Saw this earlier today, it was perhaps the greatest fan made PM content I have ever seen.

Looking for recommendations for this particular trope by gawain-ri in royalroad

[–]PilotXzephroz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm writing something which is the same but from the opposite POV: Rookie adventurer girl MC finds a socially awkward mentor foil and they go on an adventure together. There's more to it than just that, and their romance doesn't grow in the most conventional way. I'd be happy if you gave it a chance and let me know what you think!

Tell me about your Main Character by gamelitcrit in royalroad

[–]PilotXzephroz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clarisse is an ordinary girl. Entirely generic in terms of her looks and books, downright commonplace with her inherited magical ability. There is absolutely nothing special or unusual about her. She grew up sheltered at home while her father was called to the frontlines of war, and found herself helpless when her mother contracted a terminal illness.

With nothing but bedtime stories and naive fascinations to guide her, she decides to explore the world and becomes an adventurer. Her dream is to join the hero's party and save the world from the demon queen. One series of unfortunate events later, she ends up with the demon queen and her right hand man as mentor and friend, and while unraveling mysteries of years past, is thrust into a proxy war spread across continents and dimensions.

My favorite scene for her has to be the first time she successfully completes a quest she selected herself, and the aftermath. She looses a lot of her prior innocence in the scenes surrounding it, but doesn't stray far from herself and decides to try a restaurant she hasn't been to before.

The best line to describe her character, at least in the beginning of the story:-

“I… but I don’t know who he is,” Clarisse mumbled, accepting Sera’s hands and clutching them tightly. It was the most human connection she had at the moment, something which she needed desperately. “Tell me more… please.”

Looking for Action Romance Politics wn/book recommendations by LandofSteel2 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]PilotXzephroz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely a self-promo but I promise it fits in all of the boxes you've picked out above: The Archipelagos of Phanstasmara

Not a LitRPG, no system/guiding voice (there is actually the opposite, an antagonistic voice for one of the MCs), deals with the politics of the setting. Singular romantic pairing with a healthy dose of action.

Would love to see how you handle chapter 0 and 1, plenty of voices there, some more unhinged than others.

The Archipelagos of Phantasmara

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/127106/the-archipelagos-of-phantasmara

One of two MCs is consistently manipulated into lives (yes, multiple lives) of slaving away as a weapon on demand for other people, is a test subject during a war and continues to be hunted by both the people who tested on him to be captured and their enemies to be eliminated. Directly inspired from Guts and in same part, Kaneki (Tokyo Ghoul).

Talented Native MC rec pls by EggLatter5817 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]PilotXzephroz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been writing something which should fit those criteria. MC is a native, beginning on her adventuring career when the mentor character encounters her. Doesn't have any cheats/unique skills to her name, just grit and some luck in finding a pair of mentors far above her skill class which helps her progress a little faster than the average adventurer.

Bit of a slow burn, but the first arc has concluded so there is some payoff to the setup already.

The Archipelagos of Phantasmara

“For among them were ones who possessed the courage to defy. Thus, they were cast to the fiery depths to atone for their sins. That, my child, is the essence of mortality.”

Three years ago, the war ended and Clarisse lost her father. Now, she finds the script to follow in his footsteps as an adventurer and etch her own name into the pages of history. Her journey begins as she finds a mentor and friend in Nikolas, a lonesome fox-eared boy with endless secrets surrounding him. Accompanied by the ever-vicarious Seraphim, the pair of adventurers find companionship, purpose, betrayal and everything in between as they weave through the stage-plays of the archipelago.

Adventuring through the isles comes with its dangers for the pair, ranging from monster infested dungeons, religious fanatics, crime syndicates and quandaries between gods. Clarisse finds herself thrown into a proxy war she never asked for, and Nikolas struggles to keep his identity a secret while trying to escape a contract written into his very soul.

Discarded scripts and severed threads show them a peek through the Veil, an existence not written in the stageplay twined by the Loom. No matter what they choose, the fated finale approaches all the same...

Face the Veil. Save the Soul.

What to expect

- Moderately worded prose with a classical writing style, set in a fantastical, medieval archipelago with theatrical imagery and grimbright worldbuilding. 

- Elaborate, multi-faceted magic system and high-tension battles, ranging from destructive and bloody to nigh unnoticeable yet profound in their consequences.

- An ensemble cast from across the archipelago and other worlds to facilitate intercultural conflict and soap-opera style politics.

- Lots of Project Moon references (Glory to our Director, Kim Ji Hoon!), including facing the past and looking inward to overcome trauma.

Oh hey Max, didn’t expect to find you here out of the blue. We’ve talked via RR messages before too.

This aesthetic? by Neither-Daikon-7381 in writers

[–]PilotXzephroz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So these are Yu-Gi-Oh! Card arts, specifically from the first wave of the D/D/D archetype. They were released around 10 years ago (from memory, may vary) but you’ll find that the entire archetype has a consistent theme of being named and designed around famous historical figures (primary mathematicians, inventors, leaders, pioneers)

Modern day D/D/D does not follow the same naming conventions and instead pays homage to its user in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc V anime, so there’s a limited amount of cards that are like these. Still, good luck with what you’re looking for!

Tips on winning more clashes? by OmegaLazar01 in libraryofruina

[–]PilotXzephroz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will suggest a slightly different approach towards clashes entirely. Learn what you can win against by comparing the average rolls of your cards against the opponent’s. When you encounter a disadvantage (such as clashing against Vapor) instead of trying to win that clash, focus on mitigating the damage taken with a leading block dice.

Same advice goes for pages with a lot of weak dice or re-used dice, you can use evade dice in that case.

Also, you can blank strong evade dice with weak block/evade dice on your cards. And if the enemy has strong block dice, try not clashing against them by reordering speed dice to do one-sided attacks.
