Line #67 RolePlay/EverythingGaidenV2


1	Everything: Gaiden v2 is the successor to {{Roleplay/Everything Gaiden}} under a new GM, which though possessing few changes to the original has quickly developed to a rather different game.
2
3	The premise remains the same: Random characters from unrelated worlds end up in an unfamiliar realm. However, the integration of a ruleset and abolition of the plot ban has resulted in a more plot-friendly environment.

6	!!This game shows examples of:
7	* AerithAndBob: Ellen, None, Fuuka, Louie, Lizzie and Cheru are all examples of names from the game.
8	* AlienGeometries: Marie's dance club, Club 404, is located on 'the fifth corner of X Street and Y Avenue'. On the other hand, her psychiatry business is somewhere completely different, in a perfectly normal building... and her office/home is connected directly to both of them.
9	** Taken UpToEleven when Marie activated 'Warp 404', causing the entire place to have a date with Escher.
10	* OurAngelsAreDifferent: In Louie's world, angels are divine bees of light and seraphim are giant six-winged bees of burning radiance.
11	* AnimatedArmor: Knight-Class Contructs.
12	* ArchaicWeaponForAnAdvancedAge: Though in some cases, they are only archaic in comparison to the weapons of other worlds.
13	** Risa has a pick in a futuristic universe, and None uses a bow, in a SchizoTech universe leaning towards the futuristic.
14	* BadassNormal: Jim, a courier from a post apocalyptic world, does not have any abilities and has very low Special Attack.
15	** Risa, an wandering entertainer from a futuristic world, lacks any abilities and has no Special Attack at all.
16	** Miranda, despite her SuperStrength, is largely this, particularly considering she comes from TheRoaringTwenties and thus [[RealityEnsues doesn't get so many chances to use her]] CharlesAtlasSuperpower.
17	* CaptainErsatz: Eldon Jaeger was originally supposed to be Eren Jaeger. Yes, that [[{{Manga/AttackOnTitan}} Eren Jaeger]]. Elf decided that they should be named differently, though.
18	* ClockworkCreature: Ellen is, to an extent.
19	* TheCommandments: A meta-example in The Decalogue which is designed to handle lore conflicts.
20	* EnhancedArchaicWeapon: Or in other cases, the sword is a necrotic, soul-stealing blade, the scythe withers all it strikes and the anthame summons seraphim.
21	* FragileSpeedster: Gaston. He relies on evading and parrying attacks to survive, as he has a low Physical Defense.
22	%%** Risa, None. Dany's entire build consists of running away.
23	* GaidenGame: Zigzagged. A majority of characters come from established settings (Roleplay/TwilightAcademy, alternate universes to Roleplay/RiseOfTheMagicGirls, what is implied to be [[{{VideoGame/Fallout}} Fallout]] and [[{{VideoGame/Starbound}} Starbound]]), but there is still a significant amount of characters from original settings.
24	* GenderBender: [[ShapeshiftingSeducer Ori promptly transformed into a male]] as soon as Dany [[SorryImGay informed her he is gay.]]
25	* GenreShift: This possesses far fewer characters than the original and more of a plot focus, resulting in a more traditional structure.
26	** The fewer characters bit is subverted with [=ElfCollaborator's=] entrance into the game.
27	* GlassCannon: Eina, None and technically, Fuuka.
28	* GradualGrinder: Ellen, to a lesser extent, [[WrenchWench Annabelle]]
29	** The former specializes in applying poisons and debuffs.
30	** The latter's magic heats objects to a point where their function is disrupted.
31	** Andon's Schmerzgeist also has elements of this with Aspect: Obsession and Aspect: Delirium.
32	* HardboiledDetective: Miranda.
33	* HardWorkHardlyWorks: Vehemently averted by Miranda, who tries to drill averting this into Luke as well.
34	** Gaston encourages this as his family's motto.
35	* HealingHands: Merlin, Kyle's [[SummonMagic Persona]] has Diarama, a healing spell.
36	** None's sound magic affinity is healing.
37	* KnightInShiningArmor: Played with in the case of Graham, who although is certainly honorable, doesn't mind acting as a bandit and dislikes the obligations and alienation his title brings.
38	-->'''Graham''': "When I was a squire, I thought knights would fight dragons and slay giants. All we do is play chess and occasionally talk about horses and kiss the king's ass."
39	** Gaston is a straighter example.
40	* LampshadeHanging:
41	** After [[HeroicBystander Sarah]] saves Lorenzo from thugs:
42	-->'''Sarah''': "Sorry, I'm not so good at this 'hero' and 'first responder' thing."
43	* LaserBlade: Ellen is equipped by one, though judging by its effects, it may not be anything remotely related to a laser.
44	* LimitBreak: Ellen can only perform Bodies Upon the Gears or Zero Day on an enemy with at least one of her counters on them.
45	** Gaston's Blade Dance and Eina's Blizzard are straighter examples.
46	* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: [[RunningGag Damn it, Elf.]]
47	* MageMarksman: Annabelle uses heat magic and powerful revolvers.
48	* MegaCity: Time-Space Administration Bureau-Administered Metropolis, or Outland City, or whatever you want to call it.
49	* MomentKiller: Miranda barged in to arrest Dany when he and Ori were flirting in Bar 404 just before it went somewhere. Cue Ori turning into a monster to fight Miranda and Dany deciding to flee.
50	* OneSteveLimit: Averted with Elizabeth (Lizzy) and Lizzie.
51	** Eldon Jaeger and Dany Jaeger have basically nothing in common with each other. Different players, different species, totally different abilities, totally different personalities.
52	* PowerupMount: Destrier, Graham's warhorse is this.
53	* PrivateDetective: Miranda
54	* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[HeroicBystander Sarah and Titan]] give one of these to [[FantasticRacism Lorenzo]] after he reacts poorly to them saving his life. They don't do it that well. Gaston promptly delivers a much straighter and more competent example.
55	-->'''Sarah''': "I normally lecture on calculus, not behavior, but understand this. Unlike you, I am an adult and have been trying to act mature. Something that is very difficult when you have the nerve to...to...!"
56	-->'''Titan''':" [[AssholeVictim Reward the people who reluctantly saved your life with petty racism and insults?]]"
57	-->'''Sarah''': "...That."
58	* ShoutOut: Numerous. So far,
59	** {{VideoGame/World Of Warcraft}}
60	** {{Franchise/Shin Megami Tensei Persona}}
61	** {{Literature/A Clockwork Orange}}
62	** {{Franchise/Pokemon}}
63	** {{VideoGame/League Of Legends}}
64	** {{WebAnimation/RWBY}}
65	** {{VisualNovel/Katawa Shoujo}}
66	** {{Literature/Dresden Files}}
67	* SinisterScythe: Lizzie's Death Scythe.
68	* TheSixStats: Subverted, during planning a similar system was considered but due to how vastly different the uses of stats between characters was, a five stat system with more names that reflected combat purpose rather than character traits (Physical Attack, Physical Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense and Agility/Dexterity).
69	* SliceOfLife: Remains as one though shows signs and potential of developing a plot.
70	** The various characters working in Club 404 with Ori gone and Marie busy.
71	* StandardStatusEffects: Adhered to with varying degrees. Stun works as per normal, Berserk seems to be more controlled and Poison has additional effects that include CNS damage, liver damage, coma and cancer.
72	** The bleeding wounds inflicted by the Geist when in Aspect: Delirium mode act closer to the typical poison effect. Burning is also a status effect inflicted by the Geist.
73	* StoneWall: All of [[ThePaladin Louie's]] stat points are in defense, he can only counterattack.
74	* SummonMagic: Kyle's Persona.
75	** Also, Andon's Schmerzgeist.
76	* SwordAndSorcerer: To some strange degree at least. [[{{Necromancer}} Lizzie]] summons two undead minions to attack a lich whilst [[KnightInShiningArmor Graham]] breaks into his house and flanks him.
77	* UniversalPoison: Averted, there are currently four different types of poison each with their own counter and with their own unique effects.
