Lets see if I am tired enough to mess everything up

Action limit

At the moment, the action limit is calculated as roundup(# of players / 8 ), which equals 1 for 1-7 players, 2 for 8-15 players, and 3 for 16-23 players. This will likely be refined in the future. There are separate action limits for free actions and for Essence actions. Performing actions beyond the action limit will result in possible random failure/backfiring. Reaction-actions directed at the PC responsible in a relevant way do not count to the action limit. Secret actions count to the action limit as normal.

Bypassing the action limit's limiting effects is allowed with an added 2E for free actions or an added 50%-cost for Essence actions.

That seems rather...counter intuitive to its purpose. More players means more work, so that system means that a low amount of players has a very low amount of work, while a high amount of players has a high amount of work with a penalty that isn't going to be reached very often.

I feel obligated to attempt to kill this God, simply to have you do something other than "Make XXE Fishfeeders!"

Inyway, TIRED IDEAS GOOOO

Magic System: Chantry

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Chantry is a way to cast magic, rather than a school. It requires intense focus and concentration, which can be broken by an enemy if they act fast. Chantry takes the energy from the user, activating by chants as the name implies. Depending on the power and complication of the spell, the chant can be something simple (such as a Divine user repeating the name of his God over and over) or complicated and difficult to pronounce (the same user chanting a complicated prayer with very precise wording). The chants need not be verbal, a species that communicates with lights could flash the required chants. They are not required to be chanted out loud, but they are weaker and more energy inefficient if done only in the user's mind, in addition to being easier to mess up and become distracted from.

Race: Seconds

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Seconds are, at least at the start, spirits that inhabit the corpses of other races. They take over the body, making it theirs, giving them the same strength, powers, and intelligence as the fallen enemy, though their memories are typically brand new. They are small spirits, typically only "taking up" a single body part, such as a brain, heart, liver, stomach, etc. They can control the entire body from that location, but damage to their specific body-part is almost always fatal, as it disrupts the hold they have on the body releasing it from their control. Damage to body-parts they don't inhabit are typically easier to ignore, the Seconds don't feel pain from places they don't inhabit, making the only downside of damage the loss of function. Once inside a body, the spirit is effectively a normal mortal, aside from its above powers. If it is killed, its soul passes on like a normal mortal's would. Despite their undead appearance they abhor necromancy and true undead, as they use up valuable resources that could house more Seconds.

Crunch: Need Corpses to reproduce, Power: Takes over other race's corpses, giving them the same powers and abilities as they had while living with increased Toughness (in most cases).

The IC thread link is broken for meh

[hector13]

There isn't one, presumably. It's a C+P job from the previous game's OOC OP, with additions for this one.

You haven't seen me try.

I guess I need a bit more, just to flesh things out a tiny, tiny bit.

You haven't seen me try.

And seeing as how, so far, zero active gods have died inexplicably, if you have tried you have not succeeded.

...That is what makes me more experienced than you? A big whale eating a black hole will be harder on the whale than on the God .

@Stirk:Amazingly enough, I don't like killing.

Excuses and reasons don't mean anything. At the start, Muda is better equipped to kill Mr. Gill than the other way around :-p.

    Action limit: It certainly is, but the naïve number of interactions per player goes up linearly with the number of players. The reverse would likely end up too restrictive, but we'll see after a week or two.
    Chantry and Seconds: Price check?

Happy Demon: Flammen: Elite+, could probably use more advantages if Divine
