Updates

[Lord Gadigan]

New rules for sub-characters:

All current sub-characters are now full PCs with full slots. I lost my tracker for sub-PCs and slots, so we're just making everyone full and not stuck with one another. New sub-PCs may happen in the future, but that will be addressed at that time.

New rules for slots:

A PC has the following slots:
1) A battle slot
- Usable for battles, event matches, special matches, mini-quests, and the like.
2) A player thread slot
- Usable for standard player quests.
3) A major quest slot
- Usable for official quests and megaquests so that we don't have to force PCs through threads when those hit.
4-A to 4-Z) A mod-run slot for each mod running worlds
- One per PC per mod who is running worlds.

New rules for items in multiple threads:
- Items can be in multiple places at a time.
- If multiple different things happen to an item in multiple places, the worst generally carries after the threads end.
- Sometimes things may echo between threads, but this is something I can handle and isn't something that players need to check about - if I haven't said that something has happened, nothing has happened.
- If multiple different positive things happen with an item in multiple places, I can sort out the final result.
- Hopefully item conflicts won't happen too often, but I think that we can make this work.

A general request:
- People should try to maintain a set of modified stats so that they can jump into statted events without having to spend days making their builds.
- People should also try to maintain a set of RP equipment and an ability list (without modified stats) to be able to jump into RP-events when those pop up.

There was almost another slot for statted events, but general chat feedback indicated a preference that those just be unslotted, so we can just roll with that instead.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules update:

If an entity would suffer a penalty to a stat it does not possess from a means that is not Stat Damage, that value is instead deducted from all of its stats. This extra, uncapped stat reduction may not be converted to any other type of stat reduction by anything that does not specifically convert stat reduction resultant from stat reduction having been applied to a stat an entity does not possess.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules clarification:

Only Outer Lords may purchase World Laws from the Ability Shop. Other characters may be able to sometimes obtain them from special rewards or other means.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules Clarifications:

New PCs do not currently start with SAN, INF, or RES.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules clarification:

When something affects all of an individual's stats without specifying what those stats are, it only affects stats that individual possesses unless otherwise noted.

[Lord Gadigan]

Please update Lili's deity profile (and any other existing PC deity profile) so that the Max Benefit Level is (PC Level - 1) instead of a divided version of PC Level. If someone is starting with something higher, please let me know.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules Update for PC Deities:

A PC who becomes a deity may set up a deity block in the style of the ones for NPC Patron Deities.

A PC deity's Max Benefit Level is, by default, equal to that PC deity's Level minus one.

A PC with passive abilities whose name includes 'Bestow Worshiper Benefit' may set up conditionals for the acquisition of those benefits. These benefits may be claimed in RP threads, or, if the conditionals are purely mechanical, may be claimed in Ability Shop posts. Conditionals may include the possession of a given Level, subtype, element, ability, and/or item. They may also include task-like requirements, which the PC attempting to obtain the benefit and/or the PC granting the benefit are responsible for tracking. They may also include requiring a nebulous 'quest', in which case the benefit is only granted via RP threads. A PC deity may change these benefits at any time or choose to specifically grant a PC who has not met a requirement one of the PC deity's worshipper benefits or to specifically bar a given PC worshiper from obtaining a benefit that worshiper would otherwise qualify for.

A PC setting up such a deity block may decide its own tenets. Barring unusual circumstances, the PC decides when a tenet has been violated and whether corrective action for that violation involves the removal of one or more granted worshipper benefits. If a PC does so, this may happen immediately in RP threads, acting across threads even if the PC deity is not directly present there, unless it is judged by Gadigan or a mod running a mod-run-world thread that the location the PC is in (or some other circumstance) would interfere with said remote monitoring and removal. If a PC loses worshiper benefits in this manner, their loss occurs between instances of a battle thread - current battles, random quests, special matches, event matches, and the like conclude without modification, but cannot be repeated with the lost benefit.

A PC deity may choose its own favored classes, elements, and subtypes. These have no mechanical effect on their own and exist at the PC deity's discretion, but must be actual known classes, elements, and subtypes.

A PC deity does not by default obtain an afterlife and should omit that section of the block unless specifically and actively instructed to do otherwise.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules Clarification:

PC deity blocks should get their own post in the Patron Deity thread.

[Lord Gadigan]

Rules clarification:

PC deities may worship themselves. RP-wise, this represents a focus on one's own divine power and refining it rather than literal self-worship most of the time.

Shop Update:

[19:59] Ordo Hereticus: As a related question, should Kadamarthus Spice and Swagleaf still be Food Consumables, or should they go over to live in Drugs?
[19:59] Ordo Hereticus: Kadamarthus Spice- (Consumable, Food, Fire & Psychic & Spatial, 1 Charge, 17,000,000 Gold) Satiates addiction; Has RP effects
Swagleaf- (Consumable, Food, Wealth & Illusion, 1 Charge, 5,000,000 Gold) Satiates addiction; Has RP effects
[20:00] Ordo Hereticus: related mostly because I suspect Drug-Lord Ryuutarou wasn't exactly the plan for the Recipe book, but it's technically a legal option while they're food XD
[20:01] Gadigan: Please convert them to Drugs. This can be posted.
Amused by Drug-Lord Ryuutarou, though. If you want a month of producing those two, you can
[20:01] Ordo Hereticus: Nah, hahahaha
[20:02] Ordo Hereticus: Oh, not relevant to the Recipe book, but another thing outside of the Drug Category
[20:02] Ordo Hereticus: Neuron Grease- (Consumable, Potion, Psychic & Technology & Energy & Electrical, 1 Charge, 30,000,000 Gold) Satiates addiction; Has RP effects
[20:02] Ordo Hereticus: is a Potion
NEW
[20:03] Gadigan: Make it a Drug too, please

[The Nottest of Daves]

New ruling:

* Damage values present on standard Enemy-style attacks are considered to be Static Damage.
* Attacks using Static Damage perform damage calculations as though they were Enemy attacks, even if a PC is performing them, but are not inherently considered Flat.
* Any Flat or Static Damage value that is part of an ability or Constant Effect, but not an item, is considered to be a Listed Damage Value.

As per statements here:

[7:21 PM] The One True Pathaky: "and possessor's listed Damage values are multiplied by 3 as an effect that does not stack with any othe effect that multiplies possessor's listed damage values,"

[snipped for brevity]

[Lord Gadigan]

New Levelup Requirement for Knights:

They need Knightly Commendations from one of their orders (and at least one from each order in the case of knights with multiple orders), obtained for completing quests (official, player, mod-run) that are in sync with their orders' goals.

9:59 PM] Celas: Suggestion!
[9:59 PM] Celas: Set a level requirement at 19/39/etc for Knights as "Knightly Commendation" or something to that effect
[10:00 PM] Celas: Something tangible that can be awarded for quests and actions and the like
[10:00 PM] Gadigan: I like this idea, maybe a certain number of them at each mark
[10:00 PM] Gadigan: That way the knights don't just rocket up to 99
[10:01 PM] Gadigan: 1 at 19, 5 at 39, 10 and 59, 25 at 79, with quests at the respective level being needed for them
[10:01 PM] Gadigan: Yes, doing this
[10:01 PM] Gadigan: Thank you

[Lord Gadigan]

Since the question has circled back multiple times in the past week, here is a formal rules clarification:

Battlespaces are not buffs. Battlespaces may not be carried between battles and do not persist between battles.

[Lord Gadigan]

Please add Edgelander and Virtue to the list of subtypes selectable by Outer Lords.

[Lord Gadigan]

- A Knight of the Orders may pledge Oaths, purchasing them from the Ability Shop to do so. Each Oath provides a benefit, but imposes a behavioral requirement that only applies in RP threads. If an Oath's behavioral requirements are broken in an RP thread, its status becomes violated, the Knight loses the benefits from it, and the Knight becomes unable to cap-break. The Knight must undertake an atonement quest from one of is Orders (or an appropriate allied organization) to fix the violation. Once the atonement quest is completed, the Knight may choose between making the Oath active again and ceasing to possess the Oath.
- If a Knight of the Orders obtains a Commandment of the Seething Idol, the Commandment counts as an Oath, and, if it would be lost due to behavior, it instead becomes violated like a standard Oath would.

==================================

- A Concord Administrator may purchase a Cosmohack for an Oath (but not a Commandment of the Seething Idol). Purchasing a Cosmohack for an Oath that is available in the Shop, Ability Shop, or Guild Shop costs 10,000,000 Gold and 1 Week. Purchasing a Cosmohack for an Oath that is not available in the Shop, Ability Shop, or Guild Shop costs 500,000,000 Gold and 5 Weeks.
- If an Oath is Cosmohacked, the Concord Administrator, if in the same battle as an individual with that Oath pledged, regardless of whether or not it has been violated, may choose for that individual to not benefit from that Oath, and, if the Concord Administrator does so, the Concord Administrator instead benefits from it. In RP threads, the Cosmohacked Oath functions for the Concord Administrator regardless of the Concord Administrator's behavior; individuals who have pledged an Oath that is Cosmohacked who violate that Oath's requirements during the Cosmohacking generally still count as having violated that Oath once the Cosmohacking ends.

[Lord Gadigan]

==================================

A Mandate Magellan is not a BA member and is different from a BA member as follows:
* A Mandate Magellan may not perform absorbs.
* A Mandate Magellan may not perform combos.
* A Mandate Magellan begins with 60 distributable base stat points.
* Mandate Magellans do not get bonus-points to assign on level-up.
* A Mandate Magellan may be Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Light, Darkness, Physical, Psychic, Electrical, Energy, Acid, Ice, War, Moon, Metal, Law, Civilization, Spatial, Time, Astral, or Aether element.
* A Mandate Magellan may be a Human, Fae, Humanoid, Animal, Robot, Edgelander, Mutant, Reptile, Celestial, Illuminated, Daemon, Infernal, Warshard, Golem, Machine, Clockwork, Aquatic, Aerial, Cthonian, Astral Being, Plant, Undead, Dragon, Metahuman, Agarthan, or Gigas.
* A Mandate Magellan may not participate in Event Matches.
* A Mandate Magellan may not participate in Mini Quests.
* A Mandate Magellan may not participate in Event Matches, excluding the Boss Rush and Alternative Boss Rush.
* A Mandate Magellan does not obtain starting Warehouse Tickets but may turn them in if it acquires them somehow.
* A Mandate Magellan possesses a special Transformation called a Magellan's Vessel. The Magellan's Vessel may be named by its controlling Magellan, but additionally counts as possessing the name 'Magellan's Vessel: <Controlling Magellan's Name>'. It is a Mech & Robot. It may optionally be given the subtypes Machine and/or Clockwork. It is not an item, cannot be destroyed as though it were an item, cannot be stolen, and cannot be removed from threads by effects that remove items from threads. Effects that would normally detransform a transformed individual, excluding the death of the transformation, do not detransform a Mandate Magellan transformed into its Magellan's Vessel unless coming from an entity that is 20 or more Levels greater than the Magellan. Unlike most transformations, the Magellan's Vessel has its own base stat values and calculates its stats using them as though it were a PC. A Magellan's Vessel begins with 70 distributable base stat points; it cannot put more than 10 of them into MIN or SPI, but it adds half its controlling Magellan's base MIN and base SPI to its corresponding base stats (rounding up).
* A Mandate Magellan gains a special track in the Ability Shop that may be used to purchase abilities for its Magellan's Vessel. The Vessel may use its controlling Magellan's abilties for prerequisite purposes but may itself only purchase Robot Traits, Machine Traits, Clockwork Traits, and abilities that have one of the aforementioned abilities as a prerequisite (or as a prior mandatory element somewhere earlier in a prerequisite tree). This means that this track cannot be used to initially purchase things until the controlling Magellan gets the abilities that are the prerequisites for one of the above traits.
* A Megellan's Vessel possesses special slots called Supersystem Slots. By default, it begins with slots for 1 Frame, 1 Drive, 1 Reactor, 1 Field-Emitter, 1 Plating, 1 Paintjob, 3 Ordnance, 3 Modules, 4 Programs, and 4 Special Cargo.
* Supersystems may be purchased using a Magellan's Vessel's ability track or its controlling Magellan's tracks or may be acquired through other means. Some have special requirements for purcahse. Once purchased, they may be installed at any time their controller could equip non-specific carried items and may be uninstalled at any time their controller could unequip non-specific equipped items. All owned Supersystems are always considered installable if uninstalled unless otherwise specified; they are not items and do not have to be carried in an inventory.
* A Mandate Magellan must begin all non-RP-thread threads and battles transformed into its Magellan's Vessel if able.
* If a Mandate Magellan who is transformed into its Magellan's Vessel would be killed in the transformation, it, as an effect that stops the checking of end-of-battle-conditions by sides without members who are Level 100 or greater until resolved, is given the option of performing an Emergency Ejection, and, if it chooses to do so (being able to do so a max of once per thread), detransforms from the dead transformation - effects that would control a Mandate Magellan's decision may only control its decision if they could control it both in and out of the dying transformation.
* A Mandate Megellan possesses 1 fewer Accessory Slot than an Arena Member, but is always considered to be wielding a non-destroyable, non-stealable Civilization & Knowledge element Trinket Accessory called '<Magellan's Name>'s Magellan's Compass that by default allows its wielder to spend an action to scan the stats of all individuals in all battlespaces or to move to any other existing battlespace so long as no greater-Level entity in either battlespace objects.
* A Mandate Magellan possesses an Ablative Forcefield. It has (100 x the Magellan's Level x the Magellan's Base MIN) HP. If the Magellan would be dealt Damage by a source that is not gerater Levels than the Magellan that is not a negative status effect or a debuff and the Magellan's Forcefield possesses at least 1 HP, the Damage is instead dealt to the Magellan's Forcefield. If an individual instance of Damage (from a single hit of an attack or a single other application) reduces the Magellan's Forcefield's HP to 0, remaining Damage does not carry over to possessor. The forcefield may be healed as though it were a separate individual from the Magellan, but cannot be healed by entities that are not Mandate Magellans (with transformed Mandate Magellans being able to heal the Ablative Forcefields).
* Diviner, Geomancer, Scientist, Captain, Rider, Mech Jockey, Engineer, Gunner, Matrix Keeper, and Scholar abilities cost Mandate Magellans 1 fewer week in the Ability Shop to learn, to a minimum of 1 week.
* Mandate Magellans do not require Seal Pieces to break Level caps. Instead, they must possess given numbers of Supersystems, Retainer Augments, and successful world-region takeovers, as per the following chart:
Level 20- 2 Frames, 2 Drives, 2 Reactors, 2 Field-Emitters, 2 Platings, 2 Paintjobs, 6 Ordnance, 6 Modules, 8 Programs, 8 Special Cargo, and 20 Retainer Augments.
Level 40- 4 Frames, 4 Drives, 4 Reactors, 4 Field-Emitters, 4 Platings, 4 Paintjobs, 12 Ordnance, 12 Modules, 16 Programs, 16 Special Cargo, 40 Retainer Augments, and 1 successful world-region takeover.
Level 60- 8 Frames, 8 Drives, 8 Reactors, 8 Field-Emitters, 8 Platings, 8 Paintjobs, 24 Ordnance, 24 Modules, 32 Programs, 32 Special Cargo, 100 Retainer Augments, and 5 successful world-region takeover.
Level 80- 24 Frames, 24 Drives, 24 Reactors, 24 Field-Emitters, 24 Platings, 24 Paintjobs, 100 Ordnance, 100 Modules, 250 Programs, 250 Special Cargo, 250 Retainer Augments, and 25 successful world-region takeover.
* Mandate Magellans are based in The Saitoserris Mandate and respawn there on the parallel reality version of the Imperial Homeworld.

==================================

- A Concord Administrator may purchase a Cosmohack for a Supersystem. Purchasing a Cosmohack for a Supersystem that is available in the Shop, Ability Shop, or Guild Shop costs 10,000,000 Gold and 1 Week. Purchasing a Cosmohack for a Supersystem that is not available in the Shop, Ability Shop, or Guild Shop costs 500,000,000 Gold and 5 Weeks.
- If a Supersystem is Cosmohacked, the Concord Administrator, if in the same battle as an individual with that Supersystem, may, even if transformed, choose at the start of battle and at the start of each round to negate the Supersystem's effect for any transformation (or individual) using it (with it installed or otherwise active; owned but uninstalled Supersystems that are not active do not count) and may apply its benefits, if they are being negated, to any transformation the Concord Administrator is transformed into or a passenger in.

==================================

Retainers-

Some PC types may acquire Retainers.

A Retainer, if an entity subtype that the PC is allowed to purchase, may be purchased in the Ability Shop from the Enemy List, provided that it normally fightable for drops on the Enemy List, costing 1,000,000 x its Level Gold and (1 x (Its Level/5, rounded up)) Weeks to purchase. An individual may only purchase Retainers of lower Level.

A Retainer, once possessed, gives the PC the option of using the enemy that is the Retainer as a Cohort or as Followers. A PC may not bring equal or higher Level cohorts or followers into a thread.

Cohorts may be brought into a thread in Pet slots, becoming Unique, gaining a second name of its controlling PC's choice (but also counting as possessing its original name), and have their natural stats, HP, MP, Defense, and Damage values multiplied by 2. Once brought into a thread in this manner, they act as pets, except where noted otherwise.

Followers may be brought into a thread in Spell slots. A PC with one or more Followers in Spell slots may, at the start of a round, choose a max of one type of equipped Follower and summon up to (the owning PC's Level) of that Follower (with a summon cap equal to 10 times the owning PC's Level). Followers in spell slots are always semipresent and may be targeted as Spell items, with something that manages to 'cast' them (although they do not normally possess an MP cost that would allow them to be cast) summoning a group equivalent to what their owner would have summoned were they selected at the start of a round. Summoned Followers behave as normal summons except where otherwise noted.

A Retainer may be brought into a thread as both a Cohort and as Followers at the same type, but may only be brought into a thread as each once.

Only one Cohort may be brought into a thread by a PC.

PCs, once in possession of a Retainer, may then purchase subtype-specific Retainer Augments, applying them to a single Retainer each time they are acquired (but being able to purchase them multiple times for different Retainers). Most Retainer Augments have different effects for Cohorts and Followers (and some only effect one or the other).

Battle Arena Members, Fated Ones, and Well-Locked BA Members may not take Retainers.

Concord Administrators may take Humans, Humanoids, Fae, Aerials, Astral Beings, Elementals, Robots, Machines, and Coded Beings as Retainers.
Enigma Men may take Humans, Humanoids, Fae, Reptiles, Cthonians, Robots, Bio-Horrors, Horrors, Mindshadows, Umbrals, and Living Rumors as Retainers.
Keybearers may take Humans, Humanoids, Fae, Aquatics, and Elementals as Retainers.
Knights of the Orders may take Humans, Humanoids, Fae, Solar Beings, Celestials, Brilliants, Innocents, Paragons, Angels, Devas, Aisurii, Spireguides, Verdants, Wishkin, and Fantasmics as Retainers.
Mandate Magellans may take Humans, Humanoids, Fae, Mutants, Robots, Machines, and Clockworks as Retainers.
Outer Lords may take entities of their own subtypes as Retainers.

[Lord Gadigan]

Here are six new PC types. They are considered Lesser PC Types for anything that checks such (though I don't have any mechanical impact of that yet). Any slot can be used to make one of these instead of a BA member if you wanted to for some reason, but they're mostly being built in preparation for other (better) PC types that potentially build off their rules.
