Good logs!

New thread! Time for a roll.
>>44151939
Couple people were asking how things were progressing on the update front - here's the skinny.
Holidays have kept me very busy, plus I've been sick a couple times, and not the fun 'stay home and pop some aspirin, still do work' sick, and some non-holiday things that I didn;t relish doing but had to attend like funerals. I've been rather busy and haven't got a lot done.
That said, 1.4 of the Core MGCYOA IS done. I haven't put it out yet because I'm still working on the Patron Module, previously called the corruption module. Patron as a perk, and all references to monster girls have been excised from the core .pdf, and are being put into the Patron Module, which allows you to determine who your mystical backer is. Currently I have the Puchuu, Spirit, Old God, Forgotten, The Light, and the Ebon Mint as options.
Since Patrons and Monster Girls have always been part of the core CYOA, I'm unwilling to release 1.4 until this module is also done.
>>44156020
As for ETA on the Patron Module. I could have it done by the end of next week if nothing goes wrong. Worst case scenario, I will post up 1.4 and whatever is complete from the Patron Module on Christmas.
>>44156020
Hope everything goes okay, QB and get well soon.
Any chance of points buy making it in some form? Do we get some nice options for Angels?
>>44156020
Looking forward to it.
If you don't mind a quick question, what has the Patron perk been replaced with?
Additionally there has been some community discussion about adding more rollable Powers. It may not be added to your CYOA but perhaps you'll be interested in seeing them regardless.
https://titanpad.com/gzq9FmkUTM
>>44158422
Current replacement is Overcity Shift. You can shift to or out of the Overcity at any time - something that was mentioned in Overcity background info, but no ability was associated with it.

Which is the best combination of point-buy and rolling for this CYOA?
Please put CYOA in the thread subject so my filter picks up the thread in the future, thanks.
>>44160927
What do you mean? Points buy and rolling are separate things.
>>44161512
The Gold, Silver, and Bronze coins are already a point-buy aspect to the regular CYOA.
further bumping!
Puchuu are jerks and should be punched in the face when you see one.
Also, I know this isn't the update everyone's been waiting for, but Sentinel Green and I slowly managed to edit the next chapter's worth of content for each other's stories, so the Master List has been updated
Sentinel Green now stands at 9 parts: Table of contents here: http://pastebin.com/wbW1m5Cc

Whoa. Some of thse are really cool. Having a mount especially seems rad.
>>44167618
I'm confused. In Sahara's system, do Big Friends still get the normal 3 combat perks and 2 silvers to spend, or are they just stuck to the MG perks?
... if they are, how will I be able to get a big friend with wings?
>>44169979
Meant MonG, not MG, sorry.
>>44156020
Thank you for the update. Looking forward to it! Hope everything goes well for you and your loved ones.
>>44169979
Big Friends in Sahara's system are based off the 1.2 Release of Quasar Black's CYOA which did not designate Perks to Allies/Big Friends, so it was 'normal' when that is taken into consideration. The 1.3 Release of the CYOA has added coins and perks to them and at the time there is no plans to alter AMGCore in that regard.
Wings were originally in the MonG perks but due to popular demand were removed (overlap from vanilla perks).
You could fluff Levitation + Bestial perks to have wings, more or less/
>>44158422
I'll consider it. Current 1.4 file is 6.95megs, so I have a little wiggle room with things I could add.
Mount is partially covered by one of the new Familiar options in 1.4
Overclock feels more Dragonball/Naruto than magical girl.
Prime of Your Life is interesting. That could be used, though I'd probably tweak the combat bonus, and give it an hour, maybe two, of use per day out of combat. Enough to get into 'I can date, but I can't ever stay over or spend an entire day without being found out.' shenanigans.
Teleportation as a short range thing, maybe needs some kind of limiter, I think.
Avatar is... poorly named, but I get the gist. I'd probably limit this to two other elements at increasingly less effective MAG, and base if off of core MAG. Like you can wield one other element at half your effective MAG, and another at 1/4.
Anything that is 'You functionally have extra Stats' is a bit boring as a Power. i.e. Sturdiness is basically a bunch of extra VIT.
I'm hesitant on Nullification, it is unique, but it feels a bit like allowing you to no-sell others mechanics, which is a bit out of theme.
I don't want to have any powers that lean on the optional Fusion mechanic.
I have a few ideas of my own. I'll consider adding to the core pdf, but I need 10 more, and to keep it under 8 megs, so we'll see. Powers are already 2 pages in 1.4, this would take Powers to 5 pages, similar to Specializations.
RP session: Alexa and Amelia go looking for trouble. They find it.

>>44172005
Interesting read, the action sequence flowed very well.
>>44171751
Ah that explains it, it makes sense if we consider the 1.2 version. I only saw Sahara's after 1.3 was out so I thought they were meant to overlap and such. Thanks.

Then, here it is:
11 years old
Underdeveloped +1 MAG
Darkness +2 MAG +1 VIT/LCK
Melee +1 STR/VIT (Duelist)
Cosplay +1 LCK (Magical Guard)
Focused Assault +1 STR
Perks: Flexibility +1 AGI, Purification Artifact +1 MAG, Money +1 LCK, Gifted (bronze) +1 MAG, Big Friend
STR 10 (silver, 2 bronze), AGI 5, VIT 6, MAG 16 (gold, 2 silver, bronze), LCK 7
Name: Maya Dusk
Weapon: Sonano Kai(two-handed sword)
Outfit: an imitation of Rory Mercury's clothes http://i.imgur.com/Nssj9bX.png
Blessed with power over the shadows, Maya enjoys her new darkvision and uses her mystery money as excuse to sleep all day and stay awake all night. She doesn't care much for the whole monster deal but she is kind and likes to help people. When the puchuu tried to get her to slay her first monster - a tall zombie girl who looked about to cry - she just gave him an angry stare, and instead took the zombie under her wing, and lives with her ever since. She's quite a good girl, despite wanting to eat people and stuff.
Big friend:
14 years old
Overdeveloped +1 STR
Stone
Fists +2 STR (Bullet Punch)
Flowing +1 STR (Flowing)
Killing Blow +1 STR
Perks: Cursed, Automaton, Invisibility, Intuition, Parasite
STR 9, AGI 4, VIT 4, MAG 4, LCK 4
Name: Selene Havel
Race: Zombie
Motivation: Devourer
Food: Meat!
Poor Havel-chan, despite being so-so in strength (by dumb luck), is lacking in every other aspect. She's just a shy and unlucky zombie girl who eats a lot and is always hungry since can't hold food in her stomach (Literally. She lacks one). She's so shy that when she's embarrassed enough she actually goes invisible somehow.
>>44173156
No problem, feel free to ask in thread or hop in the IRC for such questions!
Nice Rumia pic too.
The characters seem fun! This pic reminded me of Havel.
>>44151939
Hey /tg/ l'm making a CYOA,next page will have a few more enemies, items and conpanions, any ideas for the last 2?

Shit sorry senpai tought it was CYOA general.
>>44175466

Thanks! Glad you liked it.
>>44173293
Will do, I've been meaning to join the IRC for a while and now that my vacations are here, I feel like I'll be able to pass by there.
Thanks! Darkness girls immediately make me think of her.
Also I'm really happy to know you've liked them! I've had fun thinking and playing around with the concepts. But oh heavens, that picture is perfectly fitting for Havel indeed
>>44176660
Great, hope to see you there Anon. Even better if you'll bring those girls in to rp with.
How do you guys feel about Magical burst?
Also had a random question. In magical burst you're supposed to combine magical attributes (magic,heart,fury) to combat stats (attack, defense, support). Any ideas on how to put fury and support together?
>>44178750
Worse than Puuchus
It's not a very good system, and barely functional. Fury can be put on attack, defense, or support so just declare you want to use fury for support that turn and roll.
>>44181730
Wrong copy pasta. How did this picture come to be associated with bait anyway?

Name: Lena
Weapon: Fadenkreuz - G22 (AWM .300) with gemstone in its grip
Outfit: Military inspired uniform complete with combatboots, hotpants and stockings.
Lena is a stoic and often quiet person by nature, but this changes the moment she absorbs large quantities of a certain emotion. While she has learned to hold these foreign emotions more or less under control, they do tend to shape her beavior quite a bit. She usually engages in long-range engagements and is able to transfer her power through her sniper-rifle into friend and foe alike.
Shortly after her becoming a magical girl, she was approached by a strange, bland man with an absolute expressionless face. He offered her a deal, he would teach her how to condense and store her magical power into mundane objects, if she would deliver a certain amount of emotionally laden objects per month to him. She accepted the deal and is now proficient with creating bullets and other trinkets infused with ceratin emotional energies and their respective magical effects. Using her own powers is, however, still the more powerful option, but it allows Lena to switch relatively easy between different emotional powers, albeit at a weaker level. Still better than trying to keep both positive and negative emotions in great quantities stored in her own body.

Rolling monster ideas
>>44185437
Currently there are several categories of Patron, which should encapsulate the majority of them.
Puchuu are the main one.
Spirits covers a large variety of things with limited purviews.
Deities covers all your various old named gods.
Horrors covers your various malevolent patrons, wanting to destroy earth, conquer it, steall all the energy or what have you.
Then I have The Light as the white coin/Spark patrons and the Ebon Mint as the Black Coin patrons. I'm up for better name suggestions if you have them.
>>44187195
Are you still able to be a DMG or MG without having to have a patron? Or is that the default ebil puuchu?

>>44151939
So, if I wanted to join the IRC Chat and try it out, what additional rules/variants would I have to use? Up until now, I usually have build my Girls using only the original CYOA.
Would I base it in the RPNP Stuff?
>>44152059
Used the point-buy method, two silver coins in agility (+4), one silver coin spread across strength and magic (+1, +1). Gold was used to buy additional perks - couldn't resist the pokemon reference considering the build is based on a riolu. Wasn't sure what to do with the spell space.
>>44190397
Jacqueline, often abbreviated to Jack or Jackie, is a new addition to the ranks of magical girls. They're inexperienced but drawn by their new powers to those in need of a helping hand. Aided by their apparent knack for getting around the Overcity they can be found racing to and fro - often with whoever they can wrangle into coming with them as they don't trust their combat inexperience. Other times they act as something of a tracking hound to parties of magical girls on a hunt.
In all cases, Jacqueline prefers to be in the company of others. The empathic links help her abilities and help regulate their own emotions. It can be potentially dangerous however. If a strong prevailing emotion runs through the group it could have disastrous consequences for her. Terror and anger are especially conducive to triggering another transformation where they end up taking on an even greater resemblance to the pokemon they share many similarities with. Depending on the situation that could lead to them bolting away from the situation until they can calm down, potentially stranding a group of magical girls without their navigator, or them lashing out at those around them.
>>44187298
That's just be the default Puchuu. Basically, you can end up being a DMG/monster girl from any of them, but the Patron module is non-random, so you'd choose for theme. Each has a couple unique boons and banes/geasa you can take. Default is to gain one static boon and one drawback. You can take one additional boon by taking on an additional drawback. Drawbacks are mostly things you've seen before - mental editing, monstrous body, monstrous motivations, etc.
>>44191073
So this is a bonus for everyone?
>>44189765
Original's fine for RP, but the campaign's tend to use Sahara's which is mostly just a more fleshed out version with a system for rolls anyway.
>>44193422
Sort of, yes. The Puchuu Boons and Drawbacks are relatively minor. Some of the other Patrons offer greater potency, but also twist or hurt you more.
It's kind of a sliding scale of humanity you end up with. Sticking with the Puchuu keeps you closer to being just a human with special powers, taking one of the others may give you more power, but will make you stranger and more alien, even out of costume.
>>44187195
Would it be possible to have human 'patrons', or would that not count?
>>44194871
Wouldn't count. You could work for the MIB's or some magi group or something, but they're not hooked into your powers. They're just people you're working with.
>>44195006
Ah, I see. Would they use the Puchuu Patron rules then?
>>44195791
Everyone uses the Puchuu rules by default. They're written into the fluff of magical girls in the base pdf, this just codifies them and gives you explicit options other than the Puchuu.
>>44196189
>>44196212
