Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
So. I've been thinking about this for a while, and I think I have decided to follow through with it.
We have creepy in one age direction. Why not the other?
Spoiler: Imouto-chan (The Little Sister)
I have to make sure that, no matter what happens, nobody takes Onii-chan away from me!
You're my role model!: You strive to follow in the footsteps of your big brother. And doing so is incredibly endearing. +2 to Allure rolls made in situations where you look to Onii-chan for advice.
Childish Taunting: You may not understand exactly why all these girls are fighting over Onii-chan, but you won't let them get away with ignoring you 'cause you're small! +2 on opposed Conflict rolls.
I just haven't grown up yet!: You may be flat as a pancake right now, but you are sure that when puberty hits, your breasts will inspire awe in everyone around you, and get them to listen to you. +2 on Allure rolls where breast size is brought up by players other than you.
Puppy-Dog Eyes: Like a look from a cat, this facial expression melts all but the coldest of hearts. Twice per episode, you may make a d4 Allure roll. If you succeed, gain a +2 bonus to the current roll.
But Big Brotherrrrr!: Nobody can resist you when the waterworks really start. Once per episode, you may treat a failed unopposed Conflict roll as a success.Last edited by Lentrax; 2016-11-25 at 02:44 AM.

I'll add this in a moment. I will suggest that I just haven't grown up yet, get boosted up to a +2 bonus. I don't think it'll be consistent enough for a +1.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
Well, I warned you that I would soon be homebrewing stuff. Here's a set of archetypes for HSHC games set in the UK. They'd probably work for the US, too, if you reskinned English Rose as a Southern Belle and Ladette as... whatever you call ladettes in America.
Let me know what you think! There's a few things that I'm not sure about the balance of as well, so let me know if you see any problems.
Spoiler: British ArchetypesArtsy Girl
Spoiler"Ah, protagonist-kun, I was just looking for someone to model for me."
You are an artiste. You deal in creativity, inspiration and beauty; things like 'being practical' and 'fitting in' are not for you. No, it will take a bold statement to win the protagonist's heart, and none but you have the vision to make it happen!
Creative. Art is your thing. +2 on skill rolls involving painting, sculpting, drawing or any other visual art form.
Culture Vulture. You love to immerse yourself in cultured pastimes like plays and festivals. +1 on allure, luck, and skill rolls while taking part in high culture activities.
Drama Queen. Your reputation for extreme behaviour allows you to get away with outbursts that would land others in trouble. Once per episode, you may treat a failed unopposed allure roll as a success.
Eccentric Outfit. You treat life as a form of performance art, right down to the clothes you wear. This often proves serendipitous. +2 to luck rolls when wearing something ridiculous.
So European. Your metropolitan lifestyle means that you are familiar with the latest trends from the continent. When you make an opposed skill roll relating to fashion and the avant-garde, anyone else making a skill roll takes -2.
Celtic Lass
Spoiler"Top o' the mornin' to ya, protagonist-kun!"
With your flame-red hair and lilting brogue, you possess an exotic charm that none of these other girls can compete with. There's no way the protagonist is going to be able to resist you!
Friends Among the Fair Folk. You know all sorts of tricksy sprites and bogles who will sometimes help you achieve your aims - but there is always a price to pay for their aid... Twice per episode, you may take +2 on an conflict or luck roll, but you then take -2 on your next luck roll.
Highland Fury. The Celts are a warrior race, and fighting is in your blood. +1 on opposed conflict rolls.
Luck o' the Irish. Sometimes, things just go your way. Twice per episode, you can substitute a luck roll for a skill roll.
Musically Inclined. Whether it's your beautiful singing voice, your Irish dancing skills or your flair for the bagpipes, you are a master of all things musical +2 to allure rolls involving making or dancing to music.
Rain Magnet. You're quite used to getting rained on and always carry an umbrella, even in summer. +2 on luck rolls relating to rain, wind or other adverse weather.
English Rose
Spoiler"Good evening, protagonist-kun. It is such a pleasure to see you."
You represent the platonic ideal of an English lady. Gentle, refined and confident, your natural charm will surely draw the protagonist to you!
Fainting Fits. Sometimes, your delicate constitution cannot bear the strains placed so cruelly upon it. Twice per episode, you may impose -2 on all Conflict rolls made in a given scene.
Heart of Kindness. You are a beacon of virtue and gentleness. Once per episode, you may substitute an allure roll for any other type of roll.
Naturally Gifted. You have been blessed from birth with curiously good luck. Sometimes it seems that everything you touch turns to gold! Twice per episode, you can gain +2 on a luck roll as long as you are not using any of your other advantages.
Silk Hiding Steel. You may be demure most of the time, but you also have a spirited side. Twice per episode, you can gain +2 on conflict rolls if you had the option of using another type of roll instead.
Socialite. You're comfortable hobnobbing with the nobility. +2 on opposed allure and conflict rolls while in polite company.
Spiffing Hat. You know the value of a good hat, and have one for every conceivable occasion. +2 on allure rolls while wearing a hat and outdoors.
Goth Girl
Spoiler"Protagonist-kun? ...whatever."
Perhaps you came for the music and stayed for the aesthetic, perhaps it was the other way around. In either case, you have embraced the gloomy, baroque stylings of a goth. Who knows, maybe the protagonist will fall for your mysterious charms?
Black is the New Black. You look good in black. Which is lucky, because it's all you ever wear. +1 to allure rolls when you are wearing mostly black.
Creature of the Night. You have an affinity for animals associated with night and darkness. +2 on skill rolls involving nocturnal animals such as cats, bats, rats and moths.
Dark Magic. You have always been interested in witchcraft and druidry. +2 on conflict and luck rolls involving the occult.
Death Glare. All live in fear of your icy gaze. Any other girls who attempt the same conflict roll as you take a -1 on their roll.
Gothy Handwave. Sometimes, you just can't be bothered to do anything, so you just watch instead. Twice per episode, you can voluntarily skip a roll where VP are on offer. The next unopposed roll you make after the skipped one is an automatic success.
Terrible Poetry. You have journals full of melodramatic poetry that you love to inflict on anyone who will listen. Whenever you fail a roll in which you recited poetry, anyone else who heard you takes -1 on their next roll.
Hippie Chick
Spoiler"Hey protagonist-man, love is like, free, you know?"
It's been decades since being a hippie was cool, but that doesn't deter you in the slightest. The beatnik values of freedom, sharing and love appeal to you and, with any luck, they'll appeal to the protagonist, too!
'Amateur Pharmacist'. To you, mind-altering substances are a route to spiritual enlightenment. +2 on luck and skill rolls relating to illicit drugs.
Aura of Patchouli. Your devotion to herbal skincare is both good for your skin and off-putting to your rivals! Twice per episode, you may impose -2 on all allure rolls made in a given scene.
Lucky Charms. You sleep under a hodge-podge of lucky charms from all different cultures. One of them must work, right? Three times per episode, if you roll a 1, you may re-roll the die. You must accept the second roll and cannot roll it again, even if it is a 1.
Make Love, Not War. The hippie mantra encourages you to seek diplomatic solutions. Twice per episode, you can substitute an allure roll for a conflict roll.
Naturist. Human beings were never meant to wear clothes. +2 on skill rolls involving nudity or a lack of clothing.
Ladette
Spoiler"Oi, protagonist-kun! I've got 'alf a bottle of vodka wit' your name on it!"
The moral guardians may look down on you, but they're just a bunch of boring old suits. Binge drinking is fine as long as you only do it once a week, right?
Am I Bovvered? No, you ain't bovvered. Is the answer... to that question. Whenever another girl would impose a negative modifier on your roll, the magnitude of that modifier is reduced by one.
Anti-Social Behaviour. You fear nobody, and think nothing of antagonising teachers, rivals or even the police. Twice per episode, you may impose a -2 on all skill rolls made in a given scene.
Liver of Steel. You have a remarkable tolerance for alcohol for such a young person. +2 on skill rolls involving booze or drinking.
No Respect for Authority. Sometimes, you just have to stand up and fight the power. +2 on conflict rolls when defying a figure of authority.
One of the Lads. Your mates have a fearsome reputation and would be glad of any excuse to rough somebody up. Once per episode, you may treat a failed unopposed conflict roll as a success.Last edited by Ninja_Prawn; 2017-07-01 at 12:22 PM.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
A lot of those look good, though Lucky Charms should maybe follow the trend of Sealed Power and have a 3/ep limit. Heart of Kindness similarly should follow the other abilities that roll one ability in place of another, 2/ep, no bonus.

I'd nerf heart of kindness. Being able to sub allure for any roll instead of one another type is quite a power boost.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
The only thing I can think of, is you can do it 2/ep but only one type of roll (Unopposed or opposed) or 1/ep but it also gives a bonus.
Onto my suggestion.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
I think that would be the best way to keep its idea while not turning it into a "You lose." Perhaps slightly alter the fluff to going off of someone else's idea, rather than countering it?

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
I don't think it's that bad, honestly. Its a slightly more restrictive Non Sequitur, but to make up for not getting to replace the roll with any oher roll, you get it twice per ep, and no penalty. But if you really want to nerf it, I'd say leave it as is, and give the same -1 penalty as Non Sequitur.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
So, I was updating some of my stupid super-builds with the new English homebrew (among other gems), and came across this from the English stuff, and I just have to ask...
...skill? If this was intentional, I think I need it explained how being naked makes you more skillful across the board like that. More skilled at moving around without restrictive clothing? Sure, I can buy that. More skilled at body-based art (whether art on your body or art about the human body like sculptures or paintings)? Bit of a stretch, but maybe. More skilled at test-taking? Hrm...
I think this was supposed to be Allure (essentially a non-Pervert version of Shameless), but I'm not totally sure.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
I can't actually remember what my original reasoning was, except that it was intentional.
I think I was thinking it's like, the hippie believes that being naked is their natural state, so it puts her in a positive mindset. Without the artificial barrier of clothing, she's more open to gaia's energy or whatever. You know, standard hippie mumbo-jumbo.Lydia Seaspray by Oneris!

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
Hmm...hippie magic based on the placebo effect, or possibly even actually nekkid-magic? In retrospect, it's probably good it isn't Allure so that it couldn't stack with Shameless, although now I anticipate players taking even more opportunities to strip naked for the scene.
The only other thing that stood out to me as a bit weird mechanically was Black Is The New Black, which is essentially an always-on +1 to all rolls that stacks with other dress powers (it's +1 to all rolls while wearing only black clothing). Always-on +1 stacking with other dress powers isn't a huge issue (Boyish Charm does that), but having the always-on +1 to every roll seems a bit much if Boyish Charm is considered balanced (since BC only gets the always-on stacking +1 to Allure rolls). Ultimately, it's a small issue; even if it's definitely more powerful than some always-on abilities, it's not quite at School Queen/Connections/Poker Face tier.

Re: High School Harem Comedy (Game System, PEACH)
Hmm...I dunno. This is one of the problems with balancing dress powers: most of them are balanced around some kind of strict dress code or uniform system, but a lot of games don't play in a setting that has those. Beyond that, the advantage as-is doesn't apply if you're accenting your clothes with secondary goth colors like dark purples, dark blues, and dark greys, which feels weird to me. My instinct would be to make it more like Boyish Charm, where you have Allure +1 when wearing predominantly black clothing; my understanding is that within a uniform game, an always-on +1 isn't a huge issue, even if it occasionally stacks with another dress power. Comparatively, making it +2 Allure instead of +1 any opens it up to being abused in a game without uniforms - well, not opens up, since the current version can be abused in a non-uniform game too, but it'd be abused in a different way if it was Allure +2 instead of any +1. And that doesn't even touch on how it's also making you better at everything, rather than just making you look good (you are somehow luckier, tougher, and smarter when wearing all black?).
I dunno, it's an ongoing problem I have with the system: it's not always easy balancing the mechanics while also fitting the mechanics to the fluff. My advice for balance is to make it more like Boyish Charm, where it's "predominantly black outfits" and thus an always-on +1 Allure in both a uniform and non-uniform game, but I'm sure somebody a bit more experienced than myself might have a decent argument for why it's okay the way it is.
To be clear, it's not broken. It just seems a little too easy to set-up in a non-uniform game to me, and when those games are far more common around here than games with uniforms, it tips the balance even more.

Ooh, lovely! Celtic Lass looks interesting...particularly for a Luck-focused build.
