Thanks for the invitation 🪄 ✨. I'll have a read through the level 2 thread to get an idea for posting style and then submit a character sheet for my fairy girl.
Welcome!

A read is fine. I was buying time for the fairy-girl player to post, but it seems we got to the action on page 2. The party split, but that won’t happen in Level 3 since you’ll all be on a ship.

Fairy warning: I’ll update the code for this game sometime next week, which means the die rolls in the Lv.2 thread will no longer denote success/failure.


@FlyingSucculent speaking of code, the two-column thing you want to do on your character sheet should be fine. Basically, any addition that doesn’t rearrange what I wrote won’t cause any issues (with obvious exceptions like a missing [/f]).

My only suggestion is that you keep the roll tables easily accessible because the code that displays MISS / 💥HIT / 💥💥COMBO is looking for specific words and punctuation marks. (And I also think it’s convenient for you, the players, if you don’t need to remember your stats. Just press DODGE and FIGHT, if that’s how you want to act in a combat round.)

Meet Luna Frostfluff! A tiny fairy from a land of late snow in spring, where frost melts from flowers, and ice dances in the bright sun.

First to try at an image... Might adapt later today.

Cute! Approved!

I’ll get a post up so Luna can hitch a ride on Pinky, the P5’s starship. Not today though—I’m about to drive my wife and daughters all over the place.

Updated the sheet, let me know if you want me to change anything. (Also, forgot to mention that I was amused by the Legendary Sidekick move a lot. XD)

Do I get to do these now (except with a heel)? :>

Level 1: rename TOONY GIRL.
• Level 2: add a 🚨 or a 🧡.
• Level 3: add +1D to 🕹️, ㊙️ or ☢️.

Those results will look right when I update the code.

Yes to leveling to Lv.3.

You get either a heart or an item symbol.
And improve one stat to 3D.

Do item/heart improvements works as max possible improvements? So if I take the item, I now can have a max of 👠👠👠?
Also I'll take 👠 for level 2 and ㊙️ for level 3.

Yes.

Also, please update your special attacks’ roll table with this one.

[table=rolls compact]
Reason|Roll
㊙️☢️ [_$=but]!|[_$=sec+nuk]d6
🕹️☢️ [_$=csh] [_$=qcn]!|[_$=joy+nuk]d6
🕹️㊙️ [_$=lsk] [_$=air]!|[_$=joy+sec]d6
[/table]


The rest of your character sheet is fine. This is to fix my error. (You won’t need to retype your moves, or anything else you already updated.)

Ah, not enough exclamation points I see.
Updated. :P

I had the word ATTACK! to cover the !, but the code ignores that. So yeah, I moved the punctuation to your attack names. It’s just to avoid an ugly coding error if all your dice are <5. I think it would say = 0 instead of MISS. We’d know it’s a miss, but it would look dumb. (Also, if all dice are <3, you’ll get a 💥HIT.)

Okay.. I still have character sheets to update, but you don’t need dice to talk to each other. Let’s get Luna on board. You can hang out… then I’ll do something horrible and mean.

@Dmbrainiac finally, I finished your sheet. BARBY GIRL’s was tricky. The joke behind this character is based on my personal Diablo II experience in which I played an Amazon named Robo_Barbie.

She was awesome. Seriously… low-level armor and always the sole survivor even with other players 25 levels above me. (I may have unwittingly set off lightning enchanted enemies, which didn’t hurt me, but anyway…)

So you have this Amazon. She kicks ass. But what am I doing? I’m constantly dressing her up, and what’s the next step after finally collecting all of the Angel Armor set? Why, bedazzling my armor with the perfect diamond, of course!

So Barby Girl/Thundra’s female armor is based more on this than say, Monster Hunter. The writers of Barbaric Commando can wait for players to reach level 6 to earn Queen Hippo’s Wrestling Sash. But the artists made it a pink bow, which wraps up the PC like a Tiffany’s gift box!
So your level-up instructions are this:

THUNDRA THE THICC
Lv.3

Level 1: Rename BARBY GIRL!

Level 2: Add 👗 to your ITEM slot,
~OR~ add 🩵 to your LIFE bar.

Level 3: Add +1D to 🕹️, ㊙️ or ☢️.

@Alepous I was not happy with the character sheet I created for you, so I moved it to the end of the line. The moves are good—you’ll be effective in fights, but not in a way that has you and Pira stepping on each other’s toes.

Pira is all about insane combos.
Kurumi is all about movement and inspiration.

Where I felt I had failed was here: Peppy Girl is a celebration of the music in games. So I put some time and thought into how to get her item abilities on-theme, and I think I finally nailed it. I’ll do the rewrite and sit on it a little more.
@Dmbrainiac One quick note for you: armor is better than a 🩵, but you can heal 🩵s. Any armor that you sacrifice or remove is gone until the start of a new level.

I personally feel that +ITEM (or +🔑 at Lv.4) is the better choice, but adding hearts to your LIFE bar is an option at every even #’d level.

@FlyingSucculent,@Dmbrainiac,@Alepous,@Tickettbror,@Ysolde,@Qralloq

Character sheets are DONE!!! Please follow the leveling-up instructions. (Admittedly, a clunky post. I want a more video-gamey presentation for Lv.4.)

I’ll give everyone the rest of the day to keep RP going. Anyone in the pilot or engineer seat can get Luna on board. (Even though Casanova hasn’t unlocked the Beam yet, we can let engineers beam the fairy up.)

Took my daughters to the arcade today. (Not classic games, but more up-to-date stuff.)

I might have found some inspiration while I was here…

Never thought it that way, thank you! I was confused after some point because dance attacks can do only so much.
