Frequently Asked Questions
By Kermie
Actually, y'know what? my new chapter's almost finished, so I may as well do this.
Hello! If you're reading this and new to Project Prometheus, you've probably just binged through all of the threadmarks. These top 10 (+1) questions are a quick overview of what you'll (probably) need to know before discussing with us long time readers about the current vote.
Q: Can we only use a DNA sample in Ambrosia once?
A: No! Unlike shield generators and goldnine, each DNA sample is not a one-and-done resource. It's closer to a lego brick, which you can use over and over again in different combos/builds.
The only thing that we cannot do is reuse
specific plans. So we can't reuse the Novalight+Crimson Soprano+some other dudes combo that got us Black Swan, but we can use an Automne+Crimson Soprano combo.
Q: What does Horizon look like?
A: Something like this!
Q: How do Omake/fanwork rewards work?
A: Check here.
Q: Ok, how can I apply +1s?
A: After each rolling session, which Bitterman does after the vote closes, he lets them come in after the fact. If it's a blind roll, usually he'll say if it would make a difference.
As for applying +1s, just comment that you want to when Bitterman raises the opportunity. Only a cumulative bonus of +5 can be given to any one roll. +1s cannot be given to side effect rolls.
Q: What happens if Lady Leizi dies?
A: Then one of our other characters will be the leader of Justice Unlimited and main POV character, we're all gonna cry, and we'll get a new DNA sample.
Q: The worldbuilding is too confusing!
A: I've got a
regularly updating info list!
Q: How the heck do the New Dawn summons work?
A: During the planning phase at the start of every issue, missions marked as "New Dawn" (Magical Girls and Wonderland Escapees) are eligible for us to bring along one of five different heroes from JU's partner/subordinate organization, New Dawn. We may then also assign two ND members to temporarily come along with us on another, non-ND, mission.
Q: Where did the art come from?
A: Bitterman's personal friend,
@BKNK.SHOP! Her commission sheet is
here.
Q: Can Mendicant heal (x)?
A: Go ask Bitterman, but the answer is usually yes. Usually.
Q: Could we have talked to Global Justice to prevent the rise of Crusade?
A: Yes,
but at a cost. Due to a lack of heroes, we only had 5 total AP between Issues 1-2. Only enough to take three out of the four timed missions, which would have cost 6 AP in total. Us voters simply didn't feel like negotiating with America (who were always shady) over helping out Opale, New Dawn, and Maddie.
While Crusade's rise was a consequence of letting Global Justice go, not taking the other timed missions would have had their own consequences. Letting New Dawn go would have turned the Uni District into goldnine hell, letting Four Seasons go would have had Opale murdered, and then we would have lost
-10 REP, while letting Maddie go would have Petit Prince gain her as a metahuman.
Q: How can I know more?
A: Throwing an @ towards Bitterman sometimes works. However, don't get mad if he tells you to RAFO! (Read And Find Out)
