Hello! Welcome to Broken Futures!

Although we are a based on Dragon Ball keep in mind that we use it for the elements the show brought to us. We are not using ANY canon characters, only the world in which the show was built on. We are mostly a free form RPG with some stats to help track character growth. However, for the most part, your stats only matter in important fights or large events ran by a GM/DM.

Posted Image

We don't have any specific guidelines on what can or cannot be written about. So long as the Zetaboards ToS isn't violated. If a topic gets mature, keep it reasonable and do your best not to violate the host ToS. We don't like to limit you to what you want to write about and will trust your judgement not to make any posts in the extreme.

We are set in Future Trunks' timeline so the world is in ruin. Which would classify it as post-apoc. It's always been the best-styled setting to build a new world on top of. We have built this site to be based around the actions of the players. You will help build the world you're playing in. Every action within major events will influence how the world structures itself.

We have no word count, no canon face claims, no post formatting and no drama. We want you to come here and have fun. Before you sign up, please look over the Game a bit to decide if you are interested. After you've made an account make sure to introduce yourself here and say hello in the Chatbox. We love new members and are a very welcoming bunch of people.

I changed the attack to this, instead.

Descending Storm Strike [1:3] Attack
The user extends one hand forward and discharges an invisible blast of concussive energy from their palm; alternatively, the user may launch the attack from a foot.
Anyone struck by the blast will be knocked back a great distance and will receive the user’s Spirit*0.8 in damage.
{60 Spirit} -4% PL, may be used once every other level per post.

I'm scrapping the Dark Sword in favor of something simpler and less cancerous.

Jack’s sword [1:10]

A hand-and-a-half sword completely ordinary in appearance and without decoration. Standard features include a round pommel, a synthetic grip, and a brass guard. Jack intentionally dulled its sharp edges to prevent it from ever cutting anyone after he finished creating it. Its shoddy appearance mirrors the humble nature of its master, which is ironic given the fact that the sword possesses no reflective surface.

Attacks with this sword represent Strength in damage and deal an additional 15% of the attacker's strength in damage.
This sword grants +5 Strength per level, but only when attacking with it.

{Immense Physical Prowess, 90 Strength, and Ki Manifestation} None

This is what I am requesting...Descending Storm Strike was already approved.

Mechanically the sword is fine, I'm still stewing on if +5 per level is too much on top of what else it has going for it. I'm rattling my brain at +3 or 3.5 per level.

Edit:maybe a cost per swing/post would make sense, as it is a ki manifestation weapon. Dunno.

Will this clear the confusion we have?

Jack intentionally dulled its sharp edges to prevent it from ever cutting anyone after he finished creating it.

Attacks with this sword deal Strength*0.75 damage.

The only thing that concerns me about this weapon is the eventual truth that ATBS will come along-side it. The only other item I've approved with this big of a stat increase is


Quote:
 
Eyes on the Inside [10:10] Armor
This simple looking pendant is actually a very powerful magical artifact.
When worn, the magic in this amulet effects the thoughts of the user, enabling them to have much more magical power through magical understanding. For each level the amulet gives the user +5 wisdom for use in stat checks.


The requirements accidentally got removed after awhile (this was one Talon's nerfed items) but the crafting stuff was all there with like 100 wisdom req too. I think these two items are similar in a lot of ways, and although I think they're both incredibly powerful, a lot of items are.

I'll approve it.

I realized that Soul Crafter needs an update so it doesn't have as much math to it.

Trader's Soul Crafter [1:5] Item
A gauntlet worn on the left hand that enables its creator to manipulate their energies with greater ease and efficiency. It grants the following effects.
[5:5] Increases Jack's Max PL by 10%.
[5:5] Restores 2 PL for every 5 PL spent.

This is (semi) the equivalent to 40% extra current power level (8% per level as a 1:5, although this IS just for spending) And extra max PL on top. I think 10 levels is appropriate (and says fuck you to the words 'per level')

This soul crafter is lot more efficient than the old one, right? Wasn't the old one like 1 pl for every 25?

at [5:5], the old one was 5 PL restored for every 25 spent. The "Current PL" increase on the old one was supposed to give Jack more PL to spend, but that doesn't make much sense when all costs are %, right?

I am updating Fan the Flame.

Fan the Flame [1:4] Ability
This ability sharpens the resolve of a human the longer they remain in combat, making it even harder to bring them down.
The user receives 5% reduced Physical Damage per 5% missing PL up to a maximum reduction of 10% per level.
{100 Strength, Undying Will} -None-

Test the Spirit [1:4] Ability
This ability sharpens the resolve of a human the longer they remain in combat, making it even harder to bring them down.
The user receives 5% reduced Mental Damage per 5% missing PL up to a maximum reduction of 10% per level.
{100 Spirit, Undying Will} -None-

Instead of maxing an existing ATBS to learn 1 ATBS that reduces all damage, I am planning to learn two separate ATBS, each reducing a different category of damage. I also increased the stat requirements for each so that the reduction scales in 5% increments instead of 8% increments and the levels max at 4 instead of 5. The maximum reduction remains the same 40%.

Thanks and here's a simplified version of Wall.

Against the Wall [1:2] Technique
Jack manifests a wall of energy at a target location.
Allows the use of 1 of the following Effects:
Blocks the damage of one Physical attack.
Intercepts a target to deal Spirit in damage.
{Ki Manifesting, Be Jack} -10% PL, once per level.

That's fine. I'm in no rush to learn this stuff. I do have another, but this is mostly for plot purposes.

Demonic Wrath [1:5] Item-Curse
Accepting half of Astraea’s wrath has already proven detrimental to Jack’s sanity and health. This curse forces Jack to sense Astraea’s physical and emotional anguish (no matter how small or great) and alerts him to her location even if he cannot reach her. It has also implanted a dependency within Jack to keep the sword with him at all times in case he might need it to locate and rescue Astraea.

Jack gains the following effects whenever he wields his sword.

+5% Max PL per level
Reduces Spirit by 10

{Astraea's Approval, Jack’s sword [10:10], Rename the item type of Jack's sword to "cursed weapon"} -None-

Considering the sword already grants him a massive Strength boost for his attacks, I figure a Max PL boost would be more fair than adding another Strength increase to the curse.

Would this be an acceptable edit for AtW?

Against the Wall [2:2] Technique
Jack manifests a wall of energy at a target location that allows the use of 1 of the following effects before it shatters:
Any Level-Blocks one Physical attack.
[2:2]-Intercepts an enemy to deal Spirit in damage.
{Ki Manifesting, 100 Spirit, Be Jack} -10% PL, Once per level per thread.
