#funaday2026 Day 24 - A more recent complaint I've had regarding the customs world is how unfun it is for nothing to ever land. Pure avoids, team wide defenses, and Negates have proliferated throughout the landscape and it just feels like nothing happens for whole games. LRG has really succeeded here, taking Negates' potential into account when calculating a Character's Threat Level and nerfing Avoids across the board.

When I started to think about what the Bride should do, I knew that I wanted her Specials to synergize with her Inherent Ability and provide some heavy pressure, but I think it would be too easy to just give her answers for absolutely everything, contributing to the power creep customs often lurches towards. (I'm looking at you, post-'99 Batman!)

So, here's the start to the Bride's revenge tour. A friend in the community has assures me it doesn't feel bad, but only proper testing will tell! I think "Walk Away" is limited enough that it won't warrant an OPD designation, while still being useful to the person running ol' Bea.

More catch up imminent.

#funaday2026 Day 20 - Quick Energy/Fighting remodel of "A New Kind of Ring," "The Last Blade of Hattori Hanzō" feels like a natural choice to EMPOWER characters fit for fighting.

Gotta figure out the Strength and Intellect ones next, but not sure where I'll land with those quite yet. Chime in if you've got any suggestions, ya nerds!

Two things:

1) I'm thinking of reworking how EMPOWER works already by lowering the value of the card you can pull, which I think would allow me to do one or both of the following: a) let the card be a duplicate and b) let the card be placed directly to the Artifact itself, freeing up the Character's own placing slot for bigger PCs.

2) Wow, I hate Quentin Tarantino as a person but I really love Kill Bill!

#funaday2026 Day 19: spent a lazy day rewatching three movies I've been meaning to get back to for a while: Boogie Nights and Kill Bill 1 & 2, and while Dirk Diggler's massive... weapon doesn't seem a great fit for OP, the Bride certainly does.

Jeeny pushed me to cook her up and here we are! One of the most dogged and deadly assassins, Beatrix Kiddo's revenge tour left a trail of bodies across the globe.

I've got a few ideas for the rest of her kit, but the plan is to make her fast, combo heavy, and hard to kill.
