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.
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...

Celebrating 50 years of magical girling, I give you this guide to the magical girl genre!
Boys are just as cute as girlsIf not cuter
I recently did a magical girl RP with some buddies using the Magical Burst system.
https://yarukizerogames.com/tag/magical-burst/
It was our first time attempting any kind of roleplay games, but it went pretty well as we all have a decent sense of imagination and sportsmanship to keep it not too ridiculous.
I randomly selected pixiv fantasia photos and used the ones that looked like background porn most to base the nightmare realms we entered off of.
One of the ones we chose was a huge mess of spires, so I designated the tallest spire as the location of the head Youma. Just getting there nearly killed us as we had just become magical girls, so I as GM set the difficulty on teleporting and flying successfully from spire to spire as pretty high.
Quite a lot of fun.
Anyone got any system recommendations that focus on a light combat system?

The hands of a king are the hands of a healer
Anyone have some show recommendations? Anything on the quality level of Madoka? I'm not really familiar with anything but that one since a friend talked me into trying it.
>>46610877
The blue pdf in the thread is a combat system.
Only thing it doesn't cover are dice successes. 7-9 is one success, 10 is two successes, 1-6 are failures like in Exalted
>>46612477
UtaKata pretty much directly inspired Madoka though it has that early 2000s anime look
In my experience people who like Madoka only like Madoka clones so try Symphogear, Day Break Illusion, Black Rock Shooter, and Yuuki Yuuna. Possibly also Nanoha
If you have taste try Princess Tutu, Heartcatch Precure, and Cardcaptor Sakura
>>46612477
There's probably no other show that you'll like as much as Madoka Magica unless you're really a fan of the magical girl genre. That goes double if you mainly liked the show because of how dark and heavy it was; the genre as a whole tends to be lighthearted and cheerful, Madoka Magica is kind of the exception there. With that being said, it's not my personal favorite, and you can probably at least find other shows that you enjoy in the genre.
Lyrical Nanoha is probably my first recommendation for you, it's only 12 episodes long and it's a solid show. If you enjoy that, you'll probably enjoy a lot of other shows in the genre. Plus, if you do enjoy it, the first sequel is also very good, so that's at least another 12 episodes for you to watch.
Cardcaptor Sakura is probably my all time favorite magic girl anime, if you don't mind watching something a bit longer and if you don't mind the slightly dated art style I'd highly recommend it.
You could also try the Precure series. I found that the series as a whole got repetitive very fast because they recycle like 90% of the same material each season. In other words you'll probably only want to watch one or maybe two seasons of it. With that in mind I'd recommend starting with the best season, which is probably Heartcatch Precure.

>>46613893
Heartcatch isn't bad. A little loud and repetitive but I can probably finish it. I think I remember my sister watching Cardcaptor on saturday mornings.
>>46612477
Try Yuuki Yuuna wa Yuusha de Aru
>>46612477
Rolled 7, 11, 15, 10, 18, 4, 16, 8, 11, 16, 16 = 132 (11d20)
Okay, first things first, gonna roll a character and see if I like it.
Second, I rolled a character before because I was bored and wanted to see what this was like, but I didn't wanna use up a post in the thread to do it, so I used a different dice roller. The one from the Wizards website. Kind of regretting that decision now. Anyway, here's what I rolled:
Roll(11d20)+0:
17,4,6,14,13,6,20,19,20,8,20,+0
Total:147
So far she seems to be specced in Magic and Luck, which is nice. She's a psychic type with a familiar and a big friend, and that third 20 gives her a free pick I haven't assigned yet. I also haven't spent any coins yet. Seems like a pretty solid roll, though I'm not sure I'm in love with the psychic type, but I definitely don't hate it.
Anyway, I'm looking for build suggestions, and I won't say no to suggestions for the character I roll in this post either. Yeah, I know it's personal preference, and I'm not looking to powergame, but you guys with experience may see something cool I don't. (Plus it'll give you something to do if you're bored.)
Thought just occured to me: If you save the stats you roll, you could make a bizarro version of your character just by spending coins differently or something. Obvious, but yeah.

>fluffy is still fluffy
Rolled 7, 19, 19, 3, 17, 14, 15, 9, 11, 12, 11 = 137 (11d20)
I want create a Sailor Cthulhu and try to fill out her fluff out after iv stated her. the only thing iv got for her so far is that she's eerily up beat and optimistic despite being an agent of a dark elder god. any ideas would be great.
Rolled 3, 11, 8, 19, 9, 16, 3, 8, 11, 10, 14, 12 = 124 (12d20)

Rolling for Twin Soul
>>46604699 Alright! So I rolled up my girl, and she definitely seems to be an odd one. Balanced when it comes to all of her stats except luck, she seems to be an up close water mage who tries to disarm people of their weapons before doing any actual fighting. Though She did get a killing blow, which I am going to name "Final Penance."
The only real issue is that she has an 8 year old Dark Empath who is trying to corrupt her. Oh Jeez. I also couldn't find a good pic for her age, so I switched her to being 17 and used this.
>>46612769
>Black Rock Shooter
That predates Madoka.
Or the OVA does anyway.
>>46623470
The OVA was separate, but watch the tv series and try to tell me with a straight face it wasn't trying to ride the Madoka cashcow wave.
>>46622981
She sounds fun and would likely get along with my gravity luchadora who calls her killing blow "Megaton Lariat" after she suspends people in the air and drops a flying lariat on them at terminal velocity.
>>46625472
That's pretty awesome! Working on some backstory stuff currently. It's gonna be great!
Are there any set rules for using coins after character generation?
>>46625649
You lose them if not used.
Does this count as a familiar?
>>46625910
What does your heart tell you anon? That is the answer
>>46625780
You can spend them for things in the overcity.
>>46625649
Yes there's a rule page about that here.It says you're stupid.
