Is this CS Template any good? :P

Another thing you could do is put some of the smaller bits of information side by side So it could go something like....

Age ○ Race ○ Gender
Height ○ Weight ○ Build
Eyes ○ Hair ○ Skin tone

And then all filled out it would look like...

35 ○ Lizzard ○ Female
6'2 ○ 225 ○ Athletic
Yellow ○ None ○ Scales

or you could leave the keys in, as I suspect eye and hair color would get mixed up otherwise. But you get the idea, you can save some space this way if you hate tall sheets.

Is this CS Template any good? :P

@Bartimaeus The character sheet serves it's purpose, provided you want to know all that information. Most arena fighters are concerned with how your character fights. Things like who they are married to, who/what they want to have sex with, and what their fears are probably aren't important enough to warrant their own section. Some people will find fault with having so many hiders. I heard they are annoying to click on with mobile devices. If you want the character sheet to be smaller so that they can be more easily browsed in the character tab, you could just lump everything inside one hider. People are going to be most interested in what your character can do in combat, which is another reason not to keep that stuff in hiders. Not only that, but it's at the very bottom of the sheet, which is typically where you want your miscellaneous/unimportant stuff. I would consider simplifying the appearance and social behavior section to just a space where one can write a paragraph. If you really want everyone to know your character is married to a lesbian lizard goddess, you can include that in their history/bio section, which would be pretty low on the sheet.

From an aesthetic standpoint, it presents the information it wishes to convey. It's by no means the fanciest, but some people get so into making a CS that it's almost impossible to fill out and even harder to read once all the information is in place. Needless to say, that's kind of the opposite of what you want a CS to do.

If someone wanted to fight me in arena or have me fill this out before joining an RP, I wouldn't be deterred. It's not a bad sheet.

Lunacy of Love: A CYOA Magical Girl Roleplay [Completed]

Weaving through Justine's matrix of projectiles wasn't something anyone could describe as easy. Her projectiles were numerous, sometimes fired projectiles of their own, and didn't even all come from Justine's direction. But Sue was a secret touhou was a nimble flier. She wasn't bound to the floor, so she had the option to fly over and under her attacks. It was fortunate that Justine was spreading out her attacks so much. Sue would hate to be the sole target of her barrage.

The former familiar needed to have extreme situational awareness to make sure she avoided Justine's projectiles. Fortunately the projectiles distorted the air just enough for Sue to notice. But she wasn't leaving it all to her magical senses. She needed to keep her ears and eyes peeled as well. Perhaps that's why she heard Sil struggling behind her. Sue was still new to her powers, and hadn't learned to tell who was where yet. Even so, the giant marble floor was falling through the sky. Trying to feel their exact location would be difficult even for an experienced magical girl. She couldn't take her eyes off of Justine, so she could only assume Sil was being attacked by Janet. While the elimination of Justine was certainly high on Sue's goals, she also didn't want to lose anyone else. Deni, Amber, she had killed enough people already.

Sue opened her wings and floated backwards with the projectiles, all while evading them as she descended towards the falling platform. At this point Sue was able to properly gauge the situation. As it turned out, Sil was simply going to become an unwilling projectile from one of her allies. If Sue wasn't already furious, this would have angered her further. It would have been preferable if she could keep advancing on Justine's position, especially since she knew Helga was now advancing solo. But seeing Sil positioned like that, accepting her roll as a projectile. She didn't look willing, but it gave Sue an idea. She snatched Sil out of the air and hugged her against her waist. Scout was strong, but throwing struggling people as projectiles wasn't quite in the cards for her. Sue flew herself and Sil behind Alex's barrier to give everyone a quick message.

”I can't steady the platform anymore. Our opponent is too strong.” Sue had been releasing her hold on the falling floor for some time now, but it was going to start falling much faster now that Sue was releasing her full magical grip on it. ”We're going to kill Justine before you reach the ocean. Just survive until then.” And then Sue blasted off. She now had all of her magic to work with. She was going to funnel as much as she could to charging up another attack, but still needed to expend her energy keeping herself afloat. Sue had to keep Sil up too, but that shouldn't be a problem now that she wasn't trying to maintain the floor. ”Here's the deal, Shade.” Justine's projectiles had caught up with Sue again, forcing her to swerve around them. ”Once I get close enough, I'm going to blast you in Justine's direction. So keep your shape as aerodynamic and possible.” She corkscrewed between two large spheres of energy before hovering over a laser. ”And we're not debating this.” Sue was gaining altitude, even going as far as trying to fly over Justine. Just to keep the vampire on her toes, she briefly released an arm on Sil's waist to fire a weak thunder shot at Justine. It might gain the unwanted ire of the vampire, but anything that might help her friends survive was worth trying.

Yeesh, what was Sue smoking? Even Tonya was having a hard time dodging so many projectiles. Fortunately, Alexander's barrier created a bit of cover that she could use. She totally understood why Lily would use him as a pocket healer, even if the notion was one Tonya found a bit crude.

Lunacy of Love: A CYOA Magical Girl Roleplay [Completed]

I am curious though... How high can one's luck go?

Name: Shamrock Sally

Appearance:

You know

Apparently, she's a loli with the biggest rack in existence, so she gets +1 luck. Her uniform doesn't matter. (5 Luck so far)

Specialization: Empathic and psych both add +2 (7 luck so far)

Weapon: Doesn't matter, appears to be a handgun though. (7 luck so far)

Power: #1: Shouldn't matter, as nothing adds to Luck.

Perks: You can pick up to three perks from the support side of the table that add to luck. You could also use a copper coin to snag one additional perk, but there's no point since you'll get a point spending the coin on Luck anyway. Also, sally doesn't look like a boy, so I guess she has closure, fated, and a way out.

(10 luck so far)

Patron: Mystical might lets you add +1 to any magical stat, which is Magic or Luck. Because magical girls get a free benefit, she can take this despite working for beacon. (11 luck so far)

Sally probably avoided death, but another magical girl took her place. So she has an extra silver coin. Her 5 silver coins and 4 bronze coins allow her to add 14 more points to Luck. (25 luck so far)

If she really wanted to, she could use her gold coin on luck. but that's sacrilege! (29 luck so far)

So I stand corrected. It is actually possible to get really close with a vanilla magical girl. A monster girl could hit 30+ luck by simply taking a second magic type that added to luck. But do you really want to spend a gold coin on more luck? seems like a waste...

Lunacy of Love: A CYOA Magical Girl Roleplay [Completed]

I appreciate your dedication to the cause

@Flamelord

Autism should never be celebrated.

Was the second weapon a Gold Coin purchase? Great number crunching here, good job. Not that I'll accept it, heh.

@Ariamis

Second weapon was indeed a gold coin purchase. Gold coins seem like the one way to give your character something cool, and spending it on stats feels like a waste. (no offense to best boi alex.)

As for not accepting it, That means the above build will only yield 29 vitality. However, I just remembered that emergency allows one to pick two combat related feats and shift everything else over to the combat side for free. So in choosing this perk, the above build will only yield 28 Vitality, but I can shift the two support perks over to something vitality related to get it up to 30. I can even use my fifth perk for something vitality related, which gets me 31. Then if I so chose I could pick light or odd ball as a specialization, or simply select a different outfit, body shape, etc.

Or maybe you meant that you wouldn't accept the character. But at 30 Vitality, magical girls can even survive GM intervention. But I have too many characters already so I will respect your choice.

Lunacy of Love: A CYOA Magical Girl Roleplay [Completed]

I do not apologize for double posts. No one else does.

So I wanted to demonstrate how someone could get 30 vitality if they were very lucky (or cheated) because I was bored.

Name: Lunar Ocean

Appearance:

lulz art

We're going to say she has an average body and take the vitality bonus. We're also going to call that a uniform. (6 vitality so far)

Specialization: Stone. I wanted a darkness character, but if I'm going for 30 vitality as a vanilla magical girl, this is my only option. (9 vitality so far)

Weapon: We're going to go with two melee weapons, because spending a gold coin for a stat boost is LAAAAME (11 vitality so far)

Oh, and because I'm cheating, I'm going to grab the contract that adds +1 to my weapon's stat. So it's currently +2 vit per weapon. I mean, the contract isn't really clear if you add + 1 to your second weapon, but the way I see it is, a dark magical girl's second weapon is twice as strong as her primary weapon. So I'm going to apply this bonus to both of my weapons. Though obviously this would be up to the GM. (13 vitality so far)

Power: #1: Shouldn't matter, as nothing adds to Vit.

Perks:

Enhanced weapon, because it effects both weapons. So I now have two +3 Vit weapons. (15 vitality so far)

Duel weapon is tempting, but I can't pick melee weapons, so no extra VIT. So I can pick any Vit based ability I want, which could be gifted, blood magic, etc. I will not take metamorphisis because I want my vitality ALL THE TIME! (16 vitality so far)

Nothing on the second table adds to Vit, and if you spend a bronze coin to flip to a vit stat, you can't spend it on the stat itself. So nothing you do here really matters as far as your Vit stat is concerned.

Patron: For stat boosting, Deity is the best option. You get +1 to all your physical stats. Also make sure to pick physical prowess as a bonus benefit. Then just make sure none of your other options reduce vitality. (18 vitality so far)

And 4 silver and 4 bronze is 12 points in vitality (30 vitality so far)

Stats (Untransformed):
STR: Varies
AGI: 4
VIT: Varies
MAG: 3
LCK: Varies

Stats (Transformed):
STR: 7
AGI: 5
VIT: 30
MAG: 4
LCK: Varies

So in the end, I have a magical girl who is very durable, strong enough to pick up a full grown human with ease, slightly faster than the average human, and has utility-level magic. There is a little bit of variety in how her perks and power line up. If I got power of friendship, she could be a diplomat willing to talk it out with even the most aggressive foes. Regeneration is an obvious choice for a durable combatant, or maybe your roll in a fight is to distract your opponent with your tentacles, or simply hang off their arm while your friends wail on them.

As for getting other stats to 30, it's definitely doable. Agility can actually get a little higher because of how stupid the bonus from air is, but your other stats will be pretty empty. Strength is much easier due to Gauntlets giving you 2 strength, and more element choices offering 3 strength. Mag is also possible, but you'd be locked into gravity, as you can only get 1 extra Mag out of your patron. Luck is of course a big nope, even if you're a DMG or MG. But again, 30 being possible for vitality and magic really rides on weather the GM would let you apply that contact bonus to both weapons, provided you didn't decide to just spend the gold coin on a flat stat boost. Even so, you still need to be lucky enough to get all that other stuff at random. You did randomly roll all of your rolls, right? You weren't one of those people who picked a contract and then "smugged" their way through the rest of the character sheet were you?

The moral of the story: Just enjoy your damn characters.

Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage (Finished!)

@Majoras End You can post them in the character tab.

@Warpcircuit Very well, Lucy is yours.

@Vocab@Aewin@FamishedPants@addamas@Melo@ThatCharacter@Ariamis@Mateotis@AimeChambers

I will write the chapter ending post over the weekend, which for someone in retail like myself is Sunday/Mondayish. I'm also American, so timezones and the like need to be factored into that.

With everyone's new characters in the RP, we have 20 characters total. That doesn't account for any of the NPCs (of which I count Caora among them) That's 24 characters total. From here on out, I'm going to be looking to shrink that number as much as possible. One could say the plans are already laid...

But just because the next chapter is beginning doesn't mean my work is over. Before I even tackle the case, I need to do these important tasks.

-Add the last chapter to the chronicle, so it may be preserved even if this forum falls.

-Update the Character tab, so we may know those lost, loved, and living.

-Restructure the OOC page, so the players may know harmony.

-Create a map of the next floor, for a perilous journey is deserving of guidance.

-Flesh out the NoC, for the spread of carnage need not be a chaotic endeavor.

You guys can actually help with some of this. I need room ideas for the resort and hospital towers, as well as brief descriptions of them. You could make a blueprint of the floor. It doesn't have to be pretty, so long as I can make a map out of it we should be fine.

I also need everyone who has ideas for the NoC to message me. Be it your character being impaled on Alexandria's pike, or an interesting challenge/motivation for the characters.

Lastly, I am still deciding on a blackened and victim for this case. Do know that the case five characters have already been selected, and this will be your last chance to participate in either one of these rolls.

AND ONE FINAL NOTE!

If you are going to come to me and offer to sacrifice your characters to the despair gods, be it victim, blackened, or something else, there are no take backs. I had a victim bail on me for the last case, and two NoC fatalities bail on me. Neither of these instances were fun to deal with, and I almost regret letting them off the hook so easy. So just a word of warning: Once you say yes, they're mine!

Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage (Finished!)

”Threaten?” Kyra raised an eyebrow, but she wasn't going to get a response from Cyrus, who left in a huff.

Emily wanted to greet the new patients as soon as possible. But upon her arrival, she became aware of how many other infinites were ready to do the exact same thing. The old Emily might have cut in front of everyone and throw herself in front of the new infinites, calling out her name, title, all before ordering Thomas to talk to them. But that was probably the last thing they wanted. As is, they were surrounded by a bunch of new faces, half of which they would likely forget. It was a lot to take in, and even Emily wasn't really ready for everyone when she was introduced into this killing game. Instead, her roll here would be to stand by and watch over anyone that might need her help. After Calvin's outburst, she immediately approached the metalworker. ”It's alright Calvin. First impressions are important, but they aren't everything!” Emily wore a nervous smile. ”Remember how I was acting at the party? I let one of my mistakes ruin an entire evening of wonders, for myself and everyone else.” She forced herself to chuckle. ”But I'm not going to let that stop me from being a better roll model in the future, and you shouldn't either!” Did that sound forced? It would be a long time before she had everyone's respect again.

”Hey!” Monokuma popped out of the floor. ”There's like twenty of you guys now! Do you know how long it'll take fort you all to introduce each other? The average person doesn't have time to exchange names with so many people at once!” The bear furiously thrust his paw forward. ”You guys can't even say a few words to these cubs without blowing a gasket. That's why it's best to just leave everything to the automated Monokuma express introduction system.” He pointed at a monitor. ”Alright girls, roll daddy's mix tape!”

A picture of the Horologist appeared on the monitor. ”Juliette Claire-Ora Bourbon, wow, say that five times fast. She even shares her last name with a drink, which you will likely have to take after saying her name that many times. Apparently she's pretty good at counting time. But she's kind of pointless with the advent of clocks being built into our cell phones. She's a time traveler too by the way. Yea, she travels folward in time at about one second per second.”

The next was a picture of the gunslinger. ”That thar's George Henry, the most rootin-tootin gunslinger the initiative has. But sunny boy here almost got beat out by a master of them-thar Indian contraptions. Maybe he'll be done in by the advent of devilcraft on the ol' tell-E-phone.”

And finally, the Biologist ”Noah Adam Dyer is apparently very acustom to looking at dead bodies. Probably because he spends so much time in the student body. You know, those collage girls are right up everyone's ally. And while he may look like a little tyke, he's actually a grown man. But don't worry, his current shape fits his mental maturity juuuuust fine!”

Monokuma nodded after the monitor turned off. ”I outdid myself this time.” He turned to look at Daimyon. ”Hey, you know that book you haven't told anyone about? The one with the school girl? Yea, you might wanna think about going to the carnival. Everything else is there.” The bear continued to stare at Daimyon.

Danganronpa Alternate: Apologies to Hope

When Alice took off running, Davis simply grinned and placed his hands on his hips, still clutching his tie. ”You heard her! The time limit is off!” He lifted a hand in front of his face and closed it into a fist. ”Conquest is mine, it really is!” He chuckled before approaching Lilly. She wasn't the most physically able person, and in putting so much into her tackle, she fell shortly after Alice dodged out of the way. ”And it's yours too! Such an ambitious tackle was just what my plan needed.” He offered his hand to the hacker, which she took this time. Once she was on her feet, he kissed the back of her hand. ”Thank you for your assistance. We should discuss how we're going to get Rosetta back post haste, as well as... Other matters.”Davis released her hand to fetch his PDA. ”How about we go to these...Labs? I trust they will be a bit more formal discussion area than the cabins. Or did you have other ideas?”

Neola was glad that Kara had returned to their small group, evident by her smile. One of the great things about Sayaka was that as an idol, you're suppose to be excited when you see people. But Neola wasn't entirely sure if this was the correct way to be in this situation. Everyone still seemed kind of worried. ”Well, if you had a rubber suit, you could still climb it, right?” She tipped her head. ”So we just need to find a rubber-” But then it happened. It took the smile right off of Neola's face. Sensations deep in her body that she couldn't explain. Not in character anyway. Her hands shifted over her skirt, but she quickly threw them away, knowing that Sayaka would never do something like that. But her knees were starting to shake. Neola hugged herself. It was too much. It was kind of embarrassing, but if she played her cards right, she could tell everyone else what she needed to do to alleviate this sensation. ”Uuuuuuuummmmmmm...” She looked between Snow and Kara. ”Does anyone need to go tho the bathroom?”

Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage (Finished!)

@FamishedPants You may post him in the character tab.

Also, I've decided to put Lucy up for adoption. There will be some special conditions when playing her though, but I've decided I don't need to take direct control of her if someone else is willing.
