Mid-game jump in!

Right now we’re at… I dunno, about a tenth of the total plot I’ve planned? Things have barely gotten started.

Spikes of ice jut out of the ground.

Nothing ignores distance, unless the ability is teleportation. So to make ice spikes, you must stomp on the ground. A line of spirit energy quickly extends from your foot, reaches a destination your mind chooses, and expands to create a jutting ice spike. This way, you don’t even have to stand on solid ground to make spikes. You can make them on mud, quicksand, water, or even thin air. In the last case, it would visually appear as though the air itself “cracks” to produce ice spikes.

Also, I know that Demons are cool and all, but we really have too many of them already. Where’s the love for Neutral Spirits and Angels? We don’t even have a single active Neutral Spirit at the moment. I won’t force you to change species if you really don’t want to, but would you mind changing yourself to a Neutral Spirit?

Other than that, everything is fine.

Wow, I thought it was mid game. Oh well. I’ll add that stomping part in. Stomping makes more sense with my character.
I won’t exactly like having to re-do the sign, but if it will help the game advance or such, I am willing to make that change.

The game should still have quite a bit to go once some of the characters reach the max level, level 16. So yeah…

You don’t have to make many changes, really, if you’re to change him from a Demon to a Neutral Spirit. Make your character slightly less savage, with slightly less scars, or something. Or I guess you won’t even have to, since some Neutral Spirits, including the ones at Doomfire Valley (where Ocelot is right now), are just as violent as Demons. If you start off somewhere near there, you won’t really have to change anything.

Then Doomfire Valley here I come! I’ll make edits accordingly. Assuming all I have to change is my black in abilties to gray and change species to Neutral spirit.
Edit:Done.

Accepted. It’s Doomfire Valley, not Hellfire. Read all posts by Proctor (Ocelot) and “???” (JohnSolaris) on the past two pages to see what it’s about.

Gah, I hate typos. I’ll edit and go see.

You can post after you read the first few pages and last couple of pages. As for me, I’m still busy, but I can post tomorrow.

Uh. Please go back and read the abilities section again. And please fill out all sections of the profile. They aren’t optional.

Well, I am still thinking about how to enter. Perhapse watching the worm fight, and a little greet after? I think that’ll do good. My only other idea is insane and in the If my player was god section.

That sounds much more reasonable than me mercilessly beating the hell out of the worm. While the If I was god section of my mind is insane and stupid, I will admit that everything that happens is pretty awsome.

Read the abilities section carefully. It’s not as complicated as Developous’s games, so don’t complain. That format must be followed, or I won’t accept your character.

Well, the worm is level 4 while you’re level 2. Each level difference is approximately twice the difference in power. So yeah…

I can’t wait to see my favorite enemy and the current worms 12 cousin, the level 0 Earth worm!

This is a level 16 spirit. This is another. If you live long enough (there’s no reason you wouldn’t unless you seriously piss me off enough to receive a modkill), you’ll become like that too. Everyone will.

Hello. Also, you’re abilities seem a bit off.

I think the reason is I don’t understand the system. And, this is officially more complex than dev’s because I understood everything but maybe a little tiny bit of his games.

How is this more complicated than Dev’s?

Okay, let me summarize.

For each level you get a point, which you must immediately allocate to either a new ability or a pre-existing ability. Up to 4 points can be allocated in each ability, which determines the ability’s level. Level 1 is a generic ability. Level 2 is the ability turned into a weapon or some other item. Level 3 is the weapon turned into a summoned creature. Level 4 gives you a powered up form related to your ability. Your level is equal to the total levels of all your abilities added up, and also equal to the total number of points you have.

Each ability has a primary (White/Gray/Black; should be self-explanatory) and secondary (Red/Blue/Green; basically the colors in Magic: The Gathering) alignment, which reflects what the ability is.

I have a bunch of rules that your abilities must follow. No ability is absolutely unavoidable. You can’t have absolute immunity against anything. No ability ignores distance or aiming. Your abilities are only as strong as the amount of raw power you have, which increases exponentially with your level. I can nerf your abilities for any reason whatsoever.



Okay, I know I said I’d post something today. But I got into a two-hour pointless argument against BCLEGENDS regarding the plot of the sequel of the sequel of this game, if we ever get that far. I spent the remainder of my time watching videos of the latest Vocaloid live concert that just happened today.1 Then I went to university music club rehearsal. I got back home, had dinner, and it’s 11:30 PM already. Something will be posted tomorrow, I promise.

1 Random irrelevant rambling: I don’t know what they were smoking, but they added an alto sax, a trumpet, and a trombone to Miku’s J-pop/rock songs. In a couple of songs it worked out pretty well, but in this… No. Just no.

I think I should rejoin this game at some point. However, I’ll need a dumb brute this time…

Remember Travis? I think I’ll be taking him as my character this time. Profile coming later. Start at level 2.

[Why does BSEE get all the credit for the argument]

A three-way argument? Why can’t it be four-way?
