[OOC] Stand Proud - Pleasant Valley Sunday

[SwordfishKnight]

<Snipped quote by SwordfishKnight>

Oh wow, that sucks. Any chance you might be able to recover it, or were you typing it up on Notepad/the Guild itself?

@Fish of Oblivion

I was typing it up on Guild itself. I should have definitely saved it on word or something, but I was an idiot and did not indeed do that.

since it'll take a little longer to get up I'll go ahead and say my guy is Iron Maiden inspired and his stand is Aces High.

@SwordfishKnight

Niiice, after my own heart. I used Iron Maiden as a stand in a tabletop once.

[Fish of Oblivion]

Oh, and speaking of, almost done with my sheet. Jenno, mind if I PM you what I have so far before I iron it out and shove it up here?

@Captain Jenno

Are you saying there's a Jojo tabletop!?

[Captain Jenno]

It's a home brew, but certainly! And if this particular group develops a nice rapport I wouldn't be averse to running a few games sometime, either.

[Captain Jenno]

@Fish of Oblivion

Be my guest!

[Card Captor]

A Jojo tabletop...that sounds too amazing for this sinful earth.

[SwordfishKnight]

I've managed to redo half now. Almost there! Bruce Harris enters the scene!

Florence and Life on Mars

「STAND USER」


Name: Florence Squire

Age: 18

Appearance:
Florence is a reasonably tall girl at roughly 5'10", with blue eyes and medium-length red hair usually kept in a ponytail; it'd be hard to call her 'slender', but she's fairly lean and keeps herself in fairly athletic shape besides. Her dress code is unisex, though she generally goes for less feminine clothing outside of special occasions on account of formality; most of the time, she's wearing jeans with a jacket over a short-sleeved t-shirt. When moving around at night or during cold days, she wears a well-worn black overcoat.

Personality Summary:
To external appearances, Florence seems a perfectly ordinary young woman, if a little on the reserved side. Compared to many of the other members of the 'Stand Community', she's something of a bastion of normality; one of the few sane and normal individuals amongst a disconnected gaggle of weirdos, psychopaths and tryhards. Her personality is a mixture of the everyday; cynical yet essentially good-natured, somewhat sardonic and yet welcoming, firm yet friendly.

The truth, however, is that she fits better into the Stand Community than it may seem. Her behaviour, whilst not entirely disingenuous, masks a rather ruthless true nature formed by difficult formative years; more than willing to take morally questionable actions and twist the truth for the sake of her own benefit. It remains a stretch to call her malicious; besides the fact that she very rarely acts on her true nature without provocation or reason, she's as willing to act on it for the sake of loved ones and the non-stand community in Pleasant Valley as she is for her own sake. But the fact remains that she is far more twisted and cunning than she presents herself most of the time.

At her core, Florence is a ruthless and driven young woman who wants to live a quiet, orderly life and is willing to bring hell down on those who threaten that. Whilst she doesn't outright resent the abnormal and unusual, she prefers to keep it at arm's length in favour of a normal existance.

Short Biography:
Florence's life before she came to Pleasant Valley was a fairly difficult one; her parents divorced at an early age, her mother gaining custody of her and not having a whole lot to do with her ex-husband outside of the occasional visit and child support. It wasn't a life filled with tragedy, but it wasn't entirely the most functional one; besides the shaky financial situation they were in, her mother was estranged from her family and often acted strangely, seemingly talking to herself. Because of this, Florence became relatively self-sufficient at an early age.

However, around the beginning of her last year in elementary school, her mother contracted pneumonia, later dying due to complications after she wasn't able to obtain medical attention quickly enough. As of this, she went to live with her father, who had fallen on difficult times and taken up alcohol, in another city; and it was around this time that the stress and grief of her situation caused mysterious phenomena to manifest around her. Eventually, her father decided it would be best to move out of the city; besides his own problems, it was clear that Florence wasn't happy there, and Florence almost being injured or worse in a major accident at the time helped to twist his arm in the matter, convincing him to head for a safer environment. Unbeknownst to him, Florence hadn't been in any real physical danger; whilst he'd have no way of knowing, by this point she had a strange being guarding her, a strange being in a spacesuit that only she could see.

So they ended up moving to Pleasant Valley; her mother's family had come from Pleasant Valley originally, and whilst she'd been estranged from her parents, her younger brother, similarly distanced from them, reached out to Florence and her father after his parents passed on, contacting them shortly after the accident and offering to temporarily support the two financially if they moved to Pleasant Valley. So shortly before she began her first year of middle school, they packed their bags and left for the coastal town. Things changed much for the better; her father was finally able to get his life together in their new home, and the town was a far less intense environment than what she'd been subjected to before. On top of that, she was better able to understand the situation she was in with her strange astronaut friend; she saw similar beings around the city, and it wasn't long until it emerged that they had a name- Stands.

She's changed a fair bit between then and now; whilst there were bumps along the way and she's still somewhat reserved, she's definitely come out of her emotional shell, and now that she's started her final year in High School, she seems to be working hard for the future. Whilst awareness of the dangerous nature of Stands has lead her to keep a small distance between herself and the rest of the Stand Community over the years, practicing privately and doing her best to keep her Stand on a tight leash, the recent incidents and the threat they represent have convinced her to at least seek out the Boomtown Rats. After all, if a maniac with a Stand is running around, there's no shortage of danger to anyone in Pleasant Valley, Stand User or otherwise.

Dark Secret: She's actually a 「SPOOKY SCARY SKELETON」!

「STAND」

Name: Life on Mars

Description of Appearance:
Life on Mars is a humanoid stand, somewhere around 6'3" and chiefly resembling an astronaut in a spacesuit with a dark red body. The secondary colour of the Stand is blue, comprising the specific structures and details appropriate of a spacesuit, as well as the sun visor. The sun visor itself has a pair of burning red eyes visible from behind the blue, as well as a red Mars Symbol carved in-between them. The final detail is a blue cap on top of it's red helmet, resembling one that a ship's captain would wear.

Stand Ability:
Life on Mars has the ability to control gravity within a ten-meter radius of itself. Rather than a passive ability, it is activated and de-activated at will; the default setting for the gravity within that radius upon initial activation is just over a third of Earth's regular gravity, roughly equal to the gravity on Mars. The specific range of the ability allows it to adjust gravity to anywhere between Earth's value and a value of zero; with enemies and their Stands becoming subject to Earth's gravity again the moment they leave the area of effect. A secondary ability of Life on Mars is to automatically adapt to the gravitational changes; whilst enemies and their Stands may become disorientated or have their functions interrupted, Life on Mars will automatically adapt to the changed gravity. This is a mere adapation of strategy, however, as Life on Mars is still subject to the effects of its own changes, just capable of fighting and moving in them as naturally as it would in its preferred settings.

Whilst not completely sapient in its own right, and unable to talk like some stands are, Life on Mars does express a reasonable measure of independent thought from Florence; specifically, it conducts itself in an extraordinarly savage manner in battle, but acts a lot like a curious child otherwise, often picking things up and carrying them around with it for no real reason and being somewhat possessive of Florence. It also gets bored easily unless its user keeps it reigned in, which often leads to trouble.

Stats:
Destructive Power- A
Speed- B
Range- C
Durability- B
