Technique Questions

ya, i'll let that slide until kaz does somethin to make me regret it

buwhaahahahahahah, Alright ^^. Here is another....

Quote :

Area Purification
TEXP: 8
Both palms thrust out extracting streams of sutra cards from the caster's clothing or sleeves to cover the terrain and negate non passive Magixal and Possession techniques.
Effect: drain is Fierce, area = 10 ft per level

Would this continue to drain after it has been cast, or does it just do a single drain and last.... continuously? I have been wondering this since it has been used against one of my characters >_>

Lol. You cant find gas or matches in the past... But, you can see the cards to effect them?

Almighty Shin has handed this ruling down...

Shin says:
*reply on the boards and tell rune he can't ask questions until he gets a signature on the boards from both kaz and kyro



good luck and my the force be with you.

Kyro Edit: He must beat me in a pokemon battle before gaining my signature badge.

Lol.
Q: I was wondering if a Passive tech would count towards the required number that you need to make a custom.

Quote :

Swordsmanship
Skill, accuracy, and ability to use a broad blade.
Effect: damage based on Strength attribute +1. Increases to +2 when perfected.
* Required

The drain of this tech would be 10% - anything from rank, right? Or would it not have any drain?

Quote :

Golem
TEXP: 10
The caster creates humanoid shadow warriors that are able to fight independently of their caster. The number of warriors created depend on the control level of the technique (+1 per level). These golems are Strong but can be destroyed easily by a blessed attack.
Effect: attributes and damage is Strong, Golem density = 5.

With this spell, would someone be able to cast it, get five golems, and then cast it again to get 5 additional, making them have 10? and if they can, would they be able to get more, as long as they have the stamina to cast the spell.

lol! good ass question boy!

lol
you can for the saga tho
i'ma have to put something in there to state you can't do that
but good as question!

*Crys* dont take it away It will be awesome, an army of golems, pretty please?

**Edit: Also, I know I did this with out asking, but when I did the first round of golems, I gave them all different kinds of weapons... Im not sure if that is ok or not lol. But now I am wondering if the golems would be able to fly around like the one who summoned them, if they are able to fly that is.

nope! xD

that's what they can do. if you didn't buy em weapons, they dun got it (for future reference). if it dun say they can do it here, they can't. think that should answer whether they can fly or not. (they dun even have tech packages, so all their fighting'll be basically novice xD)

I see... would there be anyway to make them stronger and stuff?

check on the site and lemme know if you can answer that question. if you dun see anything, try either a site suggestion or a custom. 1 more question left for today

If they are made of shadow then it would stand to reason that they come pre equipped with some form of weapons, weapons made of the same shadow they are made of.

no. it does not. if i didn't say they came with weapons then they come with nothing. it would make sense for them to use melee attacks. it would not make sense for them to have weapons, or else i would have stated they had shadow weapons. it makes no sense for them to do something their description doesn't say it does. move further comments to an occ thread and use this for questions only. you got your answer.

Quote :

Recaste
TEXP: 10
The ability to redo the last spell channeled just by speaking a single word chant.
Effect: drain is High

With this tech, would it only cost High drain when you recast the spell, or would it be High + Spells Drain?

Quote :

Auramist (passive)
TEXP: 5
The ability to see a mist near areas where spirits are. The color of the aura changes with the nature of the spirit and the intensity signifies its strength.
Effect: sense strength = 20% per level

How much range does Auramist have?

sounds good

@Kitsu RE: Lyteflies

If you are in a wide open countryside or something like that, it shouldn't really hurt you. Maybe -10% (Weak) for random debris hitting you. Now if you are in a city, construction yard/zone, shop, etc, the explosion will trigger other explosions b/c if you cast it with cars within 33.33 yards of your focal point, those cars would explode and that explosion would harm you. The stone debris would harm you. If you are in water, you'd get harmed, etc. This ability has been used with no realistic consequence to its use and that's probably why certain parties are now taking more of a look at it.

Here's one question that doesn't get asked? Is an element an element regardless of who harnesses it? Meaning if you don't have any element negating techs, why is it that if two Iyce users fight, they can hurt each other, but the ice they conjure can't possibly hurt them? Is there a special property in my ice that is different from your ice or is it all ice? There's a reason people say, "Don't play with fire b/c you might get burned."

Also, do you ever notice that a lot of the big explosions and area effects are sent into places where your allies are not fighting or there's the dramatic scramble for them to break away from their battle and escape the blast in time and the explosions push out away from you, so generally with the force of the push, you are safe, but lyteflies scatter around the area and then explode. Simply by the description, it would make no sense for me to be standing in the center of the impact zone. This ability by its description is not meant for one-on-one combat unless it's part of chain move that knocks someone to the ground or up in the air away from them to let it loose.

100 feet is NOT a long distance btw. This issue has come out numerous times and the fact that IRL 270-300 lb football players can travel 120 feet (40 yd dash) in less than 5 seconds should prove that.

These points might give some reason as to why the issue came up in the first place. Hope it gives you some things to consider to help either your argument gain favor or see where some objections lie. I have no stake in this. Glad you're back though.

o.o i've always seen that move like a minefield....>.>' why would you wanna be in a minefield when they go go, yeah you wont' get harmed by the mines....until they explode x]

Edit: Also you really gotta think about it, asking to me immune to you're own moves is kinda a bit much. Mainly since we are using moves that just anyone an learn,unless it's stated otherwise. So if you become immune to your own moves why wouldn't you be immune to someone else's move.

Moving onto Pickachu being immune to his own lighting bolt, it's not necessarily because of some magical second power. Pikachu is a lighting rat pokemon who for some unexplained reason can charge and release lighting bolt's from his cheeks ( or something along those lines of what was said in an old episode a long time ago ) There could be a multitude of reason's for why pikachu isn't bothered by it, possibly it's fur could give it some sort of immunity to it's own lighting attacks, or it's tail acts as a sort of a lighting rod to redirect the most damaging of the lighting away from the body. OR it could of been those things that are blatantly ignore in anime and manga because if it's going to be added in then thing's will begin to start having far too much content no one is going to bother reading it because it'll be boring and i don't think someone would want to read an encyclopedia about a lighting rat pokemon and exactly how it works and functions. Hell it could have some sort of organ inside of it that helps make it immune. or mainly it's just the power of 'I-don't-wanna-explain-this-unneeded-piece-of-information-because-i'm-getting-money-none-the-less-for-this-show'

With The Flash the thing that seem's make him immune to his own abilities is this invisible aura that surrounds The Flash that makes himself and his cloths immune to dealing with air friction. and again it's really falling toward's that unneeded explanation because no one would really care about reading so freaking much about one little things. It's unnecessary and possibly unwanted little details, I just read up the flash to read up somethings about him because i know that sometimes they mention other powers that he does have, but it hasn't exactly been stated and it becomes apparent that the flash seems to be able to some how ignore some of the laws of physics, but thats how quite a lot of the superhero characters work, just because following the rules can be boring sometimes and we all know that rules must be broken.

Scream of the Lyteflies
TEXP: 15
The user performs a gestures causing hundreds or thousands of tiny electrically charged particles to manifest within a target area. On creation or when activated, these particles burst in a unison of multiple explosions.
Effect: damage is Destructive, area = 20 ft per level.

Okay so what your asking for is do we have immunity to our own technique. Well this technique is an area of effect kind of move, it's meant to damage EVERYTHING in it's area of effect. It's why I don't go around causing my Clasm technique right where my character is standing out because well, hmm for god sakes why would I want two matters clashing around my characters body? The Scream of the Lyteflies is just causing a series of hundreds of thousands of tiny electrically charged particles in a target area. Apparently this move also have the choice of whether you can activate it instantly or let it simmer like a time bomb and seems that you can also control where you wish to place these hundreds of thousands of little electrical particles. Sure yeah you wanna be immune to lytning, go ahead be immune to lytning but i dont think you'll be immune to explosions.

If you wanna bring in other thing's into this, I got another example for you, Deidara from Naruto his character is all about the beauty of art and it's instance before it's undeniable end, thus explosions. He's always flying on his bird and sending out his explosive devices into area's where he's not in, why is that? Hmm maybe he's immune to his clay but not his explosions. I do remember this one part in the manga where it explains a bit more about Deidara's abilities being earth chakra and blah blah and it pretty much told how he was able to make the clay explode, but thats not my point it was his fight with Sasuke before Deidara dies because he uses his ultimate technique. So let's add in your knowledge to this situation, Deidara uses his secret technique that pretty much uses his own body as an explosion, which for some reason it looks like it's equal to a nuclear explosion or something close to being as massive because the explosion was seen for many many miles. So by what your saying if we are immune to our own techniques then that explosion shouldn't have killed him because it's his own technique. Now i'm sure by now you may come up with a rebuttal to this saying that he wouldn't survive it because he made his own body into a bomb, but i'm merely adding in what you said about being immune to your own technique. That was Deidara's own personal technique that he made but yet he wasn't able to survive it.

Hurrecayne
TEXP: 10
A large scale spell invoking ravaging winds that covers a wide area, larger than the city. It takes a minutes for the spell to start up and 5 for it to fully build. The spell can only be performed perfected.
Effect: average damage for someone caught in the elements will be Fierce, wide scale terrain damage

This spell is an outrageous spell that cover's over an entire city! What city you ask? Well I dunno I only know of one city and that's Saicity and if it cover's over that large of a range whoever got this spell can pretty much kill everyone on the site by performing this spell a few times, oh dont worry by what you're saying the hurrecayne would for some reason have no strength to lift the user off the ground and would somehow have every single piece of whatever flying around in it to always miss it they'll be just fine. Honestly if that's how thing's are gonna go, I wanna be immune to my own technique, I'll just make a new character get the wynd package and learn this move and thats its I'll start performing the spell over and over until I run out of stamina, fall asleep regain stamina, do it again and keep going until everyone's dead. Oh dont' worry about me being found I'll throw myself into the hurrecayne no one else is immune to it but me so even if they still knew it was me, the only opening they have is when i'm not doing it and the damage is more than enough to cripple them especially when I can perform it more than one time.

Hell's Echoes
TEXP: 15
Red rings begin to oscillate about the user in a wide target area and flames explode out [from the rings?] and cover the surroundings with dark hellfire for a post.
Effect: damage is Destructive, radius = 10 yds per level.
So a ring forms' around the being and fire begin's to shoot out from the ring, possibly this could be explained a bit more as to how the flames shoot out or if the rings are the direct source where the flames fire out from or exactly how the ring moves, because if anything I could use this as both offensive and defensive by having the ring spin around in a circle around me and have the fire shoot out from the rings burning everything around me.


I'm not gonna keep going because its gonna get to long but i can understand where you're getting at about being immune to your technique only to a certain degree because if we run around with everyone being immune to ALL there own techniques, We gotta start coming up with a system explaining as to why MY Clasm is any different from YOUR clasm, or why MY scream of the lytflies is different from YOUR scream of the lytflies because apparently you can be immune to your own technique yet you can't be immune to someone else using the EXACT same technique, so tell me what would be the difference because your both imposing magical energy to bring up this specific technique.

it'll just be bring about far too much unneeded work and would require everyone to start pumping out a lot more fluff into their posts and things would really just get boring.

You’ve used the technique fine up until now without killing yourself. So, what’s the difference?

I think this should just be best left to the hands of shin because we're just going to keep arguing about what concept we are to be chasing after because while yes we are in a fantasy type of rp, like everything fiction not all the rules of real life would apply. So it all depends on how shin wants the rules of real life to apply.

Yokai Transformation Quest
The quest to unlock the Yokai second form!
Subclass: Yokai
Requires: 14 TEXP, 750 words
A strong Yokai is able to transform into a second form which is more powerful than its first. In order to call out the second transformation, a Yokai must surpass its limits. This can be done during battle, meditation, memory unlocking or dreams. There are other ways, but in the end, the Yokai should be able to endure the stress put on it and grow into a much larger version of itself.
Quest Ability: Mystic Yokai Transformation - increases the size and attributes of a Yokai (Strong).

I've been noticing this site relies heavily on precisely how something is worded. So, I'm going to go ahead and ask to be sure. Do they have to grow into another form or are subtle changes permissible? It was just the concept of my most recent character that it isn't as much as a physical as it is mental, which in turn evokes powers buried deep within. Of course, there is a change in his eyes and demeanour.

It says it right in there that you just grow into a much larger version of yourself.

@ Mariko: If your going to put my name please be certain that i fight in such a manner on this very site.

@ siSTAR, kyro, kaz, kimi & blue - you are channeling spells it's not nec. your energy. all spells were originally created by/for the hogasha so it's kind of theirs that others use.

so ya if you shoot a fire ball, someone uses portal and redirects it to you, it hits you. same spell, just aimed at you now. that's kinda the point of one of those void tech so that's where my thinking was goin on that.

but ya, short answer is you can be hurt by the spell you invoke.

i added to the breakdown page that "If for some reason your magic attack is redirected to you (or you're hit by it somehow), it can and will hurt you, so be careful." i understand that it would be really cool to walk through ur techs, but they're other techs that allow you to do that. but i will accept a quest suggestion to make someone immune to the spells they caste. so that ends that. next time, try not t'draw it out.

@ kyro - even tho you prolly thought it was a discussion, it looks like an argument to me. dun argue w/members on the board and follow the rules on the rules pages. thx
also, dun edit other ppls posts w/o their permission. all good?

@ all - if i need to clarify or reword techs, use my admin board, plz.

So question, a move like: Lytning bind that Paralyzes an opponent. Just how long does the paralyzes last?

Alright a two pronged question..
1: Can taintings have custom techs after you have learned and mastered the required amount in the package?
2: If so; when making custom techs for them do you follow the same rules about making custom techs for packages?

Alright, when you have a taint, do you have to do the xformation before you can use any of the techs, or can you use the techs with out having to do the xformation.

Xformation required for techs.

» Summon Spirit
This enables the user to call their summoned spirit out into the physical realm. It stays attached to the user, though it can act on its own.
Effect: drain based on Transformation

» Disconnect
Allows the physical separation of the Spirit from the Summoner so that they will both exist in separate physical bodies. In this form, the Spirit cannot venture too far from the Master.
Effect: range = 20 ft per level

My question is, would the Summon Spirit ability be like a Spirit's Spiritual Impression Quest (though still attached to the user). If so, then wouldn't Disconnect (without summon spirit) be a like a Spirit who hasn't done Spiritual Impression Quest? [If this was already answered, could someone place the answer here?]
