It would be helpful to have some sort of reference or set of examples to aid in determining the price that custom powers should be.

Also I don't know if it's intentional but it seems like the most effective strategy here is to buy ability growth and then buy as many powers as possible at level 1 since they'd be able to grow stronger very quickly.

>>14261

"Unlimited power" can only be achieved by taking nearly every single debuff so you can get to 30 and then buy one of the three chaos god powers. You'll be a torso with no arms and no legs but you'll be able to timetravel - so-to-speak. Powershift (20) gets you every single little baby power anyhow, if that's all you want.

>>14247

>>Power Level: Godly

The Egregores. They were never meant to exist individual, as they would rend existence asunder with their single-minded ideals. No, they were once parts of something greater, something… singular.

>>The Egregores: Neutral (19)

I am also a part of that singular. Or I was. I'm sure there are other pieces of that singular scattered around, here and there.

>>Classification: Neutral

My limited existence is intoxicating. Like a child given shrunk to an ant's size and given a normal cake. I wish to experience as much as I can before our dreaded reconvergence.

>>Costume, Base, Income and Banking, Superhuman Associations and Reputations: None

Came to alone and naked. Never found a need for material acquisition, since I can get whatever I want anyway. Friendships with "superpowered" beings are at the mid-point of my nigh-infinite bucket list of things to do. I do not foresee it to be interesting, being as to me, they are as ant-like as normal humans; and those that are equal to me in power are only other aspects of us that I've spent eternity and a day with prior, and am in no hurry to meet again.

>>Grab-Bag

>Ability Growth (18)

Born anew, I don't remember everything that I once held. I need time.

>Buttery Smooth (17)

That's not to say that I have trouble with making use of what I do remember. One does not have trouble waving his arms around, only remembering how many arms he actually has.

>Power Locks (16)

My other aspects can choose to give away parts of themselves, though that leaves them open to being mugged. Caution is the better part of valor, I say.

>Metaphysical Armor (15)

It seems there are aspects of us that are either actively helping us, or were subsumed into the fabric of reality. Either way, we are protected in ways that could only be described as "cheating".

>Self-Aware (14)

>Psychic Blocks (13)

>Identity Concealment (12)

I ascribe to the latter theory. I believe even I am partially subsumed into the fabric of reality.

>>Greater Powers: Continuum (-8)

This is how I figured out our origins, as opposed to our various other aspects. I was born with little memory or knowledge of how I came to be, so I stepped back in time, and saw us. We were glorious. We were terrible. We were annoying blocks of blue cheese muchkins, drifting through the omniverse, seeking new experiences. Omnipotence seemed to have bored us to star-extinguishing tears. We decided to try something different: split ourselves into a great many, and experience reality as aspects. I can say with certainty that our obnoxiousness is colossal as it is magnificent.

>>Disadvantages

>Eldritch (-7)

There are parts of us not of a halfway benevolent nature.

I shall embrace my inner munchkin: a time loop from the moment I was born, to the moment the first of our flakes come in contact with earth.

Once I bore myself of this planet, I can visit others.

Once my powers have "grown" to the level where I can teleport my troubles away, I will do away with the loops.

>Material Weakness (-5)

Germanium. I have no idea why.

Being as I can manipulate space and time, "10 meters" is highly relative.

>Public Enemy #1 (-3)

The governments seem to employ a great many with Psychic Blocks. They know I am causing the world to enter time loops incessantly. They don't know why. They don't care. They cannot suffer me to live.

>>Other

>Author (-1)

No designs, sorry.

>Thanks for playing (0)

More images would be better. Once you graduate from the template, try Photoshop, and go crazy with fonts and backgrounds.

For the Grab-Bag powers, try to merge the powers, and add a small entry where you explain the upgrade.

For the base/money/friends section, try to take the common parts and add them to a header section (e.g. "you may choose to reveal your wealth to the public or not"). Minimize duplicity.

Power Locks 2 (-1)

Psychic Blocks 2 (-1)

Metaphysical Armor 2 (-1)

Powers

Mental: Enhanced Intelligence 1 (-1)

Aberrant: Demonic Soul 1 (-1)

This is mostly to open up a path for higher metaphysical growth down the line. Entry level applications include fear aura, synergy with certain types of magic, and intuition on how to best cause pain.

Greater Powers

Archmage (-18)

Companions

Ally: Alexander Krause

Rival: Theodore (+1)

Mentor: Quantum

Setting Change: urban fantasy Earth, circa early 1800s. Conventional superheroes do not exist and the Egregores grant powers much more rarely, but other supernatural entities (gods, spirits, faeries, demons, etc) are much more active. No titans. Quantum is found in an anachronistic secret laboratory located in the remote wilderness, seemingly transported there from an alternate reality with far more advanced technology. There exist certain other cosmic deities and beings on par with the Egregores. Also it's anime.

Author (+2)

Backstory is just isekai-style self-insert. First on my to-do list is to do something about my body. Ideally I'd like to divorce the reliance my soul has on my body; I'd like to maintain cognizance and control in event of brain death. Aside from some other functional mystic body modifications, just experimenting with the capabilities and nature of magic should be pretty interesting. Enhanced intelligence should synergize pretty well with this.

Thanks for Playing (+1)

More greater powers would be nice, or maybe a custom option.

A 'white' egregore would provide a good duality with the Prince and help more fully represent the emotions of humanity (if these are really psychic egregores).

A lot of the circumstance change perks seem to be made redundant by the setting change option. Additionally, it seems odd to charge you just for making the setting more interesting. Shouldn't you try to make the setting as interesting as possible from the get-go? It's not like making aliens or gods exist provides any direct benefit to you.

With the addition of rivals, most disadvantages seem pretty imbalanced with how little points you get compared to what you could get just by taking another rival.

I would probably never take the option but there really shouldn't be an arbitrary limitation to how you can use the wealth you get from the income and banking options; this is just a poorly designed attempt to cover up the imbalance between purchasing wealth and purchasing costumes and bases.

Vigilante and Neutral classifications seem almost identical if you don't hold an extreme view like the systematic criminal-killing example given, but for some reason people hate vigilantes and try to convert neutrals. Defining good and evil as law-abiding and law-breaking is kind of strange, too; not very many superheroes and villains from fiction follow this kind of law-centric code of ethics, unless they work for the police or are an anarchists.

I have spent way too much time playing with this CYOA. Let me know if you think I misinterpreted my power levels. Also, I wanted to see if I could make a cool Medium or Low level build. I'm still working on that, but here is a High build.

>Power level: High (16)

>Alignment: Hero

>Egregore: Colbalt Monarch (17)

I had always been a very rational child. Think Sheldon Cooper, but somehow even more autistic. I just had to reason out everything. When I started having nightmares in high school, I started researching. As I read more and more, I began to understand that I had been called to a higher purpose.

>Grab bag:

>Ability Growth 2 (16)

>Self Aware 1 Metaphysical Armor 1 (15)

>Buttery Smooth 2 (14)

>Power Locks 2 (13)

>Psychic Blocks 2 (12)

>Human Limits 2 (11)

(Most of these are basically mandatory imo.)

>Powers:

>Personal 6 (5): I Am Alpharius

>Mental 4 (1): Hivemind

>Body 5 (-4): Strength

>Mobility 2 (-6)

I first discovered my powers when I acidentally split in two during gym class. I spent the next week at home "sick". Actually, I was experimenting with my powers. As I practiced, I discovered that I could split myself into clones. I can switch between bodies at will, making the body I'm in at the moment the "Alpha" body. The "Beta" bodies have my personality and powers. They are completely subservient to my will, and anything they learn and know, we all learn and know. I can have around 30 full clones at once. Past that point, the clones start "degrading" becoming stupider and weaker. I could create 300 clones, for example, but they'd be average people. A clone dying doesn't injure me. If my Alpha body is killed, my consciousness is auto-switched to a Beta body. You have to kill all my clones to kill me.

I (and my clones) can sprint at the speed of a cheetah, and can run a marathon in under 2 hours as a tempo run. Our reflexes are slightly above peak human level. I can't catch a bullet, but I can catch a fastball. I'm strong, too. One clone could lift a sedan above his head with mild effort. (Captain Cape could throw it across a football field. Theodore could launch it into orbit as a warmup.)

>Material Weakness (-4):

I'm probably the only person on Earth who vomits if they take a sip of Pepto-Bismol. My kryptonite is pure bismuth, and even the quarter-gram of bismuth in that Pepto-Bismol makes me ill. A chunk of pure bismuth would make me near comatose. As I get closer and closer to bismuth, my clones rapidly degenerate in quality and quantity.

>Subject Weakness (-3)

I have severe depression, and my clones have this aspect of my personality, too. The negative psychic energy of my clones can leave me an emotional wreck after a battle. But, evil doesn't care about how sad you are. Can I overcome my emotions to keep fighting when the time comes?

>Hopeless (-2)

My powers have made me incredibly lonely. When she broke up with me, my last girlfriend complained that she never knew if I was the real me. The fact that she didn't know that she was talking to a clone kind of proved her point.

>Hero Team 1 (-3)

Hey, everyone starts somewhere. I've joined a minor superhero group, defending the city of Denver, Colorado from superhuman threats. It's like an AA baseball team, and I can't help but notice that scouts for the state orginization sometimes tag along to help us on our missions. Soon, they'll recognize my power levels as being something to watch. It might take a couple years, but I'll move up.

>Costume 1 (-4)

My powers require a suit that can replicate like my clones. It's a formfitting bodysuit, forest green with the Greek letter alpha on my chest.

>Companions:

>Ally: Powers

My clones are my best friends. We are a perfect team, with no selfishness or miscommunication.

>Mentor: Conspirator

While he may dislike the law, Conspirator just wants to help people however he can. Does he like the system? No. In fact, I kind of expect him to snap one day. I try to keep him on the right side of the law. He pumps my clones full of the same steroids he uses, buffing them to the point of lifting pick-up trucks.

>Rival: Theodore (-3)

I still can't figure out Theodore. He doesn't like me for some reason. Maybe it's because of Conspirator. He made one "Roid Rage" joke when Theodore was acting as a scout, and it pissed Theodore off, big time.

>Backstory (-1)

>Feedback: (0)

I really love this CYOA. The one thing I wish is that there were more examples of power levels. The compainions were a great add-on in that regard. Maybe add an optional info page with a few superheros and their power stats for comparison? (Superman is Body 9, Mobility 6, Ranged 3)

Setting Change: No Titans. Traditional superheroes with capes and such do not really exist, and government backing of superhumans is generally done in secret. Gods and other supernatural entities unrelated to the egregores exist and some can rival them in power.

Egregorian Blessings

Onyx Apostle (-.5)

Author(+2)

Same as before. Decided to switch to shapeshifting because magic would probably be able to give me metaphysical growth, and it'd be better to be able to use shapeshifting innately than have to cast a spell every time.

Thanks for Playing (+1)

There's no reason to buy flourishing void or pantheon when the setting change option exists. And again, you shouldn't need to pay just to make the setting more interesting.

Negentrophy is extremely broken.

Meta knowledge implies that we need to play this by making a character, a lot of people prefer to do self-inserts. This option should be a given, and I assumed that it was until this update.

Pale Lord implementation was done really well.

>Quantum now gives a point for being taken as a Rival/Foe

>Slight nerf to Aurora's telepathic abilities, to keep Psychon relevant.
