Myths and Monsters

how is eris good at all?

and how the heck is demeter like, useful at all? it's literlaly, just learn arbitrary info each day.

[lapis grove]

I was going for a savant like character who gets only one piece of info so it's harder to tell if it's true or not

[shell estuary]

instead of making it arbitrary then id say have their be some sort of condition. like if X it's true if y it's false.

[lapis grove]

"Each night* choose a player; they die. Minions decide who hold the "Golden Apple" that player becomes the demon if Eris dies."

Is that better

[shell estuary]

no no im asking, what was the intention for eris?

like, what are you tryin gto do with the character?

[lapis grove]

I know it sounds convoluted but I'm trying to make it work with the lore

[lapis grove]

I just thought it'd be a cool idea but I noticed a couple of flaws after reading the message

[chilly flame]

In the land of myths and monsters... I was an angel

Also Lotus Eater should state "until dusk"

If something is until dusk, it should be listed, as otherwise it's permanent

[shell estuary]

I think that pokes as something important/imo a script shouldnt be designed character by character or, just because it's neat. but should be designed comprehensively. with the interactions between characters and the roles the character types and character fill being something you actively think about

[dreamy heart]

it could be reworded to, "if a good player is chosen they choose 2 players, if not the demon they die"

or something

so it is actually good

cause rn the mechanically good choice is to choose themselves

to then chosoe a player to die

medusa is immedietly outed

which is not good

and makes solving stuff way easier

same with cerberus

which is quite outed when it triggers

only 1 other thing being able to do the same

hades dionysus suffers from the same

cause hades here feels quite weak

maybe make apate more trackable, either every other night all neighbours of an evil player recieve false info

or make it all nights

that happens

artemis is really weak

they are like a huntsman

but way weaker

and pandora is not even close to dangerous enough to require a huntsman like

and can just be exeucted d1 if needed

there is very little roles the evil really need to know

alethia feels very bad if it doesnt learn a demon bluff

and if it does learn one it's brutal for evil

if they bluff the learned character

dionysus feels really strong or really weak depending on interpretation

if it chosen player learns they have been chosen by dionysus its really strong

and makes hades way weaker

if its not, then its super weak, since madness might be broken immedietly accidentally

eros and athena feel super strong compared to the previously stated roles

like artemiss which is like almost detrimental

zeus could we worded to that player cannot malfunction or become mad, which would make it immune to apate, though it feels really weak, since there is not that much things that make them poisoned, and half doesnt even trigger on them

[dreamy heart]

helios is incredibly strong, to the point were it should almost always be shown themselves making it bad, most storytellers will work around not showing the same player to much, this just confirms good players a lot and very strongly

could at least be made into the player the storyteller thinks is the most valuable to one team

or something

and not good player

so it can learn others as well

demeter needs to be more trackable, possibly saying, at the start of the game a player is marked by you, each day learn a true statement, if the marked player dies it is false instead

or something

so it flips after a bit

previous demeter is really really weak

cause for the storyteller to actually tell stuff is really hard, they would basically have to offer solves

that the player could think about to see if it sounds real

cause it doesnt learn anything

savant is useful cause you know exactly 1 statement is true

and is trus trackable

this needs to be telling you very specific stuff that you can think about if it could be true

hermes is quite strong in confirming people

but not to bad

better than useless

[dreamy heart]

apollo is like balloonist

but not the drawback

that balloonist has

which makes it incredibly strong and dangerous

probably strongest role here

cause it just says the demon is one of 4 players

poseidon just confirms itself

and has an otherwise really negligble ability

since very few abilities interact with seating

cyclops is a tf

can just out being the cyclops

if the st executes them they are confirmed

as achilles is worded you choose more people each night, so the choices stick around which i think is a positve tbf

hera is interesting

moirai is outed quite easily

cronus is quite loud as well

which is probably the biggest problem i have here

most stuff is really loud

and doesnt change the game up to much with being loud

so tracking demon type and stuff will be quite easy
