No, and really there shouldn't be.

Dex is already such a ridiculously strong stat.

There are plenty of moes around the place, I'm sure you must have seen more than just Mikuru. There's Hinata, for starters. Rei from NGE, what's-her-face in TTGL, almost everyone but Kallen in Code Geass (), Yomiko from Read or Die, bunch of faces I forgot in Bleach, etc.

I'll probably go for the very spirit of moe itself.

Yeah, I figured as much. Guess I'll just drug him up some more.

Weapon/Armor seals?

You buy an item. You buy a seal slot for that item. You buy the seal. Apply seal to seal slot. Receive sealed item.

I meant calculating the cost for it! It maketh no sense

If I'm not mistaken:

There will be two purchases. One is your base item plus the seal slot cost, and the second is the seal itself.

... You're humorous in this?

In the seals it describes a ludicrous method for obtaining price

Oh. I seem to have mixed it up with the armor enhancement "seals", which are bonuses to the purchase DC instead of being separate purchases themselves.

The method is as follows:

Buy your item. Buy your seal slot for your item(page 126 describes this). Buy your seal(they start on page 1057). None of these are modifiers to any other roll, and they're all self-contained.

The only modifier comes in if Trace is going to have the crafter charge you for putting them together. That's on page 138.

I have literally no idea where you're getting this modifier thing from.

Maybe I am overcomplicating it. Is it jus the Purchase DC for the seal?

EDIT: Both way ninja'd and I figured out what I was doing wrong.

Oh god, that overcomplicated mess... Right, what item is it that you want to get a seal for?

If you can't figure it out, Jacior, I don't blame you. How about this, if you can't wrap your head around the normal rules: You can apply a number of seals to an item equal to 1+it's mastercraft bonus. You buy the seal seperately and are assumed to have permanently bonded them to one item of your choosing. Somehow missed an hour old edit. Good that you got it I suppose

I could very easily whip up some sort of item that would let you apply seals to your bone weapons I think. And maybe bone armour

You're both overcomplicating quite a lot. Getting seals is no different than buying another item. They all have flat easily read DCs.

As far as items that apply seals: Calcium Cleaver from Relics Repository gives him an enhancement bonus to attack rolls in addition to his enhancement bonus to damage from his Dead Bone Pulse.

Trace, I won't have a sheet ready until sometime in the afternoon/evening PST. Just thought I would let you know.

I'll take your word for it, Zero. Even at your worst you're way more proficient in these mechanics than I. Speaking of which, I have yet to issue a weighted decision on the Sakuya's uniform equipment, I should probably get on that.

It's all good Bad. Take your time, I just like knowing when things are coming. Let's see now, what could tempt Yousuke into staying in this alternate world I wonder...

Let me get that when I return from work.

In the meantime, do the Intensity trainings require one Chakra Growth Pill per each training, or just one suffices to unlock them all? The text hints to the latter, but I wanted to be sure.

Never saw it before in my life. What age will alternate Momo be - in fact, what age is current Momo? That has to be on some sheet I have somewhere, right...? Hm. Oh wait, I think the OP of the regular OOC said she was 15

How's everyone's characters coming along? Working out the plot now...

I also figured out something fairly horrifying: Houshi and Cybele are each the other's opposite. Therefore, y'know, Zeone you should totally go back to the drawing board and make a stealthy character just to shake things up

Original was 15. This one could be... I don't know, 18?

Also, give Read or Die a try. You might enjoy it.

Ooh, 18. Are you playing her more risque with her more moe thing going on? Since you have a Mikuru Beam power, should I give you a Haruhi? Amon's known for being intrusive and hyperactive - or, better yet.. ufufufufu~

Spoiler


Read or Die, you say? Eh, I'll look into it I guess.

Well Rion, I have your sheet now. Since you're playing normal Takuya, I guess you'll be using an updated version of him? It doesn't look like you're too into powergaming so don't worry about it.

I updated that since I sent it to you.

Also: Me, powergame? perish the thought! I'll let the others be useful. And Takuya's bloodline never..uh, activated during gameplay.

Well, everyone else is going level 10 for this campaign. You could always just use Takuya as is and hope to not get involved in any climactic showdowns I guess. OOH, I know - what if I give you a few power ranks and, say, 3 techniques of up to 10th level? If you don't have the time to make something from scratch, that quick fix may do the trick No that would be dumb.

Stupidly obvious advice of the day: I'd strongly suggest using a seperate sheet so as to not overwrite Takuya for normal use

Odd choice of bloodline. I could be wrong, but I think you were supposed to spend your level on your bloodline this level anyway. Ah, guess it doesn't matter.

I figured it never made any sense if it was a dormant bloodline to have to spend levels on it. All it's actually doing is taking up a feat slot.
