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 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.
The CYOA's Patron Module, for choosing just who your mysterious benefactor is. Of course, not all of them have your best interests in mind...
...in fact, most of them probably don't care too much about you at all.
Jordan Bailey
AMGC version 1.14. This is a derivative of the CYOA with combat rules based on Exalted. There's no easy conversion between the two, so keep that in mind.
Additional info, links, modules, and so on can be found on the IRC linkboard: piratepad.net/MGCYOA
Or just drop into IRC for a quick Q&A.

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.
This thread seems kind of empty to me. I think it could use a bit of clutter right now.

Regen and blood magic is always a pretty interesting combo, narratively.
Dylan Rivera
Does your mahou have any powerful friends?
Jonathan Martinez
She's got a cat. Cats are the most powerful of nekomancers. It is known.
Thomas Long
No, she's a murderhobo, like God intended.
Kayden Morgan
Yes.
..."friends" might be stretching it a bit, though.
Samuel Scott
Can you take monster options with Beacon?
Juan Harris
No. You sort of used to be able to with the White Coin but that was kind of retarded.
Wyatt Sanchez
The people who made shitpost the thread every time it's up, and killed the IRC chat. Either someone leaves or more drama blows out so we prefer to keep a low profile.
Shh, it's nice to have a quiet thread. If we have to have a thread at all.
That doesn't fit the Magical Girl theme, it's too edgy.

Dominic Reyes
Okay how do you work this shit? In what order are you supposed to run through the pdfs?
Joseph Edwards
There are two PnP systems: AMG Core and SCS AMG Core uses the IRC at #MGCYOA rizon.net/chat SCS uses the Discord Server at discord.gg/P9FWQ If you want to try SCS, use the OP pdf first, then the Patrons pdf, and finally the 4th, SCS pdf If you want to try AMGC, use the 3rd. blue pdf. It has everything you need. You can start in one system and switch to the other later though, they're somewhat interchangable. My advice to you is to try both places first and get a feel for them, then decide which community you like more.
okay shit let's see if I can get this shit anywhere
Thomas Price
Rolled 2 (1d20)
>Age: 12 Okay, this is okay. I'm okay with this. >Body: Overdeveloped Motherfuck. No matter, I guess I'll just look like some 15 year old or something? >Specialisation: Air Cool. Green's a nice colour. >Weapon: Mystic, Fist >>Air Tear, Punchy L & R Aww. Oh well. >Outfit: Skimpy Hmm. >Power: Barrage >Perks >>Purification Artefact >>Enhanced Transformation >>Familiar >>Fake Parents >>Interdimensional Tourist >Str: 8 >Agi: 10 >Vit: 6 >Mag: 7 >Luck: 6
I guess? Rolling for patron?
Lucas Wright
Okay how does patron thing work? You pick a drawback for each benefit on the rolled/chosen patron?
Ian Miller
Multiple head are cute! Cute!
Dylan Walker
Probably? It's a CYOA; if you think it'll make an interesting story, do it.
Aiden Cox
Ignore the PnP systems; unbalanced poorly-designed trash. Roll on the main PDF to start with. Do Corruption and Patrons optionally. Then throw it out and do something better with your life.
Elijah Johnson
>implying the irc is an alternative to discord irc is dead as a door nail
Sebastian Evans
Careful! we want the fucking idiots to go to what's left of the IRC The Discord is for smart people, like content creators and system devs
I liked the idea of ALL OF THE ARTIFACTS. A character that gets by with gadgets, and not their own powers, sounded like fun. The rest grew out of that.
Since the SCS has expansions explained in greentext, should Core have its' explained in the thread to or leave it in the piratepad? ... Does anyone still use Core?
Alexander Perry
idk everything's a bit of a confusing mess desu
William Perez
Eeeh. I vote no. It's never been a problem before and the link is there. Considering how Ai-n made his expansions blatantly magical realm that's another point in favor of keeping it unlisted from the thread.
Manage a crime syndicate, moon shine, boot leg, fund terrorism, sleep in a dumpster, armed robbery, build highly destructive machines, work out, arson, sink ships, summon foul spirits and conceptualize the advent of an "enlightened" Humanity.

Forgot to add experimenting on people and sending out pirate television broadcasts.

Practice swordplay, run laps, and RECITING ONE-LINERS.
Jeremiah Adams
Holy shit this is back!
Anyway I always felt that this thing was lacking in options for Dark Magical Girls.
Colton Rogers
Isn't this that Not!Abyssal MonG(rel)?
Alexander Torres
Damn, it's hard to believe this homebrew isn't commercial. It BTFO's Magical Burst and Big Eyes.
Jose Barnes
Good news: Corrupted magic will be represented in the spellbook when it finally comes out! Bad news: the spellbook has been delayed a lot cause I was busy and now looking back on what I had managed to make before... eh I'm not really satisfied Good news again: I've made a lot of progress on the new version, so it might be out in just over a week's time. Bad news: if it's not out by then, which it very well might not be, then I won't be able to continue working on it much until the end of next term which will be like, another ten weeks.
Blake Johnson
Oh also this is an AMGC spellbook, not compatible with SCS, though it will include rules for Ice as if it was still its own specialisation in Core.
