thinking about how to create the feeling of the anime Noein in valor

Because noein was fuckin nuts

The actual fight scenes can be done fine just out of the box

I’m just trying to think about the umbilicals

Noein is a surreal sci-fi anime about visitors from another dimension on Earth
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
They’re looking for a must power that is the only hope of saving their homeworld from invasion by a third dimension
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
They have all kinds of crazy bs powers
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
But they also have trouble existing in our universe
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
To the point that they have like
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
Basically a permanent IV plugged into their legs
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
With a cable leading into a tiny portal back to their dimension that follows them around and keeps them topped off on “able to exist” juice
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
Which also fuels their powers
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
And the main guy ends up going rogue
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
So he’s lost his power cable
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
So he’s super badass but also has functionally no way to recharge his powers once he uses them up AND his existence is slowly becoming more and more unstable

Karasu vs Fukurou - NOEIN [Best Scenes In Anime]

1: the redhead has a power cable trailing behind him while the blond doesn’t

2: the fight scenes in Noein are wild

I think if you wanted to do something like this... I'd probably rule that you don't regain Stamina while resting, and every time you hit 0 stamina, you go back up to full minus one increment.

If the condition gets really bad, maybe you don't have any natural valor gain.

I just really like the aesthetic of finding the real world to be a hostile environment that you need specialized equipment to survive in

The Matrix hits this feeling a bit too

TheDoomkitten: the idea I had was that everyone just has a power meter that starts at 10
![](https://avatars.plurk.com/7411940-medium53106982.gif)
Gabiluzbad
And you don’t get health or stamina between scenes unless you use one power up

oh that's also good

I'd probably rule that you get one power meter point every time you full rest, but make full rests really few and far between.

Maybe you can also use power mid fight

Gabiluzbad
For instant stamina and health

Gabiluzbad
You can always just push through

As long as you have some power left

But you might need that later

I’m gonna file this away for future use
