/jc/ when was the last time you were faced with total war?

I took the 300 CP drawbacks for Legacy of the Aldenata. The only reason Earth survived was because of my mass production perks which let me produce billions of hellguns and thousands of plasma guns. Cardboard armor obviously would not help here. Cloning tech and Dust helped too. In the end too many were dead but we held the damn line. We held.

So yeah this is how Earth became 40k lite.

>>43630428
I wound up having to create strategic weak zones to lure the Posleen in. I'd have people, mostly companions put up just enough of a fight in those zones to draw the posleen into the trap, convince them to commit. Then, we brought the Light of Terra out of hiding, leaping it into firing position with the Elsewhere Coil, and team human runs like fuck as the Light shines upon our foe.

Sword Art Online's "Immortal Object" perk + Harry Potter Horcrux = Inviolate Immortality?

>>43630569
Given how Immortal Object works, and how Horcruxes seem to work, that'd probably just lock you into some kind of unending torture.

>>43630353
Meh. His story still works without that bit, so I gave it to him.

>>43630618
>>43630353
Sisters of Silence
Not the same thing, but close enough that a casual might mistake one for the other.

>>43630618
Well, there's also a number of other little issues like the Cult being still illegal at the time. Just wondering if they were intentional changes, since they mentioned they weren't familiar with 40K.

>>43630569
The indestructible Enchanted Weapon from Samurai Jack may work better.

40k storyfag here.

Yeah, I didn't know, and still don't know, a lot about the setting when I mapped out that narrative. Its safe to assume any inconsistencies with canon are unintentional.

Is my narrative fucked, or is there some way to salvage it? I kinda like how it worked out.

>>43630706
Change "sisters of battle" to "sisters of silence"
They are close enough that your story won't need to be changed much.

I recall once reading that you didn't have to remove drawbacks at the end of a jump if you didn't want to?

Is that a thing, or just some anon's fanwank?

>>43630800
Little of column A, a little of column B.

Most people are generally fine with it as long as the drawback doesn't give you any real benefit. 'You have no eyes' is seen as a fine one to take, 'you are the protagonist and you're in the jump for 100 years' is generally not although some people go down that route as well.

>>43630800
Nah, that's a thing.

>>43630800
You can keep any drawbacks, but you no longer get points or any other benefit from them.
They exist solely to make your life more difficult

>>43630800
Yes. There are no further rules concerning it, no matter what anyone says. Any drawback can be retained.

>>43630800
Long been a thing.

Let's talk about non-perk but in-jump improvements. Or rather, improvements that are CAUSED but not immediately given by a perk. As in, a possibilty to do it.

What jumps or perks give ability to increase one's size permamently to unrealistic levels without making them become non-humanoid looking(Stuff like Female Titan from Attack on Titan is still allowed)

>>43630837
>There are no further rules concerning it
>Any drawback can be retained

That could just as easily be stated to support the fact that no drawbacks can be retained. There's no rule against taking all the jumps at once in one mad mashup universe but that doesn't mean you can necessarily do it.

Whenever there isn't a rule it's best just not to be stupid about it and keep it within the spirit of things.

>>43630800
I hope it's a thing, or I just lost an arachne-alt.form. I got from a drawback in Inuyasha.

>>43630873
Nah fuck off. I know exactly what you want to try and enforce.

>>43630898
What's that?

>>43630428
The Posleen are the perfect example of why wizards invented Genocide spells.

I am going to have SO MUCH FUN when I get around to that jump.

>>43630728
...They're mute soulless servants of the Emperor when he was up and walking, meaning they'll find the Imperial Cult a perversion of the Imperial Truth, not to mention negating Sororitas Faith powers by their very presence. That, er, won't really work.

>>43630706
Well, you could just take out the Sororitas, replace them with some soldiers from the Heresy (note that the Imperial Guard didn't exist at the time, instead there was the Imperial Army that had a number of organisational and doctrinal differences) who were secretly Cultists (probably best not to let anyone know that was written by Lorgar, aka the Daemon Primarch who was the first of the Primarchs to turn to Chaos) and (if your actions in the Heresy were sufficiently impressive) have the Choir eventually realise you were some legendary venerated figure from the time of the Heresy from putting together clues from the legends and stuff you and your companions said.

>>43630681
Clever. Very nice.

>>43631032
My point was that they are a group of women who are fanatically devoted to Emps and who hate Witches.

"Close enough a casual might not notice the difference"

>>43631055
Sisters of Battle are all about being inspiring (if somewhat disturbing in an "are they going to execute me for Heresy?" kind of way) beacons of Faith to bolster their allies and lead the masses to glorious victory.

Sisters of Silence are silent, secretive, and inherently repulsive to all around them thanks to being not just soulless but so actively soulless that they weaken the souls of everyone nearby. They mostly work as executioners to remove select psyker targets, and are extremely rare and valuable thanks to the scarcity of Blanks.
The closest analogue to the Sisters of Silence by the time Sisters of Battle come around are the Culexus.

>>43631301
His point is just that if someone casual heard of them both, they'd assume the Sisters of Silence were a sub-type of SoB.

>>43631316
...No it isn't?
>>43630728

That's pretty clearly a statement that the two organisations work in close enough ways that they can fill the same role in the story.

Canonically confused Redux writefag here again.

Sorry I keep poping in and out, I’m glued to the news watching France.

If you don’t mind, I’m going to steal large chunks of this >>43631032 and use it to do my rewrite. The fact that they aren’t Sororitas, which means that I wouldn’t be either, technically, makes it more mythic, and helps explain the Choirs actions more.

Thanks for the assistance >>43631032 and >>43630728.

Canon arguments and issues aside, story was enjoyable'ish?

>>43631316
I assumed that Sisters of Silence was a group of Simon and Garfunkel fan girls.

Again Games Workshop disappoints me.

>>43631403
>I assumed that Sisters of Silence was a group of Simon and Garfunkel fan girls.
Maybe they're not fanatic; maybe they're just a little disturbed.

>>43631389
Good apart from the lack of bitchslapping Horus. Because he needs it.

And Jesus, over 120 people might be dead in France. Fucking horrifying.

>>43631389
>which means that I wouldn’t be either, technically,
Technically, you would be if you took that origin. The location roll mentions the Warp tosses you through time, which while not exactly common in 40K isn't super rare either (though going that far back is). There even is (or was, before they all dissapeared suddenly...) a minor Ordo of the Inquisition called the Ordo Chronos that specialised in dealing with it.
I would highly suggest keeping your background-imparted urge to yell prayers to the God Emperor and call people Heretics under very tight rein, since as mentioned at the time of the Heresy the Imperial Cult is extremely illegal and the Emperor... well, let's just say he got quite mad indeed at Lorgar for his preaching.
I certainly don't mind if you take chunks of it, since that was, after all, the reason I wrote it.

And yes, story worked quite well overall.

>>43631508
wait why are so many dead?

>>43631587
Series of bombings and attacks within hours of each other. Nothing from ISIS yet but who's gonna be surprised if those scumbuckets take credit for it?

>>43631587
Multiple coordinated terrorist attacks.

>>43631018

>>43631962

Start out in trouble with the Triple Threat Triad, but easily smack them down. Not before Chief Beifong arrests for disturbing the peace, though. Double Bending Genius (Earth) means I'm the greatest Earthbender ever was or will be. Meet Korra when she first arrives in Repubic City and buy food for her and Naga. Get arrested right alongside her when the Triple Threatss show up again. Spend the main storyline helping out with B-plots and in the background, mostly just amazing everyone I'm still alive. During Lin and Toph's "Heart-to-heart", when Lin mentions Toph never said anything about her father, lead her to believe I am. She works out the math but still funny. After Kuvira is dealth with and Best Couple go on their vacation, take over the Fire Ferrets and lead them to be Pro-Bending champions for five years running.

>>43631655
Okay, I'm morbidly curious; is there any particular reason why I would even bother 'redeeming' the Posleen?

I mean, it's not like I'm going to be killing all the Posleen, ever. Just enough to give humanity some breathing room.

The Darheel I'll just leave stewing in quiet terror, given that I plan to stealth all my actions.

Also learn every major language in free time.

>>43631996
Well, you don't HAVE to, but The Posleen are just the victims of being manipulated, and even as little as I care for the Darhel so are they (though them I find irredeemable anyway) and it's the Aldenata who need to be fucked with a rake. Once upon a time, way way way back in the mists of time, Humanity and the Posleen were bros.

The world is as modern-day, with the exception that Demihumans--monster people--have lived alongside normal folk all the way back to cave paintings. In most cases, they're fully integrated into general society, though there are some exceptions, such as Bee Hives, the nomadic Equine Herds, and certain Tribes of Lamia. In my case, I get to spend the first three years here going to a fancy boarding school with a lot of STEM classes. Luckily, I have three friends through this: Chisame, an athletic Mouse with the attitude of someone thrice her 90cm height; Kaede, a naive but curious Bee Princess that was sent by her mother to learn ways to modernize their Hive; and Lilac, a withdrawn and studious Arachne transfer student. We put together an Orienteering club and end up going to the same University, even after Lilac's father was transferred back to America. Ended the Jump with a job teaching at the same high school we graduated from, which is a nice break to have between Jumps.

Iji. Nanomaster makes you a master cracker, which is like hacking except you can hack people. You can also haxk two or more weapons to get something with aspects of both, like cracking a shotgun and a laser blaster to get a laser blaster shotgun. You also get to keep the originals.

Not committing to anything, but is there any interest in a The Gamer jump, but with the understanding that The Gamer power is taken by Han Jee-Han, the Jumper isn't getting it, and the best you're getting is partying up?

I mean come on, any The Gamer Jump means you're getting Illusion Barriers/Instant Dungeons anyways.

You've got baby black and white thinking.

>>43633147
There are already ways to make dungeons, so spoilers ain't really an appeal/justification for a jump.

That being said, the core story for the Gamer is just starting off, so even though a couple people have expressed interest in making a jump, if they do make one, it's going to basically see 5 - 6 rehash cycles as the plot reveals more substantial problems + more characters and abilities.

Because nearly the entirety of the series is spent watching Han experiment with the Gamer power and it's only really just starting to see stuff outside of his own power.

>>43633257
>Isn't every jump a power grab anon?
Its only a power grab when its advertised as: Don't Worry, You'll Get Powers X, Y, and Z. Powers and items should be part of the jump, obviously, but if you're making a point of selling that then I'm going to assume that's the emphasis as opposed to exploring the setting or getting involved in the plot.

>>43633272
Oh so the series is just starting to open up? That makes sense. It would probably be best to wait till there's enough to make a workable jump right?

>>43633291
That's very true. I make a point to include enough perks, items, and drawbacks to make it feel like they're getting their CP's worth and have an enjoyable time of adventure and fun!

>>43633291
There's nothing wrong with telling people cool stuff from the setting that's available. Your priorities aren't everyone elses, but even outside of that it sounds like you have paranoia issues.

>>43633216
>setting with a standard power which is useful

>"power grab"

>>43633257
Because the pacing of a Korean Manhwa generally takes about a year to go through a segment, and in Korea a lot of authors (especially on naver, which is their main media site for this sort of stuff if you will, but that's an aside) tend to burn out before it finishes.

A well known example of this is Veritas, a manhwa which ran for 5 years, with an equivalent storyline equal to one arc in Bleach basically. The artist gave up on part II due to how long it had been.

With the pacing being this slow, a lot of major plot points don't get revealed in a "rapid manner" - this is completely logical. The problem is, a lot of plot points are hinted to early. For example Jee Han's mother the Unknown Classer Level ???. The various factions. The Top Factions in Korea. Lots of namedropping with not a lot of explanation, but heavy stress on their importance. So as an author, do you ignore them and then update your jump each time a chapter comes out?

We have Tower of God, which unfortunately I'll have to use as an example here. The jump was made right before an arc reveal that basically made one of the backgrounds/items possibly the best combination (It was hinted it was the best already). So now if the author is gone, that combination may well stay that way for quite a while...until the plot shifts yet again. Tower of God is likely to run for another 4 years at least, and updates routinely.

So yeah, with Gamer being so early, and moving so slow, it is difficult to make it into a jump without doing a lot of OC.

>>43633332
>That's very true. I make a point to include enough perks, items, and drawbacks to make it feel like they're getting their CP's worth and have an enjoyable time of adventure and fun!

>>43633405
Yup. Baam, because he's the Ex-Slayer Candidate (Irregular) and bears the Thorn, got a free pass to a lot of crazy shit that has escalated in the Hell Train arc (this one right now)

Irregulars basically drive Tower of God's plot.

>>43633479
We kind of always knew that Irregular or close association with one was necessary to be the protagonist. It's in the name. The Regulars are all bound by the laws of the tower as a metaphysical thing, aren't they? How would they ever change anything?

>>43633529
I think to people who actively follow the series, it's something that is very natural, entirely agreed. I'm not sure for a person with no knowledge of the series - whether they understand the depth of the implications when they choose this specific combination.

Baam is starting his Ichigo power climb right now, so we'll probably see by the end of hell train whether the Thorn will grow more.

SHINING FINGER DRILL: Good Idea or Bad Idea?

>>43634480
Depends on who you're fighting. As much as it pains me to admit it, not every battle requires attacks capable of destroying continents. But provided you have cause for it...very good idea.

MCU, if you're willing to sell a liver for the CP needed.

so, the "what he would've wanted" drawback out of Familiar of Zero, how literal is that? Like, if I choose Louise void slave, and am getting summoned out of Primal Rage, will everyone’s first reaction still be "Louise summoned a commoner!" or will it be reasonable, general stuff? I know, I probably should just fanwank, but I can't decide which would be better.

>>43635230

>>43635322

>>43635328

>>43635221
I always assume you have a couple of minutes to an hour in the warehouse, or wherever you meet with Jump-chan, to make your decisions for the next jump. And for her to "grade" your performance in the last jump.

When I did the void-slave thing I assumed I had time to assume any of my Alt-forms before I arrived.

>>43635416

Even if you didn't have time didn't Saito's summoning include having to wait for dust from an explosion to clear?

>>43635544

>>43635655
It's like the opposite of the general guide to hotels.

>>43635655
Nah, King Crazy will give you a worse time than the Pope, and his digs are worse.

But King Crazy also gives you the best power.

>>43635647
There's two ways to go about this - either you consider the jump as canon in that the Thorn offered isn't a true Thorn, but just a replica, or it's the real Thorn and the description is inaccurate.

If we take the first option, the whole thing resolves itself neatly, it does only what you've listed and nothing else.

If we follow the context of the actual manhwa however, things change a little. The Thorn is a living entity, a lifeform implied to evolve rather than a tool. As it evolves, it pumps its user full of power - apparently with no upper limit. Its only limit seems to be "How much can my user withstand".

A lot of the stipulations about the Shard have changed since the manga started releasing more updates. The part about being a hazard to allies and foes alike is now false - Baam in an incomplete state can now control that aspect very effectively. He's only just started acknowledging the entity within the Shard.

The part about "It grows stronger alongside it's owner." has become a bit false as well - we see in the interactions between the Shard and Baam that it's a symbiotic relationship, except the Shard is much stronger than Baam, so it can't forcefeed Baam full of energy all at once.

We know that the Shard, and growing the Shard is part of FUG's plans to eventually disrupt the entire order of the Tower. We don't know how exactly and whether the plan is being manipulated. We do know that the power grows on demand, rather than in set intervals - as Baam sees "need", the Shard answers his "call".

Thing is - we know that the Shard will continue to evolve and gain new abilities - triggering Baam's growth as well. It's like a magical wild card. Killing Immortals is just a side job of its.

>>43635719
For once I agree with you wholeheartedly. Magical artifact proficiency is downright scary when you consider what a jumper has access to.

What was King Crazy's big deal anyway? All I have is secondhand information.

>>43635750
Greedy and hungry for power basically. Also batshit insane.

>>43635812
Really? That's it? I thought he had some kind of emotional problem leading him to seek purpose in wanton destruction.

At least that's sort of interesting in a sad sort of way. Solvable by emotional therapy perks too.

>>43635747
By 'replica' I'm guessing the intent was that it work like the canon one, but I'm not going to argue if some bullheaded ass whines. No point.

>>43636727
So why did you even post?

>>43636784
To give my opinion. Sometimes, people give their opinions but aren't willing to argue them with belligerents.

>>43636793
Just seems counter productive if all you're gonna do is insult someone then leave.

>>43636800
>insult someone
Insult who? The nebulous idea of those posters who get really angry at everything? Unless that's you (and if you identify as that then the fuck) then who am I insulting?

>>43634564
Lord of Light is pretty good, even if you don't go for electromagnetism for an aspect.

>>43634564
Adventure Time for Elemental Monarch (x) followed by Medaka Box for Real Eater to change (x) to (Lightning).

Caveat: Medaka Box is a shonen and the cast have a variety of completely bullshit-tier powers, so you may want to keep a very low profile in that jump. Maybe quietly skip the country and have a vacation in Australia, or wear 9-to-5's Hidey Hoodie 24/7/365/10. Or both.

>>43637407
Elemental Monarch is Slime, Candy, Fire and Ice.

And Real Eater is fairly specific on how you can change stuff. It has to be related. Like Strength Boost into a Speed Boost. You might be able to wiggle Fire > Lightning but its a bit of a stretch I think.

>>43637443
Slime > ?
Candy > Vegetables
Fire > Lightning
Ice > Magma

Any combination from air to fire to lightning isn't all that farfetched.

>>43637443
Well, given you can make throwing balls of 'fire' become throwing balls of 'ice' as one of Real Eater's examples, 'fire' to 'lightning' should certainly be doable.

>>43634564

Asura's Wrath - go for Pride as your Mantra Affinity.

That doesn't necessarily make your power manifest as white-black lightning, like Zeu- Deus, but it's a reasonable conclusion.

Question about The Witcher Jump. How the hell do the companion imports work in that one? It has the CP for imports but nothing written for what those imports give.

What's the least lethal jump in which to learn magic, Jumpers? I wanna get all ZAP, MUTHAFUCKA! without being toast myself.

Even Harry fucking Potter gets lethal near the end.

Bonus points for healing magic. I don't know why, but healing magic seems to be extra rare. You don't see instant healing in Harry Potter or Dresden Files. It seems to be almost exclusively a videogame thing.

All things considered? I'm guessing Spacebattles. Because I'm pretty sure Tumblr doesn't even know jumpchain exists.

>>43638287
I'd say it was the WoW of this generation, but in all fairness WoW's writing problems far dwarf its mechanical ones, and I dont know enough about Warframe currently to know who's worse at pay2win

I mean, look at any other thread on any board, on /tg/ or elsewhere.

Rudeness is not a bannable offence. I mean, could be argued spamming requests for your favourite setting to be updated is kind of rude but here you and I are.

>>43637771

Your continuous bleating is pathetic, and were I the person who had made the Destiny jump I would never update it solely to spite you.

This might sound kind of obvious in hindsight but-to what extent d'you guys think forcefields are compatible with each other? We're not talking about different magic systems' fields-just forcefields in general.

Let's take four examples-the Force Field Projection from City of Heroes, an HSDW-strength Bounded Field, some Demon Eyes from Mushoku Tensei with Absolute Void and Absorbtion powers, and AT-Fields.

How easy would it be to simultaneously raise all these fields if you want to not only shut out all magic and conceptual attacks, but launch a counterattack a la Rebuild's Zeruel by squishing the opposition under an accordian-like attack of stacked forcefields?

>>43638496
I'm not sure what you're asking exactly. In what way do you mean "compatible", Anti-kun?
Technologically speaking I've always sortof considered myself layering multiple forcefields over top one another anytime I want to guard something, sortof like sandwich parts. I don't imagine there's any problems with it, although the field does get a bit thick after you've layered five or more of the things.

Are you talking about overlapping them? Combining them into one superfield? I imagine it depends largely on the physics systems involved. Blatantly contradictory things might not work together so well, but if they work in completely different ways that don't overlap it might hypothetically be possible?

Of course, if there is a contradiction, that sounds like a good way to blow a fuse or accidentally rip an EMP. So probably watch out for that.

>>43638496
My guess would be that it would depend upon how those fields are generated, ie power source, and how they are raised. A magic field from a less rigid system might go up with a thought, but a field from a crunchy harder-scale scifi might take time to power up.

tl;dr - Need more information to answer the question properly.

>>43638646
Didn't SV get made because SB was censoring everything?

Don't forcefields tend to emanate from projectors? It doesn't make sense for a projector to be able to project a forcefield in a space that's behind another forcefield, suggesting that, at the very least, overlapping forcefields will be limited by projector-placement and angle.

>>43638752
Why do we care? They're both bargain-bin sites.

>>43638752
There was some drama about firing a mod (and attempting to claim it was the mod retiring), and SB having severe server issues at that time.

>>43638668

Applying their effects to each other simultaneously i.e. using the magic-blocking forcefield to cover the moveable AT-Field as you pull it back to smash into something.

So...yeah, pretty much overlapping them into a superfield.

>accidentally rip an EMP
>tfw trying to make sandwich of forcefields only for it to fall apart from conflicting energies, like a fat man trying to put too much bacon in his quadruple decker

Good point. Any ideas on how to mitigate that?

>>43638696
Fair point. Mostly thought of innately generated field, although we do have one or two tricks for remote activation of personal forcefields.

>>43638753
The ones he brought up are generated personally, though. There are loads that are projected remotely of course, but those tend to be relatively hard scifi ones. Compared to Eva and the like, anyway.

>>43638785
> Any ideas on how to mitigate that?
Well, obviously you have to figure out which effects are contradictory to each other first. As people behind keyboards that's pretty difficult to actually figure out, but as jumpers you would realistically be able to figure that out pretty easily with some small scale experiments. More tedious than anything, trying all the different combinations in controlled circumstances.

After that I would say converting them over to other systems might help, which can be accomplished with experimenting and research, which is particularly aided by (of course) Crimson Saint from Maoyuu Hero & Demon King, although also helped along by pretty much any easily moddable magic system. If you can convert everything to the same system, or at least the parts that don't play well with each other, it should be much easier to layer them all across each other.
Of course, I'm sure some of that stuff just straight up can't exist in the same area as other stuff, because of completely contradictory physics systems, and Jumpchan's fiat only goes so far. But you should at least be able to sandwich them in that case, like I do. As long as those instances can quietly ignore each other, y'know.

Also, don't be afraid to use some substitutions when necessary.
But it basically all comes down to, "fiddle with it til it works."

76KB, 1024x640px

>>43638922
Oh. While I'm at it.

That perk from Cardcaptors would probably help, too. You know the one, the Drop In cap for combining magic? And there's one in Binbougami that does the same thing with spiritual energies, which is also probably pretty useful, particularly for AT fields.

I think trying to combine all the different things from magic, tech, and spirituality is going to end up getting super unwieldy as you add more to it, but with those and Crimson Saint, you should eventually be able to either combine or convert everything into some sort of working system, probably. Although it might take, y'know, a good thousand years or so or even more, depending on just how much stuff you're cramming together.

So, y'know, maybe wait til you're in one of those ridiculously long jumps before you start working on the meat of that. That way you'll have less distractions, iron out all the kinks, formulate entirely new fields of magic for the soul purpose of creating a field of Absolute Repellent. That kind of thing.

I've started to doing small rolled runs as they're pretty fun for a bit and tend to result in some different builds from normal.

Jump 1: Underworld.

26 years old
Drop-In
1218
Hunter
Anti-Monster Weaponry 100
Immortal 400
Social Manipulator 500
Blood Memory 800
Genetic Assimilation 1200
Lycan Companion 1500
Death Dealer 200
Silver Resistance 300
Leader of the Pack 500
Alpha Wolf 800
Modern Weaponry 1600
World of Monsters 1000

Here for instance I felt like as I dropped in and it was 1218 I'd probably need a companion and as it's the first jump I had to buy an OC one. Went Lycan as having someone who doesn't have to avoid going outside in the day is generally preferable to one who can't. Doesn't really make sense as the Lycans barely existed at this point historically and there weren't any on the run. Maybe this is one that got made a while ago and everyone forgot about. Werewolf companion works nicely as a sort of authoritative captain of the guard sort.

On the other hand I always go Immortal as it's a slow burner but it's cheaper and ultimately stronger than any of the other options except maybe Hybrid where it's just way cheaper.

Death Dealer also doesn't make sense for them but there's basically nothing else they can take other than either pointless or overpriced items or other perks that make even less sense. Figure it just gives them arms, armour and training.

Modern Weaponry actually gives a terrific edge in 1218. Hope the weapons come with replenishing ammo or else I've just bought a lot of stupidly shaped clubs.

Seem to always roll really early in this. The question really is whether to try to sort out the area I start in or to go somewhere else where there's other different monsters I know less about. Probably best to go somewhere else, maybe after giving the Lycans a bit of help breaking out and trying to make them a bit more civil.

>unexpected confrontations

Well, one of my Companions threatened to kill me in GTA.

I just wanted to make Vice City a decent place to live. Was it so wrong to clear out the gangs when the authorities refused to do their jobs? Was it so wrong to fight /them/ when they started shooting at me for doing their jobs better than they were willing to? Was it wrong to feel confused - even betrayed - when the civilians turned on me?

I don't understand where there was such a problem with me being angry at this turn of events - but after putting to a vote among my Companions, I relented.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you this very important public service announcement.

I rolled Warhammer 40K Redux which I made a build for on my most recent rolling minirun so don't particularly fancy it again at this point.

Instead decided to go full ordering and just make a Bad Karma run. Underworld can still be number one though, already got a non-human form and an attack-werewolf.

Body Mod:

Medium
Charmer 100
Endurance 4 300
Appeal 4 400
Shape 4 500
Metavore 600

Same as it always is. I'm yet to see a bodymod build I think is better. Also known as the 'party for days' build. Endurance is really great as it provides your body (whatever that's like) the ability to keep moving without getting tired, where Strength and Dexterity can be picked up elsewhere and can be bundled into new forms Endurance stays useful. Plus I was always really shit at cross country running and am slightly asthmatic so I may have something of a complex. Got excited for a second there and thought I had an extra 100 CP but then remembered you've got to pay for your Body Type.

Warehouse:

Forcewall 20
Local Net 50
Stasis Pod x2 90
Free Space 120
Food Supply 130
Return 150

Exactly the same as usual. Forcewall and Free Space are essential for obvious reasons. Local Net is great as getting internet in a forcewalled other dimension seems like it might be impossible. Return is unique so I always choose it even if I'm not sure what to do about it and might as well spend the rest on Stasis Pods. Last 10 CP was a tossup between Electricity and Food as they're both things I can get myself. Figured I didn't know when I'd next be able to even pick up electrical items so might as well go with food.

Speaking of WoW, Legion is looking pretty good. Looking a lot like Burning Crusade, and Demonhunter looks sweet. From the pre-alpha gameplay they play a lot like warrior-rogue with dash of warlock.

Rogues apparently the combat spec is getting renamed "Outlaw" and even has a hidden pistol shot. So it going with the swashbuckling pirate theme.

As for WoW Jump when Legion hits I'll be changing up a few things. Mostly because everyone gets an artifact that you level up and customize. What I'll probably do is something similar to God of War's "Weapon Of The Gods" thing. Idk how the artifacts you get level up, or if you get them starting at level 1 now.

I'll wait and see.

Eldar Jump is coming along slowly. I trying to muster up energy to finish it in timely manner. Who knows when it'll be finished, but I know I have a long break coming up. Then a longer break shortly after. So if the creativity comes to me, I'll defiantly hammer away at it.

Why Disney Princess for the first chosen option in an evil run? It has arguably the best villain background of any reasonably safe jump. It's also, for my money, the best background in the jump. Add on Tres Belle to the bodymod stuff so I can look good while I do bad and it's more or less your standard Villain build. I've got magic, a monstrous form and control of the sea. I don't have any outside technology yet, get bested occasionally by that pesky princess and spend the last 5 years asleep (but I'm pretty sure sleeping for ages is something that is good for you if you're an Underworld monster already anyway).

For my princess I guess I'll go Ariel as that's pretty funny in the forest, the fat mouse from Cinderella as the sidekick and that Aztec Llama guy from that stupid Aztec Llama Disney film as the prince.

First half is pretty much learning magic, maybe finding Maleficent for some bramble based stuff and gaining and then throwing around political influence. The second half is being asleep while Gellert (what I've decided my Lycan companion is called as it is both a Hungarian name and a reference to Gelert) does what he likes with the setting.

That Sword and Sorcery jump is beyond merely good. Posting a build:

Drop-In

To Truly Live (50cp): Happiness for cheap. I feel like there is a good parable here.
A Well Traveled Road (50cp): Tips and tricks. Useful enough.
One of the Wise (100cp): Intelligence. Always to take.
A Scholar’s Treasure (100cp): Luck in scholarly pursuits? Sure.
Call to Greatness (150cp): Feeling for plot starters, nice. I wonder what happens when you start stacking them?~
Lost and Forgotten (150cp): It is always the most important things that get lost. Or do they become important because they were lost?
To Treat With Spirits (300cp): There is much potential hiding here.
The Heart of Man (300cp): One always has much to learn.
Grandeur and Allure (400cp): Obligatory appearance perk. I can just never quite resist, can I?

A Wanderer's Cloak: Alright. Sure is handy.

A Selfish World (+100cp): We shall see indeed.
A Cruel World (+100cp): ...I am going to one hell of a world, hm?
The Nail That Sticks Up (+200cp): ...Actually, don't answer.
Tarnished In Spirit (+200cp): Again, one always has much to learn. Me, more than I'd like to consider. Then again, all these poor people from the previous drawbacks have a surprise coming.

This will be... A spiritual journey.

Update on WITCH jump. As I started drafting the thing, I remembered that the animation only covers the first two arcs out of eleven, and is somewhat subpar when compared to the original material. And that means rereading the comics. Will take some time.

Origins so far are Drop-In, Meridian Dweller, Guardian and Escanor. Not sure what that last one would make you in relation to Phobos and Elyon just yet.

>>43640840
It's Saturday you geezer.

>>43640809
Yup. The plot is quite nice, too.

Now, if only the plans to cross it over with Marvel went through... I mean, can you imagine - Peter Parker being a mentor/big brother figure to five magical girls? What could have been, indeed.

>>43640851

>>43641078

Really, though - those were the exact plans.

Wonder if I should write a drawback about that...

So Genius: The Trangression is being made into a jump, but is anyone doing Princess: The Hopeful or Leviathan: The Tempest? There's tons of fanmade WoD settings out there worth a jump.

>>43641292
Does anyone have a list of 'em?

>>43641292
So jumpchain: WoD edition?

>>43641292
No one has mentioned them as of now. Knock yourself out and good luck.

>>43641312
Not as such; I'm remembering things from before the White Wolf forums went down for good. They may or may not be mentioned on the Onyx Path forums.

On second thought-Leviathan and Princess are the only ones finished enough to be done into a jump, I think. And even Leviathan is mostly unfinished compared to Genius and Princess, last time I checked.

>>43641351
To clarify-I'm not calling either, because I've lost my PDFs for both

>>43641318
Oh, I wish. Sadly nWoD has one or two splats problematic for jump conversion, from Mages being able to turn themselves into basically Exalted-style Primordials at high Gnosis to Demons being able to hack their way straight through reality-for free, with the right combo of Embeds.

>>43641479
Yeah, I'm gonna have to skip Mage when making the oWoD jumps too, Mage is always just too good. Though I am trying to think of a way to include linear magic (Sorcery) somehow. Maybe as a DLC of sorts? Thankfully Demon: The Fallen is a lot more tame than Descent so it's fair game for me.

Too bad there's no oWoD fansplats that I know of.

>>43641479
Come now - TvTropes has links for both. The problem is not a problem at all.

So what did you guys do in a One Punch Man jump? And what did you choose?

>>43641542
The only ones I know of are Senshi: The Merchandising (basically a joke line about '90s anime messing with the consensus reality of Mage: The Ascension) and Tech Infantry, which is about aliens and wizards being caught on camera, which in turn caused consensus reality to flip its shit and spawn millions of wizards, which in turn caused the Gehenna War due to all the magic waking up the Antediluvians, which FINALLY ended with the Technocracy more or less winning, exiling most of the supernaturals and leading humanity into space. The main setting is about space adventures, if that wasn't clear.

Neither, I think, would be say to make into jumps.

It is somewhat amusing to me that the legit biblical demons are less broken than the sufficiently advanced, biomechanical quantum machines currently known as demons.

>>43641647
*easy

>>43641568
Down that path lies madness, anon.

Besides, it's 4 AM in the morning and I have a packed week ahead of me.

Whelp, my chain just ended. Dice sent me to MCU, I got greedy and took heavy drawbacks and then crit-failed the success rolls(23 total on 3d100). Only consolation is it took a nuke to put me down, a Peak Asgardian/Hellsing Werewolf is fairly durable.

Entrepreneurial 850
Naughty 1000

Got to admit went with Villain for thematic reasons rather than discounts. I mean they get some nice stuff but I'd generally go Drop-In and get the puddle portals rather than Or Suffer My Curse, still it's a good perk so doesn't really matter.

Drawbacks in Courage seem like a bad idea but being a greedy bastard that gets reprimanded by a Chinese man and birds is not THAT dangerous. Particularly given that my accent and perks more or less make me a second Katz living with the Courage Family. Will probably end up making off with the copper in the walls and starting a cruise line or something.

>>43641292
We've only got like 3 proper WoD jumps out of the bunch of games as it is. Could do with more WoD jumps generally.

Big Question.

If you are in One Punch Man jump, can you just go to the Hero Organization to take the tests and apply without buying the licences in jump? I mean, I don't see anything stopping you?

Also, can you do it as a mysterious being if you are not straight up, well, evil?

Can you talk to Saitama before the three years after which he starts looking for you if you take the Saitama hates you and convince him beforehand that you don't want to be a threat or such? I meant, the drawback says you could talk it over with Saitama so...

>>43641630
hid

>>43641868
Not at all. You could easily ace both tests if you've been to, say, DC right before OPM. They're not exactly the most rigorous things; Saitama failed the entire written portion and still passed.

That's...harder to answer. You...might be able to pass as a very eccentric hero as long as you don't shout about your plans to enslave humanity or cleanse the world all the time. As a general rule, the less obvious your physical mutations the more likely you'd be accepted.

And I certainly don't see anything stopping you from doing the last one.

>>43641982
Actually, jumpers, what origins have you chosen?

Also, I am dissapointed that none of perks gives you a theme song by Jam Project.

>>43642041
Jump came before the anime.

>>43642055
Silly anon, That opening is so awesome it transcends Time itself

>>43641292
>>43641754
>Could do with more WoD jumps generally.
Agreed. The chain needs more opportunities to remove k̶e̶b̶a̶ . . . m̶u̶z̶z̶. . . Hunt vampires.

The chain needs more vampire hunting opportunities.

>>43642041
Look at the Super Robot Wars jump.

>>43642041
You can pick up a JAM Project theme song in Super Robot Wars, though.

>>43642147
>Not hunting werewolves, ghosts, kue jin, fairies and demons too.

>>43642159
Oh, I'm equal opportunity in that respect. But it seems like we've got more be a vampire than hunt a vampire jumps, and I'd like to see that reversed.

>>43642203
I'll get around to Hunter eventually, for all your oWoD supernatural killing needs. Pretty much most supernaturals deserve some hunting, even if not all of them are the problem.

>>43641479
>>43641292
Actually i might do Leviathan:The Tempest
.....
When i figure out how to fucking decide on the neat powers they get (aka handling the birthrights and such).

But i had began the basics a long time ago and i still remember some of the items i had written, so since no one else seems to be calling dibs...i am.

I will upload my alpha version in a couple of hours when i got time and some sleep.

Take a loot at how VTR and Changeling do it for inspiration. VTMB too, though it's good to keep in mind that's for a videogame and not a tabletop, and is set in the oWoD.

I went Drop In. Because it had the tech perks. And also Saitama likes me, I guess...?

When I landed, I almost immediately went into hiding in a labyrinth I'd built into the sewer. And from there I'd send minions out into the city to steal and engage in petty villainy and throw around the sigil of the Ouroborous.
And then I'd build robots.

But I didn't build armies. No. For once I went for quality. I threw everything I had into making the most ridiculous, powerful, impossibly shonen robots I could think of. I did incredible things. Things I didn't think were possible in my mad quest for power. As each robot escalated and each robot was imprinted with the sigil we became something of a mythical force of evil. Some great and powerful being beyond ken that seeked nothing less than the destruction or conquest or misery of the world at large.
They weren't really sure which. The ouroborous was mysterious.

But they were always stopped. Because the heroes rose to stop them. Because, when the strongest would arrive to challenge the world and no one else could save them, one man would appear to defeat them with just a single punch.

And that's the kicker. Because I wasn't doing this for conquest or power or to push my limits or anything like that. I did it for him. For Saitama.
Because... I knew how much he wanted it. He wanted a villain to fight. He wanted a challenge.
And I wanted so desperately to give it to him.

...

I failed.

It was, fittingly, Saitama who found me. Which was weird, because the attack was nowhere near my location. I was still hiding in my labyrinth. Watching. Was he lost? How do you get that lost?

Nine and a half years of my life devoted to this, nine and a half years of attacks, escalating in power and insanity, a mysterious figure cloaked in shadow commanding an incredible army. And when he found me, he didn't find a towering figure in armor or a monster beyond imagining. He didn't find a strange and powerful anomaly who had stolen power from other dimensions.

He found a girl. Crying over a workbench.
Because I had failed. I just wanted to give him this one thing. And I failed. And all I could say between crying was, "I did it for you."

And he couldn't think of what to say.

>>43642595
I meant whats the plot

>>43642727
Okay, in a nutshell?

You are a sea monster in semi-human form.

Specifically, a member of one of the tribes descended from the primordial sea deity Tiamat, who was slain by Mardukh. This may or may be an allegory for your clan of aquatic, inhuman masters of elemental manipulation's decline in the face of humanity's technological prowess. You can summon storms, smash through things with huge tentacles, seed cults with your eldritch bloodline-and your clan is, on the whole, still losing because of the muggles and their goddamn civilisation bullshit, which covers everything from awkward social situations where you have to hide your gills to guns.

>>43642618
You have the bonus of being a pretty girl as a jumper, thus it improves the sadness and such of the scene

ANYONE ELSE WENT ONE PUNCH MAN JUMP?

>>43642593
Oddly, I realized that there is nothing stopping you from taking both Saitama hates you and Saitama likes you.

Jump 4: Captain Planet and the Planeteers

30 years old
Eco Villain 100
Alternate Element (Drugs) 200
The Power Is Yours 600
Pollution Palate
Mastered Material Engineering 700
Elemental Pollution 900
Minion Master+ 1300
Money Maker
Iron Fist 1500
For the Evulz 1300
Hitler Hate Beams 1000

This one took a surprisingly dark turn given the setting. The previous jumps were probably just enough for me to choose For the Evulz without really thinking about it and I thought it'd be a funny idea to choose drugs as my element. Drugs actually have a pretty good synergy with a lot of the perks, I can probably spike people just by them being nearby as well and can produce vast quantities of them.

I also have 20 minions each representing and capable of producing and weaponising drugs, a pharmaceutical company and the ability to be empowered (ignoring the negative effects of drugs). As always the challenge of the jump is to kill Hitler and I have to do that in the messiest most collateral damageiest way possible. Given my new skill set this is probably going to involve spiking Hitler and everyone within a few miles radius until they either rip each other apart or die due to side effects.

The Power is Yours!

>>43642525
Best not to look at bloodlines really. It's got less content and is pretty much all just lifted straight from the game mechanics. If people are going to do the actual tabletop games properly Changeling and VtR are where to look as they're both pretty good. Lot of work required though.

I assume you basically get the Garou plotline if you do that: Saitama beats the shit out of you because he thinks you're a threat, but then changes his mind and buddies up with you at the last minute.

Jumpers, how do you determine when or how many times to roll for events in the jumps if you roll for their outcomes

85KB, 407x222px

>>43642949
>>Actually taking that drawback...

>>43642965

Well, that's the gist of it really.

There's a group of not-Hunters called the Marduk Society, which are allegedly founded by the immortal sky wizards who trained under Marduk. And the organization's higher-ups may or may not be powering their technowizardry through humanity's despair-and are actively cultivating human despair to keep their own powerbase strong. Amongst other things, the Old Men of Se-I mean, Marduk are harvsting leviathan flesh to stay immortal.

There's a place called the Rift that's half spirit realm full of bad juju from the Tribes' genesis, and half mindfuck abyssal undersea location.

To underline how badly civilisation has fucked the Leviathans, electricity deals aggravated damage to them. Family relations are a goddamn nightmare; it's not uncommon to be born into a feud with another family while being oppressed by a combination of interfamilial pressure and high birth defects/mortality. Oh yeah-the Leviathans are good at having /lots/ of babies, not so good at having /healthy/ babies-again, implied to have something to do with their progenitor being slain and humanity's subsequent rise to power.

>>43642978
If it's something I could potentially fail at because of either factors outside my control or a lack of sufficient abilities/skills, then I roll for it. As for the number of rolls, it typically depends on the situation. For example, in Dragon Age wanted to learn Shapeshifting magic, so I rolled once to see if I could find a teacher but failed then I rolled again to see if I could find on the topic in my Library from Endless Legend and succeed. So it's best to only roll however many times as reasonably possible.

Would Pokemon be a good race import for Civilization?

>>43643077
So this is a situation where both the PCs and their enemies are evil?

>>43643143
What could go wrong?

>>43643143
>Import pokemon.
>End up getting humans too.
Thus the question is answered.

>>43642965
Since i am writing the jump i can tell you that this is possible.

Anything you specifically wish to see?

A small cult of hybrids sharing your blood will be possible in accordance with the themes offered....post jump you can choose for them to get any jumper fuckery you got.

Just keep in mind the stronger a hybrid is.....the more beastial/less sapient they are ussually.

I will also add a book for you to give to your cults and more things.

You are a more like a demigod of the Dagon more than anything if you ask me(there is also a choice to be of his blood/this clan/Strain so to speak).

They are not the most....fertile strain, but they are i think quite badass like most Strains.

(A Strain is essentially your vampire clan, only a bit more complicated).

>>43643077
Thanks for answering him.

And yeah Leviathans are indeed more or less all about the old glories and how they simply re-discover the wheel instead of doing anything new (or so they say...this part i shall leave in each jumper how correct it is).

So....its like playing Call of Cthulu only that you are the Eldritch abomination with the cult jumper.
Did i mention you get an unctrollable mind-fucking aura called the Wake?
You might also at times instead of making someone love you and worship you
Or for some reason they will Hate your guts and attempt to hunt you down and kill you.
Or they might be immune to it and proximity to such a person would feel very....relaxing and nice to you.
(more control over it after the jump obviously as well a free option for companions as someone immune to the Wake....or a small import price..like really cheap for being the last type of person who is immune and helps you calm down and such).

>>43643207
Yep. Welcome to the WoD.

Apparently whoever's writing 2e of Leviathan has a major progressbonor for the Marduk Society. There were some throwaway mentions of the orgnization just becoming aware of their superiors' corruption, but in 2e apparently they upped and killed all their evil technowizard overlords and revamped the organization as a heroic group of science heroes.

Make of that what you will.

>>43643277
What I make of it is that the writer has a boner for technowizards and is making them into Mary Sues because he can't handle gray vs. gray or black vs. black morality. Thus defeating part of the theme and tone desired by the original creator, making it overall a bad update in at least that respect.

>>43643245
>You might also at times instead of making someone love you and worship you. To hate your guts and attempt to hunt you down and kill you like an insane serial killer or stalker(they are a bit....superpowered...meaning they are immune to psychic powers...namely the Wake and perhaps anything that messes with their mind).

There i fixed it.

Ahabs are terrible things that can track you down, and if you are the Leviathan who 'spawned' them then they shall hunt you down to the ocean if they must.

And should they kill you and after they...calm down another Leviathan passes, they will 'awaken' so to speak again.

In essence one might say they are humanities auto-immune system as a collective wholle?
Haa. My jump seems to be turning into nasu-verse.

Giovanni are a clan of Italian vampires with a big emphasis on two things. Family, and necromancy. They're one of the clans that recruit almost exclusively from their own mortal families. Regular humans do regular human things, ghouls do the more sensitive business, and once a ghoul has proven themselves enough, they become a vampire. Since they're Italian, yes, they do get involved in organized crime/mob stuff for money and as a cover.

>>43643948
Interesting. I may have to put VtM on my chain now. Seems like I could get up to some real fun there.

I just hope i will deliver properly and enough.

VTM vampires don't react to garlic.

>>43644025
Minor vampiric weaknesses vary based on clan in the World of Darkness. Sunlight, fire and staking are common to everyone, but the parts of the vampire myth that differ based on culture are due to not every vampire having those weaknesses. The Giovanni, fortunately, don't have to worry about garlic. Actually, thinking about it, I'm not sure if any of the clans have garlic as a weakness.

>>43644088
If I recall correctly there is a specific drawback for that kind of thing. Most can't cross water and such but with the drawback, even things like garlic applied.

Bueno! Huehuehuehue!

>>43644088
The only vampire-related thing that can't eat garlic are the Basarab. The Bararab aren't even vampires, though. They're a family of Revenants bred by the Tzimisce.

Revenants, for those unaware, are a Tzimisce science project that resulted in families of natural born ghouls. That is, they're humans that naturally create vitae and have ghoul powers. Sounds great, right? Too bad they're massively inbred and horribly evil and warped because Tzimisce.

>can't
Ya mean can?

>>43644150
Yes, my bad.

Generally the Generation of vampire you play is so diluted that a lot of the weaknesses except sunlight don't effect you unless you take drawbacks that say otherwise.

>>43644197
Nah man, you play a 13th gen by default in VTM. Full clan weaknesses. It's 14 and 15th where things get weird. Then thin bloods where common weaknesses often just don't exist. It's just that NO vampires in VTM have an issue crossing water. Some of the kue jin might though, I'd have to look at them again.

>>43644252
Really now? Hm...I may be thinking old rules then or something.

Damn, now I'm tempted to break out the rule books again.

>I'm yet to see a bodymod build I think is better.

I think it varies somewhat depending on one's personality, but yeah, I'm a big fan of Endurance 4.

Prospective jumpers might find it worthwhile to note that Bodymod has a couple of oddities; I wonder if the Benefactor might have used a different world than ours to calculate the "human average" stats. For instance, current average human vision is roughly 20/20 but you only get that if you buy one rank of Sense, and current average running speed (based on the one-mile run) is roughly 6+ miles per hour but you only get that if you buy one rank of Speed. Or maybe the Benefactor knows something I don't. Either way...

My preferred build:

000 Build: Light (but not short)
100 Body Type: Athlete
050 Strength 1/4. "Bench press 180 lbs." For a lithe person, I'm fit.
200 Endurance 4/4. "Run all day without tiring." The energizer bunny!
000 Speed 2/4. "Run at a constant 15 miles per hour." Run, Forrest, Run!
000 Dexterity 2/4. "Basic parkour." I can train/perk up from here.
050 Appeal 1/4. "No acne. Ever." Since I'm going to be a teenager over and over again.
050 Shape 1/4. "No extraneous body fat". As above. I can train up further if I want.
050 Sense 1/4. "20/20 vision." Implies the average is less than 20/20: do not want.
000 Flexibility (Tier 1). "Makes you extremely flexible." Twister champion.
100 Metavore. "no matter how much or what you eat". Don't underestimate the value of good metabolism.

Between Endurance 4 and Speed 2, I'll always have energy to pack everything I can into every day (can win any marathon in at least this world). Sense 1 is because my vision is very blurry without glasses, I really like being able to see, and I don't want to wait a decade-plus for good vision and miss out on any scenery if it turns out my first jump doesn't have LASIK.

>>43644351
It was really early on when Quicksilver made Body Mod. So it's kinda quirky. Just like the Warehouse which he is why went back and added 50 more points.

>>43644480
1. General consensus is that Bad Things happen when organic matter is put through 914

2. At least you're honest about where you're from.

3. Please leave.

4a. Will we soon be visited by an irate poster who somehow construes 914 as an act of misogny from Tumblr?

>>43644523
Don't respond to bait dude. If you hadn't then it wouldn't have left any mark on the thread once it was deleted.

>>43644523
Nope, /jc/ hasn't reached tumblr. They don't really have the right environment / forum set-up for CYOAs compared to 4chan.

Jump 5: Squirrel and Hedgehog

26 years old
America 50
Attitude Adjustment
My Unit, Sir 100
Alpha Wolf 300
Determined Beast 700
Whatever It Takes
Through Superior Firepower 800
In or Out 1000
Alpha Wolf 1300
Infinite Seeds 1350
Rifle
Imposing Desk 1450
Data Core 1600
Utter Incompetence 1000

Surprised I didn't think of this earlier as a jump that probably make you evil given that either you're evil, drunk or a wide eyed squirrel-like animal. Also funnily the second time in 5 jumps my companion has been imported with a perk called Alpha Wolf.

Great early jump for some extra strength and durability plus there's some laser weapons in a setting that isn't that dangerous for one with a lot of laser weapons. All my allies and companions are total wastes of space so Gellert is going into voidspace for the duration.

>>43644351
I asked Quicksilver about that ages ago as that is a bit backwards. I was asking in terms of height, in real life I'm pretty tall and I didn't want to drop to average height on account of taking the bodymod. He basically said that you don't lose anything you want to keep from your real body on account of bodymod so if you've already got 20/20 vision you keep it regardless without paying for it.

Basically just serves as a minor fuck you to people with glasses. It's an odd design choice.

>>43644543
With Body mod, I generally advise everyone to dip into all the basic options once, at least.

>>43644588
I personally go for the sense purchases, being as they're the ones that veer into overtly superhuman feats, like heat vision

>>43644543
>Basically just serves as a minor fuck you to people with glasses.
I dunno, you still have to pay for rank 1 if you want to get the higher ranks, right? And sense ranks are actually pretty awesome. Seems like more of a fuck you to people without glasses, since they basically have to pay to get nothing if they want the better stuff.

>>43644614
Same. You get physical boosts nearly everywhere and for fairly cheap. Metavore and sense boosts? Those are awesome and not found anywhere as cheaply as they are in bodymod.

>>43644543
That does go some way to explaining why pokemon is a good choice for a first jump, though. Pick some some spectacles, or some contacts, in a reletively safe environment with modern technology.

>inb4 pokegangs, legendaries etc

There's worse places out there in the multiverse and y'all know it

>>43644614
It's tempting, but I generally wait until Lightbringer (see everything from xrays to microwaves) and also the power to turn it off.

>>43644640
The one exception I can think of is Evangelion, which gives you bsdivsllu the rank 4 purchase for 50 CP buy bryyrt.

Though really, it says volumes about how awesome the sense purchase is that it can be compared to something from Evangelion.

>>43644543
>He basically said that you don't lose anything you want to keep from your real body on account of bodymod so if you've already got 20/20 vision you keep it regardless without paying for it.
That's interesting, I genuinely did not know that. I picked the height boost because, like you, I'm tall and I didn't want to take a hit in that respect just because I went charmer.

Guess I need to relook at my bodymod build, then.

>>43644523
No bad things happen when you put sapient beings, or their corpses in. Particularly on fine or very fine. However you should read the Olympia Project, it gives some more insight into things happening with 914 when people are seeking a specific thing.

Dang, nobody ever talks about that one. Always wondered what kind of neat luxins people have made. Ages ago we tried to make luxin from the Colour Out of Space.

The results still weren't as destructive and horrifying as our attempt to make octarine luxin, though.

>>43644588
That's silly.

As mentioned though dipping into Sense is a total waste of CP if you already have good vision.

Speed grants no endurance and gives you the amazing power of running at a speed much slower than what is average for an adult human as mentioned by this chap:

>>43644351

The others are things most people probably can't do so are pretty reasonable choices.

>>43644633
Yeah that's a pretty good way of looking at it as well.

>>43644614
>>43644640
That's also a good shout. I do think seeing IR light or heat might be pretty distracting though, also just don't really see that much utility in it although there probably is some I'm missing. I also really wanted the endurance stuff and it usually takes quite some time to find a stamina perk as good.

>>43644672
*basically, and...fuck, I don't even remember what that last thing after 50 CP was supposed to be.

I'm drunker than I thought, and need to sleep.

>>43644735
>I do think seeing IR light or heat might be pretty distracting though, also just don't really see that much utility in it although there probably is some I'm missing.
Being able to see IR, thermal and the like would be amazing. Beyond the ability to work, fight, and operate seemlessly at night, you'd also have the ability to differentiate between different objects/people based off of heat.

That is very useful. You could spot vampires due to their lower body temperature, or the very sick due to their higher body temperature. You could look at a parking lot and see what vehicles had been used recently.

Lots of utility.

As for the distracting bit, I just assumed that it was like any other enhanced sense you see in movies or comics: toggleable.

>>43644830
I would assume that you'd simply become accustomed to it. It's no more distracting than your ability to see in colour.

>>43644720
The color of magic?

>>43644668
>>43644720
Which jump is that?
