Finally edited in what the ever vague "Field Survival Kit" contains, most of it being gear that accomplish things his armor can already do, and so completely redundant so long as it remains intact.

Also added pictures of the dear Captain's rifle and pistol.

So I'm informed that at least one player has not posted IC at all since the start of the RP. I wasn't necessarily planning on joining this, as a result of already being overloaded on RPs, but they've been comparatively slow lately, and this has piqued my interest since I first saw it. That said, I'd like to make a character for this game, if only as a guest; is it safe to assume that JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is of an appropriate power tier for this RP, @Lugubrious?

@BCTheEntity lug wrote "stand user" somewhere in the example character template so you're pretty much good as long as it's an OC

@obliviousRoadie Fair enough. In that case, I can get on with making a character at some point in the near future. Stay tuned, ladies and gents.

Man, I resigned myself to a lot of work going with the format for the next post that I did. Stay tuned, folks. I've been working for more than 2 hours and I'm not about to give up yet.

Actually, everyone who signed up has posted by now, so we have no openings, but I could put you on the guest list and pre-maturely review a character sheet if you want to put one up. JJBA is an acceptable setting, but the specific power would have to be judged on whether it's too good or not. For instance, if your character's stand was The Fool or Earth, Wind, and Fire, that'd be alright, but I don't think I want to see any stands on the level of Cream or Killer Queen.

I don't believe Indra has posted yet, unless they have some other plans concerning the plot for Mika like ColoredCyan's Garbage.

You're quite right actually, Indra has failed to post, even though he's been active with other RPs. This is most vexing, but at the moment, I am not in a good place to make a decision. Since you and Indra are the 17th and 18th players, you were set to face one another in the first round, and then for the winner to immediately face someone else for their first round. What a quandary.

Alright, until I can be sure of the situation with @Indra, I will also hold out posting for @The Wild West to avoid setting up something that would need a messy retcon, but in the mean time, I have finished my 9-page post.

I apologize in advance for the somewhat messy and abrupt nature of each section. I would be glad to confer with any of you individually about what you can do, if nothing seems apparent. You have some freedom to create small parts of the world around you, so really, do what you feel like. The main objective is to find and fight your NPC opponent, but even if I haven't indicated something else you can do beforehand, something can be arranged. You can also encounter your opponents and interact with them if you so choose, but before you actually start a fight (which will follow the usual format, though there won't be any voting, and everyone will just win their three rounds, but please try to do a good job anyway as your work will help inform others of your characters' abilities and behavior later) give me some room to come in with the announcer and officiate the match.

I'm open for any questions, of course. If I made mistakes or missed something vital in my gargantuan trash pile, please don't hesitate to point it out.

More information about all of the City's areas can be found at the bottom of the OP, if you didn't know already.

Oh, and Draco: I'll do my best to get the final NPC, who is your opponent, up today.

@Lugubrious Oh, just so we're clear: I think it's safe to assume beings with a stronger lifeforce, such as many of the PCs, will be correspondingly more capable of tanking Heavy Fuel's life draining properties, since they evidently have more life energy to drain overall.

I also need to bring up the matter of Stands being invisible to non-Stand users in JJBA canon - I would nominally assume that for cross-universe purposes, only beings with a notable "sixth sense" such as from magical or psychic abilities would be able to see Stands, up to and including Stands themselves, consequently putting those without that sort of extrasensory power at a disadvantage against the invisible oil slick that's sucking out their life force. If you'd prefer, however, I can also have it that Heavy Fuel is visible to everybody in the tournament. If you could clarify which state of affairs you'd rather have, I'd appreciate it.

@Lugubrious Fair enough. To wit, I understand if you think Heavy Fuel is a bit overblown, but to my knowledge, nothing I've written up violates any setting rules of JJBA, and against other Stand users has the capacity to fail in any given sense. It's worth mentioning, if it's not already obvious, that Motley will not have all of the abilities of either the Ripple or vampirism, most notably the Vaporisation Freezing Technique. He has his own thing for that. Also, since it's worth mentioning, I'm going to suggest that he's either unclear on how, or outright unable, to hypnotise others with either powerset; as fun as that'd be in a more freeform RP, it strikes me as blatantly overpowered for a game that is essentially an OCT.

Er, when I said 'I'll get back to you', it wasn't saying that you're not approved, but I'll decide later. I'm actually a big fan of what you have so far.

That reminds me

@ColouredCyan, go ahead and port your sheet to the tab, and post at will.

@Lugubrious I know that. I just want to make sure all my cards are on the table before any judgements are made; clarity is a friend of people trying to do things. I may have further clarifications to make later on that I've not thought of yet, anyway.
