[OOC] Winds of Change: A Re:Creators-Inspired Multiverse RP

[cool beaner]

@PKMNB0Y

Do we still keep the "Stands are spiritual things" assumption, though?

[PKMNB0Y]

@cool beaner: Well, yeah. Stands can be impacted by anything not fully physical in nature.
So things like magic swords work. Magic too. Just not normal punchy punchy, I guess.

Careful about anything involving manipulating time. Or Gold Experience Requiem. Giorno's too OP with that to go untouched.
(Pucci too. Ugh, Pucci.)

@PKMNB0Y
Would this guy work out fine?

SPOILERS

I mean, he did kill Rohan, but he was able to do so without much brute force. He did it using strategic prowess and some newly-polished plot armor. Besides, he may be a monster when it comes to close-range combat, but his ranged attack is so sluggish that some guy had the time to wake up from a coma and rush outside to stop his impending attack. Someone like Nanoha or one of those Touhou characters would easily curbstomp him, given that the battle is on-the-spot.

Besides, I'll be using Kira before he switched faces. Kosaku-Kira is the one with Stray Cat (allows him to manipulate air via some sort of cat-plant hybrid hidden within his suit) and Bites the Dust (allows him to toy around with time loops - nobody would like to deal with that).

He just wants a peaceful life. Just make sure everyone else sleeps with the lights on.

[PKMNB0Y]

@cool beaner: Unmarked spoilers, bruh. There's people here who still wanna watch DiU lol.

And, uh... I mean, even with only Sheer Heart Attack it's only a matter of time before people fish him out. Remember, this is the modern era, and a lot of people have watching DiU. He's never going to be able to have a quiet life in the first place.

Which is... Problematic in it's own right.

[cool beaner]

@PKMNB0Y

Let's just say that his signature costume gets trashed during his transport to the real world and due to that, people assume that he's actually David Bowie.

EDIT: Besides, I've watched Re:Creators before (i'm a big fan of it!) and from what I have seen, characters can exit their respective works of fiction at any period of time as long as there's some sort of interference. He could get pulled out at the period of time wherein his suit got thrashed by Josuke and friends, and if that happened, people might really assume that he's David Bowie.

It sounds ridiculous, but ridiculous happenings are my thing.

[Raineh Daze]

Aside from David Bowie being, you know.

Dead.

[cool beaner]

@Raineh Daze
So yeah, armored dudes are duking it out in a modern landscape. Wouldn't this be the best time for a respected musical icon to somehow come back to life supposedly with the aid of some floating anthropomorphic cat ghost?

[PKMNB0Y]

@cool beaner: Also, don't forget that the RP doesn't run on the same rules as Re:Creators does. Similar, but not the same.

In any case, I don't think Kira will work, if only by dint of "surveillance cameras, drones, and mass public panic" being a thing. Also because by the very nature of the character he'll try to stay out of the way, which means not much RPing for you unless you wanna go offing some rando on the streets.

[cool beaner]

@PKMNB0Y
Alright, Kira's down for the count. I would find it necessary to apologize to everyone on this thread for being persistent. I got a little bit too excited to work with Stands.

I also used a hider to cover up the spoilers I added on my earlier post. Sorry about that.

[Rockin Strings]

@PKMNB0Y I was looking for that detail as to why instead of just "no because I'm in charge" like I've gotten from most other GMs.

Now that I understand your reasoning of why you're saying no, I can choose other characters.

Yoshitsune is a feudal ronin who begins working with the Genji clan to collect mystical stones known as the amahagane. I can find some videos for you. I can explain his abilities a lot better in his CS.

For my second character, I was thinking Raziel from the Soul Reaver games. I'll pull my old CS for him from Project: Crossover.

My third character, Rick O'Connell from the Mummy movies. I'll make his sheet later.

Edit: I'll add the videos down here as I find them.

I don't know if a doubly undead, soul-sucking monster that can't really exist for long without killing people and bleeding their spirits dry is a good idea for this.

[Dezuel]

Personally I would love seeing Raziel or Kain :P. Awesome story in those games and excellent voice acting.

Would be curious to see how Raziel would act in a world like this aswell since he needs to sustain himself. Since he is generally a good aligned character so might be causing him alot of problems when facing the possiblity of having to devour some people whom are not nasty. Unless he specifically go chase after criminals that is :P

[KoL]

Don't we have enough villainous characters already as we are? This only serves to cause more trouble.

Also, even if Raziel went around killing the worst of the scum to sustain himself, he would still be a source of conflict, given that summary execution is something no one would tolerate.

[Dezuel]

Menmaru
Alberich
Flagg

Evangeline?
Mordred?

And on the other side or middle field

Nanoha
Tohka
Youmu
Vita
Emilio
Tenshi
Ben
Misaki
Hibiki
Andersen
Asterios
Leo

No. I wouldn't say we have enough. As for trouble and conflict, you almost make it sound like it is a bad thing. Personally I see it as an opportunity for all manner of forces to play their part and possibly grow closer to those who are actually fighting on their side.

[VitaVitaAR]

Evangeline and Mordred are not villains.

There's also a difference between conflict and, um...

"Someone who eats souls trying to associate with people who would find that entirely reprehensible".

[Dezuel]

Hah! Even less villains then.

And as for conflict. To clash, collide, contend and to fight is what the word also means. It doesn't have be limited to mere quarrels or just simple disagreements about minor matters. Though as things are right now, theres only Flagg remaining free and suffice to say that he isn't going to do well against ten others. So the campfire singing is surely not too far away.

[VitaVitaAR]

Yes, but on the other hand a character like Raziel is not going to be able to function as anything aside from an antagonist due to the whole "eats people's souls" thing.

Like, conflict is obviously a good thing for something like this but on the other hand you can't have someone on the more heroic side who the other more heroic would want nothing to do with and most would absolutely think deserves to be taken down(nonlethally or lethally it would vary from character to character).

There's no real reason for "well we don't like it but we have to work with them" here.

[KoL]

I second @VitaVitaAR's opinions, obviously. In the end this will inevitably lead to a point when the only option will be players killing/permanent imprisonment which are both things that any sane persons would rather not touch with a 12-feet pole, givent he amount of salt it generates.

I really don't see why we even need PC antagonists in this game.

[Raineh Daze]

PC conflict that only exists when the PC's are literally confronted with each other doesn't tend to work well or go very far--it pretty much leads straight to a fight if the conflict is due to one person doing something that the others would have to stop.

PvP doesn't really go far on its own.

[TheFake]

At least they can kill Flagg over and over again
