《The Mimic》Update: Changing the system
Advertisement
to prevent spolers I won't show you his full stats but I will tell you that his health has been significanly reduced. to comensate attack for all creatures has also been reduced. After finding ways to make everything balanced, it took a freaking long time, I finaly found a neat way. ranks and levels now actually signify something, I'll tell you more about that in the story itself but in essence I've made it so that on average it takes 10 hits to defeat someone 5 if the person doesn't defend him/herself.
in the system I had before it was only balanced in the lower levels but after a while it would have taken hundred of hits to defeat another person of the same level.
Here are the some changes to skills, the stuff crossed out is the same as it was before.
Transfer Other world: Level 1: There are people in this world that were once not from here, those are the summoned and the reincarnated, both often have special other worldly skills unlike any other.
Transfer is an other world skill that allows the user to transfer all damage from one person onto themselves. The only known skill with similar attributes is the Empathy skill
1: the user can transfer all damage from another if a certain threshold of empathy is met, familiars are automatically protected. Wounds that can kill the user will not be healed no matter the level of empathy. sp/mp cost: none
level up preequiste:
use transfer 3 times: 2 of 3
exp+ is now exp++ and is essentially the same except that instead of saying increases exp, its say it reduced level up requirment by 12.5 percent at level. Skills:
the hardest thing to balance were battle skills. THose were freaking annyoting to balance, that and spells but I digress. all battle skill have changed luckily Mun only has one battle skill, that being Skewer.

here is the new version of skewer and in turn the new skill concept.
Skewer Na(natural) Level 1 Rank: ordinary Skewer is a skill that sends the users tendril(s) to attack a target. A powerful skill when used on unsuspecting people but very useful in ordinary combat too. 1: 1-4 mighty tendrils are sent out and seek out their target 2: intial damge: 2-8 3: the user can gaurentee damage. 4: Chancec to inflict 10%-40% bonus damgage intial sp cost: 1 gaurentee damage cost: 1Sp/damage level
this is how skill and spell work now, with this system under normal circumstances a person can only attack another person of the same level, 5 times with a skill if they want the damage to be about a fifth of enemies health. oohhh was that frustrating to calculate, to make sure that it worked. I had to think up a bunch of systems before
I came to this conclusion.
now let me explain what a damage level is.
All attack are based on levels. what I did was create a base attack and after that you just muliply it by the level, I did this for all stats really. pretty much everyone has a base damage of 2 per level so
1mp/sp= 2 damage. though that changes of the person is stronger, for instance a devils average base attack is 2.4 per level.
Gaurentee dammage is basically that. if the attack hits, that damage will apply unless it is blocked, I won't explain blocking here.
oh and one last thing. level 1 is actualy worth 5 levels.
I'll explain more about how skills work in story so lets move on.
Here are minor spolier, but it also shows clearly how much Muns stats have changed.
Spoiler: Spoiler Level: 16 Rank: Devil Species: Mimic Soul: Lion heart Ability points: 35 Mp: 192: Hp:270 sp:138 Strength: 10+(5)
Agility:10+(5)
Intelligence :15+(5) wisdom:18+(7) Charisma: 1+(4) Vitality:10+(5)
I think thats all of it, I might have missed some stuff.
if you have any questions I'll answer them.

Knights of the Partition
We like to think there are no monsters. No magic, no gods, nothing waiting in the night but the stars and cold, hard science. It’s a comforting thought. It isn't true. Magic isn't common, mind you. Working forces is difficult in the Age of Man, and gods are limited in the ways they interact with the world. The great monsters of old have mostly been slain, or sealed away. But rare or not, the magic isn't gone. The great Working that protects us from the horrors of the past does not have the power to destroy such things. Instead, it created the Partition, a tapestry of worlds beyond the boundary of our own. There the magic roams, searching for a way to come back. I am a Knight of Avalon. One of the protectors of the Partition. How did I get this job? Poor decisions, mostly.

[Archive] Legend of the Nameless Hero
A WhiteSamurai original Web Novel There are always the mysterious tales of heroes, those who fight against the Demons, who fight for justice and those who head mighty quests against tyranny. Heroes that are born to destiny, Heroes that are forged through tragedy, and Heroes that are brought to the world in times of great peril and strife. Not all true Heroes are wanted or beloved, but all life understands, that throughout all time and space, for those who truly stand as Heroes, they never need to be called one. The sands of time are the only true judge for those who journey upon the true path, the only one they will ever need. This is the tale, no, the Legend, the Legend of the one who throughout all time, would forever be, the First Hero. This is Their story, a story of true hardship, of a sorrow greater than any other that would stand as a symbol of inspiration no matter the test of time. A tale of darkness, a true curse, an impending evil hidden beyond the horizons that threatened the very future of existence. This is the tale, of one of the few great figures, who, in the face of true evil, continued to stand. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :Disclaimer: _______________________________________________________________ . . . All Chapters are subject to sudden revision, scrapping, or complete removal from the canonical storyline. The author of "Legend of the Nameless Hero" uses RoyalRoad as a method of experimentation with genre's and writing styles for Fantasy-style works for the sake of eventual publication. The end result isn't to release perfect chapters on RoyalRoadl, but eventually develop the story as intended using the best material to produce the highest quality work. The best mentality when reading works from WhiteSamurai is to see it as the ability to read and review pre-release transcripts or "Rough Copies" before publication. Viewer discretion and maturity are both requested and required. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :About: _______________________________________________________________ . . . This story follows direct character point of views along with an intentional third person narrative to explain to the readers what the characters won't. (I don't use my characters to go give extensive explanations for every last thing like EVERYTHING DOES) This tale shall encompass the life of the Hero from the moment she is summoned into the Kingdom of Kremor, to the Legendary Final Clash. This isn't your run of the mill hack and slash raise an army and conquer, I don't follow that bandwagon. Real life holds politics, intrigue, economics, structure, populations, civil opinions, history, psychology, heart, suffering, wonder, advancement, curiosity, ambition, and so many more things that would lead to me hitting some character limit. I refuse to take the same route that others use by simply ignoring these factors, my worlds, my stories, are as real as they get. There's no plot armor here, if someone screws up, they've screwed up and there's no magical sword in a well for them. I write in 'Seasons' not 'Books' as many often do, these are generally, not always, hundreds of chapters long, though as I have yet to finish a season, the average length is in the air. I go by an ideal of what I call 'Universal Lore' which includes the policy that things that exist within the story don't follow the rule where the Protagonist needs to be there so that it will happen. There will be some things that will happen, and the hero, and sometimes the reader, won't know happened until they enter a place, or news gets to them. A person needs to be in the right place at the right time, I hate plot holes and meta characters above all else... For my works, comments are practically demanded as reactions, thoughts, and various viewpoints are like sweet fuel to my writing spirit. Reviews are highly accepted and appreciated, BUT ONLY IF THEY ARE EDUCATED AND THOROUGHLY EXPLAINED. Those that throw down a low rating ARE HIGHLY REQUESTED to extensively detail and explain their viewpoints on the work. They should also be willing to come back to the work at a later date if messaged by the Author, Me, due to issues they mentioned being taken care of. I'm never against scrapping a chapter or rewriting several paragraphs if there are character or story discrepancies. I want the highest quality work possible, and every comment, every review, are tools for me to use to further that goal. . . . Enjoy the work. ~White Status: (Ongoing)
