Random Magic Generator RTD: Thread passed to Cerapa.
« on: May 29, 2012, 12:11:06 pm »

See this thread. We will use this.

 I don't have a lot of time nowadays and this is doomed to be a total wreck, so we'll have only 4 players. And this definitely won't be serious. I expect hilarity to ensue.

 Plot: You are disciples of the Generimagic Academy. You are sent to a pocket dimension made to test your skills. Your goal is to retrieve the Sacred Crystal, which will mark you as an official mage. However since you are just newbies, you get really, really horrible useless spells.

 System: Standard RTD rolls. You all have 10 mana. You regenerate 2 each turn. You may only use spells you memorized. When you join, I will let you pick 4 from 8 randomly generated spells. Since 99% are useless, this not as generous as it sounds. I will add a mana cost to each one for balance. Also, to make this more playable, I will make some spells usable on different targets rather than just yourself and have different statuses have different effect on gameplay.

Name: Ironside
Form: A metal plated golem. Has a single Eyestalk. Not very inclined to speak.
Bio: A remnant from an ancient era. Since the original spirit that powered it was long gone, it was used as the receptible for the soul a dying wizard. Sadly it seems much was lost in transit, including most of his memories and his emotions. Not that he was a very powerfull wizard anyway.

Sure, why not.

Name: Derm (Of course)
Bio: Classical Derm. Has little to no motivation other than to run around blindly, gain power, and wreak havoc along the way.

hmm...

1  A thunderstorm begins out of nowhere for an hour.
2  It is chilly and frosty outside for the rest of the day. A thick fog rolls in for a week.
3  A torrential rain falls for the rest of the day.
4  Your navel turns golden and throbs in pain, then you turn into a catperson.
5  Your penis, if any, begins glowing, but only for a few minutes.
6  Your left ear has an orgasm for the rest of the day.
7  Your penis, if any, turns dark purple and falls off, then everyone can read your mind.
8  A thunderstorm begins out of nowhere and then you become an electric elemental.

What in the hell.

Uh, I'll take 8, 3, 4 and 2 I guess.

Name: Freeform

Spells:
At The End of the Rainbow (A veritable monsoon-like downpour begins and then a pile of gold appears in front of you for the rest of the day.)
Half-assed Ice Form (Your left hand feels icy cold for a week.)
Summon Noon (The sun shifts to noon-high and glares brightly.)
Wide-range Prune Curse (Everybody in the room but you shrivels for the rest of the day.)

 You need a bio (at least a single sentence) and this is not how spells work.

When you join, I will let you pick 4 from 8 randomly generated spells.

 I'll post the lists, so I can make sure that you choose fairly, without generating too many spells or something.
 Same for derm, sorry for not being clear enough.
 
 I'll post the spell lists for everyone soon. I have to add mana costs and think of possible gameplay effects so this will take a bit.

I added a bio, and I got those spell effects by randomly generating four of them. I just added names which I can remove. What else do you need?

EDIT: OH, I get it now. You confused me since you posted the link to the generator. I'll wait on the spell list.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

2.  A strong wind picks up and then you glimpse into the future.
3.  The walls bleed around you repeatedly.
4.  Your right hand enlarges, but only for a few minutes. Your head begins glowing for the rest of the day.
5.  An apocalyptic flaming hailstorn rends the land and then you turn into a mouse.
6.   ALL OF YOUR EYES turn lemon yellow and then you turn into a dogperson for a week.
7.  It begins hailing and then you become more fleetfooted permanently.
8.  A torrential rain falls and then you become a fire elemental.

Thank you. I seemed to have missed that.
