{Great pot:2+1]
[Tsuchi pot:1]
[Tsuchi end:4]

Well, great gets a little ring of squid with drink coaster sized shields that lay limply around him and wiggle.

Tsuchi can only watch as a giant hammer appears, proceeds to nail an electrified stone nail into his shin and then vanish. Now both his legs are fucked.


Good thing I'm not tracking bloodloss for now, eh?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACT!

They're made of leadamantine though, right?

"Adamantine Clockwork Acid Spike Axe!" Imagine a spikey axe with a blade that drips acid. It is made of adamantine and clockworky stuff.

Decapitate Tsuchi with said axe.

The orbs might make it kinda hard to close in without damage, but even if they don't...

Wahaha.
Cover ears, not that it will help, then...

[Great speed:1+1]
[Tsuchi speed:3+1]

[tsuchi pot:6]
[Tsuchi dex:5]
Tsuchi channels the great spirits of hair metal bands past and focuses every guitar riff, every screaming lyric, every drum solo into a single concentrated beam of all things Rock and Roll and fires it straight at Great's head.

QUICK REACT, GREAT!

"Force Ichor Blast-Wall!" Imagine a wall of force in front of me, with a layer of ichor on the other side, blocking the shout and propelling the ichor forward.

...So yeah, you take that blast of concentrated force and heavy metal straight to the face. It shatters your ear drums, explodes your teeth, turns your eyes into mush and basically reduces your flesh into hamburger. You're not really dead, but at this point you can't talk so we're gonna disqualify you now.



ALRIGHT. NEXT UP, 3 Man BATTLE ROYALE

This time: Make up a standard character, but you have 5 extra points to put wherever you want. Pool is back to normal. Tsuchi and the first other two.

Oh and one more thing, a new mechanic: Empowerment.  You can drain pool into any stat to give it a temporary boost. Each point of pool used equals one extra point in that stat. Lasts to the end of the turn. It's a free action so you can do it and then act on the same action.




Also, I want you all to look at the list of words. Suggestions for ANYWHERE in there? Suggestions of any kind for new mechanics? Suggestions at all. I'm considering moving on to modifiers  if there are none.

More neat little adjectives. Re-add the tattoos. Maybe work on a simple rune system?

I think you have one extra point to put in, if I'm remembering right...it was 11 normally, plus 5 for this, right?


Also tattoos or something like them will come back. But they're gonna be rebalanced. Old tattoos were about as OP as black holes, so either the act of transforming needs to be made more difficult, or more costly.

But thats where my idea for dice pools comes in (more on that later)

Thrakor Plus

Str 0
End 1
Spd 3
Dex 3
Awr 0

Now I'm beginning to doubt if it really was 11 points...

Spoiler: Character (click to show/hide)

Well..regardless of it it was right or wrong, you all have the same number of points, so I guess that will work.




ALRIGHT!

Remember, you only have 1 action and 1 reaction per round. That means that getting into 2 on 1 fights is gonna be more difficult then normal one on ones.



[dragon speed:1+1]
[Thrakor speed:3+1]
[Elephant speed:6-1]
[Tsuchi speed:3+1]
Alright, thats the order for this round. Everybody act!

((I just went off GWG's count of points.  Pretty sure it was 10, though.))

Yeah, he was...but people posted faster then him.

If he still wants to be in it, he can enter as the fourth contestant.

Yeah, lets turn this into a fourway, baby.

Oh hell yes.
Oh, also, going to post character sheet right under this in a second

You know, imbue words would be nice. Also, words such as Overdrive (effect becomes much greater- fire sword and Overdrive Fire Sword- the Overdrive one has mastery of fire, and a single swing might be able to melt steel and launch fireballs, but come at a very heavy cost, such as every use permanently reducing a stat.

Maybe a word for Shifting/Staged? Clockwork kinda works if I wanted a shortsword that folded out into a 2H sword, but maybe I want something else thematically... just an idea.

Include a fantasy Base that reacts VERY violently with the current Acid?

I'd personally like to see a new section of descriptors, that could kinda produce stuff like Zeus Stone, but in more words. Piezoelectric fungus: don't step on it. That kind of thing.

Also, sound attacks sure are fun. Especially since I just watched the latest Kill la Kill, i.e, the latter half of the fight with Jazakure. She was in a giant blimp that fired music lasers and recorder missiles.

---

Also, if you've got rock and roll, why not include other types of music/have a little addendum for those who would want to, if you don't want to add a fuckton of words to the list. I really want a "Fanfare/Big Band" word.

((Assuming I can bastardize "RocknRoll" and get away with it))
Raise hands into the air, as though conducting an orchestra. After bouncing each hand four times to the beat, shout
Symphonic Sound Force Shockwave Explode-Around
while continuing to conduct the hallucinatory band.
((Assuming I am the chosen one by the gods of rock))
Wave to the invisible crowds, then pretend to grab a guitar. Shout
Rock n Roll Sound Force Shockwave Explode-Around
while strumming on the air guitar.
