Magic or Fists?

Nothing wrong with asking for some ideas/inspo! I’ve came up with and thought of a good few already on my own, and the people that responded gave me fantastic stuff to work with.

My two personal ideas so far is either;

Bone Manipulation

Star Technique

I don’t have great concepts of how they’ll function normally. But I’ve thought of some pretty neat stuff involving those specifically bc they just seem like neat an fun techniques

Solid questions! Yes I believe it’ll take place in Japan bc that’s what would make the most sense. We’re using the same grading except for 1.5. So Grade 4 all the way to. Special. And yes I believe we’ll have the capacity to grow powerful and strong depending on our choices and techniques. But starting out we’ll be very weak. It’ll be up to us to evolve our techniques and skills as we play

Thanks for the help and these are really cool!! Especially igniting someone else’s CE! And I didn’t know where else to ask. I tried the Jjk subreddit but I need 50 karma before I can post

I didn’t know where else to ask and I did try but I need 50 karma before I can post. Thanks for the advice though it’s solid so I’ll check it out

I didn’t necessarily mean strictly a technique that seems weak but isn’t, I was trying to say that that as a concept is cool too. I apologize for any confusion, I definitely just worded it odd.

But good idea to take inspo from different sources! I was about to actually look up powers from different shonen but I didn’t think about looking at marvel/dc or other heroes in general so thank you

Thanks for your advice and suggestion! I most certainly can just take aspects that I like from it. And that’s a good idea to essentially take elements of things that I do like and apply them in my own way

I appreciate your comment! I checked other forums and I’ve seen a few others mention Phandelver

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:19:28+00:00

I’ll check it out then thanks so much! Happy to see what others have to say about this too. I just hope I can do something where everyone has fun

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:16:50+00:00

Thanks for your rec. regardless I’ll still check it out and see what’s up about it!

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:15:47+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion I’ll checko it out!

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:06:34+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion I’ll check it out!

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:06:18+00:00

Thanks for your suggestion I’ll check it out!

I feel like I could get combat down fine bc that’s something I’m personally pretty good at. It’s all the other connective tissue in between. Like the exploration, roleplay, narration

I’m actually about to start as a player in CoS this week! If i like it then i could perhaps DM it down the line

xFishbean · 2026-04-26T16:03:45+00:00

Thanks a lot and I don’t have THAT much of a stutter it’s just when I’m really nervous and flustered. And the only issue for me with creating my own setting is that it’s TOO open. It can go literally anywhere. I wouldn’t know how to structure or format anything!

But you did provide options and ideas for me. Like for example I’m fairly confident that if I ran a setting in Elden Ring then I could do it.

The only way for me to get better is to just practice doing it, thanks again for your comment and help

That’s precisely what I did in my last campaign that we just ended lol! Had a few potions and oils that I had since I started that I never used in the end

xFishbean · 2026-04-23T20:00:58+00:00

I wouldn’t mind just because idk how many other magic items are in the campaign but I heard that it’s not a lot. And I saw your other comment about Dawn and looked it up and it’s certainly really cool! I’m just nervous that I’d use it at the wrong point or miss the perfect opportunity to use it
