Welcome to UTUTU: A Multiplayer Kaiju Quest!
This quest will run on the World of Titans system developed by KaijuQM. Please see attached .pdf for additional details.
<span class="mu-s">I am soliciting TWELVE (12) players to join this multiplayer Kaiju quest over the next 48 hours!</span>
Some adaptations that I am making for plot/setting reasons:
Spiritual power (amandla) is replacing radioactive energy, and importantly, this amandla can be attuned to five possible elemental states: fire, water, earth, air, or balanced/unaligned. Amandla can be used by players to empower any action and raise the tier of that action per unit of amandla spent, but this bonus is doubled when the amandla type aligns with a particular action*:
Fire -> Attack
Water -> Dodge
Earth -> Defend
Air -> Special
Unaligned -> N/A
*Kaiju may spend an action converting amandla of one subtype to another. Importantly, if a Kaiju has filled their amandla pool with one alignment only, they may spend their entire pool and may convert their elemental alignment to one of these below:
Umlilo (Fire): Actions against Air-aligned Kaiju and cities are one more tier effective. Comes with a free STR tier upgrade, and Kaiju of this class gain the “Firestorm” ability – they may ignite the entire world map square they reside within, and this effect persists while they remain within the square. All cities and Kaiju present will be attacked by the Firestorm once per turn so long as the effect is maintained, at tier (STR-1) of the progenitor Kaiju.
Umhlaba (Earth): Actions against Fire-aligned Kaiju and cities are one more tier effective. Comes with a free STA tier upgrade, and Kaiju of this class gain the “Mobile Fortress” ability – any constructed hideout may slowly traverse the world map at one square per turn, and becomes capable of self-defense – retaliating at tier (STR-1) of the progenitor Kaiju.
Amanzi (Water): Actions against Earth-aligned Kaiju and cities are one more tier effective. Comes with a free SPD upgrade and Kaiju of this class gain the “Wave Caller” ability – if present on a water map square, they may spend one turn summoning a massive wave that can push other Kaiju out of the map square into adjacent squares. This special action does no damage and success depends on size; Kaiju of smaller size will travel farther.
Umoya (Air): Actions against Water-aligned Kaiju and cities are one more tier effective. Comes with a free SPC tier upgrade, and also receive the powerful
“Jet Stream” ability – they may spend a full three actions to enter the upper atmosphere of UTUTU and may travel at extreme speed from there – all movement actions are doubled, but travel at such extreme speed costs one amandla per three actions of movement. Returning to the ground is a free action. Kaiju in the upper atmosphere may be attacked by other Kaiju at similar altitude, and cannot be targeted by Kaiju on the ground.
Ibhalansi (Balanced): N/A.
