@mattmanganonIf you recall I mentioned in IntChk i'd be submitting Frontier type character. Yuki has partner digimon, but they are sealed inside totems as spirits and they communicate telepathically.

I want to play this as multiple personalities (Yuki and her two main spirits) kinda fighting for control of their shared form, with all of them having different ideologies and opinions on how to do things.

There's also the added bonus that Yuki will have to first Get Agunimon's and Megadramon's spirit totems, which should make for a fun character arc.

Hence I don't really have a place for armor digivolutions, unless we go with the 'kids can use the armor digivolution on themselves', then I'd replace Cutemon with Yuki's armored form.

If not, perhaps Yuki could chose to bestow that digivolution on other people, sort of lend the power to the other kids at the expense of not being able to fight herself? Would make for a good tactical option for the squad.

@RickyG85 Yes, gonna need some more about Rick's past.

@Forsythe Hmmm, the main problem is, as i said, there is going to be a heavy emphasis on the kids relationship with their Digimon and the Digi Eggs will play a role in that relationship and i'm not really seeing how that relationship can develop alongside their connection to the Egg.

Pretty much: "It's not a No, but you're gonna have to sell me on it"

Is that a kid's or kids' relationship? If you mean the relationship betwee Yuki and her digimon, that is pretty much unaffected - The digimon sealed in the totem still have full personality which rides shotgun in Yuki's brain all the time. They just don't have their own physical body.

If you inted for the focus to be the relationship between the entire group of kids and the group of digimon, then yeah, the only way for others to talk to Yuki's spirits would be for Yuki to play the middle man, or alternatively maybe she could temporarily give control to the spirit, in a sort of Tok'Ra way.

As far as the digi egg goes, I'm not quite certain how you intend to use it, so i can't make many suggestions. If it is in some sort of a power limiter function (e.g. until your relationship reaches certain level of maturity, you can't digivolve to ultimate etc.), it could influence which level of spirits Yuki can bond with.

@Forsythe Pretty much, the Egg is going to be something of a item that drives the plot and helps you and your partner achieve higher forms. If you want to say that, for some reason, the Egg serves the function of the Totem, then i'm ok with that. It's just that introducing the Totems into this would just be... Narratively superfluous. It's another item by another name that seemingly has no origin or revelance to the plot, but it's there to provide the exact same narrative purpose that the Eggs do.

@mattmanganon That actually works, just replacing "totem" with "egg" (Heck, canonically some even look similar).

I'll edit the sheet when I get off work, tho I have a long day today

Removed all totem and spirit references while keeping the mechanics mostly the same.

@Forsythe Apart from the weird "Post Cooldowns" things with the ability, my only other problem is the "Absorbing fallen Digimons data" thing is when Digimon get destroyed, their data returns to the Digital World and get reconstituted. It creates a number of ethical problems if we go around vampirizing them. If you want to say you take samples of their data, that could work.

Right, I'll try to get a IC posted tomorrow. Everyone who has been accepted remember to move your character sheets to the Character tab.

@mattmanganonSorry, I don't think this is going to work for me. The whole character is based on being morally ambiguous, so if you're concerned about ethics, we'd only have problems down the line.

@mattmanganonis my character ok, now? Also, should I change his appearance? Because Rick and Aoi at present look really similar

@Forsythe Moral Ambiguity is fine. No problem with that. But one of the key factors at play in this will be the fact that y'all will be working for an organization dedicated to the removal of Digimon from the organic world and their return to the Digital World. An organization that took over from the previous "Kill 'em all and let Yggdrasil sort 'em out!" organization. I think a story about how your character wants to keep more of them than the sliver that she gets could be an interesting story to explore. a "Maybe the last guys had it right and you're just pussyfooting around!" kinda deal. Story's are about the evolution of the character. Starting in a place where they have shit to overcome is the name of the game. Such as the character i have, her story is going to be one of learning to become human again. Characters with no where to expand to are boring.

But if you still don't see a future in this, i understand and am sorry i couldn't be more accomodating.

@RickyG85 You are accepted, yes. And to answer your other question, Japan is a country that likes uniformity in looks. So, it kinda fits.

@Crimson Flame Good Question. As it says in the first post, some electronic device near your character is gonna fuck up and spit out your Digimon Partner, along with their egg. You may choose if an adversarial Digimon also follows the egg from the Digital World through. It's as soon as you have really felt strong emotion towards your partner is when your egg will spit out your Digivice. I'm going with the D-3 designs for this.
