I don't think I've seen an MC on one of these quests who didn't have a roundabout/gimmicky way of fighting, so I'm rather excited to do things like:
- Manipulate a crowd of civilians into protecting us from harm.
- Convince a hero that no, really, we've changed our ways!.. and attack the moment they believe us.
- Walk into a bank and make the people there rob it for us.
- Make the MG's attack each other.
- Make a crane driver attempt to hit a girl with it.
Plus, it's not like we're stuck with just the one ability. We could still get more ways to fight, I just like the idea of saying 'nope' to combat, and making them do it for us. I just don't want to romance anything.
I'm somewhat reminded of Balor Gaze from Disgaea 5, which forced targets to fall in love with it's user, Seraphina.
An individual of culture I See! Actually that could TOTALLY be a mid to end game power up. Massive love hypnosis is kinda a cool thing. And simce were goimg a Bard route we could do so much with music. The classic buffs amd debuffs (Agnia and primrose from Octopath traveler 2 and 1) Literal Rock/electric/metal music or elemental charge music, healing songs, song to promote growth (plants maybe), status conditions (yes charm would work, but things like paralysis, poison and confusion can work depending on the tune. Fear and silemce as well now that I think about it). Our power sets could go in a lot of directions.......

Hopefully the thread calms down past this point, this voting period had some real bitterness going on and it's been unpleasant.
Thank you for clarifying the Beauty thing. The back and forths about brainwashing girls into harems was really weird and uncomfortable, this should put an end to that for now.
A higher Empathy score makes me inclined towards playing into social manipulation and if it's possible, leveraging our deeper understanding of people with Illusion magic to trick our enemies in combat.

As compensation, I'll probably do some Omakes for how alternate plans would have gone. Or at least map out what ideas I had brewing. Maybe both.
Which plans did you have in mind for this?
I don't think you should spend the effort of writing omakes unless you actually want to.

Whoever came up with the plan lost a lot of votes in my opinion because the stat distribution seems so random.
Nobody else had anything to say about the Starscream plan stats even though it came very close to winning, so I doubt it.

Which means that we are probably going to be the resident Buff/Debuff master. Stuff like Illusions is something I think we ought to take a serious interest in, alongside anything that can buff our allies defensive capabilities. Heck, even their offensive ones (We aren't the ones attacking after all).
And if someone manages to get their act together, either getting past our allies or breaking through our tricks whilst we're alone? Hit 'em with the Bishie Sparkles and laugh as their allies yell "OH MY GOD, RED, YOU USELESS LESBIAN!"
Just what I said: evil bard.

The next two, so Starscream and Lazy Idol. I had some thoughts about Cultist Origin too that I want to share. But I'll focus on the main quest first.

Hmm. I should go check out some Bard-themed character design, might be something we can copy.

All we gotta do is Bishy Sparkle them so hard that they can't even think about fighting us cause they have a case of the Yuri.

Theres just something about a woman in uniform... especially if they can kick your ass.
Or they can just kick your ass.... and you would thank them for it.

I mean that sure sounds more like mind control than a boost to attractiveness.

Based on what Rex said, I think it boils down to people going full monkey brain and being very stupid.
They're still acting of their own will. It's just bad decisions.

On a completly different note.... we need to workshop a Dark Magical girl design (porbably early but eh). *in a streotipical fashionista voice* *or genies voice)
Places people, places! We need a full on wardrobe black and grays in the forfront, dark blue, reds and purples as secondarys! We can debate if orange, greens or whatever in the meeting room. *grabs The MC* Cmon here darling, yes I know till to early to choose colors but thats secomdary to asthetic! Music is sooooo diverse, the earlier we begin the better. We have a rock look, punk rock is in... a more sophisticated conductor look, or we can enphazise the doom and gloom, maybe a more gothic look (its a classic!), or hmmm maybe combime it with your main weapon? Guitars are a classic darling we can even add an axe or a scythe to it! That demon hunter fellow a couple years back LOVED that thing. But maybe we could go with violin? I know we have ome that can summon dark creatures somewhere around, or are loud and proud girl? A trumpet will blow away the competition! No drums unless you have the strenght to carry them, sweety. Or maybe forgo an imstrument and go aaaaallll in on that voice sweety, really captivate your audience with words alone.

Chimes! Ethereala and dignified, but without snobbery; plus they can be a weapon in a pinch! And properly set up can be a magic focus too!

Wind instruments! Oh my Yami how could I forget. Mithrill your a live saver. Hmmm a softer approach can have its own charm. We could go with the classic harp, but uuuughh is soo cliche. Hmmm OH! How about a flute? Soft spoken maiden has their own fans, and when they least expect it YOU STAB THEM IN THE THROAT! Ooooh yes! The betrayal! The blood! Or if your squimish i have heard of a acient bard who turned his flute into a what do the youngins call it? A yes a lightsaber, it even had a funny name, hold on i do believe i have a picture of the fellow... aha!
Ugh so much pink. Pink is good dont get me wrong but as a primary? Ugh no no no. I will not let my canvas be ruined by such a Light color pallet! Not again . No good Lousy wannabe *grumbles about a heroic atelier rival they know* any way! Any suggestioms?

Not bad, not bad... but I guess I'll tell more about what I had in mind.
So, let's take a standard "fashionably antique" attire, something tight, but with some loose material and a couple layers, primarily in the back (I guess not unlike the middle one here, just as separate tassels and not one capelet), and then hang some wind chimes from those. And from sleeves. Not too large, but colourful and glimmering in a invitingly enigmatic way: darker blues semi-transparent veils, shine of a night sky rather than bright glare of a sun. High heels and sharp trousers with delicate verical striping for illusion of greater height. Finally a teasingly mysterious headwear and mask; and creme de la creme - a baton-wand with mini-chimes hanging from it as a main magical tool. Imagine: strolling with absolute confidence, plinking sound announcing our presence far - yet who is this individual, so much about them unseen but every glimpse just furthers the conviction that
the light in their eyes, the faint contours of their body, the laugh... and then we whip out the wand, our voice carries over the tinkling of the bells, magnifying and being magnified by them in turn, a one-person symphony of bells and chimes and songs, charming, enrapturing, terrific... Can you see it?
All right, I got carried away, but... seriously, thoughts?
