The Youkaiskin's animal magic probably needs to explain what the alternative is, because right now it doesn't seem to do so.

Lets say I'm a 16th level Youkaiskin.

Would it be possible for me to take summon nature's ally II on it's own, or would I have to keep taking druid spells until I had all eight spell levels fulfilled?

If you take Animal Magic at high levels, you can pick a high level spell even if you don't have any lower level ones.

No look, here's what I mean

I am a 16th level youkaiskin

I take only Summon Nature's Ally II. Nothing else

Is this legal?

Also, what's the fluff cause for Youkaiskins? Do people just sometimes randomly end up becoming them, or is it something you have to specifically work to attain? If youkaiskins just occur, why do they know martial arts?

Summon Nature's Ally does not have a range of touch or personal so it is not a legal choice.

However each selection of Animal Magic only gives you one single spell.

Ah my bad, I meant animal ritual, that one isn't limited to touch/personal range and can pick multiple spells.

And sure you can pick only Summon Nature's Ally II if for some reason you don't want anything else, although I'm not sure why you would want to do that.

Also, what's the fluff cause for Youkaiskins? Do people just sometimes randomly end up becoming them, or is it something you have to specifically work to attain?
Can happen either way, a natural talent (pun intended) or the result of lots of exotic training.

If youkaiskins just occur, why do they know martial arts?
It comes naturally to the natural talents, like dragons just learn sorceror magic and stuff.

I didn't even look to see if Animal Magic was the right ability, I can only deep dive into one project of yours at a time.  :lol

An observation regarding inyeraction between Eternal Royal and Lunatic Lancer: to keep the soul spear going, LL wants to avoid refreshing maneuvers. ER, on average, has trouble keeping maneuvers expended--you can hit a bad streak, but most times that won't be an issue.

Since ER is the class that explicitly gets to sub Septette (and its cleave replacement feat) in, it might help to be able to NOT roll to refresh. Otherwise you need several rounds' prep to use the whole thing of Lunatic Lancer  for more than a round.

Good point, made Eternal Royal recovery optional.

I've been requested to review Tobhou which shouldn't surprise anyone at all.

Os, any requests about where I start first?

The schools themselves first if you don't mind, since the project started with them and everything's kinda built around them. Also check each school's forbidden option after the "parent" school if possible.

So order suggestion would be:

Ancient Temple
Border of Life
Crystalized Silver
Doll Judgement
Dream Battle-»Fate of 60 years
Drunken Demon-»Marvelous Mt.Ooe
Love-Coloured Magic-»Cosmic Mind
Lunar Dial-»Dangerous Illusion
Lunatic Princess-»Immortal Smoke
Misteryous Millenium
Plain History-»Deaf to All But The Song
Riverside View-»Corpse Voyage
Septette for the Dead-»Diabolic Wave
Venerable Battlefield
Sky Ruin (technically works off Chinese Star but the author doesn't seem to be around the forums anymore to update it, but then neither have any unique mechanics).

Of course you want the hardest stuff to review to be first.   :lol

I should get at least Ancient Temple up before the end of the weekend.

I completely forgot about this. Sorry about that!

I'll try to get stuff up soon. Same as before and just post all feedback in the general thread?

Yay!

And actually I would prefer specific feedback to go in the specific thread if you don't mind.  :blush

Looking forward to getting a moon rabbit race. I can't wait to face off with invaders and immediately get scared and hide.

Now that you're back I should start reviewing again. Time to figure out what I was going to do next...

Lunatic Bunny Girls are go.

Crystallized Silver school would be next I believe.
