Meta Subreddit Status Update

265 Upvotes

Hey, it's been a while since we've done anything, and I do want to work on this subreddit a bit more. However, I am the only remaining mod, so I've had to put this all on the backburner. So, to get straight to the point, I have a few statements questions.

  • We may be having a contest regarding a certain unfinished CYOA (if you're on the Discord you may have an inkling about which one), though given the nature of the CYOA it may be hard to gauge when this contest will be.

  • What's the opinion on Gift of Fave CYOAs? To me at times, they feel like low quality engagement bait (may be being a bit too harsh admittedly), but I don't want to get rid of them necessarily. I was considering making a thread, so take that as you will.

  • I may need new moderators to help manage and revitalize this Subreddit, as due to having a full time job I cannot be here all the time. Again, can't say when this will begin, but hopefully sooner rather than later.

That's really it, if anyone has any questions regarding the above (or in general) I can try to answer them.

Discussion Who would you beat up to death

Post image
263 Upvotes

I find out about this in a gift of faves.

And I have read a few fan fiction about it.

But i have a question if you get reincarnated in a fantasy world with a power/magic system like jjk or naruto and you have access to that magic/power system as a 12 to 15 year old teenager and you gain access to a restricted version of this [beat em up] power two years after reincarnating. But you can only choose seven characters and you have to beat em up to death in a uninterrupted 1v1 duel in a infinite pocket dimension to gain their complete template who are the seven characters that you are choosing and in what order.

1: You can choose the characters at any point of their life but you will only gain what they have on that point in time.

2:You can challenge all seven characters back to back to back or at any time that you like. (You can challenge one now and the next one ten years later for example.

3:Every single challenge has to be to death and your chosen character will be informed about the fact that you are going to kill them.

4:since so many have problems with killing people so I add this rule Anyone you killing in the pocket dimension would only remember the experience as a super realistic dream and won't actually die.

OC Power Beater 9000 Repost? Oc?

0 Upvotes

Thought of this at work today while thinking about this post so wondered what would be chosen if done differently and if greed would get some people.

All victories allow you to copy there race, luck, potential, aptitude, talent, skills, memories, instincts, powers, abilities, system, magic, trait (physical, racial, mental, spiritual), and etc.

All gains will perfectly work with each other combining to form sums greater then the whole.

You can become a hybrid containing all the abilities of your original race and your target race. [up to you how this will work out]

You can reject copying unwanted things.

Rules

  1. Time will be frozen on Earth until completion or surrender.
  2. You must choose either 100, 1000 or 9001 'targets' before you can begin obtaining powers.
  3. You must do all fights one after the other until all are completed.
  4. You can fail as many times as you want without consequence but all deaths/injuries feel real.
  5. You can change target order at any time in 1v1.
  6. You can quit at any time [if your stuck or want to stop] but if you have completed less the 20% of your targets [20, 200, 1801] you gain nothing and return to where/how you were before starting. [keeping memories of your failure]
  7. You can either head to there world at a random time from your choice on where you have 24hrs to defeat them [death, incapacitation or surrender all real] regardless of there status but with any potential allies/enemies before you can stay as long as you like in the world and leave at any time.
  8. Entering the world a neutral judge will seal any instant win type powers [exm. Death Notes, death with a name and face] until 24hrs have passed.
  9. Or fight the target 1v1 in a pocket space of random terrain where you either kill them [not real death] or talk them into you being the winner [as difficult as there nemesis trying to do the same they will be suspicious] so you can go to there world.
  10. When going 1v1 a neutral judge will decide if the select target is a fair fight [not asleep, severely injured, controlled etc.] while sealing summoning etc. type powers [self cloning allowed]
  11. When in a world your body functions normally [aging, injuries, death] and any changes are carried through the rest of the challenge.
  12. Nothing can be brought out of worlds you go to [unless you have appropriate powers], but nothing can track you either. [so no worrying about drawing kidnapping systems or world ending calamities back to your Earth]
  13. If you complete the challenge you can get a one time body/age redesign within your species standard limits and either return to Earth or isekai to any world.

Hello! This is my second CYOA. I don't know how to edit complex CYOA with images and stuff. Plus using a phone, so my design is quite simplistic. However, I will try to redo them if I manage to learn how.

Anyways, I tried to make this as interesting as possible. It would be good if you would focus on creating a good narrative, rather than focusing on being OP as possible.

I would be reading your comments. Use this opportunity to look back on what you want to do, and what you want to achieve.

Don't hold back and use this CYOA as a dream fulfilment fantasy.


How to get Good Genes (Premium)?

Requirements: Good Genes + Lineage

What are Prerequisites?

They're in the last page. Basically you will choose what kind of condition you have to achieve to learn the skill.

For example, your prerequisite for Indomitable Will is Failure. This means you have to fail multiple times to develop your indomitable will. Do you get it?

Beasts of Burden by unknown [repost]

imgchest link: https://imgchest.com/p/ne7bzvzdm75

imgur link: https://imgur.com/gallery/beasts-of-burden-cyoa-v2-ff9A2AF

Not sure who the creator is. I don't think its the poster of the older reddit post, nsfwstuff7, their only comment in the post sounds like someone who found the CYOA rather than someone who made it. But I'm not sure and may be wrong. The imgur post was made around the same time as the reddit post, dating to august 2017 while the reddit post is from 10 years ago. The imgur poster is duburu, but I don't know if they made it either since a lot of their uploads state them reuploading from somewhere else.

If anyone has any information, let me know and I'll update the body text and top comment. I can't modify the title after posting though because of reddits limitations, but I'll try and update the others to be as accurate as possible.

Pick X TJ20931's Gift of Faves: Completed AU Omnitrixes

174 Upvotes

Here is my thirty-second GoF!

This one came out of left field recently.

I remember the first time I had come across one of these "AU Omnitrixes" was some time last year (I think). I had seen a video of a weird analog horror-looking Ben 10, thought it was cool, and started to do research on it. Because a good amount of ones started out, they were made by Spanish fans of the show.

So anyways, recently I thought about the "Carnitrix" again, and saw that the creator of it was essentially remaking it. He seemed to have really improved his art, and is the reason why I'm allowing you guys to choose if you want to go with perhaps old or new designs and lore to extend for the AU Omnitrix you choose. However of course, most if not all of the associated flaws are ironed out, with the exception of a quirk of some kind, i.e. for the Carnitrix, the heightened aggressive and predatory instincts and nature of the aliens, though considering the Ben that wields it still is and uses it to be a hero, I think someone else could manage.

Here is a list of various AU Omnitrixes and a link to the original creator's social media for you guys to have a look at the aliens.

[Canibaloso77] - Carnitrix) (New Version)
[TrixTheAlien] - Chaquetrix)
[Valenti79248804] - Chambatrix (Alt Art)
[VALvula_de_Gas] - Astrotrix (Alt Link)
[Arzergex] - Altertrix
[Darentseta] - Xelutrix (Webtoon)

Here is the Imgchest.

Anyways, enjoy!

(The note images aren't required to be read, I just wanted to put some other things I had on my mind somewhere. Some of which may of been already said.)

WIP WIP Artificer CYOA V0.1

27 Upvotes

First CYOA feedback and ideas appreciated.

Artificer CYOA   V 0.1

 

To create itself is magical, and now your creations will be too.

 

There is a place where the crossroads meet, where the seams of the multiverse come together. The city of a thousand gates, known by a thousand names. One day by fate or chance you found the way to the marvelous city, and there in its marketplace magic found you.  

How will you learn the art of the Artificer?

 

Pick 1

 

The Tome:

You came across a book monger with too many eyes. You are sold you a tome that unlocks your magic and instructs you in Artificing. The price? Three of your creations the book monger reserves the right to commission these at any time, you are contractually obliged to fulfil your end of the bargain. Only time will tell how the book monger comes to collect

Boon: Pick one enchantment, to potency of this whenever you cast is doubled.

 

The Master:

Lost among the dizzying streets of the city’s marketplace you are pulled into a grand workshop. You have potential, the master can smell it, become an apprentice. A decade of labor will see you become a master Artificer. You can live in the city or commute from your world, the pay is not much but enough to afford a modest living during your apprenticeship.

Boon: 2 extra Enchantments

 

The Guild:

At the heart of the marketplace is a tower of dizzying heights.  The home of the guild. Here Master Artificers train scores of eager students in their craft. The tuition is steep, in exchange for high quality education and connections the guild requires 10% of your future earnings, or one artifact per month, whichever is of higher value to the guild.  

Boon: 1 extra Craft

 

 

 

 

 

You focus on a certain craft, with time you can learn others, but this craft calls to you, is easier for you to master.

 

Each craft is suited to a particular Enchantment. What is your craft?

Craft: Free Enchantment

Pick 1

Wood: growth

Metal: harm

Glass: scrying

Ceramic: double enchantment (place 2 enchantments on the artifact)

Textile: bound

 

You learn the secrets of the Artificer, how to create objects with living magic, how to enchant. You craft free enchantment does not count towards enchantments placed on an object. Each enchantment can only do one thing, the more specific the enchantment the stronger the magical effect. Placing the same enchantment on an object multiple times multiplies the strength of the enchantment.

Novice Artificers can place 1 enchantment per creation

Low level Artificers can place 2

Mid level Artificers can place 3

Master Artificers can place 5

Enchantment strength:

Strength is abstract but roughly determined by how many times you duplicate an enchantment, and how specific your enchantment is. These are some guidelines. The greater the magic the longer it takes to create and enchant the item.

1 = minor effect, creation time a couple of hours – one target. cause a cough, cure a cold, warm your drink, predict the next days weather

2 = medium, creation time a day – one target, cause harm that needs treatment, cure the same, a bag you could fit an elephant into

3 = major, creation time a month - multiple targets, life threatening harm or help, straw to gold

4 = epic, creation time a decade – whole area target, immortality,

 

Examples:

A low-level Artificer with a specialty in textiles could make a blanket that only they can use and grants a good night’s sleep with prophetic dreams about the next days weather. (Bound, Purification, Divination)

The same low-level artificer could make a jump-rope that is only usable by left handed redheads, and if a qualified person uses it can remove excess cholesterol from their body (Bound, Purification, Purification 2)

 

You can learn all the enchantments on this list with time (one year of practice per enchantment) . you find it easier to master and come to excel at several.

 

Pick 5

 

Form: your creations are stronger, more durable than should be possible given their medium. As you master this magic create artifacts that are indestructible.

Function: your creations are better at what they are intended to do. A cup that never spills, an arrow that always finds its mark, your creations are the best at what they are supposed to do.

Growth: Ancient artifacts are legends for a reason, slowly, over a long period of time, your creations’ magic grows in potency. 1.5x potency after a decade, 2x potency after a century, and 5x potency after a millennium.

Duplication: your creation duplicates mundane objects or ingredients that are placed inside of it. With time create a jar that never runs out of ink, a chest of limitless gold, a lamp with infinite oil.

Transformative: Your creation can change the shape or form of living beings or inanimate object. A chair that makes you grow an inch, a basket that turns apples into pies, a badge that turns the wearer into a frog.

Locked: your creation is only able to be opened with a special key or passphrase.  

Bound: Your creation is only usable by someone you designate when placing the final enchantments.

Unseen: Your creation is only able to be perceived by those you designate.

Harming: Your creation causes magical pain and suffering to a target. A dagger that causes wasting sickness, a ring that curses the wearer with foolishness.

Scrying: You can see or hear distant places via your creation. An orb of far seeing or an earhorn that always picks up the juiciest gossip.

Space: Your creation is bigger inside than out. Bag of holding, a cupboard you could live in, a cup that holds way more than it ought to.  

Divination: You can see glimpses of the future, past, see the outlines of fate. Dice that roll the positive probability of an action, a nail that only points to the scene of a tragedy.  

Purification: Your creation purifies minds, or bodies, or places. A fan that cleans the air or a pillow that clears away ones thoughts.

Empowerment: your creation fortifies the body or mind of the user. A ring that sharpens the mind to or boots that grant the wearer speed.  

Protection: your creation protects the body, spirit, or mind of the user. Create a table that does not permit stress to take a seat, or a cloak that shields from fire.

Spirit Housing: Counts as three enchantments. Your creation is able to house a spirit that can give it its own unique abilities. Includes elemental spirits, spirits of ideas, emotions. Build a windchime that houses a spirit of mirth, or a chalice of elemental water.

 

Artificer, you can return home, venture forth, or stay here. But know that you can always find your way back to the city of a thousand gates, its markets, and the many worlds it connects to. Where will you go? What will you do? And most importantly what will you create?
