Wait, that's a minus? thought it was a dash.

Yes. That was me as well. I was just unaware that demons, too, understood the basic concept of the moeblob.
The purple part is the best bit.
Soooooooooooo... What was the reaction of everybody else on her level when she pulled this out?
I'm imagining her cackling because she made us so that when we discovered magic we'd immediately go out of our way to make our personal brand as conceptual and overpowered as possible.
Like, Gaia is a power-gaming, Epic Level D&D Wizard in the game of life for interstellar bodies and godstm, and we're her self-power-gaming, sorcerous Von Neumann swarm army.
And the other players mocked her for spending so much GP on her incredibly inferior life forms whose only advantage was endurance, and who only rarely even manifested magical abilities, and who needed so much babying in the beginning because they couldn't even walk without things around their feet and needed decades to become self sufficient, and who couldn't even duplicate without dying half the time, but Gaia planned for the long term! Where those prissy elves were messing about with their swords and fairies were relying on magic to do everything, we focused on cumulative effort! Our tools helped our children build more tools! Our knowledge advanced itself! EXPONENTIAL GROWTH, WIELDED BY HEROIC WILLPOWER AND RESOLVE! WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, HUH?!?!? WHO'S LAUGHING NOW?!?!?!?!? ME, THAT'S WHO!!!!!!!! Uhh... *ahem* Right, done now.
Hah, say that again after a visit to three thousand feet above the ground in a light sport aircraft. Puts things in perspective. Really, I think she doesn't much care because she knows how little we're actually doing... Or because maybe she likes playing with plastic, like George Carlin postulated. Either or.
"Hi! I'm the being who created humans! I'm not even actively helping them out, this is just their autonomous capabilities. Goodbye, and have a nice day!"
*walks off, covered in the exploded heads of the people she just talked too*
@crystalwatcher, So... I'm going to try and guess why she's neutral: Is it because she doesn't really care about which side wins, as long as her favorite things survive?
Also, if a country were to just set aside a day to literally do some earth hugging, would her reaction involve more laughing or dawwing?
Edit: or, wait, were you going to make a link on the front post?

So. I THINK I finished Magical Girl Silent Murder's sheet. I just have no idea how to align the text in the slides to the left hand side without mucking up the whole thing. Thoughts? Comments? Criticisms? Suggestions?
Edit:Never mind it's fucking with me now.

The whole "Red ones go faster" thing has been going on for a while:Okay, Char Anazble is the "Red Comet" in the Universal Century Gundam timeline (Original, Z, ZZ, CCA, Unicorn, Victory, Crossbone, ...am I missing any?)
He pilots a red mech that is three times as fast as the standard mech, and the only difference is that it's painted red (okay, the thrusters are probably better, but that's the joke)
Now, in Gundam Unicorn, we have Full Frontal (Actually the dude's name) piloting a red mobile suit that's three times the speed and wearing the same mask as Char did, and he's referred to as "The Second Coming of the Red Comet."
So that's where Charlotte's name, MG name, and those two abilities came from.
- The orks in 40k actually do/did have a rule where a vehicle painted with predominantly red added something like 3" to every move or something.
- The flash (most common incarnation) has a red costume.
- the blood angels tend to get in your face faster in canon thanks to jetpacks out the wazoo and stronger engines
- fucking Blinky in Pac-Man
- Link's bird in skyward sword
have the Tropes link where I got most of these from

Don't post it? I don't like it? It's terrible? Don't post it?
We don't need a dedicated magical girl assassin, we really, really don't. We've got more than enough hentai-logic using Super-bosses out there already (an entire faction of them, even), without even more things gunning for us.

Oh, she's totally useless, probably because my desperate plea shaved a few zeroes off of her stats. Thank goodness.[accordion=bright|800]

Have you tried the BB code thingy? I've seen random spoiler tags just keep replicating until I went in and deleted them all manually.

That's because these are her legit starting stats. As for the damn abilities that don't want to be shown....

If you could expand that to add in the abilities you would be a angel I swear it.
Editing to prevent double/triple posting:
Right. I have fought this damn piece of code for the last hour and half. I worked today. It's 1:30 am. I am going to bed. If anyone can get Silent Murder's info together into a legit character sheet, I will give them my damn soul in return. Thank you and good night.

It was meant to be. I loved all the MG's that people made, but I noticed that they were all support or front-line characters. Nothing rouge based at all.
We haven't seen any rouge style MG's at all really, and I was curious as to how a character as potentially broken as some MG's, with their city breaking-country annihilating power, would be altered to fit a stealth or assassin combat style.
Silent Death was the result.

Should have the abilities.
You over-nerfed her, though.

Huh....My parent's always used to say me not going to church would result in me giving my soul to the devil. I just didn't think they were right. Here have it as your just reward. *Holds out the glowing white orb of soul stuff*
As for me over-nerfing her? This is Silent Murder the first time she's transformed into a MG. I followed the format for a Legendary MG that crystalwatcher linked me Original - Crystalwatcher's Magical Girl Quest! | Page 196 so it should be right.
I wrote Charming Beuaty as a comple joke. If you can find some use for her go for it.
Thanks!

I understand that. Even so, there's some execution errors.
You stripped the fog of two of its three properties, one of them being the most useful property. You also gave it the unstoppable ability for... no apparent reason. You also neglected to give her the Presence Concealment which is literally one of her most basic abilities, and utterly vital to her staying alive.
A more general error, you gave her weapon Judgement as an Ability, while it's an Affinity, and not one that she has either.
Edit: Like, to go into more detail, The Mist has two purposes. The first is as narrative justification for her to be able to deploy the Holy Mother of Dismemberment.
The second is to be a rather effective area denial tool. This is the mist that makes normal people melt over the course of a few turns, has Magi doubled over hacking and coughing as it eats away at their lungs, makes Servants feel like they're moving through tar. It's kinda generally terrifying before counting that it makes sneak attacks easier for sneak attack god.
...and then you made it a glorified smokebomb.

Fair points. I'm about to go to bed so I'll make my replies quick. We can continue discussing this in the morning if you want?
You are referring to the fog's ability to be easily manipulated and distort the sense of direction of anyone inside it I assume? If you believe that they would be part of her level one ability then I will agree with you. I just didn't want to overpower it since this is Silent Murder's first transformation.
I gave it the unstoppable ability as I want it to be that. No matter the walls you hide behind, the shields you protect yourself with, or defenses you prepare, the fog will pass through them all without fail. That's where I was trying to go with it, but I guess the idea didn't transition well.
I would have given her Presence Concealment, but the limit was two abilities, and to be honest Presence Concealment of Jack's level would be insanely high leveled. Sure she could start with a E or F version of Presence Concealment, but I ran into the ability limit again.
As for the weapons? That was a honest mistake. My bad.

...I honestly forgot about that. I was talking about the DoT and massive speed debuff it applies.
I think that would be something like omnipresent.
Well, in this case, I think it would be best to treat it as more of a guideline than a hard rule.
See, Jackie has three skills that are really... inherent. You can't have Jackie be Jackie without.
Presence Concealment, she's sneaky AF.
Murder of the Mist Night, she's really good at sneak attacks at night. compensates for the hole in PC where it drops if she prepares an attack.
And Info Erasure, no one knows shit about Jackie-chan.
A lower level of PC because she's brand new, yeah, sure, but leaving it off entirely just seems... wrong.

Fair points. In the morning I will make a new sheet for Jackie. Any other ideas or critisims you could offer? Also. How do you get that nice left/right side aligment without distorting the rest of that shelf?

Essentially, you just do everything in the default left enlightenment, then go back to highlight the pic and name and shift them to center.
As for criticisms... well, I've said what I needed to about abilities and spells, and the raw stats look appropriate for freshly-minted Jackie.
Maria the Ripper, I might up the attacks per turn to four, to match the number of knives and get across how crazy fast Jackie is.
Abilities... Well, murder is it's affinity, so I'd suggest something like Maim or Vital Seeking.

That makes sense.
Er, the QM appreciates them.
Well, for expies, I think about what they're associated with and what would make them interesting mechanically. For OCs, I think about a thee and how it could be applied in interesting ways.
There's been pages and pages of them. A few were fine, but it was flood of them, and the associated discussion. Is it wrong to want a break from them for a bit?
Yes, yes it is.
Also, holy shit! All my characters except Pink Blossom are going to be canon. Huzzah! ...Including Blue Dragon and Solar Radiance. *Evil Smile* ... *Sigh* And I can't stop wanting to make crude jokes on BD and MGBD.
