Ayo post time since a month of the artfight beginning yes yes But first New reference sheets I made for it heehoo

what are ORBS and licenses. my friend group is interested in MSpain and do not have a idea of what they are

Ah! You awaken me from my slumber! Here's some info from a good ol' pal because I must rest:

"Howdy! You're new to MSpain aren'tcha? Well don't worry, I'll answer your inquiries quickly!"

"Ah, ORBs and licenses huh? Well I'll tell ya what buddy, what you're asking about are some secondary "mechanics" tied to lore that simply emerged from the nature of the game, much like many others. Inserting them into your own game might be a bit of a leap, but applying those concepts might serve some purpose!"

"Let's start with ORBs. Pretty big buggers that had been created through one way or another, with the first one simply being printed out."

"They served as hard time limits and ""skill"" checks with a roll to escape, appearing usually near the end of encounters/adventures, as a final unbeatable threat that you simply had to run away from while slowly covering up more of the canvas. You could risk doing more actions, or get consumed by the ORB! The first ORB was also particularly threatening, appearing in a time of many recruits being around, as a way to get rid of them completely from available play until the ORB itself was destroyed. Also deployed when the DM needed to end quickly, but don't say you heard that from me."

"In lore, the ORB was described as a nothing that slowly grew itself until it could consume the whole world! Now that didn't happen, but it sure did wreck havock upon the landscape. The inside of it quickly deteriorated non-organic matter, leaving non-mechanical recruits fine enough to rescue before certain void beings within got to them first."

"Y'know, you think they'd learn about creating their own world ending threats by the 10th time..."

"Licenses! They're something everybody and everything has for each of their attributes, no matter how basic or extrapolated! Rock license? Solid state license? French license? That's all there, and you can "take" it from that someone for yourself, while removing all those traits from the previous owner!"

"Think of a puddle with a wet license. What happens if you take that from the puddle? Well, you most likely become liquid, and the puddle turns completely dry! Whatever is funnier in the moment! Do note, that even with licenses themselves being a rare occurance, they could easily derail any encounter with a petty squabble over them. Very much keep in check with how the players are using them if implemented."

"Oh, whoops! Looks like I'm talking a little bit over what I'm allowed to say! Well, hopefully that helped ya! And who knows, maybe you'll see me in your game? Up to you if you draw me and act out my very whims! Hee hee hee..."

Well uh, yea basically that hopefully that cleared things up? Very interested in someone else taking note of the silly game of MSpain and I very much just recommend you people experiment and see what the players come up with as you play! Very much part of the fun is to build your elaborate web of lore and esoteric mechanics.

Hwuh?

Huh??

New cranes :>
