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.

Ah. What a nice jontron reference.
Anyway folks, I'd like to discuss here something I've been proposing in chat.
I've been doing the mess around with two systems, White Wolf and D20, and what I've discovered is that AMGC is using a very watered down version of White Wolf. What is White Wolf used on?
Well anon, I'm glad you asked.
White Wolf is a system common between three different games, two of them being semi related. World of Darkness, Mage, and Exalted.
I have witnessed a game of Mage, and what I saw was actually quite interesting and would pherhaps be compatible with what is now being used for AMGC.
And what it was, was a system of skills that played into the number of die you had for a specific stat roll. I believe that upon creation, you are given a limited number of skill points to attribute in many places.
While the character sheet presents many, these skills are directly correlated with a stat that the character has, and depending on the action, you get extra die to roll on your stat.
An example of this would be, that a STR mahou has a 3 skill points in weight lifting, therefore removing objects out of the way or breaking things would make her have 3 additional die on her roll.
Not only that, but the DM to these sessions has a flexible threshold of success depending on the difficulty of the task. 5s and 6s could be successes if the task proves to not be something daunting for girls and boys that enhanced with magic to the point of inhumane mastery of a specific attribute.
And with this, I ask all of you for your input.
Side note: Lynnia, Sahara, Avari, Tian, and Ai-n, I miss all of y'all a lot. I really wanted to show off my greatsword loli in Tera to some of you little fucks.
>>47779171
Link us the loli? For research.
And good luck with your plan.

>>47779171
I know there's a fanon magical girl NWOD splat. I'm sure how good it is but it does seem popular.
I think the magical girl quest World of Lewdness on Anonkun uses NWOD for its mechanics.

>>47775455
Like who, anon?
>>47779171
Please don't bring this up unless you have the first fucking clue about the WoD, because you obviously don't.
White Wolf is the game company. They used the Storyteller System in their World of Darkness, which includes games like Vampire: the Masquerade, Werewolf: the Apocalypse and Mage: the Ascension (the subtitle is not optional, as it otherwise causes mixups with the New World of Darkness Mage:the Awakening, also known as "Disney's Atlantis with no balance").
Saying that the World of Darkness is a game is about as accurate as saying that Warhammer is a roleplaying game. There are many roleplaying games in the Warhammer universes, but under that there's Fantasy and 40k, and each of those have multiple games (and on top of that there are the non-roleplaying games and other spinoffs). It could be barely correct if you used the New World of Darkness as an example, which has the core setting as its own game line, but you linked an Ascension character sheet.
You're rather new to all this, right? You're far too enthusiastic about something you have next to no idea about, and you're gushing about a completely fucking simple dice pool system like it's revolutionary. It's like you assume that the creator of AMGC didn't know about the Storytelling System/World of Darkness (both are used, because the WoD uses its distinct versions of the rules and composes most of the Storyteller System games - and still you were wrong), or that people here know less about roleplaying games than someone who still posts like they're on Reddit, uses a tripcode when they don't contribute content and knows little enough about the culture which they're basing their games on that they can brag about playing a Korean game in a thread about Japanese-inspired media.
I'm not trying to rub your face in the dirt, but Jesus Christ you need a wake-up call before you become the laughingstock of the thread.
How's your day in magical girl academy been, /tg/?
>>47779171
>>47784914
As a related side note, AMGC was explicitly designed with Exalted mechanics, not WoD or NWoD. This is because the system that AMGC was meant to be an extension to (Jayne's system) was explicitly an adaptation for Exalted mechanics, and the original developers for AMGC weren't game designers, but storytellers looking to run a couple of campaigns in the short term.
>>47784914
This thread isn't the type for eating people alive, by the way. The majority of us are civil and supportive. Those that aren't are either innocuous enough to ignore or already banned from the IRC.

>>47784914
Uh cool coo mate all I said was that I looked at something that seemed to be compatible in terms of rolling, I didn't use the systems in depth, I just said it was an idea.
>I'm not trying to rub your face in the dirt, but Jesus Christ you need a wake-up call before you become the laughingstock of the thread.
You're cute. You should come by the IRC and tell me more of your expertise anon. Truly, you seem to be a true connoisseur of what is an idea for the magical girl system we're trying to improve little by little..
So much for calling me the laughing stock of the thread.
>>47788828
>benevolent tyranny
Be careful your benevolence does not become malevolence, and make sure to give SOME wiggle room IN the rules, not ontop or addition of them. They are Human, but getting more leniency than their flawed existence requires leads to... Unpleasant things.Do you need a council member, do you even have a council?

It's a good thing that the most toxic members decided to leave. They were forcing players to play the game the way they wanted it. As if they ruled the IRC and CYOA which came way before them.

Just so I know: Stats increased by coins apply only to transformed magical girl or to civilian too?
>>47823421
Only the former
>>47823421
>>47823434
Otherwise we'd have little girls fully capable of superhuman feats of strength/endurance/precision, which would probably be more than a little odd.
>>47817003
I think Kajiya's more on the end of dealing that out. And too messed up in the head to consider turning her own arm into a toothed, tumorous lump of mass as horror soooooo...
Chisa did get turned into a pile of bugs once. That wasn't fun for her.
>>47823639
That's a weird reason to give when clearly the entire genre involves things that are more than a little odd. In my mind it serves two purposes: One, to lend importance to transformation, which is a major trope in MG shows. Two, to let players RP a normal life outside of being a MG.
>>47765061
Do allies (from perk of the same name) get coins to do stuff?
>>47827612
There's a little box at the end of the perks list that specifies how many.
Honest question: Is the community in decline? It feels like either less things are going on or people are isolating into smaller sub-groups. This has been compounded by several important people leaving. And a follow up question: How can we reverse said decline if it exists.

Guess we'll do this thing then
>>47830960
Nah, there are hiccups but things are more or less consistent. At worst there's a lull caused by lack of content and some drama, but things aren't declining more than you'd expect.
I mean, yes, it's a pity we lost a bunch of the old guard needlessly, but it's not a deathblow to the community.
I expect things to get better when we have more GMing and updated editions since the current one, as good as it is, has its limits.
Rolled 15, 7, 9, 12, 5, 9, 2, 3, 7, 9, 16 = 94 (11d20)
>>47830960
Perhaps not decline, but it has severely stagnated. New updates are fine for a quick burst, but are just a quick fix to a larger problem. We need more people, more GM's. The thread is fine for getting lurkers, but we should spread the word to friends and bring in people ourselves.
Has your mahou ever felt absolutely unstoppable?
I'm GMing my first game of this with a couple of friends in a few weeks, have you guys got any tips or ideas for story or plot hooks?

That being said, I can't really help you.
>>47837197

I don't really know about much else to possibly use as a reference point, and I was going to get around to watching it anyway, so I decided to watch it earlier rather than later.
>>47837023
Why do the PCs contract? Who were they before?
What sort of tone- optimistic or depressing?
What evil do they fight?
Social stuff. NPC friends and enemies. A rival or bbeg.
>>47835191
>>47830960
Largely the problem is drama, It effects more than just 1-2 people who hate eachother and end up leaving, it makes other people feel awkward and not want to be there.
We have had a very large amount of drama that often could have been solved by simply ignoring eachother ooc or just sucking it up and playing nice.
I think our community is a lot healthier now that we know who our admin is and can trust him to actually take care of stuff.
>>47838006
I agree, now that the majority of the problem people are gone and we have mods that aren't just circlejerking each other and trying to control what people can contribute, we can do better than ever.
It's unfortunate that some genuinely good people like Molniya and Lynnia got caught up in it.
It's like burning a forest. We have the trash cleared now, we just need to let the fresh seeds grow up.
>>47839481

A few rules questions:
Does the emergency background mean you get to pick the two combat perks or that you get two extra ones?
Also a perk dual fist/mystic weapon gives you +2 str +1 mag but a mystic/fist weapon gives you +1 mag +1 str, even though both have similar functionality, is that right?
Finally does the soul twin penalty reduce your stats out of uniform as well? 2 across the board seems pretty crippling for day to day time.
>>47842519
Consider a 4 is average human strength.
2 would just be typical child strength, so it's not actually crippling.
>>47842670
Since 4 is adult, 5 is athlete, and 6 is Olympian, wouldn't it make sense to scale downward by the same degree?
Does this thread know about Sword Girls? Because I remember seeing it around YEARS ago and it's apparently still got a following.
>>47842519
I think that QB'll be overhauling things but I think you just pick the two, not two extra.
Pretty much.
Don't think so, that'd be silly.
>>47842995
No, but I like the name. Tell us more.
>>47843983
It's a free-to-play PvP and PvE card game that released in 2011 with a magical girl aesthetic. It's English version's already been officially closed and is being kept alive by the community. I don't remember if there was a cash shop then, but now, the only way to get cards is by grindan and craftan in Pv
There were four (now 5 apparently) factions to choose from, each with their own strengths and a theme for the girls that were in them: Academy (Maids), Vita (Schoolgirls), Darklore (Vampires), Crux (Knights) and Empire (Soldiers). I'd tell you what each's strategies were, but I've honestly only just started looking into it myself after seeing it in 2011.
There's no real storyline to follow other than through flavor-text, but it's got tons of interesting characters and designs.
>>47844718

I meant to say PvE. It's not that demanding of a game though, but if you really hate grinding I'd suggest passing this game.

>>47839481
No, instead we have a head mod that postulates, ignores their own logic, arbitrarily punishes people for things they know nothing about, and supports his subordinates banning others literally because they felt like it.
Then he refuses to overturn these punishments when people call him out over this because he's afraid of community backlash instead of punishing the true sour elements that would "backlash" over trivial things.
>>47854872
Necro, shut up.
First of all, you weren't supplying the mids with evidence if your innocence. Secondly, the thing that exonerated you was delivered by the same person you believe to have been pushing for your ban. Lastly starting stuff in the thread is still a strikable offense.

How does picking weapons/costume/power for twinned souls work? If you spent coins to modify your rolls does the twin get those modification options for free too or do you have to spend bronze and silver individually for either of you?
Also isn't it the fact that your soul twin comes with its own additional power while you don't kind of weird? Seems like a holdover from when it used to be a perk.

Question do i get both the Monstergirl perks and the regular perks?
>>47835191
The reason people become lurkers in the long-term is because there's nothing for them to do.
>>47863469
Yes, Monstergirls are stronger than Magical Girls because they are antagonists.
>>47860259
Unless they're a STR/AGI melee.
>>47864467
Right, but Ranged and Mystic get a lot more out of an AGI investment than Melee does.
>>47864844
Cry more melee fag. Mag users get shat on by melee constantly.
>>47864887
MAG is supposed to be countered by STR. It's like this:
STR>=MAG
AGI>>>STR
MAG=AGI
>>47864887
Melee needs to shit on someone, and not like Mag has no ways to counter.
The real issue with Mag is how it can't lolnope Agi- the rock paper scissors is broken.
Str > Mag
Agi > Str
Mag SHOULD be > Agi but is only = and between that and Agi's other advantages, Agi is a bit better than it should be right now.

>>47865534
You sure do love to switch topics when you're losing the logic battle.
>>47864844
You what?
AGI does 4 things for Melee.
1. It makes dash attacks not to piddly shit.
2. It prevents people from running away from you.
3. It gives you defense from every attack type.
4. Better Initiative rolls
That's 1 more than what Mystic gets. Mystic gets to run away and defense from every attack type. AGI doesn't give them anything for attacking people.
>>47865779
BUT ANON MELEE DOESN'T AUTOMATICALLY WIN AGAINST AGILITY!
IT'S BROKEN!WE NEED STRENGTH-BASED DASH!
>>47865779
MAG gets two defense types from AGI.
The dash/disengage/flee situation is the original topic.
Let me put it like this: If Disengage and Flee didn't exist, MAG would still want AGI over LCK. On the other hand, STR would prefer LCK
>>47866058
You're a faggot and you argue like one. That aside...
Agility would still win against Melee if disengage didn't exist and dash were always strength-based. So you're arguing bullshit.
>>47866152
What would you suggest then?
Give mag defense against agi?
Make flee a vit roll?
Remove disengage?
Remove dash?
>>47866152
How would MAG want AGI if they couldn't disengage? LCK is omnidefence, remember, and you get to FP the shit out of everything. Plus it still helps Initiative rolls.
>>47866221
Ah, that's true. MAG can use either Agility or LCK to cover both defenses.
>>47866243
Right. And if Disengage and Flee didn't exist, you still have Hide, with is LCK based. It gets you out of every grapple too.
>>47866177
All of those are decent changes, but I'd settle for being able to use STR to pursue. Muscle strength is a large factor of speed anyways.
>>47867348
Let me amend this. I meant strength to pursue anything AGI-based. A VIT contest would be better for long-term chases.
>>47865082
You...do realize that...isn't a balance related argument, right?
>>47866177
Mag desperately needs an agi defense for the rock/paper/scissors mechanic. Flee being vit seems a bit weird- you don't think of tanks being fast and dodgy glass cannons exist.
Dash being reworked is happening but agi and strength's interactions for melee being reworked wouldn't hurt either.
I actually am of the opinion STR/AGI Melee is secretly really strong as it is right now, but that might just be because I play a STR/AGI Melee so whatever.
>>47867899
Yeah, but it's basically the default and best way to Str which ehhhhhhhhhh.
I mean, that's fine but variety is good.
>>47867833
VIT is endurance, which has much more to do with stamina than agility does. I also like that this method separates sprinters from distance runners.
>>47868152
Ehhh. Vit shouldn't really be a mobility stat- if anything I'd be for it being even more defense focused, but as long as both sprinters and distance runners are accounted for...
Wan wan! Weeb dogs say to keep the thread alive for the morning.

What is your character's greatest fear?
>>47881095
Being a useless failure that doesn't matter to anyone.
>>47881095
Her most persistent fear is that she could lose control of her powers and kill someone in accident or anger.
Whether the victim would be familiar or a stranger doesn't factor in. It would crush her with guilt either way.
Is it worth it to pick this up? I've only ever played some 3.5 and 5e DnD. I recently played a rpg maker game about magical girls that got me into the genre, and this looks like the game I've wanted.
Is the community active? Are there plenty of games? Are they accepting of someone pretty new to games like this?
>>47883939
>Is it worth it to pick this up?
IMO, yes, but I'm probably a little biased because I like this stuff.
>Is the community active
Its pretty active, yeah. There was a bit of a slump activity recently after some drama, but its picking back up again.
>Are there plenty of games?
Some kind of freeform chat RP is usually going on at any given time. More discrete sessions/campaigns with combat and encounters happen regularly, and its pretty easy to get in on those if you just ask.
>Are they accepting of someone pretty new to games like this?
Yeah, the community is great at welcoming new people. You won't get any animosity or hate for being new, if that's what you're asking. Just hop on #MGCYOA on rizon and chat a bit.
>>47883939

HI LYN
Alchemical Water, ya gotta bring the band back together!
>>47765061
I have a question about physical stats. It's written :
4 is your average human adult.
● 5 is a trained athlete or above average
● 6 is Olympian athlete or top tier human
● 7 is peak human. You’re on par with world record holders.
● 8+ is supernatural and effects are described in their individual sections.
but right after the benchmark are written for scores of 4, 6, 8, ..., 18+
Is this a mistake?
>>47891770
The listings for 5-8 are meant to serve as a general baseline in case you want to have non-Magical girl NPCs or random people, as well as having a point of comparison. The benchmarks listed afterward are more definite ones related to magical girling.
>>47891932
thank you! .3
>>47891770
>>47891932
It's also true that the stat scales are a bit inconsistent, and AGI gets described as hand-eye coordination instead of actual agility.
>>47881095
Fear itself.

>>47858582
>How does picking weapons/costume/power for twinned souls work? If you spent coins to modify your rolls does the twin get those modification options for free too or do you have to spend bronze and silver individually for either of you?
Any Gold spent allows you to duplicate it's results on your Twin, whether that is a bonus Power, Extra Perks, a roll mod, or stats. Silvers spent for Stats give +1 to each of you. Bronze coins do not dupe effects.
>Also isn't it the fact that your soul twin comes with its own additional power while you don't kind of weird? Seems like a holdover from when it used to be a perk.
Indeed it is! Planning to rectify that with an edit in 1.51. No Power for your Twin. Your shared Power is having a Twin, though if you buy a bonus Power via Gold Coin you both get it.
>>47891770
As per >>47891932, the human level stats are there to give you an idea of what NPC stats will look like, and let you gauge your own stats, since as a magical girl getting a stat of 15+ is quite possible.
In other news, I got a BUNCH of little edit changes and language cleanups from a friendly grammar guru, so I have plenty of small edits to worth though for 1.51 in addition to the balance and rule edits I need to make. Would have liked to have most of it done Monday, but a friend had a small emergency and I spent the day entertaining her kid instead.
Also, blame Agatha for introducing me to TERA, since I've been playing a ton of that recently. In other news, I have a rough draft of for an IRC specific setting doc I'll throw up in a Titanpad for people to hammer on later this week.

The Meat Card
Why is there no equivalent of charisma in this game?
>>47928139
Because magical girls are very attractive, charming and persuasive, each in her own way.
>>47918764
I'd say that which Major Arcana matches to each of my characters is something that changes over time. Right now, though?
Belinda: The Star. Hope, faith, and healing which follow after the calamity of thein hindsight, rather literalTower. In addition to the Star, Strength and The Hanged Man would also both fit her character as a whole, whether upright or reversed.
Aysu: Wheel of Fortune reversed. Misfortune and a sudden, life-altering change dictated by forces beyond her control. Overall, the Moon is the obvious card to pick as representative of he for a number of reasons.
Seona: The Hierophant, both positions. Obedience and a desire for knowledge, but also a growing conscience and the realization that authority figures (Read: Puchuu) cannot all be trusted. As a whole, both Justice and Judgement would likely be good fits.
>>47928139
In DnD attribute terms, Wisdom and Intelligence are arguably not represented either.
>>47928139
Mental/social stats are not a thing in this because they were surprisingly unimportant in certain particularly famous examples of the mahous genre. Also, having to have those kinds of things in your statline means your characterization rests on the rolls of the dice.
Instead, you get physical and supernatural stats, because nobody wants to pay their minmaxing points towards characterization when they can avoid it.
>>47928335
I thought that those two were just rolled into one as MAG
>>47929154
Eh, In terms of just being the casting stat, MAG serves as potentially all three of the mental attributes. It simply doesn't translate into anything beyond that like the DnD attributes would.
>>47929154
The system is nothing like D&D, forget everything you've learned and start from scratch.
I'm working on some soul selling mechanics, so you can look at and provide feedback if you want.
https://titanpad.com/c66eszY3M7
>>47928139
>>47928335
Because the game stems from the CYOA, and the CYOA assume that you are well, YOU. You're no smarter or dumber than you normally are when you become a magical girl.
Plus, wisdom or intelligence rarely facotr into mahou stories. Contrast ditzface 'I can't pass a test to save my life' Usagi, with hyperbrain 'I am tied for the national record on standardized tests' Ami. And yet, Ami's book knowledge is never used in a significant way in Sailor Moon. And even supposedly priestess in training cynic Rei falls for that stupid Moon Princess contest bullshit.

The character Kaylee is edited from is a mascot for a species of shrimp. It's nothing to do with her in the RP, I just haven't bothered editing out the scary monster friend.
