I'll be very frank. For a supposed living god, Kami's power is... rather tame.

Exactly what I'm thinking man.

If the goal of Kami and Faust is to play a sorta game of chess with their "pieces" I don't see any particular reason why either of them needs to be powerful in combat. I actually like that Kami has a more or less non-combat ability, he could be a very influential being, maybe he's hidden in some secluded place nobody can find, maybe he's extremely hard to kill, but I don't think he has to be a powerhouse.

Also, how much contact do Kami have with the MAGI and Faust have with the Royals?

holy smokes, I kinda like that kind of connection

 

[Table]

So basically, something like Master-Servant situation in Fate franchise where the Servants are actually stronger than the Masters?

I guess that'll be up to GM, I'm just suggesting that we don't need them to be behemoths of battle, they're not gods of war, they're gods of creation and entropy. I'll wait and see what BattleshipNewYork comes up with for lore and intro for us ^w^

Also, I linked everyone's CS page to the chart. Let me know if I made a mistake somewhere.

Kinda that

If the goal of Kami and Faust is to play a sorta game of chess with their "pieces" I don't see any particular reason why either of them needs to be powerful in combat.

True that

The contact, That's about Moderate for both of them when it comes to seeing that

That'll be awhile TwT

Also looking back on this I am seeing similarities on Umineko when they cry Especially that one anime Opening Jeez.

Anyone got any ideas for powers they wouldn't mind me using?

Have some issues thinking of something that isn't too similar to those already taken.

What about playing off of a bishops ability in chess to capture opponents?

Or a focus in being long range and quick to leave in general in terms of a possible fighting style

The first point of note is that bishops are religious figures, their magic can seem otherworldly, maybe. In media bishops often use the power of the light (Alexandar) but can just as easily call upon the shadows (Benedictus) or like the kraken or any other eldritch being. Beric Dondarrion, while not exactly a bishop, worships the flame and his "powers" are associated with fire and smoke, while followers of Umberlee can channel the water. It's pretty open-ended, really.

The difference between a bishop and any other priest is that they're in a sort of managerial, overseer position. They're not usually the ones directly hearing your confessions or officiating weddings or whatnot, so I suppose you can make YC's ability reflect that by being a little more behind-the-scenes or having longer ranged abilities or maybe they can summon things, maybe they're harder to get to and more defensive like a divine bulwark that insulates them from a lot of attacks.

The bishop moves diagonally in chess, and only diagonally. I guess you can make YC have a sort of "trickshot" ability that wouldn't just hit whoever's in front, making their attacks hard to guess and dodge (Yondu's whistle thingamajig or a boomerang, maybe).

Finally, the bishop is a type of songbird. I don't know what to do with this information.

Since YC is a sort of pirate I think you can look into the aforementioned kraken or Calypso or maybe they can call upon ghost ships - I particularly like the fact that ships have to fire cannons sideways, not dissimilar to how a bishop is forced to move diagonally.

Hope this helps? I dunno.

Hi, I have some questions about the universe/lore. I wanna expound on my characters' backstories a little more ^^

- How much of their memory from their past lives do our characters retain? If any memory is kept, will only their true forms know (I guess like Yugi Muto and Atem/Yami)?
- Are the MAGI aware of other MAGIs' human personas and true forms? Are the Royals aware of other Royals's human personas and true forms? Are they aware of their enemy's personas and true forms?
- Is the "game" played by MAGIs and Royals killing the other side, or is there anything more specific? Can characters simply be defeated and removed from the game? What tools do MAGI and Royals each have to track down their allies and enemies alike?
- Is there a lore specific reason why all of our characters are around the same age? Do they attend the same school or live close to each other at all? Why did it take them so long to start fighting again?
- How much of a secret are the true forms and our characters' powers? Is it a no-go to, say, use a fireball to beat up a thug or a bully (or to be the thug/bully)?
- How normal are our characters' lives outside of having this other true form? Are they more like Superman struggling to fit into society or Batman hiding a double life (or neither)?
- Also, not related to universe or lore... how will combat be done?
