Weigh your characters against other characters in terms of power, intelligence, and experience.
No hax, and you can't do something that defies certain rules. (Like completely negating an attack "just because" declaring a successful action without the opponent's input, etc.)

And how do we decide what fights we can't win? A simple guesstimate of the opponent's power versus your own. For example, don't fight Maurice in a wide open plain when you only have one CC. Just common sense, that's all. |

Eh, Golurk's explanation is better.
Also, would everyone be pissed at me if I made Ethan temporarily immortal for the boss fight against him? (He would be defeated when his HP drops to 1, basically)
It's easily explainable in story(He's wise enough to know when he's defeated), and it would save me the trek to the Revival Point before being able to join up with everyone else. Obviously it would only be a one time thing.
But if you guys think that's unfair, I'll concede. Actually, now that I think about it...
You're making a big deal of permadeath, Golurk, and yet your character is Immortal. He won't ever need the Revival Point.
Remind me again how that's fair?

Single revival point where the cost or revival is an item significant to the character. You have to give something up that would matter to the character in their home RP. This could be a weapon or and item or another person if you wanna be really dramatic.
Since this world runs on stories, it kinda makes sense.

I slick don't like that "guess" there a no fun wasting 20 f****** minutes debating "can I defeat his character, or should I retreat?"
Mood killer.

My character who is immortal is also extremely weak compared to other characters.
He won't lose a fight, but he won't win any either.

Question: why are we all assuming there's gonna be a ton of fighting and death in this?
Maybe fights will be rare, and none of this will ever come up.

But he's still stronger than Elia, and all of the Nova MCs without Pokemon. He's probably stronger than Irving too, and a few others. Not to mention all his abilities and spells. He has infinitely more than everyone else, which can make the argument he's stronger. My Ethan has what, 4 abilities? While your character has dozens, including epic tier abilities. Just how is he weak? And he's immortal. I still don't see how that's fair. |

Oh, the Lich?
He can die. He just doesn't age.
Neal is the only one who can't die at all.

Think about it. For the characters that don't have many items, they can't be revived as much. Ethan would have to give up his weapons, most likely, which is his only way to fight in human form. Unless you want me to punch people to death. And people could just create random stuff and use that, which isn't fair either. |

What about memories?

Neal has no abilities outside of his regenerative one and his Pokemon.

He does have a weapon other than his fists and a Cosmic Drive (he is subject to death when using this though).

Can't we just use in game curency for revivals? That way revival is always a possibility but can still be costly. To make it more costly we could make curency scarce and have other resources important to the story that require purchase. This realy works if the revival point operator is an Anna.

Hmm... Fine. I'll admit I may have been confused. But I still think it's slightly unfair.
Now, back on the Revival Point topic, instead of items or memories, how about sacrificing one CC? Not permanently, obviously, but that CC would be sealed and you would be unable to use it for a set period of time.
Although... That would still favor those with more CCs. Hrm...

This idea might just work. And it doesn't give anyone an unfair advantage. I vote for this. |

I support memories, since the currency idea takes away from the story.

I support memories, since the currency idea takes away from the story. And how would you get those memories back? Would it just be an instance, or a group of memories? I don't think the currency idea takes away from the story at all. And some characters would be more effected than others, so again, it's not fair to everyone. Also, you can't vote on permadeath. Cause you won't ever have to use the Revival Point anyway. |
