This is my first thread, it's heavily based on Hotline Miami but it's a different story.

You wake up at 7 am to the sound of the phone ringing in the living room. It briefly stops ringing then almost instantly it starts again. You stagger half-asleep into the living room, pick up the phone, and say "Hello?" to no response. As you begin to repeat yourself, you hear a dial tone. Fucking prank callers. What do you do?
A) Go back to sleep
B) Eat something
C) Something else (Write-in)

You sit in the cramped quarters of your dorm at the Bardic College of Lore. After training for years you have mastered a variety of instruments, the lute, flute, drums, harp, piano and personal favorite. Bagpipes. You've shown yourself to be adapt in magic and speech, you can tell the ingrediants of a wine or mead by scent alone and you've bedded over 20 women since your first year here near four years ago.
You look at your desk cluttered in hastily scribbled sonnets and half-finished ballads. Looking at this mess makes you smile, fond memories here at the college. You clear the desk and get your graduation bundle that comes with: Replacement strings, a cleaner for your flute, a small rapier and stiletto dagger, and a small scroll with a pot of Dark Purple ink.

Today your graduate and go out into the world to build your own legend as master wordsmith and elegant poet. All you have to fill out now are the exit papers provided by the school and you can begin your journey.

The Raiders – Part 23

You are about to confront another cadre of githyanki in the Lair Dunzamn has arranged. Your late arrival has closed all the prime locations within the lair to you, unless you take one. Leader Joerno has taken onee of the better locations; his cadre include a single knight, a single spellcaster, and and two warriors. And one dragon, of course.

That's the real problem.

You don't particularly desire a fight, but it may come down to that. You cannot ask Dunzamn for a favor, and realistically you are running short on your personal wealth with which to bribe anyone with. If he wants slaves, he's out of luck; you have enough people who want them that you can't promise them to anyone else. Nor are you inclined to do so, especially with the value of elven youths and childer. Not to mention Siobhan's and Yzia's fascination with princesses. You're not really sure if Siobhan is picking that up from you subconsciously or she's just that strange.

Given that you no longer need as much rest as you used to, and your wide variety of skills and means, you could offer services or even favors in exchange. You don't like incurring debts, especially with your status being so tenuous.

That thought brings the nagging memory back. The memory of the Master Smiths telling you some kind of monster was moving about the stronghold, coming on the heels of your own personal revelation of being something comparatively monstrous compared to the average githyanki as it did, tugs at you. The idea of being so alien to your people that they sense you as a monster is both terrifying, and somewhat thrilling. Will you still love me when I am declared anathema and heretic, scheduled for execution or worse, my love?

I will love you were you burned to ashes and I to a molten lump of slag, mistress mine, she sings softly to you, less words and more a series of ideas and thoughts, much more complex than what she used to be capable of. Your blade has grown, and wild in some ways. You could not ask for more. Well, you could, and you just might get it at this rate, so you try and avoid asking for more.

Your Cadre approaches the mezzanine were you had told Tzanzi that if cages were put it, you would find it perfect. A water source nearby, lavatories, and solid rock on the opposite side, isolated from the main groups of the Raid and yet with easy access and escape routs. There are four other cadres up there, but three are in no position to be a threat to Joerno as it stands and the fourth is mildly disinterested in his cadre but is relatively close by. That could change if he has alliances, of course, or if they are particularly....devout. It is as good a word as any for those who take Her Majesty's edicts as unquestionable and absolute truth.

Personally, you're starting to wonder about that too. That thought is hidden behind layers of mental defenses. You learn from your mistakes.

Character info pastebin in progress: http://pastebin.com/iB0tb7rz
Dice odds for best of 3: http://pastebin.com/994WTT3g

General rules:

There is a 10 minute voting period after each post. Non-contradictory votes will be combined as best as possible.

Write-ins for all votes are always welcome and encouraged. They may not all make it into the post or be altered to fit in, but I'll do my best to at least try to address the spirit of the write-in.

Very important or contentious votes may be redone in a stricter voting system as circumstances warrant.

Combat mechanics involve three rolls of 1d100, taking the best, and using the base accuracy and crit ranges of the the PTU system, roughly, but the 'turn order' will be more like the anime, where sometimes you can do a few moves in a row or be hit by a combo of moves yourself, all depending on circumstances. Stronger moves tend to take more time and have more cooldown than weaker moves and also may leave you open to an interrupt, so beware of that timing. Speed is more important for closing ground, intercepting, and other things and doesn't necessarily mean going first.

Pokemon and trainers are unique, and may have certain specializations, skills, or other things that the video-game mechanics might not allow. Some examples: That kung fu Bellsprout in the anime, that crystal Onix, or a Roggenrolla that can fly. Herb's perception skills, pokemon knowledge, context clues in general, and other things will hopefully come into play to avoid completely unfair, unforeseeable bullshit, but expect more bullshit from more advanced trainers.

Call me out on a mistake and receive a suggestive picture, mostly likely a butt.

Gobble (Munchlax)
Mace (Roggenrola)
Belladonna (Roselia)

You are Captain Kusajishi Riku, a shinigami in command of the Ninth Division of the prestigious Seireitei Court Guard, and today you've learned a little more about what that means.

Zanpakuto, the standard tool of any shinigami, are made from the reclaimed reiryoku of shinigami who are set to be reborn into the living world. A part of each of their souls is stolen by Ōetsu Nimaiya's spiritually-embued forge and converted into a powder which he forges into the stock of each asauchi, creating a blade with the ability to take an impression of its wielder's soul and mirror it in one of an infinite number of ways. A sword with the potential to become anything, a cherished companion blade both given by the God of the Forge and taken by him in time.

Your own precious blades however are a different, and far more disturbing matter.

The asauchi into which Tenkotsuki's power you forged after the destruction of her original blade during the Second World War was made not from the distilled power of Captains or Lieutenants, but from her own shinreiryoku: seized by Ōetsu on the day of her assassination on the rolling plains of Nasu. The loss of that divine essence left her unable to reconstitute herself as a deity should, leaving her to lose her mind over some five hundred years caught between life and death, which is how your soul and hers would later meet.

The asauchi into which Rosa's power you forged at the same time was also not made from a shinigami's reiryoku, but from her own. When the living quincy Rosa Rosette was killed in battle by Shihōin Yoruichi her power was stolen as well by Ōetsu's forge: allowing her to begin hollowfying in what should for her race have been an impossibility. It was this state of affairs that the spiritual being who was once Tamamo no Mae, now your treasured zanpakuto Tenkotsuki, sought to improve by binding herself to your very soul.

And it was Ōetsu who was responsible for the torment of both women, for two-thirds of you.

However, you find yourself unable to kill him just now for practical reasons... and anyway such affronts go well beyond your ability to satisfactorily punish him for them. Inari Ōkami, the mother-goddess of your own Tenkotsuki and by extension your own mother after a certain fashion, will be the one to render final judgment.

Your name is William and you… well you hurt. In the aftermath of the mission with Koko you finally let yourself feel the buildup of pain and exhaustion that had been accumulating all night. In total you’d been shot three times at close range, been tossed into the back of a bumpy, non-padded truck and then beaten for interrogation. The final fight with Sophia didn’t help, she was quick on her feet and seemed to want to cause you pain as much as you wanted to capture her.

Your drive back to the hotel unfortunately in a very similar truck to the one you were taken in on, the suspension not very good. In turn you get to sit upright this time, sandwiched gently between Cath and Bellona. Morrigan is upfront with Mary, Nem and Sarah in the back with the rest of you. You aren’t really sure where Sophia is, you think she’s probably with Koko since she wanted to talk to her or whatever Koko wants to do.

You barely notice when you pull up to the front door, Nem and Sarah dragging down the tailgate as Bell and Cath assist you out. You don’t really need it, you’re able to walk just fine but they seem to be concerned about you and you don’t really mind either, they feel nice.

Your walk through the foyer is something you barely notice but you hear some loud whispers and you notice Cath push somebody out of the way to the elevator. One trip up and then you find yourself taken to a room. Looking around you notice that it’s…

>Your room.
>Cath and Bell’s room.
>Mary and Sarah’s room.

Starlight twinkles above the warm, summer night, Cici’s dreams coming with a peace only a child could know as her mother struggles to lies still through gaps of quiet oblivion. The previous days had opened a whole new world of stress for the latter, one that no manner of daily reassurances could quite cure when bedtime came.

The voices, after giving it their best try on this particular evening, had been banished back to the living room and their studies, vaguely aware of the older women still milling around outside. Seems the most of them were used to shorter resting hours, all save Mina who had tucked herself in an hour ago. After all, tomorrow she would be speaking to her potential employer in the region, and that would require her being at her best.

So, the party came down to just Rosie, Sarah, and Rayne, the three women’s laughter carrying into the study as their supply of drink continues to dry up and leaving the voices yet one more tantalizing option as they whittle away at the works of the chronomancer.

Another jojo’s bizarre adventure quest stat’s, rule, etc.
Dice roll RULES

ROLLING: another JoJo’s Bizarre quest uses a d100 rolling. The default table for significant actions the tiers of success requiring a roll is as follows:

1 CRITICAL MISS,
2-10: Definite Miss
11-89: Various Degrees of Success
90-99: Definite Success
100: OVERPOSE!

1s and 100s cannot be overturned unless the other is rolled to cancel it out. Otherwise, the highest tier of success achieved goes.


WHAT DO STATS DO?: The stats do two things. First, they extend the “Definite Success” range of a Stand’s actions, as follows:

E: No change (90-99)
D: 80-99
C: 75-99
B: 70-99
A: 65-99
BATTLE SYSTEM: There is no flat health value, nor is there any flat way to determine damage sustained due to an attack. Powers can tend to inflict conditions that the enemy has to deal with, and you don’t necessarily have to KO an enemy to take him or her out of the fight. A given power may inflict a condition that the player will have to contend against in some manner, similar to a FATE aspect. For example, if a Stand has the power to throw around gravity wells, and the user catches an enemy in the range of one of his wells, the target would, reasonably, be “weighed down” by the enhanced gravity due to the gravity well; it would be harder to move around and avoid any further attacks unless the well can be dispelled somehow. Treat the effects of a power similar to how you would treat any trait, except it is (usually) temporary in nature. Conditions are ranked from 1 (minor) to 5 (strong). Conditions also tend to stack upon each other, so it is best to try to get rid of conditions before they cripple your character. Even though a character may be heavily crippled by conditions, it doesn’t necessarily mean they are always out of the fight. It will be significantly harder to perform actions you want, but depending on the nature of the condition, you might still have an out if you can figure a way out of the condition yourself or can get backup from someone else. Just because you’re down doesn’t always mean you’re out.

Wardrobe.

Specific sets of clothes can grant specific advantages in situations. For instanceover the top designs are jojo oriented one’s have the ability to pose. Posing can grant any stat and move it up a rank for a few turns (longer depending on how well you roll). Clothes like suits and ties (normal ones)will give you a bonus in charm and additional dialog options. Standard, normal clothes can help you hide among civilian's if being hunted.

>Rules

At the end of each update you'll have ten minutes to vote on options. Write-ins are allowed, but I do reserve the right to veto them.

Your name is Keiichi Hirayama. In your world, the barrier separating spirits from humanity broke half a century ago, allowing magic to spill back into human society. From the ashes of this drastic upheaval rose a new breed of human--the magus. A magus possesses superhuman capabilities, an affinity for the mysterious spirits and can perform the reality-altering gift of magic. You are one such magus and so is your twin sister Airi Hirayama. Both of you are high school students and attend the prestigious, magus-exclusive True Hearts Academy in Shibuya, Japan.

Unlike most of your kind, the two of you possess a bizarre tendecy to cause chaos wherever you go. Last year, through bullets, explosions and freak accidents, the two of you managed to help interrupt Japan's premier magus academy battle tournament—The Festival of Magic—thrice in a row.

The Ministry of Education was very much unamused by your antics. As punishment, they have forced you and Airi to perform mandatory community service. Ten special tasks relating to the organisation of the Festival exist and they must all be completed before the tournament commencement date. The alternative is the death of your future careers. The whole situation is very confusing and there are many complaints to be had, but ultimately you and your sister have little choice. The eyes of Shibuya and the Spirit World are upon you both, so buckle down and don't screw this up!

You pat the back of the pokemon, the weird tiny creature sobbing in your embrace.

"There there." You say, feeling a little awkard as the creature makes your shoulder all wet and slimy, its a little gross. "I'm sure you are great at guarding... uncle?"

The pokemon nods, pointing at the ball. "Uncle Reshy, he was a big dragon now he's sleeping."

Wait... THAT Reshy? Uncle Reshy the Reshiram? The dragon of truth? The sortof chicken looking god?

That's... you thought it was just going to be a pot of gold.

----------------------------------------------------------------
You are Gerard Xavier, a begginer duelist who entered the Kaibacorp Begginers Tournament. You just went to sleep after a very stressful day day, but you know you have to get up early.

The Tournament Finals are today.

EPISODE 10

You sleep of nothing. Cold, unmoving nothing.

Until you see light.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

You wake up.
...and you overslept! There is no time to visit the shop right now, nor is there time to visit the shrine. You quickly get up and go to the Main Square.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

You arrive just in time for the apperance of Seto Kaiba.
>Welcome, participants. Some of you probably expect a long speech, but I'd rather not waste time now and get right to the tournament finals. However, first I have an issue to adres.
>In the last couple days, a new summoning method has surfaced, called Xyz summoning. While it is still unknown where it came from or who created it, we know that several cards that use it have found their way into this tournament. After investigating the situation and talking with the players that obtained these cards, I have decided to make this formal announcement:
>The usage of Xyz monsters is now oficially authorized in Kaibacorp tournaments, untill stated otherwise.

>Now for the 16 players who quallified for the finals...
