Approved Abilities


Approved Techniques


Other Worldly Council
Description:Matthias can talk and see spirits. This technique allows him to use them to help with his challenges. They don't cause him to see perfectly, but point him in the right direction so his other senses can help him from there.
Requirements:Must start with, have Spirit summoning
Effect: summons a helpful spirit that allows allows Matthias to fight effectively against things he can not normally see. Meaning androids, undead (though he can see them slightly), machines, etc. accuracy of attacks against these targets is lowered by 25%
Cost: 3 for initial +1 for each post after.

Drain Soul
Description:Matthias can see the enemy's connection to the life stream this translates in CoC terms as MP. Because he can see this in people he knows where to take it from. He can summon a minor, mindless spirit to drain the enemy of their magical energy and transfer it to him.
Requirements: Blind Seer, Spirit summoning, Spirit: 60
Effect: Drains an amount of target MP equal to 15% Spirit stat and give it to the user. This does not work on androids or other lifeless things (still works on undead, but at 10% spirit instead of 15%). accuracy for this attack is (Spirit+Casting)/2.
Cost: 3

Approved Limit Breaks

Summon: Murderous Redcap [Level 1]
Description:With more concentration/desperation Matthias can summon more powerful spirits. This particular spirit is that of a fey known as a Red Cap. It is about half the size of a goblin and just as ugly. On its head is a dome like hat made of dried blood. The creature lunges at the enemy with a scythe. If the attack hits the spirit takes the blood from the scythe and whips it on his cap.
Requirements: Ability to use Level 1 Limit Breaks
Effect:Effect: Summons a Redcap for 3 posts. The summon's stats are as follow: Dodge and Accuracy is equal to Spirit, and Damage is equal to Spirit/2 as well. Damage done this way is not blocked by armor or partial dodging.

Approved Traits

Spirit Summoning
Description: Your basic Spirit appears to be nothing more than a typical ghost except a blueish green. They can take other forms if the summoner wishes. These spirits can be sent to attack the enemy as well with accuracy equal to (Spirit+Intelligence+ Casting)/3
Requirements: Be Subject IX
Effect: can summon different spirits and allows a basic attack based around the spirits. 1 spirit can be summoned for every 20 you have in the spirit stat and deals damage equal to Spirit stat*.5. This damage is unpreventable by armor. If the partial dodging condition is met (meaning that Dodge>Accuracy by 19% or less) then the attack still does full damage as it is pure Mako radiation.
Cost: 3 per Spirit.

Minor Mako Poisoning
Description: When the human body is exposed to high amounts of Mako energy the body begins to shut down. Because of the nature of the experiment and because it was in a controlled environment the mako poisoning did not do any real damage. In this minor case it simply causes the body to run less efficient, causing the body to become drained of energy by simple movement. Because of the Mako deposits in his body, Subject IX has a slightly harder time breathing, but the mako deposits do increase his magical potential slightly.
Requirements: Be Subject IX
Effect: 5% MP drain per post, takes a -5% to accuracy, dodge and power of physical attacks. -5% starting HP and +10% starting MP
Cost:

Blind Seer
Description:Though blind, Subject IX is directly connected to the life stream through the experiments done on him and the Cetra DNA that was injected into him. He is able to see in a complete 250 foot radius sphere around him, but he can not see anything that is not connected to the life stream. The world to him looks to be different shades of blueish green with black where there is no life or magic.
Requirements: Be Subject IX
Effect: Can see all around him unless the object is dead or was never alive, such as iron, and steel. He can see Spirits and super natural phenomenons. Can still see magical items and materia. Materia seem to be the same color as they normally are (Summoning materia seem red, Support are still bright blue, Magic is still green, Command are still yellow,etc) he can still dodge normally, after the penalties for Minor Mako Poisoning, stated above. While dodging a weapon he can see that the enemy is in a stance as though holding a sword and can dodge based upon their movements, but can not judge where the blade begins or ends.
Cost:

Magic Savant
Description: Between the minor Mako poisoning and the Cetra DNA the subject is able to use magic much better than any other. Sadly though the mako poisoning does effect the physical body to the point where they are unable to use physical attacks efficiently
Requirements: Be Subject IX
Effect: can use Magic Materia at -25% MP cost and -25% casting requirement
Cost:

One with the Life stream
Description: Because he is injected with Cetra DNA Subject IX is able to use magic more effectively.
Requirements:Be Subject IX
Effect: +10 to Spirit, Magic, and Intelligence

Approved Items

Description: Click Me This magical item is a black teardrop shaped necklace. Its origin is unknown, but it is said that the item is a ghost's tear and thus is connected to the life stream, giving its user some of the energy of the life stream.
Weight: 1
Effect: 2% of total MP recovered each post.
Cost: 150 Gil

mmm i knew someone would bring that up, but the way i see it is that you are allowed 1 free minor good thing (in my case i used it for the "One With the Life Stream" which is a copy of "Mako Boost"). Other people may not agree with that statement, but still that is how i see it.

Mako poisoning for an obvious magic user is absolutely horrible -5% of your main mode of function gone each post meaning that there are only 20 posts IF you do nothing at all, but with the obvious way this character is going to function his MP is not going to last that long. My thoughts is that aspect of it cancels out the spirit summoning trait. the -5% to physical things i feel cancel's out "Magic Savant"

Blind Seer is as you said a kinda good thing, and it cancels itself out i feel because of how machines, undead, anything that is not connected to the life stream can easily be garbled up by things that he can see. the only way they would appear as anything to him is if they had materia in them or if they were right on the edge of his line of sight where there would be no "back ground noise" to cover them up in which case they would appear as black masses. I should make that more clear, but does that make sense?

so the Distribution i see is:

Good Thing
Really Bad Thing
Neutral Thing
Minor Good thing
Free be

now if you would rather i was thinking of increasing the penalty to dodge, physical attack, and so on to -10%. do you think that would be more appropriate?

Change Magic Servant so the reduce costs and requirements are only Magic Materia. That way you can't get a benefit from Command Materia even though your trait is magic based.

I just noticed something that's broken.

This damage is unpreventable by armor, spells, stats, ect


I could have sworn it used to be only armor. I was fine with only armor... but spells and stats should reduce the damage still. Especially spells that are designed for blocking damage since it's... magic.

I can understand Armor not doing it since it's a physical matter, but spells aren't.

it was originally, but it was a typo that i noticed later on and what i meant was the "armor, spells, stats, etc" that you mentioned. so that was me fixing a typo that i forgot to mention. sorry if it made it look like i was trying to be underhanded.

I edited it in the first post though to just armor and partial dodging.

We'll try to keep this simple, and do away with the HP and Limit Break maths. The main thing I have a gripe with is that this lasts for Limit Break/10 and has HP. I'd prefer a simple 'lasts X posts.'

For a Level 1 Limit Break, you have rougly 1.5*stat worth of things to spend here. What I'd suggest is:

Effect: Summons a Redcap for 3 posts. The summon's stats are as follow: Dodge and Accuracy is equal to Spirit, and Damage is equal to Spirit/2 as well. Damage done this way is not blocked by armor or partial dodging.

How's that sound? :D

mmm ok...3 turns sounds reasonable, but i would prefer something that makes my summons last longer, i can get an accessory that does that though if it becomes a problem.

the summon's HP though is needed though because of the fact that it is a killable creature. if someone kills it then it does nothing.

You're only short changing yourself if you want HP on it ._.

You're creature would die in two sword strikes from only a moderately strong person. This won't make the thing invincible, because when they get hit they'll still get hurt (roleplay it), but this way they can recover and attack again.
