Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

Eh. I thought since it say 1 or 2 I could use "of" as a non word.

Hmm. Is a spell that reverses success and failure in an area for rolls Ok for a spell instead?

Click to shrink...

It'd be pretty point less... you'd be better off with Area of Failure as a spell and Growth though failure as an ability modifier. Since reversing success and failure basically gives exactly the same success and failure chances as a regular roll.

Where as you could do something like designate home base as your area of failure sink... and use your team mates who make rolls at home as a source of potential failures.

Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

Actually, the rolls favor successes because of doubles and the 100+. A reverse of that makes it 60%+ of all rolls becomes failures.

 

[Xicree]

Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

Ah, you could have one that reverses for a target, but not an area.

 

[Adyen]

Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

If it's for single target, can I make the neutrals (40-60) minor failures (those rolls don't help, but has minor failures where it's really minor and easily fixed but still failures)?

 

[Xicree]

Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

Yes.

Operational Philosophy: The only victory lies in defeat - and defeat is only a learning experience.

Efficiency Ratings:

Ability Modifiers:
Growth though Failure - Technical - Every failure brings a chance to accumulate Advancement Points. (roll 1d2 on Failures 1: gains 1 advancement point 2: gives none)

CHARACTER SHEET

Name: Sov Rein

Initial Path: Overwhelm

Ideal: Dominion

Body Type: Arachnid

Operational Philosophy: Sov Rein isn't shy of charging into battle against overwhelming numbers. Sov prefers to find and fight other strong Vorids in personal combat to pit is Ideal against their own. Sov's style is to overwhelm his opponents as soon as possible in straight combat.

Efficiency Ratings:
Technical Proficiency – 3
Combat Proficiency – 5
Ideal Proficiency – 7

Ability Modifiers:
Air Sense-Technical Proficiency- Sov has linked his own senses with that of the surrounding air and can detect to an lesser degree things in his blind spots as well as invisible foes within an small area.

Just saw this. Also, on mobile atm. Xicree, mind if I reuse my char from the previous iteration/run? (I'll put it up on here later once I'm on a comp.) Mod magic.

Name: Ephemeral of Existence

Character Description: Resembling a proper 'humanoid' in appearance, Ephemeral is not quite so much properly that. The eyes are but silvery and a long flowing strands of 'hair'... belaying its 'gender' (male). Its general appearance seems androgynous and generally styled along a smooth 'suit-like' appearance that is a matching silver and black with a gray tinge. Depending on role and task, its appearance shifts but retains its humanoid body. Generally though, its more oft used alternative style is slightly fox themed, though mainly pertaining its ears and a faux tail that is technically weaponized while sacrificing defense for mobility and agility. Another alternative variant employed at times takes after a 'wolf' theme, though omitting the tail in favor of significantly denser 'hair' that acts as a light but effective defense that can double as an offensive weapon.

Initial Path: Existence

Ideal: Actualization - The ideas and thoughts that are... but comes to be. Ever changing, ever shifting, here and not. However, without coming to be, they are nothing. I am but one that brings such things to come. As long as it is, it may come into being.

Body Type: Humanoid

Operational Philosophy: Nothing is impossible. Every 'thing' can be existent. Failure is nonexistent, there is only setbacks. Success is the only final possibility. What one cannot do alone, one shall call upon the might of others, under one common or overlapping cause.

Efficiency Ratings:
- Technical Proficiency: 4
- Combat Proficiency: 4
- Ideal Proficiency: 7

Ability Modifiers:
Conceptual Strike – Combat – Everything Exists, but that also means everything has something which is tied to it that gives it meaning... and is what is 'identified' with it. As such, the realization and thus following reaction can be utilized to remove part of the process, thus giving the impression that something occurred despite the lack of 'sufficient' action. There is no need to truly strike the target if one can actualize such a thing at a distance.
Refinement – Technical – What has yet to come... can always be made better... and better. There is no such thing as a flawless existence, and neither a perfect existence. As such, performance grows overtime with activity and pursuit in an endeavor or activity. Extends to combat experiences and scales with damage taken/done while gaining more in the event of a failure, minimal gain... or major gain/success. Moderate outcomes tend to generate less results/progress except for damage done to it.

Spells:
<Manifestation>: One may bring into being what one has knowledge thereof or need of. It is the truest sense of Actualization as it brings things into Existence. However, complexity and 'sentience' generally add much more cost, effort, and time needed to complete it, as well as power.

Why not start with it? Your path to the ideal of dominion is overwhelm. Follow your instincts and spam minions for the glory of the swarm.

I'm not on the 'list'. That's one part.

Second, you guys have at least 3 people that are overlapping in the same category/field. Gib isn't fully a builder, though his lends to it and has no conflict. Likewise, yours works out pretty well as well too.

Adyen's just looks purely like a min-max build especially towards immediate gains. It doesn't take that much to tell. It also contributes little to a group due to his initial stat load out, thus actual battle participation means someone has to cover his ass. Which... I see no tanks.

Unlike the previous iteration's group, this one is split between support/non-combatants and overly specialized- overlapping. Which means the group lacks firepower for hunting/etc. Overall it's not looking good IMO.

Re: [NSFW] A Pact of Monsters II [Garden of Monsters Civ/Rp/Council game]

If necessary I can change my guy to take the tank role. My ideal of Eternity fit's it well enough, I'd just need to change my Path and Philosophy.

Edit: here's a possible alteration.

Initial Path: Titan. To endure is to succeed, weathering the blows of your enemies you triumph against all odds. Your attacks shatter all that stands before with your strength, just as time erodes even the greatest of monuments. You have little use for stealth using it only to draw near to prey.

Operational Philosophy: You know the truth of the world, that only the mighty can truly endure. As such you shrug off blows which would kill your lessers and retaliate with unrelenting force. To ensure that your enemies can not flee your wrath, you have have learned stealth and patience. Better to wait till the moment is right and attack rather than see all you work wasted should your prey flee your wrath. Though mighty you have come to acknowledge that there is strength in numbers even if it will pass in time as all others do.

Spell:
Eternal Renewal – Even the might can be brought low, through what was once done can also be undone. By calling on his Ideal, the Eternal Storm undoes any damage done to him restoring what was once brought low.

Character Description: The Vorid that is known as the Eternal Storm seeks to endure and outlast all that is and will be. Stalking his prey and shrugging off their mightiest attacks even as his rend them limb from limb is his way. He considers others to be passing things that will fade in time, as such he rarely holds any emotion other than indifference to them. If something does catch his attention however, he will often pursue that it till his satisfaction is met.
