[Dead] Brockton Gaming [Worm/The Gamer (SV)]

[Kerashana]

Ok, SV. Let us do something a little different. So, this is going to be a story. But, with a twist. I will be asking you do do various… things. The first will be to vote on the following categories. I plan on diving directly in, so I'll give you guys an hour to come to a decision.

Rules: (more of guidelines)
-- I have a finicky Muse, easily distracted or de-motivated. That said, banter and thread activity helps keep both myself and it interested and motivated.
-- Don't make the mods come to this thread
--Votes will be tallied base on plans. Vote for the plan you like most.

A message for SV: Votes for this will be separate from plans.


You have been granted some powers by the mostly benevolent being of SV. Here is a short word from it.

Might want to move this to the Quest forum, as it seems like you'll be going that route.

Unsure, it's more of a normal story but with the twist that I will give the readers chances to do things, the biggest one is this, the start. If a MOD still wants me to move it / moves it. I can work with that. Just am unsure how semi-interactive stories are handled.

Hello Taylor. Your story has only just begun. The powers within you will be your guide, but time... and more... will be your foe. Not all villains are evil, and not all heroes are good... But always beware the snake.
(cant figure out anything else to say. current count-40 words. someone else finish)



** From what hes saying, its more like a normal story with somewhat-more-common-than-usual polls.**

Semi-interactive generally means Quest.

Then how does one move a thread? is it just poke a mod or what? 'Cause, I have no idea... besides, I've done stories similar to this before and the Mods never said anything. So, unless that changes I'm not going to sweat it.

Neridity, I'll have to say no on the Tragic thing. But only because I haven't actually givin though to how that would play out before, and don't feel comfortable with attempting it at this time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To everyone else, please pay attention to the fact that I will be taking votes as plans with the Message a separate vote. Please make my life easier and come to a decision before the deadline. I'm not saying you have to pick someones plan without saying anything, but it would be nice if I didn't have to put things on hold looking for a tie breaker.

Talk among yourselves, come up with something.

It really depends on the Mod, but, generally speaking, an occasional vote every couple of chapters falls into a grey area, but is usually is ok. If you're voting after every chapter then it is a quest.

If you do want it moved though, the easiest way is to just report your own post and type a request to move in the 'reason for report' box.

Thanks, and nah. My plan is to give vote on things at specific events. Easiest example would be if Tay defeats Lung. Then she might get something the readers vote to decide and a second message. But, well. That's just an example, don't hold your breath people.

 

[Tiresias]

Quests imply reader agency when it comes to character choices. If the readers are just providing occasional prompts, it's not really a Quest.

Can there be a hybrid of eldar and kitsune or would it not work because of the eldars anti-mutation dna?

Maybe some other time. But not this story. I would have to go from a completely different angle to fluff that. Probably something about a Tinker Danny and Annette and super babies or some such. Yay genetic manipulation? But again, not this story, and probably not ever. Would bve easier for a normal D&D/LoTR Elf Kitsune hybrid.

That said, you would gain nothing from it. Kitusune live from 500 to 1000+ year (Depending on how able they are at gaining tails), they already have all the physical traits of an elf sans ears (Fox ears instead... unless you know, under illusion), are adept at magic, are dexterous. Yada, Yada.

I would even go as far as to say they are better that most elf races because of the tails, each of which represent a life stage/power magnitude. Three tails represent Life stages, and if they gain the third of these before gaining enough power they won't gain anymore tails and will age and die... eventually. Other tails represent powers. Immortality, Divinity, Demonic power, Great Wisdom... and so on. Only a Kitsune would really be able to tell the differences though, as they all look the same. But, I bet all earlobes look the same to a race that doesn't have them.

EDIT: *Looks up* ...Right, /Rant OFF. Sorry 'bout that.

Don't know any of those game mechanics, so pass on voting for them.

Tech Priest was a tempting option, but Kitsune barely won. And having an Omni-tool is just too useful to pass up for anything else.

Nah its fine i thoght ot was pretty informational about the kitsunes.

[Lizbeth]

Plan: Hunted Vixen
(I suck at naming things...)

Game Mechanics:
[X] Far Cry 4
Don't know much about the game, but it sounds like "instant weapon/combat mastery" to me. Will be useful for the numerous cape fights we'll find ourselves in...

Race:
[X] 4 Tailed Kitsune
(Will we gain more tails? And what does it means, strength/durability wise?)

Gift:
[X] Dagger of Time
Messing with time! Sooo worth it
Maybe when we pause a fight, it'll be mistaken as a teleportation ability. Watch out Oni Lee!

Complications:
[X] (1) Stalked (Shadow Stalker is out for blood)
[X] (2) Targeted (The s9 are going to be on there way, just as soon as the debut is over)
[X] (1) Cracked (canon is handled looser than normal, characteristics remain the same)
[X] (1) Tragic (Both parents are dead…)
With an altered appearance, it's a given that Sophia will hunt Taylor, especially if she's present when Taylor triggers (different trigger in this story?). So, it means that Canon will be altered from the start... And for the S9, maybe we aren't the reason they came to BB as quickly but they found out about us so we got their interest (hello, strange half-fox girl, our sweet Bonesaw is intrigued by your unusual biology. We also learned that you are an orphan now, wanna join our family?)
Remember, now we apparently can juggle with time (once triggered) so we could probably redo S9/Stalker encounters. But maybe it isn't possible to go back to before the Trigger, or when Danny died.
Total: 5 points

Boon:
[X] (0) Message (Locked in)
[X] (2) Danger Sense (What it says on the tin)
[X] (3) Magic (see Dresden Files, mostly)

We'll be a fighter magical half animal cape, with a time messing tool. What to ask more?

If this plan gets no vote, I guess I'll vote for Tiresias's Plan Incoherence.

Well, you are evil and mean to poor Taylor. To explain, Eldar have emotional extremes. That's all, no medial middle ground. The Witchblade is... a very emotional weapon.

Just sayin.

Hmm, seeing this I guess I'll swap the game mechanics from Far Cry 4 to Sword Art Online in my "plan". Do I have to edit my post? I'm not used to voting ^^'
