Welcome to the Accidental Magical Girl thread!
Various worlds and multiverses have become connected together via the mysterious Overcity, a sprawling landscape inhabited by monsters and magical beings. Girls and boys endowed with their new supernatural powers can work together solving conflicts that arise!
>This is NOT a greentext adventure style CYOA with one GM and thread posting to dictate the adventure, but rather a hub thread for multiple storycrafters to use. A majority of activity (including campaigns) instead happens in the IRC, which is open for newbies to join.
Characters can be rolled with either the CYOA's purple PDF which is intended as a writing prompt and is in the process of developing an independent auxiliary combat system, or AMGC's blue pdf which contains combat rules for PNP campaigns along with the rolls. The IRC mostly uses AMGC.
Post builds, roleplay, write stuff.

The CYOA's Patron Module, which determines just who bestows your character's magical abilities. But be wary, for not all of these patrons are after your best interests...
This PDF is for AMGC 1.12, used for PnP in the IRC.
>Features 10 additional powers and 20 extra perks, as well as combat actions, point buy, and more.

What is your opinion on Puchuu-Magical girl relationships?
>>47573417
KILL MAIM BURN
>>47573417
If you mean relationships in the broad sense, then I like them to generally be somewhat positive. At the very least, There should be some measure of respect and care, even if it's possibly onesided or a product of circumstance and/or convenience..
Alternately, if you mean that in the sense of romantic relationships, then it can work, though it's difficult. An experienced puchuu is pretty much a no-go if you want to avoid the relationship having manipulative undertones. Therefore, a younger sort of puchuu is ideal.
It's also pretty degenerate if the puchuu can't turn into a humanoid. I mean, it's already weird to be dating your effective boss even when you're the same species, let alone two vastly different ones.
No dying.
>>47573417
There's a lot of variance there and possible ways to run that. You can take PMMM's tack with Kyuubi, or even the Red/Pink Doc's take on Puchuu and they're all goal focused to the extreme and don't really care about any hardships or problems the girls have. This leaves them somewhat aloof, but not hostile.
They could be a giant bag of dicks, actively hostile to you for killing or putting their previous charge out of action, and costing them resources to put you in their place.
They could actually be friendly and caring, respectful and helpful, like Artemis or Luna from Sailor Moon, or Kerebos from CCS - providing a useful dialog foil without being much use in combat.
In general, I would assume the Puchuu to be aloof and goal focused, with both the hostile and friendly Puchuu being outliers.
>>47575958
Yes, I meant romantic.
>>47580715
People are actually using that goddamn forced "u kiled a superhuman bean" plot element???
It makes no fucking sense to me. Your magical girls are born that way and just brought up the way they are.
>>47567240
Who is this qt? Someone was posting more pictures of her a thread or two ago.

Hi, it's Torque. Feel free to PM me if you want, I'd rather you didn't leave. Hope nothing I said or did contributed to this, I was playing around with all the Tera crap.
Why aren't the mods doing anything in IRC? I never remember shit being this ridiculous before
Ban people causing drama and making others leave.
>>47648233
We operate under a "3 Strike System". Which in theory would work fine if we had more Mods to administer said Strikes. But we've only got the two. They can't be around all the time, and will often miss the drama that goes on when they aren't there.
And the community is actually pretty small in the first place. Banning people immediately would likely thin the numbers drastically.
That's just my two cents here.
>>47649837
I don't think it's a big issue, seems like the frequent offenders could use a couple warnings and then we'd be good.

IT'S HAPPENING
>>47659507
>>47659521
Changes:
BASE DOC:
Origins are in now - choose why the Puchuu get interested in you, and thereby skip one, several, or even all rolls later in chargen.
Familiar is no longer a Power. It has been reduced to a perk. It wasn't really on the level of other powers. Minor rewording of the text.
Twin Soul is no longer a perk, it is a Power. Minor rewording of some of the text in it for coin spending, and a clarification that spell effects can hit both you and your twin with one shot.
Big Friend is no longer a perk.
Allies now gives you the choice of a single Magical Girl with several coins, or a Monster Girl with no coins.
Power Artifact is a new perk, allowing you to duplicate a minor spell or attack from another spec.
>PATRONS:
Solo now able to be gotten via random roll.
Several editing mistakes corrected.
Monster benefits given greater stat upgrades to better compete with Second Spec.
>>47636512
>Dice, why?
Sounds like you need to pick 1.5's SMUG option.
>>47640423
Sailor Moon. My first and still favorite of the mahou shoujo stuff. I've probably got some serious nostalgia goggles for it though, considering I haven't watched an actual episode in years.

Noticed a spelling error, 'disgustngly' on the first page:
"You’ve gained the unfortunate attention of a puchuu - a disgustngly cute marshmallow
and animal hybrid. "
Looks really nice otherwise!
>>47659632
Thanks! I knew there would be some, and I'm probably going to make a balance change or two - I'll be making editing changes over the next week as folks spot them and say something and then drop 1.51.

>There are whispers that there is a similar higher or lower dimensional hub for wild locations, that even the wild monsters not blessed with intelligence use.
>Nothing has ever confirmed this rumor, but it crops up whenever a stupid monster gives magical girls the slip in a natural setting.
Vikku inhabits the dimensional reality behind such rumors, a savage counterpart to the Overcity, which she simply calls "the Wyld."
Spatial instabilities are causing many Overcity dwellers and travellers, including monsters and magical girls, to interact with her homeworld - far too many for her liking.
As these occurences are increasing, and since she swore to protect the Wyld from any such invasions, it was not surprising that she would attempt to find the solution to this problem in the Overcity itself.
Unfortunately, she wasn't too experienced with automobiles, so the good folks of the Wyld had to find a replacement...
>>47659507
As always, time to make a roll. Standard death reason.

For Emergency:
"Choose two non-artifact Combat Perks. You may shift other perk rolls to the Combat table for free."
Does this mean you get +2 free Combat Perks, or you can switch two non-Combat table perks to those perks for free?
>>47659932
Your first two rolls on the Combat table are chosen instead of rolled for. If you wish, you can shift the next two rolls that would normally be Support to the Combat for free.
>>47659906
And with this, we're PROPERLY done... also due to what QB has said, these girls end up only -2'ing at worst on stats instead of recursive stat degradation as I was originally thinking. So, for everyone's comical gamebreaking pleasure:

In the rules explanation part with Mana "Specialization, each use of
her specialization costs as much mana as specified in the related spell trees,"
So, is there any document with the said trees or does the GM have to rule all costs?
>>47663939
It's in the OP:
>Spec Trees (spells for all 19 normal Specializations, updated often):
https://titanpad.com/FUjuIO6cfH
>>47662379
They do run on death origin, as well as the weapoin +1. 1st goes 3 agi to 5 agi, 2nd should have 8 I did mess that one up, 3rd has +1 str for 2 to 5 (and then the only body type for +str, everyone else uses overdeveloped for vit), 4th has +1 vit for 6 to 8, and the last also has it for 12 to 14.
The death background coin is used on the 2nd of the five, to move regeneration to twin. After that, all 4 bronze are used as well on twins. Then the gold and base 3 silver are used on stats.
Rolled 4 (1d20)
>>47666821
Come to think of it, I forgot to roll for Singularity's patron...
Hey QB, for Power Artifact:
"You have an artifact that can duplicate a trick from another specialization."
Is this intended to be a single 'trick' that it does, or is it meant to reproduce a minor function from any specialization?
>>47662357
Why do people seem to have such a hate-on for point-buying? Sometimes people want to create a character with a concept already in mind, rather than rolling and then working from there.
>>47667782
It can either be a minor utility function, or a single attack from ONE other specialization.
>>47667946
Well half the attraction, I felt in this CYOA is that it's meant to be largely up to fate as to what you get, and point buy tends to encourage people arguing over what the 'best' build is. So point buy is kind of antithetical to that feeling. Origins are meant to be a midpoint, giving you a certain amount of control over your concept without necessarily removing the majority of random elements or costing you coins.
I actually agree that point buy shouldn't be gimped for AMGC, as that's about building characters to play with rather than to write about, but the CYOA keeps it because it's thematic.
>>47659507

v1.4 of the SCS will include these updates. I wanted the GM's guide out so that it could be the crown update to v1.4, but QB beat me this time.
Speaking of, the GM's guide is coming along pretty well, all things considered. No precise ETA on it yet, but I'm expecting it out sometime this month or very early next month.
>>47659571
>Monster benefits given greater stat upgrades to better compete with Second Spec.
Oh, that's good. I was actually getting worried about that in SCS testing. This will help even the playing field a lot, although might have the side effect of making Corrupted Monster Girls a little too stat-heavy. If that happens, I'll pull some stats out of the Corrupted Mutations and see if that helps.
As usual, good shit, QB.

It's hardly gimped, you get to choose options that synergize relative to the random perks and so forth you get otherwise.

Whoa, nelly!
>>47676960
I don't entirely agree, sometimes a roll just can't be made to fit a concept you want. But it's usually better to scrap bits of the original idea or make something wholly new out of the roll, I think.
Rolled 4, 13, 16, 4, 17, 11, 9, 9, 2, 16, 7, 7 = 115 (12d20)

Come back, man.
So this is a group where guys roleplay magical girls?
How hard is it to get involved, and how friendly are you guys to newcomers?
Also, what are the typical times of activity for this stuff?I work, so I only get to be around rather late at night.
>>47682480
Check the IRC~
#MGCYOA on rizon
Easy as dropping in and saying hi, and fairly friendly.
Late evenings EST are the peak zone but there's usually someone around all the time.
Jesus, that was way more complicated than I thought it would be!
How's this for a character? All good?

As promised yesterday, here's the SCS v1.4 update. I'm informed that somehow the v1.3 update didn't make it to threador maybe the thread just fell off before the usual guy archived it, but this is indeed SCS v1.4.
In addition to the addition of the new mechanics for the shifted-around Perks and Powers, there are 10 new Relic items that will be more important when the GM's Guide is released.
The OC&FF Expansion has been pretty much unchanged for this version, but for the sake of consistency I'll be posting the v1.4 version of it shortly.
>>47684238
And here's the OC&FF Expansion. Mostly typo fixes in this version.
As always, questions, comments, and concerns regarding the game system are appreciated.
Never accept compromise. Bully until you get your way.

I've RPed at tables for tabletop games before, but I'm not sure what to expect from this. So what do you guys /do/ exactly?
>>47687407
Most roleplay is in a sort of bar setting. Angst over losing your family, find a cute magical girlfriend and meet the crazy magical girlfriends of others, and sometimes fight monsters. There's lots of tension between girls who took a black coin for power and girls who took the white which turns into in character arguments of morality.
Longer campaigns aren't really popular and most fights don't last too long.
>>47687535
>Most fights don't last too long
Don't lie to the poor guy. They can last quite a while. 1v1 is short, start adding in more people and it takes a long time.
>>47686403
wk stop being lewd
>>47687688
Compared to traditional tabletop games, where fights can last multiple sessions, there's an attempt to make things brief.
>>47659521
Why aren't the servants of Horrors corrupted? It seems like they would be more predisposed than any to spreading chaos and supporting monsters.

O(n^2) dependency is a hell of a scaling factor.
>>47687688
Depends on the players and enemies.
>>47682480
Timezones will basically make that "only able to be there late at night" work out just fine.

What makes sense for a character's fashion sense?
>>47695011
Look into the character background and personality
Characters with a lot of money or an affluent can afford to have nicer end clothes and experiment with style
Shy characters might like darker or neutral clothing that hides their figure
Athletic characters need to have form fitting sportswear
Peppy characters who like to socialize wear the biggest trend, like crop tops
>>47695267
Useful. More examples? This character probably falls under fairly affluent but not exorbitantly so.
>>47695300
Reasonably priced clothing means being able to shop at the next level from Kmart or TJMax. Thrifting could still be a viable hobby to find weird trendy stuff thats thrown away and making a lookbook profile out of it
Or going through the sale section of very nice clothers, think Neiman Marcus
Beige, neutrals, and whites with pastel accents usually make up the country club chic look. Lighter clothing hides less stains and is quicker to show wear and tear, suggesting the owner can replace it on a whim or has enough money for professional laundering
There may be more pressure to dress modestly depending on the background. No booty shorts for the wealthy, but slimfit moto leggings cropped at the ankle? Fuck yeah. Lots of khakis, crops, capris
Womens tennis and golfwear summarizes the palette and style of the upper middle class
Also a lot of pleated cotton clothing. Pretty much 0 texture variation there
>>47695300
Jeans and a t-shirt.
>>47695904
That's like the peanut butter of character outfits. Hoping to try something a bit more original for her tastes.

>What makes sense for a character's fashion sense?
Clothes make the magical girl.
You are your clothing, you wear your person.
>>47697341
Parasite mong clothing girls when?
>>47697341
Well, yeah, but I'm talking about the character's untransformed mundane clothing tastes.

So now that AMGC updated, when will MG Core do so? I like having stats for my everything.
>>47705083
To be precise, AMGC is AMG Core. Zene has a titanpad on potential updates that's currently open for comments.
>>47705083
The creators of AMGCore are MIA but all the official updates are handled by Zene now.

Hot dates with super hunks?
So, I was invited to a game of Magical Burst a while ago. Went and found the alpha for 5 and what the actual fuck happened? It's gone full tumblr. Did the guy making it have a break down or something?
Asking here because it's the only place it'd be relevant in, what with both being about magical girls and all.
>>47723805
Whaddya mean "full Tumblr"? Are the characters all overweight lesbians with pink hair now?
>>47723805
>Did the guy making it have a break down or something?
You know more about him than I ever will, so how about you ask him?
>>47723978
Here ya go.
>>47724105
No, I meant the guy writing the game.
>>47724134
I'm not reading the whole thing, but I take it you're talking about stuff like this.
>If you’re playing with people you know well you may not need to say it, but if there’s anything you think could come up in the game that would make you unduly comfortable, you can say so now. If something comes up later you can have that conversation then too of course. There are any number of topics that could come up that would be uncomfortable or even triggering even without having girls as protagonists.
And yeah, that's a really shitty way of wording it, but it shouldn't be enough to ruin the whole game. Just see if the game mechanics work fine, then take it from there.
>>47723805
Magical Burst is a shit system, but do tell what went wrong?
>>47724134
I just quickly glanced through that pdf, and the only things I noticed during my brief lookthrough that seem tumblr-esque was what >>47724259
sait and the section on gender. Both seem pretty easy to ignore desu. I think that it'd still play just find; just get a group that isn't going to be complaining about triggers and genders.
