So, what do you think of Tragedy, Comedy, and Xol's first fight sequence?

Hey guys. I made a slight update in the Mechanics page regarding training as another mistake of mine came to my attention. So please read through the "Training" section when you have the time!


Good luck with the battle! I chose to take out Era and Sil early, but the fight will last a good while yet for your characters if you choose to make it so for them.


If you need to jump ahead for lack of posting time and opportunity due to real life circumstances, then just let me know and I'll accept a shorter response regarding the battle and its outcome for your character. No sense forcing you to post more often than you're comfortable with due to life circumstances after all.


Cheers!
 
Can we make our characters have a sudden spike on power levels in our fights

If it's triggered by anger, frustration, humiliation, or some other powerful negative emotion then yes. That's what I did for Era.


EDIT: But their power has to come right back down, and if the spike was high enough it will have drained a lot of their energy hence the reason Era fainted when it was over.

Also @Anime King Kaleb, and this goes for everyone from now on as well: The lower your maximum power level, the lower any bursts of power from a buildup of negative emotions will be. Another factor is the number of emotions involved.


Era's power multiplied by around 4.5 to a power of 35,000 from her current max of 7,713 due to two emotions including anger and humiliation. Had she experienced more than just those two emotions her power would have increased even more. Had it just been anger, it would have been less as it was against Korvaiis when she only went up to 25,000.


So be sure that when and if you do use bursts of power due to negative emotional buildup that you keep it reasonable and well balanced. If your character has a power of 1,200, they're not likely to go any higher than around 5,000-7,500 no matter how many negative emotions they receive.


The max amount of power our bodies will be capable of sending out in such bursts is around 3-6x their current max power level at best even when all the proper circumstances align. This is because their bodies can only handle so much of an increase at one time before they literally tear themselves apart for not being able to handle it. I'm afraid I won't be able to allow any bursts going beyond that.


Thank you!

Hey look, I actually posted. Hope its okay with what I did, not getting too specific with the number details. Got a better handle on things, so can start posting again. Just trying to figure out how I want this battle to go with this commander guy who I feel I should give more depth too, lol.

You don't need to. He's just going to die one way or the other so any background or depth would be wasted on him.

I was toying with the idea of having Xol attempt to mind-control him and give you an ally, but for the commander dude's power level to allow him to resist Xol's psychic abilities at the cost of leaving him open, giving Itta an advantage. What do you think?

That would work. I haven't had the time to figure out any power levels and stuff like that, but strong enough to destroy the 5000PL of the drones with a single ki blast makes not for an easy opponent. Any help would prove useful.


Also, whats the plan for the future of the battle? Is it just clean up now, or is there some future threat that hasn't revealed itself yet. Just wondering how damaged Itta should be by the end of this.

You may want to tag @Kyero. I don't know either, frankly.

This particular battle has no enemies of note so it's cleanup duty right now.

Just want to make sure as I'm updating the Path to Power


If your power level goes dangerously low, can it cause your body to enter a coma if you don't die first. I mean it seems like something that may happen...

I've been thinking about it and I was wondering if it was implied that there was a robot for medical purposes, you know, for when Raze is in a coma (cough cough) and can't do the medical duties himself.

The most common reasons to enter a coma in the life of a Saiyan are head trauma or depravation of oxygen (being choked out). Either way can cause a coma in the life of a Saiyan. They're naturally hardy people so other known human symptoms such as illness or seizures don't apply. But taking a brutal beating alone won't do it. There has to be severe trauma to the head specifically to the point where the brain swells and presses on the brain stem which causes the coma due to that part of the brain that control arousal and awareness to become compressed and stop functioning as intended.

Also, about Dicchio's technique.


Ki attacks don't just do a certain level of damage like in a video game to a health meter. The power level is only an indicator of relative strength. It's not a measure of how much damage is done so that bit about "doing 22,000 to each enemy" needs to be removed.


And his power wouldn't be anywhere near 22,000. Not if his power going into this was only 1,200 or 1,400 or whatever. Like I said earlier the most we can expect from rage induced power ups is 3-6x the base power level and I know that Dicchio's not at 7,000+ yet.


So please adjust accordingly.

Okay, I already know all that but what exactly happens when your body goes to dangerously low levels. I mean, it's definitely not nothing.

The only reason I put, "doing around 22,000 damage to each enemy" is to give an example of how his attack works. What I mean by "damage" is actually how strong the attack was. If it was only one enemy, it would have been strong enough to obliterate anyone with a power level that counts a a weaker enemy to someone with a power level of 66,000. If it was 2 enemies it would have been 33,000. My only point for that was that the attack is less effective when there is more people inside of the attack. Another thing I should mention just in case this is another determining factor is that the attack Dicchio did was his ultimate attack. The calculations of finding the total amount of damage done after the attack is ((#ofhits*.5*PL) + (#ofhits*2.5*PL)), at least, that's what I put on the Character Sheet.

When your body goes to dangerously low power levels, the Saiyan passes out due to a depravation of energy reserves until such a time as they regain enough to maintain consciousness. That's really about it.


I see where the calculation comes from, but unfortunately it doesn't really make much of a difference. I should have clarified this earlier but nobody asked so I forgot about it. During such a time when your character is powered up by anger, natural Ki amplification techniques such as those used during attacks are basically "disengaged" by the brain and body. Whatever their new maximum power level happens to be when they're fully energized by their anger power up is where their attacks will draw their power from and all other calculations which normally apply are now defunct until they return to their natural state.


Notice how when I mention Era's power shot up to 35,000 I didn't validate or calculate anything beyond that simple fact. Her enemy was far weaker than she was at that point in time and that's all that needed to be said. Anything that happens after that is known and understood to give her the full advantage and benefit of the doubt against her enemy.


Again it's my fault for not clarifying this, and I take full responsibility for it.


But now we all know that normal Ki amplification for techniques is inapplicable during a fit of rage. When your character is in that state their minds do not function in such a way as to allow natural amplification to take place. The body instinctively draws upon the power it currently possesses and trusts that it will be enough to do the job.

To be honest, I'm confused now as the natural amplification of the power was all that happened. I was going to do the emotional spikes for Dicchio, but decided against it as I was at a loss for what to do. Although the move did about 66,000 total, Dicchio was still at 1112, with no spike in his power level itself.
