Once upon a time a very long time ago before the war against all monsters, there was another conflict...a war between Tems and non-Tems spanning the multiverse...who won the war is the conjecture of all Tems and non-Tems still to this day...but another legend told of a Bob and a motley band of travelers whose exploits inadvertently ended the war...this is the tale of Quest...
The premise is simple, Bob gathered a group of individuals to assist him on his quest to find the (in his words) 'magical mcguffin' to bring an end to the eternal war raging across the cosmos.
Bob played by myself is not in any way their leader, because well he is a moron. So no worries if you thought I was going to railroad this cause I'm not! This will be a lighthearted, funny and hopefully successful RP.
If enough people are interested I will set up an OOC, details to come soon!
Edit: This isn't just Undertale you can make an OC, use a fandom character or whatever else. Also 18+ should (If your an Adult) take place privately.
Name(s): Sex: Age: Fandom(s): If not a fandom character just leave it blank. Appearance: Place an image in a hider, or write a description. Skills: Stuff a character has learned to do through practice or study. Powers:(Warning||Warning: If you have some overpowered bull shit power from your anime or just have a 'snap' Thanos genocide power move try to pick a slightly weaker character or power!) Place some of the powers your character can use here. Items/Equipment/Gear: Whatever your character owns, uses as a weapon, wears for protection or uses to benefit an effect from. Background: If you wanna get detailed go right ahead or keep it brief, just know I'll give Good Boi points for backgrounds that make me laugh or are well done!
Good Boi/Gurl Points: Depending on how well you make me flex my GM muscles or make me crap my pants laughing I will award you a point. They can be spent to reroll the d100 for yourself or...another player but if that happens a vote will take place if the player does not want to reroll.
Looks interesting enough. I'm seeing some random romp shenanigans potentially being here. I feel like we've crossed paths recently, so you may have some idea of my character concepts (spoiler alert: I like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure juuuuuust a little. XD). I'm kind of hunting around for a good rp to take a particular one into (with the abilities adjusted appropriately for the story of course). I'll see about popping a CS in here. it's kind of unbelievable that no-one has dropped one of their own yet, considering the overall simplicity of the CS template.
YOU THOUGHT IT WAS A BUMP, BUT IT WAS ME, THE FIRST SUBMISSION!
WWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!
Name(s): Chinami Nadakai Sex: F Age: 25 Fandom(s): Jojo's Bizarre Adventure fandom, original character Appearance:
Skills:
-Martial Arts: A black belt in Tae-Kwon-Do and not just in the sporting sense. She actually practices the Art seriously enough to use for self defense; it is one that heavily favors attacks with legs. She has also been in many life-or-death situations that have further refined her combat instincts properly. -Languages: Can speak English, Japanese and Italian fluently. -Willpower/Pain Tolerance: A staple of any local of the Jojo-verse. Frankly, they can put up with stupid amounts of damage without going into shock or otherwise becoming unable to fight. Pain is just a feeling to be ignored when victory is at stake. -Posing: You aren't from Jojo if you don't add insult to injury and style on your enemies by posing at them both before and after you beat the shit out of them. -"You may have outsmarted me, but I outsmarted your outsmarting!": Jojo characters practically live in a constant state of 5d chess when it comes to contests of intellect. Expect lots of probably stupid plans that either somehow work or lead the enemy into the an equally stupid backup plan... or potentially the backup plan to their backup plan!
Powers: She has a Stand, and everything branches from that. But in brief summary, an invisible, selectively-tangible "punch-ghost" with fantastical speed but only peak human strength and the ability to "scrape away" at things it touches, transforming them temporarily into Sakura petals under its telekinetic control.
Stand User: Chinami Nadakai Stand: Senbonzakura Power: C (peak human) Speed: A (lightspeed) Range: C (10 meters) Durability: C Precision: A (inhumanly precise in delicate tasks and using its abilities) Developmental Potential: D (the capability/likelihood of spontaneously developing new abilities or uses for current abilities) Stand Cry: Miku-Miku-Miku-Miku-Miku! Ability: A humanoid punch-ghost that appears to be a robotic pink woman with hair made of linked Sakura petals, wearing a backless cheongsam dress with large slits up the sides to ensure free motion of the legs. As a Stand, it has several abilities that are universal across all Stands: immunity to any force that isn't another Stand, invisibility to anyone that isn't another Stand User, selective tangibility (can reach inside a person and manually pump their heart), shrinking down to up to microscopic size, sharing its senses with its User, physical enhancement/shielding of User or others by overlaying itself over their body/limbs.
This Stand, in particular, is also one of the rare semi-sentient variety and is fully capable of acting independently to protect its User if they are incapacitated or otherwise unable to respond to danger in time.
[Senbonzakura]'s unique power beyond the universal ones, however, is to transform anything, organic or inorganic (including her User and herself), she touches into pink-white Sakura petals, though not all at once, only "scraping" away what she can make direct physical contact with using any part of her body. This effect is not inherently lethal, requiring a certain amount of creativity to use to do harm, as transforming half a creature's lung (for example) doesn't prevent them from using that lung. On the other hand, transforming an eye removes a creature's use of that eye for as long as it remains transformed. Additionally, she can transform a wound into petals, preventing any of the negative effects of said wound from affecting a target so long as the wounded area remains transformed.
A fully transformed creature is completely incapacitated and unable to interact with the world by any means but summoning their own Stand. [Senbonzakura] does not have to maintain physical contact with targets to keep them transformed, and objects and creatures shifted into petals remain shifted indefinitely, until the petals are destroyed, the Stand or her User decides to transform them back, or her User dies. This is all, of course, with the caveat that [Senbonzakura]'s stamina/durability is quite middling, and keeping great amounts of things transformed for long periods of time can be detrimental to the User's health, inflicting a creeping exhaustion.
Petals created by [Senbonzakura] are under the Stand's telekinetic command and are unaffected by all non-Stand effects (ie. wind, damage, force, kinetic energy, and such). Unlike most other Stand powers, however, the created petals are not invisible to the sight of non-Stand Users due to having once been other non-Stand created objects. Petals can be telekinetically moved at speeds comparable to fast, powerful winds (like a tornado's), and there is no real limit to how far away the petals can be controlled from (though the Stand and User gain no special awareness of the petals' surroundings, only their location and what each individual petal used to be). Petals can be damaged and destroyed by Stands; a destroyed petal reverts to the specific part of a given target that it once was.
Without requiring physical contact, [Senbonzakura] can return anything transformed by her into petals back to its original form at will, either in a place where one of the petals that composed a specific target is located -or in the original location it was transformed. Targets don't have to be returned to normal all at once, and can be instead partially reconstructed at the Stand's leisure.
The only thing that she cannot transform into petals is other Stands.
-Have Stand walk through a solid surface, transforming it into petals, follow through the Stand shaped hole, then revert wall to normal to prevent/hinder pursuit. -Target a person's legs/wings/etc. first for transformation in order to prevent them from running from or pursuing User. -Transform all but User's skin into petals, causing all non-Stand based attacks to become literally skin deep and possibly spoofing lie detectors and the like. -Slowly fly by carrying User on the petals, given that the petals are unaffected by the User's weight. -Suffocate a target by guiding petals down their throat and into their lungs. Use large swarms of petals as cover to sneak away or launch a hidden attack. -Effectively extend the Stand's range from the User by having the Stand carry around a single petal made of part of their User (much like Giorno tore off his own arm to extend his range against Bruno in Part 5).
Items/Equipment/Gear:
-Leather Jacket -2010's touchscreen cell phone (wifi/photos/videos capable, though cell service may be an issue). -Phone charging cord -Wired earbuds -Small silver lighter
Background:
Once upon a time, there was a girl with a real set of priorities, wanted a quiet productive civilian life...
Then she got stabbed by a weird arrow, and suddenly everything was going insane. No peace. No quiet. Bizarrely-dressed people seemed to ooze out of the woodwork every other week.
Through a long series of convoluted events she helps a bunch of fabulously-dressed gents and lady take over the Italian underworld, becomes one of the new Godfather's right hands and finally achieves a fairly peaceful life in a strangely honorable mob. She goes on vacation to Florida a decade later, because absolutely nothing could go wrong to compromise her quiet life, only to run into a literal end of the world plot.
Funny thing really. Turns out, there's this probably gay priest that totes wants this probably bisexual vampire (ah, yes, priestxvampire, a tale as old as time) in order to reach HEAVEN, but said vampy-boy is deader than a doornail and reaching HEAVEN involves sorta-kinda using a prison, mass murder and a green baby to end the world and restart from scratch? Space-time shenanigans are weird. Enter Chinami, who helps screw over said HEAVEN plan mid universal reset, and suddenly, well, would you look at that? The fabric of space-time does indeed appear to be disintegrating! Suddenly, our intrepid heroine(?) is stuck with this "Bob" guy and several other poor souls, and things are somehow even more bizarre than they were back home.
"Oh boy, here I go beating up weird people with my punch-ghost again."
Lmao, I dunno. Maybe I'll edit the background later, or maybe it's good as is.
@Dark Cloud Well, quite frankly, the fact that you're still willing to bump it after a year of relative nothingness shows a certain level of dedication that I'm willing to be a part of. This just seems like something you really want to do, and even though the mechanics of play are a tad unclear, I'm up for giving this concept a shot.
@Dark Cloud I will admit, it took me a couple read-throughs to fully comprehend the point/@ system, but I honestly think it's fairly interesting one that's thematic to the tone of what this seems to want to be. Though, yes the @ mechanic might want to go for the most part. Despite the tone of the story, it feels like that might potentially breed resentment between players if there was a group vote, instead of just letting a given player simply refuse rerolls themselves... for potentially better or worse.
I'll admit that the only problem I can see with the dice is a potential lack of transparency, since this site doesn't seem to have a dice rolling mechanic (or it might, but I'm relatively new around here). Otherwise, meh. The story's intended tone makes me inclined to believe all the rolls will be genuine and not fudged.
Lmao, I'm an uncultured peasant and had to look up Dale Gribble, but I recognized him the second I saw him! XD
Damn, so quiet in here. @Dark Cloud Honestly, I'd say if you want to hook more people, might want to update the original post to reflect whatever changes you're going to makes to the rules. If you clearly lay out the game system (ie. d100 and such) and maybe expand on the premise a bit, I can see this grabbing some more interest. I'm pretty sure the lack of information to start is meant to be part of the fun, but the unclarity/lack of knowing what they're getting into on the mechanical end of the spectrum is probably turning a lot of people off. It's kind of like it has quest elements but not quite while also being a text RP, but also not quite, since efforts might be based on a d100, regardless of character abilities? That's just where my thoughts have gone.
