Reads post. Jesus, Nonsuch is going to be the cause of at least a dozen Dark Magical Girl origin stories if she keeps this up.

And I'll see about posting Sunday. It'll give me something to do while I have pound cake cooking in the oven. I love me office potlucks being an excuse to bake more~

The Detention Club should thank her for helping with recruitment.

Also ye, one of my initial ideas was a Light Girl cult leader, so things could definitely have gone even crazier huhuhu

Sees N.Corp Don Quixote. I would kinda have liked to have seen it even if she'd be trying to nail Roche and not in the horny way the other Dark Magical Girls would be.

Honestly I might lean in the direction of Shatterscape and Evil Eye being too good together. Depending on how much focus there is on PvP with the light girls, it might be kinda toxic. Like if Evil Eye just knows where you are and spawn kills you with Shatterscape because she has bodies stashed near all the major landmarks of Hibusa town, that's not fun to deal with. I'm open to input on it though.

Kiyo definitely has potential chemistry with Earthshaker. They've both seen how apathetic the world is. Evil Eye has seen more, but Earthshaker was more directly affected by it. I think it could be a neat dynamic.

@Emeth I think @Lonewolf685 and @Ponn are teamed up, if previous OOC posts are anything to go by. In which case Earthshaker isn't up for grabs anymore.

@Emeth

Could pair with @KoL's Mercurial.

Might be cool to have a list of the teams somewhere. Maybe on the character tab for easy reference?

When people finalize the teams they'll be on the Character Tab. But so far, no one's made any final decisions it seeems.

If nobody has objections with Evil Eye and Shatterscape being a duo, I'm fine with it. Basically I'm cool with anything, so unless somebody else has strong feelings about teaming up with Evil Eye, Shatterscape gets her by default.

I'll post sometime next week, ideally sooner rather than later.

First attempt at a semi-fancy character banner. Hopefully it's not an eyesore.

I didn't name Kiyo's partner, so whoever wants to team up with Evil Eye can jump right in there.

@Lonewolf685 I think you forgot some of your tags, sport.

@The World Would you be ok with Kriegspiel and Acid Drop teaming up? For all their differences, they're both manipulative, so they'd make a great evil duo.

If not, I can see Kriegspiel teaming up with anyone besides Oros (given her past, she'd be uncomfortable around possessive people who didn't respect her boundaries).

I'll have to get a banner another time. And I fixed the tags.

Oh yea, I thought it would be fun to make a tier list, because I love making those. I thought it would be fun to do one based on Oros the Joyful, specifically who would make the best partner for her. I primarily considered player synergy, personality synergy, and fighting synergy. Or in other words:

-How well I know the player.
-Chemistry between the character's personalities. (VERY subject to review, as not many people have posted yet)
-Ability to play off each other's talents in a fight.

Acid Drop
I've liked Dark wolf, but we never get to RP together as players. I usually end up GMing for them or we sparsely interact. I also like the idea of pairing Oros with someone who is immune to being seduced, as Acid Drop can't be made to feel the lust anyone else would. In addition to that, she could hit on others without upsetting her team mate, who likely wouldn't be romantically interested anyway. Also the emotion feedback loop potential is totally bonkers, as Oros can get quite hyper.

Nyxia Torrentia, Neon Tempest of the Ultraviolet Rainbow
Ponn is someone else I don't get to play with a ton player to player. Her snarky personality is a perfect balance to Oros's overly friendly nature, and I could see her trying to crush Oros's spirit at every opportunity, or play hard to get. Also would have stupid high DPS as they both fill the "I make stuff die" role at different ranges.

Kriegspiel
My GM from another RP. I think the player fascinates me more than the character combo. It's not horrible, it's just not as spectacular as some of the other ones. But I could see Oros's need for acceptance making her easy for Kriegspiel to manipulate, even if she'd have to stay on her toes to keep Oros in check. There's also some interesting synergy with the pawns where they could explode, causing Oros to bleed and become stronger.

Evil Eye
Emeth seem like a fun sort. Never played with them though, so a little skeptical. We do have good fun in the discord in the other RP. Evil Eye has no real way of harming people on her own but seems pretty OP against other magical girls. This would be the purified magical girl busting team if it ever happened. Otherwise, Oros's small area of influence means she doesn't get much benefit from Evil Eye's sight.

Shatterscape
I played with Villamvihar in the past, but only briefly. I don't know what to make of their personality, so can't comment on that either. I do like the idea of Oros charging towards her next waifu (the enemy) with fake waifus flanking her on either side. But I don't think they have a way of really benefiting each other, as Shatterscape gains nothing out of Oros's presence, and may be a liability to her clones if they get too close.

Earthshaker
I didn't get much interaction with Lone wolf in the last RP we did together, but I got the feeling that our needs are a little different. There might be some personality chemistry there with Oros being cute and Earthshaker being stone faced, but it's not as interesting as most of the others. And in fights? They're two melee characters that have no way of benefiting each other.

Mercurial
I don't think this team-up is bottom tier garbage, but the three paragraph character sheet doesn't tell me much about who they are or how they'd interact with Oros. I'd need to see a bit more of them before I could get excited about pairing up.

Kriegspiel
My GM from another RP. I think the player fascinates me more than the character combo. It's not horrible, it's just not as spectacular as some of the other ones. But I could see Oros's need for acceptance making her easy for Kriegspiel to manipulate, even if she'd have to stay on her toes to keep Oros in check. There's also some interesting synergy with the pawns where they could explode, causing Oros to bleed and become stronger.

Actually when you put it like that, I can see it working, as long as Kriegspiel feels she's the one in control. She'd make it clear she wouldn't stand for boundary overstepping, so Oros might tone it down around her just to be accepted. Who knows, they might even have romantic chemistry of the domme/sub type.

@BrokenPromise@LuckyBlackCat, I'd be ok with either of you to say the truth. On the issue of my CS being short, it's most because I was trying to one-up a certain disciple of mine. I'll explain Mercurial better in game with time.

On the other hand, I think that, if no one can settle on a final decision, and are ok with it, @TheWendil, @CamiCat and I may pick the teams with a dice roll or something like this. Just to get this business sorted and have the girls begin building up their team work.

I'd support just RNGing the pairings for now. It's not like the pairs are set in stone based off of this singular event, after all.

Oh, forgot to mention with Evil Eye/Oros they could compete for waifus, both being the seducer type.

She'd have to repeat herself a few times I'm sure. but I wouldn't be opposed to it. Though Oros is a switch that defaults to sub, final warning.

That doesn't help me though. I mean, we have written together in the past and you seem pretty chill. I don't think you wouldn't be viable as a partner or anything. Though all the same, I feel like Oros would know more about Mercurial if they are in the detention squad together. But I won't push the issue.

It's not like we're that far away from getting all the teams sorted, are we?

Schrade & Will of the Wisps are matched up.

Earthshaker and Nyxia Torrentia, Neon Tempest of the Ultraviolet Rainbow verbally showed interest OCly, with Ponn saying they wanted their team up to happen ICly

Emeth said who they wanted for Evil Eye, and while Villamvihar also picked Lucky Black cat, Said black cat looks like their top pick is Acid drop, so it makes sense to let Evil Eye have Shatterscape, as that's their top pick. It might not be finalized, but it looks close.

That leaves Mercurial, Kriegspiel, Acid Drop, and Oros the Joyful. And that's going to get made up as soon as Dark Wolf decides which of us they want to play with. Once that happens, boom, you'll have your teams.

You do what you want, but I don't think I'd randomize it at this stage.

EDIT: Just saw Erode's post. And I mean, yea, that's fair too.

I like that BP is so used to my other account that he's just deadnaming this one lol.
But I'm down with however things turn out, partner wise, especially since they're not currently permanent.
Sorry for the delay with my post, I have a plague of flies in my house that took up the past 24~ hours and I'm still not convinced that they're all gone.

Shatterscape shall terrorise team up with Evil Eye then. I will be posting soon.
