Is Lunar Dial going to get a forbidden school for people who aren't obsessed with knives?  :p

The only other Touhou maid I can think of is a nuclear powered robot. Who may also have thrown knives at you.

Anyway, about the higher levels of metal maid assuming you took the pure crafting, maybe it should be something that can be taken twice?

All the Metal Maid options after the first assume that you have Pure Crafting, but the first one can grant you proficiencies instead.
Intended, basically you can grab the proficiencies and then be able to craft alloy simple and exotic light weapons at half cost, but you wouldn't be able to craft any other pure metal items.

Sounds like an intesting idea to consider.

Could also make a feat for allowing Luna Dial to work with any weapons.

Also remember that Modern Maid also allows to use Arsenal weapons with Luna Dial.

The only other Touhou maid I can think of is a nuclear powered robot. Who may also have thrown knives at you.

Kudos for you to remember that ending. Reimu managed to break/wear down the poor girl though, I even wrote some fanfiction where she's found and repaired.

Besides my previous reply, remember that all the servant options can be picked multiple times by sacrificing higher level picks.

But that wouldn't allow for overriding this clause, would it?

None may be taken more than once unless otherwise specified.

Metal Maid doesn't allow you to select it more than once, so even using Perfect and Elegant Servant to take a Specialized Servant option wouldn't work.

Ok, added clause to make it possible to pick multiple times.

Dangerous Illusion, Sakuya's forbidden school up!

Probably needs a bit of polishing around the corners but the crunch should all be there.

That's probably one of the things that made Touhou so popular, in one hand you've got all the cute girls doing cute things. But then there's plenty of hints that things may be pretty dark spread all around, and you basically can go either (or even both) way(s) depending on how you interpret the fluff.

Like how human society in Gensyoko may be completely at the mercy of the youkai politics.

Forbidden Cost: You lose ranks in physical skills equal to your Forbidden Price as your body becomes more and more of a tool for cutting.

You lose ranks in physical skills? Like... Sleight of Hand? That seems awfully inconvenient (similar funny deal with Metal Maid--unless you can afford the mythral version of whatever you're making, it's going to tank your SoH checks).

Nice to see you can literally be Dio if you're willing to dress like a maid, though. :p

Deaf to all but the Song is based in a mental skill and eats up your mental ranks.

You could take the schools with a non-maid class too. :P

Also good point in armor screwing over Dex-based skill checks, buffed Metal maid to allow the maid to ignore that penalty.
