You are Shee Hyul, rebel leader, psychic and Reunited. Your world is ruled by inhuman creatures and this has gone on far too long, it’s time to fight back.

As the Rainyas pin you to the floor, and the new power offered by the Ichor settles within you, you realise that with this power, you could visit your father...

Kaelyn pushes open your bedroom door and sees the pile of Rainyas atop you and says in a teasing voice “really? Didn't you two get enough of that last night? I'm impressed at your stamina but really, can the bedroom floor take it?”

One of the Rainyas says defiantly to Kaelyn “We're going to be married, we can do what we want where we want how we want!” Though you can feel her bodies heat up as she blushes.

You can't really see Kaelyn, Rainyas...rear end is in the way so you don't see how she reacts, all you hear is a pause, then she says in a genuinely happy tone “congratulations! Both of you, I'll tell the others!” and then she leaves at a run.

“Go to Hell Kae!” yells Rainya in a voice mixing with happiness and outrage and her bodies start scrambling off you “this is my news, I'll tell everyone” and most of the Rainyas run after Kaelyn, irrespective of their state of undress.

You turn to the two Rainyas remaining behind “you know” you say carefully “I could just tell everyone telepathically...”

Rainya yawns “yeah but this way I get to beat Kaelyn, my way.”

Old thread

You recall the last fight between those two didn't go so well.

Once the morning madness has finished, what powers will you be experimenting with first?

>Psychic powers (which?)
>Gifts (which?)
>Your locket
>Allies powers (who? which?)
>Other (?)

Please pick only 1, you can choose others later.

It is assumed you are trying to learn new stuff, if you want to boost existing ones, please say.

15 minute vote as OP of new thread.
>>
>>43758562

The body of water created by Oceanic Reality qualifies (just big enough).
>>
>>43758633
>Your locket
>>
>>43758633
First I wanted to try using psychic powers to manipulate some non-psychic energy. See if we can force anything to wiggle a bit. Gifts, our own aspects, the realm, chaos, champion powers, whatever. Any and all of them.

After that
>Allies powers (who? which?)
Exposing Rainya to a void field and fucking around with Dev getting Electro+Magneto.
>>
>>43758633
>Psychic powers (which?)
Try to develop new ones
>>
>>43758716
>fucking around with Dev getting Electro+Magneto.
Still risky and inefficient.
>>
>>43758633
> Try to let Rainya learn from out void powers
>>
>>43758739
Not really. The extra cost from forcing is still there even if we get all the prereqs. It only goes away if we get a tutor. And if we do get the prereqs then it goes away. If it's really bad he can just hold off until we retake the facility.
>>
>>43758762
Or we could upgrade Artifice and make awakening pods.
>>
>>43758633
>>Your locket
>>
>>43758633
>>43758740
Second.
>>
>>43758633
>Psychic powers (which?)
Developing new ones and exposing Rainya to Void Field
>>
>>43758786
Except we can't. Shee doesn't have enough xp to get to that point right now.
>>
>Marry me
>oh btw lets go skinny dipping in existential horror made manifest
Shee too smooth.
>>
>>43758852
Rainya is pretty kinky when it comes to that stuff, Shee just knows what her girl likes.
>>
closing and counting
>>
ok, appears to be a 3-way tie, so breaking in favour of psychic powers

Please check my count of course
>>
>>43758910
There were two for psy first and two for Rainya first and one that had both Rainya and psy first. So yeah. Locket had 2 as well.
>>
>>43758910
Isn't Rainya+Void Powers ahead with 4?
>>
>>43758937
I asked for 1 option to be chosen, and one only.

For votes listing multiple thinghs to be done, I took the first thing they voted for.

I can call for a revote if players would like.
>>
>>43758965
>I asked for 1 option to be chosen, and one only.
Fair enough.
>>
>>43758965
It works. We can play hide and seek with Rainya and Lirael next. That's a valid way to develop shade powers, right? Hide and seek in an area steeped in magical freak fog?
>>
>>43759012
it could work

Not anymore. Maybe on the first few threads, but Shee became a mutated thing after so many "gifts".
>>
>>43759116
Her face is still the same actually, so its still accurate in that respect.
>>
>>43759116
Disguise still looks like that. And her face still looks like that most of the time anyway unless she has her fangs out.
>>
>>43759137
Her skin's grey without her illusions up because of Body of the Titan.

Won't matter post ascension anyway. She'll just look like whatever she wants then.
>>
>>43759164
Her skin isn't grey, it has a very slight greyish tinge to it. So still mostly accurate.

>20 - Intelligence and Willpower bonus increases to +20; Psychic Energy bonus increases to +100; You gain the ability Sojourn of the Forsaken Soul: Your regeneration is no longer constrained by the flesh. Unless the soul is destroyed as well, the vampire can move their soul to any point within 10,000 miles per point of willpower modifier they have upon death and begin regenerating, or wander as a spirit for a time before settling on a spot. Regenerating from total physical destruction takes far longer than normal, with the base time being 10 years. Regenerating in an area of high magical confluence, particularly anywhere strongly tied to psionics, the void or other forces aligned to the nature of the Vi Hyul can hasten this greatly, as can donations of psychic energy, magical power (in any shape) or blood.

Jesus Fucking Christ.

Anyone else feel like rushing the hell out of Bloodline? Because that's amazing. We just need 3 more favor with Baalzamon. We've got some good opportunity with Garrax and Kulrathe, who are shits anyway and need to be dealt with.

You throw some clothes on and head down from your realm where you slept last night, into the main residence. You catch up with Kaelyn and the Rainyas in the corridor just outside everyone elses rooms as the Rainyas try to weigh Kaelyn down and she strides onwards, pushing forwards despite their presence.

“Hey everyone!” bawls out Kaelyn at the top of her voice “Shee and Rainya mfmfmfmmfffff!” Rainya manages to silence her momentarily with hands across her mouth.

A half-asleep Dev peers round his bedroom door “what?” he says. You hear Lirael rising too. Its time to bring this to a close.

“Once we've got breakfast on” you tell Dev “I'll tell you.”

You help the Rainyas drag a protesting Kaelyn back upstairs.

XXX

Once breakfast is cooking you break the good news to Lirael and Dev.

“Congratulations!” says Dev. With a mug of coffee in him, and bacon cooking on the stove, he's much better able to process the news.

Liraels eyes go very wide and then she squeals in joy and rushes at Rainya, hugging her hard “sister!” she yells out enthusiastically as Rainya returns the hug and pats her atop the head.

“So” says Kaelyn, as you hand out the plates “big romantic date planned in light of this? Going anywhere exotic?”

“Well I'd thought I could use today to practise my psychic powers” you explain.

Dev starts to laugh as Kae says “seriously? Seriously!?” She looks at Rainya in horror.

Rainya just smiles and pats you on the arm “if that's what Shee wants to do” she says in a contented voice “that's what we're doing today.”

Lirael chimes in “can I help?”

“Best not kiddo” says Dev “lets leave them alone to 'practise psychic powers'” he chuckles “I'll take you shopping” he offers to Lirael as she starts to pout.

“I think I'll come with you” declares Kaelyn “I doubt I could be around these two romantics without losing it” she adds under her breath “practise psychic powers?!”
>>
>>43759415
At least I would heavily suggest getting FoL9 to get 4Ranks in Vi Hyul, also so Lirael can buy 4 ranks in it.
>>
After breakfast you and Rainya head up to your realm, it'll be the safest place to try and develop your psychic abilities without a teacher – you can repair the landscape after all.

So which power will you be trying to gain?

>Clairvoyance
>Psychokinesis
>Chaoscraft
>Chemokinesis
>Electrokinesis
>Magnetokinesis
>Psyche Shifting
>Summoning

Shadowcraft is not an option. Gaining a Prestige skill without the prerequisites will result in flaws, I pick the flaws.

And using which Aspect?

>Impossibility
>Corruption
>Family

Note that this with automatically warp the power towards that Aspect, same as it does for Gifts
>>
>>43759456
>Electrokinesis
>Corruption
>>
>>43759456
>Psyche Shifting
>Corruption
>>
>>43759456
I wanted to try to go for Primal with Corruption in hopes of a teacher. But if we can't do that then.

>Summoning
>Impossibility

I'm hoping, really hoping, that this results in void entity summoning.
>>
>>43759456
>Psychokinesis
>Impossibility
>>
>>43759456
>Psychokinesis
>Impossibility
I'd rather have the significant versatility and power upgrade present in Psychokinesis than the unknown, inherently flawed Electrokinesis. That's Sireyi's thing anyway.
>>
>>43759519
you can try for Primal later
>>
>>43759456
>Psychokinesis
>Impossibility
>>
>>43759484
>>43759527
The entire point of electrokinesis was to get it for Dev. This is for Shee. No reason to go for electro here.

>>43759521
>>43759527
And seriously, Psychokinesis?
>>
>>43759519
>I wanted to try to go for Primal with Corruption in hopes of a teacher.
Primal is not a prestige power.

>>43759456
>Psyche Shifting
>Impossibility
>>
>>43759456
>Psychokinesis
>Impossibility
>>
>>43759456
>>43759521
changing to
>Summoning
We already got the Prereqs for that and Psyche Shifting don't we?
>>
>>43759579
Nope. Chaoscraft is the only Prestige we have the prerequisites for, since we lack Master Telepathy.
>>
>>43759579
Telepathy Master, Psychoport Adept.
>>
>>43759591
What? We don't have enough Telepathy powers?
Thats weird as hell.
>>
>>43759456
Which do we meet the prerequisites for? I'm tempted to go Family Summoning but not for any good reason.
>>
>>43759554
The fuck is wrong with Psychokinesis? It's got flight, moving heavy shit WITH YOUR MIND, as a free action at high levels, mind bullet, ice AoE, fire AoE, Telekinetic weapons are pretty good at base and we might be able to make them a Focus...

>>43759611
We do, just not at Master rank. We've got Adept right now, still need another 25 or so XP to get Master.
>>
>>43759456
>Psyche Shifting
>Impossibility
>>
>>43759625
>The fuck is wrong with Psychokinesis?
Mostly that it doesn't do anything we need doing.
>>
>>43759456
>>Psychokinesis
>>Impossibility
>>
>>43759625
If you want to drop fucktons of xp into it to get all of those and then never use them.

It would be good for Dev, because it'd unlock better tech magic. Shee not so much.
>>
>>43759625
Psychokinesis looks good on paper until you start thinking about it and realise, what do we need that stuff for?
SingleTarget/AoE damage we already got, flying we can get easily, why would we need to move thing with our mind?
>>
I think Psychokinesis + Impossibility won, double-checking.
>>
>>43759625
It doesn't exactly do these things for free, its a massive Xp sink and we don't actually have XP to spare right now.
>>
And we get something useless because people are terrified of flaws that'll get removed in the course of things.
>>
>>43759695
If by "the course of things" you mean "investing in one XP sink or another" then yes.
>>
ok, please roll 1d20+9 to try and force your mind to develop psychokinetic powers.
>>
>>43759707
Instead you just got the XP sink? Wut?
What sort of logic is that?
We actually benefit from getting Telepathy mastery because we actually use Telepathy all the time.
We have literally no reason to ever invest into Psychokinesis
>>

Rolled 1 + 9 (1d20 + 9)

>>43759707
You need to invest far less into Telepathy to remove those flaws than you would need to invest into Psychokinesis, even assuming it would ever be worth doing that, which it won't.
>>
>>43759744
The only use in Psychokinesis is to give it someone else via Psychic Infection.
>>
>>43759715
>2 - Intelligence and Willpower bonus increases to +2; Psychic Energy bonus increases to +10; At this rank and every rank thereafter, a vampire with Command gains access to a new power under Telepathy, until they are able to use all telepathy powers - this bonus applies retroactively if the vampire acquires Command at a later date.
Telepathy powers are acquired automatically as we buy ranks in our Bloodline, which is currently the best thing available to buy, so long as we can access Command.
>>
>>43759780
Making Psychokinsesis instead of a useful power even more useless, great.
>>
>>43759775
It's AoEs are better than anything you have so far for raw damage potential.
>>
>>43759806
>It's AoEs are better than anything you have so far for raw damage potential.
Comnpared to Area Lash and the ability to teleport huge objects on their head? I doubt it.
>>
>>43759799
It gets better. Bloodline automatically gives Clairsentience powers as well if we have Sight ranks.
>>
>>43759832
Well, we can't do the latter, and it is absolutely better than the former due to metapsionics.
>>
>>43759806
Storm of Fire would like to heavily disagree with that.

>>43759846
>Well, we can't do the latter,
We have already done the latter.
>>
>>43759806
Launching large rocks at people with Mile-High Jump outdamages every single psychokinesis power unless you're willing to dump obscene quantities of PE into it. Yeah, the stupidest fucking thing ever outdamages psychokinesis, and it does it for far cheaper and far less PE cost. If you're super worried about hitting them you can use void portals.
>>
>>43759806
>It's AoEs are better than anything you have
We have something with better damage output since thread 10 or so in Storm of Fire, and in difference to Psychokinsesis AoE is costs us nothing,
Why the hell do you think we never got Psychokinesis bak then? because the raw damage it gives is not actually useful to us.
>>
The real question is, with Impossibility+Photokinesis can we warp it into firing Void beams?
>>
>>43759924
Yeah, 6 attacks of 6d6 damage is amazing.
>>
>>43759997
You forgot Rapid Shot
>>
>>43758628
I just realized that if we hadn't gotten Will and Cha King gifts we could have gotten our Bloodline up to 7 instead, which would have given +7 willpower and +35 PE along with bullshit regen that keeps working so long as we still have at least 20% of our mass, some bonus to defenses, as well as bonus psychic powers maybe depending on what exactly "access to command" means.

Fuck. I wasn't even aware that Bloodline was available for purchase. I sure as fuck would have said to get that instead of Will and Cha at the start of last thread.
>>
>>43760047
To be fair, it wasn't available until the start of *this* thread.

You try the simpler powers you have learned of in the discipline of psychokinesis: telekinesis, cryo- and pyrokinesis. You are elated when your early efforts meet with success, then crushed when you realise that its your realm changing itself to fit your desires, rather than an actual use of psychic skill on your part.

You bring some objects from downstairs and trying practising on them: levitating books, burning paper and bending spoons.

Eventually you start to get the hang of burning things, and by early afternoon you're launching fireballs and tongues of flame at will.

Rainya is with you and it is her encouragement which keeps you going despite things getting difficult.

“Are flames supposed to be purple and yellow at the same time?” she asks, as you burn a hole in a nearby rock.

“Of course they are” you say loftily.

“It's just I've never seen purple fire before” she says with a grin

“Well of course my fire is better than normal boring fire” you explain.

[Pyrokinesis gained. Impossibility: Your fire is multicoloured and otherworldly and ignores resistances to fire (but treats vulnerability to fire normally).]

“Well I do find you very hot” says Rainya, giggling as you groan at the pun she adds “shouldn't you take a break from burning things? I'm sure the others should be back now?”

“I am kinda hungry” you admit, wondering briefly if that's because your body still needs food, or if its just habit, either way, you feel hungry.

“So what amazing new powers will you be mastering this afternoon?” asks Rainya, raising an enquiring eyebrow at you “island juggling? Ice sculptures? Finally figuring out how to get more than one body?” she duplicates herself in front of you as you walk.

You snort in amusement and lightly slap both rears with tentacles, eliciting dual cries of mock outrage.
>>
What are you doing this afternoon?

>Psychic powers (which?)
>Gifts (which?)
>Your locket
>Allies powers (who? which?)
>Go out with Rainya
>Other (?)

Note that since you have just gained a psychic power, gaining a new one in a short space of time raises the DC and might have downsides if you fail the roll too badly.

You can of course pick another task such as assassin-hunting etc.

We -could-, but we won't.

>>43760134
Just curious, what was the DC last time? Or was it a secret?

Also would Jaggy give favor for subsequent attempts like how he did for the activation chambers?
>>
>>43760119
>and ignores resistances to fire
Ok, that might actually be good against mirror peeps. They don't adapt immunity, they just get stupid high resistances.
>>
>>43760174
Secret, and yes he would
>>
>>43760198
Why would we use fire against them though?
>>
>>43760212
Because they adapted to the bullets.
>>
>>43760134
>assassin-hunting
What Pally wants I sometimes vote for.
>>
>>43760212
Setting their house on fire? Desperation? Fuck if I know, but if we ever get into a situation where burning a mirror guy to death seems like a good idea, well this makes it a better idea.
>>
>>43760221
We use lasers.
And if they adapt we use tentacles or bullets. And then life drain.
>>
>>43760134
>You can of course pick another task such as assassin-hunting etc.
This is the part where Kae, Dev, and Lirael get ganked by cyborgs isn't it.
>>
>>43760243
I want to meet the cybog that can take on Lirael or Kae. Let alone both.
>>
>>43760134
>Your locket
>>
>>43760240
Lasers are resisted by the same sort of stuff as fire, and do not ignore resistances.
>>
>>43760243
I didn't even think of that, I just had them out of the way because they thought you'd be having sex again.

Thanks for the idea anon.
>>
>>43760257
The one armed and armored to the teeth with antinite probably has a pretty good shot.

>>43760265
First you take voidflesh. Now you take this. I need to learn how to just shut my fucking mouth.
>>
>>43760257
Especially now that Lir is hopped up on Void powers.
>>
>>43760262
>Lasers are resisted by the same sort of stuff as fire
That was the point yes, why would we ever use Fire instead of lasers? And if they get resistance,m why not use literally anything but fire?
>>
>>43760262
>>43760281
Lasers are light damage, like Photokinesis, not fire.
>>
>>43760281
Because the fire ignores- Did you not read the fucking update?
>>
>>43760275
it could be worse, at least you didn't make werespiders happens.
>>
>>43760275
>The one armed and armored to the teeth with antinite probably has a pretty good shot.
He then gets fucked up by Dev
>>
>>43760294
>Because the fire ignores- Did you not read the fucking update?
WHY WOULD WE CONTINUE TO USE FIRE.
WE DON'T NEED FIRE RESISTANCE IGNORING WHEN WE CAN LITERALLY JUST NOT JUSE FIRE YOU IMBECILE.
>>
>>43760310
BECAUSE THEY CAN ADAPT TO LITERALLY ANYTHING BUT THE FIRE YOU FUCKTARD
>>
>>43760294
You're just trolling at this point.
>>
>>43760319
>BECAUSE THEY CAN ADAPT TO LITERALLY ANYTHING BUT THE FIRE YOU FUCKTARD
Except they can't? Not to mention impossibility takes care of that anyway.
>>
>>43760275
Don't worry, as >>43760257 pointed out they'll come home with with spare parts and a funny story.
>>
>>43760319
So if we ever meet someone who is immune to everything thats gonna be handy, I guess.
Otherwise its still useless as hell compared to all our other damage options.
>>
>>43760257
It wouldn't be one, it'd be a swarm of the fuckers like they sent after everyone else they hit..
>>
>>43760339
Except for the fact that adaptation is, you know, a mirror gift? The people we would be hypothetically fighting? Which can offer adaptation to nearly anything? And that Impossibility would only bypass immunity, not resistance? Which they can't adapt up?
>>
>>43760363
>It wouldn't be one, it'd be a swarm of the fuckers like they sent after everyone else they hit..
Void teleportation HO!
>>
>>43760119
Does it have to specifically be fire resistance or does this also cover generalized elemental resistances?
>>
>>43760368
>Except for the fact that adaptation is, you know, a mirror gift?
Yes and requires them to have been hit by Shees powers first. Not to mention we can still mindrape them.
>>
>>43760368
Why would we give a shit about resistance? Pyrokinesis damage is tiny by comparison, we can just overpower the resistance.
>>
>>43760409
it would cut through elemental/energy resistance, but not general damage resistasnce that affects everything.
>>
Since our bloodline power makes it so we're basically unkillable so long as our soul is intact, anybody thing it might be a good idea to petition one of the five for a soul protection power?

We did it lickity split when we were worried about mental stuff being our weak point and it's only a matter of time before the Mirror decides that telling people it's a good idea to go for soul-kills.
>>
>>43760455
>Since our bloodline power makes it so we're basically unkillable so long as our soul is intact
At Rank 20 which we most likely won't be getting anytime soon.
>>
>>43760411
Or to have been hit by anything with the same damage type ever. Perfect mental defenses exist and would most likely be deployed, and given how much we tend to throw behind our mental attacks, we'd probably run dry first.

>>43760430
I can't think of any attack that does more damage in one strike off the top of my head.
>>
>>43760471
3 Baalzi favour and 15xp (assuming he offers no ranks in FoL) gets us to 12 FoL, which gives us 66 Vamp xp. After that we need to get 34 xp in order to max out bloodline. So that's 49 total normal xp we need to get to afford it.

The limiting factor is how often we can make the dragon happy since we can easily get 49 sooner than 3 baalzi favor especially since two of them will be at higher standards of fuckery.

You head down to share lunch with your family and see what they've been buying, including toys, gadgets and clothes.

Afterwards you and Rainya head up to your realm again, and the others find something to occupy themselves with elsewhere.

From the suggestive comments they clearly think you and Rainya are up to something very different to what you're actually doing.

Back up in your realm you talk Rainya through what you're going to be doing next.

“So” says Rainya, after your explanation “You want me to fumble around in the darkness with otherworldly stuff and creatures?” She cocks her head at you “Shee I thought I was the one with the strangest kinks in this relationship, now I'm not so sure.”

“It's for training” you say, trying to ignore your blush as you summon up a dark area of void “now, lets see how it goes.”

Several minutes later you pull a shaky, shivering Rainya out of the void patch and hold her as she throws up.

“By the Mother that was horrible” she gasps, gratefully taking the glass of water you hand her “are you sure this is a good idea Shee?”

“I'm sure” you tell her “I know you're tough enough to handle this, and this will help you take on anything.”

Rainya staggers to her feet “Alright” she says with grim determination “but I want you to build me a palace or something for our first anniversary.” She heads back into the patch of void.

Please roll 1d20+9 to help Rainya synch her powers up with the Void

After almost an hour of stumbling around in the darkness, Rainya suddenly finds...her sight.

Rather than needing you to guide her every step she can walk confidently through the patches of void darkness you create, though they still nauseate her, she can at least see.

[Impossible Sense (Sight): Rainya can see perfectly in darkness, including magical darkness and the void. She still suffers any other side effects of being in such areas.]

After testing this enough you cancel your powers and see that Rainyas eyes...are spheres of pure blackness. You wave your hand in front of her face.

“Shee what are you doing?” Rainya asks

“You can see ok?” you say “in the light?”

“Of course I can” Rainya says, puzzled “Why would you think I can't?”

You hand her a mirror.

“Oh...” says Rainya faintly “well, that's um...new” She pokes at her eye gingerly with a fingertip and then looks around, as if seeing everything anew.

After a few minutes her eyes resume their normal appearance, but change back into pits of blackness when she is in the dark, and slowly back to normal once she is out again. Rainya takes it rather well.

“This is kinda fun” she says “Maybe I could learn to turn invisible? Or maybe some sort of shapeshifting power? Or teleporting? Can we go again?”

What new power will you help Rainya gain?

>Invisibility
>Shapeshifting
>Teleporting
>That's enough voidwalking today Rainya
>Other power (?)
>Other (?)

Rainya has only gained a minor power, this has not increased the DC of gaining another.

The other power option is kinda freeform, if you try to gain her a power that simply doesn't exist/fit then there will be no downside other than failing.

“Let's see if we can try changing your shape some more” you tell Rainya, encouraged by the new appearance of her eyes.

Rainya gives you a knowing wink “I'm sure this sort of thing is going to be useful only in a fight and nowhere else” she says in what she fondly imagines to be an innocent tone.

Using your power over the void, you try to insinuate it into Rainyas flesh, trying to teach it to twist and stretch, and change...

Eventually, Rainya emerges from the void cocoon you are using to change her...looking very different.

“Shee” she says, speaking from two mouths - one on either side of her face “I feel different”

“You look different” you tell her “two mouths for starters, and six eyes, and your skin is really white” You hand Rainya a mirror and she examines her face (faces?) critically “Ok, not what I was going for” she admits “but its a start”

The two of you spend the rest of the afternoon practising her new power, until she has a handle on it.

Eventually you head downstairs. One of the side-effects is that you have some control over Rainyas form...which provides you with a great deal of amusement.

“Stop it” Rainya admonishes you as you follow her downstairs.

“Stop what?” you say guilelessly as Rainyas skin hue deepens, and then lightens again.

“I'm warning you....” Rainya mock growls “If you give me eyes on me elbows again, I'm going to smack you!”

“On you it looks good!” you protest.
>>
[Shapechanging 1: Rainya can alter her appearance to that of another humanoid of roughly the same size (no more than 25% change in size). If she is trying to pretend to be a specific person, a Fellowship roll is required. Rainya can add additional minor features (surface organs such as eyes and ears) and change her hair, skin and eye colour within natural ranges as she sees fit.
Rainyas different bodies can change shape independent of one another.
Rainya cannot grow (functional) extra limbs.
Rainya cannot gain additional modes of movement (flight, climbing etc)
Rainya cannot gain the ability to survive in other environment (i.e. she cannot grow gills)
Corruption: Rainya instinctively changes shape and does not need to spend an action to do so.
Rainya can blend into the background, gaining a +2 bonus to Stealth checks per rank in Shapechanging
Shee can exert control over Rainyas shape when she can see her, changing her within the limits of her power. Rainya can contest this with a Willpower check, with a bonus of +5 per rank in Shapechanging.]

That evening you show off your new abilities to your friends, Lirael seems very jealous of Rainyas ability to change shape.

That night you're both very tired, and so further experimentation of exactly what Rainya can do with her new power in a...recreational sense will await until another day.

What will you do the next day?

I can't think of what to get with Rainya and Kae. Rainya I want to see the Shapechanging and Impossible Sense higher ranks. Duplication 20 would probably be ok. She could also buy our new Star teleport thing for just in case she ever gets stranded somewhere. Form of the Deep Mother would be hilarious to get if she can still use the Shapechanging chameleon thing with it and be a sneaky blue whale sized monster swarm.
I dunno. What do other people think for Rainya and Kae?

Shapechanging is 6xp/rank and works as follows:

Shapechanging 2: can alter her appearance to that of any living creature, but may not more than double/half her mass, does not gain the natural abilities of the shape she wears, but does gain the movement types (fly, swim or climb speeds for example).
Gains +10 hit points
Shapechanging 3: can alter her appearance to that of any other living creature, but not supernatural ones, to a maximum size change of three times/one third her mass. Gains the natural abilities of the shape she is wearing.
Can grow extra limbs
Additional hit points increase to +20
Shapechanging 4: can alter her appearance to that of any living creature Rainya can imagine, but not supernatural ones, to a maximum size change of four times/one-quater her mass.
Can survive in other environments
Additional hit points increase to +50
Shapeechanging 5: Shapechanging 3: can alter her appearance to that of any living creature Rainya can imagine, or any supernatural creature she is familiar with, to a maximum size change of one-tength/five times her mass. Gains the natural (not msagical) abilities of the shape she is wearing.
Additional hit points increase to +100

Mass increases/decreases cannot be used in conjuction with other forms

She has Fellowship as a tertiary stat so add 1 to each of those costs.

8 to 12 = 8xp
12 to 14 = 6xp

Well, Dev doesn't have any powers really getting much from more Willpower so I figured its better to let him vocer things we aren't already awesome at anyway.

Dev can actually get to 27 in Str and Con if you wanted to max those. He's weird and has 20 as his natural max stat in those because of reasons.

>>43762613

Dev has Psionics, he gets his will power bonus to physical stats too.

Enhance ability.

>>43762641
>Dev can actually get to 27 in Str and Con if you wanted to max those
I realise but it was mostly filler and 30 fit well into the purchase.

>>43762648
Honestly he doesn't really "need" those physical stats.
>>
>>43762679
It still means that Willpower is objectively better than physical stats, even for the purposes of increasing physical stats.

Filler doesn't mean you waste XP. Buying nothing is better than purposefully being wasteful.
>>
>>43762679
You could afford to bring them both to 26 and get another +1 in each
>>
>>43762679
>Honestly he doesn't really "need" those physical stats.

Sure, but why push those stats why pushing will power will get the to same point?

And also get bonus to saves, and other abilities of his through his selection of Psionics.
>>
>>43762679
>>43762703
Actually buying the base stats is better if you want to keep calling him the antimagic guy. If he fights a soulless or something absolutely saturated in antinite or anything that can fuck with magic, it can turn off the Enhance Ability buffs. Stats gained from Impossibility, however, stay because magic is only used at the moment of purchase to increase.

This is what I got. If anyone wants to spend the last 26 of Dev's then go for it I guess. I'd rather save it for something else than boost con/str above max since I don't think the bonus will be doing enough to be worth the cost.

I felt the Fellowship was worth more than the weapon since we're getting shapechanging. She'll need better than what she currently has if she wants to act like other people ever.
>>
>>43763450
>She'll need better than what she currently has if she wants to act like other people ever.
Why does she want to do that?
>>
>>43763624
Because she has maxed out shapechanging? If it's really such a big deal then I guess it'd probably won't be getting in and we can go with the other Rainya build >>43762529 instead.
>>
What about Limbs Unrivaled for Rainya? With Shapechanging she can get extra limbs and even without doing that she would be able to fight ambidextrously if we wanted.
