Also, I'm going to modify Fredericka to be a bit more damaging since, lets face it, she doesn't do that much damage.

@Rolep, Nah, I ain't that bad lol. There is a time and a place for powerful ass attacks and plots with a chance to one hit kill the big bad is not one of them. using said attack on a mook? Most certianly if it's fun to do. The boss? No, That just wouldn't be fair :3

For example, Sen's Bloom ability has a chance to one hit kill, if she succeeds in stabbing the opponent. When did I last use it? Right before Amazeroth died for good, and only when his health was really really low. Time and place.

It's not that, Sanure; if you'll remember, I am an outspoken enemy of that vile thing you people call 'balance'.

It's the precedent it sets, and the fact that it happened at all, and what that means for the people playing this game.

Also, using it on a mook is boring, as is using on a boss. You got to use it on a mid-level guy, or use it for a specific purpose(the Worf Effect, No Sell, Curbstomp Battle to demonstrate just how powerful it is and why the X should be scared, etc.)

I plan on at some point killing a character offhand to demonstrate the lethality of a final boss-esque character. Just to start. After that, it's no holds barred "I hope you fuckers are more creative than me because otherwise you're fucked" death battle time.

Obviously Kyle and Sen must be paired! :P

Oh god I just saw this. IF your Okay with implied incest then be my guest to try and pursue her kj :P ((A.k.a She considers Kyle a younger brother XD))

@Rolep, Oh lol. yeah, Trying to balance everything is bullshit and impossible otherwise you get Dime-a-dozen characters, like we currently have :/ Anyways, yeah, My puzzle boss for my plot is the, figure out his weakness sooner than later or you may start losing chunks of life and possible living state.

Younger brother on older sister incest is best incest!  :P

And RPG, please don't. That's not satisfying in the slightest and will just piss everyone off.

Also, except for the maps, My plot and shit is all stated out and encounters are done. I'll be sending it to smurf when I get the maps done. CC3 is not user friendly...

Never said it either a. Wouldn't be one of my characters or b. would be an important character(honestly what does Isaac even do to interact with people, at this point?)

Nothing because he's hardly had anytime to interact with anyone. It doesn't matter if they're important to you, changing the game that drastically and killing off characters so casually in the process is going to anger people. If you want to do that, run your own game.

We'll see, kj. It's not like it'll be anywhere near in the future anyway, and I might change my mind in the intervening time. It's just an idea, for someday.

Besides, if all the PCs are effectively immortal, combat/bosses lose their dramatic impact.

If combat is pretty much a death sentence then death isn't a big impact.

I refuse to have my characters killed off-handedly just to show "look, this dude is super serious"

equal opportunities.

Isaac will prove to be a very important character. Besides, he interacts with a lot of people in the group. Probably one of the most original characters besides Ashley (obviously there are more).

Though, I guess with your situation with being gone a lot doesn't exactly help with seeing.

I never did The Shadow Realm lore... And revisiting Tobias for this wedding makes me want to establish it... But finals week... I don't have time to write lore...

So, final thoughts on that little miniplot.

I honestly kind of wished I had the time to make the battle better and I wish I didn't have to run the battle since I find my ability to do so is subpar.
