[Phobia]

I’m hype! I’ll have something soon. What does plus one quirk under advantages mean?

[Lentrax]

Quirks: We don't all fit neatly into archetypes, and now, neither do your characters!

So. You pick your 6 advantages from your archetypes and the list of Universal powers.

Once you have those 6 picked, you can choose any power of your choice from any of the archetypes.

[Phobia]

Okay great thanks ^^

[Ricka Draws]

Can we get a link to the Homebrew? I'm not familiar with it

Here you are.

[Ricka Draws]

Here you are.

Thanks, I'll try to focus on allure for the sake of fanservice

[Illven]

Is our protag GNC? Cause if so, I'm making an MtF egg.

[Phobia]

Do it anyway

Probably not. But you should play what you want anyway. Our protagonist will love everyone in her harem.

Do it anyway

This is the way.

Laila Hakobyan is an honor student from Portland, OR who got into Celestine Academy on scholarship. A straight A student in high school, she struggled to balance hobbies with schoolwork, and would often make sleep the thing that had to be sacrificed. The majority of her friends in high school were those she made through cosplay and LARP (Mystic Seas represent!), and she’s excited to see if she can find a local park in order to have something to look forward to on the weekends.

Spoiler: Mechanics

Show

Strong: Skill
Weak: Luck

Honor Student: You’re intelligent and naturally talented at schoolwork. +2 on Skill rolls involving logic, puzzles, or academics.

Contingency Plan: You always keep an extra option up your sleeve in case something randomly goes wrong with Plan A. Twice per episode, when making a roll, you may roll twice and take the higher result.

Foresight: When you’re able to correctly guess the results of your own actions, you can capitalize even on the worst of situations. Twice per episode, when making a roll, you may guess whether the result of your d6 will be even or odd. If you guess correctly, the result is counted as a 6.

Genre Savvy: You’ve watched enough harem anime to know where this is going… you don’t just stumble into unexpectedly romantic situations, you plan them. Twice per episode, you may substitute a Skill roll for a Luck roll.

Cosplay Enthusiast: You have a painstaking eye for detail that complements your love of cosplay. +2 on Skill rolls involving crafting disguises or costumes, and +2 on Allure rolls while dressed in cosplay.

2D Girl: You have a particular talent for going along with the protagonist when it comes to matters of 2D beauty. +2 to Allure rolls while watching a film, reading manga or watching anime. You also gain a +2 bonus to Skill rolls relating to recommending or setting up such things.

Practiced Kata (Quirk): Your tough training practice with foam swords has refined your combat style into an art form. Twice per episode, you may substitute a Skill roll for a Conflict roll.

[Illven]

Do it anyway

So she's def in the running, but I feel she would be perfect for a game with a protag that doesn't fit traditional gender norms. Effectively elevating the game to have themes of "what is gender?" etc etc/

If that makes sense?

[Lentrax]

I am fine with the Anubis homebrew stuff.

And Illven. Seriously. Play who you want. And if you want it to be a story to explore those themes, we can certainly do that. In fat, you may recall I made an archetype specifically for exploring that.

If it was on the list of homebrew in the post, just mention you are using it. I will blanket approve it all.

Riley was a sports prodigy back in High School but she never struggled in the classroom either which resulted in a full Scholarship to Celestine Academy to play college basketball. She was known to be the fastest on the court, the star player, back in High School but is finding it more difficult to balance the workload of college with her sports responsibilities, especially with parents that pushed her into a Business Major when she’s more interested in playing professionally. Back in her high school days Riley was always popular but never slowed down always rushing ahead to the next goal. But now that she’s here at Celestine Academy maybe a sudden unexpected connection will finally slow her world down.

1. Hypercharged: You’ve got the energy of two people crammed into one body. Twice per episode, in a scene where there are multiple options to choose from, you can take two options at once. You take -1 on both rolls and get the results of both options. If both options lead to the same goal, you take the better of the two results.

2. Overclock: You can summon up even more energy than normal at times, but you tend to burn out afterwards. Twice per episode, you can take +2 on any roll, but you take -2 on the next roll you make. You cannot use Overclock on the roll penalized by your first use of it. You may use Hypercharged and Overclock in the same scene; doing so allows you to make both rolls at +1, requires both uses of Overclock, and imposes -4 on your roll in the next scene. Whew!

3. Speedster: You somehow seem to move faster than any normal person without even trying. +2 to Skill rolls involving feats of speed or agility.

4. Competitive Spirit: You have the driving will to rise above the rest in any endeavor. +1 on rolls being attempted by any of the other PCs.

5. Self-Improvement: If there's something you've learned from your training, it's that any failing or weakness can be corrected with hard work and determination. You no longer have a weak roll, and may either select a second strong roll or increase your strong roll from +1 to +2.

6. Runner’s Glow: You positively beam with energy once you’ve got a good sweat going. +2 on Allure rolls during or soon after heavy physical exertion.

7. (Quirk) Violence is Always the Answer: Why look for fancy solutions when your fists would do the trick? +1 on Conflict rolls if you had the option of using another roll type instead.

Someone who's out of the closet but recently and is mid transitioning at the moment, or that's how I envision she

Not quite obvious, but really no one was surprised in my case.

Oh wow just noticed your changed icon. Congrats. And yeah, several of us were very egg-y five years ago.

Oh? Nonbinary, or MtF? Feel free to not answer of course.

Non-binary, though I’m a year on estradiol and just started prog a week or so ago. It’s been a night and day shift.

I'd say that obvious one as she was like that at some point, kinda not exactly the same but gets the vibes

I guess, I'm still transitioning, it's kinda troublesome here but this is what I want, I'm mtf

How would you all feel about moving this to a discord server?

We would have a bit more freedom there, and also have the opportunity to avoid slowdowns caused by the forums running slow because of cloud flare problems.
