Jumpchain CYOA Thread #1605: Cocaine Edition

No. You're just an idiot hiding behind your supposed problems as a shield to hide the fact that you're an idiot

No, that's dumb.

Last second power-ups out of nowhere are stupid.

Nah, that's just cheap and boring. Much more fun to hold back at first and then go all out just when they think they're winning, or at least on equal footing.

I am debating on whether my Jumper should learn Fuinjutsu or not, should they?

>I thought it was done.
It is done, but something something Captain Brutus something something IRC Mafia

It went through several revisions and the jumpmaker considered Home Improvement jump done, but it is in the WIP folder also.

>Have you ever turned off your power until the last minute to make fights more dramatic?
Don't know about turning off all your powers, but downplaying or not advertising your full capabilities is a normal thing. Then someone coming along trying to bully you is in for a reality check if you don't bother to maintain the muggle act.

Yes, it is the bullshit magic. It can store massive amounts of stuff in a scroll for example.

fuinjutsu is basically magical seal programming that lets you seal stuff in other stuff. So yeah, it's totally worth it.

I was hoping the title for this thread would be "Bancho's Waifu Is Shit Edition"

It's also the basis for all the cool items, like the various swords that can do things that make no sense for swords to do and the chakra armor and a variety of other things. Ok, so not all the cool things. Just the majority. Their are a couple of things that aren't seal based, like simple chakra conducting weapons and such.

Don't remind me, user. Please just let me repress that horrid image.
Seriously did the artist hate Bancho or something?

i must commend him for his depth in character, damn him for being in the end a monster, and resist horror at his pretty normal body with pretty normal midget wife.

she is not always a little person. She's a shape shifter

I always wondered if zabuza's bigass cleaver was made with some sort of fuinjutsu trick. I'll definitely have to do some graverobbing to study it.

find a better artist then.

>pretty normal
Did you see the same picture I did, user?
You should remember it, since it was a picture of sheer uncanny valley enough to make you feel dizzy and ill. Or maybe you only saw the thumbnail where most of ti's horror was hidden by being teeny weeny.

>she is not always a little person
Then why commission a picture of her looking like a little person?
Actually, no. I don't want to know.

Then why is she in that shaoe when she could be in a good one?

Would a Don Quixote Servant work better as a Lancer, Rider or Berserker class, because I couldn't find anything legendary about the weapons he used. And I really want to fit in some memetic skills or NPs in to go with the impossible dream theme.

Hardmode: Don Quixote demi servant. Good idea or best idea?

yeah , I really should see using my monthly 2 character color from S.L.B for porn.
because her league of legends Form is a short stack.
because it fits in my lap better than most of hers

That is what I've always assumed. There's nothing else in setting to really explain it's porperties.
Although I wonder if Samehada was made somehow through fuuinjutsu? Given it's similarity to Jugo i wonder if some of his or his families flesh was used as a base along with fuuinjutsu to make it into a weapon, bonded with shark dna at some point?
Something to ponder.

Berserker with Mad Enhancement EX most assuredly, if the current examples of ME EX are all "legitimately insane can't be talked into normalcy."

Hey bancho how was your trip?, Also did you make any progress on your gauntlet

I will admit the hair piece was the major thing that made it look fucked up (besides the fucked proportions), if the entire head area was redone properly, it probably wouldn't have looked entirely awful. still creepy to be in your underwear, but hey atleast its not another eldritch horror.

So is cocaine a good way of coping with this shit? I could use a good coping mechanism right about now.

>because her league of legends Form is a short stack.
I said don't tell me! My beautfiul ignorance is gone now. B-baka!

>because it fits in my lap better than most of hers
>yeah , I really should see using my monthly 2 character color from S.L.B for porn.
Are- are you trying to make me violently ill, bancho?

Yes, please, let's change the subject and never discuss it again. Ever.

>but hey atleast its not another eldritch horror.
Oh, your poor dear Summer child. It is.
Ask bancho if you want, then prepare to be very disgusted. You may want a pail or bucket on hand to catch your sick, just in case you don't have a really strong stomch.

If it works, then use it.
I won't judge user.

just drink user, drink and try to write about some autistic DA knock off.

>DA
...Dragon Age?

Deviant Art

>DA
DA?
Ducks Anonymous?
Drivers Alliance?
Digimon Ally?
What DA?

Oh.

>Yes, please, let's change the subject and never discuss it again. Ever.

I actually and genuinely do want to know how his trip went and if he made any progress on his gauntlet

>Hey bancho how was your trip?

The trip was all right, a lot of hard work lugging boxes and pulling and pushing carts, but it'sover $500 worth of fun for around $250 worth of labor. Also, my roommates insisted on keeping the fan on 24 seven so I was kind of Cold overnight and the air mattress was kind of short for me so I was aching all over but in the mornings I went to the hotel sauna and felt a lot better afterwards So it's worth it, got to meet up with some friends, I'm in a campaign that only runs at con games so my character finally completed phase one of his long-term plan.

>Also did you make any progress on your gauntlet

unfortunately, no but I do plan on working on it further once I get stuff cleaned Around the apartment

>2(DA)
Dragon Age Deviant Art: Not as batshit as Tumblr Dragon Age, but still off the wall and lewd

Good, just don't ask about that ~thing~ he had commissioned. Please.

Was this a good use of my Mass Effect jump?

Here, you're probably going to want this

>Tumblr Dragon Age
I'm going to guess it's 20% lesbians and 80% straight characters being fucked in the ass by communist minotaurs?

No, that's fanon. It's unknown how the various pieces of enhanced gear are made. The story never goes into it. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if seals were involved, the ability to contain and restrain the flow of various forces would be very useful for making items like that. But the only items we have confirmation use seals are things like Sasori's missiles or the kote bracers in Boruto, that are clearly there to contain a projectile so it can be launched later.

It doesnt help when others post his stuff!

There are other things to do, butt you're headed in the right direction

No.

Condescendingly and aggressively pat her head instead. Don't let her get away.

>Good, just don't ask about that ~thing~ he had commissioned. Please.

I'm not asking because I don't care and just want bancho to give me an update,So if you hate it so much stop bringing it up.

I thought so too at first but the tale ends with Don turning back to sanity. It's also notable that while he is insane he isn't stupid but just too caught up in his dreams.

How about an Anti Ideals NP that erodes the values/locks down the magic or NP of his opponents to represent disillusionment? Or a low level pioneer of the stars ability to represent his drive?

Is ryder really a transgender failure of a post op?

Nice trying Tera, but inverted Satan is revealing your disguise

Bancho is one of those people who veer between extremes. Either he's quite good or he's really bad.
I don't want to suffer the latter or be cheated out of the former. Filtering kinda does that.
I'll keep it in reserve though. Just in case. Thanks, user.

Then stop giving me cause and stop talking about it before Bancho decides all this talk warrants re-presenting it.
Also bancho already gave you an update, you dense sod. See From what I heard bioware or whoever fucked up the graphics that control facial expression, so everyone looks like stepford smilers without the smiles.

>inverted Satan
I get called this too often. Should I start being proud of it?
It feels wierd to be praised and called satan at the same time.

>he's quite good
citation needed

So, effectively "enchanted" gear isn't confirmed as being made with the local method of "enchanting". Ok, so the author never outright stated it, but the thing is he never gave any other possibility either while showing only one thing in setting capable of getting the job done.

I want to say he should have Luck EX.

If I'm remembering right, though I'm probably not, a theme of the novels was supposed to be that chivalry is dead, and Quixote even renounces his delusions on his deathbed. However, the story was so popular that it actually caused a resurgence in chivalry novels. So, from a certain point of view, Quixote believed so hard that he managed to defy the author and effect change in the real world. That seems to pretty well fit the "screw destiny" nature of the Luck stat, but it might fit better as a NP.

Again, I'm probably wrong about that happening though.

>he isn't stupid

Two of the examples of ME EX are Spartacus and Penthesilea, so stupidity isn't a part of it. As for the idea of Pioneer of the Stars, I'm not sure that could work given the justification for it is "figure who became a turning point in human history."

I'm not sure how Francis Drake qualifies for it in that instance, but Nikola Tesla and Leonardo DaVinci are the only other ones with it. Are Pursuit of the Unknown or Ephemeral Dream available in the Supplement?

>The trip was all right, a lot of hard work lugging boxes and pulling and pushing carts, but it'sover $500 worth of fun for around $250 worth of labor.

Good for you and glad to hear it man, Hope Teeznecth gives you insight

Hope to see it soon then,

Don't blame me for your actions and I would have saw his reply had you not been overreacting. It's over and done with

I get the feeling samehada might be a little different; all the other ones seem replicable with fuinjutsu but samehada being sentient might have been made out of something already alive; like the guy who made it went and beat up some legendary shark monster that could eat chakra and then used some sort of shenanigans to turn it into a chakra monster on a stick. Sort of like monster hunter smithing except the materials are still alive.

I was planning on Lancer stats. High agility and endurance (he can take quite a beating, average others and poor luck. But his skills flip those bad stats around so long as he's in Don mode and crash his and everyone else's when in Alonso mode.

I just wanted something different to all the Item Creation Ex and knock off Gates of Babylon (seriously just use a teleporter or summoning magic) that also fit in with the meta of Jumpchain. One of the most iconic dreamers seemed perfect.

Point taken. I could see it as a berserker who's really really convinced he's a Lancer, though I still prefer Lancer class.

He has an EX+++++++++ NP that gives him ultimate conceptual authority over killing windmills.

... Can always just put points into ME and have Lancer class, to make it fit.

>I would have saw his reply had you not been overreacting.
Way to not take personal responsibility for not noticing something right in front of you.
What, are you going to say that I mind controlled you over the internet to not see his post, a response to what yourself posted and you should have explicitly been looking out for.
Don't blame me for your failures, you projecting twit.

Maybe. There is still so much in the setting that doesn't make sense or has no apparent origin.
For example: Why are summons a thing in the first place? They couldn't have evolved naturally, right? I suppose there's plenty room in the setting for a giant shark monster to have been found and used as the base for Samehada. Actually, maybe it was a summon, like a boss of the shark summons beforehand? Soemthing to ponder.

>GoB knockoffs
Speaking of which, does Gil's GoB only contain "real" things? It might be interesting if the two of them fight, but he can't use Quixote's NPs because they're actually just his delusions.

That was a NP: giant slaying Lance. Anti unit/anti fortress. Treats fortifications add large enemies. Imagine kiritsugus demolition trick but with one dude running really hard into a wall.

We can take other class abilities to foot different classes? Ok. Should i throw in mental pollution (chivalry)?

Far as I know, yeah, you just don't get a discount. How I got Item Creation as a Saber.

As for Mental Pollution, actually I'd say yeah. Might disrupt a bit of control with the Command Seal, but all in all would be thematic (and also help Quixote deal with enemy Caster mental-bullshit.)

>Don't blame me for your failures, you projecting twit.

Says the user who got triggered over an image

>And I really want to fit in some memetic skills or NPs in to go with the impossible dream theme.
>EX+++++++++ NP that gives him ultimate conceptual authority over killing windmills.
Doesn't he already have a "Impossible Dream" Noble Phantasm?
That would already have "Windmills can be successfully tilted at" and "The world can be made better by tilting at windmills" as part of it's aspects. Hopefully metaphorically and not literally.

The ability to regularly encounter worthy windmills to tilt at could be another aspect of "Impossible Dream," or could be the lesser NP, "Man of La Mancha"

Good for you and glad to hear it man, Hope Teeznecth gives you insight

yeah I'm pretty sure that the 40K Pantheon doesn't exist in this campaign ,the evil plan in question is gathering souls through passive sustainable ungodliness,and not dragging them to hell and torturing them , but rather allowing them to persist on in their present lives as ghosts in the mortal world.
the plan is as follows
1.become king
2.offer amnesty and protection for the evil races that always get run out of fantasy kingdoms and fugitives in exchange for citizenship and labor
3.Create new Gomorrah.
4.leverage liberal Immigration and business policies into labor/monetary and political capital
5.Outcompete/outlive the Societies of the rest of the enchanted Realms Thus spreading your ungodliness

see the big, flashy,quick evil plans send hundreds of Heroes to your doorstep. So I'm playing the long game

>triggered
Oh, you're from Tumblr. That explains so much.
Glad to know I can safely ignore you without hurting a real human's feelings.

i recommend reading "Sticks and Stones By WhenEver Possible". it's got some great fan theory for the use of fuinjutsu. it's also pretty funny.

>I want to see more of bancho's porn.

Are you surprised? Shunning personal responsibility and blaming other people for their own faults, no matter how stupid, is quintessential Tumblr.

I really hope you're wrong. No one should have any need or want to see Bancho's porn. Not even Bancho.

Are we seriously getting people from Tumblr coming here? I heard a ways back someone being called out for it, but I thought it was just shitposting, or a one-off.

No, he didn't show us, because fuinjutsu doesn't just arbitrarily alter reality. It's not rune magic, you can't slap down a string of seals and have it do effects for you. It contains things, and it releases them in controlled ways. That's it. There are lots of things you could do with that, but not everything. Furthermore, your assertion that it's the only way to enchant objects is wrong. We know that some materials just interact with chakra in unusual ways. Chakra-conductive metal, of course, but there's also the trees that chakra paper is made from. And the crystal necklace that interacts with Wood Release, that's not a seal. Probably there are plenty of "magic" items that are made just by taking advantage of interactions between exotic materials. But of course, that's just conjecture. All I know for certain is that we don't know how the majority of enhanced equipment is made, and the idea that it's all seals is an unsubstantiated claim. One that is rather implausible to me, since all the seals we've seen are on the outside of objects. We never see one that isn't immediately visible, even when that would be really useful like the seals on ROOT members' tongues. Even if you assume that the seals penetrate deeper, there appears to be some need for a surface-level anchor. We don't see any seals on the surface of a lot of special gear. We see it on many such items, yes, but there are enough that don't that it's clearly not universal.

Let's hope not, user. We've got enough to deal with without that hot mess dumped on our laps.

I'ma gonna read it!

You make a good point, well put.

Same here. To both.

I Would be happy to share it. But this is a blue board

I browse tumblr for porn, but don't have an account or interact with its users. Does that count as being from tumblr?

Because tumblr has a lot of really good porn.

>you can't slap down a string of seals and have it do effects for you

We see people do exactly that.

For the love of god, don't.

Please don't and thank you for refraining.
Bancho, the user earlier said you are working on a gauntlet and asked your progress.
Could you remind me what gauntlet it is your working on, please? I think it's a kaiju one, Godzilla Destroy all Monsters. Am I right?

>Because tumblr has a lot of really good porn.
I refuse to believe that. 'Tis nothing but a snare for that wicked place!
Get thee behind me, Satan!

>Could you remind me what gauntlet it is your working on, please? I think it's a kaiju one, Godzilla Destroy all Monsters. Am I right?

You are correct sir!

>Because tumblr has a lot of really good porn.
I was about to question this until I remembered that the maker of a game I want also makes porn there.

Effects related to containing things and controlling the things contained. Never anything else.

How about what happened when Tsunade was healing Neji? Fuiinjutsu was clearly being used for that.

The porn's not particularly good or bad but I wish more people would fucking tag it with nsfw so I can filter it, instead I have to block them like a fucking animal

Explosive tags?

Yeah, and? She was manipulating a thing contained inside a fuinjutsu array, that's not contradicting what I'm saying.

They contain a bit of chakra that gets explosively released. Also not something that people can just instantly write out and make explode, we always see them use pre-made ones.

Are there any perks that let you heal people with explosions?

>She was manipulating a thing contained inside a fuinjutsu array,
Hmm, fair enough.

D&D, if your explosions are made out of positive energy. But that would heal everyone in range unless they are undead, or explode them if they are too healthy.
Might be something you can build off of with the right feats.
Other than that, I got nothing.

What jumps have good anti-precognition perks?

Dune has one - Kwitz Haderach (sp?). Very expensive though.

On the topic of shunning responsibility, I've been pushing off starting my new chain for a few months now after six consecutive attempts that I disowned within 3-6 jumps and I'm more or less ready to try again with what I've learned.

There's just one thing that's still being a massive albeit, self-inflicted roadblock is how I'm going to explain how the choices for each jump are made in-story. Whether they're done via hologram, on a sheet of paper, etc. or maybe not at all and let that be a purely meta thing.

Now, any sensible writer would just take the time to reflect and make these decisions for themselvesx, but considering that this has been a holdup for me for multiple weeks, I'm clearly not capable of that. To that end, I'm asking for advice, or at least inspiration. How exactly do you handle making cp purchases in-story, if at all? I'd rather not steal someone else' idea word for world, but regardless, this would be a big help for me.

spanner in the works form worm

Doing teen Titans jump later. Any thing I should try to grab while having teenage super hero fun?

>On the topic of shunning responsibility,
It's okay. I've already forgiven you.
Holding grudges is a waste of time.

>How exactly do you handle making cp purchases in-story, if at all?
Different people have differing approaches, but I think most do one of two ways, either you just instantly get the purchases explanation be damned or there's a narrative surrouding it. Most tend to the former for ease.

Me personally, I've started using the Universal Drawback Supplement, and I have my jumper be born into and grow up as their background. It gives plenty of opportunities to explain CP purchases, but isn't for everyone.
Even then though, some things just don't make sense for them to have come to you anyway then a benevolent diety (jump-chan) just plain giving them to you, and sometimes for things that are sensitive in the setting, you'd rather there be no background or papertrail for someone to follow or stumble over.

You've also got to ask yourself how much investment you really want to put into just the background and smoothing over the oddness of your cp purchases compared to how much you can use for the jump itself.

If it helps, there are perks that allow you to just give hand-wave explanations for where your Outside Context Powers come from that could help you along by minimising how important it is in setting.

Hope this helps. Happy jumping, user.
