It does not exist, no. There was a WIP a while back, but no finished product.
So are Angels all lawful good or something? If I choose to be one, and be unambiguously Good, but also very Chaotic, how are people/angels going to react to that?
Oh, and who's a better companion? Avacyn or Nahiri?
repost of 1.3
>>47866195
Ship girls, I'm not sure I am ready for this. I'll need a new 1.
>>47865564
It got posted here awhile back. Got panned for any number of reasons, leading to it getting rejected and Babylon picking it up. Most notably it doesn't cap Essence (6+ charms are obscenities, by the time you hit 10 you're throwing around ridiculous perfect conceptual bs by so much as breathing), is dry as the Sahara flavor wise, stole at least one perk from Forgotten Realms (Experience Like a River), barely tries to balance the options, and arbitrarily groups exaltation types together for perk lines. For instance Sidereal and Lunars share a line. Babylon meanwhile is going full Warhammer Fantasy, with each individual exaltation having a perk line. He might've improved it some since it was posted here but a quick glance shows little improvement, and a lot of piling more crap on. Here's the archives of the thread it was posted in:
http://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/46672845/#46675908
Seriously, just wait for the one from Babylon, he looks like he actually knows what he's doing and isn't making a mib tier jump.
>>47866223
Nahiri is a huge cunt
>>47866230
Hellraiser.
>>47866223
Angels in Innistrad are Good, not always Lawful Good.
Most Angels in MtG are Good of various flavors. There are a few who are Neutral or Evil though.
Avacyn is Waifu Tier
Nahiri is a massive bitch
>>47866234
Also don't forget the SB Exalted allowed for Alchemical Exalted creation by Jumper, when LITERALLY ONLY AUTOCHTHON has the authority for that.

I know of gittrog he has death touch, this is a lot scarier than it appears, so I feel keeping my powers and helping the lady angel there is my best bet instead of megatoad fighting.
I cannot express how much I enjoy this jump.
Not taking avacyn with me though, she belongs here. I need to see if I can learn some of that rotspeak sorin has in the books.
>>47866248
I thought Nahiri used to be cool but ended up getting driven insane or something? I haven't kept up with the story lately, though .
>>47866235
there's a hellraiser jump?
>>47866282
If I remember correctly Nahiri is the one who's responsible for the transition from OldWalkers to NewWalkers
>>47866196
Its a reference to a meme started by Super Best Friends, which originally started as this image
>>47866315
It involves some guy named John Constantine or something. If I'm remembering wrong I suggest Food Fight.
>>47866332
That was various Planeswalkers during Time Spiral, Nahiri wasn't even a character back then.
>>47866223
nahiri basically screwed an entire world in a year she can work stone to control magical flow seal eldrich abominations and make incredible weapons and has the mental discipline to map her entire world from memory. also pretty nice person if you put the effort in in the hellvault to not have her alone for 1000 years.
avacyn is a super angel thats probably closer to a minor god and thinks in a really alien manner she gets on well with children because they are pure and uncomplicated and doesn't like smiling even when she is in fact satisfied.
angels are not unambigously good though they tend that way to the extreme they all went nuts when nahiri messed up the plane and they tend to order and community as white magic beings.
>>47866342

No you will never be able to claim your waifu is better because she is shit and always will be shit.
>>47866378
Don't you have like 50 waifus?
>>47866282
she got in a fight with Sorin he overreacted big time locked her in a dark abyss for a millennium and when she got out she had gone from oldwalker to newwalker and her world had died because she wasn't there to save it. I would be pissed too.

Will Rest In Peace prevent things like liches from rezzing?
Would anyone look forward to a Trigun jump if it hasn't already been called? I've been working on one for an hour or so but I figured I'd better pop in and double check before I get carried away.
>>47866509
i'll give it
>>47866503
Some people don't mind evil anon.
>>47866568
I have no idea how you'd do that, but I would indeed look forward to it. I also don't think it has been called.
>>47866594
What happens if you take Vampiric Body without being a Vampire?
>>47866554
yes rest in peace stops all raising of the dead body and spirit for consecrated bodies
Could I use the Dark Wisdom perk from Overlord to eventually train up to 5 Arcanum in each category in the Mage: the Awakening jump?
>>47866616
twice peak human strength +silence field
>>47866650
Regularly training Arcanum + having a fuckboatload of time ought to be of help enough, but Dark Wisdom will definitely reduce the amount of time needed.
>>47866662
I think people asked if silence field is anti-magic or anti-speech
>>47866677
I thought that regularly with 5 gnosis (which is the max), you could only reach 5 in three Arcana?
>>47866689
How many Arcana are there though
>>47866701
10: Death, Fate, Forces, Life, Matter, Mind, Prime, Space, Spirit, and Time
>>47866685
oh christ did i miss something. noise only silence like nightgaunts.
>>47866549
Is there even a Lilo and Stitch Jump?
>>47866701
Ten.
If the jumpmaker had capped it at Mastery there'd be no problem, but they capped Gnosis which has all sorts of run on effects, including being unable to get the third attainments from legacies. They're then making some way to get around that for a DLC. A lot of work for such an easy fix.

Nah, I'm just fucking with you. Nobody has even talked about it, so it's all yours.
>>47866520
So I apparently need a new Slot 2.
>>47866804
actually there aren't enough drawbacks i'll add 3-5 more.
>>47866773
Doable but you'd need to really work for it.
>>47866804

Seriously, all they had to do was disallow archmastery and the jump would have been fine.
Also, why is the jump in the imageless folder? Didn't the jumpmaker upload it there without posting it to the thread?
>>47866724
There's not a Lilo and Stich jump, but I guess you could use the Disney Princess jump if you wanted. Choosing Stitch, who's from a scifi-ish story, in one of the positions could make a nice contrast if all the other characters are from magic based settings.
Or someone could just make a Lilo and Stich jump if they wanted. Could be fun. Maybe drawing on the animated series if they're having trouble coming up with stuff from just the movie or the sequel.
>>47866911
Until someone here makes a better Mage The Awakening jump, it's all we have.
and besides, ASA made a build for it. For most of the people here who worship him, that validates the jump.
>>47866911
>>47866927
The thread in general was in favor of it being allowed after looking at it. Though I think you're just the same guy stirring shit and attacking a name so this is pointless.
>>47866650
Probably not since the cap on gnosis is jump fiat.
>>47866918
There's also the anime series.
>>47866911
Yeah, that would have been the better answer.
Also it was uploaded here. I think they did limit the times you can take the 'stay here' drawback though.
It's a pretty good jump, so I think it's staying. If he tries to update it again without going through thread I don't think that'll fly though.Also, we had shitposters going on about it for a while then when things calmed down people seemed fine with it. Please don't try to stir up that argument again.

>>47866983
Son, I been makin' comments on thread treating ASA as the God of Power-Gaming before Scatovore came around.
If you're gonna call me a shitposter, at least place me on a higher calibre of shitposting.
>>47866945
Just because I don't like thread rules being ignored by some spacebattles chucklefuck who openly dislikes the thread doesn't mean I'm a samefag.
>>47866965
And the updated version wasn't posted to the thread.
>>47867011
If you've been doing it for longer then you're lower because you're even more persistent cancer.
>>47867030
And people were fine with that. Live with it.
>>47867011
Scatovore has been haunting us since the Hitman Reborn Jump. If anything you're a petty imitation - a tiny turd totem before the idol that is our god of shit.
>>47866725
I'd wank until the DLC comes out that you can reach third attainment anyway. That's really the only major thing that Gnosis 5 messes up badly. The lack of 6+ attributes doesn't really matter for a jumper, 7 spells active at once before getting into minor pool penalties isn't a particularly hard cap, and the cap also serves to make it so you actually have to prioritize Arcana instead of having all but two at 5.
>>47866955
I was thinking that Dark Wisdom would let you learn spells (does MtAw use spells? If not, Arcana) that you'd reguarly need >5 gnosis for.
So, ladies, gentlemen, jumpers.
Now that I have the ability to Create an Avacyn-tier Angel once per Jump to act as a Protector, and Hero of Justice, I got to thinking.
How will some worlds react to this being?
Resident Evil?
A Song of Ice and Fire?
Doom?
>>47867030
Doesn't retroactively invalidate the Jump. We vetted it, we're not going to in-vet it no matter how much you whine.
>>47867055
Murder.
>>47867043
Why are we erecting idols to assholes.
>>47867066
I don't know, anon. Why are we erecting idols to assholes? Why have we been erecting idols to assholes for two years?
>>47867066
Because some people wanna give The Booty the respect it deserves
>>47867053
The limit on Arcana dots is explicitly impossible to circumvent. Might help you some with creating rotes without mastery though. Rotes for reference turn spells into Attribute+Skill+Gnosis instead of just Arcana+Gnosis. They're especially handy for jumpers considering most jumpers have absurd stats.
>>47867066
>>47867095
I don't know, but I suspect it has something to do with /b/ and goatse, someone should invent a time machine and preform research.
>>47866876
They aren't they are mandatory for vampires and they only get half cp it why the get a little more stuff you can take them in any background.
>>47866890
NEVAR!!!
Have a next version.
What kind of power can you actually give out with Take Shelter Beneath My Wings and Blessing, or just Blessing? Do you weaken yourself if you protect a dozen people? A hundred? Thousands or more? Can you give a sliver of a perk, or is it a generic energy? Your MTG magic?
Man Endless Legend's interface is a big opaque starting out.
I don't even remember my build for the jump though. Probably a torture mage.
>>47867319
The link decided not to be there.
>>47867283
Are there any perks that are good for keeping you from becoming collateral damage? Something like plot armor against things not directed at you?
>>47867283
What's under Undiscounted? Appears to be lacking both a name and a cost.
>>47867283
Angel Perk is still lacking its' name and 1000CP price tag
>>47867352
Yes. Not recalling any that do it passively, but I think Ranma has one that lets you know where to stand to avoid the fallout of stuff you aren't involved in. Might be misremembering, but there's at least two perks like that somewhere.
Beyond that, crazy regen?
>>47867283
You might want to give some other items to the non-vampire backgrounds, maybe one thing? They get the Silver Dagger which werewolves wouldn't like, while Vampires get a weapon and armor free.
Maybe a pendant of Avacyn with a bit of protection in it? Also do you need to buy a land in order to use Angel powers?
>>47867352
Naruto has one. It keeps you from dying in anticlimactic manner, so I'd say getting vaporised for being in the wrong spot would qualify.
>>47867352
Naruto has a perk that makes it so you literally can't be killed unless its dramatic enough.
Alright, small Killing Floor update. Added the Railgun from the new update, and revised Respawning a bit. That's it.
>>47867430
Are you and/or Head still planning to do Overwatch?
>>47867430
So wait, we kill them... and then they fall onto the floor?
>>47867444
Some point soon. We'd like to see more lore from Blizzard before we go all the way, though. We're gonna try to really go nuts on it
>>47867352
Metallocalypse has Rock It Soft, which flat out protects you from anything 'disaster' up to the level of a natural disaster, as long your aren't the specific target for it.
>>47867283
What does Volaren Decadence actually do? If it only lets you throw bitching parties, it doesn't quite seem up to par with the other 200 cp perk.
>>47867283
So can I learn how to summon in-jump?
ok i am out of free pdf converters so questions then naptime.
>>47867283
Can you unmake your vampire children with Unmaking? What was the logic behind the cap on The Beginning of a Bloodline?
>>47867496
i will retool that in the morning i know what i need to do its a socialite perk allows you to basically up your swag no matter what you have when entertaining guests might swap it with falkenrath. or add the animal shifting the voldarens do
When I first read the LoT jumps, I thought Cultist Chan is just annoying and is dumb. I imagined her in fantasy cultist robes and such.
THEN I actually googled "Cultist Chan" after finding out she's actually got her own design.
My life has never been the same ever since.
The next day, snakes started manifesting in my house.
>>47867528
Are the prices on Lands final? I'm just wondering why all of them are 400 when some give two colors while others only give one.
Are you planning to do the other color combinations, or is what's there it?
>>47867538
yes to the unmaking
bloodline is basically how edgar first turned humans into vampires on innistrad if thats what your asking.
>>47867478
That one certainly sounds good, not exactly what I am looking for but it certainly helps.

>>47867478
Why are there two jumps for that setting?
>>47867581
She's cute as a button and tries her best.
>>47867634
Coincidence. Two people were independently working on one and posted it more or less at the same time.
>>47867634
They were made and released at the same time independently of each other.
>>47867634
They came out at like the exact same time and both jumpmakers were cool about it, so there's two.
It's unique case, and will almost certainly never happen again.
>>47867596
Read the Lands, they give various effects.
I agree that the one-mana ones could do with maybe a boost to on par with the 2-mana granters, but there's benefits to them besides mana.
>>47867528
For the Archmage Angel boost in power, are you as powerful as the three sisters together, or any one of them? And how strong is that?
>>47867596
other mtg jumps will give other lands. lands have a set price because they have add on effects and carry through jumps. ay add the other dual colour combos in an update after eldrich moon.
>>47867381
they get 2 free items and an extra 600cp item but have to take 600cp of drawbacks for 300cp it should balance out unless i'm an idiot.
>>47867353
fixed
>>47867526
no
>>47867692
>no
Any particular reason why? What if I run into a Planeswalkers who knows how?
Summoning isn't something just planeswalkers can do.
>>47867692
Ok then.
Do you need them to do your angel abilities? Could you combine them a bit, like having the Slayers Stronghold appear in the Moorland Haunt at the site of the tower?
>>47867758
blue mouth
>>47867621
prevent stupid shit with things like WoD antidiluvians at full power.
>>47867685
Any one of them. not all 3 together
>>47867721
actually hadn't considered that. the answer was i couldn't remember any out and out summoning on innistrad but if you can find a willing teacher sure.
>>47867748
lands can be tapped for mana across distance you don't need to be near them.
>>47867787
I can't remember, does Garrick come to Innistrad before being cursed? He could probably teach how to summon, since that's his whole schtick.
imma sleep now will try and answer questions this evening after i wake
>>47867787
I mean do you need one that gives White mana to use your Angel powers, to do things like Blessing and Warding, or pass the 'energy' along to do the same with the capstone?
I was also meaning if I can have them appear in new jumps in the one spot. I don't care if you can't and know there's no distance on it, I'm just curious if you don't buy any lands do you have no mana/magic at all? If that's the case you might want to give one free just so they can actually use their magics, like the story capstone if you need to have a blue land.
>>47867787
How does being an Angel interact with Vampire Perks?

Elves in LoTR can't really die. They're just leaving for the other continent. And physically and intellectually, they are and always have been better than humans.
>Leaders have to hide.
So does everyone's. Did you miss how in LoTR a lot of the actions had to be done specifically by the common people because they'd be unexpected?
>>47866568
Are you doing it on based on the anime or original manga?
>>47868498
When Humans die, which Elves are incapable of, they go to the side of Eru Illuvanar. God, for all intents and purposes.
Elves have to sit around in Mandos' Halls and mope.
>>47868510
Humans are forced to leave the world to be with God, yes. Which is a horrible and dull fate. Paradise is torture.
Elves are eventually allowed to leave Mandos' Halls to roam Valinor again.

>>47868520
So being God's Favorite is a Negative because....It's boring in your personal opinion?
>>47868456
Damn, this is good stuff.
>>47868520
I think the closest LOTR would have to a Mary Sue, given the original meaning that required both (1) perfect/idealized character and (2) young or low-ranking person with unrealistic abilities would be, and the current meaning that seems to be basically "this is the author's wish-fullfilling self-insert"...
Hmm. Frodo? Aragorn? Legolas? Samwise? Tom Bombadil? Do any of them really fit?
>>47868538
Do you know how Christian heaven is actually described in the Bible? It's sitting around in a boring, static dimension, doing nothing but praising god 24/7 while feeling enforced rapture. It's hellish.
And the Elves can claim humans are favored of Eru, but at the end of the day elves are given all the gifts. All of them. In every single way they are vastly superior to humans, and this is supposed to be counterbalanced by humans dying faster, of all things.
>>47868569
The original meaning is solely for bad self-inserts. Tolkien's self-insert is Beren, who himself isn't a particularly bad character, he's not perfect and unflawed.
>>47868585
If they're born with those gifts, how are they blameworthy? Its not like they stole them from humans.
>>47868585
Humans are also supposed to be part of Eru's next world creation project, while the elves aren't allowed to take part in it.
>>47868615
We're blaming them as an aspect of the narrative.
>>47868618
Correction: Elves do not know what happens to them when Arda dies. Only humans were promised to be part of the next world, Elves don't know. They however have faith that they will, and get to be superior to humans in the next world and everything. This trusting faith is obviously meant to mirror a good Christian's towards God. And considering who Tolkien was, I doubt very much that he would've wanted the elves to have seriously died with Arda.

And just when I think I don't have the dumb today, I roll the wrong die.
Jumpers a question I have for you. What do you think of Immortality? Is it a blessing or a curse to you?
Don't you think that seeing those you have bonds with grow old and die while you say the same as a horrible way to live? Those that stood by you disappearing one by one because of disease, battle, leaving you for their own path, or perhaps the sands of time took them.
Or do you see it as a opportunity? Being able to live and see how you could change the world or experience all that the world has to offer and whatever the future holds. Perhaps being a person who keeps records of all the humanity had to offer to show to the future generations.Sorry if this sounds like some stupid first year psych student bullshit I am just curious on how living for so long could still appeal to some Jumpers.
>>47868706
>I don't know who you are
A question I ask myself. The voices haven't revealed much too me.Though if it helps your curiosity,I do go by Roboanon when people have questions regarding my jumps
>how you are doing this

...and photoshop 7.
>>47868735
>Yeah, photoshop-anon's top-tier.
I appreciate the praise, but this isn't really anything special. Photoshop makes this really easy.
You're the one who has the creative narrative going on. You can consider all these edits as a thank you for the entertainment.
>>47868865
Well, the fact that I move onto a new world every decade certainly helps. It's rare that I'm in a jump long enough to see people die of old age.
Has some of the same pitfalls, though, in that eventually all the new faces start swimming together.
>>47868865
Beings you leave a world every ten years, and age typically resets when you do, I don't think this problem will come up. Once your chain is over you can probably cook up some homebrew immortality as well. Before then, if you buy the right perks.
>>47868839

Rolled 50 (1d74)
>>47868895
It could be worse.
>>47868828
The only reason they didn't get mind-controlled by their rings was because theirs weren't made by Sauron. And they still had to hide them because Celebrimbor cribbed off Sauron's notes so if the latter got a good enough look he could hijack them.
>>47868908
Okay then they're special snowflakes because they're the only race that could make their own.
You're digging the whole deeper anon.
>>47868906
Of course it would be while delivering presents in Kung Fury. Why wouldn't it be?
>>47868865
I see it as an opportunity, seeing as I can change countless worlds in different ways, read every book in all of them, develop skills to their logical extreme, and create new works to improve peoples lives. I couldn't do any of that if I lived a normal 80-100 Year life. It probably helps that I never really easily related to people or made connections with them in the first place, and the person I spend the most/ any significant amount of time in is just as if not more immortal. Not to mention my allies probably won't permanently succumb to any of those if they do not wish to, since the earlier mentioned companion is the Maid of Life/ A Cleric/ Level One Hundred + Realm of Heroes Divine Caster, and I pass out Symbiotes like candy on Halloween. Of course, if someone I like finds dying to be their best option, I won't take that from them.
>>47868865
It's a thing, preferable to the alternative regardless of any opportunity. I've never seen losing people to be more traumatic than my memories of those people being beneficial. I've never found the downsides of Immortality to be so great as many other people seem to in the first place. So regardless of the entire, not dying aspect, it comes out a positive on basically all counts in the first place.
>>47868865
Immortality is a curse if you have no one to share it with
>>47868865
Anon, I'm a bit of dino, so I've had a few people leave or die on me long before I even started jumping. And I think you're kind of looking at it the wrong way. RL has plenty of ways to off you before you can get bored, without you having much say n the matter. Jumping on the other hand not only gives you perks to resist being offed, it gives you more opportunities to avoid being bored, and the cherry on top is the possibility of being able to share some of that - including immunity to age and disease, and even coming back from death itself - with those you love back home.
Jumpers! For those of you who've jumped LoTR, how many of you yoinked the Arkenstone? A show of hands everyone.
Myself, I took Steven Universe right after, and what do you know, I have a very fancy jewel lying around...
>>47868865
Immortality is only a curse when you have nothing new to experience or no goals to achieve. With the infinite variety of worlds open to a jumper this is never a problem. There is always something new to discover, someone new to meet, someone stronger to fight, and the challenge of the obtaining the spark to drive you on when you're feeling lost.
As for people dying or being left behind the greatest lesson of the jump chain is that the joy is in the journey. Their journey may intersect with mine for a time, and I may be able to completely change their life for good or bad with my power, but it is not my place to take away the joys of challenge and personal attainment by simply giving them everything they wanted. It is their life to live and I can only hope that my part in it made things more interesting for them.
The only issues are it is easy to lose your sense of self when you get entirely new memories from different a personality uploaded most every jump, and when the people you meet would literally die of old age before they can listen to all of your adventures and comprehend your character in a meaningful fashion it is hard to have meaningful relationships. Companions are a thing though and thank the Benefactor for that.
Dragonlance Question: What's the exact difficulty of the quest Epiphany requires to introduce a divine magic system to a setting?
To put it in D&D terms, about what level of a quest is it, with how big of a party?
>>47868865
It's a blessing and a curse. A terrible privilege.
It won't sadden me to see friends and family go, as long as they had full, joyous lives and accomplished everything they wished. Most people I meet don't wish to live forever. Those that do I will offer the cursed blessing.
With an infinite amount of time, I can do truly limitless amounts of things, and help an infinite number of other people.
I could compose a wealth of knowledge that has never been witnessed before or since.
I could create works so great that my name will be forever spoken in hushed tones, at the marvel of my craftsmanship.
But those are just the carrots in this situation.
The stick is that I'm unsure of what would happen to me if I died at this point. My soul and metaphysical makeup, in addition to the questionable things I've done, make it a real puzzle of where I would go. On the off chance that I may be facing oblivion or eternal suffering, the prospect of dying is a completely unacceptable.
tl;dr
Immortality is awesome and sucks at the same time.
I'd give immortality to people I care about who want it.
I'm scared of dying.
>>47869054
Nah, I'd lost my magpie tendencies by the time I jumped LOTR. Took holos though.There's also the possibility, at least in the books, that it could be a Silmaril, in which case it /might/ be needed at the end of the world to restore the light of Arda depending on whether you accept the prophecies as canon and valid.

The OTHER other other 25% is to find someone to hang out with. Speaking of which: "Hey Loki, how's it going? Boy, have I got a deal for you..."
>Stars and Stones (0)
"How would you like to not have to worry about your power being reduced by lack of worshippers? I mean... you won't get stronger without worshippers, but at least you won't get weaker, yeah?"
>Best Ale in Chicago (Free, Sorcerer)
"Now about about we sit back, have a couple of beers, and then I go stir up some shit? There's this floating city that just appeared over Lake Michigan..."
As far as Job Offer in future jumps... I definitely plan on using it to grant others positions as my Emissaries. For now, well, I’m an agent of chaos. Nothing new about that!

What a strange build.

Speaking of cities that appear over Lake Michigan: yes, Carcosa is now floating over Lake Michigan. The joys of using magic to cloak the city means that no one who doesn't have their own supernatural abilities can detect it, because during Sword and Sorcery I realized what a horrible idea it is to have everyone see it from the start. And I don't even visit it very often, I'm just... a temporary ambassador. It's basically following me around and doing nothing except being neat, but there is a LOT of fast talking that has to be done out of the gate to keep people from magically nuking it.
Speaking of temporary ambassadors, Loki may be much diminished in power, but there are enough crazies who worship that particular pantheon to give him SOME measure of power, even if it is a shadow of what it once was. Having someone who can break the rules like that? Well, as long as he doesn't stir up too much, it won't be too bad. Considering his behavior, he was probably part of the Winter court to begin with, so it's no surprise that favors are owed there. Hopefully breaking that rule for him will be the first of the three favors, since going that far is too much to expect from a mere servant.
Honestly... a lot of what I'll be doing is subtle nudges. Saving a couple lives here, making a few werewolves have optional transformations there, and... well. Testing my revolver on Outsiders. Revolvers worked just fine in the Civil War, after all. Even if I have to live in a cabin in the woods otherwise, to avoid breaking things all around me.
And god help anyone who points any weapon more advanced than a revolver or a lever action rifle at me. The Hex has its upsides. And man, I am DEFINITELY keeping this for later use. Can you imagine using the Hex in any high tech setting? In fact, I'm going to save this for Star Wars, I want to see the look on the face of a sith when their lightsaber fizzles and dies.
