So, >>56403297 just asked what kamigakari is.

Kamigakari is a JTTRPG Focused on episodic storytelling, with simple but tight mechanics.

Its design goal is to start players spread out, getting involved with the episodes peculiarities, and eventually coming together to fight a big bad, A la Power rangers, Kamen rider, Magical girl shows, and other such shows in that vein.

TL;DR, Its a Monster of the Week Format game with an emphasis in the fluff on high power shenanigans of just about every type.

So who develops this game?

Is it a bunch of people or just one anon?

>>56403473
It's a japanese TTRPG, translated by an anon.

>The Lord does not forgive wickedness... in the name of the Knights-Templar, I shall punish you.

That line on page 73 of the core rulebook PDF makes me giggle. I it's good stuff.

>>56403869
I dunno if thats a literal translation or if kamigakari anon just has a sense of humor, but thats actually pretty funny.

>>56403976
I know. I wasn't being sarcastic. I genuinely like it and think it's funny.

>>56403985
I didn't think you were being sarcastic, i just didn't know which person had the sense of humor, the translator or the translated.

>>56404037
Ah ok. Thank you for clarifying.

Alrighty, session 4 is fully typed up and about to be posted in this very post.

Session 4 begins directly after 3. Kenta and his father Eiichiro are raiding the Arachne Bank for gold, money and artifacts and are getting away with it too. The Okada Skullomaniacs are loading briefcases and sacks with their ill gotten gains when our party of heroes arrives ready to throw down. Akira was out of commision for this as she had just been backhanded the hell out by Eiichiro (his player unfortunately had to miss this session) so our heroes were down a man, lady, Akira was definitely a girl this session.
So it was Ito, Shizune, Futaba, A crossdressing Taro (in reality I had forgot to swap his sprite back to normal but we went with it) weilding Balmung and Jagasaki VS Okada Eiichiro (A captain of the Okada Syndicate), Okada Kenta (His attractive and cocky son) and something like twenty Skullomaniacs (Powered up Henshin soldiers, based off the first boss the party fought who got beaten up so badly that he got downgraded to a footsoldier). The fight should be tough for the party.

Then Eiichiro reached to his belt and said "Henshin". Getting his own transformation sequence, turning him into another Henshin villain in the form of "Henshin Villain, Captain SKULL". His costume is very picture related.

>>56404176
The fight broke out between the two parties. They have to deal with waves of skullomaniacs and both Okada fighters. Eiichiro and Kenta were both supernaturally powered up with their own henshin like devices. Kenta ran up to Shizune at an incredibly hihg speed, there was a lot of "H-he's fast!" moments as the two fought more directly, with Shizune managing to Judo flip him down with her GOD HAND B Talents.

Eiichiro runs up to Jagasaki and starts pummeling Jagasaki while taking attacks from the ghost, Ito and Taro while Futaba and Shizune took care of the Skullomaniacs and Kenta. Eiichiro was strong and he threw out a few lines like "PREDICTABLE!" and "This city belongs to me! You should just die!". There was a lot of back and forth between the main combatants and the Skullomaniacs came into unison and fired their "SKULL DAI BUSTER" which is a shock of phantasm energy generated through their suits at the party.
Soon enough the Skullomaniacs were dealt with and Shizune and Futaba had managed to take out Kenta. Ito was wounded but was patched up by Taro (who had taken the form of 'Magical Girl' as a mononoke). "Thanks for the healing" "Y-you too".

Eventually it's just Eiichiro Vs the party and Jagasaki powers up his finishing move:
'Jagasaki clenches his fist. Coils of black wind seep through the gaps in his fingers, spiraling in every direction. "I'll grind you to dust!" All at once the dancing energy ceases it's movement. "Dandan senboname!" Crying out, Jagasaki tosses the sphere into the air. With a downward arc the sphere of energy erupts into a shower of black spears.'
'The spears rain down without end. Impaling Eiichiro through his back mortally wounding him as he falls to the ground face first onto his stomach. The magical weaponry sticking out of his back as he lies there motionless.'

>>56404251
The party relaxes a little after their victory. Jagasaki laments that they were much too easy and Shizune chastises him by saying she would prefer if their enemies didn't get suddenly stronger. Ito surveys the area making sure his job was done, pilfering anything he could get from the now dead Yakuza leader, including his hat and scarf.

Meanwhile at the Ito household, Yuuna is minding her own business when she see's a figure approaching her. The Black Dahliah. (A prolific serial killer mentioned in Session 1, picture related)

Session 4 END

>>56404284
So that was session 4. VERY SHORT. It was pretty much a combat encounter but the events of this session lead into session 5. Which I am writing up right now, as well as any side bits that appear between then and now (though I believe 5 follows straight after 4), it's going to be a longer one.

In the mean time, I am happy enough to answer any story related questions.

>>56403371
Player here, since it was asked for, will elaborate on Akira/Ito's scene

Akira's quickly rushed to hospital following his close encounter of the sword kind. Ito shows up the next morning as soon as visitors are allowed in; Akira is still woozy from pain and drugs and lack of sleep because of the pain and drugs. To Akira's enormous surprise, the first thing out of Ito's mouth is an apology. Akira wonders if he's dreaming.

Ito's explanation is that since the ghost hunt was his idea and he dragged Akira along, he felt responsible for what happened. Therefore Akira should join his gang so Ito can make it up to him, offering such generous rewards as hooking him up with free (stolen) beer and helping him look tough and get a girlfriend. Akira decides he's definitely dreaming.

It's playing out awkwardly because Akira's not entirely all there and Ito's flip-flopping between trying to look apologetic and playing up his tough guy persona and Akira calls him on it. He says Ito needs to walk the walk before he talks the talk. Ito points out which one of them is in the hospital bed and which one isn't.

Then things get tense. Akira, his filters off because he's drugged up and still thinks he's dreaming, starts arguing with Ito saying that what matters is he finished the mission, that Ito couldn't have taken that same attack and lived, and all his talk of sticking together and looking out for each other is bullshit. Ito gets very angry about this.

/p1

>>56404318
pt. 2

Little bit of character history which hasn't yet come up in the game itself - Akira's family gave him a kind of elite child soldier upbringing, wanting to use him in the future for shady stuff (hasn't been elaborated on that I can rememer). Part of that is the whole "failure is not an option" creed which Akira has taken to heart - he's disposeable as long as "the mission" is a success. Ito, meanwhile, grew up without his father and has some pretty bad abandonment issues over the whole thing. He internally blames his dad for not actually being there for some of the hard times he and his mother lived through.

So, Akira's accusation there made Ito threaten to punch him back unconscious and leave Akira to the nurses. He doesn't go through with it since he still feels guilty, but ends up storming off in an angry huff. Akira turns over and drifts back off to sleep wondering if his family would be proud of his performance.

So far Ito hasn't brought it back up again because Akira hit a nerve there, and Akira thinks the whole thing is a dream so the set-up from that is still in-line to go off somewhere down the line.

How do you GMs organize archived conversations with your players and convert what you learned, brainstormed, r found out from them into useful notes?

It's something I am not good at.

>>56404176
>>56404198
>>56404251
>>56404284

Also I am submitting a complaint GM, you've twice missed out Ito's points-game quirk. Sometimes during fights or scenes Ito will loudly declare something like "150 points for knocking off the Yakuza bosses hat" (which Ito did, after Jagasaki had already rendered the man wearing it a shredded corpse). Nobody else takes these points seriously but will try to win anyway, if only to one-up Ito at his own game. This causes shenanigans later.

>>56404318
>>56404350

Thank you very much for laying out the scene and it's meaning.

It's both nice on it's own and as a supplement to the storytime.

I jot notes down on paper after the session. If I don't remember stuff at that point, it probably wasn't important. And if it was, the player will probably remember. And if neither the player nor I remember, then there isn't a problem.

>>56403387
Is there a setting for Kamigakari that you're meant to use, or is it more like GURPS?

>>56403387
Hey, maybe we should put that blurb in the OP?

This game sounds awesome. I really wish I could get my players to buy in, but there's some hardcore anti-animoo types among the group. Even if they agreed to play, they'd never get into the spirit of it.
In the end it'd be either kicking out a bunch of good friends, or playing a severely gimped game... dammit.

>>56404848
There's a default setting with a city described in the book. It also comes with a map.

wait I thought you said

>A crossdressing Taro (in reality I had forgot to swap his sprite back to normal but we went with it) weilding Balmung and Jagasaki

so Jagasaki was both being a weapon in Taro's hand, and getting punched by Okada?

>>56405447
That was a grammatical error on my part, I was listing off the party side which should have been "Taro weilding Balmung, and Jagasaki" VS Okada and so on. Poor grammar on my part basically, i'll watch out for that

>>56405447
>A crossdressing Taro (in reality I had forgot to swap his sprite back to normal but we went with it) weilding Balmung and Jagasaki VS Okada Eiichiro

Looks like just some missing grammar. It's Taro wielding Balmung, and Jagasaki, both fighting Okada

>>56404284
I'm torn between betting on Yuuna or Black Dahlia.

I guess it depends on how drunk Yuuna is, how dahlia fights and kills. also if dahlia has powers that make most attempts by mortals to harm her ineffective.

Ahhhhhh. That makes much more sense.

Ok here comes part 5 and it is a long one so I am dividing it up into two parts to give you guys something to read while I write up the rest.

SESSION 5 START.
We open directly after that stinger at the end of session 4. Akira wakes up from her slapping and meets up with Taira who formally introduces herself as Akira's big doting sister. Shizune almost refers to Akira as a boy but changes her reference to 'Akira-chan', Taira calls Akira her little sister. This is only going to add more to the levels of CONCERN over Akira's predicament.
They all introduce themselves to her, some begrudgingly (Jagasaki). They exchange niceties and Taira asks to be excused for a moment as she steps aside. The party hears a loud bang. It came from the direction of Taira, she had saw a straggling Skullomaniac, pulled out a pistol and blew his brains out. Taira returned to the conversation apologising as if she had done something incredibly trivial.
The party is momentarily shocked by this but are kind of unable to comment because the situation seems a bit too bizzare. The topic shifts to the Arachne Bank. Now this was the very same bank that Akira offered to put in a good word for Shizune to her mother to land her friend a job. Shirai has to break the news to Shizune:

"So, Akira tells me your looking for some kind of work. I'm not going to lie, my little sister here managed to piss off our mother something fierce, but i'm sure given enough time I might be able to find something for you"
Mitsuki Shizune : "... is that so"
Mitsuki Shizune gives a little smile but it's visible that she died a bit inside

>>56406077
She asks if Akira is alright after being roughed up by those Yakuza goons and Akira mentions that she has been through worse, like in that balmung fight. Futaba boops her on the head with a swift karate chop reminding her that she shouldn't be getting hurt in the first place. Taro laments his current state of dress, complaining about a stupid perverted sword.
Ito is about to bail on these losers when he feels something warm in his pocket. It's his phone, it looks like someone tried to call him but he was busy during the fight and didn't notice, the heat from the device burning his leg from the light. He flips his phone open and checks what it is, it's a voice mail message. He of course goes to listen to it but unfortunately for him it blasts out on loudspeaker. Delinquent B had previously sent Ito a mixtape over the phone and he simply forgot to turn off loudspeaker. It was a message from his mother, and boy was it embarrasing.
"Hi Daiichi, just leaving you a little message. You're little friend B-Kun dropped off some of the homework you've missed from school... actually from the looks of it, it's all the homework you've missed from school. Can you at least pretend to study a little for me. Anyways, keys under the mat like usual and we also got ourselves a bottle of that plum sake you were telling me about, i'm not going to drink it without you" Yuuna laughs a little. It's a nice laugh. "Still B-Kun was telling me about some friends you've been hanging around with but from what he's describing it doesn't sound like a little gang so that's a start. You should invite them over, we have leftovers that need to be eaten and i'm not getting any thinner" she pauses a little "Still come home safe, love you" The message ends there.

>>56406111
They rush into the living room to find Yuuna's body covered in blood with bloody scars all across her body and torn clothes from knife and scissor attacks, I didn't go into super detail because imagination makes this 1000 times worse.
Now allow ole Kansainon to interject into the story for a moment to tell you something. I am a pushover, a huge pushover even. I felt really bad for throwing Ito's cinnamon-bun of a mother into this situation, so in Discord I asked the player to roll me 1d100 and then 1d100 again. I didn't tell him what it was for. The effect of the first d100 was "What are the chances that she is still alive" and the second was "Is she alive". The player rolled like a 97 on the first roll leaving him only a 3 out of 100 chance of failing the second, he passes the second roll.
Her life signs are faint, but Yuuna is still alive. It looks like she was more tortured than murdered in this case. Taro immediately works some healing magic on her but Shizune takes a closer look and see's that she has been cursed in such a way that the wounds would be twice as painful and three times as slow to heal, she did not mention this to Ito. Our Orange haired delinquent was already calling an ambulance while the crew was helping Yuuna and looking for anything magically out of the ordinary. A bit of sifting around and the group can tell there is some kind of perception blocking magic in the air, no sound could be heard coming from within the range of the spell. All of this was rather nasty stuff and everyone was shaken up

>>56406111
WHOOPS. Looks like I missed this part

As you can imagine, Ito is rather red faced and goes to leave as quickly as he can. Shizune and Akira launch at this oppertunity, which was BASICALLY an invitation from Ito's mother to raid his fridge to eat leftovers, and Shizune could NOT turn down this feast (ALRIGHT AKIRA-CHAN, I GUESS IT CAN'T BE HELPTED IF YOU WANT TO GO) and Taro also feels a little peckish.
So the group basically invites themselves over to Ito's place for some free grub. Ito can't exactly turn them down because his mother gave the OK and he comments to himself that he is going to beat B-Kuns ass with his own headphones.

>>56406209
Where does this go in the chronology here? If i'm making screenshots, i wanna at least get the story in the correct order.

Ito didn't have much to do other than to pace, wait for the ambulance and to take inventory of anything that was stolen. On the surface, not a lot was stolen. It looks like the Dahlia started breaking and flipping shit open for the sheer fuck of it, the fridge was raided and clothes were strewn out. It all seemed so random, she had stolen some of Yuuna's clothes and underwear and one of Ito's uniforms. Some jewelry of sentimental value was stolen but there were three distinct things that were stolen that could not be forgiven.
First was the only picture of Ito's father taken from the family shrine. The picture was of Yuuna and her then boyfriend sometime after highschool, Yuuna looks a lot like a Yanki delinquent with her arms around Ito's father with a beer in her hand.
The second thing that was stolen was the family sword, a very ancient and powerful blade weilded by papa Ito. This pissed Ito off to no end.
Finally, and the absolute worst thing that was stolen. Yuuna's wedding ring. Taken right off her finger.

Shizune called up her friend in the Demon Hunters society: Goezome Hibana. They reached her and gave every detail they could give and Goezome had a big suspicion of who it could be. There was one last piece of information they gave to agent Goezome, and it was like one last final fuck you to Ito, the initials B.D . Goezome clued them in as she knew exactly who they were dealing with. She tried to convince them to stay away as it was too dangerous but as the scene lay there before them, it was VERY PERSONAL.

Pictured here is Agent Goezome Hibana because I don't think I have actually shown an image of her. This ends part one of a two parter for this episode, mostly because this is a looooong game with a side taking place inbetween this and the next session.

>>56406288
You could just slip it in at the end of that post for screencapping purposes, it was a silly mistake on my part really.

Futaba's mother's mononoke, named Taro, is a male kistune.


Futaba tried to corner Akira and make them admit they were a shape shifter. Akira claimed they were simply a master trap. So Futaba said "prove it, make a trap out of Taro".

Akira accepted the challenge and passed with flying colors.

Taro hadn't undressed from the Trap job Akira did on him by the time shit hit the fan, so rather than be recognized as himself in drag, Taro decided to take on a magical girl alter ego for the moment.

at least that's how I understand it. I'm not the GM or one of the players so I'm just going by trying to interpret what I've read.

>>56407054
None that i've heard of yet, but One of the storytime anons has done this weird Isekai type thing.

I wonder why Dahlia thinks fucking with the Ito family is a good use of her time.

I suppose we will find out.

>>56407285
Another player here
That's exactly what happened (though Taro HATED it)

>>56407285
Sorry, I just died last night. I am even still a little tired right now. I'll clear up some details. Basically everyone in the Onigata family (in this case Seika and Futaba) are paired with a mononoke partner. Futaba has Taro and her mother has an unnamed nine-tailed kitsune who took on Akira's battle damage from the balmung fight

As for Taro being a magical girl, Taro still being in trap form. That was a mistake on my part that stuck when I forgot to change the sprite back to normal, and funnily enough the best mononoke Futaba could use at the time was a "Magical Girl" so we went with that, at least on the mechanical level. I think we came up with the scenario that Balmung and Taro met while he was dressed up, Balmung in this case only letting Taro use him if he is dressed like that became a sort of short timed running gag.

The second part is coming after I get a little more sleep.

Ohhhh. I thought Taro and the mononoke that ate Akira's permanently crippling and near fatal wounds like they were a breakfast bagel were the same person.

I thought Taro was Futaba's mother's partner but being a doting... (wasn't sure if they were more like a father, a manservant who helped raise Futaba, or a manservant who grew up beside Futaba) something to Futaba indulged her in things like letting Futaba's friends dress him up, despite Futaba not being a child anymore.

CONTINUING ON

Ito is waving down the ambulance that is coming down the street. The party dispels the lingering perception blocking magic from the area which blocks both sight and sound for Innocents. I forgot to mention that the magic blocks sight which makes it very easy for a prolific killer to hide bodies in plain sight.

Shizune is talking to Goezome for advice on how to take on the Dahlia. Goezome refers them to the best mage they have in the Osakan division, an american witch by the name of Dorothy. She sets up a meeting between the group.

Yuuna is in a stable-ish condition and is hauled off in the ambulance wagon and the crew bides their time waiting for the meeting. Said meeting was outside a location of great power, a place were strong fighters gather on a daily basis:

The local convenience store.

Dorothy is a witch in the traditional sense, pointy hat, staves and potions. She is also a blond haired american so she stands out like a sore thumb even when she is not in her regalia. She sits outside drinking a soda and eating snacks she shoplifted using magic much to the chastisation of Akira and maybe Shizune but only because she actively worked at that store.

This witch is up for the job and all she needs to track down this killer is some essence or ether of hers. Every time the Dalia would kill someone the trail would go too cold to gather aether from but this crime had only recently happened, Jagasaki had formulated a bit of magic which captured the "scent" of the crime. This more or less gave the witch the tools she needed to track her. She had pinned down the Dalia's location to an old Catholic school building on the edge of town: Saint Augustine.

Shizune had "Other Obligations" and could not immediately join the group at the school (what those obligations are have since not been discovered even up until today, maybe we'll find out later as the game progresses)

Now this place was creepy and I described it as such. The area around the school was laden with the same thick perception altering magic which had a tinge of curse on it. Thankfully our party managed to get through it avoiding the would be curse that would make their bodies feel heavy like lead.
They were inside now hunting for the Dalia. The air is thick and heavy and there is the scent of blood in the air. They make their way through room after room looking for their mark when they come across bodies and bodies of all kinds in all manner of positions (not going to go into detail, use your imagination) it was several flavors of fucked.
And then Dalia did the thing villains always do, taunting the hero. She used magic to amplify her voice so it echoed throughout the school. "Didn't your mother tell you it was rude to come into somone's house without knocking" she cackles as if her joke was GENUINELY funny, you know the laugh.

>>56415691
Eventually they find the Dalia, she was standing in a room that was completely red top to bottom, she was ready to confront them alone. She gave them one last laugh and shouted "Knives!" and a bunch of floating knives materialized from beneath the floor and the fight began.
Something became apparent to them immediately, the Dalia was able to shift through the floor as if it were water and she were a shark acting like pseudo teleportation. It wasn't her sinking into the floor, she was turning her own body into blood and using that to course through the room at a fast speed, chucking knives all along the way.
Another thing that was apparent when Akira was cutting through her like ribbons was that she was not getting NEARLY as hurt as she should be. Her body was turning into blood on impact softening the blows. She even ended up teleporting behind characters like Akira whispering the incredibly creepy things a killer like her would say like "I'm just going to eat you up" and the like.
So here you have this bloodshifting psychopath shifting all across the room taking effectively half damage from every attack. From the corner of the room Shizune had arrived using magic to hide her presence. The party was up one more fighter and Shizune launched a bolt of lightning at her, her magic was electricity based. I'm not a scientist but blood is mostly water right? So Dalia had a weakness to electricty which severely weakened her status and power

>>56415707
The party was starting to do actual damage to her, she was bleeding her actual own blood. She launches her finishing technique at the party: RONDO OF BLOOD. She took ALL of the blood in the room and turned them into physical knives and launched them at the party. This hits half the party which are Jagasaki, Futaba and Shizune for BIG DAMAGE. Akira is still up and throws her blades at The Dalia wounding her down into the singles when Ito got in there and went for the finishing blow.
Ito takes his wooden sword and swings down, hundreds of of phatasm blades and crash down in a rain down on the Dalia and he finishes it with one blow of his wooden katana. The Dalia sits there, nothing has happened to her. She is already dead. She explodes in a gout of blood, she tries to reform but she just keeps exploding over and over again. It was as if every bit of pain she had inflicted on Innocents was being transfered back into her tenfold.

She was being crushed by the weight of her
sin.

Eventually she was reduced to nothing but a dead bloody puddle and there was a distinct clanging sound as Yuuna's wedding band hit the floor. Ito pockets the ring as the smell of blood lifts from the school and the air grows thinner. The party takes a look around the room and see's that the bodies that littered the room were not actual corpses but trapped manifestations of the spirits of the people killed by The Dalia.
The party eventually finds a room in the building just littered with stolen goods, including everything from Ito's house. This was the Dalia's motive as most of what was in this room (a lot of it being items with high sentimental value she would take just to fuck with people) was magical in nature, she had been targeting homes and families with magical heirlooms and weapons, casing them and killing the owners, Yuuna just happened to be unlucky enough to be the owner of her husbands godslaying sword. A sword that was now in the hands of one worthy to wield it.

Having defeated the villain of the day the party needed to rest, one thing led to another and Shizune's apartment was the destination of choice. You could not have picked a crappier place to hang out at, the place was like one room with a single futon and a small couch squeezed in.
I am going to mention something that I missed out before. Akira finally confronted Shizune about the I.D. She revealed a bit about her backstory of who she used to be back in Tokyo, the unfortunate event of her parents gambling mania forced her into Osaka and she changed her own name and through her poverty her appearance. Nothing changed between the two as Akira accepted her for who she was despite the secrets she had kept. Shizune was not ACTUALLY poor, she was living a life of poverty as she was saving money to buy her old home back in Tokyo, which is why she was working so hard all the time, doing odd jobs for the society and working crappy hours at the combini.
At Shizunes apartment the group just sat and chilled out for a bit, ordering pizza most of them would chip in for, most and drinking what was in the fridge which consisted of just bottled tap water. The Dalia would be the first in a line of foes the group would come up against and only more battles lay before them
And that is the end of the session, again I must sincerely apologise for the lateness in getting this out, sleep is a mistress of cruel origin. As always i'm open for questions and i'll be writing up the next part as we speak. Also I think from this point on i'm going to write them out as "episodes" as opposed to sessions, where an event can cover multiple session just as to make the story more fuller if you understand me.

Is there something like that for the different races?

GM asking for help here.

I'm having trouble figuring out how to handle describing a certain Anime trope. (The game I'm running is online and text only instead of voice.)

You know that thing in anime where some characters have a single upper tooth or tiny fang that pokes out when they smile or open their mouth?

I'm having tor trouble with that it in terms of visualization and in terms of giving it meaning.

Anybody got advice on how to utilize anime tropes that convey things about the character based on anatomical features using text?

>>56420737
Refer to it as a 'toothy grin?'
What do you want it to say about the character?

>>56420737
So, the Cute Little Fang, as said by TVTropes?

>>56417116
first.
>Is there something like that for the different races?

know I don't have anything like that. Sorry.

second.
I love that image. Fuckin Saved.

>>56420788
I suppose in the context of the character I'm currently thinking of it conveys a sense of determination, fighting spirit, and danger. They are generally someone who is quick to smile and never say die in the face of danger, for better or worse.

>>56421325
yes. or at least that's part of it.
"These indicate, generally, that the character is mischievous, slightly hostile, or a trickster, but not actually "bad." " is a bit of a thin description

>>56421857
Unfortunately, Cute little fang is about the best descriptor your gonna get if you wanna be concise about the fang itself.

You'd probably have the best time trying to describe the smile as a whole than describing the fang specifically. Like "A beaming grin"

>>56421727
There isn't one for the races that i'm aware of. Each race is pretty capable in all area's though, so having one as concise as that would be difficult. There's also a fair amount of overlap on some of the more mundane stuff.

>>56422726
Ah. so describe their expression in general. only describe their tooth when you have reason to describe the distinctive details of their face, like when describing them for the first time.

>>56422775
Yeah, thats the gist of it.

>>56415721
Nerd playing Shizune here
She almost died that one fight, and Jagasaki went medieval on Dalia because of that, which was actually somewhat out of character for him at the moment (he even princess-carried her to the hospital after the fight).
The meaning of it gets revealed through bits and pieces later on.

>>56415721
>The Dalia sits there, nothing has happened to her. She is already dead. She explodes in a gout of blood, she tries to reform but she just keeps exploding over and over again. It was as if every bit of pain she had inflicted on Innocents was being transfered back into her tenfold.

A lot of this doesn't make sense.

>>56424444
Well have you ever seen that thing that tends to happen in anime and by extension samurai films

The samurai goes up against his opponent and delivers a quick cut or a combination of attacks, slowly walks away and sheaths his sword. There is the clink of the sword sheathing and his opponent is either cut in half, or explodes or what have you

Basically it was something rather similar, he had delivered the blow and she had a delayed reaction before exploding into gouts of blood.

if you want an anime equivalent to what happened, this might not be the best pick but Lust from full metal alchemist getting melted to bits by fire kind of fits.

>>56415721
You say that the dalia's motive was to steal magical without explaining why she wanted to.

Nothing presented in the Dalia's behavior so far in this story suggests her motive was to aquire equipment or money or some higher motive other than to continue having fun killing people, possibly especially powerful people.

Like I'm all for it being revealed that a character has more complicated goals or reasons for doing things than it initially seems, but there's no hints at that before, and no explanation for this new information.

>>56424561
I'm not going to lie it wasn't the best thing i've done as a GM, I think it was the first time I tried to use a "serial killer" kind of character so I definitely missed a few marks here and there.

A lot of her character was "Kills for fun", it's very two dimensional but that's what the character was played as. As for her motivations, well there is some stuff that comes up later which sort of links in with that, overall i'm not super proud of how it went down looking back at it but the actual in game reaction and experience was decently good in a kind of "You had to be there" way.

>>56424625
That is understandable. Thank you for explaining.

There are no side straps on the bottoms she is wearing.

I guess they are either held on by spirit gum, or else magnets attracted to either metal implants or surface piercings.

What are Yama-uba?
The Wikipedia article on them is a mess.

>>56426887
Honestly speaking, its hard to say. The tales of them are all over the place.

The basis for them are seemingly frail old women who live in the mountains, and they seem to have many supernatural abilities. However, to actually say what they are is difficult.

Frankly speaking, just take it as "Weird old monster lady with weird powers". Thats about the best you are gonna get.

Here's one. I'm not sure if this is closer to "In an actual gang" or "Delinquent" but it should work.

Sweet.
Got motorcycle gangs. Or better still combat from motorcycle.

(I'm more interested in armed mounted rider vs armed footslogger. But combat where both parties are motorcycle or at least Vehicle mounted would be appreciated too.)

Thank you players in this storytime .

You guys are adding a lot of life to this story that makes it more interesting.

>>56415740
Why did the party pick Shizune's apartment? Did she offer?

I can see why Ito's home would be a poor choice, also why Akira may not be in a position to host guests (mom is mad and who knows what secrets would have been revealed).

Perhapse Futaba didn't want to visit one of her families properties with a group looking fresh from a violent bloodbath because it could have undesired effects on her idoling work?

>>56433403
We collectively decided it was funnier to cram into Shizune's apartment, so that's what we did. Bullying Shizune is a favorite pastime in the party

Kansainon is a little scatterbrained (if you couldn't tell by now) so I can re-run that scene a little.

Everyone turned up at Shizune's apartment, regardless of how she felt about it. Jagasaki had to take a smaller, more human form I don't have a picture for because of the sudden lack of space. Ito immediately raids Shizune's fridge, comments on how empty it is and reaches for a tub of ice cream. Jagasaki threatens him with a swift and violent death if he so much as touches it so Ito opts to order pizza instead.

Pizza arrives, party banters a bit. At some point during the Dahlia fight Jagasaki acknowledged Shizune as his "master" so Ito asks if this is her gang headquarters; Akira and Onigata mention it's not very well defended. Shizune starts to explain she set up magic barriers before realizing what she's been dragged into implicitly agreeing she's now a rival gang leader to Ito. She tries to backpedal but it's too late, Ito won't take no for an answer.

Shizune changes topic by telling everyone about her family history and real name as described by GM. Onigata and Akira offer sympathy, Ito comments on how parents can be unreliable. The atmosphere starts getting awkward so the party members peter off a little, Onigata and Akira returning home and Ito just driving off without any particular destination in mind.

>>56434883
Also it's probably obvious by this point but there's at least three players as well as the GM in these threads. I'm trying to hold off on posting to save circlejerking our campaign too much as well as not steal the fun from the GM, but I'm happy to elaborate if people ask

how was the approach to the Dahlia fight presented?

by that i mean the approach to the school,

getting past the magical defenses,

the horror show inside and the villain making her presence known by voice

the build up toward and entrance into the blood room

and the villain making their in person appearance.

>>56439335

Whoo, okay

Well, it's worth saying now that Kansainon plays things fast and loose. A lot of scene transition are almost literally "you all go and meet up at X place", which is what happened here. From there we got a quick idea of the place and atmosphere - it's a disused old school building, boarded up and rusting over on the outside (picture here >>56415691 was used as the background image), but as we got closer there was a magical field over the whole thing. The field made our movements very weighted, but we passed a couple checks to just power through and never found out what it did.

Immediately through the barrier it stunk so much of blood you could taste it and Dahlia started projecting her annoying voice from somewhere and taunted us. Inside the building every other classroom had corpses lying around in various states of dismemberment. We didn't examine them too closely but even from a brief look there was a lot of different types of torture at play. Akira F and Onigata were disgusted, Jagasaki's predator instincts kicked in and made him hungry for battle, and Ito just made angry noises and booted open door after door chasing Dahlia

She was definitely moving from room to room somehow (we had a magic map that was locked onto her courtesy of Dorothy) and we caught up to her in the staffs break room. She must've been baiting us there because there was a thick layer of blood across the floor and no bodies to be found. In more or less simultaneous actions she launched a volley of floating knives, scizzors and razorblades while giving us a good ol' crazy laugh, at the same time Ito and Jagasaki jumped straight into the attack. Dahlia threw out some crazy speak during the fight, including how "wet" we were making her. Shizune just sorta showed up at one point (appearence checks are a game mechanic) and figured out the blood in the room wasn't human blood and it was some kind of elemental affiliation for her. Not quite a godhunter power but close.

>>56439998
Our party is hilariously powerful - Akira can do literally hundreds of damage if all his/her attacks connect - so even Dahlia's weird blood logia powers weren't protecting her from the hurt. She dropped her boss nuke at this point - all the mystery blood in the room sucked up into a blood tornado, then shot blood-knives in every which direction. Jagasaki and Onigata took some notable damage, Shizune took some hefty damage, Ito and Akira waltz through it. One of Ito's powers is 99 Regalia, which lets him make physical attacks at range - based on the fluff, we think this works in a Gate of Babylon sort of way by summoning up spiritual copies of his main hand weapon and firing them at the target.

So this is more or less how Ito throws out the killing blow - bolstering his "special technique" (really just a regular attack which he makes with particular enthusiasm), Ito summons his spirit sword power and effectively pincushions Dahlia where she stands. Her blood bursts out of her, the remnants of the attack keeping the wounds from sealing themselves and she dies on her feet, still laughing and staring him in the face. A short while later she just dissolves, and all the "fake" blood starts to vanish and the smell with it... Mostly.

Post-battle roundup was just collecting any relevant loot like Ito's stolen shit, making sure nobody was dying and getting the Demon Hunter's Society to clean the rest up

>>56439998
>>56440230

That does sound fast and loose.
was most of it just "there is X, it is Y."
"There are partially dismembered bodies posted and laid around in this room, it's as fucked up as you would imagine."

or is more detail given?

if more detail is given in just a few places, what logic usually determines where those few detailed are spent?

I find these skullomaniacs to be humerus.

That's because lances are meant for use on horseback. They are a long have reinforced spike that you drive into some unfortunates with the weight of man, equipment, and horse behind it.

It's not meant to be used on foot.

What kinda talents would you pick for a vampire Darkstalker?

>>56454976
Honestly, pretty much all darkstalker talents fits a vampire. Especially if you fluff the shadows to be bats instead.

>>56455131
Not the same Anon who asked the above question.

How would you do Big Band from Skullgirls in this system?

this assumes you've played skullgirls and are familiar with big bang's abilities and lore.

>>56455976
Unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with skullgirls. If you could describe the key points of his abilities, that would be helpful.

>>56455976
Cyborg for sure. Maybe dragon carrier?

>>56455976

Big Band has at once both tremendous mobility and tremendously limited mobility.

I'm not talking about how he'd be helpless if you separated the organic parts of his body from the cyborg parts (he's entirely dependent on them so it would be more like dismembering someone than taking someone out of a wheelchair)

but that his body is a bit awkard on foot (though he's does a lot to make it not look that way with practise) but is also able to supplement "normal" locomotion with air just assisted "skating" as a substitute for running and some form of "possbily partially magic based" powered flight [Tympani Drive as well as the jet/rocket engine cluster transformation he uses in some of his prematch and victory animations and in at least 1 story mode cut scene].

these alternative means of motion are both powerful and limited. I suppose that can be something a rules lite system (like Kamigakari) can handle well by delegating negotiating the finer points between the player and GM, and a very crunchy system can handle by fully stating out, while systems in the middle ground kind of just struggle.

>>56457215
Sounds like a penalty to movement scores and a 1/combat Shift: [Flight] ability instead of a standard cyborg one.

How viable does Dragon Carrier B and Legacy User B sound to you guys? I'm messing around and theorycrafting characters, and managed to get to around 15 armour and 18 barrier, which combined with protection abilities seems pretty strong.
But, I'm worried about getting instantly killed by enemies that halve or ignore armour, and lack of any damage.

>>56457612
Combining those two would be super viable. Even if you get hit by enemies that can half armour and barrier, there are a bunch of weapon effects and abilites you can use to mitigate that damage, not only that but Legacy B lets you straight regenerate 20hp at the cost of [2] which is insane, plus Legacy User is a style that just gets better as you go along.

Like, could I use the lore and information to run a game like in Hong Kong? USA? Ireland?

>>56457871
The game focuses on japan, but the lore is applicable to most of the world. You're going to have to make up some stuff on your own, but there's no reasons you couldn't play Kamigakari in L.A. if you wanted to.

Time for Episode 6. In this one our group is being called together to assemble at the Demon Hunters Society HQ by Aent Goezome. Everyone gets a congratulation on defeating the Black Dahlia (I've been flipping back and forth between Dalia and Dahlia because I can't into english). However Goezome had an ulterior motive for inviting everyone into the Osakan HQ.
The Demon Hunters Society in Osaka is spread thin on a budget of magical peanuts meaning what they do have access to they have to milk it for all it's worth. With a new group of powerful up and coming Godhunters in this building, it would be foolish not to put them on the payroll. Did I use the word payroll? Well Godhunting is it's own reward anyhow, they'd get to keep anything that falls of anything they kill, they just have to wave around DHS badges and report in for meetings and such.
It takes a bit of convincing but everyone eventually bites and joins up and the rest of the team is introduced. Sarah Boskonovich, the chief medical officer. She is russian but she is a bit "hands on", she is the most likely to say 'ara ara' but in Russian, she has fun teasing Goezome.

Next up is Masamune Johnny, a sleazy looking tv salesman who has turned quite a profit as an artifical regalia dealer on contract with the demon hunters society. He makes a point of handing out his business card to these high school kids.
Now that the group is officially part of the society, Goezome can now clue them in on what she knows about what is going on and what the mission of the DHS is in Osaka. Aramitama have been around in the human world since Eve ate of the forbidden fruit. Their existance is part and parcel for every day life but for some reason in the city of Osaka, their activity is much more prevelant. This does not just mean attacks are more frequent. If an aramitama gets inside the mind of a human, it can warp that human into an inhuman monster and go berserk. It can also promise the granting of wishes if the host kills a certain number of people, turning them insane and monsterfying them upon their realisation of what they've done. Something is different about this in Osaka, Aramitama and Humans have formed some kind of symbiotic relationship where humans are able to harness the powers of the Aramitama, giving them something like a [FALSE AWAKENING] turning them into something akin to False Godhunters
The Demon Hunters Society has chosen to give these Aramitamized Godhunters the title of Яeverse Godhunters. I was to be believed that Dalia was one of these Яeverse Godhunters where she drew her blood magic from that particular pool of magic. It is also unknown to the society if these such Яeverse Godhunters are working together. That is more or less a mission for our group to unveil.

Dorothy later arrives to this meeting. Now I did mention Dorothy was American and thus can speak perfectly normal english but her Japanese is just fine. Shizune has never ACTUALLY met her as she was busy during the first meetup with Dorothy, Shizune can perfectly understand english. Key word understand. Dorothy pops into the room and says in english "Is there a Party going on in here or something". Shizune takes the oppertunity.

Itsu nawt ah paru-tih. Harro. Ai amu Shizune - ano-ta meji. Wi wiru bi comu-pa-ni-onsu. Naisu two miitu yuu

As Dorthy gives Shizune a stare that I can not describe accurately right now, she ensures her that her engrish is fine but she really doesn't have to, no really, she really doesn't have to. With It took Goezome two hours of grueling paperwork but the fruits of her labor were complete and the group was now 100% certified Demon Hunter Society material.

As of right now it was just a case of investigating supernatural occurances and waiting for the call from the DHS but Shizune ended up staying after hours. She was taking full advantage of the free coffee at the HQ, she was caught off guard by Akira who I believe was a girl, it's hard to keep track of things, I think he was a guy during the meeting, again we flip every session but sometimes if the episode drags into another session Akira will stay the same but thats besides the point. From that cup of coffee Shizune ended up spilling her financial woes onto Akira, revealing her budget-kaiji parents bringing the family to ruin. Akira pointed out that her family too were once great and powerful until they lost it all, but they'll get it back just like how Shizune should (If Akira's pep talk to Shizune right now is to be belived). The Shirai family more or less lost their power by fucking up and failing to protect a sacred place of power, where was this sacred place of power? Syria, or in Shizunes words "Sh-Shiria!"
Akira admits to Shizune that this isn't her true appearance. Shizune says that if people don't like Akira how he is then they can bite it (she of course STILL thinks he is a crossdresser). Nobody has seen Akira's true form but its supposedly really scary. It's kind of a touching momen. Akira comments on Shizunes english and how, "special" it sounds, this causes Shizune to perk up her chest and brag, i'll this one to her.
"Well, I had the best education money could pay for, and I certanly needed to learn it to read some foreign documents about magical investigation. I remember in school I always raised my hand in the English class and the teacher would say 'No, it's not necessary' - probably because they knew i'd get it right and wanted to give someone else the spotlight. It's very difficult to be as skilled in it as I am"

"Dah yuu wishu somu kohii ?"

Akira does not crush this precious little moment.

After the two go their seperate ways, Shizune meets with her mystic companion "Daw-thee". Since Shizune is a mage proper it would be wise for her to be introduced to the DHS's Mages division. Here we learn a bit more about Dorothy. Dorothy is more or less a Heroic Spirit of sorts, having gone on an adventure with a scarecrow, a tin man and a lion to meet a powerful wizard. This of course being all a sham, Dorothy actually ended up killing and taking on the mantle of "The Wicked Witch of the West" and all the power that comes with that, just hearing the word 'Oz' pisses Dorothy off. In her own words though it is a 'long story', one much to long to talk through on a walk to the shabby door that houses the mages division. Shizune asked how many member strong is this division. Four, incuding Shizune.
The two enter into a smoke filled room where they meet two more mages. One is a young asian looking man, dressed in a menacing and flowing kind of robe/kimono thing, he is smoking a pipe that would be fit on an older and perhaps more devilish woman. This man is Furiten and he gives off the aura of a demon. Juxtaposed next to him is a small white haired girl by the name of Mei-Ling, chinese and very young to be a demon hunter, she more or less keeps Furiten in check. Furiten is sizing up Shizune but is chastised by Mei for being rude and how they can't be 'picky', this is their first impression and all that can really be said is 'they're trying'. This is another stamp in the DHS book and the division is up a member.
You might be asking to yourself "Boy this is pretty Shizune centric" and you'd be right, all of this happened between sessions and it's stuff I kind of wanted to knock out in game but didn't have time to. 'Oh okay, so I guess we're done here then' NOPE. We have one more, but don't worry. It has Jagasaki.

Oh Jesus yeah thanks, it's like 7am in the morning so i'm a little drowsy. I'll try and remain vigilant.

This taking place almost directly after, Shizune is on her way to the train station where she meets her room-mate/heirloom Jagasaki. Shizune comments to Jagasaki that Furiten reminded her of him but he does not entirely recall anyone from his past much like him. This is where Jagasaki is asked a question he can really ponder over, how does he find the modern world? Jagasaki muses that humans will always be humans, but if Shizunes ancestors could see the world today, well he thinks they'd be happy.
Turns out Jagasaki has served Shizunes family for years, more specifically the Higeshima clan. They were brave and foolish, Jagasaki comments that 'he never stood a chance against her'. Shizune is giving this demonic looking sword spirit those storybook eyes and he spills the beans. His previous master back then was Higeshima Himeko, a woman who was stubborn and brave in all the right places, and he loved her. Shizune actually reminded him of her. He doesn't go into it, but her story doesn't have a happy ending.

Jagasaki shows some concern for Shizune asking if her wounds from the Dahlia fight have patched up. This whole instance was the first time the two have truly communicated with eachother in a heart to heart manner. The train car they are both on is empty and Shizune offers to renew their vows formally as a show of the respect between bonded servant and master. Jagasaki reintroduces himself to her as Jagasaki, the former demon-god king of Shikoku, bound in the service to the Higeshimas. Shizune introduces herself to him as Higeshima Seika, future heir and guardian of the Twelve Southern Treasures. They both make a formal promise to serve one another as equals.
The fact that the train car was empty was important because this is twelve flavours of embarrasing for anyone to look at.

As for detail given on dismembered bodies. Ehhh. Well I said it looked pretty grotesque with bodies in all manner of position, but I did not go into detail. I'm sure the players could use their imaginations for how graphic the scene should be. Though really they weren't actually bodies, more like trapped spirits stuck in these sort of perverted grotesque forms.

Takao and Atago's problem is they don't believe in pants and don't believe in skirts long enough to count as much more than a belt.

Atago just hides it better she has a long coat and dark pantyhose.

I do agree she's pretty far up their on the scale though as far as Kancolle goes.

So the reason dahlia didn't hospitalize anyone in the party is she underestimated their offensive output, and didn't booby trap the school or otherwise press her home field advantage enough?

>>56468809
>>56471622

To be fair to kansainon, Dahlia didn't know we were coming and she did badly injure Shizune and Jagasaki. Jagasaki is a regenerator though so he shrugged it off then princess-carried Shizune off-scene. The pizza part at her apartment was several hours after the fight, when she'd been bandaged up and the rest of us had found nothing noteworthy in Dahlia's hideout. Also the party is way overpowered and Kansainon has to stack several hundred HP onto enemies just so they don't get one-shotted. Akira alone can do something like 250-ish damage.

I'm guessing that's a translation error.
Fool's gold is Iron Pyrite.

>>56478880
I can't remember exactly where in the book it says this, but the fools gold in kamigakari is different to the fools gold known as pyrite.

The idea is the same that they are gold looking substances with no value to them regularly, but fools gold in kamigakari is capable of being utilized by godhunters to strengthen and produce equipment and other effects.

Its basically pyrite though. weird supernatural pyrite with neat supernatural effects, but pyrite nonetheless.

Don't think on it too hard.

>>56478501

Its an analogy anon.

They throw corpses into hell as fuel to keep it hot so that sinners thrown down there are properly punished.

This became somewhat moot when the bird there ate a sun god bird, absorbed its power, and became nuclear, so she could power hell all on her own.

>>56494103
Fuckin nice. Have fun anon.

>>56496195
Was it just a regular mononoke?

>>56497363
Yeah it was. Textbook lv 5 demon hunter.

>>56498301
In that case, yeah. its possible.

What are we considering toe to toe? Like, somewhat even? Or a shut out win for the level 1 player?

>>56498444
Pretty much straight out win. At first it looked kinda dicey cause if the hunters damage output, but the player managed to tank and heal through the damage with his titan armour and legacy user b skills.

>>56499302
Now that i think on it, shouldn't there be an issue with the player having both A and B at level 1?

The titan armor is 3000 gold, and at level 1 you only get around 5000, if memory serves.

That means his godslayer A talents wouldn't be usable since all of those cost 3000-4000 a piece.

How was he even dealing damage?

>>56499442
As a separate thought though, it is entirely possible for a Legacy user to go up against stronger base mononoke due to their Weapon or armor being significantly more powerful from the outset due to immediately getting both a Diamond marked arms system upgrade and two Godforged talents, if applicable. On top of this, mononoke health tends to stay somewhat low due to the boss and aramitama templates giving a minimum of 100 HP each.

If he was stalling through titan armor, i could see him winning out in the end. Mononoke in and of themselves aren't terribly tanky through health pool, and their barrier/armor is pretty low usually. This is because Aramitama and boss templates can be stacked, turning the boss into a massive damage sponge, without even taking into account talents for them.

>>56499442
He was using a hand and a half regular sword. I was kind of unsure if the rules lock you out of using specific legacy user type abilities if you dont have that specific regalia. All it says in the godforged rules is that if you dont have any regalia you cant use legacy user abilities, never mentioned the type of godforged you use.

>>56499637
Thats actually put in the blurb at the top of each style. For legacy user A its

>TYPE A
This Type controls weapon-style [Godforged Regalia]. You must be [Equipped] with a [Godforged Regalia: Weapon] in order to use [Legacy User: Type A] Talents.

As another example, Arc slayer talents require you to be equipped with a weapon to use their talents.

>>56499714
No wonder i felt that something was off. Thanks for the clarification.

>>56500262
Keep in mind, A and B usually use the same equipment, but some B styles will differ on that front from their A style.

Make sure you know who needs to use what item for what talent. For example, Dragon carriers need a specific accessory.

>>56500262
If you feel like things are too easy, don't be afraid to buff the monsters a bit. A little more health, a pinch more armor/barrier, maybe have a few of them attack at the same time. You might even consider using the aramitama or boss templates on some smaller enemies at some point.

Baseline mononoke are notoriously squishy because the base form is more or less a mook to be beat up. They are the regular enemies, with aramitama and bosses acting as the big bads.

What's your favorite weapon type?
Hammers for me, since it covers both unarmed combat and just smashing things.

>>56504758

>>56509553
What are you trying to do with it?

>>56509553

Like the other anon said, depends on what you want to do with it.
But, Dark Hunter A and Elder Mage B seem like a strange combination. If you want to go full utility, Dark Hunter B is better with a lot more movement options. Don't forget to check the expansions for other potential styles or races btw.

It's all up to you what kinda character you want to make though, and for the most part everything's viable.

>>56504758
Polearms are my go-to weapon choice, but sometimes I want a big ol' sword or gun.

>>56510023
Dark hunter A specifically allows you to make a full move and still use your magical and ranged abilities, so thats probably why he chose A.

>{Combat Stats} | 16 | 10 | 5 | 6 | 5
>{Fixed Values} | 23 | 17 | 12 | 13 | 12

>HP: 92
>Initiative: 15(7)
>Armor: 6
>Barrier: 5

The rest of its entry is already filled out, so these stats should more or less work.
