Various worlds and multiverses have become connected together via the mysterious Overcity, a sprawling landscape inhabited by monsters and magical beings. Girls and boys endowed with their new supernatural powers can work together solving conflicts that arise!
>This is NOT a greentext adventure style CYOA with one GM and thread posting to dictate the adventure, but rather a hub thread for multiple storycrafters to use.
This thread houses three systems: First, QuasarBlack's CYOA PDFs which may be used as writing prompts. Second, AMGC which expands on the CYOA character creation and provides rules for combat. Finally, the SCS is an alternative to AMGC with a similar purpose. IRC uses mostly AMGC and Discord uses mostly SCS.
IRC on Rizon: OOC Chat: #MGCYOA In Character RP Pub: #TheWand&Circlet IC Campaigns: #MGChronicle or #MGPnP IC Shenanigans: #Overcity IC Cafe: #MGCafe rizon.net/chat Linkboard: mgcyoa.sync.in/MGCYOA
The CYOA's Patron Module, which determines just who bestows your character's magical abilities. But be wary, for not all of these patrons are after your best interests...
Ryder Hill
This PDF is for AMGC 1.15.1, one of the two usable PNP systems for playing as a magical girl. It features 10 additional powers and 20 extra perks, as well as combat actions, point buy, and more. Note that this is NOT the same as the CYOA, and uses its own methods of character generation.
>Spec Trees (spells for all 19 normal Specializations, and all recorded Oddball trees. Updated often): mgcyoa.sync.in/Spells >Magic overhaul by Drakon in progress. Teaser located here: pastebin.com/jCStZAqq
The SCS was made as an addon to the CYOA to cover the combat side of roleplaying. It allows players to easily take characters made in the CYOA v1.5 and use them in Quests and long-running campaigns alike. Note that this system DOES require you to have a character made in the CYOA in the OP first.
This PDF covers the core rules of gameplay, as well as the methods of improvement and various spells and items magical girls use.
>Expansions to the SCS can be found in this link pastebin.com/kVJmwcj3 These expansions include >Order & Chaos; Friend & Foe (OC&FF): Details on the mechanical workings of Patrons, Dark Magical Girls, Monster Girls (both natural and corrupted), and also includes a bestiary >Worlds & Wishes (W&W): Details various GM tools and a few player tools, including the function of Mundane weapons, Alternate/Optional Rules, Various tips and tricks for GMing and Roleplaying, as well as Augments for players looking for a little extra power after CharGen. It also includes the conversion process for AMGC characters into the SCS.
>being a mahou >not playing only monster girls ISHYGDDT
Dominic Richardson
My mahou grew up in a relatively wealthy family in a small town in Germany. She was pretty naive when she first arrived in the Overcity but being there has done a lot to teach her that not everyone is as kind and trustworthy as the people of Weißwasser. Still, as anyone from the IRC will tell you, she still has a lot to learn if she's ever going to survive living in the Overcity.
I gave it a go
James Watson
why did you fags revive this
in some city streets, where she learned the value of running away
Luis Diaz
We've always been around. We just sorta stopped making threads cause no-one could be bothered to make a new one
Andrew Bailey
Who's hosting it?
Nathan Miller
Discord is maybe running a spooky carnival thing. You'd have to ask PJ since they're the one who mentioned it.
Adrian Cox
>tfw you see AMGCYOA and want to see what has been posted but its thread is already dying. I told you kids Magic wasn't good for you.
Isaac Reyes
Do you have any stories or literally anything else to share, user?
Anthony Howard
>literally anything else to share I never got that Sayaka I said I would.
>Do you have any stories No one wants to see my shitty Literally Mobile Suit Gundam: Stardust Memory, But Its Magical Record Lyrical Nanoha 0083 And Neue Belka Replaces The Delaz Fleet fanfiction.
Thomas Hall
I find it somewhat hilarious that the people that have garnered in the chats over the years, for the most part, have never even touched the mahou shoujo genre in their entire lives or have browsed Veeky Forums.
It feels more like they came from freeform rp garbage places.
Anthony Baker
>they came from freeform rp garbage places. There's your problem. If I remember correctly someone said (while I still went in the Rizon) don't even know we have have these threads, and are just invited by other people. Also a lot of people have only seen Meguca, which probably still ends up showing regularly. Oh shit, I just remembered I was here when the Discord was made.Did Torque and Tangent ever make up? Did Torque even come back?
Blake Allen
*people don't even
Dominic Reyes
I mean, I was literally invited to Rizon by an other user. I don't watch anime (in face I have an active axe to grind with most weebs) and I don't like playing underage characters
Xavier Perry
The party is in the Wand and Circlet. Its not being hosted by anyone specifically, though there might be some people who contributed to decorations and such.
Discord so far has two planned sessions: One for Halloween and another for Day of the Dead. Talk to PJ for the former and Jeanne for the latter.
Sebastian Morgan
Man, it's been a while since I was in this general.
Last I was here, #MGCafe had just closed down and the updates were just starting to come out. What's happened since then?
Oliver Carter
AMGC got a new update
Zachary Adams
go away tawa even i know when to stop lurking
Zachary Allen
Oh wow this place is back. Viva le magical girl community threads.
Mine grew up in an 80s southern Burgerland town based on the movie Heathers and similar slice of school movies, and then, later, on the modern internet via magically enhanced time traveling internet connection. Of course they're now growing up in the Overcity. They've completely overhauled their identity in that way only teens who just discovered a new culture... and upon their newfound internet access and magical superpower makeover, but they're still developing their identity and their self image is fragile.
Don't call them garbage places. It is need how we have a mix of 4channers, mahou's fans, and oldschool rpers and how they all bring their own styles and mix.
Hmmmmmm I wish I could DM in ways that made classic mahou plots and/or school life drama more accessible to our player base so they didn't need to do all the tone setting work themselves.
Carson Brown
Mine had a really normal life and was a total fucking nerd before being mahou'd so they don't know how to do a lot of things.
Juan Hall
nah it's always been here, but i'm like 1000% sure that they already have enough faggots in either of their circlejerks
Angel Johnson
Yeah, but you don't atleast to keep the thread up for a day before letting it die. Unless you do..
They're a sheep shaped robutt. They didn't have a childhood.

this community is so ded
Andrew Baker
Growing up in Texas has left an indelible imprint on my mahou. She can ride a horse, use a lasso, start a fire and the messier parts of ranching life has taught her not to shy away from getting her hands dirty.
Joseph Nguyen
>have never even touched the mahou shoujo genre in their entire lives They could always try, pdf related.
Alexander Jackson
That was a neat pdf. I'll admit my own mahou strayed from the norm though, but I only intended to be a side character anyway so I don't think it'll be that big of a deal.
Isaac Price
>This entire well done paper on magical girls >Ends with "who cares about western crap lol" I feel like a bunch of people here got their start in Winx, and there's also legitimately good stuff like Ladybug out now that's Western made.
Sebastian Torres
That looks interesting, thanks
William Phillips
does your mahou bulli or be bullied
Ryder Parker
Both. It's important to maintain a balance.
The real question is whether they bulli their Patron, or if their Patron bullies them.
Connor Nelson
mine is definitely bullied by their patron.
Isaiah Rogers
>not working with your patron to bully others
Isaiah Mitchell
Being bullied by your Patron is pretty common. Bullying the Patron is fun and exciting! If dangerous. Don't want to lose your powers while trying to impress a boy.
Cooper Walker
objectively true, both communities don't do much
Ryan Bell
I'm running a short little campaign but there's only a handful of players in it. I'd love for some fresh blood to join up. I really like this place so it'd be a shame if it died. Let me tell you, its leagues better than the last place I frequented. Combat RP without dice is a literal nightmare. Never again.
Julian James
What system are you running and what are your character restrictions? I'd be interested in playing.
