Advent of the God-Harem King [Highschool DxD/Exalted] (CLOSED)

Hmm, we'd have near infinite expansion possibilities if we don't limit ourselves to just one set of constellations.

How about naming them after the constellations?

The ones from Exalted? Interesting I'll help. Those are Creation's Constellations, also know as "Colleges", each corresponding to an Ability:

Endurance - The Mast
Ride - The Messenger
Sail - The Ship's Wheel
Survival - The Captain
Thrown - The Gull
Craft - The Pillar
Dodge - The Ewer
Linguistics - The Musician
Performance - The Peacock
Socialise - The Lovers
Archery - The Quiver
Brawl - The Gauntlet
Melee - The Spear
Presence - The Banner
Resistance - The Shield
Investigation - The Key
Larceny - The Guardians
Lore - The Treasure-Trove
Occult - The Sorceror
Stealth - The Mask
Athletics - The Rising Smoke
Awareness - The Crow
Bureaucracy - The Haywain
Martial Arts - The Sword
Medicine - The Corpse
 
That might work, we'd have to decide if we want individual names for each of the Original ones or flat out make it one name fits the entire line.
 
I love this update, Issei being as dense as ever (hahaha!).

I wonder what gave pause to Eiko in the update, before asking to go to the capital with Issei?

Since Irina, and Xenovia are here things are going to get harder, Issei is going to fight a very pissed off Fred.

The Mask wich is the constalation that the Siderals destroyed accidentaly.

Since Issei can now teach Celestial Martial arts, I wonder how those Siderals that were trying to teach to that Dragonbloded Exalt, are going to react.

If you want to make things darker, I don't mind, I could recomend puting Zombies, but there is already a bad manga of Highscool and Zombies.

I'm also loving Green Sun, and Black Shadows quest.

I've got an idea, i'm going to post it here for approval. I took the zodiac signs and divided them based on descriptions of common traits found here (scroll down a bit, there's a table.)

The master piece would be called the Zodiac piece (Equivalent of king)

Taurus, Capricorn, Scorpio, for enhanced strength and durability (equivalent of rooks)

Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, for magic (equivalent of bishops)

Pisces, Aries, Leo, for speed (equivalent of knights)

Aquarius, Sagittarius, Libra, for adaptability (equivalent of pawns

How's that? And there's no queen piece so we don't have to feel guilty as players for "favoring" one character, (also because i couldn't think of a zodiac symbol fitting to be a queen piece) the pieces would be like small golden crystals with the symbols floating in the middle made of silver, kind of like a bug trapped in amber.

might be better to leave out the master piece and refer to the groups as Zodiacs so that we can empower people without forcing a peerage like dynamic. As for how to bind Zodiacs together include communication and tracking features so members of the same Zodiac can always find one another and communicate telepathically.

While I do think the name could be changed, i feel there should be a fairly clear leader. The peerage system didn't have that much wrong with it other then individuals own accomplishments not being recognized/always being inferior to the king. Maybe call the master piece the "Galaxy", groups a "zodiac" and include a system that allows members of a zodiac to break themselves out of it at any point? Though I'm fairly sure we'll probably be the only ones using these.
 
Honestly I'd prefer a Blank card that shifted to a Tarot based on what fit the girl *or guy I guess* best, with Issei having The World rather then something pulled from Fate or Saint Seiya*sp* or whatever

Besides above. We know that Issei will be the Leader, the Master piece will give us a measure of status at least when facing other Groups. Also installing failsafes into it in case someone -Azazel- decides to do,something dumb we can reset it.

make the galaxy peice attach to one of the Zodiac pieces to act as the communications hub and give the Zodiac a leader who's one of them.

Yeah I might not REALLY like it, but we're the leader. We need an equivalent of a king piece.
 
I think there was talk about adopting the Pactio system from negima once.
 
that would give us a great deal of leeway for how many girls and replacing the stat boost with an automatically generated artifact would make it so we don't have to put any thought into which stat boost fits them most.

bonus points if do it with Rias and have this play:

Pactio is the single most wasteful micromangement fueled retarded piece of BS I have ever seen, twice so as we are able to create our own artefacts without using a half ass plot powered ritual

better to have always on buffs and give the girls the ability to train themselves rather then needing to turn there freaking power on like some stupid ass magical girl

but whatever, can we please drop this waste of time argument, we are still 25% away from completing this project and nothing we do now is going to result in more then anger and shouting
 
......How about Go?

We can expand as much as we want then.

We can but, making a Artifact that does it will simplify the process and automate certain steps meaning less things we have to actively deal with when handling corrupted or rogue pieces.

There is also no way Bright would let us Empower people on that level without having ROOT access to said Power, not after getting Ganked by the Dragon Blooded like she did >.>

Doesn't mean that having a Tool that eases the Implantation process and can automate the removal and repair isn't needed.
 
So will Issei's peerage/zodiacs/thing(?) have any other features? Cause I vote for Transformable outfits when they invoke their powers. Makes it much cooler than those chess pieces and those cards the devils and angels use. Plus Issei and/or his battle harem customizing their outfits could be a thing.

Also, I haven't really caught up much with dxd canon, but are the fallen developing a similar empowerment system?
