Cyborgs and Ghosts |
Otherworld is a mercurial domain; and some among the recently deceased leverage ways to extend their own morality outside of what the natural cycle intended. Be it through technology or the occult, these wayward souls shirk the judgement the Ogre King would place upon them to continue their duties in the mortal realms.
Sometimes searching for a bypass after months dead isn't quite fast enough; in such circumstances, you can now turn to two paths toward bypassing this timer entirely! BEFORE posting a judgement for Yemma to view, characters may opt to sacrifice 20% of their cumulative XP in order to MECHANIZE or GHOST. This cost takes from RAW XP first and PL second. You are unable to create or join threads until the ACTION THREAD you died in has ended
Any unlocked transformation tiers will remain unlocked - I.E. a Super Saiyan with 100,000 PL deciding to become a Ghost will have 80,000 PL, but still retain the 100k threshold prior to this process and will be eligible to retain Oni's x17 transformation.
Additionally, your character will be unable to instigate ATs for ONE MONTH AFTER being able to post, but may still join them so long as they aren't on the side of the aggressors. They will receive a temporary, special wound. This wound's HP reduction lasts for TWO MONTHS and fully fades after FOUR MONTHS.
Opting to MECHANIZE will permanently* switch your species tag to CYBORG and replace your traits with Android traits. You may freely pick new general traits to fit this new build.
Opting to GHOST will permanently* switch your species tag to GHOST and replcae your traits with Oni traits. You may freely pick new general traits to fit this new build.
Techniques shifted due to no longer having certain traits such as Martial Artist and Strategist will be fully refunded slots, and you may app them again as desired.
Characters who are already CYBORGs or GHOSTs may opt to simply pay the fee to revive again; however, the same character can NOT revive this way twice within a period of EIGHT MONTHS. CYBORGs can never become GHOSTs, and GHOSTs can never become CYBORGs.
