The entirety of my knowledge on Touhou comes from https://youtu.be/NUI8dRQOj6w, https://youtu.be/UaFyn0uqxXs, and all the other Chen videos this guy makes. I only know a few of the characters, so I don't really have a "Most hated." Should I just substitute that with least liked?

>>52421488
It says multiple times in the CYOA that power doesn't matter very much and the power tokens don't carry into other sections.

>>52421671
Sure, sounds fine.

>>52421671
Just search for touhou doujins and go crazy for a little while. I hope you like little girls, tentacles, and rape.
>>52421711
I understand that, and I'm doing this out of spite. Spite. How dare this cyoa think I cant perfect a touhou on normal mode.

>>52421729
That is where my knowledge of the few characters I know of other than Chen comes from.

Pietra has nothing to her name but the weapon in the form of her cybernetic arm, but it's more than enough to make her a valuable part of any team.

As part of team MGPI, she can crack safes, skulls, or tanks, should any show up, and also serve as a bagman for absconding with the loot.

Just the one for now. Any and all profits from my shares of the heists will go towards upgrading the other one, and then probably cybernetic legs, as well, for extra carrying capacity and jumping/crushing attacks.

After that, we can start worrying about buying things that don't have to do with kicking ass.

So I guess I can mooch off the vampire lady that thinks we're related while studying magic with an adorable mute itty bitty kitty who likes me. The only downside is that I have an annoying fairy following me. That honestly shouldn't be that bad since I grew up with several siblings and would most likely get lonely without at least one within a few miles of me. Plus Chen supposedly can't talk, so there's that.

I'm actually kind of concerned now that I'm starting to think about this set up. Everyone thinks I'm related to Remilia, but will they think I'm related to Scarlet? Will she recognize that I'm not related to her but am to Remilia? Is that going to be some weird hole in her memory that will lead to suspicion? Will they see that Cirno also thinks shes related to me and think I've done something to change how they think things are? Wouldn't they technically be correct?

Fuck it, I got Chen.

Alright, so I've been struggling with how I was going to approach ship stuff for ages now, and I finally think I've gotten something down that I'm somewhat happy with. The rest of the ship stuff would be organized into weapon module choices, defense module choices, support module choices, ship perks, and crew composition. Let me know if you guys think it's presented far too confusingly and if I should give it more room, etc.
If you were wondering about the inconsistent text for the companions, I took them straight out of ES2's academy and tried to truncate them as much as I could. There's about two pages worth of them.
If you guys want, I'll also post pages 1-4.

>>52422335
How did that happen? Meant to reply to my own post, >>52422273

>>52422335
A small novel might be neat, but I don't expect you to do anything extreme.
We can work towards more robolimbs for you, and I'll look into learning how to fix/maintain them to help out.
Techmouse isn't exactly unstoppable in a fight, so I've gotta help where I can.

Grane popped in out of the sky, and serves as both the magnificent bastard of MGPI, the planner (Plans may seem something a normal person would be insane to attempt, yet work well), and his sword-sized knife (The vorpal blade) is damn sharp.

Not worth a damn for stealth. Or fashion taste. He looks like a clown was raised by a rich 19th century family.

Lucky for you, that is literally the definition of Mantis' power. She isn't that great at anything else, though, so it's a good thing she has Techmouse to help her out.

Two more members of MGPI sound pretty much like gravy at this point; more support would of course be helpful and welcome, but the dynamic duo sounds like a powerhouse.

>>52422497

>>52422346
It looks good, aesthetically, not confusing so far. If you haven't, look at the Stardust CYOA as an example of ship selection in a CYOA done well.

Dungeon of the Endless, Endless Legend and Endless Space 2 have a certain charming quality to them; glad you like it. The Endless CYOA is my first, and I figured that a good way to make myself motivated to finish it is to make a CYOA about something I love!

>>52422534
As you wish. I don't really like posting many WIPs if I can avoid it; it feels like I'm stringing people on with unfinished work.

>>52422538
I remember Stardust; been lurking since the days when Evil Island CYOAs were popular. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Your Cyoa is getting me hyped for Endless space even though I never played any of their games. How are they?

Join the Buddhists, but decide that chanting sutras all day suck. Leave the temple after 10 years, wander around and eventually decide to try for immortality via Daoism. Give up within a few years since the idea of tribulation every century sucks. Finally decide to live with having to rely on external methods and become a full magician.

Naturally, the whole thing is interspersed with a bunch of sex.

>>52422593
Let me know how you guys feel about how I implemented Dust powers, too; I intended for them to be something that you have to invest in, and for it to be very hard to maintain a Dust-powered build without going to the Academy. It also helps to very clearly partition the "power levels" and scale of builds - if you're especially strong, people are going to take notice and you're going to have to do higher-tier and more dangerous/taxing missions at the end of the day.
Also, keep in mind that pricings and the amount of money you start with is NOT final; still have to put in everything before I can get a good feel for it.
>>52422596
Personally, they're my favorite 4x. Endless Space 1 is pretty mediocre, but Endless Legend is REALLY damn good and has a lot of character. Dungeon of the Endless is a weird roguelike/turn based strategy/tower defense hybrid. Endless Space 2 is around the same quality as Endless Legend, but it's not got as much content by virtue of still being in beta.
If I were you, I'd consider first picking Endless Legend up on sale or pirating it to try it out; their presentation is pretty hit-or-miss with people. If you're playing multiplayer, don't pick up the expansions - you use all the content the host of the match has installed, expansions and all. Also, be warned - they are VERY hard to learn without outside support!

I REALLY need feedback on the companions section. Since I took them almost word-for-word from ES2's Academy (Alongside ES/EL for the Vaulters and Sowers), they've got vastly varying description sizes. Though I've tried to truncate them, it's practically impossible to include a lot of them without either making them tiny or making the description boxes huge and adding like one or two more pages to the CYOA. Tell me which you guys would prefer.

>>52422787
Companions are very important. If that's what it takes, add more pages instead of making things smaller. I like the image sizes you have going. I wouldn't mind two or three pages of exclusively companions.

Related note, is "Dust-Dependent" on a future page? I don't see it in the traits, and the dust vampires are noted as gaining it as a racial trait.

>>52422787
>>52422824
I should have waited until the page you just posted finished loading. My bad.

>>52422787
That's all I've done so far; I've already posted the last page in >>52422346
Tell me what you think of it all so far; I still have to add the bulk of the Ship section, the section for Planetary residency and property, and the Missions for each faction. Once the Unfallen get released for Endless Space 2, I'll start working on an Unfallen/Dungeons of the Endless expansion, which should include personal errata like weaponry, equipment, planetside vehicles, etc.

>>52422824
And you've just notified me that I have two different names for that trait mentioned in the CYOA. Thanks!

>>52422860
I was going to mention that, once I double-checked it.

Are you planning on adding concrete mechanical benefits to the companion descriptions, or possibly requiring certain kinds of companions to complete missions? Or are you leaving that more to interpretation?

The companions are looking great anon

>>52422737
I think you should explain offfset and what it does. Does it mean it nullifies a trait, or just weakens?

>>52422943
It cancels it out; so if you, for example, don't want to be a weakling if you picked Sophon, you can foot the Dust bill and be a musclebound deity among Sophons - which, at the end of the day, roughly translates to a normal person's strength. In a similar vein, if you want an extra bit of Dust and don't care about your physical aptitude as a Craver, you could choose Frail and still be strong enough to match a normal person in a fight. Just don't get into any fights with any other nine-foot four-armed cyborg-insects and you'll be fine.

>I actually don't mind the idea of extra tokens for skill, but it doesn't make any sense for fighting game players, casual main game players, and people who mostly like the setting to get bupkiss.
>It's kinda weird that there's no "Gensokyo human" level. If you tone down the existing benefits for liking touhou, you could have that as a small way to make up the difference.
>Doujin is hella expensive. I'm not really into it, but five points is really expensive especially if you want to buy Further Alterations on top of it.
>The names of the Alterations are inconsistent, with formatting varying even in the descriptions of choices.
>How many people does a Headcanon affect by itself? Just one?
>Alterations are really hard to buy into, at 3 points for a single wide-scale Headcanon, and 6 points for something big (even if you don't want 24/7 fucking). You could fix this and simplify it at the same time by replacing the whole section with something like "-1 per change, -1 if the change affects more than 5 people, and -1 for exceeding these limits. Lewd changes must have the appropriate world alteration."

>The Self Bonuses are actually very well done (not giving too much value, and can be bought cheaply), but it just exacerbates the dearth of coins for non-touhou players. Also, make the minor boon purchaseable as well - either as a package deal with the house or by itself (though they might not be worth a whole token as they are).
>Buddhist Monk's formatting is different than both Grimhou and the drawbacks. You might want to standardize it.
>Waifu is pretty expensive. Is that just to discourage polygamy?
>The drawbacks are... harsh. Despite the few points goven, there might be one or two worth taking under any circumstance. Also, why are they all focused on a character? You could have magical misfires or a disproportionate libido give points, and that's just offhand.

If you care about my opinion, I'd change it to
>10 starting points
>Up to 6 power points, 3 from actual skill and 3 from miscellaneous Touhou feats (spending money on it, knowing the setting before reading the CYOA, etc).

>Streamlined Further Alterations, with more straightforward costs

The dude's got a crappy social life, as his family is most well-known for hunting down criminals and the rare rogue Hunter, the fact that he isn't afraid to use his money nearly all the time doesn't help either.

Spoken like a true Vodyani. May you bring death to the Heretic and all of his perverse flock!

As for the Arks, there's only going to be one way to acquisition them, and it's going to deal with the highest tier Vodyani mission. If you really want to spoil it for yourself, it's the Great Penance. The Church of the Virtual Saints has finally found the Heretic: at the head of a great and powerful navy rivaling that of the Church's own. Preaching his lies and claiming there is a path to life without the harvesting of lesser species, the time for his reckoning has come. There are two paths to this mission: either fight alongside your original employers and stamp out the last hope for the redemption of the Vodyani people, or be a turncoat and destroy the Church that would elevate the Vodyani to godlike power.
The reward for staying loyal is a Vodyani people with the power of gods let loose on the galaxy. If you weren't already a Vodyani, you will be deemed worthy and converted into one instead of being harvested for essence. You are also given control over a Vodyani Ark, though it's far more like serving as a planetary governor than owning a weapon of mass destruction; they house all of the Vodyani civilians that still exist.
If you side with the Heretic, congrats, you just saved the galaxy. The Church is abolished, and anyone who's ever lost family or friends to a Vodyani abduction will treat you like a king.

>>52423178
The loyalty is implied with the individuals spells, not vampirism, so I don't see why it would, though it is odd to think you can create thralls with non-vampire blood

>>52423258
Heeeeeeeeeheheheheheheheheheh. With Mantis' semblance, she can launch herself off the motorcycle, smash through a wall with all that momentum, taking damage, and IMMEDIATELY start the fight with a massive strength boost.

NOTHING CAN STOP THE MANTIS SHRIMP! ALL BOW TO THE MAGPIE!

>>52423280
Tempting, tempting... The problem with joining the Heretic is that vampirism is still the most fun and easy way to gain dust. I'm sure his alternate way works fine, but vampirism is fun, man. Death to the Heretic! Death to the non-Vodyani! All bow to the power of the Virtual Gods and their Vodyani Saints!

>>52423065
Author here, thank you for the feedback, but I've said time and time again that you only need to drop 1-2 tokens into powerlevel for any non-power based build. If I do do a revision, I think I'd probably do 10 starting points, plus trying to make it more clear that taking Doujin mostly nullifies the threat of being (non-sexually) attacked so that lewd builds can just take male outsider. Further alterations is a little clunky, but it does specify multiple times that changes can be applied to one touhou, all touhous, or multiple; and I can't really be bothered redoing the whole section. Also most of the drawbacks are based on fanon memes due to the whole "persistent ideas are influencing gensokyo" thing, though I guess thats not completely clear.

I may do a revision at some point soon but it would probably be a fairly minor one.

I dunno anon, Horatio IS the Ultimate Lifeform after all. He's also beautiful. And smart. And funny, and complex, and wise - really, his blessings are too numerous to count.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=exRFQXX3oeg
He'll also be a hell of a lot more perfect once he disposes of the first batch of clones that were a bit too authentic to follow orders. After they're gone, he'll be free to make his second-class non-Horatio citizens disappear in the night, harvesting their genetic material to splice into his beautiful Horatio clones to turn all Horatio into the ultimate species. Hell, once he's done with that, he might even invent a way to alter alien species so much on a genetic level that they'll be Horatio themselves!

But really though, whoever does the faction intro cutscenes at Amplitude deserves a fucking raise. They're all amazing!

>>52423481
Horatio Prime can ascend into a Vodyani Cloth. The rest of the Horatio can be harvested for vast quantities of dust. He will be shown the true meaning of perfection.

I had to wiki it, but it's a "One complete clear" - that is, finishing the entire game without using the Continue option. Some people nitpick even further with only being able to use the default number of lives.

That is some staggering autism. I'll get a build done right away.

>>52423481
I just finished watching ALL the prologues. Once we ascend from our mortal Cloths and join the Virtuals in the Endless, we will find a way to return the Riftborn to their world and seal the rift behind them. They're sweet things, and we have more than enough people of our own to harvest. We should start with the Cravers, because really, those were kind of a mistake on the part of the Virtuals.

What, 1cc a Touhou game? It's not especially difficult on Normal unless you've never played a bullet hell game before, and on Easy it's, well, easy. Above that it can get challenging.

Besides, you have to 1cc on at least Normal to get a good ending in Touhou games. Easy nets you a bad/incomplete ending, and you don't even get to play the last stage in 6 if you play it on Easy.

>Author here, thank you for the feedback, but I've said time and time again that you only need to drop 1-2 tokens into powerlevel for any non-power based build.
But, for the most part, that isn't *fun*. People like standing out, which would require a Strong Youkai. It might not be entirely logical, but picking one of the cheapest options in a list of ten does have psychological effect - instead of "barely strong enough to matter", it's "two steps above a 'practical death sentence'".
Also, do you have any comments on my slightly cheesy Half-Youkai double magician? Estimated power level? Flaws?
>If I do do a revision, I think I'd probably do 10 starting points, plus trying to make it more clear that taking Doujin mostly nullifies the threat of being (non-sexually) attacked so that lewd builds can just take male outsider.

>Further alterations is a little clunky, but it does specify multiple times that changes can be applied to one touhou, all touhous, or multiple; and I can't really be bothered redoing the whole section.
It only mentions those in the Magical Realms (which are upgrades); the Headcanon options never say how many Touhous they affect.
>Also most of the drawbacks are based on fanon memes due to the whole "persistent ideas are influencing gensokyo" thing, though I guess thats not completely clear.
It's kinda obvious, what with you mentioning the same things in the Headcanon(Personality) section and all. It's just kinda bad drawback design.

I still have no idea how people are even remotely able to do that. I guess shmups are just beyond my ken, but no matter how many times I try, it just seems physically impossible unless you're some kind of freaky Newtype. Oh well.

Um. I'd like to address some posts that I couldn't respond to in the previous thread regarding the Tank Crew WIP.

Firstly, there were two anons who advocated for a distinction between "medium" and "heavy" tanks. I realise I addressed this back when I posted the original WIP, but it bears repeating; as someone with extremely limited military knowledge, I see very little functional difference between a medium tank and a heavy tank, or at least, none that would make any mechanical difference in this CYOA; hence why I rolled them into one "Battle Tank" umbrella category. Please understand.

Next, one Anon expressed interest in seeing more tank variants. While I did like the sound of their suggestions, I can only fit so much on one page, and early on it was suggested to me to try and keep choices simple. This is why I've made efforts to try and make each type as vague and inclusive as possible. Picking one option out of six is going to be a lot faster and less patience-consuming than one out of ten, and you haven't even gotten to the waifus yet.

One last thing that sort of encompasses all of this; the stats given for each tank type are not the final values you will have; the page 2 upgrades and the page 3 crew members will have a much stronger effect on your tank's abilities and stat values. If you pick a tank type but feel unhappy with how it's presented, you can always take choices that will bring it more in line with your perfect vision of a Big Dick War Machine. Besides, this is a CYOA about your Tank CREW; they are the most important deciding factor on your tank's abilities, not it's design.

But I've rambled and reasoned enough. Time for me to get back to work.

>Drawbacks
Drunk Suika (+1) Get a free token for partying with an oni. Where are the downsides?
Annoying Komeiji (+2) So all I have to do is shoo her away before she says something embarrassing. Not too bad.
Brat Cirno (+2) I do have siblings, but none of them happens to be a cute ice fairy.
Smug Kogasa (+3) Give the poor karakasa obake a reason to live. And even if I won't be able to beat her up, someone else will.
Klepto Marisa (+2) She actually returns most of the stolen things? At least she isn't "borrowing them until her death".
Yandere (+3) I don't really have a most hated Touhou, although there are some I like less than the others. Yoshika Miyako (how can a magically controlled corpse feel love? I guess Seiga may be behind this), Rumia, Mamizou, Yorihime and her sister, and maybe a couple of others. I better watch out for any of these girls.
Reimu dislikes you (+1) Not surprising, considering she doesn't trust non-humans. I may be able to offset this by offering financial help, though.
Voyeur Aya (+1) Annoying, but she doesn't have the Kogasa immunity, which means I can kick her ass to my heart's content. Also, I could probably cooperate with Hatate to drive her newspaper out of business.
>Gender
Girl (Free) Keeping my male privilege is expensive. Regardless, I'm sure I could regain my original gender with the help of someone like Yukari.

Derrick. Just Derrick.
16 year old Human male.
Outlaw (-10). From an outlying bandit clan, Derrick's family scraped together enough Lien for him to attend Haven Academy.

Aura: Burnt Orange.
Semblance: Witch. He's telekinetic.

Gifts: Intelligence, Memory, Strength
Talents: Engineering

Weapon: Cybernetic Arm (Dust Mod, Blaster Aug)
Gear: Scroll, Dust Charges

A mechanical genius and gadget-man. The rest of his bandit clan never respected his technical skills outside repairing their weapons. When a Grimm attack left him without one arm and many other clan members dead, he cobbled together crude cybernetics to get the bandits on their feet again. While primitive by Atlas standards, these mechanical limbs are impressive considering how little Derrick had to work with. His views are forcing his clan to modernize and they've sent him to Haven to learn as much about cutting edge tech as he can, to bring it back and better arm them.

In combat, Derrick relies on his telekinesis to clinch and hold targets so he can get close and fire his blaster directly into unprotected weak spots. A brawler with a bit of a sadistic streak, he has no problems with crippling human foes. He cares only for his family.

Finally the scientist should be able to help me understand my symbiote, and help me if I end up taking some serious injury, I am on the run afterall.

That's the idea. Any powers you get from racial bonuses, however, don't unlock the tier for them; they just work without the unlock. I'm trying to balance it so that people with Dust powers, since they are considerably stronger than their non-Dust-infused peers, must either attend the Academy or take a number of drawbacks to afford it. That way it balances out builds and leads to potentially more interesting builds and characters.

The first page, >>52422593. Right now, the only major faction choice that has a racial Dust power is the Vodyani, who start with "Dust Vampirism". In previous editions I included Amoeba among the starting races, but a dearth of art for them caused me to drop them in favor of the Riftborn once they were released. While they were still in the running, they started with both "Mind-Meld" and "Astral Projection" and gained one companion, but suffered from "Frail" and "Combat Intolerant".
Hell, the only reason the Vaulters are still an option as a major faction is because they have a stupid amount of art - what with being in every Endless game and all. That, and they have a pretty clear and well-defined faction identity/I have a pretty good idea of what their missions would be.

>Depends on how you want to fluff it. In the canon, magicians can reach Overpowered if they try hard enough, though it usually takes a long time depending on talent.

>Drawbacks [+3]: Brat Cirno, Drunk Suika

MageQuest! I'll become friends with Marisa and leech off of her training if she'll let me. Sure fairies aren't strong, but I'll become stronger through magic anyways. The only problem is Suika keeps coming over drunk. I might get caught in perpetual parties this way.

Cirno is my older sister, but it's like the roles are reversed especially since everyone thinks of me as the slightly cooler headed one (haha get it). We have a bit of a rivalry going and we fight a lot, but we're still family.

Komeji. I like... a mix of a lot of things on this list. Might be wankery, but i'll say "everything", considering there's nothing I dislike about her and she's just the best.

Drawbacks:
Klepto Marisa

Drunk Suika

Considering my real sibling is terrible, she actually seems much better. And it's not like Marisa takes my stuff forever.

You goddamn liar.

Also, Archivist is a bit overpowered - it lets you skip the stat requirements for four Terrors (Talon, Bone & Skin, and Primeval Dragon from Tasks, and Moonlake Bard from the skill), as well as giving the absolute best skill - Transcend gives +9 stat points like Vigilance and Conditioning, but it also unlocks two elements besides.

Basically, I went magic + rogue. Specializing in speed and casting while moving. Summons and all sorts of elemental magic along with my dual wielding and speed. Of course, I've got the physical strength to back it up.

Companions, I get 2 + 2 for Elo + 2 companion creatures for Taming

Alchemist Targas. I could use some enchanted weapons and perhaps poisons.

Morris The Fool. I need a good tank.

Yadima The Pale, being our range main. Plus, puppers.

Enyala and Hastur. Golems and magic and stuff. Both tanking and support.

My permanent pets will be the Mountain Runner and the Nocturnal Drake. The two strongest things I can keep. at this point. Since Ill only ride 1 at a time, Ill only give myself 1x stat boost.

I dont specifically see why I have to fight terrors since they dont actually give me anything, But I can just kill Soul of Alma since I have both speed and cast and dancer.

To be honest, I don't feel the need to pick up the drawbacks - 16 points is pretty good - but I really wish they would be interesting or more appropriate instead of shitty memes and secondary bullshit.

>>52425039
>I dont specifically see why I have to fight terrors since they dont actually give me anything
Aside from having planned the CYOA in a way in which Terror hunts are the goal, killing a Terror, within the world of the CYOA, means unbelievable amounts of fame and all that comes with it. I gotta add that to the intro blurb.
You could also try to make them your rides. Whether or not that'd fly is, well, arguable.
>I dont know how many we're allowed to take so ill just take 4
You can take up to 10 years. One thing you could do is work for 3 years, take on whichever Terror, work for 1 more year and take on another and so on. It wouldn't change the failure chance, though. I am conflicted on wether to change that or not. I am also looking for a way to discourage working 10 years first and then taking on all Terrors, although I am conflicted on whether I'll add it or not.

>>52421418
I'm not up to snuff on my 2hus, whos what as the overpowered profile?

>>52425223
Ok, so that's good. Knowing I can work for 10 years will force me to think about repeating jobs or whatever. It does seem weird to me how winning against a terror actually makes you less likely to win the next one though. But I get you. At least there's some incentive there to win one or two extra for the story.

>I am also looking for a way to discourage working 10 years first and then taking on all Terrors, although I am conflicted on whether I'll add it or not.
It makes no sense, but it also doesn't change anything since stats have no effect on survival, so I'm not sure why some one would bother doing that (other then organizing it that way for readability), or why you'd bother fixing it.

>>52423935
Drachman, born in Galata.
Proficient in Tome, Communion, Traps, Rapier, and explosives.

Skills: Lifecraft, which is the only reason I took explosives instead of some kind of armor.
I guess I also take quickening. Everything has such fucking high requirements that I can't afford anything since the only other stat that I minmaxed was eloquence, which gets me nothing. But at least that bonus bumps me up to afford magic.
I can now afford magic. So I take summoning for my lifeshaping.
Elemental magic bootstraps me up to training and Transcend. Since there's not much left in casting, I train in finesse and only ascend in casting.
That unlocks traps, which unlocks the muffled walk.
Finally, I still have access to alchemy and taming, both of which should supplement my life crafting nicely.

Forest Guardian and Stormcaller will be my companions.

Caravaneering seems like a good job. I reckon it can transition okay into slaving. After that work in the public sector, it's worth going as an explorer for a while, and putting my traveling skills to a greater challenve.

With the powers I've got, I'm uniquely suited to combat drought, so I do.

And that's an end, so that's as much time as I'm putting into this.

>>52425223
Also, is there any reason why Archivist (19 points, unlocks four Terrors, and two spell elements) is better than, say, Duelist (avg. 5.5 points, unlocks one Terror, and an upgrade that's useless against nonhumanoids)?

>>52425343
>it does seem weird to me how winning against a terror actually makes you less likely to win the next one
Defeating a Terror is a feat not many would be able to achieve. Defeating many Terrors is something that borders on divinity, but taking down one will affect you in one way or another. The way I personally pictured it is that whether you'd win or not would come down to mostly luck, and the more Terrors you fight, the more you're pushing your luck, and at some point it may just give out.
>>52425363
That is, frankly, a fat fucking oversight that went over my head like a 747 at low altitude. I WILL be changing that one now that I've noticed it.

So I am a weak male fairy that is Yukarin's son. I have magic as a "job" but I mostly subsist off of food from the food generator and browse the internet all day. I have a big house with a servant, and I also have Chen as my Yandere slave. I will always be annoyed by Cirno, Kogasa, Suika and Komeji. Also I have bottomless sake that I don't drink myself. I'll just use it to make Suika bug off I guess?

Sounds comfy. I'll see if I can get my mother to protect me in a different dimension or something.

Keep in mind that some of the drawbacks arbitrarily buff the related Touhou. Also, Yukari is both not likely to protect you all the time nor able to do so. Suika's at about the same level, and neither of them are the strongest characters in Gensokyo.

I'm not sure I like how open ended the last two sections are. It gives me sort of an anticlimactic end to an otherwise really epic story. I don't know what becomes of me and my party after I finish killing a Terror, there's no real wrap up or conclusion. I also don't really like that tasks are basically just a way to pad your stats with no repercussions--You don't have to sacrifice anything or choose which ones you really want to do, you just pick what gives the most stats with the least rolling and you're on your way. I really liked the CYOA, but the ending feels a bit off to me.

Aside from people being able to physically walk to her house, Cirno and Kogasa are chumps (relatively speaking, as Cirno is still the strongest fairy), and Chen doesn't have any real power unless she's acting on orders (and thus borrowing power from her master), but Satori could get around if she wants to. Suika is already comparable to Yukari so the point here isn't that Suika is buffed (she's not) but that Yukari isn't (unless you take the drawback, which would make things better in convincing her to help you get away, but worse in actually enjoying that away time).

Also, you won't have the ability to gather materials and study magic if you hide away in Yukari's house.

You should be safe. Pro tip: ignoring what people tell you about touhou power levels is almost always for the best, as they are likely fanwanking or parroting what they heard from other fanwankers. There is no definitive "strongest" or "weakest" character, you're better off deciding how things work out on your own.

>>52426486
Theoretically, Ran can be as strong as Yukari when acting exactly according to her will, and theoretically, Chen can be as strong as Ran when acting exactly according to her will, or at least as far as I recall. In practice, she's not too hot, though. I mean, enough to tear through you, but you're just a fairy so that's not strange or anything.

You doing this on purpose so I keep slapping you, pervert?!

>>52426637
Oh man, now it's even harder to choose. All these new options are really good in their own ways. Thanks dude!

>>52423981
How would you say the stat points scale?

For example, functional casting ability seems to start at 10 points, and a full Magic skill tree would put you at minimum 15. If one were to specialize in every casting related skill and take all relevant proficiencies, they would be at a minimum of 29 points in casting. Job bonuses seem a bit out of balance with character creation, but we'll try to scale it with that as well.

Seems then that the scaling might be:
>0-9 points = no proficiency
>10-19 points = basic ability (apprentice, fireballs)
>20-29 points = trained but unspecialized, up to lower level professional (journeyman, streams of fire)
>30-39 points = specialized, up to higher level professional (master, tank-shot equivalent)
>40-49 points = highly specialized, probably somewhat well-known (expert, small bomb equivalent)
>50-59 points = personalized magic, small-scale celebrity (genius, firestorm equivalent)
>60+ points, ranges from sustained airstrike to summoning the moon one mile above an enemy city (I'm looking at you, Mr. 124 Casting)

I think that's a fair scale, since magic gives you quite an advantage it only makes sense that you have to invest quite a bit to reach Terror-slaying levels.

As for the other stats, maybe
0-9 (inconsequential, any random NPC in the marketplace)
10-19 (low, random encounter mook)
20-29 (medium, solo encounter or endgame mook)
30-39 (high, end-game solo encounter)
40-49 (extreme, miniboss)
50+ (boss-mode)

Also I assume that for Training the option is supposed to be 12 Finesse, not 2?

>>52426637
I like these. If you're going to include more, please think of including a way to leave Earth for a more interesting world. Lots of these options don't really shine in our magicless, boring world.

Blood minions seem rather useful for infiltration, with the exception of the Haeihounds.

Vampires are products of haemomancy anyway, so even if you don't go for a vampiric immortality, you're still their creator.

>>52419596
That art style seems familiar! OP if you're still there, does this fit into the same setting where you're the last survivor of a cataclysm and you have to decide both what the new world will look like, and how deeply you are intertwined with it?

I should really clear one of the tohou games on the highest difficult with only one coin, I need that extra five tokens to pick Waifu: Yuuka.

Well, even without, my magic will eventually grow strong enough to stop her from hurting me r-right? Or I can just drink myself into a sake induced coma when she comes visiting.

Will my magic break Yuuka first, or she will break me first, only one way to find out.

>>52421418

>>52427268

Wait, shouldn't Battleship be Large with Carriers, and it's place in the medium category be replaced with Cruisers?

Or does the base game itself have bad terminology for ship sizes?

Plan is to become incredibly powerful sorceress and use a staff that's also a spear to cast spells and fight with quickness and finesse instead of strength and lots of magic of course. Will learn how to summon the Primeval Dragon by listening in on the conversations of adventurers while working as a dancer, which will also help me be quick and graceful. Once the dragon is slain, goal is to quest to find the secret to eternal beauty and youth and become immortal sexy sorceress. My companions might also be interested in this quest and join me.

I'm going to VERY STRONGLY suggest that you start with Touhou 06 Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil. It's a good way for beginner to get started on Touhou, though it is a little dated. If you want to just 1CC and not earn your wings by being a Casual, Touhou 10 Mountain of Faith is what fans of the games consider "Easy Mode".

DO NOT PLAY TOUHOU 11 SUBTERRANEAN ANIMISM. YOU WILL BE DESTROYED.

>>52426731
It works like how it looks in the image for it; your target must be defenseless, and you very slowly drain them dry with cool blue-yellow effects. If you're need Dust to live (Like a Broken Lord or Vodyani) it will first sate your need, after that it accumulates. I'll leave it up to personal interpretation how that looks. This continues until the victim is a dried up, lifeless husk. You can make mad dosh, and you're going to have to store the dust in canisters or something; the stuff's got the consistency of sand. Plus, you have the whole issue of it being incredibly evil and abhorrent; even the Vodyani Church of the Virtual Saints doesn't let you just do it all the time, though that's more to discourage gluttony and wasting resources than any moral dilemma.

>>52427703
The latter. If it bothers you guys too much, I can just rename Battleships to Cruisers.

Ivi would be lying if she said she knew what she was doing after falling from the sky but lying long enough to get in and out of places she doesn’t belong at breakneck speeds is what she excels at and Ivi revels in it. Having lied convincingly enough to enrol in Atlas, Ivi has half convinced herself that she is indeed a ninja in training sent here to sharpen her skills to kill a rare Grimm and has modified her uniform accordingly.

Never shuts up about how “cool” she is or of the terrifying might of her fabricated Grimm, it seems to grow more terrifying after every retelling.

>>52428004
Amazing job on this. Got a few I'd like clarified:

From my reading of it, if we want *all* the dust powers, it would cost 1600 Dust. Is this right?

How are Vodyani treated by the rest of the galaxy? Can't imagine a race that needs to constantly feed on others being very welcome anywhere so I'd love some more info on their lore.

>>52427351
Nah it's one continue clear.

You can use the default stock of lives (or more, if you don't mind the score hit and puritans' judgement), but that's still like three to nine plus whatever you find on the way.

>List of errors/clarifications/suggestions:

Page 1

The first sentence under races just states these are inhabitants and doesn't implicitly say you had to choose which race you will be. Furthermore, it would probably help to clarify this by leading in from your introduction what I am doing for this cyoa to help guide readers, for a quick example: ("this is where you come in anon, you are an inhabitant of this world”, “You are reborn in this world what path you choose is up to you") I know what I’m saying is really cheesy and generic but I’m just using these to clarify what I mean by leading in to the cyoa. Right now its just a descriptive text at the beginning and then the reader is left to assume that he has to make a character, but not directly told and in what fashion. Am I and adventurer? A hero? A civilian?

Every race but darkskins has a total of 64 stat points. Darkskins have 65. I dont know if this is intended or not.

Under races

Goldstrand Elves

…rebe[ll]ion happened…
…Darkskin elves are forbidden to enter their refuge

Darkskins elves

[Being] strong, agile, and capable of surviving [most] environments makes them able sailors.

Nightward Elves

…runes they in[s]cribe…
…live in a matriarc[h]al….
...for thie[ve]s and other…

Commentary: I’m unsure what you mean when you say there’s barely any crime. Is this a place that thieves frequent but do not commit crime? Or perhaps thieves frequent with ill intentions but the lands are policed well? This confusion is from calling their settlements “hunting grounds” for thieves, yet imply in your last sentence that there is no crime.

cont

>>52428601

cont

Azrha

…but be[ll]igerent…
…in a patriarc[h]al…

Commentary: You mentioned they were also hated for other reasons, perhaps expand a little on this. Is the raiding historically in the past or continuous policy in the present? I’m assuming its historical or there would be more conflicts between the people of Sadira.

Vecator

Commentary: If they are blind how do they get around? Do they have other senses that are enhanced? Perhaps you can expound on this as blindness seems to be a very big disadvantage, especially if you’re a spellcaster, that most people are not willing to have (let alone being reptilian lol). Maybe get rid of the disadvantage altogether or perhaps make them light sensitive rather than blind (cloaks make sense then).

You should take headcanon:personality and make it your headcanon that all the girl are trans. Then just wait for them to use magic to perfectly transition.

This will only cost you one point and all the girls will become boys.

>>52428296
Something to note about the Vodyani is that they don't necessarily HAVE to drain people to survive; they can still get by via the very slow, painstaking, unfulfilling consumption of Dust normally. It's just that the Church of the Virtual Saints actively endorses such behavior, and the VAST majority (98+%) of Vodyani in the galaxy are a part of the Church, living on Arks. Due to this, most rival power structures, such as the United Empire, actively encourage and support Vodyani citizens, as the only citizens more efficient and effective than them are the Riftborn and Cravers (Though the latter is not good for the planet in the long term).
The general populace and some of the more touchy-feely governments, like the decentralized, isolationist Vaulter Clans and the Four Families, despise the Vodyani as a people for three primary reasons: that they are by and large amoral, racist, predatory slavers that regularly raid them, when they AREN'T slavers they demand higher Dust pay due to their "special diet", and their reproduction involves converting a non-Vodyani with the Cloth (Their suits), losing their memories and personalities. Only one Vodyani, Varb St Rouiena, has reclaimed his memories, and that was because of the Virtual that inhabited his Cloth and elevated him to Living Sainthood.
>>52428429
You'll actively bleed Dust due to the fact that you will have at least one T1 Dust power if you purchase any Dust power. If you want to save Dust to use for later, you'll store it like you would store it as money: small canisters just small enough to fit in your palm.
