Anyone who complains about proposed jumps like 'Towergirls' for being lewd when there are SFW versions to base jumps off of is a shitposter.
Not to mention we allow things like ecchi based jumps which are a lot more lewd than a SFW CYOA that has a nsfw spin-off and lewd options in body mod.

Is there a SFW version of the CYOA without magical dildos?

I personally wish we could have a towergirls jump because I enjoy busty goblins but I think the magic dildos (and similar content) put some people off. Maybe if someone could discover some precedent of an essence powered dildo from Exalted or something it'd be fine.

So...I get the impression from last thread and the only build for the jump that a Genius is much, much, much more dangerous than the other splats to compensate for otherwise being squishy humans. How do they compare to Mages?

> How do they compare to Mages?
Funny you should ask! They're actually roughly comparable. The primary difference being source and technical execution. In fact, according to TVTropes, it's actually not totally uncommon for technologically inclined Mages to be mistaken for Geniuses, and more mystically inclined Geniuses to be mistaken for Mages. When the mistake is eventually caught, there's some awkward shuffling and the newbie is kicked over to the proper side by his peers.

Genius CAN be extremely dangerous, because geniuses can potentially wield a lot of terrible power, and there's some crazy shit out there when your powers are essentially born from creativity and manic theories.
On the other hand, most (important distinction: "most") geniuses are still human, and if you can catch them off guard they'll fall to a bullet same as any other.
You just might have to get past a bunch of nazis or robot zombie monkeys or a Big Brother surveillance system first, depending on who you're after and what Bardo they're in.

Bardos being basically alternate pocket dimensions spawned from disproven theories and unrealized futures. Some of those can be pretty crazy.

>Hungry Hungry

That biomass perk is goddamn badass. As written, it sounds like it even allows for minor shapeshifting if you can go from being a fatfuck to a hungry skellington at will. I'd say its easily worth 400 (especially for a 'nid) because of how much of their mutations is dedicated to supporting the reat of their biomass unless you just have it be generally packing on less pounds than you normally would (which I assume was the intention) rather than having an endless nullspace for personal meat. Maybe just a really good self regulating metabolism?
>>
>>54116366
Which axiom is best for energy production?
>>
>>54116397
Uh, no, no shapeshifting involved. It basically just means that instead of having to store it all inside of you, you can just store it in a nonphysical space. Once you take it out, you still need to digest or process it. Like...having a giant refrigerator in your stomach that holds all the meat. When you wanna eat something, you still need to actually eat it, it just doesn't take up any space in your actual kitchen.

In terms of usefulness to a nid...not as much as you might think to any of the nids the jump focuses on. For a harvesting organism, it's fucking crazy good. But most of the ones you're going to be in the jump are combat or command focused ones, where storing lots of biomass isn't that great for them, no more then it is for any biological being. Even the Norn Queens, it's mostly just cutting down on the time they spend eating instead of creating, since it doesn't make them able to process or use it any faster.
>>
>>54116422
It just sounds likehas some crazy utility involved because if you can instantly move the mass iide and out of you at will it makes it much easier to work out for whatever body shape is most ideal for doing stuff. Not to mention never dying from indigestion or poison again, if you're quick enough to shunt the affected meat out of you

I don't know, it could just be me but it seems extraordinarily versatile for a 100 CP perk which I'm pretty sure nids dont have in canon
>>
>>54116365
>Dis motherfucker's a lategame Jumper isn't he?

More like mid-game, but yeah.

>>54116338
>Bastard drawbacks are done.

So, it's done? Because last time I heard about the Jump, it was finishing the items.
>>
>>54116434
Ah, you're misunderstanding. The biomass isn't digested or instantly drained of nutrients. Once you bring it back in, it just plops back into your mouth or throat or whatever and has to be digested as normal. If you want it, you still need to have all the organs and bits needed to eat and digest things, otherwise you're not even going to be able to activate the perk. If you're this lifeform so specialise for combat that you don't have a stomach, then you're not going to have any way to digest the biomass and if you don't have a mouth/throat/intestines, you're not even going to be able to put it in the space because you're missing a way to eat it.

It's basically like a interdimensional picnic basket. You still need to eat and digest the food as normal.

Also I think I haven't made it clear enough that it's only for biomass you eat and I'm only just realised it can be taken to apply to any of their biomass, which is definitely not the purpose. Oops.

Like just straight electricity? That's actually a pretty difficult question. Wonders require Mania to function (unless you're using that one perk from the jump, in which case it requires "Innovation"), so at best you could create a Wonder that, in using its Mania, does something that you can siphon for power. After that, it's really kindof up to your particular brand of fluff, because there isn't one geared towards exactly that.

So, you could make a Katastrofi cannon that fires electricity in huge bursts into a battery that in turn powers other less fantastical machinery, or an Automata series of pistons that runs all the time, powering movement like an engine. But they would both run off of Mania themselves, which would mean that you would have to constantly maintain them, because Mania comes from Geniuses.

Honestly, this is one of those things that you're actually probably better off using mundane or out-of-jump science for, at least initially. But that doesn't mean it's impossible.
With sufficient axioms you could maybe use Skafoi to call bits of starstuff into reactors and siphon them for energy. Though you'd probably want a lot of Prostata Shielding to contain them. Or Metaptropi to turn stuff into energy, because somethingsomething energy cannot be created or destroyed so instead you'll just turn things into energy somethingsomething SCIENCE!

You just have to be creative, anon. Genius is a really open ended game. That's why it and Mage are comparable.
>>
>>54116406
I think the axiom depends on what the energy is for. Making energy by itself has no purpose, and the axioms are segregated by purpose.

So a genius makes a battery for a death ray as a side effect of Katastrophi.
They upgrade their current spaceship with a new generator via an Exelixi upgrade.
They make an energy tap that redirects energy from the national power grid into their own devices via Epikrato (and probably also requires Apokalypsi and Katastrophi).
They tap artificial pockets of entropy via Skafoi.
In any case the amount of power is entirely abstract until they try to do something with it - and then the relevant axiom comes into play.
>>
>>54116498
Fairly sure it's the Horseman 100cp item.

Probably around the same sort of planet area? So on the planet and maybe nearby moons? It's a pretty beefy area. If you have a way to transport your signals further, it'd depend mostly on how far you can reliably transfer the signals then any hardcap on how far.
>>
Aside from Hive Queen Quest, what perks allow for between teamwork and synergy when working in a group to develop something?

Grupal magic rituals would also be appreciated.
>>
>>54116329
Hero BBS, PS 238 And high school DXD Have custom magic system options.
>>
>>54116406

So, I'm going to assume "electricity" here...
As >>54116499 and >>54116503 pointed out, Wonders operate on Mania.
If I were to want a generator of electricity for some reason, I'd build a capacitor into a wonder of Automata to make a pseudo-perpetual motion generator. Charge the capacitor with Mania (to mitigate any time I needed to spend away from it) and let it do it's thing via magnets and coils...

Combined with the Season City Quirk, from My Hero Academia (enhanced by three purchases Empowered Quirk), I can manipulate and wield my various Sauces and such freely, and can move them at such speeds as to effectively serve as pressure cutting jets. I can also do really goofy stuff by cooking it with Hamon and my trusty Saucepan Hand. The Holy Grail Relic from Symphogear is the source of all my other utensils and such. All this is wrapped up together by a Sauce-based Martial I gained in Kung-Fu Panda.

Usually with that perk from Black Dynamite that lets you make compounds that change the size of bodyparts in given demographics. Suddenly impractically large tits/dicks is one solution to the enemy army problem.

I'm here to tell you that Lemuria is not the bad guy. I mean, sure, there was that whole thing with the lizard people, but that's in the past! Now Lemuria is all about DISCOVERY! We help Geniuses find their place in the world! We help make the world a better place!
And though our disparate views may seem incompatible to the untrained eye, they are all but facets of Genius! With our theories combined, we may someday understand the truth of this world! Just as soon as we understand ourselves.
Or possibly everything else.

Of course, Lemurians also have a reputation for getting a little... callous. But they're just focused on the bigger picture. Sometimes you have to be the bad guy, in order to not be the bad guy.
Take me, for instance. A few lifetimes ago, I was a vampire! That was a scary time, because at the time, there just so happened to be a lot of robots going around, firing solar beam weaponry, and hunting down vampires! You probably heard about it, it was this big purge. I hear ninety percent of the world's vampires actually died! But there are still a few blasted holdouts.
But I bet you'll never guess who was behind those Solarpunk-styled Automato-- oh. You already gue-- NO. Shut up! I was going to do this whole, "IT WAS ME, BARRY" schtick, and you ruined it, you asspipe! Fine! I don't even care anymore.
I'm leaving.

I'm not sure how to feel about the implication there that being Jumper makes you like God...

I decided to go a more creative route and make a form of modified Infernal exaltation that I could give to someone, being riden by one of my third circles, with one of my graces fused with the exaltation.
The idea was to allow someone to become a devil-tiger in their own right, while being attached to me, becoming a sort of secondary devli-tiger within my greater one, and being balanced and constrained along with the other three by my Grace's influences and steered/guided by my loyal third circle acting as a coadjutor.
I'm still working on the idea.
>>
>>54118169
I made ones based on the concept of Piety and Obedience, 'case damn it all, I want exalts I can properly control and direct, not lone wolves and those with contrary agendas!

Hmm. Would giving Solars, Hamon/Ripple be worth it I wonder?
>>
>>54118341

>>
>>54118409
Well, for the cost of losing/tying-up one of my thrid circles, losing access to my Grace and the costs associated with making a Celestial-grade Exlatation, I gain... eh, a set of 4 charm trees from the sub-DTs, the loyalty(?) of their third circles, which may be forced to be weaker than my own due to the setup, and the ability to rub it in Theion/Malfeas' face.
"Oh, you have two fetiches, do you? How impressive. But then, I'm such a great primordial, that I," ~opens trench coat~ "Have four other primordials inside me!"
i suppose if you also make some custom charms or include such charms in your charm tree, you could make some facets of your nature benefit from having more third circles under your authority somehow.
Like I said, I'm still working on the idea.

I started somewhere between Infernals and Sidereals, actually. Infernals was right after Gurren Lagann-in which I spent a decade being genuinely happy and making lifelong friendships with Team Dai-Gurren.

In hindsight, my decision to make Spiral Exaltations was some sort of internalised catharsis. Both because of that, and having seen the injustices inflicted on the Primordials. Bottom line: I trapped the bleak perfection of the Daystar in a host of cruicibles that honed it into the evolution, friendship and creation those experiences burned into my soul. While forging them, I did all in my power to improve on the basic design of the Exaltation-mainly by letting it run off things other than Essence, accelerating Charm learning times with wish science and granting synergy effects absent from most Infernal Exaltations.

Then I exploited the inherent backdoor that the Great Curse exploited to /become/ the Exaltations in a sense.

...also in hindsight, I MIGHT have been a little crazed from rebuilding my own sense of self right before attempting this.

I was trying to make them before Solars came out, with a fairly complicated-ass set-up of perks that I wasn't even sure if they'd work 90% of the time until I had another thing to tie two things together.

Then apparently everybody and their grandmother got the ability to make them with as little effort as cutting a birthday cake, and now I'm disregarding the whole idea because I'm a completely and utterly Bitter Betty.

My Marines are better than Exaltations anyway.

Pankosmoi is ostensibly the Axiom of Axioms, a meta-Axiom that allows for the manipulation of Mania and Inspiration directly. It's that function which would allow it to make Wonders reproducible, by preventing Havoc and thereby allowing non-Geniuses to interact with them without the magic going away, and to eliminate the need for Mania to make a Wonder and therefore make its construction available to mundane scientists.

>>
>>54120668

Depends on what you're using them for, how you acquired them, and how you're treating them.
>>
>>54120668
it is wrong for anyone to own slaves,slavery is inherently wrong
>>
>>54120668
After one reaches a point, slavery is impractical.

They require feeding and housing, lest they die and you run out of them.
They have exhaustion and other limitations of the body.
If they lose a limb or suffer an injury, unless your medical tech is decent they're going to be out for a while.
They age, and with age comes loss of qualities and physical parameters that were why you bought them in the first place.
>>
>>54120687
Tell that to the Ancient Greeks and Romans.

>>54120685
Under a fair system with plenty of oversight, slavery would just be a form of contractual employment. Of course, you could argue that if you went so far, it wouldn't be slavery anymore.

If you have magic then why the fuck do you have slaves.

You can literally just magic everything.

We come to the point again, if it being impractical to have slaves because you can accomplish more, rendering the point of having a slave utterly moot.

Freeing slaves was bad because they were unlikely to be employed again in an economy based on slaves laboring the field. Also, slaves trend to come from conquered regions and they came with their own religions and cultures.

So, you have unemployed, hungry and angry people with a non-Roman mentality.

The original Jedi Code was held as an ideal, not as something to be followed exactingly. It's basically saying that a Jedi should remain in control of their own actions even if they are overcome by emotion or put into difficult situations. It's also saying that a Jedi should not fear death because they are guided by the will of the Force and will live forever through it.
>>
>>54120891
He said original. The code the Jedi are known for and the Sith code split from that old ass version.

Feeding & housing slaves is no problem. For most jumpers food & housing is simple.

Exhaustion can be remedied easily. Give them some nanomachines or just not caring. After all if you have slaves who's just there to show how awesome you are. Them dying in mass just proves your might.

There's always more slaves. If you have one that got themselves injured so badly they need to be taken care of, then your best bet is to replace the slave. Unless its an expensive one.

That's why you breed your slaves to get a fresh supply of labor.

Slavery is inefficient but gives you power & prestige. IMHO only have house slaves, scantly clad attractive looking servants. Modified to stop aging past a certain point, long life cycle, quick pregnancy, immunity to disease/poisons, and regeneration.

IRL Slavery was a thing because heavy labor was in great need. So conquering others & forcing them to do the labor saves you from doing it yourself. In Ancient times slavery was also a good way to increase your social standing. Even if you're a slave, you get garunteed food & shelter. Which wasn't always garunteed as a free person.
>>
>>54121109
>IRL Slavery was a thing because heavy labor was in great need.

There are literally more than 160 ways to create a workforce that is not reliant on slavery in JumpChain, and is more effective and more practical in the long run. The only reason you could conceivably want slaves at this point is if you get a raging boner from being in a position of dominance over others - and there's BDSM for that, honey-buns.

I have no idea why I'm arguing this given you deliberately go for the most contrarian interpretation.

Yep. Some people like to do edgy interpretations of Pokemon where trainers are awful slave masters, but the fact is the Pokemon are perfectly fine with the fights. They can still object to any given trainer if said trainer treats them poorly, I'm not saying it's impossible to abuse a Pokemon, but the fights aren't intrinsically cruel.

>>54121983
Exactly. A trainer has to prove themselves to the Pokemon in order to gain their service, there's not some mind control effect from the Pokeballs. I figure that's probably why Pokemon attack you in the tall grass, most animals would flee from something stomping around in the undergrowth. But wild Pokemon challenge your team, they want to see how they stack up against human-trained Pokemon. Challenge and training and cultivating power are huge things for Pokemon. The series is secretly a xianxia setting, only with the cultivators being weird little monsters instead of humans.

As someone with a weird opinion on the matter, normal death is way better than ego death. In a lot of places and series a person will at least keep their memories after dying and entering the afterlife so it's more like you're getting rid of them and sending them to whatever punishment awaits. Ego death, erasing memories, destroys a person completely. Just kill the person.

Just erase their memories. I do it all the time. Hell I do it in everyday conversation whenever I fuck up and say something dumb. So I erase everybody's memories and reset the conversation back a couple of seconds.

You probably want to fill the empty space with something else, though. It's always annoying to erase somebody's memories only to find out later that they went on a journey to regain their memory and accidentally fumbled your master plan with a motley crew of rogues and misfits that they picked up along the way.

Sidereals can try to weaponize Fate... But Fate in Exalted isn't something that forces things to happen. And even if it were, Exalts are explicitly able to defy it (they'd be useless anti-Primordial weapons otherwise) and there are plenty of things Outside Fate (such as most of the enemies of Creation).

The file is pretty thicc if I do say so myself.
In it are:

Relations between me and a figure I fit (and am) from minor myths and folklore about usually a "soul Smith" in primitive times or in more modern times an inventor of sorts along with lists of mythic and historical sightings starting somewhere in an African sub-continent. All long before "modern" recorded history on "The Dimension of Enchantment" where I was regarded as a Smith wearing odd white "cloaks" with a strange circular symbol with arrows pointing in.

After that, there would be more development upon this small subcontinent and "sister" island. Its future sinkage after "The Era of Fiends" citing growing populations of large predatory fauna as threats to the small-ish struggling communities who's prayers were no longer answered by "The Angel." With a final "Dark-age" where it was drowned in horrific creatures fended off by town wizards of sorts before finally sinking with its sister island into the depth of the ocean.

After this more enchanting history comes connections to Greek myth the supplying of weapons to a Spartan, who ravaged the heavens. Being a known as an odd wizard or "Smithy of the soul" under King Arthur's rule (sources conflict on which precisely) eventually spirited away by the fairies he apparently learned his crafts from.

With a large gap in history for roughly 40-50 years before reemerging in folktales of island nations roughing the pre-industrial post-enlightenment era, Being found in a very prestigious and quite secretive school lost to time. Becoming a Philosopher of sorts and being known for craft, the thread continues out following bizarre characters legends through the industrial era and becoming a formal citizen of the US in the ~1950s where he disappears out at sea following an eccentric millionaire and his pet project.

the rest is still pending your clearance

>Without a Fair Folk jump, this is actually only marginally possible - Creationborn in Shaping Combat can only do so much. It's also only valid in the Wyld.
I disagree. First of all, we have a Lunars jump and so we can get our hands on Fair Folk charms. Same with the Mortals jump letting us be Fae-blooded. But even without those, there are plenty of ways to weaponize narrative in Exalted. The simplest is to actually, physically weaponize narrative. Stories and legends are valid as exotic crafting ingredients when making artifacts, the hard part is being able to physically grasp them so you can work them into the structure. There are also many charms, mostly Solaroid ones, that have fluff of the Exalted's narrative becoming physically manifest. Hell, that's a key part of becoming a Devil Tiger. As for Sidereals weaponizing Fate, that works great. Astrological blessings, Sutra charms, SMA...it works fine as a weapon so long as its imposing a condition in the pattern of someone's destiny instead of the grand design. Exalts can casually ignore the sort of destiny that says "you will do this no matter what, and nothing can change the final outcome". They can't do that when the destiny is stuff like "When the ship's Mast breaks, the whole ship is endangered. Nothing dies without consequence, and so to hurt me you must hurt all these other people whose fates I am tied together with."

>6 Assorted Basic Lands (Free)
I get 200 points toward lands. Basic lands are 50 apiece and 150 for a five-pack. You'd better believe I'm getting one of every type and two Plains. And then absorbing them. Into my soul. With the rest of the lands that follow me around. With the added use of Hydra Blueprints. I forgot - did I mention I swapped out my company in MCU2 for the Blueprints some time back because I'd been mistaken as to how they worked?

So, falling in from another world, and having to swim all the way from Mikokoro to the mainland. Not my favorite thing. And, of course, I'm barely beyond peak human - which for this world is hardly exceptional. My companions aren't much better off, either... I suppose that's the cost for taking such a scenario. Subtly poking around informs me that I would be well advised to not simply declare myself a god, so instead I take a more subtle approach. I've been around long enough to know that dropping a few words here and there with the right kind of person can get them to have a little faith in someone who won't abandon them. Even if they're locked in mortal form.

And sure, it's not fun running around fighting off a warlord who is hellbent on fighting me, and a warband of oni for good measure, but .. well, I still have access to the Warehouse, so even if I have no powers I've got tech enough to stay alive. And the best results I've had have been when the two groups met and fought each other over who gets to kill me, hilariously.

During this jump, for the most part I simply masquerade as a ronin, fighting injustices... after all, it fits the tropes quite well. And as the number of people who direct their thoughts my way grows, my powers start trickling back, little by little. Those who pray find their faith in me strengthened, find the pains of old age easing a bit, their eye and minds clearer. Word gets around.

>>54123008
Three years in, the first temple to me is established, promptly sacked by oni, and that only encourages people to rebuild when the oni have been slain by a wandering swordsman.

Four years in, there are five temples and those who worship me are reporting markedly increased health, among other improvements.

Five years in, there are dozens of villages praising me, which is raising a lot of eyebrows in a world where the gods are at war with the mortal realm. And yet there seems to be more than one wandering swordsman now - spoken of as an immortal ronin, reputed to fight for the people he protects, giving his blessing of health and plenty to the people even as they give him their worship. The shrine maidens likewise are matched with swordsmen, a relationship where both stand on equal grounds. The shrine maidens were present for decorum and diplomacy, and the swordsmen, to keep the peace by any means necessary.

Seven years in I hit the tipping point and had gotten all of my powers back along with the construction of a proper Taisha, but I'd had the body of a kami by that point - which was the same as the form I'd been using up to that point, writ large. I kept the war from touching the innocent, both those who worshipped me and those who did not, so long as the people also did not war with the gods. For none were without sin.

By the end of my time, a fragile peace had been established. It helped that the gods could no longer throw their ire everywhere without consequence, but the credit really went to the daimyo's daughter who ended up freeing a kidnapped god. Of all the stupid things. It's probably not a surprise that O-Kagachi smited the holy fuck out of Konda about the time that I left, honestly. Divine wrath is quite a thing.

My rule of thumb is that penalizing someone like that should be (to the best of my abilities) foolproof, but minimal.

So I'd rather erase the specific skills and knowledge that enable them to carry their plans, rather than erase their whole memory or rewrite their personality. I'd rather use some magical or technical bond to keep them from being violent rather than put them in prison. I'd rather cripple their most dangerous abilities rather than kill them.

And if they really are too dangerous, I'd rather do all of the above plus put them in a high security prison of my own design rather than kill them and let their soul loose in the afterlife.

I've been revising my Mermaid Melody Pichi Pitch jump, and while the changes are still underway, there's one issue I want to throw out here before I continue.

I liked the idea of there being a Human capstone perk based around how a lot of the humans actually have ties to other origins, but I have since seen the importance of not interfering with background selections for different jumps, so I removed the one I had in mind.

Now though, I think I have come up with a solution:

Almost Human (600 PPP, Discount Local Human)- A lot of the humans in the setting, at least the main characters, turn out in the end to be not entirely human – or not at all – by the end of the story. Whenever you have a nonhuman body form, you can shift to an alternate human form that embodies characteristics of that nonhuman form. While you will have the appearance of a human, and physical and magical scans will identify you as human, you retain special attributes and abilities of that nonhuman species, with up to 75% of the power level normally accessible to that species. For instance, a Pokémon’s human form would be considered human, but you could access Pokémon attacks even if they could normally only work with a Pokémon body. Also, within this jump only, you start out as actually another background species of your choice who is somehow stuck in a human form for the duration of the jump. You will not get discounts for that second background, but you can access a fair degree of the special abilities that that background normally has.

Could this work?

Plants are animals can be taken along as long as they're not 'sapient'. And I think there are several garden items to store things.

For taking the sapient I was thinking on soul-absorbtion and then using soul-magictech to create puppet bodies for the familiars to use.

>>54123496
There is one in Valkyrie Profile that works the same, but familiars don't get killed unless their souls are destroyed via soul-attacks. But you don't gain their memories, skills, powers and forms.

Ghost Warriors from Dragon Ball Multiverse does the same, but doesn't absorb the soul. Summoning is the same than the Valkyrie Profile perk but it's limited to 8 active summons which has no canon basis and stupid because there are other three perks that don't have the limit and are way better than it.

>that didn't surrender perfectly okay
The only reason that the very same thing doesn't happens today is because when a big country strikes some third-world shit-hole they can't ever hope to retaliate. So the public opinion are allowed to feel 'bad' for just destroying the entire economic infrastructure of the country and replace it with their own companies.

WW2 still had cities destroyed completely by both all sides if needed, and it's a thing that still happens in the various civil wars and local wars that came after WW2.

Curious thing about the Roman emperors is that most of their historical documents that we have today are written by their enemies after their deaths. So it's probable that they weren't that bad.

>>54123359
Well, one way to go about it would be to use that one perk from Civilization that lets you do legendary feats like mating with the sea or wrestling the wind as if they are living beings. Use that to seduce/recruit the world itself and have it become a companion. Just like how the human body is full of microbes and the like, the planet companion could feasibly bring along whatever he/she is carrying.

That's a key basis behind my plan to make Final Fantasy VIII's moon into my Sorceress Knight and proceed to found a monster civilization.

Yeah, and the world wars of the last century are one of the big factors in the shifting attitudes towards war.
Not only was it the first mechanized wars, it was also the first time the civilian populace got accurate reports from the battlefields.

I tend to pay discrete but meticulous attention to narrative clichés. Just in case.

I also have a few specific rules: don't say you're invincible, or a god; don't gloat; don't take your allies for granted; don't deceive through straight up illusions; don't make promises you can't be sure you'll follow through; etc... In short, don't tempt dramatic irony, and keep your credibility ironclad.

I think Nika's dislike of him is a Fate/ fangirl thing, not a Jumper thing. Doesn't seem to get caught up in the usual business for Jumpers and it's not like they're keeping their like of the franchise a secret.

At this point it's a little hard to separate "superstitions" from "things that will have a tangible purpose at some later date, only Jumper doesn't know why they do them at the time".
Luck perks are sometimes weird like that. Why did I turn my coffee mug around three times before drinking it? Dunno. But I'm sure it's got something to do with that waitress who noticed, and is coming to ask me why, allowing me to strike up a conversation where a neat piece of exposition will be delivered, or maybe I'll add them to my party?

>don't deceive through straight up illusions

I love illusions. Especially illusions of things I actually can do, but haven't. Thus when they "wise up" to my trickery and assume it's yet another illusion.... It's not.

That said, anytime I'm stripped of fiat perks, the ones I miss the most are actually my planning and memory perks (Xanatos Gambit and similar.)

As I say, that only matters because the current targets can't retaliate. When the Japanese bombed the US or the Germas occupied most of Europe and constantly bombed the UK, the citizens of said countries didn't really cared if a two cities in Japan suddenly disappeared or if German cities were reduced to rubble.

Nowadays people can only be against that with things like the Vietnam War or the most recent wars in the Middle East because the weaker side cannot ever hope to retaliate in their homes.

Getting your city raided if you didn't completely destroyed your enemy in a few years of your victory was a very real possibility with Rome, let alone the Greek City-States.

well you're going to need somewhere to house these people and maintain these machines This massive warehouse attachment is big enough and versatile enough to provide room for all the soldiers, and vehicles you purchase here, scaling proportionately with the amount and items you purchase, unfortunately it cannot be used , to store anything not directly related to the maintenance of them , nor anything not mundane. i.e. potatoes to feed them and steel ingots are fine super potatoes with actual eyes and Orichalcum ingots are not.

"The first recorded instance of the “first night” custom appears in the Epic of Gilgamesh, a five-cycle tale based on a historical king of Uruk in Babylonia around 2700 B.C.E. In Tablet 2, Gilgamesh, as the king, claims the right to have sexual intercourse first with every new bride in Uruk on the day of her wedding; Enkidu, the subhuman brute, enters the city, protests this “abuse,” and blocks the door of a marital chamber until Gilgamesh bests him in a fight. Enkidu’s challenge might be taken as an indication that the custom was already an unpopular one by the time the Epic of Gilgamesh was set down in writing."

This is what I was talking about.

>>
>>54124141
Point.

>>54124163
Another point. That said we're ascribing today's morality to the past. Remember that they had very different opinions in ancient Babylonia.

>>54124190
If bridge jumping was reserved for the kingly and those granted such by divine right? No.

In Egypt, it was an honor for the servants to be entombed and serve the pharaoh in the afterlife.

That said the Babylonian afterlife sucks and I'm not sure why Gilgamesh would take people with him. The entire point of the afterlife was that it sucks and living was much better.

Bablyon's traditions were inherited from its predecessors like Sumeria. In Sumeria, they didn't have any theories on what their afterlife was, it was intentionally a mystery. They just knew there was one and they simple assumed that they'd need to bring their belongings and servants with them. It was like Egypt if nobody actually knew what Duat was like.
>>
>>54124217
Eh. Grain of salt here. The Epic was compiled from anonymous sources ~1300 BC. Gil reigned ~2500 BC.

As mentioned, the first night custom is always "over there" or "back then," rather than something that can actually be pointed out.
>>
>>54124285
Sweet, mang. Thanks.
>>
>>54124217
Yeah, but you can't use stories from the Epic of Gilgamesh as evidence against the Nasuverse character. If you do people will yell at you about how that's wrong in-universe and the real Gil isn't like that, and no matter how much you point out that it doesn't matter because you're not dealing with the real Gilgamesh but a version reconstructed from the legends they won't care. Fate loves to do that. Servants are shaped by their legends, except when they aren't so they can insult your intelligence for thinking anything mankind recorded about them is even the slightest bit accurate.
>>
>>54124217
If it was before Gilgamesh met Enkidu, then the point was probably that he was a cunt for it. His character development is supposed to go from him being arrogant, self-interested, and even blasphemous, to a good king. Meeting Enkidu is basically the first step in Gilgamesh gaining some humanity/humility.

Not to defend him for doing it or anything.
>>
>>54123817
I'm not sure. There are a lot of possibilities.

There's Byss - an evil world whose villainous outlook conceals a sweet-hearted girl crying to be saved from the darkness forced on her.

There's Kashyyyk, a wild yet honorable jungle warrior.

Alderaan, a very innocent yet strong-willed lady who stands true to those she cares about.

Tatooine, a tomboyish tsundere who, like the desert, is both caring and harsh depending on the mood she's in.

Coruscant, a cosmopolitan, well-dressed princess who hides criminal tendencies beneath the surface.

Myself, I'd probably go for an "ordinary girl" - a lesser known, unremarkable planet that I nonetheless befriend and help grow into a great world and heroine.

It's a fanmade addition to the new World of Darkness. Basically, you're a mad scientist, and you can create machines based on obsolete scientific (or wholly unscientific) theories because you're basically a low-key reality warper. This has a tendency to drive Genius insane, since:
-They can't do true science anymore. Whatever they think will work, it'll work, and,
-Their creations tend to break down when witnessed by normal people going 'wait, how does that work".

It's very similar to the old World of Darkness' Mage the Ascension, only SCIENCE! is your paradigm.

As mentioned by others, this is the WoD with Mad Science. Reality warping through constructed devices and internally consistent rules (that differ between each Genius.)

>>54124829
A bardo is generally created when a popular theory is proven wrong - The martian empire formed the instant we discovered that there was no life on Mars.

A Beholden is a person who... Lack their own ability to form reasons. They might believe something, but couldn't explain it. They're dependent upon other people (Genii, specifically) to give them something to reflect (otherwise, they break down badly.) It's important to remember this: Beholden are broken, no matter how normal they seem.

They come about through interaction with, or deliberate action by, Genii. They're no longer Mere Mortals for breaking Wonders, which makes them useful assistants and minions for the Inspired. Incidentally, making a person Beholden is a violation of Morality (Obligation, for Inspired.)

>>54124838

In Genius the Transgression, do bardos count as wonders? Are they susceptible to havoc?

Also, in case the jump maker shows up, do the bardos bought from the jump require mania to sustain themselves? If so, how does the mania collection process work, and how much work is required?
>>
How does this look?

>>
>>54124920
A bardo can sustain the Manes within it, but it itself requires Mania to continue to exist. So Manes head out from the bardo into the real world in order to collect Mania to support the bardo (and themselves, when outside the bardo).

The capstone boosted Correlation of Constants... essentially allows you to steal the Mania from a bardo. Congratulations, you genocidal monster.
>>
>>54125041
Havoc only applies when a Wonder is touched by Mere Mortals. The closer they examine it, the greater the chances of it triggering - Scientists are almost guaranteed to break things nearly instantly.

You can use force fields to prevent them from actually touching the Wonder though.

>>54125069
A bardo is not susceptible to Havoc. It is a realm of different laws entirely - Think pocket dimension. While within the bardo, Havoc does not apply. Manes do, however, suffer Havoc when outside a bardo.

While I'm not the jump maker, I can't imagine that a CP purchased bardo would require any particular effort to maintain, at least post-jump (when drawbacks dissipate.)

>>54125069
bardos are separate PLACES, they aren't effected by havoc if a mundane is there but all the stuff IN a bardo ARE (people, tech outside the norm, etc.)

they do not require mania to sustain themselves, as they are places for ideas that have lost fancy.

>>54125069
Genius tech cant integrate at all with normal tech. Mostly because of the people making it, also because you'd have to find a way for it to run of mania.

"Havoc" is caused by people investigating a wonder, probing it, trying to figure it out, trying to internalize it. The curiosity and understanding that the item "isnt real" causes the idea to break down and destroy the wonder (at best) or more unsavory things at worse...

You can construct a portal in time to run into from your current position in the timeline as you smith the portal if you wish. Upon running back into the portal, you will go back to the time you created it in.

This portal in time can be scribbled on the ground in ten minutes.

>This perk evolves on an knowledge based level. Whereas before you could convert the
Non-Repeatable into the Repeatable you can now do so for just the replacement of
some systems, to compensate for the electricity now needed in place of Mania.
I don't completely understand.

By the way post jump do I still have to deal with Obligation?

Honestly I really like this jump I just don't completely understand it 100% Though that's probably because I've only had 2 hours of sleep in the past 36 hours or so.. I think I'll probably use this as my 3rd, 4th, or 5th jump depending if I take Infamous and/or Hero BBS.

Beholden are your Igors, basically. Normal people that have been caught up in the wake of your Mania and made into something less than human to assist you. Most Geniuses don't make them intentionally. Most.

Bardos are alternate universes, usually small ones, where something that humanity once believed about the universe but has since been disproved is actually true. The classic example is that there's a Bardo where Mars really does have canals and empires and barbarian hordes. However, nothing in the Bardo is really real, it's just illusions made physical through the power of Mania. Take something out of a Bardo and it becomes a Mane, a sort of spirit that feeds on human ingenuity and belief in order to sustain itself.

Is this a physical (you appear in the past and can interact with our former self) or mental (you appear in your younger self's body) time travel?

The restriction is ambiguous: does the portal cease to function upon your death, or does your deadness carry over back to the past?

Restriction to one active portal at a time may be wise, depends on the setting though.

>Genius tech cant integrate at all with normal tech.

Not true. A genius could incorporate a completely ordinary GPS unit into a vehicle... it would then run off of Mania. Thing is, the whole Wonder would suffer a penalty for the foreign device.

>>54125205
>I don't completely understand.
So, rather than simply applying the entire "It's bigger, real, and runs on electricity" bit to a Wonder, you can instead apply part of that - "It runs on electricity, but still provokes Havoc". Havoc can be useful, mind you - It keeps your stuff out of the hands of muggles.

>>54125205
>do I still have to deal with Obligation
In the most recent jump doc, Obligation was set up as a Drawback. Jumpers may or may not even have a human mindset when they get to the Jump, so having "Poof, you got here and now you lose" is hardly fun.

Things originating in a bardo, even mundane things and seemingly normal people, are Manes. Manes are affected by Havoc - Intelligent Manes have some measure of resistance, but they're still harmed by it.

Inside a bardo, they're not out of place, and are thus not subject to Havoc. It's only when Manes enter "reality" that Havoc is a thing.

Disproved. Your fanwank may vary, but by canon it's easier for Bardos to come into existence and stay there if they're popular. There's a Bardo that embodies the idea of Communism caused by the Eastern European revolutions, and a Martian Bardo inspired by things like the Space Race and the War of the Worlds.

The latter actually tried invading Earth and the Genius community had to stop them. While they're still kinda grumpy about the alien invader thing, apparently the Martians are flattered that because of Steampunk, they are considered "hip".

It is impossible to destroy horrors like Cthulu. The only way to do it is to become a horror, far past human.

Is that why you became the way you are, ASA? You trashed your humanity, but you are aware of how the end can destroy you if you follow that to its logical conclusion. So you pick up as many 'I Am Me And Nothing Can Change That' perks, so you can't completely lose who you are. Interesting.

>unreasdable purple prose

Ouch!

Anyway, let me see-in the bad old days, I spread despair and stasis in order to control entire civilisations-and reduced the ones I couldn't to rubble, because my study of the Necronomicon led me to believe a less advanced civilisation would draw less attention from the Black Pharoah. Yes, yes, I know-I was the ultimate cynic. And yes, a lot of companion actively despised me for it.

I didn't jump off despot creek in one day of course, it was sort of gradually building up to increasingly desperate measures until-I think it was either Dead Space or Lego that I truly went full absolute despair.

Tried to, anyway-I got stupid in Macross and was driven out of the galaxy for my trouble.

Then Light of Terra happened, I had a crisis of faith, refined my methods while secretly questioning my goals and, well-here we are.

>>54125893
Anon, I'm not denying that.

Even after realising that trying to becoming the most horrible dick ever to stand a chance against another dick was a terribad idea. Consider my opinion on the Daystar and the Exaltation, and what I chose to do that's related to them.

Every moment of existence is spent fighting the damned Theionnes in my essenece to prevent myself from doing even worse by going too far in the opposite direction.

I am not a generally happy man.

>>54125939
But what keeps me going?

Is the knowledge that ABOMINATION can do far worse than me, with the right motivation. And has. It's apparently listed as one of the dark powers of Ravenloft, who knows what else it's gotten up to.

You clearly haven't punched them hard enough.

Unrelated, I know your situation isn't that easy to resolve, but it would probably be perfectly in-character that after you actually manage to catch Nylarly in a trap or can damage them, they would purposefully or fake death against something rudimentary or stupid like an explosion or a fist. Just to throw the cruel irony of your long struggle and billions of years of innovation in your face.

I'm not really allowed to criticize in terms of atrocity, honestly.

Something Primordial is easily worth 600cp as-is.

It's a bardo full of primordial predators. You can summon forth the Manes into the real world. The Manes are alive (they are hurt by Havoc, not exploded) but more importantly: They feed on fear - They don't have to touch people to scare the fuck out of them. Or are you telling me you wouldn't be afraid of a pack of truck-sized shadow wolves?

And if somebody wandered into the bardo through your cleverly cave-painted entrance? They're toast - Inside the bardo, the Manes have free reign (no Havoc at that point - it's inside the bardo).

This, however, is a damned filthy lie.

Even in my darkest moments, I cared about results. Not methods. Never methods. I helped mentor Usagi, and Madoka to reach godhood-because I saw that for their universes, they could do a better job than I ever could.

I have nothing against Tenchi or the Presence, because the former actually /cares/ about his universe and the latter is willing to be hands off when things reach a breaking point LA LA LA THERE IS NO LUCIFER SEQUEL

Let's get this straight-I've absolutely done horrific, unforgivable, unimaginable things. But I've never done them for myself.

In a way, you could say that's actually worse.

>>54125952

And the worst part is-those perks can be as much an obstacle as anything, when they keep bringing your old mistakes to the forefront of your mind. Hard to improve yourself when you keep remembering "you" used to literally embody fear.

It doesn't cause them damage. Living Manes never take damage from Havoc, just action penalties.

That reminds me a bit about the Old Gods of the Thistle, who are the True Fae in all but name which one of the Mage sourcebooks claims were what used to live in Mage!Arcadia before the mages basically bulldozed it and the less horrible time/fate spirits showed up. Except the Fae live outside time and space, and even the Mages are baffled why things that shouldn't exist keep coming back to steal people.

As with many things in Mage, it's not clear how much of that is Mages being cocky and how much actually happened.

I use the phrase "hurt by Havoc" because, really, it is harm - Insanity or loss of ability are still forms of harm (for most Manes.)

>>54126237
Non-intelligent Manes are functionally Wonders. Even if they seem to all appearances to be identical to a normal item (or plant). Havoc can break or cause faults. Closer scrutiny can make it worse (and having something that seems normal start failing in spectacular ways tends to invite more scrutiny.)
>>
>>54126237
Non-living Manes get an extra Fault for every SUCCESSFUL (Exceptional Successes do nothing to them, though) role if they emulate the effects of a Wonder. Wonders are destroyed when they reach six Faults, so it depends on how many Faults the Mane had to begin with. If they don't emulate Wonders, they just lose a quarter of their Structure or every successful role. If either types fails a role they treat it like a failed Havoc role for Wonders, which means they go berserk and cause, well, havoc. They malfunction in catastrophic ways. If they get a Dramatic Failure, they either permanently are causing havoc and gain a bizarre pseudo-life, or they just explode. Depends on how powerful the Mane was. Weaker ones explode, stronger ones turn into monsters.

That's why I said ASA had to become something non-human, but he's plainly aware that if he follows it as far as he can (Given his Gurren Lagann-like mentality, he probably will) he'll completely lose who he is.

Which is why he gets the perks.

Non-euclidean topology? But what does a vector with more than three elements MEAN?! You can't integrate more than four times, that wouldn't make any sense!

>>
>>54126345
To be fair, there's always been a tendency in humanity to accuse any new advancement in math as being impossible madness. That's why we call crazy things "irrational", even, because the Pythagoreans associated numbers that couldn't be made into ratios with utter madness and violation of the natural order.

Yes.
Yes they are. But what's life without a bit of danger?
>>
>>54126384
Unlikely. It'll probably stand on its own enough to warrant it's own Jump, which is why I specified my FLCL Jump to Season 1.

If the thread doesn't agree after the show comes out though, I'll consider an update. But I'd really rather it get its own Jump.

And yeah, it's just the addition of one drawback, the abridged one.

That was a terrible episode in terms of missiles, though. They dodged one of the air-to-air missiles by opening the doors on both sides of the helicopter so that it flew right through. Because this is apparently a universe where air-to-air missiles are not equipped with proximity fuses.

I feel I should slap you for being that meta. Bad anon, go and do something other than kek at Jumpchain threads for a while.

That implies it wasn't super meta to begin with. Even just the basic framing device at the beginning is super meta, what with it looking like the opening of an isekai story and then veering a hard left into magical realism.

Solars

>Free Choice - The North
Chose a little OC camp of largely unremarkable and poor tribe in the Haslanti League. Been writefagging a bit but not gotten all that far yet.

>Scholar
Wasn't sure whether to go for this or Merchant, initial build was with Merchant but I had 100 CP I could use and Logic was a cooler 200 CP.

>Twilight Caste
Really didn't know what to go for but it seemed to fit nicely with the capstones I got boosted. Was veering towards Zenith for a while and now I can't remember why. Caste mark isn't great.

>Prosperity of the Sun+ 600
I nearly always take perks that boost underlings as I like to delegate and this one does that and ensures everyone has a nice time.

>Pages and Words
I really like the bit of finding out where the best shops are. Pretty niche but great for always getting good takeaways.

>Logic 700
Is mostly for telling people they're wrong. Wrong I say!

>Mind of the Sun+ 1000
Crafting crazy shit with less crazy materials will save a lot of time.

>The Three Circles of Sorcery 1300
Not even sure what this does but I really hate sacrificing stuff. Was a real shame not to take the Twilight 400 CP for more magic stuff but it seemed more redundant than this one.

>Unconquered 1700
Boosted the two caps. Plus faster essence regen which is handy.

>The Circle 1800
>Nuala: Fighter, Dawn Caste, Stunt Master, Sword of the Sun 300, Hope 600
Imported my companion as a fighty shooty type. Nice for her to get a signature weapon and Hope is a pretty great one.

You should. Yes. And not any less deadly, but more hilarious.

>>54126318
Thing is, being human or having a human-like mindset isn't the problem. It's being a LOVECRAFTIAN human, because those come with dozens of genetic, psychic, and spiritual backdoors into their everything, to be taken advantage of by every other species. Sorta like how Evagelion-humanity can be rendered down to orange goop.

Just by being a RL human (or even better, an 'anime human') instead of a scrublord, Cthulhu stops being an "unknowable horror we can't possibly fathom" and becomes just... an mountain-sized world-class psychic sorcerer-king squid-dragon monster. Which is not /that/ big an improvement, but is theoretically beatable.

>The Age of Jumper
Took the continuity drawback as someone said something about how me and my companion could somehow become one anothers mates. Initially she was going to be a solar in the lunar jump and a lunar in the solar one so it all evened out but you can buy things with the import if you import the same type. Either way the plan (or perhaps the hope) is that as the two lunars/solars tacked on to the canon ones we'd be paired up automatically. Really it doesn't matter that much.

>A New Dawn 1700
Means my appearance will be obvious. Possibly some Wyld Hunt stuff but I'm well out of the way and it shouldn't be all that troublesome.

>The Virtue of Compassion 1500
Largely just makes the other backgrounds more stressful as I'm looking out for my tribe.

>A Grim Nemesis 1300
Means I have to fight one Abyssal which between two unusually powerful young Solars shouldn't be that much of a problem. Add out of jump stuff and it'll probably be fine.

>What's a Combo? 1000
Basically means I'm going to be fighting the Realm probably to protect my burgeoning Northern nation which is a shame as I care too much.

>>54126716

The "narrative meaning" is irrelevant. In the setting, it's an entity, not an idea. That all breaks down in the context of jumpchain, and especially the taking of "perks".

And what is friendship but a name,
A charm that lulls to sleep,
A shade that follows wealth or fame,
And leaves the wretch to weep?
- Ch. 8, The Hermit (Edwin and Angelina), st. 19.

Whosoever is delighted in solitude, is either a wild beast or a god.
- Francis Bacon, 'Essays', XXVII “On Friendship” (1612, rewritten 1625). Bacon is paraphrasing from Aristotle, 'Politics', 1253a25-30

He never is alone that is accompanied with noble thoughts.
- Beaumont and Fletcher, Love's Cure (1647)

For solitude sometimes is best society,
And short retirement urges sweet return.
- John Milton, Paradise Lost (1667; 1674), Book IX, line 249

A man can be himself only so long as he is alone; and if he does not love solitude, he will not love freedom; for it is only when he is alone that he is really free. Constraint is always present in society, like a companion of whom there is no riddance; and in proportion to the greatness of a man’s individuality, it will be hard for him to bear the sacrifices which all intercourse with others demands.
- Arthur Schopenhauer, Counsels and Maxims, T. B. Saunders, trans., § 9

We enter the world alone, we leave it alone.
- James Anthony Froude, Short Studies on Great Subjects, Sea Studies

I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.
- Henry David Thoreau, Solitude
