Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) ~Skill Sheet~ Skill Name: Creditor's Advantage Bloodline: n/a Description: The capitalist economies of the world thrive on one simple and fundamental rule. Everything costs something. Of course, there are some that have found ways to live outside this rule. These charismatic individuals are gifted with the skill, either inherent or trained, to haggle with even the thriftiest of merchants. This skill can be a great boon to a shinobi light on cash, but debts have a way of catching up to even the most elusive welcher. Effect: Items that costs more than what you can afford is now buyable if the residual amount is not more than $1000. The residual amount is taken out from mission rewards at an interest rate of 20%. A note of the debt has to be kept at the transaction log in the character sheet. Example: If Ninja A has 500$ and wants to buy a sword for $750. He is able to do so. The acquisition of the item will render Ninja A to be in a debt of $250+ 20% interest which would sum up to a total of $300. The $300 will be taken directly from any monetary rewards that is acquired by the Ninja A until the debt is fully paid. Cost: -3 Edit: Cost edited. Edited October 28, 2009 by cntrstrk14
Cellar Door Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 The description is generally written as if it did not pertain to a game. ie; Description; "With What? Your good looks?" The capitalist economies of the world thrive on one simple and fundamental rule. Everything costs something. Of course, there are some that have found ways to live outside this rule. These charismatic individuals are gifted with the skill, either inherent or trained, to haggle with even the thriftiest of merchants. This skill can be a great boon to a shinobi light on cash, but debts have a way of catching up to even the most elusive welcher. As for a cost... I'd say it'd be more expensive. -4 Maybe.
Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Oh okay..Can I just use yours since you made it so well already? >.<
Warr Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Probably so, and you may want to look over Dead Broke.
Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Still pending for approval to use Cellar Door's descriptions. Where can i find this 'Dead Broke'? I cant seem to find it in the approved skills section.
Cellar Door Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Yeah man, I wouldn't have put it up there if you couldn't use it. <3 And just run the curser over 'Dead Broke' in Warr's post. It's a link.
Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Oh...should probably make it so that links are written in different colors. Anyways thanks for the description. All I need now is approvals~
Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Thanks much~ Need approvals!! Seriously need the skill for my new character. If not he'd be puppetless!
Rilon Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 The skill looks good. One thing though, there's a 72 hour bump rule on this forum. Meaning, that it's against the rules to intentionally bump a topic to the top of a forum more than once every 72 hours. If you post in the admin's approval threads (Link) or IM them you can get your topics looked at more quickly than just posting in the creation thread for approvals, and you won't be breaking any rules ;D Oh also, if you want to change your forum skin so that you can see the links more clearly, use the dropbox in the lower left hand corner of the page.
cntrstrk14 Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 You could probably actually bump this down to -3 SP on second thought.
Kuja Posted October 27, 2009 Author Posted October 27, 2009 Could or should? Hmm, any other mod/admin thinks so?
Exodus Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) I definitely do. -3 would be fair, I was even tempted to suggest -2. But whatever. -3 will fly with me. Edited October 27, 2009 by Exodus
Anonymous Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 A reduction in cost is always good. It will give your character more options as time goes on. And cntr's word is pretty much law 'round these parts.
Warr Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 I'd be okay with it being -3. And links show up highlighted via being underlined, even if nothing else.
Cellar Door Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 If they don't mind -3, then it's okay with me as well.
cntrstrk14 Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 Er, yeah, quick points; 1. Links highlight differently or not at all based on the skin you use. Some highlight, some underline, some have very faint changes in colors. Mine for instance (cgreen) changes the font color to green. But its hard to see sometimes. It does not underline. I could go in and change what I assume is CSS for the stylesheets on each to make sure they all at least underline, which would be likely the most logical. I may look into that now, I am kinda bored. 2. I approve at -3 EDIT: And done, all of the skins should now either have links as a different color or underlined. If anyone has any suggestions for a change to any of the links on a certain skin PM me and let me know.
