Wait, isn't it support that would help with that? I figured Witches were more about direct damage.

Oh, but Witch has marionette.

The powers I chose from the Witch category include the ability to create illusory doubles of myself (that can still make real attacks) and the ability to suddenly make my hexes more effective. Imagine a monster focusing its attention on my copy, while I hex it again and again from hiding. Then, when my copy is destroyed, I suddenly hit the monster with double hex effects.

It's basically sleight-of-hand.

Yeah, I caught that on the next look around. Yua's basically designed to go really high risk but have really high reward too, although Empower is mostly there because giving herself Calm fit too well.

I asked in the Discord chat, but I should ask here:

Changes are a thing that will happen in this game. If you've read the rulebook you know what those are. How ok are you guys with Changes? As in, to what degree are you alright with your characters changing physically and (rarely) mentally?

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Magical Burst is supposed to be all about the darker side of magical girl stories. As long as these changes don't run afoul of forum guidelines or make the game overly awkward, I say bring it on.

I would appreciate advance warning of any potentially nasty changes to my character, if only so I can mentally prepare. And I do think the policy of allowing players to pick alternate changes if they are uncomfortable with something is a good one.

That's the intended one; for temporary things I'll just roll it because temporary, but I'll pick things out for Permanent ones and give warning/a couple choices to the player. I just want to gauge opinion on that.

i feel like the changes are meant to be sort of sudden and sort of traumatic, iunno. I trust in your ability to give me ones that actually make sense without consulting me.
