I personally think it's he can conjure it up from nowhere - but it's must easier on him, and the earth itself tbh, if he does it with a power source? Is that good or?
Alright, that seems fine. Accepted

A little sneak peak at one of the next characters Im working on. Still a WIP though, should be finished by tomorrow.
Name:"Gojira" | "Godzilla"
Appearance:As a human avatar, Godzilla stands at an impressive 6'8" (2.03 meters) and weighs a whopping 224 lbs (101.60 kg).
In his kaiju form, Gojira has two different sizes he can morph into. He can become his "Macro Form", where he's 25 feet (7.62 meters) tall, or grow to his maximum size of 393 feet (119.7 meters) tall and weigh up to nearly 100,000 tons.

- Tail Whip:
- Transformation:
Weapons & Equipment:N/A
Alignment:Neutral Good
Other:"This incarnation represents Godzilla based on his description in the Monsterverse series, however he will also gain bits and pieces of each powers or abilities from each official incarnation in someway through upgrades. The goal is to make the ultimate Godzilla that embodies what he truly represents as not only a giant kickass kaiju, but THE giant kickass kaiju."
EDIT: Dang, y'know what would be really cool is if someone else joined as Gipsy Danger/Mako Mori and Raleigh Becket (main characters of Pacific Rim, for those not familiar). Then we could ACTUALLY have the fight in the 3rd picture in the OP, lol
@tipssyCalibrator Aaaaand he's done!
<Snipped quote by tipssyCalibrator>
Probably would look something more like this lol:
<Snipped quote by Lmpkio>
Wow, that's a much better picture than the one I found. Wish I could've found that when making the OP :S
<Snipped quote by tipssyCalibrator>
When you're a "Kaiju Expert/Obsessionist" such as I, you will find aaaaaall sorts of godly art.
Btw, is he good or do you have any concerns outside of those that I've mentioned?
<Snipped quote by Lmpkio>
Oh wow I didn't notice your edit
Outside of the general question of "how will regular sized characters fight him", I can't see anything wrong with it. I trust you know what you're doing and can figure out how to handle the size issue, yeah?
<Snipped quote by tipssyCalibrator>
I did mention how the size will be according to whatever the plot demands. If it's against a few regular humanized-opponents, then he will fight in his human form. If he's facing an army of baddies or a significantly powerful opponent, he can go into Macro. And if he's fighting other giant monsters and/or robots, he will go into his giant kaiju form. I'll probably give an excuse in IC as to why he can't cheat the system but alas I got this under control.
Name: Stephanie Edgley AKA Valkyrie Cain
Appearance:
Series of origin: Skulduggery Pleasant - Book Series
Personality: Valkyrie is very stubborn, often ignoring orders or suggestions if she thinks her way is right. She has grown to be very mature and independent because of the time she spent alongside Skulduggery. Valkyrie can be witty and sarcastic a lot of the time, two traits she also picked up on from Skulduggery. Her loyalty and care for those she considers friends is something she values highly.
Abilities: After Valkyrie experienced The Surge, she was unable to use any magic she had previously learned. Instead, she gained a new ability to manipulate energy to create white lighting, create blasts of energy, and even make an energy shield around herself. This unique power that she has developed is called Ergokinesis or more commonly, Energy Throwing.
Being taught by both Tanith Low and Skulduggery Pleasant, Valkyrie is adept at hand-to-hand combat. She is proficient in multiple different styles such as Kenpo Karate, Muay Thai, Krav Maga and Capoeira. Her preferred style of fighting is more straightforward with punches, kicks, elbows, headbutts, and occasionally some grapples.
Weapons and equipment: N/A
Character alignment: Neutral
Other: This depiction of Valkyrie is based on her after the events of “The Dying of the Light” but before “Resurrection” and as such, she has only recently got her Energy Throwing magic and still has much to learn about it.
@tipssyCalibrator I might be missing it in the OP somewhere, but what is the potential end goal for the RP? Will you tell us in the opening post, or?
Okay, here he is. I am down for nerfing him, I do want him to Bite the Dust. But I think even at his high power level, he could be defeated by the characters already present. You mentioned Thanos level villain powers in the OP so I thought I would give that a go with one of if not my number one favorite villain of all time. And I want somebody to shut him up, hopefully by blowing him into little tiny pieces, or whatever doom he has in store for him that he 110% deserves.
I will be leaving for college in a few minutes here, but I'll be back online later today.Name: Dio "DIO" Brando
Appearance:
Series of origin: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 3: Stardust Crusaders
Personality: DIO is a narcissistic, sadistic, pure evil egomaniac. Granted the gifts of a god complex and insanity after spending one hundred years in the bottom of the ocean, DIO exists to conquer the world and those who live in it. He truly believes that he is the ultimate life form and that he should rule simply because all others are inferior to him. He extracts joy from hurting and killing others. When not cackling maniacally, he is a charismatic leader, a wicked savior who manipulate the down-trodden into joining his nefarious cause, promising them power and wealth. He is sauve, sensual, and a bizarre sense of dry humor during the rare moments when he has his guard down. Personal connections are rare, if not non-existant for him. Only a select few people see DIO as little more than their dark lord, or an evil bastard who needs to be put down. He is unbelievably arrogant and will toy with those he believes to be beneath him. Despite how lowly the vermin around him seem to be, he also wants to be loved, feared, and respected by them.
Abilities:In the late 19th Century, a young man named Dio Brando, determined to gain the riches that eluded his father, dons an ancient stone mask that turns him into a blood-sucking vampire. The powers granted to him are as follows;
1. Regeneration
It is nearly impossible to kill DIO with direct physical violence. Limbs severed can be re-attatched, or even commanded to move on their own. Holes, no matter how massive, can be reformed. Once a limb is severed though, it can only be reattatched, not reformed. His weak point is the brain, but even that is difficult to destroy. Only with complete annihilation of the head can DIO be rendered immobile. Nothing else will suffice. The other way to prevent regeneration is sunlight. Whether direct, natural sunlight, or simulated sunlight like UV rays, or sunlight derived from magic. Fire is also somewhat effective, slowing his regeneration powers. He is capable of being incinerated, but the final blow must be applied with sunlight. Death by sunlight is not instantaneous, but it is very fast, and is paralyzing in it's agony. Only when attacked by sunlight or it's derivatives can DIO feel pain. Wounds from conventional weaponry are of no concern to the vampire.
His regeneration powers are powerful, but they do have limits. DIO needs blood in order to regenerate. He can use his own blood, but that tends to run out quickly when severed limbs are involved. So he must take the blood of humans in order to fully regenerate.
2. Super strength
DIO has super strength, able to punch clean through concrete with ease. Weights of up to 50 tons are of no object.
3. Levitation
DIO can levitate from a standing position, and rise in elevation up to ten or so feet from where he launched up. He must come down after a couple of minutes. He cannot use it to cancel momentum already built up. Any contact from outside forces forces him to land.
4. Body Control
DIO has total control over every element of his body. He is ageless. His hair follicles can stretch and harden to become lethal wires, and so can the very veins that make up his body. He can cancel the bloodflow in his arms and use his vampiric bloodflow to make any part of his body freezing cold, enough to deal serious damage to anyone who touches him. He can concentrate blood through his pupils to fire lazers capable of burning through stone, but is blind while doing so.
5. Undead Plague
DIO can resurrect the dead. When they are resummoned they become under his control. He can inject his blood into people like a poison. As long as he has a fresh supply of blood he can create as many minions as he wants. A normal infected human is slightly stronger, and gain limited forms of body control. The more powerful a minion was when they were alive, the more powerful they are when they are a zombie. People who follow DIO willingly into undead servitude retain all of their powers when they were alive, plus the abilities of being a vampire, though they won't know how to use them.
Stands are the physical manifestation of the soul and of one's fighting spirit. In many ways, they are the truest form of any give individual, their willpower made manifest. There are a few ways to manifest a Stand. One can be simply born a Stand User, and have one from a young age or one that only manifests as they grow older. One can manifest a Stand by simply being of high enough willpower or skill that the Stand appears. Or, there are certain objects of power within the world that grant people a Stand, if they can survive the process. DIO acquired his Stand sometime during his stay at the bottom of the ocean, stewing in his own hatred and narcissism until it manifested. Only those with a Stand can see a Stand. Every Stand is unique and has their own power, varying in strength from detrimental to insanely powerful. DIO's Stand, which he named The World, is one of the most if not the most powerful in existance. Any damage taken by a Stand is reflected onto the user. Stands can pass through solid objects given their ghostly form, and also float in mid air. Generally Stands can only move a small distance from their user, and most users cannot see through the eyes of their Stand.
All Stands manifest a personality of their own, but most of the time it is an exact copy of the User's with some slight variations. In DIO's case, The World is an entity who derives pleasure from hurting others and wants to conquer all. The only difference is, it keeps it's mouth shut and doesn't talk unless DIO tells it too. Most Stands behave this way, and are bound to their users. DIO and The World share the exact same goals and they are the same entity with the same thoughts and beliefs, which is the most common form of a Stand's personality to take.
1. Stop Time
DIO can use his stand to stop time. Within the stopped time, he can effect and is effected by the environment when in stopped time. For example, if he throws an object, depending on how hard he threw it, it will travel for a short distance before coming to a stop. DIO's stopped time grants him five seconds of movement. Seconds is a strange way of thinking about it. But moving within stopped time is mentally taxing, and after five seconds of actions time resumes. Potentially DIO could stop time for hours if he didn't move or do anything, but only five seconds of actual actions such as walking and punching are available to him. Anything in the environment can still harm him, for example, if he stopped time while standing in the sun, he would still burn to death. Stop Time also has a recharge time. He can stop time every 25 seconds or so. The more he uses Stop Time, the more fragile his Stand becomes until it can be shattered in a single punch.
2. Super Strength and Speed
The World can punch very fast, and can move fast enough to catch and deflect bullets in mid air. It's strength mirrors DIO's own. The World can move independantly of DIO within a range of 10 meters.
3. Durability
The World can withstand a signficant amount of punishment, but it is more brittle than DIO. When the World sustains damage, so does DIO. DIO can actually withstand more damage than the World, which is only because of his vampiric powers. So while the World is more durable than most Stands, it is actually DIO's weak point. The only way to damage a Stand is with a Stand of one's own, though, as they can choose to become immaterial, or only make certain parts of their body intangible.
Weapons and equipment: Many knives. He has like, 50 knives. I don't know why.
Character alignment: Neutral Evil. While he thrives in chaos, his ultimate goal is domination, and the achievement of ultimate power. His thirst for power and blood is never ending.
Other: This is DIO during the events of Stardust Crusaders. His arch enemies haven't quite made it to where he lives yet, but are still on the way to destroy him. DIO is a very powerful villain, but I am joining this RP with the intention of him getting his ass kicked So while I would like his defeat to be well earned, I do want it to happen. I think there are plenty of ways to defeat him, especially with the entire body of human fiction to draw upon. I am going to collaborate on this front with whoever crosses paths with him. In some ways he is a Thanos level villain. In other ways, he can't go outside without dying for 12 hours of the day.
@tipssyCalibratorThe resurrection wasn't really anything I planned on using too much. Like, ideally, DIO won't kill anyone at all. He'll only use it to create zombie minions if he comes across innocent bysanders to kill. Or if any evil PC's want to join DIO's team they can, I guess.
As for the time stop, I am really considering how the other players feel here. If a PC vs PC fight happens I'm not just gonna have DIO up and smash people's heads in like a cheesy loser. Especially since things can go wrong with that, like getting cut in half by a lightsaber or thrown around by force powers. Like a force barrier for example would still be up even in stopped time. I'll also try to be as clear as possible in my descriptions of what happens within time stop, and also, what the people who cannot stop time would see. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm not going to power game, I didn't pick DIO because he could potentially just use time stop and kill people. I like DIO because of his personality and him shouting ZA WARUDO, or using his Time Stop to like, move people to the bottom of staircases. I just want you to know that if you do end up accepting DIO, I'm not gonna use him to ruin other people's fun. The end goal is for someone to kick his ass and throw him into the sunlight.
I assumed other people can't see The World, but we could change that. I guess to other people it would just be the power to use telekinetic blasts on one person at a time.
