Cellar Door Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Skinny Effect: When targeted by any attack that has a chance of inflicting the status effect ‘Prone’, characters with this skill have a 100% chance of being inflicted with ‘Prone’ for the duration indicated by the attack. Description: There’s a good chance that any skinny person you encounter is going to be swifter and more agile than their bigger counterparts, but it is equally true that when a tough guy hits a scrawny person they fall down. Cost: +1 Genetic Block [bloodline Branch] Effect: Characters with this skill must specify 1 branch from a bloodline that they possess. Characters with this skill may not purchase ranks of the chosen branch of the bloodline. Description: Not all shinobi are perfect creatures, despite the many generations of breeding that have gone into producing superior warriors. Some, even those with powerful genetic mutations have problems using those abilities. In some cases this may be due to a mental inhibition, a subconscious reluctance, or a physical disability. Cost: +1 Edited February 20, 2014 by Cellar Door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rei Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Skinny: include weapon attacks as well, otherwise this will only apply to the odd climate/terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cntrstrk14 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Skinny: Do you get inflicted with Prone for one turn or do you always get hit with the full duration of whatever was targeting you? Genetic Block: This seems okay, if we could price in fractions I would probably put this effect around a +1.5. Not sure how valuable I think people getting additional SP for saving their SP is worth. I want to lean towards +1 instead of +2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Door Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 1. Fixed. 2. I don't know, if it were a single skill that was being blocked, +1 would be fine for me, but almost all bloodline branches have at least 4 ranks per branch. So you're blocking yourself out from the powerful ranks at the get-go as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kouta Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 KC, how would this interact with bloodlines that need one branch to get another? Would you just be SOL for taking it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Door Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Yep. If you need x to take y, but x is blocked then obviously y is out of the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardcore Skittlez Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Now that genetic block is +1, I feel comfortable approving these. Stamp Stamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
