[SOLDIER First]

it's essentially mana, though
but i see your point

[TheBiggerFish]

Oh, right, I almost forgot, and in hindsight, I only left this out because it was an absolute pain in the ass to track.

In the original light novels and anime, moves were restricted by something called a 'Special Gauge', like most you'd see in normal fighting games. That way, people wouldn't spam moves normally. I removed it because I felt it was really too much work to put in and I wanted to use less mechanics, but if you would like, I could place it in.

Maybe just make it an abstract stat like HP.

[Nakéen]

Yuki isn't my definitive character, just saying. I still haven't chosen.

[Chevaleresse]

give reverse harem

[IamanElfCollaborator]

*wipes tear from eye*
beautiful
we've descended into shipping wars a month before the game starts
i love you all

[TheBiggerFish]

How even do you reverse harem?

[Chevaleresse]

normal harem is one dude with a bunch of girls
reverse is one girl with a bunch of dudes

see: ouran high school host club

[TheBiggerFish]

Ohh.

But whatever does one call one girl with a bunch of girls or one guy with a bunch of guys then?

[BlitzDungeoneer]

...oh god, we've descended into shipping wars a month before the game starts

fml

[Chevaleresse]

Ohh.

But whatever does one call one girl with a bunch of girls or one guy with a bunch of guys then?

yuri/yaoi harems

[Bluexdog]

So is my sheet in? and is anything in need of tweaking?

[Twinwolf]

-snip-

While I'm not the GM and perhaps it's balanced by having little in the way of defense, I'd think a default 25% chance to dodge that can go up to 50% is a bit OP for level 1 gear.

fellow tank, eh
sb, twin and i will be the Big Guy Buddies

Or Big Guy and Big Girl, since my character is female. Although more oriented to being a tanky attack rather than a damaging tank.

I don't know. If my suggestion is worth anything: Have the gauge be based on Willpower, since that's not doing much right now, and instead of number give it "Charges", with every move using up a number of charges based on power or something. If they regenerate in the show, then have them regenerate by some number per turn. This gives people incentive to save them for when they really need them, but also negates "Too Awesome To Use" syndrome.

And now to go work on backstory stuff.

[TheBiggerFish]

Guys, we don't have ANY numbers on the actual hitting of things.  Or shouldn't...

[Twinwolf]

Akroma's character has an ability that passively gives a 25% chance to dodge, that rises to 50% if they analyze the enemy's attacks, regardless of whether there would otherwise be any accuracy check at all.

EDIT: Oh, and once defenses are analyzed there's a passive 25% chance to do 150% damage. Again at level 1.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

The reason I'm leery about putting in Special Gauges is that it adds another mechanic when I want this game to be mechanic light anyway.
