Jumpchain CYOA Thread #686: No jumper you are the fae edition

What is the most powerful type of vampire in jc?

>>45230930
The Cpire.

>>45230930
I would guess Alucard from Hellsing, but I'm not sure about Dracula from Castlevania.

>>45230952
Those only exist in meta silly anon. Also red. But her strain seems to be contained to her a a couple other makers.

>>45230930
Hellsing and GUNNM, I suppose. Also, World of Darkness vampires are very versatile.

>>45230899
Which jump is the best for becoming a fae?

I know Dresden lets you choose a powerful fae parent if you take that one background, and Changeling lets you be a changeling, but what other options are available?

>>45230999
Awwww, you're making me smile. But you know what they say, quality over quantity!

>>45231051
There's actually not a lot of options for becoming a faerie/Fair Folk, last I recall. Mainly because most settings paint them as fucking insane or ridiculously OP, so it might be a case of a low number of candidates. Of course, nothing's stopping anyone from trying to make another jump involving them.

Viking Saga's Elf kind of functions like some weird fae-type, though? In a 'different myth version' at least. I bet if we had a jump with more celtic themes it would be ridiculously easy to throw it in.

>>45230999
For now...

Fine then. Ah, I guess if we're going by which are the most stupidly overpowered I'd lean towards Touhou just for it's conceptual nonsense and base specs. Followed by Tsukihime for true ancestors although they surpass the former in base specs. After that Hellsing followed by Rosario, followed by Dresden, followed by WoD.

C'tan are star vampires but we don't talk about C'tan.

>>45231051
Depends somewhat on what kind of fae you're looking for, and whether the creepier/weirder elves count.
D&D, as usual.
Warhammer Fantasy.
Narnia, kind of.
Civilisation, though getting fey powers from it might be a bit scummy for 100cp.
For a certain value of "fae" Commorragh.
Disney.

>>45231051
Gargoyles, kinda? You can be Fae-Blooded at least.

>>45231169
There is also the scroll of thoth in that that lets you gain the power of one of them.

>>45231250
Oh yeah, that. For the benefit of the oddballs who care about their identity or whatever, IIRC one of the guys who tried it didn't really act like he was possesed by a fae/god at all, more like he was achieving his final form.

>>45231032
GUNNM Vampires are actually pretty lame. They're mostly just running off of ridiculous skill stockpiled through the ages, with one or two biological tricks. Admittedly the Karma Chameleon boost is pretty damn absurd if assumed to be approaching the level of Caerula Sanguinus, who managed to hand the Imaginos body protagonist her ass while being a biological being, and not the Venusian "made with clarktech biology" sort either. Somewhat above normal human but no cybernetics, only ridiculous skills at reading her opponent.

>>45230930
Castlevania vampires can be scary customers, at least if the three we've seen (Drac, Olrox, and Walter) are anything to judge by.

Is there anything similar to senzu beans?

>>45230930
Shinso vmapires from Negima/UQ Holder tend to have near-Alucard levels of regeneration, impressive physical specs, an immunity to traditional vampire weaknesses, and powerful magic.

>>45231520
Well you could fuck around with D&D potions and make healing jellybeans I suppose, If you mean actual grown healing plants I'm less sure.

Try Toriko maybe?

>>45231526
Add to this shinsos in rosario vampire can be giegeresque kaiju monstrocities.

So what happens if I make a sword or scythe out of pure octiron? Or a heat gun?

>>45231904
You get a magic sword/scythe/heat gun, ofcourse.

What kind of magic it would have is more of a question. And propably different on a case by case basis, considering that it's noted to be uncontrolled.

You can propably look at the Magic Sword item in the jump for things it could possibly do.

>>45231981
Oh. Or an anti-magic sword, maybe. Forgot to add that.

>>45231904
The first one is probably Close to the Tenseiga, I don't know about the second one though.

>>45231904
Since someone else already handled all of the sword/scythe stuff, I'll just add there may be a possibility you can devise a heat gun that shoots prefabricated spells. Discworld wizard magic at least not only at least partially runs on a D&D wizard style prepare-spells-keep-them-in-your-pocket-and-then-unleash-them, but is very compatible with magitech-to the point the younger wizards have more or less invented magitech without thinking of it as such, just because the nature of magic is such that it can be sufficiently analysed to the point of being used like science.

Oh, and whatever you do-DON'T MAKE THE HEAT GUN ON THE DISC unless you want it to develop a machine spirit that urges its' wielders to shoot everything in existence. Someone built a simple gun-well, "gonne"-and it developed a consciousness of its' own before going on a rampage. A jumpertech heat gun would be infinitely worse.

>>45232025
Really? Damn. Now I kinda want to build a gun on the Disc, and pod it... Maybe an infinite ammo minigun?

Objective: Have fun! Make things a bit easier for Crona, as well. Prevent her from betraying the school, be her Maka. Other than that, just do the usual. Grab Dna/ Recreation stuffs from every notable character, such as Death, Death the kid, Mosquito, etc. Also: help out Maka's dad. He could use a little touch of reality.

Temptation is my largest issue, but I've got enough willpower perks to counter. Witching hour is a mere irritance relative to past events. I've got paralysis potions for it, anyway. Think of the children just means I'll have to prevent Medusa from getting away the first time. Slapstick i would've taken for 0 points. Too good.

I grabbed Madness Release because it's weakened less by the ADW than the passive is. It's also /really/ good with being 2 kinds of Esper.

>>45233806
You became Mr Rogers? Why would you take that away from yours-

-oh right. I forgot you make terrible decisions.

>>45233918
>>45233883
I think he'd phrase it as becoming a tyrant or a dictator, not realizing that that's the best that can be done in 40K because everything is horrible and every other option leads even more to Chaos than tyranny does.

The Mechanicus is as competent as it can possibly be, and the Machine Spirits really do take offense to a lack of ritual. You lose half a continent if that tank isn't treated just right.

The Administratum has to do the paperwork of an entire, constantly-changing galaxy which can sometimes take centuries to relay information to them.

Every genocide, every scream of suffering that goes unheard, every exploded planet, every senseless waste of life is the best option the Imperium, that last, best hope for humanity, even has, because any other action would lead to the universe screwing over all mankind and all the aliens too, but even harder than it already does.

40K is so GRIMDARK your options are to either treat the whole thing as a gigantic joke or lose interest because there's no hope, there's no solution, and there's no point in caring about any of the characters or factions because they will all meet horrible fates.

And if you think you can change that? Tzeentch appreciates the contribution to his cause.

>implying Protomen-verse isn't just as grimderp

Everyone is terrible, everyone is a coward, the intended heroes are edgelords who hate humanity and decide that they have to murder aging parents and young children (or just watch them die) if they want anything to change, and the real villain is an old man and won't even get to enjoy his world domination long enough to realize maybe he should make sure his robots don't kill off all mankind and then each other once he bites it.

There's no reason to care about anyone because Good and Evil have both just flat-out given up.

>>45234309
So basically you looked into their shiny metal finish and saw yourself, and you didn't like it?

>>45233256
Letting guilt run your life is a silly decision that gets in the way of doing what's right more often than helps it. I don't expect forgiveness but I sure as shit don't let the lack of it control me. I have no right to stop them from forgiving me. Controlling them like that would just be perpetuating my sin.

>>45234207
Is that the Scarlet King thing from SCP?

>>45234408
Literally, the Tomb Spyder replaced most of my upper torso and my left leg, I vented entire tribes Into the Void,I was more monstrous for Weaker reasons than I have ever been Before or since.

>>45234309
They handled it far better than you. At least they didn't decide to slowly torture societies into anarchic hellholes.

>>45234497
Yes. Yes it is. And I will not go any further than this confirmation.

>>45234501
Honestly, just killing everyone was probably much more merciful than your usual shitbagging.

>>45231520
Yeah, you can get a bag of regenerating "senzu beans" in PMD, they're just called regeneration seeds there.

Yo JC I'm starting a new chain and want it to be elder horror themed, you know reality bending , insanity, space, inexplicable attacks, tentacles. What Jumps work best for this theme?

Two quick questions:

How survivable is Minecraft if taken early on, and if you buy the scrolls in Avatar that allow people to learn bending does that mean you can learn additional elements through that means?

>>45235075
Lovecraft.

9KB, 266x190px

>>45233256
Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Everything.

>>45234063
I tend to agree, and I fell into the "lose interest" camp long before Jumpchain.
40K is one of the few settings where I'd advocate just murdering everything. And I do mean everything. There is nothing worth saving. Better to make it all silent.

I hear cutting off all access to the warp will do that, what with its tie-in to souls, but I can't remember any ways to do that offhand (which is sad, because it seems like the sort of solution I'd go for, so I should probably look into it at some point).

But, geez, you wanna know the really stupid thing? Even though I am literally advocating for the total and complete murder of all life in the universe "for the greater good", I'm STILL not as edgy as 40K.
"You're not even torturing people!" 40K would say. They would kick my ass and laugh at me for not wanting to make it more painful and grimdark.

>>45235075
Well, there's Lovecraft, obviously. Also Bayonetta, if you align yourself with the angels or Science yourself to be more like them. Soul Eater can do some pretty freaky shit with Madness Auras, if you let it collect enough in one place.

>>45234501
Think this way Bancho, by spacing them you save resources.

>>45235079
Pretty OK outside some of the drawbacks, and
>if a person who is neither a Bender nor born of any of the four Nations reads the scroll, they will gain the power to Bend that element.
Doesn't work on benders.

>>45235079

>>if a person is neither a Bender nor born of any of the four Nations reads the scroll, they will gain the power to Bend that element.

This part seems to basically say that it doesn't work if you already have bending.

>>45235079
>Minecraft survivability
Easy unless you take drawbacks. Exponentially more difficult from that point onward.

>Avatar Scrolls
You cannot learn additional bending from them, no.

23. Discworld
Location: Ankh-Morpok
Background: Drop-In, Age: 23
Perks: Followed the Footnotes, Parody (-100), True Librarian (-300), Monk of History (-200)
Items: Octiron (-100), Micromail (-200), Sapient Pearwood (-300)
Drawbacks: Dragonriders (+200)

I took Dragonriders more to see dragons than for the points. That I got to fight them was just a bonus. The only problem being that fire is one of the library's natural predators and dragons are very often fire, so I couldn't enter L-space without putting the whole place at risk of burning down.It also turns out that Parody works wonders with my changeling talecrafting and any oracular powers.

This world was kind of a paradise for me, and I spent a lot of time reading. Following the footnotes made just diving into the books here a lot more fun. I started to enjoy sunrises again, as well. Watching light slowly filter through dense magical fields isn't something I think I'll ever forget. There are floating rocks and muggers and kindness and cruelty and magic and monsters that are in no way monstrous and cultures actually change and grow and and I love it.

>>45235075
SCP Foundation will probably help, Hellsing has Alucards embrace which will eventually let you do the whole river of death thing, Siren: Blood Curse has some perks, Goar Simulator lets you be a Goat, Red is making a Warhammer 40K Jump, Gravity Falls has a good background for that, and the Darkest Dungeons jump has the Bilious background and the Red Hook.

What's the name of the D&D jump?

>>45235834
There are ravenloft, darksun, and forgotten realms. Forgotten realms is likely what he was talking about though.

>>45235834
Forgotten Realms is the "core" one if you're talking about the one with "all the classes". Dark Sun, Order of the Stick, and Ravenloft are the others.

I'm not really familiar with Bayonetta. I checked a wiki but haven't really found what makes them that eldritch.

>>45235138
Well, wouldn't suddenly killing everyone cause even more chaos in the Warp and probably result in all of them facing even worse fates? So really, you are torturing everyone.

See? You can be as edgy as 40K.

You just have to BELIEVE in yourself.

This a version of the Log Horizon Jump

>>45236022
Is it. Is it DONE?

Or are we still waiting on completion?

>>45236084
Just looked through it, it's as blank as ever.

>>45236002
That's just Bayonetta through. Not the Angels from there. Those are pretty weird.

>>45235977

>>45236022
Why post it if it's as unfinished as the last time?

>>45236022
Is anyone allowed to work on it yet?

Anyone remember Bakugan? That TCG/Marble game thing from 10 years ago? I seem to remember the show had an interesting premise before devolving into out-and-out stupid.

I wonder how well it would work as a jump?

>>45236279
We've got that spinning top game so why not

>>45236114
I struggled to find the unfinished version. Maybe someone will carry the torch?

>>45236084
kinda empty

>>45236311
Nobody can carry any torch unless the jumpmaker says so.

>>45236252
Between this, what happened to Tactics, and BBS, I'm pretty sad mang, pretty sad. The same anon that did this was the one who did Dynasty Warriors too and that never made it into a jump either.

Forced my hand to do Warriors Orochi

>>45236343
>>45236323
Could someone won contact LogH anon and see if we can finish it?

>>45236343
What's BBS? I think we have a Tactics Advance at least, for what that's worth

>>45236419
It's a sort of text board.

>>45236418
...no?

I'm not sure if you understand how this anon thing works. He didn't exactly have to hand out his contact info to post on this site

>>45236114
>Bayonetta Angels
While we're on the subject what does turning yourself into an angel actually entail? Do you risk mindfucking yourself? Does it give a major power boost? Can you turn people into Sages?

>>45236418
We don't know where he went to be honest, and he was mostly active on SB, only frequenting here once in a while.

>>45236419
Birth By Sleep.
My gripe is that Tactics and Tactics Advance are two completely points in the chronology of Ivalice. The "feel" of Tactics versus Tactics Advance is completely different from one another, and unlike Dynasty Warriors, it's not something I can capture even if I went for a tangent setting like Vagrant Story.

>>45236437
So if anon is dead the jump can never be completed?

>>45236489
Pretty much.

Don't even bother complaining. The consensus isn't going to change and you'll just start a shitsorm.

>>45236518
It's stupid through. Since this jump has been dead for months.

I mean, it was one anon on SB who clearly gave up long ago.

Why the fuck should that stop anyone here from making a complete Log Horizon jump?

>>45236518
Certain things we just have to accept. Plenty of other similar jumps anyway.

>>45236586
Did you even read the spoiler?

>>45236437
Actually Loganon is on SB, have poked him there in hopes of getting a response of what's going on.

>>45236489
The only exception is if the jump was made on some other site (read: Spacebattles) and uploaded to the drive without being posted and critiqued in thread. In which case, it's totally cool to kick them and someone else to do their own.

I didn't pay much attention to the jump when it was being worked on beyond a vague awareness of some sorta controversy about Level 1 or whatever and I'm not interested in Log Horizon anyway, so I can't say for sure if it counts or not.

>>45236586
It's a shit IP, who cares.

>>45236623
It was posted here by the jump maker, with feedback from thread. So technically we can't dump due to that rule.

>>45236623
Well Log Horizon anon *did* come to post his jump here for critique in the early days when he first started working through it, it's just that his "home base" so to speak is SB.

I wouldn't invalidate his work right away, and lots of people have very long production schedules due to real life stuff and other obligations. Just that progress reports would generally be nice.

I wasn't too interested in Log Horizon at first, was more interested that we were getting a new jumpmaker to the mix, but the setting isn't too bad, I don't mind it. I can see potential.

>>45236418
Seed-Anon here.
Yo, if you can demonstrably make progress on it. I'm entirely okay with you doing what you want with. I hit a road block with the whole class system I couldn't balance them.

>>45236662
>>45236688

Ah. I'd say it was a shame, but truth be told?

From what little I heard of Log Horizon it sounded like SAO, and the only thing I like about SAO is the abridged series so-

>>45236714
-oh. Nevermind, then.

Welp. Who's gonna be the (un)lucky chap to take a crack at it?

>>45236714
Oh, and-thanks for taking the time to come tell us, dude. S' not often that happens, these days.

>>45236734
Log Horizon has some similarities to SAO but it's more that they are both of the same genre. In SAO people are trapped in virtual reality, in Log Horizon people got transported to a fantasy world that directly relates to the mmo they were playing. They aren't in a game, they are actually in a fantasy world, albeit one with game mechanics. Also in SAO people die when they are killed, in Log Horizon people respawn back in town when they are killed. So they are actually very different takes on people trapped in a game.

>>45236714
Alright. I think any work done outside of the original creator should be labeled as "unofficial" until approval is given.

>>45236279
>>45236303
Somebody call Wakfu.

>>45235138
The deadlight is literally a warp alignment core that if unbroken seals off the warp forever when you j-j-jam it in. Go reread the final part of LoT a bit more closely, Blue.

Now in 40k jump there is a drawback to make actions in LoT canon for the 40k jump. Thereyougo.

>>45236489
No. The rule is, and always has been, that you can snag an incomplete Jump if the person who was working on it gives it up, or is actually gone (as in, not just not updating, but actually gone) for a long period.

Just don't do a crappy job.

>>45236964
Hardly relevant since we go approvals this time.

You know what I hate? Sand. It gets EVERYWHERE! You taste it in your mouth, gets in your shoes, inside your underwear, and places where you wouldn't expect to find sand. Yet, it's there. That's the first thing I wake up to is a yellow rodent staring down at me, under the baking sun, and the sand. I somehow woke up, in the Pokemon universe and I happen to be in the worse place on PokeEarth, Orre. At least I had a motorcycle, a laptop, and a handgun with hundreds of rounds of ammo. The downside I found out, I'm an internationally wanted criminal.

The only good thing about Orre, there's no police. I'm just a criminal among criminals, for most part. I certainly did not have a great time, but I coped.

I did have to kill a few people, for they were trying steal my Pikachu. Pokemon are scarce in Orre, and one as cute and valuable as a Pilachu even more so. Thanks to my new found reflexes and impossible aiming skills, it was easy to kill. It was the guilt after that tore me up, and the anxiety of reprisal attacks.

Eventually I got really jaded about it, and stopped worrying so much. I guess it was the environment, when around criminals you learn to act and be one. It also didn't help that bounty hunters would show up and try to gun you down. My decade here was the worse time in my life, and I was running low on bullets too.

Whoever does it needs to get rid of that mandatory nerf shit. That forced mechanic was just retarded.

>>45236940
Well if it's as he says, why don't we just revert it to a "no claim" status for now, and whoever is interested can put forth drafts for open review from the author?

Cause I dunno, it's not a very popular IP to begin with, so it feels like only the people that are actually interested would consider making it.

>>45236981
On one hand I know, on the other hand the more people who understand you can't call dibs on a setting forever without making something out of it, the more Undertales we'll have.

My previous chain I had 117 companions.
I always run at least 15 active companions, though the "true" active companion amount has shifted a bit since I have a couple several companions in one slot thing.

With everyone being part summoner or main summoner, we normally have 2 - 3 familiars/summons active at all times. Currently I think I have about...30 companions on this chain? But I haven't broken 100 jumps yet either, so yeah.

>>45237557
Can we not? There's no sense in rushing a jump out for quality. If you want to feel secure, make a good WIP skeleton, release it and see if thread agrees to lock it down. Making people feel like they need to pump out jumps isn't productive at all.

Still you should plan for bumbling detectives.

>>45235079
Well, if you can find any drawbacks that limit your powers so you're just a person again cut off from all their powers but still have access to the warehouse, I guess you could use the scrolls to gain multiple disciplines.

I'm not sure if there are any jumps with drawbacks like that however.

>>45237497
With the chain i am running now, i have:
Gaia from the special reward of EVO,
Jibril from NGNL,
Naruto & Sasuke from MC-KUN drawback of Naruto,
Master Chief and Cortana from Halo,
Harry Potter from the eponymous jump,
and my Sister companion from Raildex.
And as for my 5 pods, i generally keep 5 servants i managed to convince to follow me from Fate/Jump (Arturia, imported from King Arthur, Medea, got her before Kuzuki, Archer, convinced him that following us would put him out of Alaya's reach, Cu Chulain, cause he loves battles and i forgot to save Bazett and Medusa as serviced rendered for curing Sakura/burning Zouken)

>>45237798
No you should plan for talented pre-teens.

>>45237844

Plus that's only if they're working for law enforcement when it tends to be the other way round.

>>45237815

>>45237497
My current roster is:
Morrigan Aensland from Darkstalkers
Esdeath from Akame ga Kill
Abridged Alucard from Hellsing Abridged
Gaea from EVO
The Deer Lord from Nichijou
GLaDos from Portal
Yukari Yakumo from Touhou
the Sapient Pearwood Staff from Discworld (Combined with pretty much every staff/magic-channel I got)
the Mansion from Carnival Phantasm's Drawback
Elodie from LLTQ
the Choir of Righteous Fury
the Small Army from Skullgirls
Jibril from NGNL
Taylor Hebert from Worm
Ranma from... Ranma 1/2
and White Mage from 8-Bit Theatre

Oh, and the Necron Tomb Spyder, I guess. Don't have it out much through. The others are all active at the same time, through the power of shared companion slot rewards.

Nah, talented pre-teens are their own justice in pokemon. Especially in the manga where Red and co become essentially the S-class heroes of the world, called in where all others would fail. They don't really work for anyone, they just kinda show up and wreck face because goddammit team rocket you're not allowed to steal God and God you're not allowed to destroy the world because team rocket woke you up from your nap.

Just be wary of protagonists in general, especially if you take enough drawbacks to be a subplot on their journey.

Jumpchain is good for producing neatish scenes - if you daydream about it, it's just a matter of typing it out.

Don't worry about quality or length.

>>45238562

Technically being a protagonist doesn't actually help you avoid protagonists. Sure it helps, but it basically only changes things from 'go home don't even bother' to 'generic crossover event'.

> Shuggy (Shoggoth) [Lovecraft/Pet Monster]
> Carmelita Fox [Sly Cooper/Inspector Fox]

... as well as a bunch of unnamed recruits from Starcraft that were free.
I might have a squad of Klokateers from Metalocalypse, too, I can't remember, and it seems as if I've lost that particular jump in my doc.
Sometimes my jumps get eaten.
I still can't say for sure if that's everyone, but I think we're scraping the bottom of the overall headcount.

I'm actually slightly bummed the way Big Band's story ended, if only because I was originally hoping there to be more to it from a story perspective. Like, I was hoping there'd be a big turnaround or final moment, because back then I didn't know I was going to ram so deep into this TRAGIC MONSTER angle and figured there'd be some light at the end. And, HAHAH!, that sure didn't happen.
But I couldn't stand the thought of him just being stuck in companion limbo forever, because I actually really like him as a character? So the current story version is that I finally sent him home, and he's back in Skullgirls, fightan' the Skullgirl with even more jazzed up cybernetics.

I've thought about a retcon to say I companion'd someone else, but at this point I'm only willing to take people I don't mind suffering.
Who's enough of an asshole for that? Eliza...?

Okay, this will take a minute. Let's see:

My Pokemon Team (Dion, Tork, Gwyn, Dirge, Zach and Talin);
Ailyth from Valkyrie Profile;
Jibril from NGNL;
Jihl and Gilgamesh from FF13-2;
Breach from Generator Rex;
At least a dozen people from Ragnarok Online (that's what happens when you try doing ALL the scenarios);
Small Army from Skullgirls;
Alice, my AI adopted daughter from Gundam UC (it's complicated);
Adele, Exodus, Shemhazai and Ultima from FF12-RW;
Firemane from FF12;
Venom and The Boss from Metal Gear;
Giffany from Gravity Falls;
Morrigan from Darkstalkers;
Elodie from LLTQ;
The Deer Lord from Nichijou;
Yuugi and Suika from Touhou;
Segna, a Gria from FFTA;

There's still probaly more, but a lot of my chain is still just the builds with very little story beyond a couple jumps.

And them there's the people who I got with Chooser of the Slain (the "good" version of Dark Binding), which include the likes of:
Sacchin and SHIKI from Tsukihime;
The Intoners from Drakengard;
Kamina from Gurren Lagann;
Pitou from HxH;
Kimblee and Greed from Fullmetal Achemist;
Kaguya from Naruto;

... and many, many more.

Wow, didn't realize I had so many. Now how the hell am I going to choose who gets imported when...

>>45238834
If anything in Pokemon being a protagonist guarantees you'll be interacting with other protagonists. You'll either have Red, Blue or Crystal show up at some point when shit gets real or Ash come along and you'll play sidekick for awhile or have your rival/group of friends/co-protagonist following a parallel journey - depending on which canon amalgamation you subscribe to.

Where is that from?

>>45239378
Valkyrie Profile. You can't be a Valkyrie without a way to ferry souls to Oin, after all.

>>45239378
Valkyrie Profile.
>Chooser of the Slain (Free and Restricted to Valkyrie) - The Battle Maiden's main duty revolves around collecting the souls of the chosen dead, training them further as warriors, and sending them to Valhalla to serve as Odin's soldiers when the time is ready. To properly perform this mission, you're now capable of absorbing the souls of the willing dead, convinced through honest methods or foul, into your body. There they reside, fully aware of themselves and separate from your own, their only method of interaction being to speak with you should you will it. Theoretically, there's no upper limit to how many souls you may hold at a time in this fashion. The second aspect of this ability is that of Materialization, the use of your own divine energy to give the souls a temporary physical body and summon them into the world as Einherjar. To all outside observers, your Einherjar resemble living humans, though as masses of Materialization Energy given human form, they lack many of the physical flaws a normal humans would have, such as the need to eat, the need for rest, and a lack of vital organs. They can't even die unless they're attacked by something that can destroy a soul, as a slain Einherjar will return to you automatically and can be summoned again, though it will take time for them and your Materialization Energy to recover.

Cont.

>>45239466
>While at first their strength is equal to what it was in life, Einherjar can continue training with you and steadily grow in power and skill, even learning new abilities if you can teach them, with the only true limit being the strength of their souls. However, with their existence bound to you, Einherjar can typically only wander an area the size of a large modern city around you before automatically returning to you without suffering any harm. The final restriction is that summoned Einherjars Materialization Energy is derived from your own internal stores. Because of this, there's somewhat of a limit to how many you can use at once. To have your Einherjar fight at full power, you can only summon four of them at once, and although this isn't a hard limit, the more you summon beyond this number, the weaker they become, even if only in endurance. An army of Einherjar summoned at once would be a field of paper tigers. One thing to note is that while you're here, you're expected to send Einherjar that are ready to Valhalla and that things could end poorly if Odin thinks you're slacking off, though who, when, and how many is entirely up to you. Post-jump, you may simply release your Einherjar to pass on to the afterlife if you ever wish to free them.

>>45239090
>And them there's the people who I got with Chooser of the Slain (the "good" version of Dark Binding), which include the likes of:
Man, I always let people go with Chooser of the Slain. I just use it to ferry people out of bad situations; I don't hold onto them.

Well you don't have to worry about protagonists bud.

>>45239130
>>45239722

I recommend at least going with "The world is a big place and their series(or the equivalent) is taking place somewhere else", mostly do to the fact that pokemon seems to be a setting where you can't go half a mile without running into a group about to start the apocalypse.

Sure you might want to be the protagonist, but not being able to go 'someone else is working on that not my problem' seems like it would get boring after a while.

>>45239845
Is Burgundy an actual character? I picked a second-rate color hoping that it wasn't one of those 40.

Technically that jump never says when in the timeline your journey occurs. Plus they don't really do much besides fight crime and do generic trainer stuff anyway most of the time. At which point you might as well complain that the police exist.

Plus if your assuming the game versions of them are around instead you don't have to deal with Ash being some time distortion super mary sue.

>>45240098

>time distortion super mary sue
Well, with the most recent episode Ash produces enough Infinite Energy to mega-evolve greninja without a megastone.

There's some speculation that it may be tied to the time he got turned to stone by Mew/Mewtwo who have been described as having tons of infinite energy themselves (Mewtwo doesn't need a megastone to evolve in the anime, he's just that good). Ash may literally be a walking megastone after being turned to stone by infinite energy. Combined with also maybe being something of a chosen of Ho-Oh, he may just be fucking immortal.

>>45240205

That would actually be cool, but c'mon. You know the writer's aren't that good and it'll just turn out to be because of the power of friendship or some bullshit.

If your actually trying to make a team of legendaries or something, not every game has them involved as a required part of the plotline.

Plus despite their importance the legendries seem ridiculously easy to use to cause problems.

If not the games don't all take place at the same time, and the jumps world is bigger than just what the game shows.

>>45240535
New plots involve new legendaries more often than not. So a new game. Which we don't have and can't roll. Which are also going to come with new protags that'll solve the new plots.

>>45240281
Latest episode showed that Ash's Greninja fusion is at least in part related to the energy that powers mega evolutions but it may or may not be a true mega evolution and something Ash-specific since Alain's bracelet that detects if a mega evolution has happened didn't go off.

So Ash-Greninja might be a part-way phase to a Mega or Ash is combining his accumulated/innate powers from so many legendary interactions to get something unique.

Other example characters have included he terminally ill,An eldritch Tainted wizard and someone with Solomon Grundy syndrome,that is not a good Way to benchmark. Notice how they are in the section of the book shared by the players and the GM? They aren't necessarily supposed to be PCs.

>>45240637
Apparently the future of Pokemon is somehow tied to 'flowers' from an interview a couple days ago. With some of the Zygrade-cell powered cannon used to make a Yggdrasil, which combined with some promotional stuff showing a massive tree covered in flowers that are the same exact colour as that used in the currently unattainable alt-form of floette with a special signature move...

Z sounds like it might be a bit crazy. Potentially including fusion, whatever this Yggdrasil plot is, etc.

>>45240782
Sounds like it's going to shit really. Too much Digimon going on.

>>45240598

As far as I can tell the only villain groups that were actually fully defeated are Hoenns eco-terrorists, and maybe the Black and White ones.

Besides if you absolutely need to be involved in one (possibly a few but unless I'm misremembering several games take place at the same time) of the canon plotlines you can just get to it before the main character does.

>>45240749

I'm cautiously optimistic. The basic formula of Pokemon has served well for twenty years now but I wouldn't mind some more complexity and a more involved plot line than 'you wander into town and beat everyone to a pulp for no reason other than because they pay you to and they're in your way.'

Potential explanation/un-fuckery of the multiverse plot?

>>45240827
Team Rocket is decapitated and essentially crippled, and they have no grand plots beyond that. They're just another petty gang. Same for Team Flare.

Team... I dunno, 4? They're destroyed too without their leader, who is currently stuck in Hell.

Team Plasma I think is also decapitated. Split into several small groups, some doing petty crime and some reforming into basically animal welfare advocates.

None of these groups are going to do anything significant ever again.

If I got to one of the plots before the protag, since they're there at every major event, I'd stop the plot before anything happened. Better for the world, more boring though, and I get nothing out of it.

>>45240749

Thanks for the explanation Bancho

I hate the extra mechanic baggage. It's too crowded and idiotic and gives them a huge burden to account for every gen.

I also don't want the plot to become too anime over just an adventure to become champ. I know you keep saving the world, but the adventure plot never went away.

>>45240983

why would they be called gun spirits when spears and swords and shit came first?

>>45240287
Questions.
Is the Terms a mandatory drawback?

To Good Friends only mentions "a couple" of your Companions before saying it doubles. How many does the initial purchase give?

The Free Combination Attack allows you to fuse anything as long as it's between you and a partner who also has this? Or are there limitations to it? It says "some techniques aren't compatible" but I have no clue which ones are and aren't.

Same thing with the free Gate Key, does it get consumed, or is the only reason why anyone would buy more than one because they might lose it?

>>45241039
Because they were really only discovered after The bombs fell

Jumpers!

Who is the best party member, and why is it Robo?

>>45240924
Who knows. Arceus kinda does as he pleases, twinning the PMD universe to save the Future Trio's timeline because they were badasses and so that the past universe also continues existing. Humans getting pulled from other universes every once and awhile into the PMD universe for various reasons. Celebis may or may not have the ability to cross over universes like they can time.

Arceus does as he pleases and answers to no one.

>>45241102
MAIDn or the oracle robot cassandra from SCP.

>>45240943
I pretty much put up all of my ongoing WIPs + jumps a couple threads ago. I don't normally update my own drive until something either hits IC 0.01 or C .99 or F status, so that's pretty much it.

30 jumps and 4 scratchpads. If you look back in the thread you'll find the jumps somewhere in there. Apologies, but I'm not keen on releasing my drive address.

>>45241051
The drawback isn't mandatory, but if you don't take it, you can't take any other Drawbacks. I thought it was a fair compromise.

The first purchase of To Good Friends lets you import two Companions, and each purchase thereafter doubles it.

In the game itself, each character winds up with seven Techs, which means 49 possible combinations per pair. However, only three of those are actually combinations. It's not that limiting in-Jump, but what it basically means is that not every single spell you can cast (for example) will combine with a spell your ally can cast. Just think of what makes sense together, and use your best judgment.

The only reason to buy another Gate Key is if you're afraid you'll lose it, break it, or want to take it apart for some reason. I just wanted to include the option in case you need a spare.

>>45240940

>Team Rocket is decapitated and essentially crippled, and they have no grand plots beyond that. They're just another petty gang. Same for Team Flare.

I think Heart Gold and Soul Silver implied Giovani was planning to return. As for Team Flare this is a group that used extortion to plan genocide and their still active.

>Team... I dunno, 4? They're destroyed too without their leader, who is currently stuck in Hell.

Only in Platinum in the other ones he basically just leaves swearing he will have revenge.

>
Team Plasma I think is also decapitated. Split into several small groups, some doing petty crime and some reforming into basically animal welfare advocates.

Can't really argue with this one but Plasma was stupid anyway.

Be wary of one thing following a 1/3/6 structure since that's the foundation of your main perks. You don't have a 50 CP float anywhere besides your companion section, your lowest item denominator is a 100 with a discount to free rather than half, so some builds might run into issues with CP leftover.

Overall it looks fine. It's a bit sparse, but...that's just me. But for what it is it's compact, gets to the point pretty well I'd say. The Druid tree is a bit...vague, but if you think it fits it's up to you. I'm not exactly too sure how to feel about the Drop In Cap, there's synergy with the drop in 600...and then again I don't know how much overlap you envision the two of them to have.

>>45241174
What does IC 0.01, C .99 or F status mean anyway? Is it a technical engineer thing or just a system you came up with to sort your work?

>>45241274
No 1246 format? Sad.

>>45241283
You could always join up with them and try and defeat the protagonist for a change of pace. I mean, in the anime and manga Team Rocket gets set back routinely but they tend to regroup and do stuff like try to piss off god enough to make him call the lesser gods to destroy the earth so they have a chance at catching them and revolting against god (because despite managing to steal Arceus' plates and him being really groggy the time they trussed him up they couldn't catch him or make him do anything except be dragged along the ground while he just kinda took it growing increasingly pissed and eventually decided that mankind just needed to die for a bit - only to be stopped by an all-star team of protagonists and Elite Four champs). Or they just try to re-catch Mewtwo again, because that still hasn't stopped being a good idea clearly and didn't nearly result in him conquering the world but had a change of heart when Ash died for man's sins and was resurrected.

>>45241274
Bastet drawback still seems to be 600cp, despite not seeming as bad as the 300cp drawbacks. Is there any reason it's worth so much more then Known Warlock, given that seems to not only have the same downside of people hunting you, but you don't get the benefit of a big power buff?

>>45241536
I'm not evil, anon.

>>45241436
IC, Incomplete Status. Percentages are generally based off of states. I don't hit 0.1% until I get a full skeleton of everything that I intend to be present. I don't hit 0.5% until everything besides scenarios are up. So a lot of people look at those IC 0.01% that are like 50 pages long and they go "oh my god it's going to be too big" when in actuality the jump probably won't break 150 - 200 pages at most.

C is technical completion, always 0.99. Leaves it ready for Final Format, but generally C jumps are missing one thing or another. Dark Cloud was missing the Arland formatting as well as a scenario. ARIA was missing the revamped scenario as well as Arland formatting and a perk chain. FFX was missing ...8 perk chains, a synthesis item, 2 scenarios, 2 inner perk trees, and the Arcana system.

So typically, the F format is a bit of a leap off of the C format. I ended up doubling ARIA and FFX in size mainly because I wasn't satisfied with what I had added. (wasn't sufficiently representative of the setting) 13 (all three jumps) and 12 suffer from similar problems. I absolutely abhor the way I handled 13-3 and 12, both of those not only need to be brought to Arland standards, they also need better content descriptions.

Generally as I move a jump from C to F, I'll bring another one from IC to C. It's like a slow chain. C jumps are always smaller than F jumps, and some jumps I'll always leave in C status (like Siren and Gravity Rush) so the system works well for me.

It's a system I use so I can quickly organize and prioritize what I want to tackle in my free time. I guess you could say being an engineer, the whole organization thing comes naturally.

>>45240287
Ooh, the materials section is very tempting for me. I love weird material science. And with them all being self-renewing supplies I don't even have to cheat with Artificial Alloys. Sweet.

Needs 50cp items to fill in discounted 300cp gaps.
Really not a fan of perk bloat (2+ perks per tier per background), but whatever, it's your jump.
All of the 800cp perks should probably be further explained.

>>45241539
Bastet makes you into a murderous beast for at least a quarter of the entire Jump, and you can't control yourself.

In the other you've just got a high bounty. Meh.

>>45241684
No such thing as perk 'bloat'.

>>45241433
>50 CP float
Damn. I've gone this entire time without even noticing that.

>The Druid tree is a bit...vague
I can see that, but I honestly don't know how to make it much clearer to people who haven't seen the show. I'll try and see what I can do.

>Drop In
I kind of struggled with thinking of enough appropriate perks for Drop-In. Over all I really wish I could have done a better job with the tree, but this is what I've decided to settle for. If something hits me and I can think of better perks, or if someone who knows the series can suggest something, I'd happily change some of it.

>>45241433
>It's a bit sparse
Ah, sorry. It's my first attempt at making a jump, and I really don't know how to put much more meat on it's bones.

Thanks for the feedback.

>>45241684
A murderous beast that's also getting a big buff to strength, speed and especially toughness. That kind of equals out the danger of not being in control. It basically feels about as dangerous as the 300s at best, definitely not 600 material. If you didn't get those massive physical buffs? It might be closer to 600, but with them it removes a lot of the danger.

>>45241684
>just a high bounty
Anon, it basically makes you out to be the most wanted criminal in the country. You have the king's personal hatred and focus and Uther's not exactly known for being weak on following up his grudges.

Oh man, I've already rewritten two of then like three times. Did you read the notes?

>>45241614
I hoped people would be interested in those. I always thought it was interesting questing for the materials to make your ultimate weapons instead of just finding them somewhere.

>>45241707
>I can see that, but I honestly don't know how to make it much clearer to people who haven't seen the show. I'll try and see what I can do.

Well to begin with, if there are limits as to what can be done, or "schools" that are present, clarifying them - in their own section if need be - might be a good start. You've listed examples of magic, but having not seen the source, I don't know if that's the higher end, or middle end, or lower end.

Now granted, I'm looking at this as a "first look", so I haven't done full research on it, but generally don't assume your audience will do full research on a setting just because a jump is available. If you can put in some clarifications in terms of boundaries as far as the setting presents them it might help. Maybe some more concrete wording?

Somebody who knows the setting better would probably be able to help you. CCDT perhaps? I dunno.

As for classifications. I think the way Wild Card handled elements and such in his Chrono Trigger jump isn't a bad way to go about it. You only need short blurbs to give people a better grasp of what each "aspect" of magic might do. It's a bit of an uphill battle, because there's just so much magic in jumpchain that people don't know what to expect and often they draw comparisons to magic systems they already know.

Even if you just make comparisons like "this is close to Harry Potter magic" people will still get a better grasp of what they're working with.


>Ah, sorry. It's my first attempt at making a jump, and I really don't know how to put much more meat on it's bones.

Sparse isn't a problem. We all have to start somewhere, and sparse means you have room to add meat if you feel that it's worth it. The jump works mechanically (save for that CP balancing thing) so you're off to a pretty good start.

If anything, try making a couple builds, one based off of each background, just to get a feel of CP spread.

>>45241729
I'm not the jumpmaker so I can't say this with certainty, but I feel like the 'danger' of the drawback is murdering innocent people en masse, possibly killing your companions if they try to stop you from going on a rampage, and if you're powerful enough, just plain destroying the world.

Of course, it's also not specified how big the boost from being a Bastet is, so the real danger might be that you'll draw enough heat that people who you could take on individually with the transformation will just team up and kick your shit in.

>>45241943
Far as I remember, Merlin never really does that sort of thing with magic. It just 'is' for the main character and we only get random snippets from other characters, usually totally unrelated to each other, at best being rituals of some sort.

>>45240287
*Tilts head*

Discounts and freebies for Genius seem to be slightly mixed up...?

>>45241979
>Innocents
Pretty dependent on morality there, something only a few jumpers seem to have. In any case, it's a negative based on a specific type of jumper, a poor way to measure.
>Killing companions
Temporary, you're not perma killing them and they'll be back in a day-week.
>Destroying the world
Again, that's solely dependent on the jumper and shouldn't be used as a measurement.

The boost is described as 'extreme'. In setting, pretty much the majority of people are normal and even a Griffon was pretty much untouchable to them, which this should be at least equal to. Barring the few magic users, and even then there's not many and not many strong ones, there's not much that will be able to kill you.

>>45241482
Honestly I didn't even think of that. Mostly because it started off as just 1/3/6. But I suppose none of the 300 CP perks are really that broken or anything, so that spread would probably be okay.

>>45241729
You're nowhere near unkillable, the Bastet in the series was fatally wounded by normal humans while transformed. I've set it up so you can't dodge the transformation and will be forced to rampage.
I really think it's worth 600, but since you athink it's not I'm adding a clause that says you lose all extra abilities while transformed and you just have your bodymod body's physical abilities + those added by the curse.
At that point the series is filled with things that can kill you. Especially while you're a mindless beast.

>>45242026
...Yep, my bad. 100 is free, 200 is discounted. I'll add that to the list of things to fix in 1.1

>>45242095
Well if that's what you decide. Still don't think it's really worth 300cp more then the 300cp drawbacks, but I've said my piece.

>>45241891
Yeah, the optional sidequests at the end of the game to get your ultimate equipment always resonated well with me. It felt like a natural progression of what you had been doing in the rest of the game, not just a bunch of tasks unrelated to the plot that popped up out of nowhere like you often get in JRPGs.

>>45241539
>>45241684
Okay, crunching the numbers, because I was curious, using data from
http://aa.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/aa_rstablew.pl
time in the uncontrollable Bastet form is, on average, 6h20m a day.

crunch.py
a = """all sunrises"""
b = a.split()
c = [int(i)%100 + 60 * int(i)//100 for i in b]
d = sum(c)/len(c)
print( d//60, d%60)
"6h20"

So that's a little over the quarter of the entire jump, and it's not like it counts as rest- more like the opposite.

>>45242080
You know, I want to say that most people aren't amoral monsters in their imaginary mary sue adventures, but that's pretty delusional.

I don't really have any other arguments, so, I guess you're right?

>>45241943
>"this is close to Harry Potter magic"

Comparing content in jumps to stuff from other settings isn't great generally and doing it for systems of magic it's always going to be pretty reductive as they tend to be quite broad. One or two examples would be nice but most magical options in jumps don't give too many examples of what you can do with them, even Harry Potter doesn't really.

>>45242080
Well, my two cents on it is that "For an evil jumper, it's free CP." but a jumper with morality wouldn't consider it to begin with. So it's like an all or nothing situation because of how extreme this drawback is.

You could sort of take a look at it this way: is it worse to sum up enough drawbacks to make 600 CP...or is this lone drawback worse than that?

>>45242095
I dunno if this helps, but clarifying what "High-Priestesses of the Old Religion" level is might help give people a bit of a basis. Granted that it's the very first line in the notes, it could use a bit of clarification.

>>45242192
Eh, I used Harry Potter as an example since that was the first magic system that came to mind for me. I was mostly iffy over the explanation for magic in the notes, which gives examples of what can be done, but not really too clear on the scale of what it is.

Reading off the title I would have presumed either way that this is closer to Harry Potter magic than Bleach magic, but it does help me hone in on what I should be seeing.

...Which reminds me of how whack Bleach is getting.

>>45241943
The magic system is vague and varied. I'd say the closest other system I know of would probably be...Buffy, I guess. Which honestly isn't a much clearer system, but I can try drawing a comparison in the jump.

I'll try looking at Chrono Trigger, too.

>try making a couple builds
Something else I really should have thought of.

>>45240287
You know, it occurs to me that the But The Future Refused to Change drawback is actually Queen Zeal shooting herself in the foot. She only exists due to time travel, without Crono and the party going back to 65,000,000 BC and fighting Azla humanity would be extinct and Zeal would never have been founded. It's still a drawback, since Lavos's presence isn't a result of time travel, but it almost makes me want to take that just so I can laugh as she realizes that she's erased herself from existence.

>>45242345
The timeline is a little complex, but I think in the original timeline Ayla still beat Azala without help from the party, Lavos slammed into the Reptite fortress and cratered it, and Zeal still existed.

But it is definitely shooting herself in the foot, because in the original timeline the Black Omen never existed, so odds are things went a lot worse for her.

>>45237497
My companion list is pretty stable, since if someone's feeling done with this ship, I give them a couple jumps off to do whatever

In chronological order of friendship acquired

Catie (Quilava),my starter of course. Mildly cynical, extremely sarcastic. Fitting since she's basically stuck as a teenager. Mildly acrachnophobic
Laria (Lapras), pretty chill, preferring to go with the flow rather than swimming against the tide. Allergic to peanuts.
Heidi (French), outgoing, bubbly. Extreme optimist despite being unlucky. Loves wine a bit too much.
Rowena (Braviary), hyper patriot, and a genuinely nice person.Think female Captain America. Thinks puns are the highest form of wit.
Felicia (Talonflame), hotheaded, quick to anger. Looks before she leaps. Likes wearing pretty dresses.
Darlene (Sawsbuck), motherly. Plays peacemaker more often then anything else. Hard to inflame, but nasty temper when she angered. Likes embarrassing her "children"
Dixie (Durant), likes being the center of attention, for both good and bad reasons. Can be playful. Prefers Skittles over M&Ms.
USS North Carolina [Caroline] (Battleship), Brash, very showy. Also mildly racist. Another case of looking before leaping. Listens to folk music exclusively.
USS Washington [Wash, Washington] (Battleship) extremely shy, but is very much a team player. Tends to be overly critical of herself. Really into anime.
Her Majesty, Elsa the First, Queen of... (Human-ish? Maybe?), impish. Doesn't like keeping secrets. Is fond of overly long titles. Draws dicks on people's faces when they sleep.
Isuzu (Human. Probably.) Quiet, introverted. Very helpful when others need it, particularly emotionally. Doesn't care much for violence. Mildly OCD

>>45242544
Did Ayla beat Azla? I always got the impression that the timeline Crono and his friends came from relied on time travel to exist. Hence why if you finished the game early by fighting Lavos you got different timelines, because Crono never went and did the things that resulted in his own timeline. And then you could make further changes once you'd stabilized it, but initially at least it was a time loop scenario. Maybe I'm misinterpreting. You're right that she's still screwed either way, though. It would be funny to see the look on her face as she realizes that she retconned herself into either not existing or having no power.

Reminder that no matter what you do, Chrono Cross happens and all the protags die.

>>45242698
That's not true. Just whack Balthasar upside the head so he'll never cause the Time Crash. El Nido will never be created, Porre will never make a magitech empire based on Elements, and Guardia will never be destroyed.

>>45242645
From my understanding, the original timeline is the Cataclysm timeline - Lavos falls to earth, humanity evolves into the Enlightened Ones, they poke Lavos until it wakes up and kills them all (and sends the Gurus and Magus through time), then Lavos goes back to sleep until 1999, when it wakes up and causes the Cataclysm. The Chrono Trigger timeline then takes place from there.

Meanwhile, there are two Reptite timelines - the Dinopolis Timeline is an alternate universe where Lavos never lands and the Reptites annihilate humanity, evolve into the Dragonians, and get sucked into a dimensional rift, and the Dino Age Timeline is the one where you take Ayla to go fight Lavos or hang out at the end of time, she isn't there to fight Azala, and Crono and Marle end up as Reptites.

NOT IF I UPGRADE GATO AND TORCH PORRE.

... I don't actually care.
I liked Chrono Cross, though the way they kill off the protags WAS needlessly petty.

I probably will upgrade the hell out of Gato, though, just for giggles.
Imagine Lynx's face when Gato suddenly goes full Spiral Gundam.

>>45242829
You're right, I'm misremembering. Dino Age only happens if you beat Lavos after recruiting Ayla but before fighting Azla. Okay, so humanity's survival isn't dependent on time travel. Well, that makes the scenario slightly less amusing, but still funny enough.

>>45241609
>So a lot of people look at those IC 0.01% that are like 50 pages long and they go "oh my god it's going to be too big" when in actuality the jump probably won't break 150 - 200 pages at most.

Though that was the anime which was terrible. I am not sure how powerful the average vampire is in that world but he seems to be a vampiric demi-god.

>>45243219
Naw I just hold myself to different standards. I'll admit that I do tend to commit that "perk bloat" problem that the anon up there had mentioned. In my case I think some people might consider it "scenario bloat" and "item bloat" and "option bloat" in general though haha.

>>45243566
I don't consider it a problem, personally.

>>45242698
thats ok I loved chrono cross. do we have a jump of it yet?

>>45243678
No, but maybe Wild has plans on making it? There's a couple of people in the community who are very well versed in the lore.

>>45243585
My ideal is to achieve a good balance between fluff lore, actual perk text, while making each piece actually relevant. In cases like 13-3 I grossly misfired. That thing is probably getting F formatted next. Either that or 12, where the structure REALLY makes me want to stab myself.

>>45242829

It's mentioned in the lore they have a lock on them.

>>45243886

Normally Lavos isn't but

> Not content with this pitiful world, he began to harvest the energy of all those worlds you have visited and the DNA and vitality of every living – creature.

Implies that if you take it exteremly early a significant portion of Lavos new DNA would be pokemon DNA.

Which is what made me curious.

>>45243926

You mean the thing you won't have if you take that drawback?

>>45244125
I don't remember that. I recall him catching a doughnut once, is that what you're thinking of?

>>45241207
Why do people have to take the Plot Bound drawback just to take other drawbacks? No other jump makes you do that, and indeed some others have Plot Bound as an actual drawback with CP and everything. It's like you're trying to get in on the CPwars in the worst way possible by actively punishing people who want to buy more things in a jump where each background has two trees that they can't fully buy without taking drawbacks.

>>45243678
Not yet. I might work on it in the future, but it'll probably take a while to figure out perks since I can't really go based on what the characters can do.

>>45243771
Sanity?

>>45244181
He hates you.

>>45240287
Could I get a little bit of clarification on what Find This Person Fast does? The first part reads like a "the plot goes off the rails and you can't abuse metaknowledge" drawback, but I don't get what the part towards the end mean? What exactly is meant by useful advice being twisted into meaningless blather?

>>45242698
What is Chrono Cross, and would teaching them Magicka style magic help them? (Mostly the fact they can quick-res if needed)

>>45244247
I doubt that, I just think he came up with an idea that seemed interesting in his head and didn't think it through.

>>45244174
It has happened multiple times in show also all the items you pick up are in pokeballs.

>>45244464
Just drop it, anon, you're never going to get greenlit for this "everything goes in the Pokeball" thing and it's pointless to keep trying this argument.

>>45244388
Chrono Cross is the "sequel" to Chrono Trigger that goes so far off the rails that it's really not the same setting. I would not be surprised to learn that it was originally meant to be a unique IP instead of a sequel, and just got piggybacked onto Chrono Trigger for name recognition. All the characters from the first game die, everything they did turns out to be pointless, new plot themes are introduced that massively contradict the first game's, all the new characters are awful...it reads like a bad fanfic.

>>45244181
Mainly? Because without it, there's nothing to keep you from ignoring a good half the drawbacks. In most Jumps the plot is still going to take place even if you avoid it. In Chrono Trigger, someone from the modern era literally will not encounter it unless you go chasing after it. The Day of Lavos is 989 years after the Jump ends.

Like I said, I feel like it's a good compromise between Persona's requirement that you take part in the plot, and the Jumper's privilege to just faff about for ten years. You can still do that, and you get your thousand CP.

>>45244294
Basically, important information will be mistranslated to not be useful. Think being told that energy whirls will disperse when you use your Slash technique when what he means is tornado energy will be dispersed, or being told "one of you is close to someone who needs help" when what he means is "ask your friends if they know people who need assistance."

>>45244526
Didn't Chrono Trigger have a more direct sequel that never got finished?

>>45244201

So other than being suicidally stupid to attempt (just like taking that drawback) would locking Lavos upgraded to Super Mew in a pokeball and then making sure nobody can open it(or at least make it too difficult to try) by a valid method of stopping/defeating it?

You know hypothetically if you actually last long enough to try.

>>45244584
That was a fanwork, and it got shut down due to a Cease and Desist letter.

>>45244598
Nah, I mean Radical Dreamers.

>>45244587
I'm not even going to comment, because that requires a knowledge of Pokemon that I don't have. But yes, the Lavos Beckons drawback can be satisfied by sealing Lavos away through some means that can permanently imprison a mountain-sized (literally) abomination from beyond the stars.

>>45244526
>it reads like a bad fanfic.
I just want to say that, even though I think it does cause a lot of issues with Trigger's story, I enjoyed it as a standalone game.

It also has one of my favorite medium painting moments, the scene where the silent protagonist starts talking.

>>45244587
Well, remember that it states that it's not just that Lavos copied the DNA of things you encountered, he also scanned you and learned what you are. So he probably knows you have a Master Ball, and wouldn't make himself enough of a Pokemon to be susceptible to it.

>>45244609

I think that was an untranslated visual novel. Although from what I remember almost everyone is still dead except Magus.

>>45244638
Fair enough. Chrono Cross would be fine if it was it's own game, yes. It would have some problems, but no more than were typical of PS1-era JRPGs. But the attempt to make it fit into Chrono Trigger ruined it for me.

>>45244542
>persona's requirement to take part in the plot
You mean how we can't take part in any of the canon plots? Yet another arbitrary restriction from you, something that seems disturbingly common in your jumps.

I have so many perks that add narrators of various sorts describing what I do I feel like mystery science theater jumper edition.

>>45244675
Seriously? Taking part in any of the canon plots means that you're never going to matter as much as the protagonist. That's what being the Wild Card means, that you're the main character and everyone else is there just for your own personal growth. Since trying to actually balance the Wild Card for the jumper would be really difficult, having you be in a separate narrative without any Wild Cards at all seems to be a nice compromise.

>>45244675
Yeah, I can understand the desire to be a part of the games' plot. Tell you what - if I modify Persona, I'll include a +0 CP drawback that puts you in the proper timeframe for the location whose era you're in.

>>45244675
What are you talking about? You can be involved in the canon plots. Take Strange Journey and you'll be involved in EVERY canon plot.

>>45244735
Gosh, who could ever want to go to a Persona series for the characters. They must only want to be a Wild Card, not to just take part in the crazy adventures that might make someone like Persona in the first place, or the wide and colourful cast that is the series big focus.

>>45244155
>Implies that if you take it exteremly early a significant portion of Lavos new DNA would be pokemon DNA.
Huh. Could work. Not something you'd really want to hedge your bets on though.

>>45244638
I loved Chrono Cross too. You just cannot talk to CT fanboys though, they're absolutely rabid about it.

>>45244687
Did you take the MST3k jump too?

>>45244736
That sentence made a lot more sense in my head. What I mean is I'll add a +0 CP drawback that makes your year happen during the canonical event. But yeah, as >>45244735 pointed out, you're going to have to deal with not being the main character.

>>45244638
>>45244783
I wouldn't be considering making a Jump out of it if I didn't love the game too. It has some serious flaws, but it's still a wonderful game in its own right.

>>45244736
And you said the same about changing Fallout months ago, so forgive me if I'm a bit doubtful on that. Doesn't seem like it'd take more then a few minutes to add such a simple option so that you can actually go to the Persona games people like.

>>45244754
Wrong, you get to be involved in the plots of the SMT games. You're still at least 2 years passed Persona 4 and even further beyond the earlier games. It's also an extremely hard drawback that doesn't let you enjoy the games since you have to deal with Strange Journey's world ending plot.

>>45244772
You realize you can still have that, right? The characters are all still around, just because you're in between games doesn't mean they cease to exist. The only one of the canon characters you can't interact with is Makoto. And you get your own crazy adventure, which is likely to be more enjoyable since you can't just use meta-knowledge to go "yep, Adachi's the killer" or "no, don't kill the Arcana Shadows" and solve everything in five minutes. How awful that you'll have to actually solve a mystery.

>>45244825
That anon isn't gonna stop. His newest post shows he doesn't want you to do anything but cater to his every whim but also sit there and let him bitch at you. He's a cunt, ignore him.

>>45244735

Actually that's only in three and the later games. Before that when everyone was a wild card equivalent it just means your not going to matter even if you are the protagonist and that you might as well be in Hell with how bad things got.

>>45244736

Any chance of imported companions being able to get stuff besides a persona and a probably traumatizing backstory?

>>45244804
Yes.

>>45244879
>>45244825
What? No, please. I may not be the bitching anon, but I'd like to be able to interact with the cast of my chosen game. I mean, sure it would be cool to be the wild card, but it would also be impossible to balance with the other choices so leaving it out makes sense to me. But please let me mess around with my preferred plot.

>>45244856
Even the latest game would have the characters all have aged two years, years spent being friends with each other. Sure you could befriend them too, but it's hardly the same as taking part in the journey alongside them.

And you can hardly whine about mysteries when nearly every jump we have has meta knowledge. You can just tell everyone the big plans in Naruto or Bleach, yet you're hardly forced to go into an OC plot there. And no, not everyone wants an OC adventure over the canon one they know and love and want to jump to.

>>45244879
>Cater to every whim
>Ask to spend the 5 minutes max it would take to make the jump actually about the Persona games
Nah you seem more cunty right now desu.

>>45244993
>Friendships are worthless if they're friends with someone else first.

>>45245036
How about the fact that you'd be meeting them 18 or 14 years after if you wanted to befriend the people from P1 or P2? Sure, they're the same people in a general sense, but they've likely stopped being the same characters you knew when you played the games. They're not immortal either, most of them would be getting to be middle aged by the time you meet them if you get to them at the start of the jump.

>>45245036
He's saying that being friends, and being friends who went through something together, are actually different things.

>>45244843
I was pretty clear that Fallout isn't getting updated until Fallout 4 goes on Steam Sale and I play through it.

>>45244888
Not sure. That's something I'll have to think about, because several the perks in Persona were designed with the intention of just you having access to them.

>>45244979
Sorry, what? I literally just offered you what you two are asking for - the chance to be part of the Fool's Journey. You won't be the hero, and if it's during the Philemon era you won't be a wild card, but you will get to play that game and meet the cast.

>>45245119
All right then. Do we have any sort of idea when you might update Persona or is it remaining an 'if' as you said in your post?

>>45245089
>Sorry, what?
In regards to the other post I linked. I'd be quite pleased with a +0 cp drawback.

>>45245119

This post >>45244979 was also replying to a post implying you shouldn't change things because someone was complaining, and from what I can tell is basically them going please change it even if someone was being a jerk about it.
