z-Carver Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 I would like to propose the following enhancement for use on the N!Prime boards:Stage Presencea Mega-Charisma EnhancementA Nova with this ability possesses more than the normal amount of stage presence. She knows when to smile at the crowd, when to spin, when to cry and even when to end the show. System: Whenever the character is performing before an audience, the player may make a Charisma roll. For each success, the character recieves an automatic success when making Perform rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David 'Dr. Troll' Smith Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Pretty good but it introduces a new mechanic. The existing ones are 1) For every success you get an extra die (this is pretty weak and is mostly limited to the Mental Prodigies... although I think the Voice might involve this).2) +3 Autosucc (Non-combat rolls and/or social rolls).I'd suggest #2. Actually I'd suggest scrapping mechanic #1 totally and always going with #2 just on the theory that rolling fewer dice is better... but for some reason WW didn't ask me.

Preston Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 I agree. Three auto-successes, lasts for a scene. That seems to be the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold 'Mythic' Anderson Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Bear in mind that Carver's rules are essentially the same rules as Artistic Genius, only substituted into the Charisma and Mega-Charisma realm. If anything, her suggestion remains within the current system used for artistic endeavors and keeps things consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakinyan Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 If this goes over okay I am switching over for Wakinyan. It fits him much better than the Artistic does alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Craft Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 "The existing ones are ..."Or +3 dice - there's a few with that. Mostly because +3 succ would be a bigger advantage than it should be. Accuracy, for instance.I'd go with +3 succ for this, since it seems most in line with the others. Though, yes, it is pulling from Artistic Genius, so I guess it still follows, even though Artistic Genius is kind of the odd man out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPG Post Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Carver,After the forums discussion is finished, write it up using the format of the core book and submit for review by the Directors. PM it to me or one of the others.After you submit it, we will send it back approved, declined with recommendations, or rejected outright. Afterwards, assuming you are willing to donate it for public use, we add it to the list of approved enhancements.It isn't required, but posting it like this for forum discussion goes a long way to hammer out any problems ahead of time and speed up the review process.
