A Bizarre New World: A JoJo's Bizarre Adventure RPG Sign Up & Discussion Thread

[Yun Lao]

All right. Took a little extra time because a few people still had things to discuss, but here we go. Approved means... well, approved, and pending means that a few corrections are needed before a complete approval.

Note: if the quoted profile I pull these from is not the updated one, then let me know.

Vivian

Needs an age and DOB since Johannes does possess a copy of everyone's birth certificates. If you want to keep her age a mystery to the cast then just message me.
>Approved

Sandra Johansson

>Approved

Miguel Foster

>Approved

Giuseppe Gionata Zeppeli

Considering what you've told me about your Stand idea, you need to update your profile to reflect that
>Pending

Dafydd Pender

You have one more Stand User point left. Also, in order for WCMTWS's Void effect to cause damage by the force of stoppage, it will require a point in POW.
>Pending

Suzie Zee

>Approved

Lucy Lennon

Like Cthulhu, I will need her place of birth which you can message me with to keep up the mystery. Also, her stand ability needs a condition.
>Pending

Touou Hyou

... and it's gone. If you'd want, feel free to message me and we can work out your character.

Wen Jinghu

Boris Kuvalda

So is Big Time a towering figure? Nothing wrong with that, but I just need to know. Also, how does it activate its ability?
>Pending

AMON

We get 125, right?

My maths says: 41 + 12 + 41 + 31 = 125?

My profile specifically says targets of The Void take no damage from the process of being stopped, so I'm not sure what you're referring to?

It might be poor wording on my part; if Dafydd cancels someone's momentum as they are jumping over a pit or something, then they would take damage from the ensuing fall into said pit. If he targets a person's foot as they are running down some stairs, they will likely trip and will take some damage from falling down the stairs but the actual act of stoppage doesn't cause any damage in of itself.

Happy to tweak at your direction if it's not street legal or whatever.

[Noldere]

I should be working, instead I made this. I figured that Wen might have painted something right after she recovered from the Night Fever and that it might have looked something like this.

Attachment 102755

Note that I'm no artist, so assume it was done hastily like writing down a dream before the memory of it faded away. Look close for the hidden image behind the art.

Is that Johannes in a different profile/viewpoint underneath all that?

It sounds like you're good as far as the stand goes, given you're not actually trying to directly damage anyone with The Void.

Yun's just pointing out that your Dafydd himself has an extra point to put somewhere.

Starting Stat Points: 6

Dafydd's Current Stat Points: 5 [ 2 (STR) + 1 (SPD) + 0 (AGI) + 1 (DUR) + 2 (RES) - 1 (WIL) - 1 (PER) + 0 (ART) + 1 (SKI)]

Oh the user! Gotcha, right! Poor reading comprehension on my part.

Okay... I'll drop that into DUR then. Make him a bit more hardwearing.

[Tami]

Looked, and Giuseppe and Jamie both have named mothers (Chiara Zeppeli for Giuseppe and Helen Hall for Jamie).

It was late, I should have looked closer. Thanks for the info, I'll add it.

Once more information is available, and I feel up to doing it, I'll make a more detailed Family Tree.

[Tami]

Is that Johannes in a different profile/viewpoint underneath all that?

Good eye. Yes that is him though on second thought I should have just used the eyes. The feelings I was aiming for was mixed emotions, confusion, and a sense of someone peering out from the darkness.

I created another version of this painting. Hopefully this one is slightly better.

Yeah, with that bit of clarification, it works.

The way I read it on the profile made it seem like the sudden stop in momentum could possibly cause some damage.

Happy to amend for clarity if you like? Indicate the section that caused confusion and I'll try and make it more clear.

Nah, it's good after you mentioned that.

Dai is Approved

If Stands reflect the psychology of the Users, we have a very interesting group here.

I never got around to putting it on (metaphorical) paper, but I was toying with the idea of Hyou's stand not being his original stand; she was instead a literal* guardian angel that slew and took his original stand's place after it (the original stand) nearly killed him (and completely ruined him physically, thereby explaining the -1s in every physical stat and martial arts).

Aegis, the guardian angel, actively hates Hyou's guts (for understandable reasons), but has no choice but to perform the duty she's been forced into. At one point I was considering the bond between user and stand being one way, but felt it more interesting to keep it as it normal, with the exception that Aegis has absolutely no compulsion to follow Hyou's commands, even ones made for the purpose of self-preservation.

*Literal in the sense that whatever agency/force/power that brought Aegis into being considered her as such, not that she's a literal angel (Do angels even exist in Jojo proper?).

That actually sounds pretty cool as a concept.

As for angels existing in JoJo, I'm pretty sure they do considering spoilers:

Might even make for an interesting plot point if each of JJ's kids has a silent and invisible Guardian Angel on standby, but that Hyou's was forced into action as you described.

Need to clarify what the SKI stat is measuring
>Pending

Sorry, I thought it was clear enough with her background and other, but her SKI stat is measuring her medical skill. I can make it more obvious on her profile.
