trespassers clone [OOC] Trespassers of the Multiverse: V^3 Mini

Hal Henderics · May 31, 2017

Are you a bad enough dude to save the Multiverse? No, you aren't. You are the rank and file, but here is your chance to go beyond that, to play with the big boys. Most of you have experience working with large groups of other cannon fodder, so this should work out rather nicely for you, shouldn't it?

The Multiverse has a problem, incredible monsters of untold power, made by a cruel and massively regretted mistake of multiversal genesis, monsters born in the space between space, ones that only felt painful and torturous hunger, and they aim to sate it on everything that is, taking the forms of heroes and villains.

In this desperate time, a group of the lowest of the low, the weakest who can still fight, have been assembled to fight these beasts, to fight the weakest among them, without risking them growing stronger from the flesh of heroes.

You have been chosen, lifted from your home universe, to fight these foes wherever they appear. Are you prepared to accept this mantle of duty, strong enough to fight to save every existence?

You are not the only ones who can do this. Your chances are slim. But you have a chance to do something incredible. In a multiverse being overtaken by Trespassers, a new breed of heroes must be grown from the common stock, This is that attempt.

Name: (Should be self-evident.)
Age: (Should also be self-evident.)
Gender: (What do you consider yourself? Not the same as your biological sex.)
Race: (No, not skin colour. Are you human? Vulcan? Generic Mary Sue half-breed hybrid?)
Sex: (What are you biologically? Not the same as your gender.)
Appearance: (What do you look like? If you have alternate forms, their appearance should go here. Weapons and stuff are optional.)
Personality: (What are you like?)

Level: Currently, Characters start at level 1.
EXP: Currently starts at 100. EXP will be awarded as players progress through objectives and defeat enemies.

HP: Equal to (((Strength*Level)+Level)/2)+6
Init: Roll 1d6 equal to your Skill. Rolls that are 3 or higher add 1 to your init.

DR: Damage Resistance, Equal to your Strength, plus or minus passive and gear based effects. Incoming damage has this subtracted from this.

Stats: You get (5+Level) stat points to spend. Each stat is capped at a value equal to 1.5*Level + 2, and you gain 1 stat points per level by default.
Strength: Represents overall physical health and vitality. Governs Health, Defense, and Physical Attack.
Synergy: Represents Special Power, such as magic, or sufficiently advanced technology which is not leveraged to the end of physical strength. Governs Status Effect Resistance, Applying Status Effects, Special Attack, Precedent Slots and Enhancing Existing Items.
Skill: Represents Intelligence, Dexterity, and Training, Governs Init, Dodge, Creating new items, and modifier-based actions.

Perks: Perks are powerful bonuses unique or mostly unique to a character, differentiating them from the rest and often defining part of their nature. They can take many forms, from scaling stat boosts to summon-able minions (or representing that one character is actually a pair) to bonus actions and more. Use your imagination; if you can put it into numbers, it can probably be a perk.

Each Players Starts with either One Perk and One Flaw, or Two Perks and Two Flaws. A flaw is essentially a negative Perk, representing a weakness or failing of the character. Players receive 1 additional perk each 5 levels.

Example Perks:

Swift: The character is naturally much faster than most. +1 Skill per level
Remembered Power: The character used to be much stronger than they are now. Their effective level is multiplied by 1.3. (i.e. if a character is level 10, they have the stats of a level 10 character, but are treated as level 13 for the purpose of effects scaling off of level.)
Stand Proud: This character can summon a strong spectral entity with unique powers to assist them in combat.
Regeneration: This character heals very quickly, regaining 10% HP (Minimum 1) at the end of each of their turns.
Evasion: This character dodges incoming attacks, having a Skill*2 chance.

Equipment: Each character starts with two items, Held and Worn. (By default, you have one slot for a held item, and one slot for a worn item) You get three special qualities to assign to your equipment however you wish. Gear cannot be unequipped without sufficient time, and cannot be unequipped/equipped in combat, unless certain passives, special qualities, or perks permit it. Equipment should be formatted as such:

Name: Self-explanatory.
Description: A short description of what the item is.
Type: Held/Worn
Damage: [Die+Stat], Standard Damage for a Starting Weapon is 1d2+Str. Worn Items will not have this stat unless they have a passive attack inherent to them, in which case it works on a case by case basis.
Modifier: The Penalties imposed by wearing this item, or the stats increased by it. A Starting Item will typically increase one non-primary stat by 2, and reduce another one by one. such as increasing damage dealt by 2 in return for decreasing DR by 1, Valid stats to be improved or reduced by an item normally include Init, Damage, Damage Reduction, Crafting, Enhancement, and Health.
Special Qualities: Any special effects a piece of equipment has. These can be basically whatever you imagine; a curse that applies on-hit, level-scaling bonuses, a resistance to a certain damage type, etc. Perhaps a piece of equipment is bound to the user, created by their power somehow; that goes here.

Players may remove one or both of their starting items in return for a stronger held or worn item, or 1 Unit of Local Currency, enough to buy the starting item they forgoed.

Actions: You will take one (possibly more, with buffs) action per turn in combat.

Actions can be active or passive, and are your primary means of resolving combat.

An action is typically an attack or a buff/debuff of some variety, with some kind of special quality attached.

You get 10 AP to start, and +2 per level; a new action costs 2 AP, while leveling an existing one costs 1. Leveling an action should increase its power or utility slightly without fundamentally changing it; basics cannot be leveled. Action level is capped at 2 levels higher than your own.

Example Actions:
Smite: Make a basic attack, and add SYN/2 to the damage. 2 turn cooldown.
-Level 2: Reduces cooldown to 1 turn.
-Level 3: Increases damage to SYN

Ignite: Sets a target on fire, dealing (SYN/2) damage per turn for 1d6 turns.
-Level 2: Increase duration to 2+1d2.

Soothe: Restore 1d2+SYN health to the target.
-Level 2: Cure one status effect the target feels, in addition.
-Level 3: Cure up to two statuses.

Precedents: Players have access to actions outside of combat as well, known as Precedents, they are called such because they are obtained in game, through merit and successful attempts. A player may mark down any non-combat or freeform-combat action they have succeeded at as a Non-combat or freeform-combat Precedent, and if they perform this precedent again, they may increment the number next to it by one, representing the loose level of skill they have attained doing this type of work. Players have precedent slots equal to their Synergy. if players have max precedents, they must remove one precedent to take a new one. Players start with a max of 3 precedents by default.

Inventory: Items not equipped or used in battle that the character possesses, such as currency.

Rule Notes

Reveal hidden contents

Basic System Rundown: Every round, every character in the fight posts one Action and who they're using it on, if applicable. (E.g. Haruka uses Shield Bash on Familiar #3.) Characters can talk, you can describe their actions in detail, etc. Damage is reduced by Damage Resistance and then subtracted from the victim's health. Once every action is submitted, the GM will process them all in the order of initiative, and then the process begins again next round.

Summons: All Summons will be handled on a case by case basis. Summons should not result in an overall stronger character by much.

Standard Statuses:

-Burn: Deals high damage over time, but is reduced by RES.

-Poison: Deals damage over time, ignoring RES.

Dropping to Zero Health: This game will use an injury system. You can take up to three injuries before you die. Injuries are inflicted only when a character drops to zero (or lower) health. Mechanically, an injury functions as a Flaw that is chosen by me (or the GM of the current plot, which I will then vet.) Healing these injuries may be offered as an alternate reward after completing a plotline.
Errata: This kind of system requires a lot of little (and sometimes not-so-little) specifications and adjustments. I'll record them here as they're made.

Nerfs, Buffs: A lot of the time, a character will turn out under- or overpowered. That's okay! We can adjust it on the fly. Be willing to accept that the GM makes mistakes and might have to reduce your character's power to fall in line with others of the same level.

Sheet Maintenance: Players are expected to maintain their own sheets and make changes as the GM recommends. Failure to do so will invite GM action if it becomes an issue.

Bound: The Bound quality is free.

Bound: This equipment is bound to this character's abilities in some way. It cannot be permanently lost, but cannot be upgraded outside of special circumstances.

Negative Special Qualities: If your starting weapon has a negative special quality, such as needing a turn to reload or recoil damage, it's not considered one of your three usable qualities to start.

Perk-backed Actions: They have a baseline power level higher than that of normal ones (since Perks are much more limited) and don't cost AP to get, though they do cost AP to level further.

Critical Hit Systems: The game has no innate critical hit system. Critical strike abilities are limited to scaling off of Skill.

Over-encumberance: There is no minimum stat a modifier can bring you to. you are fully capable of harming yourself equipping an item which penalizes health. Be cautious.

There is a Discord Here. You are strongly advised to join it.

There is a Master Sheet Here. You are strongly advised to ensure your character is in it and updated to the best of your abilities.

I am submitting a character! F.E.A.R. me!

Reveal hidden contents

Name: Cobalt
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Race: Aron
Sex: Male
Appearance: He’s an Aron. A cute, little quadruped with tiny, peg legs, huge, blue eyes, and six inch thick armor made of solid, granite-backed steel.

Personality: Like all Pokemon, Cobalt dreams of becoming part of a champion team, saving the world like a boss. Unfortunately, he’s not exactly a competitively valuable or rare and prestigious species. So saving the world might have to wait. Cobalt is very competitive, and can be a bit overconfident, but his courage only extends as far as things he can actually fight. Stuff that can’t be beaten in battle, particularly things he could sink into like water or quicksand, secretly terrifies him like nothing else.

Level: 1

HP: 9
Init: 1

DR: 3 +2 (+2 vs non-elemental)

Stats:
Strength: 3

Synergy: 2

Skill: 1

Equipment:

Name: Shell Bell
Description: This bell is made of shoal shells and shoal salts. It has a soothing tone when rung, but only chimes in the presence of violence.
Type: Held
Damage: None!
Modifiers: None!
Special Qualities:

Healing Chimes: The Shell Bell heals its user HP equal to 1/8 of the damage they deal with attacks, rounded down.

Shoal’s Respite: Whenever the Shell Bell restores HP, it always restores at least 1 HP.

Name: Smooth Rock
Description: This knobby stone makes sandstorms last longer.
Type: Worn
Damage: None!
Modifiers: +2 damage reduction, -1 initiative.
Special Qualities:

Amplifield Terrain: If the wearer uses an action to modify the field with a sandstorm, that sandstorm’s duration increases by 3 rounds.

Perks:

Elemental Weakness – Water: Being rock-type Pokemon, Aron are weak against water-element attacks. Cobalt takes double damage from such attacks.

Elemental Bane – Ground: Being rock and steel-type Pokemon, Aron are horribly weak against ground-element attacks. Cobalt takes quadruple damage from attacks based around earthquakes, sinkholes, and other such attacks from below.

Heavy Metal: Being made of solid rock coated in steel makes Aron extremely tough to damage with conventional weapons. Increase Cobalt’s damage reduction by his synergy against non-elemental damaging actions.

Sturdy: An Aron’s armor has very few weak points, and cannot be breached by any single attack. Effects that are explicit one-hit KOs do not affect Cobalt, and weather effects do not damage him. As long as he is at full HP, attacks that would reduce him to 0 HP with damage are endured instead, leaving him with 1 HP remaining.

Actions:

Endeavor: Cobalt employs the great equalizer of the Pokemon world to reduce the target’s HP to his HP. This action fails if the target has the same or less HP than Cobalt. Endeavor cannot remove more HP than twice Cobalt’s MHP per hit. While Endeavor bypasses damage reduction and other defenses, it still counts as dealing damage with an attack.

Sandstorm: Cobalt stirs up a sandstorm, covering the battlefield in choking grit. The sandstorm lasts for 3 rounds. While the sandstorm is active, damage reduction buffs from actions have their potency increased by 1, and enemies take damage equal to 1/2 Cobalt’s synergy whenever a round ends. Damage from sandstorms cannot be reduced to below 1 by damage reduction alone, but is not affected by buffs or debuffs on Cobalt. When applicable, the sandstorm also affects nearby fights.

-Level 2: Damage reduction buffs from actions now have their potency increased by 2 while the sandstorm is active, and enemies take damage equal to 1/2 Cobalt’s synergy +1 whenever a round ends.

Metal Claw: Cobalt slashes at an enemy with a claw made of metal, dealing 1d2 + strength damage. Metal Claw has a 10% chance to be a critical hit, which buffs Cobalt’s damage with all actions by his level until the end of combat.

Harden: Cobalt reinforces his armor, increasing his damage reduction by 1 until the end of combat.

-Level 2: Harden’s damage reduction buff per use is now ½ Cobalt’s synergy, rounded up.

Inventory:

Skill Precedents (syn max):

Exotic Diet: Can destroy/break through metal things by eating them.

Modifiers are stat effects, not special qualities
Soundtrack's modifier isn't valid
It has to be a modifier to one of your derived stats, like health, damage, DR, Init, or the like.
You could also take +1 -0 to something, if you didn't want it to reduce a stat.

Also, I made a mistake, it's special quality IS fine

Name: Shanks-many-men (or "Shanks" for short)
Age: ???
Gender: Male
Race: Tonberry
Sex: Male

Appearance: Like all Tonberries, Shanks is a small, reptilian creature shrouded with a hooded brown cloak and often found carrying a lantern. His emerald green scales gleam when viewed under low light, as do his ember amber eyes. Shanks however, sets himself apart from his fellow Tons by wearing a leather belt upon which he hangs his lantern and knife when not in use. Over the years, he has constructed a headdress out of the numerous Chocobo feathers he has found, and can often be seen toting the head cover atop his smooth, reptilian noggin.

Personality: Like many of his kind, Shanks likes dark places and is right at home inside caves and ancient ruins. When he is met with trespassers or active threats to himself, his people or his home, he does just what any Ton hunter would; he takes up his knife and lantern and begins slowly stalking them as they move through the dark unaware... Aside from that though, he is in utter enigma to just about anyone who is not also another Tonberry, just as most of his kind is, given their secretive, esoteric culture and the inherent language barrier most humans have with them. Maybe he's really just a nice little lizard dude deep down inside though, who's a bit territorial... who knows?

Level: 1
EXP: 100

HP: 9
Init: 1*3d2(-1)
DR: 3(+2)=5

Stats: 6/6
Strength: 3
Synergy: 2
Skill: 1

Equipment:

Name: Chef's Knife
Description: A large, wickedly sharp butcher's knife that gleams with an ominous light in dim conditions. It has tasted the blood of many a foolhardy adventurer...
Type: Held
Damage: 1d4+Str
Modifiers: [+2 Damage dealt, -1 Init]
Special Qualities:
-Bound

-Higher quality: [This starting item is improved due to foregoing two starting items]
-Evolving Dagger: "This weapon grows in power with it's wielder, taking more and more lives as time drags on..." [Every 2 levels, this weapon's damage di goes up by another size]
-Deflect: "Light, Nimble, but surprisingly sturdy, this blade is capable of deflecting many strikes when put into deft hands" [Grants +2 DR while equipped]
-No Mercy: "This knife thirsts for blood. It's wielder has every intent of feeding it; mercy is for the weak anyway..." [This weapon deals 25% more damage against enemies who are beneath 50% hp]

Perks:

Ominous Advance:
"Tonberry's have long been dreaded enemies of travelers traipsing in the dark, and for good reason. Lantern held aloft and eyes and knife gleaming with the flickering reflection of flames, the visage of one of these tiny green lizard men slowly walking their way is the last thing many a spelunker has seen. With every step, it seems as if their power grows, and death looms ever closer" [Grants the user access to special "Omen" actions, and allows them to spend their action this turn performing an "Ominous Advance", which will grant them an "Omen Counter". For every Omen Counter the user currently has, they gain +1DR; Omen counters last until they are either expended via using an Omen Action, or until the battle ends]

Lurking Mystery ((Flaw)):
"The user is so mysterious and adept at lurking, it is hard for even their own allies to tell them apart as friend or foe sometimes... making Friendly Fire situations all the more likely [The user is always included as a target by Ally AoE attacks, regardless of the targeting parameters or limits of said attack]

Actions: 10/10
Omen Slash
Level 1: The user expends a number of their current Omen Counters, and then deals a attack with their weapon, with an additional Xd2 pure damage added on (Where X=the number of Omen Counters sacrificed)

Omen Flare
Level 1: The user expends a number of their current Omen Counters, and then sets the target alight with the hellish flames of their lantern, dealing an "Ominous Burn" status which deals Syn+Xd2 damage for 2 turns (Where X=number of Omen Counters Sacrificed).

Omen of Might
Level 1: The user expends a number of their current Omen Counters, and then increases their Str by X (X=Number of Omen counter's expended) for 2 turns

Blood Feast
Level 1: Free action. The next Basic attack the user makes will restore their HP by 30% of the damage they deal. 2 CD

Everyone's Grudge (Passive)
Level 1: When the user makes an Ominous Advance, they will counter any attacks targeted at them until their next turn, dealing Str damage to the perpetrators.

Precedents: (2)
Lurker Loo: Tonberries are masters of sneaking around darkened caves and other areas, evading detection until they choose to make their presence known by igniting their lamps and menacingly approaching their targets. Shanks therefore naturally gains a bonus when trying to sneak or evade detection. [1]

Don't Tread on Us: It is quite simply impossible to pass through Tonberry controlled areas without catching the attention of it's inhabitants. Whether or not they decide to punish the trespassers with a few deadly stabs to the leg is irrelevant, so long as they remain in their lands, the parties in question will be monitored... hence, Shanks gains a bonus when searching for and trying to track enemies. [1]

Inventory:
-x1 Hellfire Lantern- This lantern is a magical tool carried by all Tonberry hunters. Little is known of it's construction, but it seems that the Tonberries versed in it's use can ignite and extinguish it's ominous flame at will, with no need for any sort of fuel whatsoever.

-x1 Tonberry Cloak- A plain, brown cloak worn by the Tonberries. It is made of a strange, soft leather that no one is really sure what animal it comes from, but some speculate it may not come from a mere animal at all...

~~PTW~~ I mean....here is a character!

Reveal hidden contents

Name: Gnarls Barkley
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Race: Post Human
Sex: Male
Appearance: A tall and muscly man of African descent with pitch black skin, and I don't mean brown but we call it black due to racism either, the man literally has pitch black skin. Black as in the missing word from "As [Blank] as the night sky" black. The man has a fuzz of black hair on top of his head, and he prefers to go shirtless whenever possible to show off his muscles, although he is perfectly willing and able to wear environment appropriate clothing.
He is currently wearing a pair of dark blue jeans and basketball shoes.
Personality: An aspiring B-Ball player yearning for a world where the game isn't banned. While the man does have his moments of cynicism, he is often defined by an unbridled optimism and love for the extremely dangerous game, and when asked why he is traveling the multiverse and fighting extremely deadly threats he would simply say "I want to take B-Ball to the next level!"
Class: Defender
Level: 1
EXP: 0

HP: 9
Init: Skill * 3d2
DR: 3+2

Stats:
Strength: 3
Synergy: 1

Description: Seemingly nothing but a regular if highly illegal Basketball made by the Spalding company, it crackles with lightning in the hands of a true B-Ball player.
Type: Held
Damage: 1d4+Str
Modifiers: +2 Damage -1 Init
Special Qualities:

Higher Quality: This starting item is improved due to forgoing two starting items
B-Ball Defense Form: The wielder has learned how to defend themselves using a defensive B-Ball form known as "The Way of Bill Russel". They are granted a +2 to DR due to learning this powerful defensive form.
B-Ball Mastery: As Gnarls grows in experience and power his B-Ball starts to...shift slightly. As if it was maturing with its wielder.... Every 2 levels, this weapon's damage die goes up by another size.
Force of Chaos: Gnarls does not know why yet, but his B-Ball crackles with a primal lightning whenever he wields it in battle. He thinks that it is just trying to make him look cool.
Damage dealt by weapon is treated as Lightning damage if it would be beneficial.

Perks:
Seeker of Myths: Grants access to the action "Verboten Jam"
Flaws:
B-Ball Novice: Barkley believes that part of the power he is looking for comes from excessive amounts of preperation and skill.
Rather unfortunately he does not have enough skill to control his raging B-Ball granted powers, and he tries to compensate for this by shouting out the names of his attacks whenever possible before making them.
Cannot make damaging actions during the first round as he spends that time preemptively shouting the names of the attacks he wants to use.

Actions:
Level 3 Verboten Jam: Make a weapon attack with an additional +Str damage, add +Str damage for every use of this action in the battle. 1 round cooldown.
Level 1 Power Up: Enhances a single ally with the collected powers of the B-Ball, increasing the damage they deal with the next attack by 1

Level 1 Overpower: Make a basic attack against an enemy and make an opposed Str v Str check, if they fail the check they are stunned.
Level 2: Add a +Str/2 damage
Passive Level 1 Unjammable: When performing a Verboten Jam Gnarls has an additional +Str bonus to any oposed checks made against him to see if he is stunned.

Bonus to any rolls involving jumping or avoiding something
