There's two mystery boxes coming up next.

Boss perks

Minion perks

>Specialty (Charisma)

Plan is to have lair for dragons, vampires, succubi, and other fun-loving creatures of darkness to hide out. Recruiters will spread rumors about this domain in dark circles, but it's hidden so only people who really want to can find it. So like a not-so-secret secret club. Lair is always changing and visitors are watched closely because we don't need any hero types causing mischief. We'd have more fun playing tricks on invaders and trying to bring them to the dark side than actually hurting anyone, except the occasional blood sacrifice of course.....

??? is objectively the perfect choice

Remember: Don't be as shitty as a planet as Nasuverse Gaia.

Why are you still looking? Why weren't you satisfied with ???

I hope someone posts the one with the galactic wives, the one that's an alien noble with a scar shuffled of to a back water is cute.

If you're reading this, and you know who you are, then surprise!

You're not the only one anymore.

Though honestly yours is still better-designed.

Idk if having my own realm is even all that necessary. I'd probably be happy just being one of the more powerful "boss" types living in another magical-forest-of-the-fey type realm.

Because siren is objectively better.

Maie is objectively the best waifu

Have you SEEN what's in the ocean? I'm not making that my home.

oh no

this could go bad

It says none of the creatures of the sea would mess with you if you become a siren. So none of those scary creatures are a threat.

Plan is to become incredibly powerful sorceress and use a staff that's also a spear to cast spells and fight with quickness and finesse instead of strength and lots of magic of course. Will learn how to summon the Primeval Dragon by listening in on the conversations of adventurers while working as a dancer, which will also help me be quick and graceful. Once the dragon is slain, goal is to quest to find the secret to eternal beauty and youth and become immortal sexy sorceress. My companions might also be interested in this quest and join me.

>tfw not sure where to go between Mnsenmyoine, "Lilly," or Ur'scha

Sure, they aren't a threat, but that doesn't mean I want to ever have to look at them. Besides, with ??? I get to have my own pocket dimension, with immortality and all the kinky sexy times I could imagine. All I have to do is have nice thoughts about her, not exactly a hard task.

...

As long as no one brings up feminism we should be fine.

There's only one issue with the CYOA, and it's not even finished.

What's the issue?

-4str

There's different stats for men and women. This caused a total shitstorm last time which got the creator of the CYOA accused of being a misogynist and a SJW and an entire thread was wasted with this crap.

You ready for fun?

Human women being better than men

But again, it's not even finished.

So for the ones that say I can skip the stat boost and explore another area instead I assume that means it takes the same timeslot? So I could do something like
Burial of kings(skip stat boost)->The Obelisk
Windsong Cliffs(skip stat boost)->Lost Shrine
In a single year?

that's a shame,
I quite like a bit of dimorphism, if done tastefully.

I WANT BATTLEMAGE, MONSTER HUNTER, TITANLANDS, DOMAIN MASTER.

WE NEED TO MAKE /CYOA/ GREAT AGAIN.

It wasn't, it basically amounted to "You can't have a penis between your legs and cast magic well" but lets leave it at that.

I can never post Battlemage because I love all versions too much to pick just one, and why bother posting them all?
Still waiting for Archmage as well; super-wizards being cooler than combat-wizards.

Monster Hunter was already posted alongside Domain Master.
I can post Titanlands.

>I WANT [bad cyoas]
>MAKE /CYOA/ GREAT AGAIN
what did he mean by this?

...

...

It would make sense going by the stats given, since the year long one gives 4 points when the rest give 2 points.

No it didn't. It was women were slightly better than men at magic casting

The "sell your soul to Cthulhu" part worries me.

I think I'd pick Lala. Politicians on Earth appear to being doing really shady and fucked up shit at a fairly rapid pace, though, so humanity might go extinct shortly after we meet.

I'll just cuddle with her when she's not engaged in genocide, I guess.

Yeah, and it was quite bullshit. It heavily favors women as a whole.

I'm sure Lala could be convinced to only kill the worst of humanity, like the norks for example. Although I'm not a fan of her appearance.

Aren't the blind lizards the best for magic whichever gender?

So men are locked out from being as good as they could be at magic because they have penises, same thing user.

Like I said lets leave it at that, this thread is still young and virginal.

>could have been done with my CYOA weeks ago
Make me stop being lazy.

>Non-Waifu CYOA
>Bad CYOA's
whut did he mean bby thIS/
so EBIN :33

Technically no race is superior if you take Mausoleum into account.

>virginal
>starts with a waifu cyoa

Magic isn't even good in the setting. It lets you cast fireballs at best. It's not that impressive.

Still wondering why Mausoleum does what it does, and not the University.

Women being better than men at magic does strike me as a bit odd though, especially for the Drachmanians AKA humans.

It isn't finished though, as above mentioned. Things are bound to change. But you idiots basically deterred Onion from ever working on it again.

Wasn't Onion also delusional in the belief that physical combat somehow equalled magical combat?

Swords have better been a match against sorcery.

>wanted to write a short cyoa
>write a small intro and a few short sections

Autism and CYOAs are two hells of a drug. Oh well, enjoy!

Yeah boi, let's get divine up in this shizzle.

Eo, god of cycles. Her domain encompasses many things, from the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, to the cycle of the seasons as they go by.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't have.be a match.
Magic didn't seem that powerful, and physical abilities were boosted to supernatural levels.

>anything that isn't a waifu cyoa is good
Really? This is where we are now?

This, crafting is the real king, able to rip souls out of things at will once you get Siphon, on top of emulating most magic and able to make anti-magic things. Also Cra+Fin is a much cooler combo than Cast+Str.

Dropping some PDFs in attempt to dissuade the current topic.

Since there doesn't seem to be a Jumpchain thread open right now, I'm posting this here. I cooked up Version 0.1 of a Jumpchain-compatible Tom Clancy's The Division CYOA. Feedback is appreciated!

docs.google.com/document/d/1RjCK0p-w31UcatTvXv8qySDFyIia8fOPoKiFwVn8Pt4/edit

Str is required for 4 Terrors and has pretty boring skills while Cast is required for 6 and has better examples of high level usage in lore and companions.

So Onion hates both men AND magic.

Good to know.

Oh, I remember you user, you actually ended up making it. Haven't read through it all yet but looks nice. We needed more witchy CYOAs.

It's obvious she hates women because she forces them to specialize in weak magic while men get the privilege of being full physical and raping as much as they want.

Onion is a good girl who knows her place.

...

HEY FAGGOTS

HOW ABOUT YOU DISCUSS CYOAS

EVIL CYOAS

You don't even need NICE thoughts, just not hating her.

...

Interesting, I'm not sure if the extra item males get would be on average better or not than what they lose

...

>should be working on CYOA
>shitposting here instead
Fuck.

You know dumping shit no one will read doesn't actually dissuade arguments, and people will probably want to argue more if you say things like that.

Onion making women better than men you say?

No worries. Our friend Jean Paul can fix such nonsense.

Ozoi is cute, yes. But I like science, and there'd be no science to do in her pocket dimension.

The Devourer is the cutest, IMHO, but I just can't go for all the murdering.

Too late. I'm dump-happy. I cannot be stopped.

Hey, I'm not complaining, just saying you're methods might backfire.

>posting cyoas in /cyoag/

Absolute madman you are upsetting the natural shitposting order.

...

Do you think increasing the amount of Culling related content in Monster Hunter would be beneficial?

...

...

Yes, it's already a shitpost so by adding more shit it will become more like itself. Things must be as close to their platonic ideals as possible.

I mean, MHCYOA isn't bad. It's just a popular non-Waifu based CYOA. It doesn't appeal to any niche genre that you see some other, more popular CYOA selling themselves to, but it definitely has a nice, well done aesthetic. The culling is only responded to poorly by individuals that have some irreverent fear of, "But what if I die?" These individuals fail to remember that CYOAs aren't actually competitice and serve more as a writing prompt than anything else. Occasionally builds may be compared as a dick measuring contest, but there's no real associated fear with the Culling.

There's nothing wrong with men having better physical stats and women better magic stats.

...

Is the comfydark guy still working on his CYOA?

Except realistically men don't have better physical stats than women. One is physically stronger the other is physically more dexterous.

Women have two advantages, men only have one. Tah dah.
