[OOC] World of Light

[Potemking]

@Dark Cloud
Frog would be exactly how he was when he was four years old, with clothing to match, and none of his abilities or items.

So he'd be human again, actually.

Edit: Mentally he's the same though

[Dark Cloud]

@Potemking Okay now I'm excited because this rewind is a blessing in disguise for Glenn, the curse would never happen

[Dark Cloud]

Post is done, good night everyone.

[Dark Cloud]

Is everyone still little?

[Lugubrious]

Yes. I would recommend reading the IC to catch up and get an idea of what's up with everyone.

[Dark Cloud]

Will do.

[Dark Cloud]

I'm open to the idea of a collab if anyone wants to, seems appropriate from what I understand so far.

[Lugubrious]

Actually, right now I don't think either of your characters are in a position where a collab is necessary. I'd say you're good to go on either front and get your guys up to speed with their respective groups.

[Dark Cloud]

Post ETA tomorrow around noonish or early evening in the Vancouver time zone

[Dark Cloud]

Laharl post done, I'll be back to post for Frog later this evening or tomorrow at the latest.

[Dark Cloud]

Dropping a post now, and just a reminder Laharl is off exploring the city. I really want to make that clear @Lugubrious

EDIT: I should have probably @ you in my post now that I think about it.

@Dark Cloud

Oh, I thought he was in a spot where he could get dragged into the conflict. Does that mean you want me to create a special scenario for him? Normally I'd like groups to stay together where possible.

[Dark Cloud]

@Lugubrious I would like a special scenario if that's alright, next time I'll ask ahead of time sorry for the lack of communication on my part.

[Potemking]

Damn, I guess that means no Laharl/Mao fight. RIP

[Lugubrious]

I was curious if they'd know one another. Admittedly I don't know if their series is contiguous or anything.

[Dark Cloud]

@Lugubrious It technically is, I think (don't quote me on this) the Overlords know of King Kriechevskoy as he was the ruler of all the Netherworlds until his death which plunged the world into chaos whilst various lords raceed to seize the vacant throne. This inadvertently caused the previously set hierarchy to collapse on itself.

[Potemking]

@Lugubrious

Disgaea Netherworlds are pretty much a multiverse of their own. Each game is canon, but really has no effect on the next aside from the latest entries always allowing you to recruit the old casts in the post-game stories. So Mao defeats and recruits Laharl in Disgaea 3, and then Laharl pretty much does the same to him in another game.

Essentially what happens in Disgaea 3 is that Laharl comes in pretending to be Mao's true father (Despite their similar age) So he can be more relevant in the game. This escalates quickly to Laharl trying to pummel Mao for the main character spot instead, but I'm not quite sure if post-game stuff is canon or not so it's up in the air if they know each other. Regardless, they'd easily be able to tell that they're both Overlords, there's just a bit of a sixth sense about that in Disgaea. So overall it'd be a fun interaction, I think.

@Dark Cloud

Laharl's father was simply the king of his Netherworld, not many of them.

[Dark Cloud]

@Potemking I always forget that there are like a bajillion Netherworlds.

[Gentlemanvaultboy]

There's another scenario where Laharl actually ends up joining the party. He shows up claiming to actually be over six feet tall and that Mao is the legendary Overlord that stole his height from him. They beat the crap out of one another until Mao's friend convinces them that neither are the legendary Overlord the other is looking to beat.

This is mutually exclusive with the other one of course, but that's just how Disgaea rolls sometimes.

[Dark Cloud]

@Gentlemanvaultboy true dat be, guess it's just Nippon Ichi Software being Nippon Ichi Software
