The names of the characters in the character thread are a link to the sheet on mythweavers.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Ahh! Thanks! I hadn't noticed that!<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Certainly an interesting idea. I am not opposed to something like that. Probably limit their agreement would be limited to 'directly' interfering, but w/e. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>When I say 'Champions' I'm referring to the graduates that actually get accepted into their personal service, the staff and students of other schools and even those people who graduated but didn't make the cut into the Eldest's service would all be fair game as opponents... or allies.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I kind of like the idea of the mage seed sometimes being a bad thing. Like, if you're a huge jerkass, maybe it makes you into a monster that's even more of a jerkass. Garok would probably need to be a little less extreme. So far as I know we aren't throwing anatomy <em>completely</em> out the window. We're slutty fairies or whatever, but we still ostensibly have internal organs. I adore some of Sparrow's work, but his crazier extreme insertion or cum inflation pics can be a bit over the top sometimes :)</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>The pictures were more a proof of concept then anything else. More a "Look, this is a savage monster brutally raping people! Classic quest fodder!" I fully expected that we'd modify them to fit the setting/theme of the game.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I like that in general, but that seems a little <em>too</em> harsh for just regular animosity. Something like that would be legitimately evil. I mean, even if the school faculty hates us, I feel like it would be out of character for them to knowingly send us to be horribly killed or violated, even for a school that teaches combat and magic and whatever. I just don't get that vibe from it. <span class="bbc_u">However</span>, thats not to say I don't like that idea in general. It might just need to be the machinations of someone in the faculty who is legitimately evil, and is actually trying to get Gabriel killed as part of stopping the eldest from returning or whatever. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>As someone who fought off a gang of bullies in high school and had one come back the next day and try to stave my head in with a<em>brick</em>... I can confirm that people<em>will</em>actively try to kill or maim you out of petty spite or bile and that thwarted bullies are the worst of this bunch. So they might very well<em>regret</em>getting us sent to these horrible fates, but not until<em>after</em>we've left. I should also state that I saw these<em>particular</em>encounters as mid to late game content that we'd start encountering once we've started making a name for ourselves despite our origins.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Having the characters gain more permanent bonuses over time could be interesting. Perhaps just slowly translating some of the temporary bonuses into permanent ones. Maybe. I think being kind of sucky and having to figure out how to get Gabriel to put a load in us in a desperate situation is kind of part of the fun. :)</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Since this would be a gradual thing and out encounters outside the school would be getting gradually harder as well I don't think we'd loose that ascetic. Rather we'd start catching up with<em>reoccurring</em>enemies... like our schoolmates and the students of the rival academies.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Meeeeeby. I don't know if I would want Bunni to change much. Though maybe... I am certainly not opposed to this on a fundamental level. :)</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Just throwing the idea out there. Not like anyone<em>has</em>to change. :P<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I certainly don't have a problem with that. Heck, I would be fine with saying that those are common alchemical products that can be produced with a proficiency in Artisan Tools(Alchemy). If you want, I can even fish out my copy of the old 3.5 Book of Erotic Fantasy and see if there are any fun spells worth porting to 5E. :P</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>I've got a pdf copy of the BEF myself. I just wanted to get a consensus on it before I started breaking things out.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=246485.msg12205567#msg12205567">Quote from: Sain on 02-04-2016, 10:18:13</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Maybe within the school staff there is someone evil enough. Some huge lore nerd with glasses the size of their head who would be knowledgeable about all the relevant lore. Perhaps a villain who saw the trap boys go eat Mage Seed, when it had all along been his/her conspiracy-esque plan to get the Turtle to walk over to the mage seed tree in the first place. The villain then watched all fruits being gorged down by bunch of losers, unable to go stop them because maybe the villain is really tiny and weak themselves, but good at plotting? He then tries to arrange situations where he could extract the mage seeds out of the boys and sends the whole squad after those dangerous enemies, but the plans are thwarted by Gabriel's spunk working as a remedy to all of it.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>This certainly sounds promising as a Starter Villain! Perhaps once 'defeated' it's revealed that he's the nerd whose forced to do homework for one of the more popular cool kids and he doesn't appreciate us interfering with his alchemy homework? That's nice anime style plot right?<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I agree the inflation is a bit comedic, but the idea of that minotaur could still work nicely. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Again, more of the<em>type</em>or<em>style</em>of monster then for direct addition.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I obviously don't mind transformation. We could use stat upgrades and trait bonuses (darkvision and such) as bonuses to gain with or without physical alterations and still keep Gabriel's seed as a potent boon it is. In the end power like that is very easy to balance in encounter design. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Basically what I was thinking.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">For the magics we could also just let every spell be applied creatively to smut as you see fit. You could probably use heal spells to aid pregnancy, control water to tease your friends and so on.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>This<em>is</em>true but having an aphrodisiac spell or something that let you absorb the cum/egg/seeds you've been pumped full of as food would definitely come in handy and aren't exactly easily convertible. For that matter do we want to add some kind of 'willpower' points, based off the higher of your Int, Wis, or Cha in the same way HP is based on Con, that get damaged by sexual attacks? Some alternative to "Make a will save. You failed? You're overcome with desire for the monster you've been stabbing this whole time. Strip down and present yourself for mounting."<br/><br/>Another alternative would be to have equivalents the the fear effects (shaken, frightened, panicked) but with lust/desire? (allured, lusty, enthralled/desperate/craving ?)<br/><br/>Thoughts?
