New around here.

          Remember how I was thinking about a Mario cyoa well I might be able to do it soon. I even have a title planned called "Mario and the goddess of gold".

        Yes it involves Anna and robin (basically he's the guide of the group and he appears to be a robin) think of there involvement being like the one in Super Paper Mario .  Anna and Robin (aka Male made unit) fall in love but the Annas can't have that. So one day Robin is lead somewhere by one of the Annas is seriously wonder and is left for dead. Anna the goddess of gold goes crazy thinking he left her. Basically like how count Bleck and that butterfly pixy were but the roles reversed. During the time between chapters I will excerpts from Anna's diary.

      Bowser is the main villain but that doesn't mean he is the one responsible for everything. There is a "puppet master" behind it all. The kooplings and Bowser Jr are involved and you will have to battle most of them. Whether if its a boss battle, mid-boss or something along those lines.

    The main characters that the readers use are: Mario, Luigi, Wario, Yoshi, Peach, Daisy, and Rosaline. They will meet up fairly early in the cyoa but that's all you get no temp characters. All characters have a melee weapon associated to them and one elemental "magic" attack. You don't have to buy equipment there weapons increase over time by using AP and so does there magic in the same way. When I do get started I will list the characters w/ a brief description of them, their weapons, and element they are associated with in The Mushroom House.

       There will be giant battles in this cyoa. The players will have brobot as there giant counterpart and Brobt doesn't have exp himself but all the characters will get exp and ap. Brobot has own HP associated with him.

   Also support conversations so if you want Mario and Daisy S rank then go for it. If you want Wario and Rosaline to S rank then go right for it. These conversations will happen before the end of the chapter and after the last boss of the chapter. The characters can only have one S rank but A rank w/ everyone. Yoshi (here he will be known as "The Great Gonzalez jr") can only get to A rank with any of the characters.

Also there will be a discussion topic in the social board called "The Mushroom House"

        The battle system  will be similar to the one in paper Mario except up to 3 or 4 can participate and everyone gets star points not just Mario. Obviously, I am not writing a scene for every Gomba we come across because then the story would never advance. The battle scenes and decisions would come when the characters come across an important battle.

The question I have is how can I write battle scene for a turn based w/o dragging it out and grinding those battles to a halt? If anyone can help me with that it would be extremely helpful.
