Spoiler: Your lovely narrator (click to show/hide)

(http://cdn.awwni.me/qrpc.jpg)

Somewhere, far away... no farther... a bit farther... THERE! Somewhere about that far away people do not behave like us. They have some odd thing about them that makes them anywhere from about as strong as us to able to kill us in one punch. Somewhere in the middle, is you 'heroes'. You are... Martial Artists. You guys get to run around and defend the weak instead of work in an office and feel your soul getting sapped by your painful existence. You are going to fight for the order of the Red Dragon, and find out where that thing he wants is. You know, the thing that crashed through the forest and was quickly taken by some thugs a couple months ago? That thing. Anyways, you... You guys need to fill out these forms before you actually go out and test the system... Huh? I didn't say anything about a system. Just fill out the fucking forms.

Spoiler: Those forms you need to fill out. (click to show/hide)

Name:  What do they call you besides your title? We’re all friend here even if some people don’t act like it.
Title:  What people will call you after your reputation spreads a bit. The more epic but simple, the better.
Gender:  If your outward appearance is different from what it actually is, do make note of that. After all, it’s not an anime until a pervert accidentally flirts with a man.
Appearance:  How you look. Be sure to include your usual outfit, because you’re pretty much never going to take it off.

Stats:  The stuff that pulls out the marginal differences between characters. All stats start at 1 and increase your rolls at a one to one basis.

Will:  This is your health and is calculated as 5+your willpower
Second Wind Will:  Half of your total Will

Willpower:  Gives bonuses to targeted attacks, and increases second wind health if it’s your highest stat.
Strength:  Gives bonuses to reckless strikes and increases damage after a Second Wind if it’s your highest stat.
Dexterity:  Gives bonuses to quick attacks and gives a second attack after a Second wind.
Intelligence:  Increases team attack damage and gives a teleport after a Second wind.
Charisma:  Increase the effectiveness of Convincing and allows for the stunning of any one target after a second wind.
Luck:  Increases the effectiveness Shooting and Allows for a THIRD wind.

Class:  Determines which of your stats starts where and what perks you can take.
Brawlers specialize in strength (+1 strength) using overwhelming force to defeat their enemies, but lack the willpower(-1) others have.
Artists Specialize in dexterity(+1) using huge amounts of blows to get through the defence of others but are less intelligent(-1).
Monks Have willpower(+1) on their side and use fast calculated moves to slow down foes alongside their inability to accept defeat to stay in the fight longer, but are not as damaging(-1) as their fellows.
Ninja attack using dirty tactics(+1 Intelligence) to surprise and demoralise their enemy, but are naturally slower to act(-1 Dexterity).
Charmers talk(+1 Charisma) their enemies down from attacking and are generally well liked. This makes them unlucky(-1 luck) because it makes them an obvious first choice for being attacked by heartless enemies.
Everymen are pretty much normal and use guns(+1 luck) unlike their companions who seem to have never moved past knives and swords and other pre-gunpowder weapons. Sadly, they are also natural targets for more charismatic people to lie about and make seem bad. (-1 Charisma)

Perks:  Can only take perks from your class list and the general category.

... You probably want some explanations. It's a good thing I already wrote them up!

Spoiler: Attack list (click to show/hide)

Reckless strike attacks Dexterity
Quick attack targets Intelligence
Targeted attacks hit Strength
Convincing due to it's nature of talking out the problem attacks willpower
Shooting is rolled against the target's highest stat due to the fact that a martial artist will always see the bullet coming which balances out the fact that it's the only attack that can occur at range.
And flanking attacks occur so long as the attacker is attacking from a flank in melee.

Each of the attacks and their relevant defense gets the total bonus on the roll added. Also of note is that the stats can be used in the same way as attacking in other situations.

Oh, you don't already know you're perks? Weird. Obviously I already know what they are since I'm looking at you. Well, don't worry, I have a list here as well. If there's any I missed, do tell me and we can negotiate it going on the list.

Spoiler: perks for everyone (click to show/hide)

Half-human hybrid:  So you’re a half human eh? Wonder how THAT worked… +3 damage against monstrous beings.

Eyepatch:  Everyone knows that eyepatches make you better at stuff. + 1 defence

Knife:  About Time +2 Will

Magic:  It’s the kind you punch things with. +1 Targeted Strike damage.

Determination:  The sight of your enemies falling before you… Fills you with determination. +1 will per turn.

Spoiler: Brawler (click to show/hide)

Pre-asskicking one liner:  You drop a one liner before you turn them into a flat liner. +3 attack against thugs

Suplex:  Dude, you really don’t need to keep suplexing boulders. +1 reckless strike damage.

Thugdere:  It’s a well known fact that attacking the people you like is the best way to tell them how you feel. +3 against nerds.

Spoiler: Charmer (click to show/hide)

Cute little fang:  Isn’t it weird how this isn’t restricted to non-humans? +3 against Guardians

Scars:  Oh, those look bad. +2 Will

Cheek Kiss: *Chuu* Heal someone for 3 Will

Spoiler: Monk (click to show/hide)

Pressure point attack:  Really, this is just one of many techniques that monks master. And one of the most useful. Targeted attacks deduct one point from dexterity.

Stoic:  The jury is still out on whether this is cute or cool. Guardians have -3 when fighting you.

Heroic Will:  When you go down, everyone notices All Allies have +1 the turn after you activate your second wind.

Spoiler: Artist (click to show/hide)

Fast strike:  Ora ora ora…! +1 damage when using quick attack.

Arrogance:  You’re a real know it all aren’t you? +5 when fighting other artists

Ancient Technique:  Passed down the Armstrong line ect. +3 when fighting Nerds

Spoiler: Ninja (click to show/hide)

Shadow Clone Jutsu:  It’s gonna be a pain carrying around all those logs… When in melee range and  not flanking an opponent the ninja can instantly flank their opponent.

Yoink:  Let’s see, wallet, keys, lighter, spare change, and… that’s all that’s in their pants, let’s go. Stun enemies on rolling a natural twenty.

Glasses: They don’t actually let you see better… +3 damage against nerds.

Spoiler: Everyman (click to show/hide)

Gun-chucks:  They may appear stupid and ineffective, but who’s gonna be ineffective when they’re getting their shit kicked in by an idiot using GUN-CHUCKS? +1 when Shooting.

Modern Knowledge:  Seriously, you’re the only one who went to a public school? +3 when trying to remember things.

Air Horn:  You must be xXx420smokeweedxxX! Attack twice on a natural twenty.

Now then, chop chop, can't keep the Red Dragon waiting.

Intelligence would be 0 but it looks fine otherwise.

Title: Re: Martial Arts Madness Test thread
Post by: USEC_OFFICER on October 27, 2015, 02:34:29 pm

I thought as much. It's just that Elf's brawler doesn't have 0 willpower so I was somewhat confused.

You are right, although I wouldn't be so agressive about it.
