[OOC] Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Chronos Curse! (NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPS)

[Sublimation]

Mighit change my stand, because I'm realizing it's basically a bad version of Cream.

[The book of bad juju]

Don't worry too much about it. After thirty years, people end up making a lot of similar stands just because it's so hard to create something original. Even Araki himself slips up, look at The Emperor and Sex Pistols. Oh, and by they way, if there's anyone browsing this thread and wondering what kind of series Jojo is, here's a quick reminder.

Hider

Name: Lavalley Rivald Age: 24 Gender: Male Appearance: Stand Name: Roundabout

Hider

Stand Ability: Out ‘n’ Out Roundabout’s only ability is that of a supreme defense. Upon activation of this ability, Roundabout changes its ghostly blue shade into an ominous purple one before rapidly expanding its form for around a second, becoming an orb of ghastly flames around a meter wide in diameter. When Roundabout enters this form, it is vulnerable without a hint of durability to protect it. Within its body in this state, space is warped and stretched, eventually collapsing into a complete void after around five seconds. Lavalley is then able to jump inside this one meter sphere of absolute darkness, whereupon his form appears to distort and shrink before funneling into the patch of darkness. Lavalley is transported to a separate dimension where he can see from the perspective of the orb in completely circular vision, but is unable to use his other senses. An object that is shot into the orb of warped space will be transported directly to Lavalley, which would make this stand ability rather useless if it simply made Lavalley a helpless target. The true defense of Out ‘n’ Out is its ability to generate a multitude of fields of gravitational energy around itself that acts as localized orbits. The orbits encompass a ten meter diameter around the orb.

Hider

All of the orbits spiral towards the orb itself but never reach it, instead curving around it outwards. Thus any object that is projected at the orb will be caught in the extremely powerful gravitational force of the orb and redirected in the exact same direction it came from. The closer one gets to the orb, the stronger the gravitational forces become. The more force an object has that is directed at the orb, the closer it travels to the orb by resisting more gravitational force. However, the closer the object gets, the stronger the gravitational force and therefore the faster the object is redirected. The gravitational fields right next to the orb are ludicrously powerful, easily capable of heavily pressuring space much like how The Hand does, making direct confrontation with fists a foolish maneuver. It is worth noting that the orbits are all perfectly interconnected, spiraling in symmetry towards the orb and curving out and out in symmetry also. It is possible to break through the defense by throwing an object in the exact same curving trajectory as the orbits, “riding” the orbits so to speak and abusing the constantly increasing power of the orbits to break through and strike the orb. In this state, Lavalley can direct Roundabout to move. However, Roundabout can only take linear paths and moves incredibly sluggishly. In this manner, Roundabout can enhance its defense even further by picking up objects with its orbits which act like vacuums. Since stationary objects don’t have the force to reach the inner layers of Roundabout’s orbits to be broken down or destroyed, they will instead start orbiting Roundabout. However this also serves as a weakness as the more objects that Roundabout picks up, the less Lavalley can see through Roundabout’s “eyes”. Lavalley can order Rounadbout to increase its gravitational pressure on its orbits to draw in objects enough to throw them at targets, but doing so heavily drains energy. Lavalley is unable to leave Roundabout until the orbits are removed. Weapon: No need for weapons when you have defense. Personality:Lavalley is a stern and austere man, embracing the gravity of life with all its fortunes and misfortunes with undiscriminating acceptance. He takes little stock in levity or banter, instead placing faith in the unchanging and mundane. He faces reality casually, letting events pass by him without disturbing him. Many seek an escape from reality to gain happiness, but to Lavalley, reality itself has plenty of escapes within its boundaries to prosper in. One could say that he lives his life fully in this regard. In consequence, Lavalley sees his world as it is, without any sentimental flair to brighten it or gloomy black to darken it. Such a passive view gives Lavalley a stoic character, but it is with such passivity that Lavalley can act rationally and fruitfully. Analytic and observant, Lavalley seizes opportunities by their throat and clenches with all his might. Of course, opportunities to Lavalley are beggars among emotions but tycoons among pragmatic values. Yet Lavalley is not entirely geared towards such a gray consideration of his world, and possesses a surprisingly empathetic nature that he has not utilized. In addition, he upholds a distinct noble bearing much like the JoJo family, and is able to discern the characters of people much like how Speedwagon was able to. Despite Lavalley's logical and practical nature, he is prone to feeling nervous shock or surprise when events do not go the way he predicts or as logic would ordain. Lavalley also has a habit of narrating important things that go on as they happen. Bio: Lavalley was a close subordinate of Robert E.O. Speedwagon in his foundation, working as a medical researcher in the foundation's supernatural division. What is courage?: “To Become One With Fear Itself” StatsDestructive Power: E (Defense yo.) Speed: E (Moves slow but defense yo) Range: D (10 meters is D I think) Durability: A (Defense yo) Precision: C

Alright made my character.

@Sublimation

Sublimation, im going to assume you mean a subordinate of the speedwagon foundation and not speedwagon himself? Since this is in 2015 XD if so, accepted Devoureroflove, you are also accepted. 6 players so far... hmm... thinking I should probably cap the amount of players to about 7 or 8 XD

[DevourerofLove]

Can I reserve one of those for a close friend of mine? I don't like doing stuff with other people without him. He's been considering a character, not sure how far he is on that, though.

[The_written_John]

Sure thing! So long as he gets it up before 1 week.

[The_written_John]

You didn't read the rules Leeroy and along with that, you posted your app into the characters tab first without having it be authenticated in the OOC chat, i'm going to have to deny your application.

[Musoka]

I am so down for a Jojo RP!

[LeeRoy]

Name: Alexander Beck Brighton "Mister Sunshine" Age: 36 Gender: Male Appearance: Alexander Brighton is in the prime of his life, and blessed with a family lineage that lead to him being the thoroughbread of humans. A square jaw, soft curly hair as brown as chocolate, built like a house too. Alex here's shoulders are more square than Steve Urkel, he's as fit as a fiddle with a bodybuilder's complexion. Alexander's eyes are soft, showing kindness and glittering more brightly than should be possible. His irises are as brown as his hair. To some, his eyelashes are effeminate, but they're long and thick. Constantly looking as though he's put makeup through them. There is a deep cleft in his chin, and his cheeks have perfectly even dimples. There are no blemishes on his skin, anywhere. Alexander's hair is kept neat and tidy, with a maximum length of three inches at any point in time. As well, he is blessed with remarkable facial hair. Not a beard, but a magnificent moustache. Thick and wide, stretching over his lip and connecting to his sideburns to form a Muttonstache. Everywhere else on his body is cleanly shaven, waxed actually, he maintains this smooth skin with daily shaving. Everywhere. Everywhere. Stand name: Body Breakdown (Called BeeBee for short.) Stand ability: Cry Thunder: Though Body Breakdown isn't a humanoid stand, it is a pure combat stand. From the central orbital arms of arcing electricity shoot out and grab hold of any conductive materials nearby, including the ground. If any metal objects are nearby, BeeBee will grab ahold of them and swing them around like the blade of a fan. All additional objects just add mass to the spinning top of death that is Cry thunder. As well, Cry thunder can be moved around independently of the materials it picks up. As a ball of electricity it has no solid form, and is therefore an indestructable stand. (Much like The Fool and Geb.) It can freely pass through objects, but does not give Alexander vision of its position. It disallows him from blindly attacking with accuracy. Stand appearance: BeeBee is a ball of lightning that flies, that's pretty much it. Though as its electricity grows in intensity it sometimes flickers into the shape of a face. Weapon: Being Remarkably Strong: Alex is an Olympic strongman by trade, that's not a joke. He's a two time olympic silver medal holder. Personality: Here's where it gets a bit tricky. Mr. Sunshine is, well, a bright and cheery guy. There is absolutely nothing that will make him sad, as though he lacks the ability to feel any emotion besides happiness. At face value he's a great guy, the heroic sort of course. Donning armor and raising the flag of his cause, and never faltering in his good morals. And that's where the normalcy ends. Mr. Sunshine, as most come to call him, is nor quite your average hero. No. Mr. Sunshine has no concept of personal space. Mr. Sunshine has no concept of how eerie it is to stare at people. Mr. Sunshine has no concept of just how suspicious it is to never stop smiling. Stats: Destructive power: B Speed: E Range: B Durability: A Precision: E What is courage?: Courage is to stand in the road when the world tells you to move, look the world in the eyes and say: "No. Go around."

My answer is better.

To become one with fear itself

[The_written_John]

Accepted in any anycase.

[Sublimation]

Gonna switch my stand to something more thematically fitting. As well as something uses the setting much better.

[DevourerofLove]

My answer is better.

@LeeRoy

I still think mine's the best XD (Surprised nobody got the reference. But then again it was paraphrased, and that show was pretty obscure)

[DevourerofLove]

Appearance:

@Musoka

I already made a character with an eye-patch. Just so you know.

[Musoka]

They can be eyepatch friends. He doesn't actually wear that eyepatch, it's just the closest thing to what I wanted.

[The_written_John]

Musoka can you please lower your amount of abilities down? Having that many stand powers while small is still overpowering... If you could reduce it to about 3 abilities, think you could do that?

[Musoka]

Not really. That stand was built around the seven sins. I could make a different stand if necessary? ----Edit---- I have changed the stand.
