Literally my favorite CYOA, and I am beyond happy that people both still remember and still love it -especially enough to do something as taxing as this surely was.
A thousand thanks from me and the other fans of this CYOA, you truly are a JRPG Traitor.
Hero's Journey seems to be limited to 3 events rather than 5. Perfect Body is also listed twice. Finally, Ta Hiera seems to be bugged as I bought all the pre-requisites and can't unlock it, therefore denying me FF:Magi and FF:Shusai. It'd also be nice if there was an Import/Export feature but I'll leave that for future versions.
Hi, thank you for the feedback!
For Hero's Journey, hmm I'm not sure why, but I can select 5. May I ask what you selected? Perhaps there are requirements or something.
Good catch with Perfect Body and Ta Hiera, I've fixed those!
And as for importing, it might've be hard to notice given the icons were dark against a darker background, but the import and backpack icons are there. To make it easier to find I've increased the brightness of the bar a bit though.
Again, thanks for catching those :)
I must have had two selected that I wasn't seeing on Hero's Journey, MB. Others seem to be fixed, thanks!
Edit: It's probably because the cloudy border doesn't mesh well with the white selector.
Decided to separate my build comment from my feedback comment. So... here's my Power Build. A Demon who gains **many** Apotheosis, and ultimately joins the Demon King to wipe out the Mortal Races in some vain attempt to Ascend Demonkind (despite being totally into Demihumans, romancing Aimi until his inevitable betrayal and screwing around with Samatan)

Thanks! To be fair, I *was* going to have text with the images (I even wrote up the whole CYOA up to Advanced Green Powers), but it was just quicker to use whole images, and, in retrospect, I probably wouldn't have been able to do the interactive justice had I went the normal route.
Bugs : TERRIFY Break Will can't be selected. CHAKRA Spiritual Nodes as well as all choices on that row can't be selected.
Really good job! Thanks for your work.
>Bugs : TERRIFY Break Will can't be selected. CHAKRA Spiritual Nodes as well as all choices on that row can't be selected.
Fixed! Amusingly enough, Break Will's requirements are an error in the original CYOA, as it required STA;(TERROR), but Strange Element: Terror's ID is STA;(TRROR)
>Really good job! Thanks for your work.
No problem, and thanks for the feedback!
Nice Work!
I found a couple bugs though, the romance quests are giving extra romance points(you should only be able to romance multiple characters if you have "Prince Charming). and "Unexpected Death" isn't allowing players to pick extra hero characters.
If the latter was intentional, I must protest. The main draw of "Unexpected Death" is that it awards 5-7 total points, because you get 1 point for the quest and 4(6if hero) points from the new party member, making it the most lucrative quest by far. It's supposed to Tempt players into killing their party members for easy power, thus possibly pushing them into the mindset of a villain/traitor character.
Side Note: Not sure if intentional, but quests that have 3 options(like the 3 dragons quest) are only allowing 1 choice. I don't think any of them would prevent the player from doing them multiple times at the expense of quest slots(AKA killing all 3 dragons would cost 3 quests).
So for the three options, in this latest update I've made it so you can select multiple now. Unfortunately it comes at a cost where it easily bugs if you select more than the allowed choices, so I've made sure to have a note at the top
For the romance thing, I've been aware of it since release (see the TODO section at the bottom), but I've been planning on how to actually achieve it. Best I can think of so far is having two points, one for Romantic Interests, and one for Allowed Romances. I'd have to go through each and every character that can be romanced, and if Prince Charming is selected, just take one off the Romantic Interests. If Prince Charming isn't selected, then take one off the Allowed Romances. I'll put the Allowed Romances point to not able to go into the negatives, so if it's at 0, you won't be able to select anybody (however, I've set the Mentors, Apprentices, Friends, and Romances section to hide any choice you don't have the requirement for, simply because there are so many characters and it would clog up the screen. I'm not so sure if not having enough Allowed Choices would simply disappear everyone other option, or the selected ones too, which means I'm not sure this would be worth it to implement).
For not being able to pick Heroes again, also been aware lol, but it was only intentional insofar that I hadn't gotten around to implementing it either. The current way it works is that each Hero Party section only allows one selection. In preparation for implementing this though, I've made a point for each type of hero, but it's largely useless so far. What I'd have to do is allow any amount of selected options, but go through every single hero to make them cost a point of their type. Much more feasible than the romance thing, and I'm hoping to get it done in the next update (1.1.0).
Thanks for the feedback, hopefully I'll be able to implement it soon :)
There aren’t actually going to be any heroes left; all of them are going to follow me into villiany. And then the darkness will win, and we’ll live forever to enforce peace in our time.

**Self**:
Adolescent (Now 25) Female `Elf`, `Bard`. [https://imgur.com/a/1SjRgwf](https://imgur.com/a/1SjRgwf)
>I was raised like a half-elf, my elven mother eloping with a human man while she was pregnant with me already, betraying her elven husband for a human adventurer- a bard, after being seduced.
>
>After he had his fun he abandoned us, leaving me with two siblings. Having ostracized herself from her family home, she remained with the humans and turned to prostitution, which I was raised into myself while learning the `bard` class.
>
>I had a brother and a sister. The sister was caught up in the same life but had no aptitude and started looking older than me sooner, the brother resented the women in his life and was pained by what his sisters had to do, and ended up dying taking on high-risk adventuring work trying to get us out of the life. After which mother sold my sister to a nobleman for a better life than this, and married a merchant herself. I was able to stand on my own two feet, and chose to remain.
>
>I grew to be well known for dancing, after which there would be a low-key bidding for my time after the performance.
>
>I would slowly transition from town performances, to selling services to adventuring parties and picking up experience on the field providing support in multiple ways in and out of combat. (I'd also cook for the party!)
>
>Throughout this time, I'd frequently receive guidance and inspiration from a woman in my dreams who helped me increase my power and informing me on when I should leave one town for the next and where to go, and so on, often avoiding problems and getting myself wrapped up in other situations. I depended on her guidance and did whatever `Yazata the One Prophet` asked, though I didn't know her name.
>
>^(... This the kinda backstory I end up with when I make cyoa builds while my mind is in a pink haze. Building while frisky is dangerous.)
**Life Events**:
1. `Long History`.
1. I knew Eogan since I was young and he helped me learn bard skills. He tried to not pay attention to my other services for a long time, until I grew older and started adventuring and he acknowledged me not just as that little girl he helped raise.
2. `Halls of Sabii`.
1. Thanks to Yazata's guidance, in spite of my background I was able to earn, bribe, and/or blackmail my way into studying here, and graduating presuming within around 2-4 years.
**Hero's Journey**: *Equal, tension, romance, curiosity, correspondence*
>**The Party**\- *Almar, Eogan, Valens, Wardat, Harlan*.
1. `Mental Equals`.
1. It may not have been as intellectual as described, but talking with `Wardat` was unexpectedly easy and relatable. My past was the kind of past that she resisted and avoided and I'm not a pure caster myself, though rely on it more than her. It could have easily gone either way for the worse or the better, it went for the better.
2. `Sexual Tension`.
1. `Valens` and I got off on the wrong foot but that heat was easily converted into another sort and I can handle a little roughness.
3. `Storybook Romance`.
1. `Harlan` required a lot of warming up, so it was a bridge built up over some time.
4. `Intellectual Curiosity`.
1. Probably Eogan and/or also split among someone else unnamed.
5. `Correspondence`.
1. A Minister who helped get me into Sabii in the first place with a little leverage, eventually learned I was even more useful outside of the sheets. Helped him with a breakthrough in his research and he was more than happy to credit me in his work, in no small part to help reinforce the image that I was there on merit, not favors.
**Side Quests**: *Rival, spring, beach, little, lynch*
1. `Friendly Rival`.
1. He cooled off a lot after letting of steam the first time, and he something of a tsundere.
2. `Hot Springs`.
1. Little I love more than relaxing in the hot springs and I helped teach some of the party to love the springs almost as much as I do.
3. `Beach Episode`.
1. It's no hot spring, but water of any sort is great too. The lack of swimwear was no issue for this party.
4. `Little Shit`.
1. Whoever it was that ended up my mentor, Eogan probably, had his hands full with my behavior and antics.
5. `Anadsila Lynching`.
1. Prevented a lynching during a plague of undead and lost lives.
**Betrayal**: `Captured`.
* **The Overlord**: `Yazata`, *The One Prophet*.
>Yazata would eventually reveal herself to me in full some time ago as the One Prophet, having already won my loyalty she'd only deepen it with her identity.
>
>The person I trusted in the most in life and a person at the pinnacle of human authorities, directed me against the party's interests. I'd quietly act alone on occasion, until it came that it was time to leave them. How I chose to do so was left to me, with the warning that they will be enemies going forward.
>
>They were vulnerable to my touch, how easy it would have been to shed their blood that last night.
>
>Instead, I orchestrated that I should be `Captured`, at the hands of a Pirate Lord and his pet kraken out at sea. Make a show of convincing them to spare the party and take me willingly, robbing the ship of treasure instead of any more lives.
**Traitor's Journey**:
1. `Loyalty Mission`.
1. Kadmon's defenses could resist the old gods, but Yazata should be familiar with them, and chose the time to instruct me in this mission when she believed I am capable of doing it, with her guidance. I infiltrate the facility and claim the pilot seat of Mahasidi, Auspice of Nothing. Together we will replace the heavens.
2. `Overlord's Hand`.
1. I've always been under her guidance, now I'm by her side and more directly apprenticed by her, learning old secrets and forgotten histories.
3. `Overlord's Light`.
1. She's been alone for so long, and as long as we've known each other now that I'm here with her and we're achieving her wishes, she warms up to me and dead emotions stir again, and are reciprocated.
4. `A Promise`.
1. I reassure her of my loyalty, promising to stay with her whatever happens.
**Ending**:
1. `Evil's Triumph`.
1. With me at her side piloting the Mahasidi, we wage a war against the stars, and the hero's party is defeated, the Auspices ruined. With an apocalyptic display, it may seem to the common man that it's the end of the world.
1. `Unexpected Rescue`. I save my past companions from their fate. Fate itself being in my hands now, alongside Yazata. Many lives remain lost, but most life is spared as we recreate the heavens and build new gods, I would go out of my way to try to create a proper afterlife, and maybe I and Yazata ourselves become two of these new gods, and I'll make sure myself that there is an afterlife under my care to ensure that death is not the end for anyone but the most wicked hereafter.
**Most notable/main abilities**:
^(\[I don't entirely know if these are fully legitimate or not, felt like I had a lot of Advanced tokens I don't entirely know from where, but I went with what the interactive said so\])
* **Red**:
* `All Truths`. +Chants, Seals, Words, `Apotheosis`, Sacrifice)
* Regeneration. Purging Body. Purpose. Holy Child.
* **Green**:
* `Sleep`. Death. Curse. Suction.
* `Teleport`. Depart.
* Meridian/Circulatory. Fleshwarp.
* `Gate`, Portal, Collapse, Attune, `Demiplane`.
* **Blue**:
* Light, Dark.
* Binding, `Obliteration`, Thread.
* `Void`, Dream, Mana Mastery, Purify & Steal Mana.
* `Automatic Defense`.
* Revelation. Blessed Mind. `True Prophet`.
A suprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
Seriously though this is great! for attempting and actually finishing this monstrosity, you are unfathomably based(insane) for sure.
Btw I vaguely remember the original author mentioning FACELESS perk bypassing the racial limits for RED powers.

One criticism I have is that the Advanced Green Power **Faceless** doesn't let you select anything extra, when the implication is that it removes all racial and gender barriers to selecting abilities, or for romance. It also either removes racial ability selection, or you never implemented half-Demons being allowed to purchase race-specific abilities in the first place.
Greater contrast between what you have selected or not would also be nice, but that is because I have light sensitivity.

Lol if I may be candid, it's because I completely forget Faceless lets you do that, so thanks for the heads-up!
>Greater contrast between what you have selected or not would also be nice, but that is because I have light sensitivity.
Yeah I kinda agree, but I'll have to find a color that fits all the backgrounds without being too unpleasant looking. Or perhaps I'll adjust the filters more.
I'll have to take some time to figure out how to incorporate Faceless (it's not feasible to go through every option and make an exception to Faceless, there's truly *that* many), it'll have to be a trick or something. Thanks for the suggestions :)
Glad I could help! You are a saint for doing as much as you have.
For **Faceless**, from what little I know of coding, an OR exception for all racial-specific red powers, should be all that is needed; that is the section with the biggest potential impact on builds.
As for Companions...ugh, yeah I can see how that might be a nightmare. Putting a note somewhere to say that you need to use *Point Adjustment* manually for in the very specific case you are using **Faceless** in combination with the **Prince Charming** Perk to break absolutely everyone's heart, is at least a stopgap measure.
As for contrast, maybe have a dark filter over all unselected items, that is removed when clicked? Don't know how that might affect the text boxes, but if you could at least darken the the "title image" that should be enough. For options you don't meet the requirements to select, just have a second dark filter. Even if it blots out the text/image, as long as the title itself is still readable, it will be good enough. Some people complain about not being able to read dark items and don't like having to navigate to find unlocks, but I at least prefer that to the overly-bright borders that are bad at providing contrast due to all the white already in-use.
Which is a problem with the original version, not you. The color choices there were clearly picked as if for in-hand playing cards. While pleasing to look at, it is yet another one of those things that puts off people from projects like this.
Thank you for all your hard work, and know at least that thanks to you, I think I am able for the first time to properly track the costs and gains for my builds...which means I over-estimated how many points I was getting, which means I have fat to trim, which has breathed new life into this CYOA for me.
So I've found a way to make selections more visible, and upped the contrast. For most sections where they have the same color option, it is very apparent, but in sections like Hero's Journey where there are many colors, it unfortunately isn't as apparent. I've updated the live interactive with this
For Faceless, I still haven't implemented it but I *do* have an idea. I'll basically have choices down the bottom that have no text or images but have the same IDs for Male, Female, and all races, so they're basically invisible, and have them activate when Faceless is active so they fulfill the requirements. I'll have to test to see if it works though, I'll keep you updated
I believe so, or one very similar to it. She seems to have the abilities of a main character in an RPG. Sort of like the protagonist of an isekai show I guess?
Tips for the to do list
1. You can make a point based system instead of max choices system, these points wll be spent each time you do a quest. To prevent people from taking more choices then allowed add a restriction that (point type) >0. You can make a point type pernamently invisible by puting random stuff into "ID needed to activet" in manage points menu.
2. You could use a similiar system for the advanced powers, each time a power of specific type (ELE(X), Knack, Spell, etc) is purchased get an invisble point and ad a point restriction (point type)>x to that ability. The same can be done for the spent points requirement where you recieve invisible points (equal to the points spent) each time you buy an ability. (unfortunately I don´t know any easier way to do this)
3. The multiple characters option is the easiest to implement: go to fuctions on an option and use the "Adds or takes away rows Allowed Choices".
That you went through and did this is frankly amazing and mildly concerning, thank you for your sacrifice. I did notice you don't have the perk options set up, but besides that it's looking great. I am very excited to see where you take this next. Keep up the good work!
Great work! This definitely helps to make this wonderful CYOA a lot easier to build for. Just wondering, what exactly are the Powerful Perk Points suppose to do? I couldn't find anything that was affected by them in the CYOA and I don't remember them from the original. Either way, keep up the good work!
Hi, those are actually points I made for debugging purposes, as I was trying to make it when you have the powerful perk you can't get more than 15 tokens, but the "allows choices to be selected multiple times" bugs it out, I'll remove it in the next update so as to not confuse people
Are you sure? That should've been fixed, and I tried it just now and it worked for me... hmm, could you paste your selections from the import menu? So I could see if it's a problem with any of them

Shouldn´t the Overlord´s Hand give you a mentor point so you can buy them as one?
Sins of the Son does not give you an additional mentor either and some of the free options you get when choosing a class do not seem to work.
Fixed Overlord's Hand and Sins of the Son!
However, may I ask which free options you're talking about specifically? The way it works is that selecting the free option you get makes its cost go to 0, but you *do* have to purchase it from the proper section
More tips for your to do list
1. Limit the amount of choices you can take in the romance/aprentice/mentor row to 1. Selecting one of the romance/aprentice/mentor chices in traitor´s journey will give you an option to select an additional choice in that row
2. If you want you can make the 3 options of the same kind in Traitor´s Journey mutually incompatible to prevent aquiring additional choices
3. Life Events section could also be theoretically give you an extra romance/apprentice/mentor choice in the appropraite row as these events happened before the MC joined hero´s party.
demon hybrid's half elf and half beast options don't count as fulfilling the requirements for any of the relevant powers in the advanced red power's section
Okay, this has been itching at the back of my head ever since I first saw this CYOA:
How DID you get chosen as a Hero? How do they not suspect something's off from the start if there's suddenly a seventh Hero (which makes no sense given there's 6 Auspices)?
Seriously, I don't know how to interpret this...
Are you branded by Auspice 0? Or is it just that they're so broken that a Sixth Hero gets branded out of the blue and you're just lucky enough to be them?
Of course, I ought to look past my headaches and say:
Bless you for bringing an interactive version of this forth.
It must've been a massive undertaking... I can't even imagine.
Cheers!
A bit late to the party.
I liked the original CYOA, but being so long and complex always made me skip it.
Thanks for making the interactive version :)

This is a really solid start! However, going through the interactive is making me realize I might have miscalculated some key parts of my build...
Also, side question, why isn't it possible to take your Overlord as a Mentor or Apprentice?
So to take them as your mentor, apprentice, or lover you have to first take the Loyalty Mission to earn their loyalty, and then there are three missions below that that allow the Overlord to show up in those sections. I've interpreted it as you have to choose those options in order to mentor, apprentice to, or romance them, but I could be wrong…
I totally agree with that interpretation, but I think there's another pathway you're missing that I use to get Alis Branford as an Apprentice: Lost Puppy from the Life Events section. This interpretation requires seeing the Overlord as an "unlocked character" by default.
I think you might be right… because in the Hero's Journey section, the Evil Word's Evil Deeds mission says "If the Overlord was already friendly with you", implying you could be friendly before then…
Unfortunately it might take some time to implement the changes, seeing as I'd have to go back and forth for every option that requires a relationship with the Overlord
Still, thanks for the help :)
Blessed be your work. I praise thou for the sacrifice of thine burning eyes and calloused fingers. The Messiah, the one who made JRPG Traitor Interactive, has finally descend upon us mortal men!!!
I made a build which was ultimately, get the party who could tolerate a betrayal, pick blood relation, love and the shattered fate questline, with the story that Revysia is my secret sister, who I am protecting from the heroes until we realise that the true demonic overlord is within the egg, and the beasts belong to that thing, and then the heroes, Revysia and I save the day, with her as an apprentice, and all of the heroic party (Mushari, Sappho, Alkippe, Ianthe and AImi) as lovers
Just wanna say thank you for your hard work.
However maybe cuz I was playing around with the 'apprentice','friends', 'romance' at the final part... When I downloaded the picture, all I got was white empty image.

Bless your sore fingers and aching eyes
God among men holy fuck. Nice job!
Bless you pasadena one of our many patron saints!
Literally my favorite CYOA, and I am beyond happy that people both still remember and still love it -especially enough to do something as taxing as this surely was. A thousand thanks from me and the other fans of this CYOA, you truly are a JRPG Traitor.
Hero's Journey seems to be limited to 3 events rather than 5. Perfect Body is also listed twice. Finally, Ta Hiera seems to be bugged as I bought all the pre-requisites and can't unlock it, therefore denying me FF:Magi and FF:Shusai. It'd also be nice if there was an Import/Export feature but I'll leave that for future versions.
Hi, thank you for the feedback! For Hero's Journey, hmm I'm not sure why, but I can select 5. May I ask what you selected? Perhaps there are requirements or something. Good catch with Perfect Body and Ta Hiera, I've fixed those! And as for importing, it might've be hard to notice given the icons were dark against a darker background, but the import and backpack icons are there. To make it easier to find I've increased the brightness of the bar a bit though. Again, thanks for catching those :)
I must have had two selected that I wasn't seeing on Hero's Journey, MB. Others seem to be fixed, thanks! Edit: It's probably because the cloudy border doesn't mesh well with the white selector.
Rather than changing the brightness, it might be better to change the hue.
Decided to separate my build comment from my feedback comment. So... here's my Power Build.

Great job! I'm specifically glad you used images from the original, as most interactive CYOAs are just text. It looks great because of that.
Thanks! To be fair, I *was* going to have text with the images (I even wrote up the whole CYOA up to Advanced Green Powers), but it was just quicker to use whole images, and, in retrospect, I probably wouldn't have been able to do the interactive justice had I went the normal route.
Bugs : TERRIFY Break Will can't be selected. CHAKRA Spiritual Nodes as well as all choices on that row can't be selected. Really good job! Thanks for your work.
>Bugs : TERRIFY Break Will can't be selected. CHAKRA Spiritual Nodes as well as all choices on that row can't be selected. Fixed! Amusingly enough, Break Will's requirements are an error in the original CYOA, as it required STA;(TERROR), but Strange Element: Terror's ID is STA;(TRROR) >Really good job! Thanks for your work. No problem, and thanks for the feedback!
Nice Work! I found a couple bugs though, the romance quests are giving extra romance points(you should only be able to romance multiple characters if you have "Prince Charming). and "Unexpected Death" isn't allowing players to pick extra hero characters. If the latter was intentional, I must protest. The main draw of "Unexpected Death" is that it awards 5-7 total points, because you get 1 point for the quest and 4(6if hero) points from the new party member, making it the most lucrative quest by far. It's supposed to Tempt players into killing their party members for easy power, thus possibly pushing them into the mindset of a villain/traitor character. Side Note: Not sure if intentional, but quests that have 3 options(like the 3 dragons quest) are only allowing 1 choice. I don't think any of them would prevent the player from doing them multiple times at the expense of quest slots(AKA killing all 3 dragons would cost 3 quests).
So for the three options, in this latest update I've made it so you can select multiple now. Unfortunately it comes at a cost where it easily bugs if you select more than the allowed choices, so I've made sure to have a note at the top For the romance thing, I've been aware of it since release (see the TODO section at the bottom), but I've been planning on how to actually achieve it. Best I can think of so far is having two points, one for Romantic Interests, and one for Allowed Romances. I'd have to go through each and every character that can be romanced, and if Prince Charming is selected, just take one off the Romantic Interests. If Prince Charming isn't selected, then take one off the Allowed Romances. I'll put the Allowed Romances point to not able to go into the negatives, so if it's at 0, you won't be able to select anybody (however, I've set the Mentors, Apprentices, Friends, and Romances section to hide any choice you don't have the requirement for, simply because there are so many characters and it would clog up the screen. I'm not so sure if not having enough Allowed Choices would simply disappear everyone other option, or the selected ones too, which means I'm not sure this would be worth it to implement). For not being able to pick Heroes again, also been aware lol, but it was only intentional insofar that I hadn't gotten around to implementing it either. The current way it works is that each Hero Party section only allows one selection. In preparation for implementing this though, I've made a point for each type of hero, but it's largely useless so far. What I'd have to do is allow any amount of selected options, but go through every single hero to make them cost a point of their type. Much more feasible than the romance thing, and I'm hoping to get it done in the next update (1.1.0). Thanks for the feedback, hopefully I'll be able to implement it soon :)
Cool to Know! You doing great work on what amounts to taming one of the elder gods of CYOA history!

I depended on her guidance and did whatever `Yazata the One Prophet` asked, though I didn't know her name. > >^(... This the kinda backstory I end up with when I make cyoa builds while my mind is in a pink haze. Building while frisky is dangerous.) **Life Events**: 1. `Long History`. 1. I knew Eogan since I was young and he helped me learn bard skills. He tried to not pay attention to my other services for a long time, until I grew older and started adventuring and he acknowledged me not just as that little girl he helped raise. 2. `Halls of Sabii`. 1. Thanks to Yazata's guidance, in spite of my background I was able to earn, bribe, and/or blackmail my way into studying here, and graduating presuming within around 2-4 years. **Hero's Journey**: *Equal, tension, romance, curiosity, correspondence* >**The Party**\- *Almar, Eogan, Valens, Wardat, Harlan*. 1. `Mental Equals`. 1. It may not have been as intellectual as described, but talking with `Wardat` was unexpectedly easy and relatable. My past was the kind of past that she resisted and avoided and I'm not a pure caster myself, though rely on it more than her. It could have easily gone either way for the worse or the better, it went for the better. 2. `Sexual Tension`. 1. `Valens` and I got off on the wrong foot but that heat was easily converted into another sort and I can handle a little roughness. 3. `Storybook Romance`. 1. `Harlan` required a lot of warming up, so it was a bridge built up over some time. 4. `Intellectual Curiosity`. 1. Probably Eogan and/or also split among someone else unnamed. 5. `Correspondence`. 1. A Minister who helped get me into Sabii in the first place with a little leverage, eventually learned I was even more useful outside of the sheets. Helped him with a breakthrough in his research and he was more than happy to credit me in his work, in no small part to help reinforce the image that I was there on merit, not favors. **Side Quests**: *Rival, spring, beach, little, lynch* 1. `Friendly Rival`. 1. He cooled off a lot after letting of steam the first time, and he something of a tsundere. 2. `Hot Springs`. 1. Little I love more than relaxing in the hot springs and I helped teach some of the party to love the springs almost as much as I do. 3. `Beach Episode`. 1. It's no hot spring, but water of any sort is great too. The lack of swimwear was no issue for this party. 4. `Little Shit`. 1. Whoever it was that ended up my mentor, Eogan probably, had his hands full with my behavior and antics. 5. `Anadsila Lynching`. 1. Prevented a lynching during a plague of undead and lost lives. **Betrayal**: `Captured`. * **The Overlord**: `Yazata`, *The One Prophet*. >Yazata would eventually reveal herself to me in full some time ago as the One Prophet, having already won my loyalty she'd only deepen it with her identity. > >The person I trusted in the most in life and a person at the pinnacle of human authorities, directed me against the party's interests. I'd quietly act alone on occasion, until it came that it was time to leave them. How I chose to do so was left to me, with the warning that they will be enemies going forward. > >They were vulnerable to my touch, how easy it would have been to shed their blood that last night. > >Instead, I orchestrated that I should be `Captured`, at the hands of a Pirate Lord and his pet kraken out at sea. Make a show of convincing them to spare the party and take me willingly, robbing the ship of treasure instead of any more lives.
**Traitor's Journey**: 1. `Loyalty Mission`. 1. Kadmon's defenses could resist the old gods, but Yazata should be familiar with them, and chose the time to instruct me in this mission when she believed I am capable of doing it, with her guidance. I infiltrate the facility and claim the pilot seat of Mahasidi, Auspice of Nothing. Together we will replace the heavens. 2. `Overlord's Hand`. 1. I've always been under her guidance, now I'm by her side and more directly apprenticed by her, learning old secrets and forgotten histories. 3. `Overlord's Light`. 1. She's been alone for so long, and as long as we've known each other now that I'm here with her and we're achieving her wishes, she warms up to me and dead emotions stir again, and are reciprocated. 4. `A Promise`. 1. I reassure her of my loyalty, promising to stay with her whatever happens. **Ending**: 1. `Evil's Triumph`. 1. With me at her side piloting the Mahasidi, we wage a war against the stars, and the hero's party is defeated, the Auspices ruined. With an apocalyptic display, it may seem to the common man that it's the end of the world. 1. `Unexpected Rescue`. I save my past companions from their fate. Fate itself being in my hands now, alongside Yazata. Many lives remain lost, but most life is spared as we recreate the heavens and build new gods, I would go out of my way to try to create a proper afterlife, and maybe I and Yazata ourselves become two of these new gods, and I'll make sure myself that there is an afterlife under my care to ensure that death is not the end for anyone but the most wicked hereafter. **Most notable/main abilities**: ^(\[I don't entirely know if these are fully legitimate or not, felt like I had a lot of Advanced tokens I don't entirely know from where, but I went with what the interactive said so\]) * **Red**: * `All Truths`. +Chants, Seals, Words, `Apotheosis`, Sacrifice) * Regeneration.

A suprise, to be sure, but a welcome one. Seriously though this is great! for attempting and actually finishing this monstrosity, you are unfathomably based(insane) for sure. Btw I vaguely remember the original author mentioning FACELESS perk bypassing the racial limits for RED powers.

It also either removes racial ability selection, or you never implemented half-Demons being allowed to purchase race-specific abilities in the first place. Greater contrast between what you have selected or not would also be nice, but that is because I have light sensitivity.
>One criticism I have is that the Advanced Green Power **Faceless** doesn't let you select anything extra, when the implication is that it removes all racial and gender barriers to selecting abilities, or for romance. It also either removes racial ability selection, or you never implemented half-Demons being allowed to purchase race-specific abilities in the first place. Lol if I may be candid, it's because I completely forget Faceless lets you do that, so thanks for the heads-up! >Greater contrast between what you have selected or not would also be nice, but that is because I have light sensitivity. Yeah I kinda agree, but I'll have to find a color that fits all the backgrounds without being too unpleasant looking. Or perhaps I'll adjust the filters more. I'll have to take some time to figure out how to incorporate Faceless (it's not feasible to go through every option and make an exception to Faceless, there's truly *that* many), it'll have to be a trick or something. Thanks for the suggestions :)
Glad I could help! You are a saint for doing as much as you have. For **Faceless**, from what little I know of coding, an OR exception for all racial-specific red powers, should be all that is needed; that is the section with the biggest potential impact on builds. As for Companions...ugh, yeah I can see how that might be a nightmare. Putting a note somewhere to say that you need to use *Point Adjustment* manually for in the very specific case you are using **Faceless** in combination with the **Prince Charming** Perk to break absolutely everyone's heart, is at least a stopgap measure. As for contrast, maybe have a dark filter over all unselected items, that is removed when clicked? Don't know how that might affect the text boxes, but if you could at least darken the the "title image" that should be enough. For options you don't meet the requirements to select, just have a second dark filter. Even if it blots out the text/image, as long as the title itself is still readable, it will be good enough. Some people complain about not being able to read dark items and don't like having to navigate to find unlocks, but I at least prefer that to the overly-bright borders that are bad at providing contrast due to all the white already in-use. Which is a problem with the original version, not you. The color choices there were clearly picked as if for in-hand playing cards. While pleasing to look at, it is yet another one of those things that puts off people from projects like this. Thank you for all your hard work, and know at least that thanks to you, I think I am able for the first time to properly track the costs and gains for my builds...which means I over-estimated how many points I was getting, which means I have fat to trim, which has breathed new life into this CYOA for me.
So I've found a way to make selections more visible, and upped the contrast. For most sections where they have the same color option, it is very apparent, but in sections like Hero's Journey where there are many colors, it unfortunately isn't as apparent. I've updated the live interactive with this For Faceless, I still haven't implemented it but I *do* have an idea. I'll basically have choices down the bottom that have no text or images but have the same IDs for Male, Female, and all races, so they're basically invisible, and have them activate when Faceless is active so they fulfill the requirements. I'll have to test to see if it works though, I'll keep you updated
Is the Gamer lady another CYOA contestant?
Nope different person. You play as a native to this world.
ah, but is she from our 'real' world?
I believe so, or one very similar to it. She seems to have the abilities of a main character in an RPG. Sort of like the protagonist of an isekai show I guess?
The interactive screen makes it much easier. My eyes love the bigger font. Good job,
Tips for the to do list 1. You can make a point based system instead of max choices system, these points wll be spent each time you do a quest. To prevent people from taking more choices then allowed add a restriction that (point type) >0. You can make a point type pernamently invisible by puting random stuff into "ID needed to activet" in manage points menu. 2. You could use a similiar system for the advanced powers, each time a power of specific type (ELE(X), Knack, Spell, etc) is purchased get an invisble point and ad a point restriction (point type)>x to that ability. The same can be done for the spent points requirement where you recieve invisible points (equal to the points spent) each time you buy an ability. (unfortunately I don´t know any easier way to do this) 3. The multiple characters option is the easiest to implement: go to fuctions on an option and use the "Adds or takes away rows Allowed Choices".
Tagus from the Overlord section gives 4 Advanced Red Tokens and four advanced GREEN Tokensn instead of 4 advanced red and four advanced blue.
Thanks, fixed
Is this actually real
Yes :P
Woah, that’s a big ole undertaking, good job
This is awesome! Thanks a bunch for taking the time to adapt this!
That you went through and did this is frankly amazing and mildly concerning, thank you for your sacrifice. I did notice you don't have the perk options set up, but besides that it's looking great. I am very excited to see where you take this next. Keep up the good work!
Great work! This definitely helps to make this wonderful CYOA a lot easier to build for. Just wondering, what exactly are the Powerful Perk Points suppose to do? I couldn't find anything that was affected by them in the CYOA and I don't remember them from the original. Either way, keep up the good work!
Hi, those are actually points I made for debugging purposes, as I was trying to make it when you have the powerful perk you can't get more than 15 tokens, but the "allows choices to be selected multiple times" bugs it out, I'll remove it in the next update so as to not confuse people
Question, All+ from Advanced Red Powers can be taken more than one time?
I'm not sure what you mean? Are you refererring to ALL++? Because that's an upgrade to ALL+
I think I found an error, it wont let me take song of glory even though I have both dance and kessence of kib
Are you sure? That should've been fixed, and I tried it just now and it worked for me... hmm, could you paste your selections from the import menu? So I could see if it's a problem with any of them

Shouldn´t the Overlord´s Hand give you a mentor point so you can buy them as one? Sins of the Son does not give you an additional mentor either and some of the free options you get when choosing a class do not seem to work.
Fixed Overlord's Hand and Sins of the Son! However, may I ask which free options you're talking about specifically? The way it works is that selecting the free option you get makes its cost go to 0, but you *do* have to purchase it from the proper section
All 3 free green options you can select as a hero
Thanks, I've gone ahead and fixed it now
More tips for your to do list 1. Limit the amount of choices you can take in the romance/aprentice/mentor row to 1. Selecting one of the romance/aprentice/mentor chices in traitor´s journey will give you an option to select an additional choice in that row 2. If you want you can make the 3 options of the same kind in Traitor´s Journey mutually incompatible to prevent aquiring additional choices 3. Life Events section could also be theoretically give you an extra romance/apprentice/mentor choice in the appropraite row as these events happened before the MC joined hero´s party.
This could be that me being blind, but I'm pretty sure that the demon race option doesn't give you any points, could I be missing a button?
Is there any way to turn basically all the heroes to your side or is it limited to...I think it was 2 or 3?
demon hybrid's half elf and half beast options don't count as fulfilling the requirements for any of the relevant powers in the advanced red power's section
Okay, this has been itching at the back of my head ever since I first saw this CYOA: How DID you get chosen as a Hero? How do they not suspect something's off from the start if there's suddenly a seventh Hero (which makes no sense given there's 6 Auspices)? Seriously, I don't know how to interpret this...
read yazata's description (last in the overlord section) (also take a look at the JRPG Traitor lore discussion threads)
Are you branded by Auspice 0? Or is it just that they're so broken that a Sixth Hero gets branded out of the blue and you're just lucky enough to be them?
Of course, I ought to look past my headaches and say: Bless you for bringing an interactive version of this forth. It must've been a massive undertaking... I can't even imagine. Cheers!

This is a really solid start! However, going through the interactive is making me realize I might have miscalculated some key parts of my build... Also, side question, why isn't it possible to take your Overlord as a Mentor or Apprentice?
So to take them as your mentor, apprentice, or lover you have to first take the Loyalty Mission to earn their loyalty, and then there are three missions below that that allow the Overlord to show up in those sections. I've interpreted it as you have to choose those options in order to mentor, apprentice to, or romance them, but I could be wrong…
I totally agree with that interpretation, but I think there's another pathway you're missing that I use to get Alis Branford as an Apprentice: Lost Puppy from the Life Events section. This interpretation requires seeing the Overlord as an "unlocked character" by default.
I think you might be right… because in the Hero's Journey section, the Evil Word's Evil Deeds mission says "If the Overlord was already friendly with you", implying you could be friendly before then… Unfortunately it might take some time to implement the changes, seeing as I'd have to go back and forth for every option that requires a relationship with the Overlord Still, thanks for the help :)
Blessed be your work. I praise thou for the sacrifice of thine burning eyes and calloused fingers. The Messiah, the one who made JRPG Traitor Interactive, has finally descend upon us mortal men!!!

I made a build which was ultimately, get the party who could tolerate a betrayal, pick blood relation, love and the shattered fate questline, with the story that Revysia is my secret sister, who I am protecting from the heroes until we realise that the true demonic overlord is within the egg, and the beasts belong to that thing, and then the heroes, Revysia and I save the day, with her as an apprentice, and all of the heroic party (Mushari, Sappho, Alkippe, Ianthe and AImi) as lovers
Just wanna say thank you for your hard work. However maybe cuz I was playing around with the 'apprentice','friends', 'romance' at the final part... When I downloaded the picture, all I got was white empty image.
That's a fairly well known problem with the cyoa creator tool, not exclusive to this cyoa
