That's alright, I guess.

Sorry to hear that. I hope you will be able to recover.

@BCTheEntity, looks like you're up. Knowing that you weren't a proper part of the roster yet, I did not completely evaluate your character, and now that I've had the chance I wish to make some alterations. In his current state, Crue has the powers of: zombie creation, fusion, enhanced senses, Space Ripper Stingy Eyes, regeneration, contact freezing, flush buds, hypnosis, increased strength, increased speed, blood sucking, the unstoppable telekinetic abilities characteristic to a stand, and all the abilities of hamon, including disintegration/necrosis, self-healing, static charge, and martial arts.

Doesn't that seem a bit too much?

I ask that you remove all vampiric abilities except for enhanced physical abilities, regeneration, blood sucking, and enhanced senses. In addition, I would appreciate lessening the degree to which the negative hamon 'rapidly kills' whoever it touches. Right now, your character has so many powers, and such high durability coupled with a death sentence against any who touch him, that he seems practically unassailable.

@Lugubrious I feel like you should've checked the character before accepting him, even given that he was put into the guest list first. With that in mind, I have stated before that many of those abilities are things Crue can't do, having not taught himself how; I'm perfectly willing to reduce his vampiric arsenal to what you've suggested and limit the fatality of Heavy Fuel and the Anti-Ripple, perhaps by arguing that "it affects beings from non-JoJo settings less effectively for unknown reasons" or whatever (the actually-undead entities aside of course, who would be correspondingly less affected or even benefited from a Dead Ripple charge), though I'm tempted to suggest that zombification may also be an ability vampires can perform as standard, given that all vampires have "vampiric essence".

There's also the matter of Motley's Lightning Mode, basically his version of the freezing technique, though I'd imagine it's more limited defensively speaking, since where Dio could just lower his body temperature at the point of impact, Motley has to go through a somewhat more complicated procedure of internal rearrangement. If you like, I can explain the Lightning Mode and the associated techniques I have in mind in detail in a PM, or else whatever works for you.

I must have missed where the details of what he can't do were added into his character sheet. Right now, the links provided to the ripple and vampire pages seem to imply he can do everything on them. It's unnecessary to add some kind of arbitrary reduction where a power works less well in another universe when you could just lower the base power instead. I could compromise and allow the zombification.

I will admit that I made a mistake in not looking at the 'longhand' version of his powers, which I wrongfully assumed the 'shorthand' version gave a brief but complete summary of. It would be necessary to give all pertinent details about lightning mode in the sheet itself, so that opponents can read and use them.

Sorry, no, it's fine. It's still a bit jokey, and it modifies College history (though in a very minor way), but there's no problem. Go ahead and port her over.

@Lugubrious Alright, I've added a section detailing some of the uses of Lightning Mode in the sheet. Just to clarify, however, would you be against Motley developing new techniques and methods of utilising his vampirism in the future, or at least utilising techniques that aren't listed in the sheet right now?

Finding new ways to apply what he already has would be fine, but I would not be happy discovering or manifesting new abilities on the fly without some kind of outside influence.

One last thing before you're accepted: I would like you to indicate some of his weaknesses in the 'fighting style' section, specifically.

it was thought up on a whim and intended as a sort of "easter egg" kinda thing so there's not much of a way she wouldn't sound jokey
she could be like an extremely rare find cause how is one supposed to find a specific dog in a big-ass city? like a needle in a haystack except magnets don't work

That's very kind of you to say, but it looks like most people disagree with you there! Looks to me like there's going to be a climatic final round, I hope I haven't peaked already :D

For what it's worth, in my opinion you guys were pretty evenly matched this round, it was a really difficult vote.

Alright, should be good then. I'll get you started with an introductory post of Crue getting teleported into the city soon. You'll be appearing in Oldtown, matched against the Itinerant Exorcist in Actaeon's stead.

The first to three rounds won is the overall winner of the fight, with that player's third round deciding the battle. If players feel like they want to go on longer, the amount of rounds needed to win can be changed.


actually you got 2-3 rounds left

Yo boss man, sorry if this seems an obvious question, but how much in our posts do you want us to, well, leave up to you

EX:

Captain Teller opens a fridge, do I write "Within the fridge is an apple and three carrots" Or do I say "He takes what is within and moves on to do X, Y and Z"

I figure it's probably the former but I tend to ask these kinds of questions to avoid stepping on any toes.

No problem, thank you for asking such questions. In terms of everyday items like food and scrap, go ahead and decide for yourself. It's part of the freedom you have to create the world around you as a setting for your character's own personal story.
