Welcome to Gaia! ::

So let's see. I need to create a character, and so do you. Who wants to GM this thing, me or you?

Unless you wanted to run the various scientist combos?

Well, I'd assume they'd have a bit of a setup like this:



Something like that. they'll be doing skill checks and whatnot out of combat...


How about we'll just run the game as is, and see where it takes us? I'll GM, until we run into major hindrances, and then balance out from there? Also, while we're running the monster stuff, i can work out some systems on the scientists part, thereby killing three birds with one stone. I'll see if there's balancing issues, people can join in as they want, and I can test out the scenario generation. If and when I get the latter half up and running, you can either stay with your monster, or change to a scientist.

I'll also be whipping up a patch sheet and a true formalized "Core book" that can be used with the rest of the game.

Grapple bonus is something i haven't attempted to do yet, but basically, the grapple bonus is "how well you can grab and hold onto your opponent". You basically take a -5 to your attack roll (melee, obviously), and it does no damage. Obviously, you can't grapple anything more than one size larger than yourself.

Successful grapples reduce a monster maiden's attack roll by -2 until broken free.


And yes, i stole mine out of the book. but i'll rework it to something like yours though.


What do you think about my idea though? I'll gm, you guys can work on perfecting the monsters? Meanwhile, I'll continue test balancing some concepts with handlers.

You can pick any kind of skill, but different 'classes' of handlers receive different amounts to the skills they can learn.

Like a scientist may learn a bunch of skills, but only a few feats. A soldier, conversely, is better with feats, than actual skills.

In a way, skills are more like out of combat details, while feats will be gearing towards in combat capacities.

And talents... they'll be like "buffs", of sorts.



AS for DC checks, you're right. Gathering info about porn will be like a DC 5, versus the top secret plans to the new anti-monster missile, which is DC 25. Or disabling security at area 51, DC 40...

And lastly, for the tank thing, there is a branch of things called "knowledge-military", which you can use a knowledge check against military vehicles to lower piloting difficulties. Driving a tank is a DC 10, but that's driving. To learn how to fire the weapon or something, that'll be harder. It's easier to just drive a vehicle than it is to fully operate, so there's a difference in things. but i digress.


Would you please answer my question?

Ironically, the handlers have a lot more to focus on than monster maidens. But to me, it seems all the better because during fights, the handlers won't have much to do unless they're actively involved. Though, i'm almost feeling sympathetic towards the monster maidens now...

But eh. I'll start setting up the subforum as we speak, so you can come up with your character and whatnot.

Just means i got all day to work on it to make it more streamlined.
