Characters will start with E.G.O., a special equipment created from an Abnormality which allows the user to tap into said Abnormality's powers and use them in their favour. They are present on your character as an item of some form, typically as some manner of clothes or item; see your individual E.G.O. info for more details.
E.G.O. can be activated once your character has three bars of emotion/energy, which will be tracked by the following UI.
RODION
There will be two types of energy—positive and negative. Positive energy (PE) is gained through successful actions, while negative energy (NE) is gained through failures.
The ratio of PE:NE in possession at the time of activating E.G.O. may determine what kind of effects or traits your equipment will manifest. Using E.G.O. with NE in possession has the chance to cause a Corrosion, which may have adverse and/or unpredictable effects.
If new PE/NE is gained while the gauge is full, held PE/NE will be discarded in order of oldest; e.g. if character already holds
, and then proceeds to fail an action, their new emotion gauge would be
.
Feel free to ask any time about any more info regarding E.G.O. usage.
An Offense-oriented E.G.O. Upon use, allows the user to summon burning chains and imbue their physical self with some element of fire, increasing their physical attack and imbuing the enemy with Burn and Tremor.
Upon Corrosion, it [[ERROR: NOT ENOUGH OBSERVATION DATA TO FILL OUT ENTRY. SINNER MUST CREATE OBSERVATIONS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS ABNORMALITY.]].
A Utility-oriented E.G.O. Upon use, allows the user to spawn a present box which randomly spawns either a positive effect for your allies, or a negative effect to your enemies, whichever is more applicable in the situation or as per the player's wishes.
Upon Corrosion, it [[ERROR: NOT ENOUGH OBSERVATION DATA TO FILL OUT ENTRY. SINNER MUST CREATE OBSERVATIONS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS ABNORMALITY.]].
CORROSION REPORT: On usage, subject's body appeared to distort and crush itself into the shape of a present box where it laid mere seconds before exploding outward in a tide of blood and viscera. Its origins are unknown. Subject transformed into a monstrosity covered in tinsel and balloons in what appeared to be a terrible mockery of holiday spirit. The Abnormality appears to be driven by hatred and spite, willing to indiscriminately run over and harm all in its way.
An Offense-oriented E.G.O. Upon use, allows the user to gain temporary mechanical augmentation which adds advantage to any strength-based checks or physical attacks, and/or grants temporary shield or heightened defense in form of said augmentation.
Upon Corrosion, it [[ERROR: NOT ENOUGH OBSERVATION DATA TO FILL OUT ENTRY. SINNER MUST CREATE OBSERVATIONS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THIS ABNORMALITY.]].
CORROSION REPORT: On usage, subject's body was forcibly replaced with mechanical augmentations intended to make subject harder, faster, stronger, better. Strength increased by 1000%, while subject became entirely focused on completing their task at hand. The Abnormality fused completely with a portion of the subject's body, becoming irremovable even after Corrosion ended.
