/cyoag/ - CYOA General

I got some time today to make a CYOA. Got any ideas?

>Dark Portal (Instant Portal): "body guards" should be one word
>Soul Trap: "dispeled"
>Soul Trap (Dark Ark): "owner" should probably be "opener"
>Possession: might want to rearrange the sentence from "ritual on [target] that takes [time]" to "ritual that takes [time] on [target]"
>Possession (Long Con): "sewing" should be "sowing"
>Allure (Love Slave): "posession"
>Allure (Overflow): "in midst of" should be "in the midst of"
>Vitality: "lot limb"
>Pain Network: "for use"
>Training: "spent" should be "spend"
>Training (Quick Learning): "masive"; "they're be"
>Juggernaut: superfluous comma in "hulking, humanoids"; "bulets"
>Thorn Turtles: "prety"
Typos and such aside, how does a Dynamo move about, exactly?

>>53142063
What's that vague discolored text-looking thing in the background (right below the first text box) say?

How do I do this? Please help.

>>53142178
It seems to be just stuff from the Defenders of Humanity CYOA.
>>53142182
Look up tutorials for whichever editor you want to try out. There should be some photoshop-specific tips by SDA in the pastebin.
Alternatively, you could hop on over to the Discord and ask someone there to teach you.

>>53142182
1) Always use photoshop
2) Learn to create images and adjust the canvas/image size
3) Learn about layers, dragging and placing images in, and cropping
4) learn about the text tool
5) (opt) learn about layer effects
6) ???
7) profit!!!

>>53142327
I know all those things, but I don't know how to make pretty boxes that are all the same size and in nice even rows and all those little effects that make it not look like dogshit.

Reposting. Kinda surpirsed that the Consortation school isn't more popular, what with the maids and all, but I've been liking the builds so far.

>>53142115
some kind of escape cyoa e.g. from prison or serial killer's basement

>>53142352
>how to make pretty boxes that are all the same size
Just make one box and then duplicate the layer, dummy.
>in nice even rows
Move things with the arrow keys to get them autistically correct. Or crop/delete parts of the images so they fit. Also, holding shift while mouse dragging things makes it only move on one axis.
> all those little effects that make it not look like dogshit.
90% of what you see in cyoas is just clever application of Strokes, Outer Glows, and maybe layer masks + gradients for fadeouts if things are getting fancy. Even if you feel like you cant do it, images + solid colour background + text is perfectly acceptable as long as your color choices are good.

>>53142397
>>53142115
Escape from your mom's basement.

>>53142406
Don't forget punch through layers and shit. Plus rendering a quick background of clouds or such are a very easy way to make your CYOA look good.

A pretty neat little CYOA anon. The only critiques I can think of are I think you're a bit too generous with points, it feels a little too easy to have lots of good stuff without any drawbacks.

Haven't seen this in a while, but its one of my favourites for the potential companions alone.

>>53142630
Yes, anon. I am illiterate. That's the only explanation for why I don't want to read twenty pages of red/orange text, in a small font, with shitloads of words per line.
It definitely isn't because he vomited words or he's poor at formatting or being concise.

>>53142641
You forgot to pick your fifth item (one for free, plus one for being male, plus three for having three mastered magics).

>>53142590
>>53142695
Your words about words are tempting me to post something with even more words.

>>53142709
So I did. I can't even think what I'd take though, I already felt like I was getting too much

Its a matter of preference of course but I'd prefer it if I had to make some hard choices, as it is its very easy to have multiple immortality redundancies, getting just one should be an investment.

>>53142728
Is that supposed to be a jab at me? I'm not bothering with you posting something that isn't rewarding for me to read.

>>53142063
> being the girl is mandatory

Quite frankly I really don't give a shit of you want to be the girl, are into traps, even full on dig scat.

But I loathe when people try to force things like that into everything, especially on CYOAS

>>53142799

Sure does suck that the hut doesn't have indoor plumbing, but it's nothing that can't be fixed. I might even make a few more improvements beyond that... I'll need a place to grow all the potion reagents I can, after all, and a pool would be really nice to have too.

It's up to the maker what fits/makes sense in their setting. If you don't like it make your own 'hive king' CYOA or whatever, you fucking Termite.

>volcanic, floating islands, pocket dimension
Realm is bunch of floating volcanic islands. The lava comes from a magical pocket dimension. They erupt sometimes, but the capital is built around this problem, so it's always changing and can be very dangerous! Volcanic soil means there's places that are very fertile so there's lots of food.

>surface deposits cavern network, ancient ruins
Floating islands are connected by portals and are filled with caves that have ancient ruins and treasures and dangerous creatures! And there's lots of metals for the Kobolds to mine so we can make tools and weapons and stuff.

>elves, kobolds, dryads
Elves live in cities on top of floating islands and are best subjects. Kobolds live in caves and take care of labor. Since volcanic areas are fertile, there are groves of trees in the places where there isn't to much eruptions and lava. Dryads live in these places and are mysterious and wise with powerful magic. I ask them for advise sometimes.

>city walls, temple, sanitation, shipwright
Extra choice because perils. Kobolds take care of sanitation and every city has walls and shipwrights for protection and making airships. Capital has giant temple so hopefully pantheon likes me.

>improved metallurgy, chemistry, mechanical wings, airships
Extra choices because perils. Since floating islands aren't connected, we need airships. Lots of heavy armored knights and canons because fallen Queen, cult, and dragon. We can send messages between floating islands with messengers with mechanical wings.

>elemental magic, charismatic, true adept, secrets of the old ones
Extra choice because perils. Basically be powerful Sorceress Empress.

>fallen queen, cult, dragon
Lots of danger in this realm! As Empress I'd try to improve my magic skills as I hunt down the cult with my followers. Eventually I'll want to defeat the fallen queen and absorb her power so I can defeat the dragon!

>>53142948
Well, while I won't give an official apology on the grounds of me being a douche consider this the unofficial apology

Nah, I'd go for something more action-oriented. Maybe a modern soldier in high fantasy cyoa or something.

>>53142692
Going to post a very old build I had for this
>Human
>Skirmisher
>Elven Mace
>Chimera Hide Armor
Basically a pretty solid but standard mace fighter with a weapon that reks undead and extra solid armor.

For companions:
>Bianco Darkfyre, half angel half demon mary sue
I've actually got a pretty good tolerance for this kind of thing in real life barring the odd rolled eye, and she's easy on the eyes and powerful
>Vermach, undead guardian
Just a really cool guy; can probably teach me to be a better fight, and probably knows a thing or two about fighting undead being one himself (which is important for reasons)
>Gannibal, tactician
The big drawback here is him taking over the party. But honestly, I don't mind! He's a better leader than I am anyway and frankly it seems like a lot of work and hassle I don't need. I'm happy to follow orders as rest of the party is a bit odd I'd probably slip nicely into the role of lieutenant.
>Semellore, dragonkin cleric
Probably the weakest link, but I'm putting together this specific party for a reason.

>Western Empire
>Ariana de Muerte

And this is why I put this team together. Normally in CYOAs I tend to err on the side of these challenges being more difficult than they sound, but this one should be in the bag. Myself, Bianco and Semellore (assuming standard cleric abilities) should all be very effective against the undead, and I imagine Vermach would be able to both infiltrate and advise us on how to be even better. But the real edge here is that Gannibal should run rings around the inexperienced necromancer, and with the Western Kingdoms full of well trained and equipped soldiers to draw upon I bet we can defeat her and her horde before they really take root.

Sure, it'll be more Gannibal's win then mine, but I'm sure there'll be money and glory enough in it for me too.

>>53143102
wat

>>53142359
Sure, I'll do a Consortation build. Not Consortation 5, mins. I don't like dealing in souls.

Sorceress
Charms 5
Consortation 4
Alchemy 4
Item: Potion of Witchery

Primarily a Charms/Alchemy build, but Consortation gets me access to Mammon, who will get me all kinds of useful potion ingredients for only thrice the price. Isn't it a good thing I can make Level 5 Luck charms to pay him with?

>>53143142
I think what anon is trying to say is to save images as PNG's even if they become too big to post?

>>53142063
God damn it if Ravager isn't my favorite CYOA. Just letting you know in case you're reading this, author - you're awesome.

bbbut I just started learning paintnet and youre telling me to get gimp or photoshopppppp

>>53143240
>paint.net
Don't do it anon

>>53143232
I mean I like it too but there's a lot of other CYOAs out there.

>>53143248
I keep seeing people saying that paint.net is shit and I cannot understand why. The only bad thing about it is horrible text editing, and it isn't much of a problem.
Personally, I always used paint.net for my CYOAs and it worked really nice for me, so what is so bad about it that people turn novices away from it?

>>53143253
There sure are many great CYOA, but this one is my favorite. I think that what makes it special in comparison to others is the existence of Defender, since it gives Ravager lot of perspective.

>>53142359
>Witch (Male)
I was going to make a Sorceress build, but I got really starved for those few extra points.

>Potions 5
>Charms 5
>Transmutation 5
Really synergistic, once you think about it. Counterfeit doesn't copy magical effects, but it doesn't say it has different properties - so once you have, say, a bar of gold, you can just Counterfeit more of them instead of buying them.

They're still limited by the amount of blood you have, though that can be fixed by using a Shape-Shifter potion to become a very large person yesImeanwoman, and relying on Charms of subtlety and luck (level 5 of each can basically work miracles) to go outside.

>Wand
>Charm Charms
>Witch Hut
>Necronomicon
The charms are to get started, the Witch Hut is for privacy (though I live on the plains - does it come with attached forest?), the Wand is for equivalent exchange, and the Necronomicon is because I had an item left over and it seemed better than level 1 Catmancy.

>>53142709
>three for having three mastered magics
>beyond the first
It's fucking bolded, and people like you still miss it.
You get ONE item for every mastered magic (minimum one), plus another one for being male.

>>53143315
Why watch a movie on a 10 inch screen when you can watch it on a 40 inch?
Paint.net is baby's first image editor. It is not powerful, it has a low skill ceiling. Everything it can do, Photoshop can do but better.
There's no point in using inferior software.

>>53143377
>Shape-Shifter Potion
>No matter what you look like, you still retain some elements of your witch type
Hope you're up for being a very large woman (male).

Who am I kidding, this is /CYOA/, of course you are.

>>53143479
It doesn't even make sense. If they wanted to be a girl, why not choose one of the girl options?

>>53142115
A cyoa where you become the waifu

>>53143479
I thought that was a possibility, but it wouldn't make sense to list out five of the possible 'elements' and just leave the fifth to be assumed - so I thought the witch (male) would be normal as well.

>>53143494
For the same reason that I picked Necronomicon instead of Potion of Witchiness - any given item is more useful than level 1 of a school, and I don't want to be a kid forever.

>>53142359
>true form
witch (male)

>powers
potions 4
curses 5
transmutation 5
witchery 2

>magic items
wand
witch hut
potion of witchiness

Need both curses and transmutation for true immortality - curses prevents you from dying, ever, while transmutation lets you stay young forever. Transmutation also solves money problems, since 1 pint of blood really isn't that much and 10kg of gold is nearly half a million dollars. Potions is needed because of panacea - eternal life while having cancer or whatever would suck real bad. Witchery is for utility - you get a comfy cloak that is perfectly climate controlled.

I really wanted to get charms, but anything below level 4 isn't going to be a huge boost, and being limited to three at a time pushed me to potions.

I will hunt and kill the biggest monsters I can find, and they'll never land a claw on me even if they do see me coming.

>Saorna
Would probably be less of a companion and more a semi-friendly rival with some tsundere overtones; I'm not adverse to helping her get better at socializing, but I'm a better hunter than her and I'm not shy about it. May end in fug

Just because they post under a name or even put it somewhere in their cyoas doesn't mean I give a fuck about their identity. I only recognize SDA and Beri, the rest are just namefags who made unspecified cyoas I maybe enjoyed.

Male [15 Points + 1 Item]

Level 5 Curses
Level 5 Transmutation
Level 5 Consortation

Wand
Potions: x3 Panacea
Charm: Level 4 Luck
Potion of Witchiniess: Level 1 Catmancy [Black Labrador]


I don't think this has been brought up, but Level 5 Curses' immortality lets you drain your blood indefinitely through regeneration. Blood can be used to make gold through Level 5 transmutation. Gold can be spent through Level 4 Consortation.

The real problem is Mammon doesn't seem to take effort to hide the fact that you essentially stole whatever you paid for. I'd love to be able to pay double or triple for him to launder it. Without laundering, you have to be very careful - I'd definitely move to a no-questions-asked country and hire loads of private security. No one in their right mind is going to come to the conclusion of "Magic!" without very hard evidence, but people would definitely suspect something fishy is going on. The Level 4 Luck Charm is to help me avoid notice, but a concerted effort to investigate me would be irritating.

(As a side benefit, anyone with money+Curses+Consortation can always buy a sentimental possession of the target they want to curse)

(Also, my soul is my own, so the Level 5 in Consortation was only for the extra item - the wand).

How do people end up with shitty colors and unreadable fonts on their CYOAs? Don't they have eyes? Can't they see it looks like shit? Or is it like how you try not to look at your own shit when you use the toilet?

I hate these sexist fucking CYOAs that assume you're already male to start with.

>>53142709
You get 1 item for being male.
You get 1 item for free.
You get 1 item per L5 skill you have BEYOND THE FIRST. That means number of L5 skills -1.

3 level 5 skills = 2 items +1 free (male) +1 free (gift) = 4 items, just like there are only 4 lights!

> - Outsider Medic
For keeping everyone healthy (and to shape them into less monstrous/intimidating and more appealing forms).
> - Stalker
Scouts, lookouts, and spotters. Especially that last one - observing where potential hostiles are to make sure the warning shots don't accidentally hit them.
> - Infiltrator
In case corpses are discovered, having Infiltrators handy would be nice for the purposes of adding their knowledge and expertise (if any) to the collective. Maybe also something to the tune of turning the bodies in to a nearby settlement, along with any last words or the like that the deceased might've had in mind before dying. Alternatively, have them try and integrate into human society and provide information gleaned from the internet (or equivalent) via the psychic link.

So yeah. Main plan being making a settlement somewhere where me and my children could live and wait for this whole thing to blow over. Failing that, either try to reintegrate to society, or just surrender myself as-is, depending on how tired of everything I get.

Nobody is picking Consortation because frankly, it sucks.

It's immortality would be a good deal, if could live with sending someone else to hell in your stead, if every single other tree didn't also give immortality. It's only benefit is that it has no fail condition, it always triggers. But so does Curses' and that doesn't require you to try to convince someone that signing a document with their own blood is a good idea. It's also the only level 5 that gives nothing but the immortality, every other tree has stuff in addition.

Cold iron is iron that hasn't been through the forge. That is, it's never been heated or smelted. So it can only have been 'cold forged', which is when you simply hammer and cut a piece of metal into shape.

>>53144981
>That is, it's never been heated.
Geologically speaking, that's impossible

>>53144981
No. That's RPG bullshit.

You will probably need some SDA hair to make it

>>53145045
The term itself comes from a poem by Rudyard Kipling, and the concept comes from myths such as hanging a horseshoe over your door to ward off the fair folk, drawing a circle with an iron weapon around a child to ward off evil, nailing a witch to their footprints with an iron nail, and similar bits of folklore.

Not an applicable charm. Also, if it was, a Level 5 charm of beauty would be a bad, bad idea. Considering 5 Fertility is "get pregnant from holding hands," 5 Beauty would probably get you raped by everything on the planet.

>>53146277
So use a level 5 charm of romantic interactions or whatever it was called. I mean, level 5 potions has a straight up 'if they drink this they love you' effect, i can't see charms being too terribly far off.

>>53146353
That charm makes the wearer love someone so you'll have to put it on someone, not to mention that's not being attractive, that's just having someone attracted to you

No it doesn't. Romantic Intuition is a level 1 charm, and if it does what it says on the tin it should make you better at chatting someone up. At level 5, that will basically make you lothario.

So if you get angry at losing a game of LoL or whatever and scream out, the bashful haunt leaves? That kind of sucks.

>>53147292
You deserve it for being an autist who screams at vidya.

Yes, unfortunately I ended up depending on the village CYOA stylistically and things turned out this way. I'm glad you've enjoyed my writing, I don't have much faith in it myself, I can never tell if I'm using words correctly.

>>53147292
Scream angrily at the poltergeist I meant, not just random screaming, perhaps that needed a clarification.

>>53147487
You do good work. I imagine it'll get lots of (you)s, it might just be taking awhile if everyone is pouring over it, reading everything repeatedly, like I am.

>>53147427
I made Magocratic Convention, Blood Magic, Time of Troubles, 5th Worm CYOA. You can look them up in the google drive, they should be there.

>>53147587

The image seems to trigger the 4chan bug that makes the downloaded picture larger in filesize than the original.

Here's a resaved one that hopefully doesn't do the same.

The only named author who still works in Paint is Italics I think.

why is the man in the fancy suit a hostile phenomena? i get that hes probably evil - but his deal seems pretty good

>>53146550
So if you pick Erika/Kowallski but not both, can you never encounter the one you didn't pick?

>>53146550
Neat, is there going to be a part two? I want to know why we are supposed to be forced out so badly, and maybe a chance to be helpful to gargoyle waifu...and maybe chessbro.

In the hostiles, why would anyone take sharp suit man over fancy suit man? Also fancy suit man doesn't seem that hostile

>>53144591
Ohh so edgy! Grow up.

>>53147949
It's part of the lore of the apartment. There's also a man in a cheap suit who actually helps the tenants.

Basically the fancy man seduces, the sharp man punishes, they're supposed to be a duality sort of thing I guess.

>>53144329

Show us your cunt sweet heart

>>53147709
It does, doesn't it? But you know what they say about deals which are too good to be true, don't you?

>>53146550
The Give and Take Well seems like a bad deal. If you can only give something of greater value than he wish to grant it, then you ultimately lose. Probably the point, but Equivalent Exchange might not be a bad thing either.

>>53148135
Yes but a wish can grant you things that you could probably not get normally

>>53148135
The bigger issue is that you'd be guessing as to what might be a greater value. The very fact that you're willing to make a trade already indicates that what you want is of greater value to you than what you're giving. Might unintentionally piss off a magic well

Witch (Male)

Potions 5
Charms 5
Transmutation 5
Witchery 1

Potion of Witchiness
That Other Necronomicon (Mammon) (Caffiene Intoxication)
Wand
Charm Charms

The most vital aspect of Consortation, for me at least, is covered with That Other Necronomicon. Transmutation synergizes amazingly with Mammon, as you can use him to launder items. You can also use him to obtain the rare materials needed for all your high-level magic, and if you're in need of money that is what Transmutation is for. Using the Wand on your blood makes Transmutation level 5 much more manageable. At least I think, how Transmutation works is a mystery to me as the description feels kind of confusing.

>>53148208
The wand doesn't work on blood though

>a pint of blood every so often for nearly $400,000
Where are you getting that number? Gold is about 1200$ an ounce and you'll get around 1k or so selling it which is 10k per pint of blood a far cry from 400k per pint.

>>53143916
Ironically, the levels of anti-Dyson shitposting reached a crescendo when that was first posted that someone DID make an edit of it to remove the offending options.

>10 out of 10 female tenants look like cute, young girls
>2-3 out of 10 male tenants aren't ugly, old grandpas

>>53142063
Fucking hell, why do so many of you faggots want to be little girls?
You shame your ancestors.

>>53148222
>>53148264
Even if it did, you aren't getting 2 tons of your own blood anytime soon.

>>53148370
I don't fucking know i was here looking at cyoas and suddenly one day i wanted to be a cute little girl

>>53148338
>Ugly old grampas
I think they aged quite well anon

>>53148338
Yeah, that girl who bleeds from every orifice is so cute.

The dubiously evil girl locked behind a door is so enticing.

The little girl who wanders the halls....excitement!

The middle age maid who falls asleep everywhere really makes my weewee go woo!

There are literally about 2-3 acceptable females. And 2-3 acceptable males, including the demon. Every single option of any gender, and in between, is a borderline non-functional supernatural phenomen. Quit worrying about sex in purgatory.

>>53148338
Accept it. It's why cyoas will never be a serious literary medium.

>>53148135
>>53148208
>>53148264
I don't think it's actual value, more like subjective value or something. Maybe actual value is included as well.

>>53148385
Oh, whoops. Either way, I can use the Wand to replicate the lesser materials and still end up having enough stuff to placate Mammon.

As a fallback, I can just use my charms to become a professional etcher and make decent money that way.

>>53148422
Because authors are straight men and won't appeal to your gay dick?

>>53148424
This is actually one of the lore points of the well that wasn't included. Nobody's quite sure whether the well works off intrinsic value, subjective value or emotional value.

>>53148413
Doesn't change that they look like cute, young girls. It's the only blemish on an otherwise great cyoa. For god sake, even the grandmother looks like a russian anime model.

The cyoa would be better if some of the waifus looked more appropriate for their character imo.

>>53148413
Nothing wrong with evil girls though.

Evil girls need love too.

>>53148455
She's a fucking witch, nigger.

Yeah, that was my point. It's pretty much a gamble, unless you go for a trade that's so skewed it cannot possibly be misconstrued. Even then, the rules of this universe seem liable to screw you just because

Blame it on the wise old man trope

>>53148439
Because in no serious literary work all the women are young and cute. Imagine Hamlet except the Queen is a loli.

>>53148455
They're not waifus, you idiot. There is nothing there about romance or sex. They are tenants.

It's not the fault of the content you're projecting your insecurity and prejudice onto it

Why should I care what people who have long since ceased to exist think?

Their suffering is over. The sweet release of oblivion already has them.

Why can't they look homely and comfy like the male tenants then? Why do most of them have to be sparkly and beautiful?
