how is it?

>>54497204
We're getting bad at letting these fall off the board before making a new one, I should be more proactive in the future.

With that in mind, hope everyone has a good thread! Remember to not take bait and don't let yourself get dragged into silly arguments!

>>54497294
Pretty good my man

Some typos and the formatting could be fine tuned a bit, but I'm certainly guilty of those sins in my work too

>Fox
>Conquer

With only one spirit conquering it should be easy, and with the Fox's abilities for lateral thinking I'm sure I could find plenty of ways to get rich and comfortable. Enhanced reflexes are icing on top.

>>54497294
The font is a bit hard to read but is ok. The content itself is fine though. Overall all 7.5/10 not bad but not what I am interested in particularly

>>54497294
Pretty ok if i say so myself
>Spirits
The wolf
The fox
The owl
The turtle
>Control
Monastery

There is only two ways this could end. I fail and fizzle away into nothing, or i succeed and go to change the world for the better.

>>54497161
>White Pawn, Black Rook.

A lot of the Black powers are tempting, but Rook is the only one among both sets that grants immortality right out of the starting gate (barring a charitable reading of Black Queen or White Rook/Bishop preventing aging), and if I never get tired then task-farming should be much easier. The speed boost and being the Juggernaut are nice, but really more of a bonus. All this is predicated on the transformation being effortless to maintain, of course.

White is likewise appealing, but the Rook's safety aura might get boring unless you can learn to control what constitutes 'bad' and the King's scientific prowess is a bit vague. It could potentially be game-changing, but when it comes with a package of mental alterations I'm not willing to chance it. Pawn allows you to choose your upgrades and the benefits are extremely versatile, so slow and steady wins the race.

>>54497964
Perhaps. Sorry, but this is not like Altering History; I'm not going to define the exact limits and features of abilities. That way madness lies. It's an imaginative exercise more than a game.

>>54497964
>>54497980
I suppose I can add "I don't see why not" as my answer to your first question, though.

>>54497980
Actually I had a question on Altering History.

Namely how does A Powered Companion work in a multiplayer game when you finish your quest(s)

Can you still remove the limiter on their power or is it still restricted

Does anyone have the Berserk/Apostle CYOA?

>Can you still remove the limiter on their power or is it still restricted
Er, it should really be restricted for a multiplayer game, because otherwise that can easily be a "instant win button". I hadn't thought of that, though, but will add that restriction into the next update. Thanks for bringing it up.

White pawn and black pawn, obviously. Can work on 7 things at once for rapid improvement and once we're swole we can start working together on hard tasks that dole out supernatural abilities. Even extremely dangerous jobs are fine since you can just have 1 person stay home and meme about on tg in case the rest of you die.

Should surpass any other choices fairly quickly.

Exactly, the amount of work he puts into this extended shitpost and how it seems he's trying to swing it in a way that makes it look like a big hilarious ruse by good 'ol Tok makes me think he's still desperately clawing for attention and refuses to recognize his autistic outburst as something that wasn't his fault. He'll eventually play it off as "Just an epic ruse and a fun game to help me relax for my next cyoa"

You changed the Third Eye description. So apart from knowledge, the only other thing you get from them is 'perspective'? I'm not sure what's going on from it now since it just seems like the familiar/sprite option now with vague differences.

So, l'm a retard and need a few things explained to me.

First, am I correct in understanding that each "ritual" is a combination of a specific demon and a specific vessel, and that you have to pay for each such combination that you want available? Like, if you pay for a tiger demon in a bottle, and also pay for a koala demon in a matchbox, you *cannot* then summon the tiger demon in a matchbox. Is that right?

Second, if I have a Muse in a Jar (which is just amazing as a concept), does that increase my effective power by 5 dots for each ritual? Like, can I use the jar for different rituals? Or do I need a different jar for every ritual which exceeds my power limit?

>>54498324
Why do anything?

5MB, 1400x10000px

>>54498020
Got you, senpai.

>>54498292
I have no idea what Dark Mind means. You're deliberately giving yourself less ritual points for what? Researching fate sounds nebulous. And it says +*, but the description says you get 5 less? What?

Will you improve the formatting of the lore bit?

>>54498335
>if you pay for a tiger demon in a bottle, and also pay for a koala demon in a matchbox, you *cannot* then summon the tiger demon in a matchbox. Is that right?
That is exactly right.

And no, you don't use up your jars in a ritual. You can shelf it and take it out again the next time you do a ritual.

>>54498340
I con't say anything about the fate part, I'm not the author, but the star bit is you trading 5 ritual points for a star. You could trade it right back for 5 points, I suppose, but you could also spend it on things that require stars as a way of trading ritual power for other benefits.

>>54498340
Ritual points =/= star points.
Read the text man.
Shade demonologists are the only ones that can convert ritual points back into star points, allowing them to give up power for more perks.

>>54498355
Some of the descriptions for individual entities states that they're important for some aspect of the world. Does binding them prevent them from serving as the cornerstones as before, or is that only if you're dumb enough to get them killed?

>>54498338
because you get something out of it

>>54498377
If they get killed (or rather, if their vessel gets destroyed) they go back to their natural state. Only when bound are they limited in their effect on the world.
There's actually a special perk for djinn demonologists that lets them bind powerful spirits to a jar without causing too much devastation.

>>54498403
>Only when bound are they limited in their effect on the world.
So, basically you're an asshole if you bind any of the "good" celestial spirits, no?

>>54498292
So you'd need 16 stars to get back to the old level of power using this DLC. Are star point costs and bonuses cumulative with previous options? Like if I went Agent, would I get 2 or 3 stars?

Though either way I don't see an advantage to this update. If I went 'all in' on any particular origin and spirit combination, taking all the drawbacks, even with cumulative stars I'd be getting 4 or 7 from the highest origin (if Civilian Agent and Outlaw are stackable, you should clarify), and 4 stars from the highest spirit type (Celestial). So 11 with the loosest interpretation. Overall, that means the 16 necessary stars are completely unobtainable to get back to a good level of power like in the previous version. Beyond that, I'm also noticing that star bonuses are NOT equalized between the options, making it incredibly imbalanced.

Overall I don't see a point in this update, it's a gigantic nerf, cutting your ability in half and requiring extreme minmaxing to get near how it used to be (though it's impossible to actually get there.) It's all negatives with no positives, so I don't see why you wouldn't just use the first version.

>>54498292
The snippets are fine, I'd just reformat it some. The ratios of the page means that sideways scrolling is required. I'm not usually one to complain about this sort of thing, but the irregular formatting requires me to actively search for the lore bits, which is slightly annoying.

I'd suggest either making the lore more regularly formatted, or making the page thinner so it fits the screen horizontally.

They're cumulative, I meant to include that but I forgot.
It's worth pointing out that choicing WITHIN games are towards the best outcome but choices OF games are not. Otherwise the only cyoa we'd ever play was the single image that just says "you become omnipotent".

>>54498408
I agree with you on the imbalance between certain options, the nerf was made because the author felt that as it stood it didn't mesh with his artistic vision.

I suppose nothing prevents you from using the old version, but you can't fault the author from wanting to make a game that pleases him.

It seems that you are taking personal offense to the changes the author is making to his own work, that you feel that the author is taking away something that is rightfully yours. Why?

>>54498450
See >>54498408 , out law is only 20 points. At post you can get back 55 points, which is still shy of the 80 you lost.

>>54498458
I don't consider having to minmax a good thing, dude. One of the points I made was that you need to minmax hardcore to even APPROACH what was lost in this version of the CYOA, which is a huge negative. Especially since, as I pointed out, none of the options are balanced against each other on the DLC page.

>>54498459
I see zero advantage or gain in this version of the CYOA, frankly. All it does is discourage actual variety and freedom of choice.

>>54498292
Martial heroes > endbringers > demonologists

No idea unfortunately, but yeah there is a lot of great art in it. Applibot is pretty good like that, Legend of the Cryptids (fantasy stuff) and Chaos Drive (sci fi) hit a lot of the same theme; stupidly attractive guys and girls with crazy designs.

>>54498422
>>54498441
Pretty good; I would suggest more minor skills, though. Like, 3 master skills (like you have) but 6 minor ones. Just a thought, cause there are so many skills that *all* assassins should have the basics of, such as "Stealth".

>>54497305

Its fun, though you might want a proofreader. The word choice and grammar is a bit futzy; spelling-wise -


For Tiger:

Frighting -> Frightening


For Fox:

Slight of hand -> Sleight of hand


For Owl:

deciet -> deceit
experienceing -> experiencing

Also, Clairvoyance is generally the ability to see far away places - the ability to see the future is precognition.
For Phoenix:

Slimple -> Simple

From the lore, it seems that the circle is complete, that demonologists > martial heroes

I mean, sure, if you tangle with an endbringer ender you're probably dead, but same as if you tangles with an accomplished demonologist.

With a demonologist against a hero of similar skill, I'd say the demonologist has the advantage. They have magic, can coordinate their summons, and have the luxury of planning an attack where the heroes are ultimately reactionary forces against wild monsters.

Yeah, there our visions clash.
I consider minmaxing the bread and butter of cyoas. It's all about advantages and trade-offs to me.
If there's a way to achieve ultimate power without trade-offs then that becomes the only viable choice and I don't like there only being one viable choice. I want everybody to have their own unique builds.
So I made it harder to go hardcore, this way it's more of a choice since some people are willing to make the sacrifice and others aren't. It says something about you what you chose and what you end up with can really be said to be yours.

>>54498422
>>54498441

I like it! I'm already toying with a build with blood magic and bezerker as a minor power. I don't want to be the boss of the eversor assassins from 40k, but a 'cyanide pill' that causes a lot of collateral damage seems to be a useful tool in an assassin's belt.

>>54498513
>I consider minmaxing the bread and butter of cyoas.
If my 'ultimate power' you mean the old point count, it's still not achievable.

That said, your minmaxing has created a situation where only one origin and spirit combination is really viable, so that's not a plus even if you like minmaxing. It creates a situation where other options might as well not exist, which is never a good thing for a CYOA.

I'm picturing something like the Morag Tong from Morrowind; legitimate but very much a part of the culture and only used in specific ways. Each master has a particular style and mine is all about the poisons, ideally delivered in a way that can't be traced (in a meal, hidden in a pillow, a thumb tack in a shoe) but if necessary by getting in close and stabbing in just the right spot.

>>54498513
Also, there's not going to be more uniqueness. Less points means that people will have to be more stringent in getting what everyone wants, which hasn't changed with this update. So now they cut corners. They don't get the extra little bits and bobs that are effected by their personality. Instead it's just a straight shot to the necessities. Variety has died.

Same here, and I prefer the new version for that very reason. Having to sacrifice for higher tiers of power makes me more interested in the CYOA.

>>54498422
Interesting cyoa... but who/who am I? Maybe you should add a small section about your own position within the guild.

>>54498544
Well, I don't agree.
Maybe if you're of the mind that halo is the only thing worth having.
But the way I see it, the path towards summoning high levels was too cheap relative to the total point amount, now that stuff actually eats from your pool so staying low tier actually becomes viable.

If a target is deemed sufficiently vile, they are killed without fanfare and as quickly and painlessly as possible, preferably in their sleep.

>>54498593
Also you seem to be ignoring the more generally applicable complaint of imbalance between origins and spirits presented in the DLC.

>>54498223
Point total arguments aside:
If I learn the ritual for, say, Jar + Bog Fairy, this allows me to drain up to 5 dots in power from the fairy. Am I restricted to the 2 dots that the Bog Fairy has, or do I get extra dots because I don't really care about the fairy's health?

Asking because I want to make an occultist build, but there aren't very many Power - demons that I can summon, so I need to figure out how many jars I'm going to need to make.

If you go high tier you're breaking rules, getting the wizard cops on your back and not keeping a lot of points for personal protection.
If you go low tier you get to be part of society, choose a variety of different minions and generally be better off. The only drawback is that you you don't get to play around with gods, but gods only end up in a very limited variety of vessels anyway so I'm okay with people going for that.

>>54498628
You can't drain more than the demon has. The idea is that you add their power to your own, but not more of it than 5.

>>54498658
>If you go high tier you're breaking rules, getting the wizard cops on your back and not keeping a lot of points for personal protection.
Personal protection doesn't matter when we're talking demons. Also, that's only if you take Outlaw, which is mandatory for minmaxing but not necessarily so. You can shoot straight to high tier without it. Oh, and problem with your 'variety' argument is that there's never any impetus for having a variety over one big demon.

>>54498658
Why would I waste one time only points on mundane life when I can just earn that later?

>>54498675
Got it, thank you.

Also, narratively speaking, I'm assuming it's possible for Diabolists to learn new rituals over time? So a diabolist could theoretically learn more rituals as time went on, even if they don't get those rituals during the CYOA? Or is should we be approaching this from the point of view that "No, this is all you get, ever"?

Except a third eye x tier 6/7/8/9 is still the best build. You're not risking anything and you get insane powers. Ymir's Mind turns you into the greatest wizard to ever live. King Winter turns you into fae royalty with an army at your command. Etc. There's no point in spending points on a squadron of low tier minions when vesseling certain demons gives you access to an army or to the ability to create your own demons.

>>54498223
Alright, here's my revised Shade Demonologist build. Since the last section says that you just shouldn't end up with a negative amount of * points and Bloodline's options all seem to lead up to the Monster option paying off all the previous options in its "tree", I'll assume it's fine to spend * points you don't have so long as the end result is 0 or +. The General options are incompatible with one another, correct?

Shame that Shades are the only demon family without any drawbacks for gaining * points.

Background: Bloodline
Family: Shades

Summons:
>Shoulder Sprite (Tier 2) * Nicolas (Tier 7) = 14
>Jar (Tier 3) * Ghoul (Tier 2) = 6
>Jar (Tier 3) * Ghoul (Tier 2) = 6
Gain 6 power.
>Third Eye (Tier 6) * Monarch (Tier 9) = 54
I choose to take up the Monarch's ability for infinite parallel thought processes.

Bloodline Fate: Cambion, Abhuman, Monster

With the Monarch's knowledge, I'll be able to progress quickly in my research on demonology. I'll still be aiming to try and one day become a powerful demon in my own right, but now I'll try and establish my family as a powerful force in whatever magical community we're in. Maybe my own cult in the future one day.

>>54498658
>>54498731
Yeah, Third Eye is the only way to increase your knowledge immediately (assuming it increases over time with research, like the occultists do) while familiars/sprites only help out with rituals and don't contribute to your own knowledge stat.

And going by the Occultist background, your knowledge leads to gaining ritual points, to put it into the framework of the CYOA. You'd accrue more power quickly from binding a demon with high knowledge into a Third Eye.

Besides that, you're not breaking any rules so long as you don't mess with the masquerade. A Third Eye vessel is a high enough tier vessel to not cause horrible problems to the world and, so long as you don't fuck around with the muggle civilizations, you're just an independent researcher of the dark arts.

As it turns out my rival and I are matched move for move and technique for technique, with his Near Death Experience clashing with my Rising Shadow Cross.

Victory!

Nah, that's Halo where you literally just become an extension of the demon. Third Eye is a merge with you as the base personality.

A merge is still altering your personality, is the thing. Turning you partway into the demon. It's identity death all the same, even if it's not a complete replacement like halo.

>>54499496

Halo doesn't replace your mind, nor does it merge it with anything. Your body becomes a part of the demon in question, but you're still a free agent. You've just essentially become a third arm of that demon that has a mind of its own and does what it wants.

> You mean for world-warping effects.
I meant more for the percentage of their power that you can use. Bound to body says that the percentage of the demon's power that the host can used is based on your intrinsic power, and that if you have none it counts as a tier 1 vessel. So if a zero intrinsic power person (like, say, an occultist) uses third eye on a tier 6 demon, do they get most of the demon's power because third eye is officially a tier 6 vessel, or do they get very little because they have no intrinsic power and thus count as a tier 1 vessel?

Halo is restricted to celestials. For non-celestials to use it, they need to take the worldbuilding traits letting them take a second family and the one in the celestial category that lets you use any vessel.

>>54499922
A third eye isn't designed for combat as much as something like a dragon. It's explicedly a tool for getting knowledge.
So yeah, that's the way I'd like to think about it. Like Bound to Body but with mind melting. There's no room to include it so it'll forever have some leeway for interpretation by the reader though.

>>54499933
Almost anyone can run a megacorporation. Have some connections and hire the right people. You're literally too big to fail. Worst case scenario you just delegate everything and throw money in the government's direction until they tilt the market in your favour.

You can normally only stick a celestial in a halo. You need to get the perk that lets you put anything in any vessel regardless of family. But to get that you need to have celestial as a family first. So in order to put non-celestials in a halo you need to both have access to two families and have the celestial perk that lets you use vessels regardless of family.

>Laser tool:
That one IS perfect. Need no actual ammo, don't need to actually license it, no recoil, practically untraceable for the next 20 or so years.

>Robot Maid:
I'm already certain 'order 89' is going to turn out way way waaaaaay worse than it sounds, but I'm a /d/eviant so as long as it's some form of sex as actually advertised I should be able to deal. I'll keep the laser gun on hand in case it's a kill-order or some shit.

>Hypernet

The robot maid already IS an AI companion, making it redundant (and kind of less useful even) Shocksuit is kind of useless if I can't sweat in it. I can probably make way more than 1 million usd or however much a pocketful of gold amounts to just by lurking the hypernet and plagiarizing it's content. If it pulls information from the future all the better.
What happened to mystery boxes 1 and 4?

1. Be Shade occultist. You now have Access to Chernabog.
2. Take Multi-Discipline. Choose Celestial. You now have access to Halo.
3. Combine Halo and Chernabog.
4. You now have a non-celestial in a halo.

Wisdom of Ouranos is for getting a Seraph in a Druidic garden or Oculus in an artefact.

It's too late I'm already planning the family. The only problem is that I don't want to infringe on Djinn territory. Still, an entire family based around the concept of love and heart's desires (with a focus on yaoi and yuri) should be posdible!

Is Cupids too silly a name?

>>54500166
I like to believe that it's a way for Tok to cope. whether he just disrepresents the criticim he got as actual butthurt to feel good before going away, wants to go out with some interesting, original reminder left (and say what you will, it is pretty original for CYOA author to leave parting, sizeable shitpost CYOA) or he actually was able to suck it up, grow a pair and now just makes fun of the whole thing blygoing back to norm - it's fun. Horribly written bu entertaining. So, thanks.

They fill my head with imaginative possibilities before I go to sleep, replacing the usually boring or stressful thoughts I'd have about going to work in the morning.

I spend very little time "playing" CYOAs. When I have bursts of *working* on CYOAs, it's generally time I would have spent on planning out D&D campaigns, or playing video games, so it's really not a net change in my quality of life. My players get less intricate campaigns, but people get to enjoy CYOAs, so it works out.

>>54500299
>>54500307
i'm sure i'll figure it out

it just seemed to me like lovecraftian forces residing outside known existence would've fit the cyoa nicely

lorewise, should I run this by you how to fit them into your power schism. it seems to me they could be a comparative neutral given their extradimensionalness. heh

this is sorta why I wanted to pass the idea off to you so you could make it fit how you'd like, but i'll figure something out. I may accidentally make a whole new cyoa. lol

- Nowhere (3%)
- Bevin lv2 (1%)

Any etiquette for posting new CYOAs? I just emerged from my eons-long lurk to throw one together and thought I'd share it before returning to the void, but I might want to wait until new thread or something?

I literally don't know what's going on. Apparently everything is edgy?
There's no one important to you so the only thing I can pick is

>Glory
That or war. The rest are edgy or awful.
>Aspect of Virtue
>Titanic
Doesn't really matter since I don't plan to use it.
>Partial incarnation, sorcery, enhanced regeneration, inspiring presence
There's nothing else I want or need
I don't want any Apostle spawn that's awful and edgy.

So I assume I'm not on Earth but I have no clue what Berserker is so I don't know what to do now.

- Xian is the world based on chinese literature where knowledge can be manifested into dao.
- Shen-Bu-Mi is the board game world made by bored conduit, modeled from games like risk and chest, also earthbending.
- Ecosystem-12 is the digital world filled with monster but with pokemon system. Computer theme and lingo are more pronounced here.
- Nowhere is the place inbetween of the worlds where concept defines everything.
- Bevin lv2: The secret of ancient conduits to upgrade Bevin, infusing it with the essence of the world you aligned with. It's simply time-stop chill zone/god of comfort style customizable Bevin.
