Just like half of the shit that is going to get posted

almost no cyoa gets reposted in a few minutes

Does any of the girls use a handblade like this?

I think Yell from Akikan does.

Build: Then I actually did some math. Assuming No Waifu Yet, just how fast can I dispel 1700 curses? Actually, it was surprisingly effective.

>Pure Dispels only
Let's assume that my party members and I want to be done with this death sentence. Assuming cuddling in sleep doesn't count, and we can manage a 12-hour "Work day" of cuddling, holding hands, and kissling, Handhold Dispel will remove 3 curses, Cuddle will remove 6, and Kiss will remove 12, for 21 curses burned. All 1700 curses are gone after about 80 days of this, leaving us 3/4ths of the year to deal with questing or just enjoy the perks on which I was a little stingy.

>But wait, there's more
The actual dispel rate is going to be much faster (Even without "The Bond") thanks to Mouth Master + Oral Dispell. This means that over those 12 hours of kissing, the girl is going to hit climax eventually and when she does it dispels 2 curses. If it takes an entire hour for Mouth Master to work its magic, that's 24 extra curses a day and the entire 1700 Death Sentence gone in a little over a month. If it's half-hour events, the time goes to a little over 3 weeks, and if it only takes 15 minutes to Mouth Master a girl to orgasm, all curses are gone on the 15th day. And I have the Ceaseless spell which would help that along. This is still all without doing anything that requires clothing removal and without the double curse break fro marriage.

>The Party
And we have Tier 3 Intellect, so this basic math for "Call it 90 days, tops" was probably done in the first minute after the rug was pulled and spells chosen with an eye to making us not die. This means we can actually put off "Getting to work" on the dispel, deal with the necromancer in a sane and careful manner, and actually get to know each other. My party members are a mana-tech mechanist, a spearwoman with mana-tech inventor cred, and a researcher mage who at least appreciates some of the advances of science in the form of airships. With Intellect 3 boosting all our abilities to research, spellcast, and invent, a big house, and money for nothing this is going to be an extremely creative period. If love can bloom in in the house a wacky and probably evil love goddess built, that will end up making the dispel process that much swifter in the end, and much less the worry.

In short, we are summarily dismissing as a mere inconvenience the "lewd or die" aspect in favor of a Mana-tech revolutionary adventure. Let's go!

Ant, Bee, and Moth are all good in my book. I think I'll go with Bee.

...

Dispels don’t stack, unfortunately. I take that to mean if you’re cuddling AND kissing, only one of those dispels is active. I’m not sure why cuddling wouldn’t work while you’re asleep. I didn’t include that in my theoretical dispel calendar, but I thought of it as a little bonus.

My approach was having a normal work week, then devoting the weekend to hardcore curse dispelling. That way we can actually be functional all year.

>Dispels don’t stack,
Except the Pure dispels that explicitly state they do

Right you are. Never bothered with Purity outside of Fertility Control, so I missed that. My bad, broski

this one feels unfair, as my nigh unhealthily large consumption and preference towards Coca Cola means id probably have picked up and drank the can before the dudes even halfway done explaining things to me.

>what about the second choice?
i dont see Vanilla Coca Cola on that list, so there is no second choice.

There are two other version of this and I don't know what the differences are and I didn't save them.

>Geysir
That's literally a OHKO move.

Taking all curses I don't think you even need dispel magic as long as you maximize multiple orgasming. Like, just walk around with a vibrator in you and keep refreshing yourself, you could do a hundred orgasms per day or something. If you can't get one then the efficiency goes down a bit but you can still get pretty close just by regular sex interspersed with masturbation.

Question about how save and reload works? Since its pre-cog based does that mean the only things that can kill you are blindspots?

...

...

hypothetically you can screw yourself by saving after you've lost. That's how Skitter/Tattletale beat Coil in the fiction.

nice file name

...

Question regarding Dead Shard and Cauldron Vials, Garden of Eden says you can take Cauldron Vial perks "For yourself" -- does that include applying the effects of the Vial to you at initial creation, or is that never a possibility? (ie, a Vial must always be used on an npc with no powers and can't be part of your makeup)

>sweden
>white

hahahahaha

...

Another day another page

*week

>Page 2
>Page 4
Looks like you missed one.

I don't do this every day

Cauldron Vials can only be given to NPCs with no powers. Garden of Eden allows you to take as many vials as you want.

...

...

Truth in the Ruins seems the most fun to me so i'll take that.

...

Secret World, Kobold Squad and Succ Mom

...

That's true but you can avoid soft locking yourself by taking the second trigger variant and exercising discipline with how often you save. You could have the 24 hour autosave, a save at the start of every week, and a save before you enter combat.

The only thing you'd have to worry about is scion flying by which judging by how other pre-cogs like simurgh, and dinah's power worked you might actually get a bit of warning?

I suspect if you tried to actually use this information to gain advantage over an entity, or end bringer the blind-spot would become a lot more potent

It's been more than one day though.

more than one day includes another day

Your narrators are weird, lesbian fetishist-user. "Breathe, my subs!" is just writing dumb.

>Giant Demon Syndrome
>Hell Lord
>Yandere

I need all the self-defence I can get if I'm going for the Yandere option, so why not be a Giant Demon that can rein her in a bit?

It's a soda can.

Alright chums, I know bupkis about Worm so let's do this.
>Gestation 15/15
Since I know nothing I'm taking this because it's the standard.
>Conspirator
To walk the bloody path to a better world, or at least one that keeps existing, is a sad necessity. Both nothing should be allowed to stop us from saving the world as a whole.
>Insert: Male Teenager, High Schooler
Little WTF to be a Conspirator as an "Ordinary High School Student" isn't it. Well, since I'm an Insert, perhaps Cauldron is the "Family Business"?
>Strategy & Tactics 6/15
And having a big brain is a good reason why I'd actually get anywhere with Cauldron at such an age.
>Dead Shard/Eden/Thinker - 6/18
Seems natural/required for a Conspirator.
>Second Trigger 2/15
I'm gonna want this
>Negentropy -3/10
Pretty awesome, and counters one of the bigger drawbacks of a Dead Shard (failure on overuse).
Whoo boy, now the drawbacks
>Humble Beginnings 2/15
I'm hoping that the "Rich Insider Brat" build will help deal with some of this issue, but the question of when the powers get turned on is a thing, so I'm left with my high school tactician brain as my asset until then.
>Psychic Nosebleed 2/18
>Numbed Emotions 2/20
Using the effects of an overpowered Dead Shard isn't going to be totally pleasant.
>Endbringer Target 5/24
and HOPE TO FUCKING GOD that the implacable monster doesn't come for me before I get my hands on some powers to aid my own survival
>Slaughterhouse 9 9/26
Oh look, WHY AM I DOING THIS? Another thing to hope I can parahuman up before it comes for me.
>Worst Day Ever 11/27
OK, only at level one. Just a real bad freeking day. My life is going to suck for 24 hours but I'm probably not in *lethal* danger at this level... unless it decides that trips Slaughterhouse and an Endbringer immediately.

And it's not done yet... I am so toast, but if I make it...

It's Yell from Akikan.

>Case 53 - 11/28
Only a fairly small, concealable mutation. An annoying side-effect of OP Dead Shard.
>2x Follower - 5/28
I'll design them later. Suffice to say we are apparently a Cauldron-backed Elite Private School Gang
>Nemesis - 8/28
Also to be designed later.
>In which I realize I forgot to buy a costume: Thematic 5/28
Only the best, eh?
>Plot Convenience 4/28
Something to spend a point on.

So how about those powers I've banked a billion points for
>Pocket Room 4/27
Because Hammerspace is really handy
>Second Trigger Temporal Bubble 4/20
TIME STOP! IMO this is a freeking awesome power. 10m^2 is really small, but it could well be enough
>Conspirator Path Power: Temporal Travel 4/0
That's the big one. Since I have a Dead Shard I can take it for myself and boy howdy is that an off the hook ability. Well it should be at 20 points, eh?
>Infinite Credit 2/0
Again, Cauldron Trust Fund Baby
>Door Me 0/0
I NEED OUT! This is probably my best trick to survive all the shit coming for me. That and time rewind.
>Gift of Metaknowledge
And CYOA-me will now know what's coming for the world at large, unlike current me. Since I'm clearly going a 'brains' route, this should be really useful to know where to be when, what to fight, and what to flee.

>Soon-to-be-girl
>Breasts: Normal
Normal is real-life busty and busty is real-life gigantic, this is already funny.
>Butt: Big
>Hips: Feminine
>Height: Short
>Skin: White
>Weight: Skinny
>Fitness: Competent
>Libido: Receptive
>Sensitivity: Responsive

>Cultural: Slav
>Parental: Normal
>Parent's opinion on sexuality: Indifferent
>Money: Wealthy (245)

>Likes
People who care about some hobby and try to improve themselves
>Dislikes
NEET's, leeches in group work, contrarians, anyone believing the thighroid meme
>Hobbies
Lifting, playing cyoas, playing stardew valley
>Fetishes
I'm not dumb enough to write that
>interpersonal conflict
Probably just close off and ignore them, seething in anger and doing nothing
>romance and love
Dead inside, never had a crush or felt attraction
>Melt your heart
Wouldn't know. Probably initiate conversation and try to care about what I say
>How you show love
Wouldn't know, probably sending them links/images or making stuff for them
>Taste
Videogames are mostly time wasters, mindless stuff. Stardew valley, slime rancher, shooters with no/simple and unimportant plot. I like anime that makes me hurt, Chuunibyuu and Charlotte are the best.
>Strong beliefs
Mostly hating leeches of society.
>Ideal vision
Got none, haven't thought that far.

>School: High school
>Student body: Equal-gender
>Prestige: Respectable
>Subject focus: Chemistry
>Clubs: Supernatural study club (235)
Urban fantasy is a great.

There's a lot of options here that honestly should have been removed since they don't matter much. How rich your school is, the subject focus of the school, for instance.
That "author note" is just dumb. You can't stop Tok from being an idiot by adding it, and all you do is break the immersion.

I think the difference is that in one you can roll for hip size and butt size separately and the other they are togheter also I think one had dere personalities that you can roll

>235
Having no restrictions on companions is goofy, too.
>Power source: Spiral power, Edginess
Divine favor is out of the question because of that whole "It'll only work if the God wants to work". I'm not dying because of an unreliable being. That means I have to choose Edginess.
>Body alteration: Epidermal (230)
So that should mean I can make keratin armor?
>Mental alteration: Cloud mind, Charm cognition (215)
Sounds fun and hilariously broken
>Conjuration: Summon armor/weapon, summon clothes (190)
>Time and space: Slow time (175)

Alright so I make 20 lesbian coins per day and I use the lesbian points to buy the rights to use the coins. So I can't afford any of these

>Her: Go it alone
>Wedding: Skip

I don't need any drawbacks even if this looks like the real purpose of the cyoa, given how much you wrote.

>Goal: Hero
Spend the remaining points for any magic that helps me not die/heal and then we'll try to improve the world with violence.

>Extra: RPG world
Your narrators are really weird. I don't know why you feel the need to add these self-inserts and write so much for them.
And again, you adding that dumb note on meta-cyoas not being allowed, specifically singling out Tok, is so goofy and childish. It's like adding that "if you choose not to play you die" or something equally dumb.

you can't take a vial with Humble Beginnings?

probably. There were supposedly limitations on the Coil/Dinah synergy because of this, but they were vague and never explained.

Followers & Nemesis
Going with a "Shared Origin" for the followers, so they'll share a number of traits with my own build

Follower 1
Gestation, Conspirator, Female Teen High Schooler, Thematic costume (12/15), Martial Arts, Stealth, and Banter (4/15), Dead Shard (4/18), Negentropy (-1/13), Slaughterhouse 9 (I guess they're after the whole 'team'? 3/15), Humble Beginnings (8/20), Case 53 (8/21), Second Trigger (4/18), Power Slot (4/17)
Blink (4/10), Second Trigger Peak Condition (4/9), Glimpse (4/2), No Clip (4/0), Infinite Credit (2/0), Door Me (0/0). Clearly going the "Ultra-mobile martial artist" route. Has some of the same problems (No powers to start, slight inhuan traits after empowering) and perks (Negentropy, Second Trigger) as I do, thanks to being part of the same plan.

Follower 2
Gestation, Conspirator, Female Teen High Schooler (I actually coil flipped this to see how the 2:1 team would fall out), Thematic (12/15), First Aid, Parkour, and Investigation (5/15), Dead Shard (5/18), Negentropy (0/13), Slaughterhouse 9 (again, after all of us) (4/15), Second Trigger (0/12), Humble Beginnings (5/17), Power Slot (5/16), Case 53 (5/17) Second Triggered Omnicombustion (5/14), Flight (5/11), Regeneration (5/1), Immunity (5/0), Infinite Credit (3/0), Door Me (1/0), Boogeyman (0/0). The literal firepower.

And now for that Nemesis

Nemesis
Gestation, Vigilante, Male Adult, Teacher (14/15), Budget Costume, Investigation, Survival, Marksmanship, and MArtial Arts (0/15), Natural Trigger/Zion (3/15), Blindspot (0/11), Augmentation (0/8), MacGyver (0/7), Repair (0/5) Radar (0/3), Bullet Hell (0/0), Anti-Villain (3/1), Stealth Suit ()1/1), Tool Belt (0/1) and go back for Noctis Cape (0/0). Looks like one of our professors is an a rogue Cape.

I think it's cause when he asks dinah questions in a throw away timeline his shard is basically doing its own thing and dinahs thing as well.

Cauldron Vial and Humble Beginnings contradict each other.
Humble Beginnings states;
>If you choose Dead Shard you'll have to seek contact with Cauldron and buy them.
While Cauldron Vial does say you begin with a Vial in your possession, the whole point of Humble Beginnings (and the reason for its bonus points) is the added difficulty of obtaining powers. My interpretation is that Humble Beginnings overrides Cauldron Vial. By RAW, however, you would start with no powers, and a cauldron vial that you could drink to gain powers.

They should put a restriction on that

>>Gift of Metaknowledge

>yfw you realize the acts cauldron has done and now you're complicit in them

>Monster girl CYOA
>Immediately transformed into a woman
Why even fucking bother. Goes from God Tier to a poor build your own kingdom kind of deal

Thanks for reminding me of the Empress CYOA and how much you guys whined about it.

>girl
>turned into a girl is bad
Are you retarded? Or are you, poorly, trying to say you want it to be a waifu builder?

I normally have an easy time with Bad Choice/Worse Alternative scenarios (Which seems to be Cauldron's "Thing") but this one is gonna be extra bad for my psyche, I can tell, given that being the reaction. Like, far worse than a million (or billion) being a statistic.

That was really funny.

>What? I get magical powers, immortality, and my own empire I can rule as I see fit where the people love and respect me?
>But I have to be a GIRL! This sucks!

Get back to work ZBG

I wish I could turn people into little girls for real and then laugh at them.

I personally enjoyed it,someone should post it again

the power is yours

Fate/Author CYOA when?

when you shitpost it

Can you fuck off

It’s still a waifu builder if you’re a waifu building a kingdom

When tok becomes competent enough to make the concept well
