Persona: Digital Guardians (Interest Check and Brainstorming)

Kay then.

probelm is i don't now a good second subset for Oni

How about buffing? Or, since the Strength card is about inner strength, make him a blue oni and give him Mental spells.

Interesting. I just have to check up on it's skills real quick.

question what exactly is Mental Skills?

Cause I can't rally find anything like it. Checking the Wiki, says nothing on Mental.

Don't feel the need to be restricted by game mechanics. This is a freeform RP; numbers aren't going to do much good.

Fuck it, Mental it is.

Okay, a few things left.

• Resistances and Weaknesses are now neutral, since physical and mental cancel out on that front.
• You forgot to add Mental to your list of skills.
• You can have Cleave, Bash, or Skewer, not all three. (Oni has a club, so Bash would make the most sense, imo)

Oh and Azure, the light nul should just be resist. It's likely that Light and Dark won't actually cause instant death in this one though, since it's a bit unbalanced. Think of it like the "Kouha" spell line from Persona 1.

Derp. Okay, fixing now.

Accepted.

:D!

So I just jump in?

Read the backlog first (it's not that long). You're just in time, really; any later and you'd have had to wait for the second mission.

Biography: Flint has a pretty normal life. He lives in Virginia with his parents and younger brother. A year ago he and his friend Tim were walking to school early in the morning. A car came around the corner and was heading straight for his friend. Tim did not notice at first and the driver had looked away to pick something up they had dropped. Flint saw it coming and had a chance to warn Tim or even pull him out of the way, but he froze up. Tim was hit and killed

Aztec stuff? Cool, and accepted.

Can I still join in for the first part?

I think so. It hasn't properly started yet.

Back for a little bit. Came up with an evolved Persona that awaits approval.

That's... a female Metatron? That could be interesting later on... Accepted.

Okay several things.

1) Use an asterisk before each section to seperate them.

2) Would you mind elaborating more?

3) He would be weak to Ice not Lightining.

how about that?

That didn't seem to work...uh...looks like you forgot the asterisk at the beginning.

It should look like this.

As for the rest we'll have to wait and see what Anura says.

To get it working, you put a * at the beginning of every line:

*like this

results in

• like this

Also, that personality doesn't seem very evocative of The Hanged Man to me. I've edited the signups slightly to differentiate between Abilities (the types of skill your Persona has) and Skills (the actual abilities it starts with); I can't believe I only just noticed that they were both marked Skills.

Anyway, both of those have obviously been copied directly from the game without altering them to fit into this one; did you actually read the rules for character creation? There's no "death" element to be resisted (in fact, none of the weak/resist stuff matches up with the rules), you didn't specify which skill types they have, and I've never heard of "Attack All" and it's in the wrong section anyway.

Sorry, im an rp noob

That's generally not considered an excuse for not reading the rules.

I might be interested. Magician seems to be free...may I have a female character as Magician? The description implies it as masculine...
