Jumpchain CYOA Thread #1262: Sure 'Nuff Edition

Jumpers! Have you ever used Return?

>>50985530
Yes, either to spend more time with friends i've made that i haven't companioned for some reason or because i needed more time to loot the place to the bedrock.
Or just because i want to wait for some drawback to go away before i do something.

It's not like i'm in a hurry, i don't have anyone i want to companion that would need a pod and most of the other warehouse options can be replicated with a few tech perks.
So i generally take Return.

so how did you find jumpchain?

>>50985674
I was in cyoa gen when quicksilver made pokemon.

I was there when QS was in PACYOA making Pokemon Jump. Then it wasn't until later that I realized that it became its own thing. I've been here since then.

I had been lurking /tg/ for about two years and kept seeing Jumpchain show up on the index. Popped in once, didn't understand it, gave up and went elsewhere.

I then tried again during a long dry spell in games, and I have deeply regretting my decision ever since.

Jump #236: Rome
>The High Priestess, reversed: The forces of nature unleashed.
>Age: 30
>Location: Greece
>Identity: Roman Patrician
>Drawbacks: Et Tu, Comes? (+600)
I'm bringing along all my companions and aiming to make the Roman empire a better place. It's 50 BC and I'm introducing steam engines. I'd be surprised if everyone WASN'T trying to shank me.
>Soles of the Empire (Free, Roman)
Walking is the most tedious thing, but I suppose if I'm running around the Roman empire at the speed of sound, people will get suspicious.
>Empires and Legacies (1400, Roman)
I'm working toward the good of the Empire, to make it last rather than forcing it to rest on the back of slaves for the next five hundred years, until it falls apart. I think that's worth something.
>Trading Up (1000)
If I am to make things of value, I will have to ensure they're made right. When people realize the potential impact of what I'm doing... this is going to be a brand worth something.
On a related note, it's going to take a LOT of work (or a really awesome marketing campaign) to make this matter in most jumps unless you piggyback on something - ten years is not long to build a brand at all.
I'll have to see if there are any jumps that I can buy a company in that I can take with me and make them exist retroactively in future jumps.
>Affluenza (Free, Patrician)
As much as I'd love to not rely on this... there'll be times where I just run out of fucks to give. This helps cover for that.
>We Understand Each Other (900, Patrician)
Oh good, now I can confuse everyone watching at home until the end of the season where it all is thrown into a COMPLETELY different context!
>Good of the Family (700, Patrician)
I'm not really sure that I'll be needing to remind people of the (rather extended) family that we're all basically a part of, but this is a good 'get your head on straight' perk if my companions do get too wrapped up in silliness.

>>50985862
>Darling of Divinity (200)
Oh, fancy. Now I'm a little luckier, my legacy will be remembered, and I radiate authority. Then again, if my legacy ends up being what I'm aiming for...
>Family (0)
As I said, my companions are a family, of sorts. It's just a little more literal than it used to be.

There was once a dream that was Rome.

The reality is thus: Rome is an empire built on the backs of slaves, indulgent in excess and uncaring of bodies in its wake, ignorant to most progress, reliant on patrons to get anything done.

This will change, because western civilization needs to step up its march.

Ten years is not a very long time, especially when it means I have to get involved in Roman politics, but if I get in with Gaius Julius Caesar, I can get these changes pushed quite quickly. And I have the abilities to do precisely that, as well as to basically amp up the creativity of anyone who follows me (i.e. anyone who starts using steam based machinery).

Sure, to start, they'll be little more than curiosities. That's why, along with the steam powered machines, there'll be sudden breakthroughs in metallurgy and other fields. Romans love their hot baths? Well, now they can have a hot bath all day long. Here, this is how you plant a grove of a certain kind of tree, cut it down five years later, turn it all into charcoal and do particularly well. In fact I've left behind pages and pages of potential advancements that will serve the Roman empire over the centuries to come. Like these septic systems, this sewer system, water supplies and pumps and why the pipes should be ceramic or copper and not lead, even a form of refrigeration... and so on.

And with the changes made here, I intend to slowly make slavery unnecessary. To increase the wealth of the empire overall and give it a proper middle class. In time, to ensure that the luxuries that the higher classes have can become commonplace and widely enjoyed.

There is a dream that is Rome.

It shall be realized.

>>50985674
Lurked for ages until I decided to try and make the Worm jump. Stayed since there were several folks who were also in MR and I enjoyed hanging with them again.

Sins of the past.

>>50985674
CYOA gen when Pokemon and Infamous were made. They were nifty. And then other people started making jumpchain documents. And then we got our own thread.

Two and a half years later, here we are.

>>50985530
Yes. Back to Pokemon as soon as I had left it.

I'd like to say that I had some master plan to set myself up to control the world or even that I wanted to take as many Pokemon out into the multiverse as possible, but truthfully I just couldn't bear being away from my wife and our close friends. I'd already done it once before and I didn't think I could do it again so I put it off while also picking up a Pod or three.

>>50985674
I saw some jumps posted in random places, the idea of interconnected CYOAs seemed interesting so I tried to find out where they came from.

Didn't actually find the thread while I was looking for it, I saw it while lurking in a 40K thread quite a while after giving up.

Assuming they have one besides waifu/husbando.

Funny thing, actually. I came across cyoas my freshman year, and became obsessed with the Power Armor CYOA. Then i found some jumps in the form of archived PDFs (back when fucking everyone didn't know about jumpchain)

Eventually i found myself at /jc/ thanks to /cyoagen/. Got here around thread 262 or so
I revamped+imaged the SALT jump and remade most of the small horses jump

I sometimes bend particular rules to make what I think is a more interesting narrative. See [Demon on Wheels] Perks also aren't infallible and have a failure rate depending on how impossible something would be 'normally', mostly in terms of charisma or how anti-climactic the success would be.

Jump #237: Total War
>The Lovers: A decision calling for emotional control and faithfulness to spiritual values.
>Age: 18
>Location: Rome, 270 BC
>Identity: Faction Heir (-500)
>Drawbacks: Where Do All Of These Asssassins Keep Coming From? (0)
Mandatory drawback from being faction heir. Tsk.
>Army Without A Home (400)
Never hurts to ensure my armies can get more mileage out of their supplies.
>Reform, You Spineless Dogs! (Free, Faction Heir)
At least I can keep my armies from fleeing if it turns out badly. Which makes their battles bloodier, but much more effective against an enemy.
>Run Them Down! (Free, Faction Heir)
And when the enemy runs, we're much more effective in pursuing them as well.
>Nothing To See Here (0)
Doesn't hurt to be able to be ignored when I want to be.
>To Me, Brothers! (Free, Faction Heir)
And the troops keep getting scarier.

I mean, a solid army is exactly what is needed to get things to where they need to be.

But perhaps you weren't listening earlier.

There is a dream that is Rome.

I will drag it into reality, kicking and screaming if I must.

>>50985674
I Googled CYOA's and eventually ran into Jumpchain.

>>50985674
I was a long time CYOA Gen lurker. I had been around and played the bigger releases: Magical Realm, Conduit, PACYOA, Stardust, and I knew QS from his builds.

So he started making a Pokemon CYOA and while I wasn't a big fan of Pokemon I was curious to see what he'd do with it. So when proto-jumpchain got kicked out of general I followed it over and I've been here since.

>>50985945
I actually try to make sure all of my Companions have a role in the group. It helps people feel important when they have something they can do better than you can. It's an essential part of team building and good for group dynamics.

Raven (Teen Titans): Second in Command and Magical Powerhouse. Seriously, as much as I know about magic, Raven blows me out of the water every single time.

Wakana (Imawabi No Dakini): Magical Blender. In terms of raw firepower she is second only to me, especially after Forgotten Realms. She may not act like it most of the time but when she dander is up she can blow away small mountains or shred entire platoons of enemies.

Yamato (Imawabi No Dakini): Necromancer. Not something I ever expected to have one of my Companions specialize in, but after Shaman King he really took to the art. He's happiest on a battlefield where he can really stretch his talents to their limits.

Major Lina (Ring of Red): Rear Line Strategist. The planner of our group. Takes my half-baked ideas and takes care of all the little details I tend to forget when I run off all half-cocked. She's also insanely handy with a rifle and will happily demonstrate this given half a chance.

Okuda (Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon): Berserker. Considering she started out as a Support from her own universe, I find it hilarious that she turned out to be our front line specialist. She takes basically every strength and melee perk she can find and will gladly charge opponents ten times her size with just a sword in hand.

Rip Van Winkle (Hellsing): Ranged Support. I mean, naturally. Just try to keep her from this role. I did give her antique rifle some major upgrades though.

>>50986036
I tend to bend the rules when the story demands it, but I try to keep the spirit of the adventure in mind every time I do. I also tend to use the "If you can convince them, they can become Companions" house rule when a Jump doesn't have a way to buy the character that I want

>>50985674
I found Pokemon/Infamous/Warehouse on the SB thread, downloaded it, was unimpressed, and left it on my HD for a year.

Later, I stopped at an out-of-the-way motel with shitty wifi on a roadtrip, and I was bored so I read it again. I remembered there was an entire gdrive of this stuff, leeched off of it for awhile after I got back, and eventually remembered that this thread kept popping up when I was lurking /tg/.

>>50985674
Was looking for more CYOAs and found one of the threads and I enjoyed Jumps more.

>>50986036
I use the companion housing expansion, like it better than throwing people in cryo tubes. Paired with Nomanis Island from The Incredibles my Warehouse is now a tropical resort.

Does get confusing for new companions when they meet the same person from multiple settings.

>"Meet Zatanna, Zatanna, Zatanna, Zatanna, and Lil' Zatanna."

>>50985674
I saw mention of the Kantai Collection jump while browsing /tg one day and jumped in feet-first.

>>50986460
>Lil' Zatanna
You uh, you get busy with one of the Zatannas?

>>50985945
Saya: Waifu, enabling my horrible choices, probably the healer via alchemy, steals things, Rogue of Space.
Taylor: Runs Large Scale Businesses &∨ Territory, fairly offensively focused, delivers Saya's Poisons, Page of Heart.
Hale: Operates my Media Companies, controls all the ships and drones, gathers information, Mage of Light.
John: Runs Smaller Scale Companies, has a lot of "Fuck you and the planet you're on" scale attacks, is decent at Science, Heir of Breath.

I'm guessing a Mini Me from Austin Powers.

>>50986507
Maybe he looked up when he could find the loliest Zatanna and podded her? For maximum body image issues and all.

>>50986576
Bulling Titlet Zatanna? I'm in.

>>50985674
I just found Jumpchain while looking up CYOAs online, and then found out there was /jc/ on /tg/ by complete accident. So I was actually looking at the drive and 'jumping' months before I knew this place even existed.

>>50986507
>>50986538
>>50986576

Teenager Zatanna from Young Justice, spent most of the jump hanging out with her mostly because everyone bored me, Robin was just annoying.

I call here Lil' Zatanna because she's the youngest one in the bunch, not because she's a midget or loli....weirdos.

"I bought them with an abstract omniversal currency in a convoluted and nonsensical deal I made with an ineffable entity. For fun."

What's really neat is that they each get a theme associated with you so it'd be a case of figuring out 8 themes. Probably a magpie one, a cat one, one that thinks they're a vampire, a sock puppet themed one, a darkness themed one, a fire themed one, etc.

Then I can drive around being a jerk with a fan club.

>>50987175
Well, whatever it is it'll still be breast jokes. And whatever other "charm points" the characters have.

Like Suzuka's hips.

Charcoal. Plants use carbon to grow. You burn the trees and the carbon is released. It's neutral to the environment, and there are plenty of notes left behind a la da Vinci that can be studied and applied to future use. Passive solar is a big thing in my designs.

Overlord or Infernals.

Bayonetta's kind of a bitch to pick for, too.

>>50987228
That only works if you grow enough new plants to cover the carbon you release by burning trees.
Which is generally not something early industrialization societies pay attention to.
Otherwise you'll still have more carbon released and less forests to convert it to oxygen, so you'll still get a higher carbon content in the atmosphere.

Can Fiend Caste Infernals learn a Demon's personal Charms?

Is there any perk that could substitute for "Great Warden" from the City of Heroes jump? I wanna apply my perks to my sword, but really don't wanna spend so many CP for some shitty elemental perks when there's so much other good stuff in the jump.

holy empowerment from Helsing+power combinations from young justice

>>50987454
Yes. Demons count as spirits, Eclipsoids can learn spirit charms. They probably can't learn the super-unique charms of Third Circle Demons, though, panoply charms tend to only allow one user.

>>50987514
Ah, okay. Thanks.

One more question. Could a Slayer give themself the Fiend's ability to learn other Charms when they went Devil Tiger and redesigned their Anima?

>>50987502
Could you explain how that would help me? Holy Empowerment is just a magical buff for your body.

>>50987595
Theoretically, if their personality suited that.

Just my permanent Companions for this one.

Emmy (Pokemon)--Interpreter, waifu, and primary People Buffer, and the one that calls me out on my bullshit. She generally acts as a foil to me, in addition to having a much better grasp of various healing techniques.
Chartreuse (Negima!)--kuudere hypercompetent but snarky valet/waifu. Enables my various hijinks. Computer, Tech, and Logistics expert.
Hime (ATLA/Generic Magical Girl)--Began as my steed and bounty-hunting partner. She still helps a lot when we're doing some kind of hunting, but she's more of a big deredere puppy as far as behavior.
Chicky (SW: Clone Wars/Kancolle)--Tsundere cavalry that calls me out of my bullshit. Yes, I do need two of these. Weapons and transportation expert.
E (Kancolle)--Mamadere, somewhat domestic, but very protective of all of us. Has become the healing and secondary magic expert.
Rae (Kancolle)--Dandere sneaky girly girl. Always hiding behind someone or something, she's our Rogue and generally a tiny little moeblob.

The Boys (SW: Clone Wars)--Comic relief and ego inflation, secondary to being grunts.

>>50986036

>>50987313
None of them have turned me down to go explore, but Chisame and Krystal have both taken breaks.

As for secrets, I'm generally pretty open to my Companions. Usually it's not that I deliberately hide things so much that I just forget to tell them.

To answer the first, yes, though with the number of team work and befriending perks I usually snatch up the number is smaller than you'd think. Most of the time it has more to do with their current situation than it does not believing me. There's only so many potential explanations for why your friend can turn into a Lava Dragon before a person has to start consider the whole extra-dimensional being story.

>Secrets
I'm more convinced than ever that the OC Companions my Coordinator created for me are all but engineered to prod me into continuing to Jump. There's no way Lina should have simply accepted Rip Van Winkle onto the team considering her hatred of Nazis. My recruitment of RVW was a test to see if Lina would insist on getting rid of her. Instead she made an exception relatively quickly and didn't even try to rig a toilet up with C4 even once. Raven is the only one I've mentioned this concern to and she thinks it makes a scary amount of sense. Send help.

Luna Lovegood.

Luna saw through me the moment she met me, though she was friendly about it. And I did what I could to make sure there wasn't any bullying taking place - that is, the few times there WAS bullying, the girls responsible suddenly faced the same treatment in their nightmares, and Luna would always get her things back in the morning no matter where they'd been hidden. There were a couple of idiots that didn't stop after they had nightmares and found their thievery undone, and I systematically exposed their pattern of behavior (Luna was not the only victim). Cho Chang was eventually kicked off the Quidditch team, Marietta Edgecomb took her lumps and actually became a better person for it.

Honestly, I just did my best to be a friend to her. We ended up getting romantically involved in my fourth year, and she would simply NOT stop making jokes about me robbing the cradle (which, of course, only she got - and Trelawney, who knows how THAT fraud picked up on it). She was extremely irate at me for not stepping in to deal with Voldemort, before I explained everything about the horcruxes to her. She was still angry about that for a long while, which is why I took the action that I did at the end of the next year (magical purification blast to try and render his horcruxes pointless, which worked until I came back and his horcruxes started possessing people).

>>50987978
>Cho Chang
Cho bullied Luna??

>>50987978
When the time came, she declined to come with me in a pod because she felt she would be out of place - no matter that I was literally going to show her other worlds, other creatures, other magic... she just wanted to stay in her world, since it was big enough for her to explore. She'd started having an affair with a Hermoine that was dissatisfied at home and didn't want to leave her behind, and Hermoine declined because of her kids. They did rope me into a threesome, but that's neither here nor there.

When I went back for the Parenthood jump she happily acted as a surrogate mother to the kids, and was surprised I hadn't changed much, especially when I told her how long it'd been. But once again, she and Hermoine declined to go with me (though Hermoine insists I come back post-spark to tell her more of what I'd learned). When I asked Luna whether she'd come with me post-spark to see my home, she gave me a smile and a 'maybe'.

Ah well. I guess you win some and you lose some, but that particularly stung.

>>50987992
Cho did not bully Luna directly, but she turned a blind eye to it. Flitwick was made aware of that. Flitwick was not happy about it. She got back on the team the next year though, and I made sure her boyfriend didn't die. Karma balances out.

>>50988069
Yes, I know it's Hermione. My fingers are treacherous today. You should have seen some of the typoes I actually CAUGHT.

Don't know how I did it repeatedly though, damn.

It's fanon. We know there were people in Ravenclaw who bullied her, but no one is explicitly named. Cho is a common perpetrator in fanon because, as Harry's canonical first romantic interest, she has to be rendered as awful as possible for the sake of shipping him with other people.

There's also the fact that very few of the Ravenclaw students are actually named.

Yes, but this way their dumb "fix" fic can remove her from the plot entirely, allowing Harry to be with his One True Love from the very beginning. Remember, your love isn't real if you ever had feelings for anyone else before that person.

The hilarious thing is that in my chain Luna dope-slapped Hermione when she said "dumbledore's army", and even Harry pointed out what a bad idea that was. I don't think Marietta would've ended up selling us out, but Umbridge didn't stick around long enough to find out about it anyway. We ended up getting Tonks teaching the class because they had to find an auror that wouldn't be an utter failure at it. Somehow Umbridge came down with a near-fatal case of exsanguination when suddenly all the words that students had written with blood quills (that mysteriously never cut into them) cut into her skin. Everywhere. At once. And 'I shall not tell lies' was carved all over her face.

Ain't that a bitch.

Yes, Lyndis from Fire Emblem Elibe. She had already been homesick for the plains from her time spent with her grandfather and child, wanting the latter to know the birthplace of her mother. The idea of being away, and not being able to find final rest outside of a fight on some unknown world was too much. Keeping my identity as a Jumper from her until now also played a part in that decision I think. We reconciled before I felt the tug of a world shift, but not even a love of 20 years could change her mind. It taught Jumper a lesson in when to reveal their nature and when to play it to the vest, to avoid making the same mistake again.

Jumpers, what did you do to Dolores Umbridge?

Nothing. She fell down some stairs. All the stairs. A tragic accident, really.
Some of my companions may have had something to do with it, or maybe it was just the Butterfly Effect. I didn't ask.
The problem was gone and thus no longer worth thinking about.

>>50988478
That's nothing.

I stuck Umbridge in the basement of a deserted house with a dementor, then place a permanent sticking charm on the door.

As a werewolf I did not care for the persecution against me or being called a half-breed. I feel justified since she set dementors on a pair of teenage kids.

Would a Nobilis jump be acceptable now that we have a bunch of jumps for Exalted? While Nobles are exceptionally powerful, high essence solaroids are comparable in terms of the bullshit they can do.

>>50988552
Specifically? Nothing.

She probably got taken out by collateral damage when I took over the world in a fleet of magitech spaceships and introduced myself by annihilating the centers of the magical government.

Because for the most part she was impotent. After I spanked her in a duel during dinner, was was too afraid to do anything more than be a shittier, uglier (barely) version of Snape lest she call down the wrath of God.

Also, the fact that you murdered her outright shows me that it was right of me to let her off easy.

Back in high school, got super into CYOAs for a bit. Then kind of lost interest and forgot about them. Years later, remembered them and wondered if they were still a things. Found out they were definitely still a thing, and there was a really cool one called "jumpchain".

By cool, I mean convoluted sounding, so I ignored it in favour of normal CYOAs. Eventually I decided to give the concept a thourough read through, thought "no wait that sounds awesome and is everything I've wanted in a cyoa without knowing it" (limitless power, and explore your favourite settings, what's not to love?) and spent a few days doing nothing but jumpchains in my free time.

>>50988552
The origina Minister of Magic administration kind of fell through in our second year, so she must have ended a paper pusher somewhere.

I had no interest in punishing her, just making sure she doesn't get the power to hurt people. There's a lot of Umbridges in every world, you can't possibly punish them all without coming across as a fucked up tyrant.

That was an appropriate response to all of that. OotP had a lot of passing around an Idiot Ball.

>>50988552
I almost wish I'd used my Return to do a fix-fic of my Jump. Dealt with Voldemort at the end of fifth year, so none of the last three books happened and Harry had a decent last few years of magic school. I didn't ever encounter Umbridge until about a year before the Jump ended. She didn't trust me at first, but when I offered to give her the ability to become a special kind of Animagus--one that could change into any animal she touched--just by having her touch a small blue box. She figured it would be great for catching dissenters and other such undesirables. She disappeared about a month later.

I probably should have mentioned the two hour time limit, and I doubt she had enough willpower to control the more instinctive morphs.

>>50988632
Honestly, that sounds like you were more of an asshole than Umbridge. Why do you even need to destroy anything when you have such obvious technological and magical advantages?

>>50988690
>I had no interest in punishing her, just making sure she doesn't get the power to hurt people. There's a lot of Umbridges in every world, you can't possibly punish them all without coming across as a fucked up tyrant.

You literally fight with concepts of reality and if there's something you can wank with even the most flimsy justification, you can do it. One of the most feared guys in the setting is a dude who has conceptual mastery over blankets because he sees and hears through every blanket in existence and knows where they all are, and can even control any blanket regardless of distance to smother you in your sleep.

It only gets more retarded from there.

While i wouldn't pick cold blooded murder as my first option stopping someone in a high political office from starting a genocide is hardly the action of a fucked up tyrant.

Umbridge isn't just unpleasant. Unlike most of her ilk she's in a position to engineer the murder or at least ruin the lives of a lot of people and you can't trust the law to stop her because she's working for the government and they're corrupt as fuck.

The only way to fight these concept masters is to weaken their concepts. But by doing that you can potentially fuck up the world hardcore. If the Power of Addiction fights the Power of Strife, it might cause some serious shit to go down at AA meetings or make drug wars go off like wildfire. Also, flowers are the programming language of reality.

And these guys aren't even the top dogs.

Any Nobilis game I've been in has always ended up in wanking their concepts to high hell and making the most retarded excuses for why their concept is the trump of all concepts. "hurr durr you stepped in a mud puddle, time to have it instagib you" and other stupid stuff.

Hell, Rowling even stated a muggle with a gun could best a wizard one on one.

Granted, the Wizarding world's ignorance of muggle tech even when it's clearly superior is one of the many problems that are just begging for a jumper to fix.

>>50988792
That is not entirely inaccurate. The idea is that you're someone from throughout the multiverse who's been put in charge of a concept so as to defend it from the beings from outside the multiverse, the Excrucians. Given that the head writer for Nobilis, Jenna Moran (originally Rebecca Borgstrom before she changed her name) also did a lot of work on 1st Edition Exalted, the Raksha are probably based on the Excrucians. So think of them. Things from outside the world where shape and concept are completely arbitrary that hate our world of definition and logic. They want to consume our concepts, erase them from existence. They have done so before, which we only know of because of libraries and records kept by the Nobilis that exist outside the normal world.

So a Noble's power is pretty broad, in order to defend against the Excrucians. It's a diceless system, based on resource expenditure. You can, in theory, do anything if you spend enough Willpower on it. But throwing out those Effect 9 actions is going to drain your resources fast, so you resort to your stats, which essentially give you free Willpower if you're doing something in line with them. Aspect is superhumanity. It lets you do things a human can do (or whatever species you are) magnified into the realm of the absurd and mythic. Domain is the literal aspects of your concept. Like, if your concept was "fire", Domain would let you control fires. Persona is the figurative and symbolic aspects of your concept. So for that fire Noble, they could control things that are "fiery", whether that means passion or volatility or consumption or whatever . Finally, Treasure is the power tied up in your personal symbols, the strength of your vassals and regalia and kingdom or whatever. It's one of the more abstract stats. Anyways, if you're willing to put in enough effort, or have a high enough stat, you can do pretty much anything you can justify. It's really strong conceptual magic.

Let's hear your fair and square options then.
You start as an eleven year old. You have 10 years, 7 of which you'll spend in school.
Nobody will take you seriously unless you blow your masquerade to shreds. Even then they're more likely to label you a dark lord/eldritch abomination than listen.

The best you can do is neutralize the worst offenders and give the good guys the tools to change things for the better, which likely won't start happening until after you leave.
The fact that most wizards are morons doesn't exactly help.

You've been reading too much Dresden Files. Mind Alteration is rarely shown to be THAT bad in fiction unless you intentionally try to mind rape someone.

Not an ethical option, just more ethical than murder.

I didn't, killed Alduin during the opening with out of context bullshit.

Did I just end my jump immediately? The possibility that the jump ends once I solve the scenario only just now occurs to me.

>>50989269
If the masquerade isn't self-regulating you kinda have to do it yourself. I see nothing wrong with that if that's all a secret society does
.
That they're rather incompetent at it and have absolutely no regard for the people they memory charm is a different matter, but the problem is incompetence, not keeping magic secret.

>>50989331
Witch hunts would be starting up fast. Not to kill witches, but to acquire specimens for study.
I can kinda see how they don't want to deal with that.

>>50989316
That's going to happen, isn't it? Because Madoka is pretty much just Urobuchi copying Ryuki, and then Urobuchi went to make Gaim off of the success of the reputation he got from Madoka. Huh. Yeah, you're in a pickle. Just remember which one has which silly outfits. Ryuki's the monsters, Madoka is the frilly dresses, Gaim is fruit.

>>50989331
Maybe, maybe not. Personally, I think that if there was a genuine threat to the magic community then it probably should be but that's neither here nor there since they went into secret some three hundred

Also, the Dragonborn was my decendant, via me sleeping around in oblivion, so she was just a bit overpowered, and I already knew the plot, so I just gave it to her.

Under whose authority? Do I need to remind you that the governments of the various muggle nations are in contact with the magical governments and their highest officials know full well that magic exists? You're not suddenly going to have the government dissecting them like aliens.

>>50989299
Yup. Which is why I wiped out ALL the magic systems.

>>50989312
Not care? Why is it so bad that muggles know about magic?

>>50989364
Just go with Iterative Improvement instead. Wildbow said if Dauntless had survived until the final battle, he would have been comparable to Alexandria physically, nearly as mobile as Legend, and able to destroy large areas similar to a nuclear bomb. That's after just a few years with a shittier version of Iterative Improvement.

So what's the best way to change things (assuming one doesn't have an armada of magitech starships)? Breaking the statute is obviously of high importance, but there's the possibility that muggles will genocide the wizards. Working from within the system would take too long. Maybe taking over the magical world would work, though. Is it worth becoming the scariest dark lord in history?

The magical world is only in that situation because of their own actions, though. You don't get to complain about how the masquerade falling would lead to the mundanes hunting you for study when you put up the masquerade for your own selfish reasons. The only reason the Harry Potter narrative gives us for why the Statute of Secrecy exists is "wizards are lazy and entitled, and don't want to have muggles asking them to use their magic to solve problems". What you've got is a small society hoarding an incredibly amazing resource while giving brain damage to everyone who finds out the truth. Fuck them, they deserve to be dissected.

Between religious fundies (BURN THE WITCH), regular old ignorance (Ever since that guy down the street moved in, my crops haven't done shit. He must be an EVULLLLL WIZARD) and even run of the mill social issues (magic people should be forced to duplicate food so that nobody will go hungry!!) there's a whole kettle of fish that quite honestly I can't blame wizards for not wanting to touch.

>>50989443
Wizards are people, not a resource. The way you're talking sounds like "those wizards have no right to deny me access to magic!", which is pretty much the first step to prettied-up slavery.
It's also likely what would happen, which is why it makes sense to keep the secret.

Not to mention that the ones bearing the burden of all the anger and being dissected? Those would be the muggleborns, not the old purebloods sitting in their warded manors.
Mostly children at that.

Except the wizards apparently spent most of their history mixed with the mortals just fine, the issues only started springing up /after/ they went "Okay, let's separate ourselves off because why not!" Frankly, I have no sympathy.

That being said, introducing a magic system that's a conjoined conjure of the HP one and a learnable one is also on my to-do list.

Pre-survival chain I used the companion supplement that gave harem pods. I'm not proud of myself for it. Companion housing too.

Otherwise, I think I mentioned my current chain's house rules in a previous thread.

* A Wild World: Society can not be functioning in the jumps I take in the chain. It must either be vanishingly sparse, viciously corrupt, despotic, crumbling, or downright non-existent.
Post-apoc jumps, wilderness survival jumps(a la Minecraft), or jumps that take place near the apoc(SMT 1) or with apocalpytic drawbacks

*I am a Man, not a Beast: Completely becoming a supernatural being, robot or monstrous form is prohibited, enhancing baseline body via cybernetics or magic is fine but actively changing to an explicitly nonhuman form isn't allowed. Provisions made for worlds where the local altform is needed to blend in.

*Cogito ergo sum: No personality-altering drawbacks but no personality-altering perks, either. Willpower and social manipulation boosts are on a provisional basis

*Airdrop: No Warehouse, vehicles are airdropped in, warehouse addons are deployed as safehouses scattered across the world, and replenishing supplies are airdropped either near where you start or existing safehouses. Otherwise, only what you can carry.

did fallout.
despite being lower-power, Jumper on jump 1 faced a maniacal Courier based on my side run of New Vegas where it was a One Punch Woman on the side of the Legion. It took trying to get the NCR and Mr. House to recognize the threat posed by the Legion with her in tow, and even then I had to duck and weave punches that were shattering securitrons and pasting soldiers while pumping away with whatever arms the good ol' californian government was able to give me. It was terrifying.

>The way you're talking sounds like "those wizards have no right to deny me access to magic!"
They don't. You don't have a right to hide the existence of the true laws of physics from the rest of the world, just so that you can be lazy. There were solutions other than "hide all evidence of magic and brain damage the people who discover it". Like, wizards could have taken on a privileged economic role, using their magic to provide goods and services for muggles in exchange for goods and services that muggles can provide them. They did not. Instead, they chose to perpetuate a species-wide lie about the true nature of reality. They had solutions to some of the greatest problems facing mankind, and they actively chose not to give it to us. Remember, at the time the Statute of Secrecy was formed, wizards had nothing to fear from muggles. Maybe now, but in 1692 our weapons technology was not a threat to magic-wielding supermen. This was not done out of fear, it was done out of entitlement. And it's made all the worse given that the Statute is so recent, wizards and muggles clearly interacted just fine for thousands of years. Perhaps you have a point that this would harm muggleborns the most, but there are probably ways around that. For example, just not going after children. Muggleborns that haven't been taken off to wizard school for indoctrination are clearly innocent. The adults can go hang with the rest of wizardkind, though, bunch of collaborators that they are.

>>50989759
Okay, first of all, unless JKR has spouted more drivel, there's been nothing said about why the Statute was put into place. Maybe there really was a threat to the safety of magicals. Maybe there was a history of violence between the two. And even if it was done out of laziness, you can't blame the current generation for it since the outcome of the lifting of the Statue could result in thousands of deaths or more. And not just of wizards. You can't blame someone for the sins of their fathers.

>>50989893
It's not their fathers who are upholding it now.

>>50989759
Not only >>50989893, but you also can't force wizards to provide magic services, paid or not.
Nobody has to give anyone anything just because they were born with a talent in that anything, even if it's magic.

>>50989893
Not that guy, but I'm 90% sure it was said somewhere that it exists because they're afraid they'll be constantly having to fix muggles' problems.

They're not even afraid of witch hunts. There used to be witches and wizards who let themselves get continuously captured before escaping because it was amusing.

people in my society still struggle, They just struggle towards the ends they desire rather than wasting their energy on jobs they are not passionate about, they still learn and better themselves to be able to build the device they think would make the lives of others better, spend hours in front of easels painting the painting that they dreamed. guzzle endless cups of government maximum caffeine coffee to solve the mathematical theorem that keeps gnawing at their minds. no, there is certainly struggle, but the efforts of my citizens bear the fruits of their labors and are partaken of by them rather than by corporations dictating the flow of progress and my people struggle to better the world and themselves rather than to serve a massive unfeeling entity in exchange for a pittance that keeps them from dieting.

>>50989941
Yes. It is said.

By fucking HAGRID. Who's A) not exactly highly educated and B) the exact type of person who's not going to scare the shit out of itty bitty baby Potter by telling him that hey, in addition to potentially having a murderer after him specifically, there is also a nonzero chance that someone could want to kill him and all of his friends just because they have magic.

>>50989935
They do have to be honest with me about the nature of reality. That's the thing I'm upset about, really. I don't care if they do anything with their magic for me, but they need to acknowledge it exists. Human endeavor is based in large part on the idea that shared information allows us to build on each others works and progress to ever greater frontiers. Wizards are inhibiting that. As a scientist and engineer, that insults me. It's as if there was an active conspiracy to keep humanity from knowing about the existence of electricity, just so that the people who had electronics didn't have to deal with economic demand for them.

>>50990026
Oh yes anon, the world is actually hardcore grimdark based on your speculation.

>>50989941
Hagrid says that in the first book.

>"Why?"

1. What the fuck's a pod
2. Any companion with no purchased origin can be used in a backstory as long as they are limited to backstory only and do not show up for the jump or are forced to be there via drawback.

Like with G Gundam's 'Mentor' Drawback, Colress was my mentor and he died. And he's also going to show up in the backstory for my Trigun write-up, but only in the backstory since I'm going to be an independant plant he made trying to replicate Vash and Knives. I'm rewatching the series right to have a coherent narrative, so this may change

Yes, they do. The truth about reality is the only thing that is owed to all beings. To declare otherwise is to be a traitor to the very concept of conscious minds. If you don't consider knowledge of the universe to be sacred, go back to being a slime mold and leave those of us with nervous systems to our own business.

>>50990043
Yes. Because there are certainly not people who will willing blow themselves up just to kill a few people that don't agree with their religion. And there are CERTAINLY not people who rape little girls because they think it will give them magical powers.

No, the real world is all sunshine and butterflies.

>>50990054

The most assbackwards way possible. I was on the pokemon subreddit bored out of my skull, don't you judge me saw the original Pokemon Jump that took up like a third of the page. Followed that to the CYOA subreddit, shut up, I know hung out there for a while, getting bored since nothing really came from people there. Then I went to the source, CYOA Gen here on tg, dicked around with those threads for a while though it was going through a weird phase at the time, lots of lewd jumps, and if anyone remembers that drama with that one dude who mentioned his girlfriend wasn't the right race to dress up as a Disney princess in bed, followed by said girlfriend ratting his ass out and them fighting in the thread, that was a thing . Eventually saw QS drop the Pokemon Jump we know now (mostly), got excited, immediately jumped ship to the Jumpchain Thread after that got made and been hanging around ever since.

>>50990288
I'd rather be a slime mold than some entitled prick. Use your oh so sacred conscious mind and find out the existence of magic yourself. Otherwise, what's the point. Want the slime molds to hold your hand all your life?

>>50990258
>Literally what. Currently every race is a "big, public thing" so to speak, and there's still violence and rape between them.
You know what those races don't have? The power to alter reality by waving sticks around. I'm pretty sure that if people knew "these are wizards, these are the sorts of things they can do, literally every single one is capable of it"...well, okay, there probably would be a lot of fear caused by that. But because the wizards wouldn't have to hide themselves, there's nothing anyone could do with that fear. Or at least, there wouldn't be if wizards didn't hide themselves away for no reason long enough for the muggles to develop weapons of mass destruction. Seriously, the idea that bad things would happen to wizards if the masquerade was dropped is entirely the wizards fault for letting it get to that stage.

>>50990145
It's a pretty foolish philosophy.

>>50989019
>Hell, Rowling even stated a muggle with a gun could best a wizard one on one.
I'd think it'd depend on the specifics of the situation.
Close range? Wizard wins. Spells don't seem to move as quickly as bullets, but wands are easier to aim, due to their light weight. And adult wizards can fucking teleport.
Mid range? Depends on who shoots first, I guess.
Long range? I think a sniper rifle trumps just about any humanoid, you know? Doesn't matter if you're magical or not.

>>50989879
Free helicopter tours, friend.

>>50990393
>adult wizards can fucking teleport.
They don't do that in combat, if the books are anything to go by.
They teleport into combat, then stand in one place and fire spells

>>50990344
>Use your oh so sacred conscious mind and find out the existence of magic yourself.
If you do that, the wizards mind wipe you.

>>50990355
So basically they wouldn't be attacked out of fear of their (as yet) superior firepower. What a great start for a relationship. You bet your ass that the second someone invents countermeasures against magic that there's gonna be war. Because no matter how you spin it, wizards are litereally a superior race. No way that's gonna flie with most of humanity.

>>50990344
I can't discover that on my own, because every time I try to, the wizards give me brain damage to erase my memories (and it is brain damage, repeated Obliviation is said to cause serious problems to a person's mind). This isn't the case of me not having gotten something that other have and whining out of frustrated desire, it's the case of an entitled group actively repressing any attempts by the underclass to rise above their station.

>>50990393
See >>50989125

>>50990458
That's exactly my point. Wizards are only in this position because they haven't been taking advantage of their superiority. They've squandered their natural gifts, and if that leads to their destruction they have no one to blame but themselves.

>>50990417
If all it takes is a luck potion to make them competent, they can be trained to do better.

>>50990448

Now, it's been a while since I've read Harry Potter - can non-wizards's actually discover magic or is the access coded into their genes? Because if everyone can discover and manipulate magic then yeah, the wizards are wrong for mindwiping the people. If it's wizards only though, then what's the point? Technology apparently doesn't work with magic, god knows why, and then again, only wizards would be able to operate magi-tech.

Could you convert Tyranids into philosopher's stone? If so, could you draw out the necessary alchemical array with orbital lasers?

Ah, that one. Yeah, I'd go so far as to say that Cursed Child is that bad.

>>50990586
The ability to use magic is genetic, yes. But there are lots of magical things other than wizards, lots of ways for a muggle to discover that magic exists, and then to study it and learn more about the universe from it. There are things that can violate conservation of momentum, for example, I'd say figuring out how that works would be pretty significant. Even if it offers no immediate benefits, it will give us a richer understanding of the world we live in that someday might cascade down to improving our lives. And even if it doesn't do that, discovering the order of the natural world is something that can provide great beauty and wonder to comfort humanity in this oftentimes cold-seeming universe. Wizards would have none of that. Hell, wizards know without a doubt that the soul exists. You don't think it would be nice for the rest of us if we had that reassurance?

Oh yeah, I went full retard there. I was thinking about technology not working at Hogwarts, but that's because of wards or something, I think.

>>50990666
Satan is correct

>>50990661
Supposedly* advanced technology (read as, anything more advanced than a watch) gets fucked up around magic. Which makes no sense, but whatever.

*-according to Hermione who as we all know is a servant to whatever she reads.

>>50990597
I never read Cursed Child.

Was the leaked script actually the real thing? With Voldemort day and Enoby Dementia Dar'kness Raven Way trying to go back in time and waifu him or something?

Good luck, Heavens. You're gonna need it.

Hogwarts is the only place shown to disrupt with technology, and it's a 1000 year old magical castle that regularly has hundreds of magicals inside for most of the year actively practicing magic at all hours of the day.

The Ministry and Diagon Alley are in the middle of London with no negative effects.

>>50990703
Wizards seem to have ways around that, though. The only reason wizards don't have television, according to Rowling, is that muggles intercepting their signals would pose a greater risk to the Statute of Secrecy than just intercepting radio would be.

mount them on quick moving drone fighters set them to beam,tell the AI on board to maintain range and keep moving

it's a Broadway play and it is Cannon.

Yes. But it gets better, pic related. And by better, I mean stupider.

How would one turn the Creepy Doll from Ravenloft into a companion?

>>50990678
And with that comes the reassurance that soul-sucking dementors also exist. There are always two sides to a coin. But as I said before, if muggles don't have the genetic marker for magic, there's no reason for wizards to tell them yet. After they've got some advanced gene manipulation technology, sure. Then everyone could be a wizard. But right now that would only lead to people wanting to get magic for themselves, regardless of morality.
Or maybe I'm just projecting.

>>50990749
C'mon! This can't be real.

>>50990749
I actually kind of like the Trolley Witch being some kind of shapeshifting abomination with deadly candy magic.

Also Hermione is black, despite being portrayed by a white girl in 8 movies over like 10 years.

>>50990586
Magic gene or some bullshit.
It can hide latent in Squib, get passed down through the lines, and pop back up in a 'Muggleborn'.
There's really no rhyme or reason to it.
You'd think at least one wizard would be a little curious how it works, but not even Dumbledore seems to give a shit.

I mean, for how few Squibs there are vs. how many Muggleborns there are, the gene or genes themselves must be fucking with probability to get passed on every time, even when latent. That'd make me worry.

>>50990773
Realer than a heart attack.

>>50990743
Technically, it's not a Broadway play.
Also, fuck you very much Tera, it's not canon.
