Welcome! I'm also impressed with OVA, as it does a lot of things that I like. It's My current go to RPG. I'll try to answer your questions. 1. The Attack ability name is slightly inaccurate. You don't need Attack to make attacks, but it makes your attacks more powerful. Basically, Attack is your mai...

Actually s/he mentioned earlier that they instead use a central pool of dice that the group shares rather than each player has their own collection of dice, which is why I try to avoid the Drama Dice Ruleset in my suggestion. Would probably be hard to enforce the drama dice if anyone can take as ma...

Brownie points is like earning karma, doing good things to add up your luck or good fortune. While probably not what Saber was meaning, maybe take a look at the Drama Dice mechanic, especially the free drama dice. If the situation warrants it, for example, your negative magical girls manage to act l...

You might want to look at the Ability Passion. It's a bit of a funky Ability, but you get to add it's level of dice to all actions when the character's Passion is in play, like hot-blooded justice or power of friendship. Maybe build it as part of a Magical Girl template. You could also use the Weakn...

There is a certain amount of pacing and appropriate escalation planned in revolving around the use of the Monstrous Abilities. It feels a bit of a loss to not use it. Plus, yeah, I'd like more playtesting of the abilities to iron out issues, as Saber said.

Anyway, still need a character from Sniffy.

"God" might have been a poor choice of words. Maybe Epic would be more in line. IIRC, D&D4E had three tiers: Heroic was levels 1 through 10, Paragon was levels 11 through 20, and Epic was levels 21 to 30. That would roughly be equal to Average through Major of what I described, and Sup...

It's a nice tiers list. Maybe a bit too much diverses tiers in my opinion. What would you rather see? I was initially thinking of doing a level 1 through 5 tiers, since that's the levels of OVA abilities, but in the end it being six groups- two low tiers, two player character tiers, and two high ti...

I've been musing over a list of power tiers as sort of a recommendation regarding how powerful characters are, so that GMs have a shorthand on how many Ability points to determine how powerful they want their game to be, or for players to decide how strong they want to be. Ineffective characters hav...

i'm sorry but there's more for offensive and defensive. I don't see why "Quick" should not apply for attacking while "compat expert" shoud not in defense. So it's easy to go up to 20+ dices for offensive and defensive. Example: Kenshin (from the same anime name) perform some acr...

Well, there really is only two Abilities for each combat stat: Attack and Strength for damage, Agile and Combat Expert for hitting, and Quick and Evasive for defense (Barrier, Incorperal Form, and Teleport replaces your normal Defense roll, so it'd be 2+that Ability's level for Defense, not stacked)...

Welcome to the forums. 1) I'm guessing you mean there isn't a limit to how high you can apply Accurate or Effective? I have a soft rule that they cap at +5, but the real limit is the Endurance costs or the various Flaws. If you have a super attack that costs 25 Endurance, a normal character with the...

Going to PM sniffy to see how he is doing. With any luck, I will get us started within the week.

Ern Crowley https://cdn.movieweb.com/img.news/NEbBthlqobZKei_1_4.jpg The Ebonite Order of the Galactic Federation of United Nations is not a popular position, viewed by many as harbingers of doom and bad luck. The reason for this is two-fold, as agents of the Ebonite Order are sent to root out evil...

+15/-14, seems alright to Me. Only thing, Endurance Reserve doesn't add to your Endurance Total, only gives you an extra 20 Endurance stored in your armor. Any other questions you might have?

Oh, well I can only assume that the campaign basically begins when the fecal matter hits the fan. Initially, I thought that there would be at least a few NPC interactions with our PCs before, well, hell breaks loose figuratively and literally. There will be some interaction with NPCs before Hell br...
