I have literally not set up any google sheet for this at all yet, but I wanted to just start this up right this instance before I delayed any further.

This game will be a "Riot Chaoslike" in which unit movement will be determined by everyone. The reason why is explained below in spoilers, but if you'd rather play this blind than be my guest:



Your character has assembled with many others before the Ruins of Memory, the gateway into the Dark Carnival. The Dark Carnival is an organization of deadly Paradox-Powered Clowns who you have absolutely had up to here with. You have decided that you are going to kill all the Juggalos and topple their Holy Princes, no matter what it takes.

But first, the Enchanted Seal protecting the Ruins of Memory is only freed every 20 years. If you want to get into the Dark Carnival, you must first get past this Seal.

Begin.

CHARACTER CREATION:

Your character starts with 20 Base HP and 20 KP. You can allocate KP to any of the following stats:

MHP: Your Health Total. Increases HP by 2 for each KP.

Increasing all other stats takes 1 KP per point up to the current softcap of 10, after which it takes double KP to increase(ex: it takes 10 KP for 10 ATK, but 12 KP for 11 ATK.)
ATK: How much damage you deal. +1 Damage per ATK.
AVO: How dodgy you are.
HIT: How accurate you are.
DEF: How durable you are.
SPC: How powerful your Skills are. More on that later.

Accuracy is determined by rolling (Your HIT)/(Enemy AVO). If this number is over 100%, you instead roll CRIT, which is (Your Hit-Enemy AVO)/(Enemy AVO).

Now, Skills. For now, just make up any 3 skills. You may have noticed there's no MP. That's because Skills are now cooldown-based. Below are some example skills. Feel free to make up your own skills.



Also, your weapon. Make any weapon, I'll rebalance it later. I just want fresh meat characters in this game ASAP. If you have any questions just ping or DM me on Discord.

Okay bye

+2 AVO
+4 ATK
+2 HIT

SKILLS:
BEING BURNED ALIVE (COOLDOWN 6)
SET ALL ENTITIES IN RANGE 1 ON FIRE. ENTITIES WHICH ARE ON FIRE DEAL FIRE DAMAGE TO NON-ON-FIRE ENTITIES IN RANGE 1 OF THEM, RESIST FIRE DAMAGE, AND HEAL SLOWLY OVER TIME. IF AN ENTITY WHO IS ON FIRE WOULD DIE, DISPEL THE FIRE, THEN HEAL THEM FOR 3 HP (IF THAT DOESN'T FIX IT THEY STILL DIE, UNLIKE GUTS STATUS)

EVERYTHING IS MOTHS (COOLDOWN 2+)
TARGET ANYTHING WHICH ISN'T AN ALLY OR ENEMY. IT IS REVEALED TO BE MOTHS AND ALL ITS PROPERTIES (HP, TILES COVERED, AVO BONUS, ETC) BECOME MOTH PROPERTIES (HPS WORTH OF MOTHS, NUMBER OF DISTINCTLY TRACKED MOTH SPACES, MOTH AVO). THE BIGGER THE THING IS, THE LONGER THE COOLDOWN. THIS COOLDOWN PERSISTS BETWEEN BATTLES, IF THAT'S A THING. MOTHS HAVE MINIMAL BUT NONZERO VALUES IN IMPORTANT STATS THEY DIDN'T COPY FROM THE TARGETED THINGS, LIKE BASE 1 ATTACK AND BASE 3 HP AND BASE 1 HIT. MOTHS WHICH ARE ON FIRE BENEFIT AT DOUBLED RATE.

No defined location

...There appears to be a Wither Skeleton sitting on a giant Spider for some reason. Both are very obviously as blocky as they come in their source material. Thankfully, the... Wither Jockey doesn't appear to be attacking anyone.

Yet.

Interesting side note, it appears the Wither Skeleton is wearing a Netherite helmet. Huh. Wonder where he got that from.


MHP: 40 (base + 10 KP)
ATK: +2 KP
AVO: 0 KP
HIT: +2 KP
DEF: +6 KP
SPC: 0 KP

Weapon: Scorched Iron Sword
A trophy from a past victorious battle. This iron sword has been through literal hellfire, yet holds together by a miracle.

Skills:
Spider Steed (3 CD)
The loyalty of a spider is not acquired easily. Yet some brave skeletons have managed to do it.
Summon a Spider and immediately mount it. The Spider has less health than you, but can move faster and climb walls. Cooldown only ticks down if you aren't riding a Spider.

Flaming Arrow (1 CD)
Utilizing the intense infernal energies of the Nether, Wither Skeletons that have somehow been equipped with bows may fire arrows engulfed in flames.
Deals light Piercing damage and ignites the target.

Wither Rosebud (4 CD)
For every life taken by a Wither, a new black flower blooms.
Perform a basic attack with enhanced damage, which applies the Withering DoT. If an enemy dies to this attack, or while they have the Withering status effect, their death spawns a Wither Rose on the tile they were standing on instead of a downed body. The Wither Rose deals moderate damage to any enemy entity that moves too close to it.

...A world-renowned scientist, well-known for her study of narrativistic metaphysics, strides up to the Seal of Memory. She pulls off her goggles, securing them on her head before giving a playful salute.

RUBY: Howdy!~

Ruby McZupp
+5 ATK
+5 HIT
+10 SPC

Weapon: Depth Charge
A weapon that launches "symbomblisms"- narratvely-empowered grenades. Whatever's caught in the blast retroactively gains deeper narrative meaning. Deals fairly light Bless damage, with Splash1.

Skills:

Event Horizon (6 CD)
The zero dawn approacheth.
Summon a miniscule Plot Hole, which lasts for 2 turns and drags enemies to within Range 1 of it, 1 space moved per turn. If all 8 spots within Range 1 of the Plot Hole are filled, the enemies are consumed. (SPC modifier: debuff remaining enemies if enemies are consumed?)

Peer Review (3 CD)
I don't wanna let you go in the feedbaaack...
Swap two enemies' positions. Deal light Electric damage to both of them and apply UnderReview for 2 turns. UnderReview debuffs skills.

String Theory (4 CD)
A horrible mistake she will make.
Lacerate one foe with strings for medium Slashing damage. Move them up to 2 spaces in one direction. (Spaces moved scales with SPC?)

[if we're expected to give orders, The Pizzasmcpizzas employee spawns in on like, J9, and offers a Sentient Pizza to the seal (because technically, the targeting for offering has no listed range). I think the pizza probability formula is also typo'd- RAW, the chance of a pizza being summoned per use is (10/2+5=10)/(0*2+10=10)%, which is 10/10%, which is 1%; I infer what's actually intended is for, like, 10/10 to mean 100%, 10/12 to mean 83%, 10/14 to mean 71%, etcetera; this being equivalent to the-same-formula-as-is-present-but-with-a-times-100-in-there.]
[Cake Guy spawns in 4 tiles away from the Pizzasmcpizzas Employee and gives Cake Armor to the MOTH PALADIN OF THE BBBA DEITY WHICH SPAWNS IN WITHIN RANGE FOR THAT AND GOES TO K14 AND FLAILS INEFFECTUALLY IN THE GENERAL DIRECTION OF THE SEAL WHICH IT CAN'T ACTUALLY HIT WITH ANYTHING.]


Oh, new Character concept:

Deid Mann
+10 KP in HP
+10 KP in SPC
no other stat investment.

Weapon: Kad Havre (Range 1, Weapon passive: when you miss an attack, spawn a Corpse in range 1 of the target square. If there's already a Corpse in range 1 of the target square, instead destroy the corpse and hit anyway.)

Skill: Nominative Determinism (5CD?) - 'Die', leaving a corpse. You may act from the location of the Corpse, and when it's destroyed, you reappear on a spawn tile. (if 'Dragging' is not already a thing, it applies to your corpse.)
Skill: Witness Testimony (? CD- only one at a time)- Target an enemy within line of sight. If it destroys a corpse or attacks an ally that is also within line of sight, it gains Main Suspect until you 'die'. Main Suspect reduces AVO and DEF, and if possible, MOV.
Skill: Victim Valedictorian (3 CD)- Gain the 'Attractive Victim' buff. taking 10 or more damage with 'Attractive Victim' 'kills' you, leaving a corpse like with Nominative Determinism. (If there's spare Skill Power, this buff also increases the effect of active instances of Main Suspect, or taunts someone with Main Suspect.)

[if orders are expected, Deid Man spawns in... somewhere farish from the others, and uses Witness Testimony on the Seal.]
