2025 Character Creation Challenge 31: Ars Magica 5e

 And finally for day 31 is for Ars Magica 5e. Of all the systems that I chose for this challenge, this is the one that I was both looking forward to and dreading the most. This system not only lets you play as wizards, but as wizards that culvtivate, design and create their own spells. Not only that, its a game where unlike d&d where game is usually snapping a few round to tops a few days, some sessions can span YEARS of ingame time, Making it sorta of a legacy game, where because your wizard most likely is going to spend most of their time in their tower resarching spells. Most of the action is going to be playing as their apprentecies or grogs. But for this I stuck to making a wizard, Figured it was invovled enough. 

Not sure abot how viable of a wizard this guy is, i mostly picked things that seemed cool. Even if I might not get most of the rules still the system does intrigue me in a way where I do eventually play a session or two to see how its like. I suppose that is what this challenge is about, to discover what is out there and to see what kinds of new character and stories you can get by finding new ways of playing in this hobby.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 30: Perfect Draw!

 Day 30 is for Perfect Draw! A game meant to replicate the feeling of Yu Gi Oh and other solve-every-problem-by-playing-a-childrens-card-game-like show or game out there. As someone who has played quite a bit of Yu-Gi-Oh in the past, luckily you don't need to know how to play it or even need to know any card game for that matter, its meant to replicate the show and the feeling more than the actuall game, And while you do make physical cards that you draw for the game, You are also able to make up cards on the spot with some guidance, to better replicate the "Perfect Draw" moment the shows tend to have.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 29: Super Blood Harvest

 Day 29 is for Super Blood Harvest. Another pretty simple one. Was mostly drawn to the setting for this one. Where you are people who have been captured in a spaceship run by vampires. Like the art in the book aswell. Again not much to say about today's one.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 28: Invisible Sun

 Day 28 is for Invisible Sun. This game is quite facinating, all players play as Visalae, Which is basically a caster or wizard, or anyone that can use magic. But its's designed where how you cast it is very unique to what type you are, and there are some character options that even the game master doesn't know you have. So this characters soul is not written down here for example and thats by design. With that being said, Cool system but it might actually have a little too much going on. There's like weird color system thing that have to do with cards, symbols that only interact when its drawn from a card dack, yadda yadda. I'm mainly just here to make a character.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 27: Star Trek Adventures 2e

 Day 27 is for Star Trek Adventures 2e. As a pretty recent fan of Star Trek, I must say that this system is a lot better than I excepted it to be. It combines both the flavor of the setting very well and the mechanics feel good to use, This game like Burning Wheel also has a lifepath system, though I must say I prefer this one as its way easier to use. Now I just need to find a group who both plays ttrpgs and likes Star Trek.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 26: Burning Wheel

Day 26 is for Burning Wheel. A system I've a lot about but didn't know much of before this challenge. Whit I knew is that it had a pretty significant lifepath system for character creation and a unique system for social interationsthat kinda becomes like an encounter of itself. While I've not had the chance to try out the social system I've definetly used the lifepath system this game has. I do like how different it is compared to other ways of making characters in that regard, And while I'm not usually the biggest fan of low-magic fantasy, I can see myself trying this.

2025 Character Creation Challenge 25: Mothership

Day 25 is for the system Mothership. I've already made a character in a system made with the same engine, That being Cloud Princess. But here is the original system. Which for I say, the rules with like sanity and such, make way more sense in this game over Cloud Princess. Not to say that that system is bad by any means. Anywho, System is pretty strightforward to make a character in, not much to say aside from that.
