What worries me isn't that, Heroist, but the unstable mechanics that change on the fly.
Let me reveal a secret – this mechanic doesn't even exist.

More precisely, it does exist, but only in the GM's head. He partially reveals it to us, and sometimes keeps it a secret. He can refine and change it as much as he wants if he believes the game doesn't match his original vision. If a character isn't supposed to paralyze with every hit, then it won't. Even if the player has achieved 100% paralysis chance.
We trust the GM, right? Shaman, I'm making all these arguments with the understanding that the GM isn't specifically targeting any players by reducing their stats. He's just bringing the game to the state it's supposed to be in. In this case, the rules are secondary (because they are very complex and untested), and the GM's vision is primary.
That's what makes it a live game – players can't exploit loopholes in the rules.

To systematize the mechanics, a system of tags is created, like physical debuff, magical debuff.
Well, then this game would be called "League of Legends" or something like that, not "Expedition from the GM." Physical-magical. :) And what about piercing-slashing-bludgeoning?
Maybe you wanted to suggest something useful, but believe me, from the outside, it looked like "you're all idiots, and I'm smart."
KindShaman
The fact that he can now bite me forever is, to put it mildly, overpowered.
And isn't killing any character with one hit using the "Assassin" skill overpowered?)
I already wrote in the Actaei thread that imbalance is acceptable as long as the game is cooperative. Because it's not as upsetting to all lose together.

Okay, I'm going to sleep, I'll finish writing about your bacchanalia tomorrow.

Could it have been piercing-cutting-bludgeoning?
It's funny that in the game I've been working on for quite some time (slowly), these things are actually happening. More precisely, the effect of critical damage depends on the type of physical damage.

— This is exactly what I'm talking about. You don't let her go from your heart and you pursue her in your dreams. Look at me and Udyolina, weren't you happy with us? You'd be lying if you said yes. And you know what? That was reality. A life that you are rejecting in favor of fantasies that are poisoning your very existence. What are you going to do? WISH to forget Tasariel. LET her go. Forget what she looks like, get rid of anything that reminds you of her, and enjoy life. If you do that, you will be doing HER a favor, and you will free yourself from this miserable life in a world of castles in the air.

-You're probably right. Yes, that's what I should do. Thank you, Lucina. I didn't expect to hear such wise words from you.

Now, regarding the rest. You can call me a prude or even get offended, but I'll still write this. Basically, there are six guys in the thread. They need to role-play an erotic scene. So, what do they do? Two guys play the roles of women, and one plays the role of a man. They describe it in detail. And the others read it afterward. What the heck is this? :confused: I'm starting to understand why Kosha didn't want to play this expansion. Fictional example: A guy writes to me: I grabbed you there, I'm kissing you there. I say: Are you out of your mind? He replies: But imagine that it's not me writing to you, but a cute elf with third-sized eyes. ... I understand that this is a return to the already discussed question of people and their characters. But, in the end, to write a role-play, you need to get into the role, let it pass through you. That's why Heroist's reaction is understandable. Although, maybe I was wrong in my observations.

Bruttius didn't say a word, he just went to the cabin for the elf. He met someone along the way and talked about the vampire.
Gordian met several sailors along the way. They didn't believe him and shook their heads.
- You're taking too long, - said Ravella. - Where should we start?

-Okay, but then remember: I strongly advise you to keep your mouth shut and not talk about what you're about to learn, otherwise the best thing that will happen to you is memory erasure. And I might get killed for that.
And Kaeldrim told him about the order, about the missions he had carried out, about the first meeting with Tasariel, about love, he also mentioned the mission related to the Temple, in short, about everything. He didn't care about what would happen next. Perhaps, it was his weakness of will that allowed him to so easily dispel the illusion of faith in the Order. He was still devoted to his cause and his purpose, but he no longer saw any real attempts in this society to build an ideal world. On the contrary, he clearly realized that the order is only striving for power, and not for the achievement of any good intentions. These eternal mysteries, powerful Sorceresses and warriors, mercilessly destroying those who disagree, this is definitely not what this world deserves. Not what one should strive for.
It's just awful, how did he even get into the order? They don't take people like that. Unless as cannon fodder.

In short, six guys are sitting around. They need to act out an erotic scene. Well, what to do? Two guys started playing women, and one played a man. They described it in detail. And the rest read it later.
I also imagined it and laughed. And I laughed throughout the whole scene.

References to Shabet are still alive. There's no such thing as too many former Ataraxians.

I don't see where you found the problem. There was no Nebo, Heroist, or Revan; there were Udyolina, Kaeldrim, and Lucina. I can't imagine how you can hope to write a believable character if you constantly stumble over such moments.
I don't know about you, but for me, my character is my creation, with its own personality and character, and not just a set of stats or the ability to "immerse" myself in the game world. All (or almost all) of their actions are the result of my reflections on how this living character should act in a given situation.
My own sexual orientation has absolutely nothing to do with this. I don't pay attention to the author specifically; my character interacts with other characters and the game environment, and that's it.
They don't take people like that.
But he was recruited as a child. Perhaps the acquaintance and friendship with Acteon, as well as the nightmares associated with the day they last saw each other, are playing a role.

— Oh? You didn't expect that? — Lucina took her knife in her hand, wherever it had been before. Smiling slyly, she held the blade to Kaeldrim's face. — If you agree with me, how about forgetting about that kiss? — The girl gently ran her finger over the elf's scar. — I'll erase it.

Implying that the story mentioned it.

I don't see any problems either, and I don't identify with the characters. Besides, there are quite a few NPCs. Trying to embody each one seems excessive, and there's no need for it. I'm just recording the actions of the characters I've created, which exist independently. But I still found it funny.
But he was recruited as a child. Perhaps his acquaintance and friendship with Acteon, as well as the nightmares associated with the day they last saw each other, are influencing him.
A defective specimen. The Haven should tighten its training and control.

Gordian met several sailors along the way. They didn't believe him and shook their heads.
What do the sailors have to do with it? Brutius wouldn't even talk to them. The point was about important NPCs and player characters.
- You're taking too long, - said Ravella. - Where should we start?
Gordian sighed and picked up his crossbow.
-- Ravella, can you find your vampire on the ship? And how do you sense them, by the way?

- I felt him move onto the ship. They don't move like we do, but in a similar way.

And I also didn't specify that I wouldn't tell the seagulls sitting on the masts about the vampire :D And you didn't write about their reaction! )

-- Ah, that's what it is, -- Bruttii mused. -- So, you can't pinpoint his location more precisely?

And then, because you withheld information, one of them will fall victim to a vampire. Naughty, naughty!

- No, but the ship isn't that big, we'll find it anyway.

-- Then let's go, -- said Gordian, charging his crossbow with magic. -- We need to be extremely careful, since the vampire has access to the same tricks as you do. We'll check everything from top to bottom.
