxxing supernatural weirdo Slytherin girl, all bloodlines and natural power but very little talent for magic or Big Barry core friendly half giant battlestaff Hufflepuff D.A.D.bro?
>>98780355Slytherin girlBring me more slytherin girls
>>98772472I don't like wandless spellcasting being a thing
>>98780460it's only for very minor shit like lighting candles and changing the colors of banners
>>98780480That's not what the option says.
>>98780480No it isn't? It's a full 15 point option that straight up says you can do magic without a wand just as well as with one, if not better. It even says that if you're good enough you can use it to multicast.
>>98780460It's tasteless.
>>98780499>>98780510Yeah well the cyoa says a lot of soulless bullshit.A first year student can barely cast simple spells, let alone multicast without a wand.Dumbledore was the most talented wizard ever with like 100 years of practice and the most powerful wand to ever exist and even he wasn't that crazy powerful.
>>98780431Unfortunately anon I got heavily inspired by the Hufflepuff concept after asking. The only problem is now I need to find art of the buffest powerlifter with a soft face I possibly can that doesn't stand out too much.
>>98780554that sounds really gay
>>98780553>>98780533And it's another episode of canofaggers ruining the run.
>>98780561Start lifting boy, this is bear country.
>>98780594play franchiseslop games, get canonfag prizes
>>98780594I'm pretty sure it's canon that Africans can do wandless magic. It's just super boring compared to wands that have unique strengths and weaknesses based on their components, and the fact that they're sentient and choose their master.
>>98772472I don't entirely like this art and will change the concept the more we define the lore/vibes of the run, but I wanted to get the character out there in case anyone wanted to bounce off them when genning or to make sure I'm not stepping on toes;>NameThomas Wylde>FamilyPure-Blood>HouseHufflepuff>Wand WoodPear>Wand CoreUnicorn Tail>Wand LengthVery Long>Wand FlexibilitySupple>Magical TalentsD.A.D.A+ (Dark+/Defence+/Offence+) [-30]Magical Creatures++ [-10]>Magical TraitsPart-Giant [-4]>Signature SpellsEpiskey (Powerful) [-5]Protego (Powerful) [-4]Stupify (Powerful) [-4]>PerksBrave [-1]Dotty (Dumb) [+15]Funny [-1]Hardworking [-6]Reflexes [-4]Social Skills [-2]>WealthWell-Off>ItemsAnnotated Textbook (General Academics) [F]Battle Staff [F]Love Locket [-1]>PetsGiant (Brother) [-2]Hippogriff (Pet) [-1]Toad (Pet)>School LifeLibrarySocialize>ElectivesCare of Magical CreaturesMuggle Studies
>>98780803>ConceptOne of the senior students in Hufflepuff, Thomas Wylde is renowned throughout Hogwarts as a nonjudgemental, supportive and thoroughly positive hypeman for fellow students, regardless of their House. Hardworking and affable, he can usually be found diligently attempting to fix his wonky grades, working on his supernatural physique or helping struggling peers in whatever way he is capable; oftentimes, concerned tutors might point him in the direction of the friendless or unconfident, asking him to help where direct teacher intervention might prove improper.It is no secret that he is not an intelligent man, struggling with concepts that more talented wizards find trivial. This hampers most of his magical efforts, save for the spectrum of D.A.D.A., where he shows a strong case of savant syndrome. Rather than be dissuaded by his deficiencies, he spends much effort studying to maintain a passing grade in all classes.His most notable quality is his literally giant physique inherited from his mother's side. Towering over even the professors and made larger still by a devoted regime of strength training, he is liable to solve problems with his hands as often as his spells. As relatively new orphan, he also looks after his far larger younger brother, who lacks the magical capabilities to be a wizarding student and lives in Hogsmeade.
>>98780803please pick a less gay faceclaim
>>98780827I do need to find something a little more fitting but it's surprisingly difficult to find something that works without compromising on them being absolutely jacked. The general combination of hugely muscular and soft features does make it even harder to find something that's less gay too, though them channelling the Ricardo dance is extremely funny to me for some reason.
>>98780827Let a himbo nigga be a little pretty before twink death hits in his 20's anon, c'mon. He has pic related to look forward to.
>>98780850we're supposed to be playing school kids
>>98780873Hogwarts goes up to 18 like most English academies, no?
>>98780876so why not just pick Cedric as a faceclaim or something
>>98780889Extremely good call actually, thanks anon.
I have too many points. How am I supposed to make a build like this?
>>98780941According to the CYOA Hermione straight just has all 3 major Magical Talents, Brilliant and possibly more so you could always pick up a few different magic schools and round out with equipment?
I forgot about the eternal quest for faceclaims, I'm starting to lose motivation. My house may be determined by what I find.
>>98780554Webtoon
>>98777926mmmmm nyo...There just never seems to be an actual drive within the setting. Normally that's the case for a lot of CYOA's so we make our own, but I've barely seen people care about actually taking classes within Hogwarts, or doing anything in the wizarding world.

We're not seriously doing an MP because of the Malfoid meme right.
>>98782202Idk about you guys, but I've been a fan of blonde Slytherin chicks way before the Malfoid meme.
I'd like the record to show that I was always a fan of tsunderes. I did not hop onto a rule 63 bandwagon.
>>98782172I did not expect a back story like that. Also, a Slytherin with Muggle Studies as her elective?
>>98782318I don't know why I missed Divination. It'd be more fitting given the whole prophecy thing. I guess I have to replace that.
>>98782318You need to know a race to be properly racist against it.
