/Co/Co/'s Bizarre Adventure

There, we have a thread again.

Doc 7 is up-to-date with last thread (which died early since no one bumped it in the night).

>>88903758
Yes, the holidays continue for me as well and not having enough time to do anything.

So here's an unrelated thought to the current subject:
Let's say Emperor Zombie was one of Yzma's early immortality attempts. She deemed him a failure and buried him, where he stayed buried until Tulio dug deeper than the WB did and found him.

>which died early since no one bumped it in the night
Actually, it was in the morning

About Emperor Zombie, I was thinking he could had been a former member of the old Strickland and when I say old I mean from around part 2, probably an unseen member of the expedition to discover the pillar propane that got killed and somehow became undead

>>88932187
I was thinking he was another of Yzma's apprentices way back when, but if you feel that's played out then I guess he could be former Strickland. I just want him to be some kind of mutated pillarman who was once a regular human.

Though that adds another layer of complexity to the situation and might make the arc start to drag once we get to it (in several months from now).

>>88932273
Well, he is an occultist in Screw-on Head and Head described him as the smartest of his manservants (back when he was Mr. Manifold) "with a taste for ancient, forbidden knowledge". Maybe he was experimented on by Yzma and then dumped somewhere in the andes' labs when she got bored of him.

About the importance of his connection with Strickland, I think he'll just mention it once and then complain that the Foundation never sent a rescue team, which means that he spent a couple of decades wrapped like a pre-columbian mummy

>>88932948
I don't think he can both have been a member of Strickland and also have been experimented on by Yzma.

The timeline back in part 2 just doesn't allow for it.

>>88933003
Not really
>Manifold is killed/captured by the pillarmen when they first awaken
>the pillarmen drag him to Yzma and she briefly uses him to test her potions then discards him when he was no longer useful/too dried up to experiment with
>He becomes undead while bundled somewhere in the Andes

>>88933237
No, that doesn't work for me.
He'd need to have met Yzma before Kuzco wakes up if he had ever met her.

Or have been messed up after the fact, possibly a WB scientist researching the pillarmen who tried to recreate their immortality, but got buried only to be unearthed several years after the WB had fallen.
Of course he was buried before they fell, they just never bothered to dig him up.

Maybe a postmortem admirer of Yzma?

>>88932031
Oh shit these are doing superheroes now?

>>88933715
Being a former WB scientist works too. My main problem with him being a pillarman is that the previous pillarmen were all based on ancient civilizations (inca, atlantean, chinese), while Zombie is a 19th century american.

>>88932031
This is still alive? Neat.

>>88934116
Yeah, we're in part 7 now, the part we decided to save the bulk of capes for.

>>88934216
Alright, so WB scientist who was researching pillarmen, got zombified while trying to become immortal, buried, then unearthed by Tulio decades later to continue the work the lab was doing to give Tulio imitation pillarmen.

>>88934220
No one made a new thread yesterday when the old thread died and I was busy yesterday, so here we are.

>>88934116
comic characters are the focus of this part, superheroes are just a handful: Ghost Rider, Hank Pym, Superman and Stardust to name a few

>>88934309
the doc mention these guys from a chilean short, maybe instead of being the standard mooks of Tulio's army, the mutated pillarmen are decked like them to hide their deformed states

>>88934505
So when the armor comes off we see deformed mutated animal pillarmen who were once human?

>>88935354
I thought we were going with the uplifted animals that the pillarmen used in part 2, but yeah, under the uniforms there is an abomination with glowing eyes so messed up that it needs to be held up by metallic plates.

There were other soldiers mentioned in the previous thread that looked like the spawn of a cylon and a conquistador, those could be the standard troops

>>88934505
Any chance that Sentry could possibly play a part?

>>88935623
I thought the animals from part 2 used to be people. Well, the ones Yzma experimented on anyway.

>>88935794
I don't know who this is.

>>88935794
I don't know, there was an old idea about using the superman expies on this part, but it wasn't further elaborated

Did we agree on the nature of Frank's ability? if it was Melody or Pacing?

>>88937085
We did not.

It could go either way, but as it is right now, it feels more like pacing than melody, though he might be using both.

>>88937454
Speaking of Pacing, I checked the doc and the summary I made in the last thread is there, what else do we need to define about it?

>>88935925
Marvel Superman/Miracleman/Shazam type. Subconsciously warps reality. Also schizophrenic.

>>88937888
I don't know. There's only so much I can pour into it on my own before I hit a wall. Doesn't help that I'm going to still be scatterbrained for at least another week with all the stuff that's going on here.

For now, that pacing summery will have to do until someone else thinks of something to add onto it or another rule we need for it.

>>88938286
Well, the last thing in the previous thread was how Space was connected with Pacing, including the idea of Pym disrupting the narrative so hard that a rift between panels was created.

How both things are connected is what I'm trying to figure out, and also how disruption works

>>88939005
Space isn't a concept on its own anymore, it's been filtered into pacing.

There's no "both things" it's all one thing. Think of pacing as the way in which the panels are aligned on the page.

You don't have the conclusion/punchline in a tiny panel at the end of a page after this big panel on top with lots of empty space.

Pym could MAKE that conclusion panel smaller though.

Or something. Fuck. It's just I don't have time to really put thought into this right now.
And my computer won't stop fucking using up 100% of it's fucking disc space every other minute slowing everything to a fucking crawl.

>>88939655
I assumed we were going with the "become aware of the existence of the panels" thing. So, depending of its strenght, a disruption isn't only able to mess with the flow of the narrative, but also alters the frame of reference the user is inside.

On a related note, the concept of CHIM from the Elder Scrolls was brought as an example in the previous thread, and also the topic of how Wizard Daffy is going to be defeated, since part 8 is gonna be even more meta and Diego was the original winner of SBR, what if the Wizard manages to get a power boost from the Wishing Star (or a fragment of it) and becomes so aware of the medium that he zero sums during his fight with the reincarnated hero?

I forgot, here's the Stands from the previous thread
>>88786428
>>88786435
>>88786449

>>88941008
Pym is only able to mess with the "frame of reference" because he's using pacing in tandem with his stand which can shrink or enlarge things.

And Wizard Daffy getting to the Star means he gets the wish. It goes to whoever touches the thing first, but if he's killed before he can speak his wish, then that might be a loophole.

>>88942718
That's why I considered a fragment of the Star being separated from the main thing and consumed by the Wizard, there was already an idea floating around that a shard of the Star fell on Earth and became the Heart of Atlantis

>>88942718
I think his Stand was supposed to only enlarge insects first, then he gained the ability to shrink himself to their size once he merges with a corpse part

>>88943047
Maybe The Wizard draws power from the Wishing Star before being able to speak his wish?

The way it worked in Wacko's Wish is the first person who touches the star gets the wish, which is why I don't want The Wizard touching the wishing star unless he actually wins the race.

>>88943168
I don't even know what his stand does anymore.

Last thread someone suggested it ends up looking like Ultron at the end. No idea how it would get to that.

>>88944273
this is what it says in the doc. however, take into account that is from the time Pym was going to be a minor character
>｢EMPIRE ANTS｣ allows its user to make insects grow to massive size. He then harnesses them for use in pulling his vehicle.
>After acquiring a corpse part, he gains the power to shrink himself down to the size of an ant and beyond, but this may do him more harm than good in the long run

>No idea how it would get to that
Well, since his Stand is supposed to evolve like Tusk (though without Acts it seems), it could change appearance with each power-up; it starts as a flying ant with Ant-Man's helmet and his final appearance resembles Ultron once he fully master the Pacing

>>88944451
We need to work on how it evolves. Anyone who already has a stand who merges with a corpse part should get some really, really weird additional power.

Pym loses the corpse part that merged with him, so whatever powers he got from that would go with it.

File: Pym-Star.png (134KB, 700x900px) Image search: [Google]

134KB, 700x900px

If it's going to mirror Tusk with his four Acts, it could be something like this:

>First Stage: original Stand, can enlarge bugs, resembles a flying ant
>Second(?) Stage: unlocked after merging with the Corpse Part, gains the ability to shrink his user?. Appearance unknown
>Third(?) stage: unlocked after being fully capable of use the Pacing, makes him able to interact with panels? Appearance unknown
>Final stage: Unlocked after becoming a master of Pacing, can seal enemies inside ｢CLOSE-UPS｣. Resembles Ultron

>>88944946
How does he keep the additional abilities unlocked after he loses the ribs?

>>88944965
Let's see, Superman's corpse needs to be complete for the ritual planned by Nobody and Stardust's escape. Pym could either lose the Corpse part and its derived ability permanently, replacing it with the abilities obtained from becoming aware of the Narrative, or he does retain a rib or two from the Corpse and the missing parts of it become Stardust's weak point.

Another reason for his stand's evolution could be that he is contacted by the Hero's spirit, like when Jesus helps Johnny unlock Tusk Act 3

>>88945242
Pym being contacted by the spirit of Superman works for me.

Him retaining any parts though, does not.
Mr. Nobody counts them up before assembling the corpse.

File: Superghost.png (429KB, 345x526px) Image search: [Google]

429KB, 345x526px

>>88945421
Alright, so he either lose that extra ability for good or finds a way to retain it.

When he should be contacted by Superman's spirit?

>>88945754
While in the robot refugee town.

Pym hears someone calling him out on how cold he's being to the robots despite his "family" ties to a certain son.
It's Superman asking him if this is how a hero would act.

>>88945754
>>88944946
I think his original Stand was supposed to be some kind of ant chariot. Also, I dig the ideia that Pym's Stand keeps gaining and losing abilities (and keeps changing appearance) along the way. It is kind of fitting since his development as a character was marked by constant changes and undoings.

His first Stand came from a Jawbreaker, eh? It checks out that the main ability resembles something he could do in his original series.

His second ability came from a corpse part, so it should give him 4th wall breaking effects to keep with the Stand creation differences trend. I think it should make him able to shrink panels (which is a primitive version of the power of making Close-Ups) perhaps? This is where his Stand starts playing around with the power of pacing.

When he loses the corpse part, he should lose the ability to shrink panels or objects through his Stand, but should keep his new-found afinity with pacing, which ends up surpassing the original ability of shrinking panels to creating Close-Ups.

24KB, 662x325px

>>88945968
I don't think his Stand should evolve twice in the same stage, or maybe he is contacted by the spirit a second time and that's when he gains his next power-up

>>88946188
>I think his original Stand was supposed to be some kind of ant chariot
nope, the ant chariot is his second vehicle after the original is blown up by hitmen.

Maybe the shrinking/enlarging of panels allows him to emulate one of the abilities originally attributed to Space: changing the size of attacks depending on the perspective of the original Panel from where they came. Close-Up was originally an ability gained after a user achieves a perfect Space, from the old pastebin:

>It is said that if one achieves a perfect Space, they can put their enemy in a state that is separated from the rest of existence. Although they are technically still in the same universe, their ｢PANEL｣ will be one that only ever shows themselves. The victim will remain stuck in this living Hell known as a ｢CLOSE-UP｣ until the end of time, able only to think silently or shout into the void

>>88946568
Maybe his stand doesn't evolve until the robot town, but he notices his chest is bullet proof while on the bullet train.

>>88947102
So, he becomes bulletproof in Paris but unlocks his new ability only after talking with the Hero's spirit in the refugee town?

>>88947549
Yes. That is what I said.

He doesn't notice the bullet proof chest until on the way to the Old Country. There's something in the doc for that from last thread.
I figure that'll be during their second fight with Scud.

>>88947727
yeah, I didn't know where that was going to take place though. I think there was going to be another part where he checks himself during their rest and notices the crest of the house of El branded in his chest.

About that train fight, if I'm not wrong is some kind of boarding action scene where they have to jump from one train to another, correct?

>>88948336
I don't know where all this talk of two trains is coming from.

I think Scud gets a ride to the bullet train from some train stand or something?

Then they fight in the bullet train, then on top of the bullet train.

>>88948494
There was this idea that a group of stand users (among them the guy from Diesel) boarded a train, then someone suggested an enemy with a stand that is a train or is bound to a train, à la Wheel of Fortune.

>>88948743
I remember Venom Thomas the Tank Engine being mentioned, but I don't think it's being used.

Anyway, the question on my mind is, will this thread still be up when I wake up?

Got a suggestion for a Part 8 hero/ally, if that's cool.

Liska (Scalie Schoolie)
Stand Name: [BLUE'S TRAVELER] (Pun on the American rock band Blues Traveler)
Appearance: Takes the appearance of a blue draconic humanoid with long spring-like arms and legs with sharp metallic claws on the end. It's dressed in the stereotype orange Dragon Ball Z gi.

Powers: [BLUE'S TRAVELER] can create small, ethereal, golden springs on any object it touches with its claws, which cause forces exerted by said object to be amplified greatly. Liska mainly uses it to juice up her own attacks and running ability, since she's really not all-that-smart. But occasionally she can pull off something clever.

Stats:
Destructive Power: C (Standard Punchghost Destructive Fare)
Speed: A (Springy limbs stretch out with incredible quickness)
Range: D
Durability: B
Precision: A
Potential: A or B (If it was under the control of someone smarter)

Character Ideas:
> Liska was a fan of Homestar's back when he used to do track. Her motivation to help him lies there.
>Initially ashamed of her STAND, because it's the super Dragon Ball Z powers she had hoped to have one day.
>Possibly have a mentor character to show her how to make better use of her stand.
>If a romance is written for her, maybe have it be with some kind of super-genius to play off her inherent cluelessness. Double D maybe???

six out of eight parts were done last year

>>88955020

Stop lying. Out of these six only two are actually completed, the rest is a patch of notes and dialogues or incomplete scripts.

>>88954968

Actually, I think that drawing was taken from a delivery from the drawthreads, not exactly made for this project in particular.

>>88955103

232KB, 809x1052px

Hey guys, it's been some time since I did some art for this project, but here's a drawing of me, the most iconic character in here.

I wanted to give part 3 drawings an 80's music album cover vibe so they don't get too boring, so here it is.

>>88955224
Parts 1, 2, 5, and 6 are all over 85% done if not 100% done.

The problem with part 3 is anons were only interested in certain parts of it and the problem with part 4 is interest dropped like a stone after Gadget's death.
I'd place them both at roughly 65% "done"

After we're done with part 8, I'd like to go back and see if we can properly finish those parts.

But we're in part 7 now, and the part of part 7 that we are still in is the beginning.
If I had more free time, then I'd be able to write more for it like I did last thread, but odds are I won't have enough free time until after the 14th.

I'm surprised no one else has jumped in yet with how much anons were hyped for part 7.

Hmm. Not particularly against that. Scalie Schoolie is already plenty les.

But regardless I think it might be wise to bring the Eds back for Part 8 considering you can draw from "Night of the Were-Ed" and "Bring Me to Ed" for material.

I've got an idea that goes something like this.
>After Part 6 or 7 the Eds are contracted by Bobby and the Strickland Foundation to investigate the mysterious, new Stand-user named Chris-Chan
>Chris uses his weird-ass hybridization STAND powers to defeat the Eds and attempts to hybridize Ed with the Chicken-Girl thing from "Bring Me to Ed" to create some new abomination to serve him
>He's mostly successful, but Ed's strong willpower allows him to send a piece of his remaining spirit with both Double D and Eddy.
>As a result SAFETY DANCE and MONEY FOR NOTHING get snazzy, new upgraded forms with more monstrous appearances. (This incorporates both Ed having a monster-like stand and allows the "Night of the Were-Ed" concepts to show up)
>Double D and Eddy now have their motivation to help out yet again, in finding their missing friend and defeating the Mayor of CWCville

>>88958772
I thought the Were-Ed version of them was going to be used for the AU.
Maybe Chris-chan motivation in part 8 is like the other main villains that wanted to reshape reality to their image. In his case, turn the world into CWCville with his Stand's abilities (he of course will claim that he is the first to ever come up with the idea of alter reality)

>interspecies lesbianism
let's add that to the list of weird pairings

He wants no trouble, but has to fight them anyway.

Is Pacing connected in some way to the STAR energy? I'm trying to figure out how a user of Pacing can project his rhythm and disrupt others

>>88962882
It's like a sub-skill of melody, like how styles are too.

>>88963202
Then we could use the idea of the users being able to infuse objects (or their bodies if skilled enough) to directly interact with the Narrative and cause the disruptions

>>88963620
Like... Pym infusing pacing in a gun and slides it across a table to someone. When they pick it up, they fall into Pym's pacing?

I'm just thinking about how Pym will kill DAVE or do something worse to him after DAVE's killed Hex.

>>88964075
Perhaps, I was thinking more about the disruption thing, the user infuses an object (doesn't even need to be a weapon) and when it strikes something or someone with it not only will physically harm the target but also but also perturbate the flow of the narrative that surrounds him, like tossing a stone into a river. Alternatively, the disruption could be caused because the pace of the target meet violently with another entity's pace

>>88964269
That's not easy to visualize.

>>88964440
The line of ants example was dropped in the previous thread, with said example, the charged item would be like a twig or a rock falling in the middle of the line sending all the ants into disarray. in this case, the infused object will cut the target's flow momentarily, causing him to behave erratically and allowing unlikely events to take place before the narrative restores itself

>>88964612
The problem isn't how it works, it's the application.

How is it applied? What does it look like?

86KB, 1366x768px

>>88964775
I don't know why, but I been picturing the Narrative as a bluish ethereal stream surrounding everything (like pic related) that only the users of the Pacing are able to visualize. An item used for disruption would look like it's surrounded by a small whirlwind of energy that propagates into the target's pace once it strikes him

Since Aunt May disguises herself as Spider Ma'am when doing missions for the Dada party, Goofy could don his Super Goof disguise at one point, maybe he becomes emboldened once he gains his Corpse part and realizes that Nobody's plan is going smoothly.

>>88965048
Being able to see it like a tangible thing is a bit much.

Unless the narrative is comprised of STAR energy and part of the pacing training is to learn how to see them.

>>88965815
Does Goofy keep the leg going into the European stage, or does he give it to Mr. Nobody at CN City?

>>88965979
Perhaps Goofy is allowed to keep his Corpse part since he is a more useful agent with it, he still gives the leg to Nobody when he boards the Absolution for the final stage of Nobody's plan.
What if Goofy contacts the spirit of the Hero at one point?

>>88965048
>>88965979
I just had an idea: STAR leylines.

In part 6 there was a STAR vortex, how can you have a vortex of something if the something is not already there?

Pacing is the practice of learning to sense STAR leylines and redirect the narrative by playing off of them. A disruption is caused by putting active pressure on them instead of passive pressure.

But it gets better, the leylines are actually the panel boarders.

When Pym redirects one of Stardusts attacks, he redirects it to one of these leylines so Stardust creates a disruption bigger than any pacing user could create and Pym takes advantage of it to eject Stardust from the narrative.

It's so stupid it might just work.

>>88966476
The spirit of the Hero keeps trying to tell Goofy that what he's doing is wrong and won't bring back his son.

How does Goofy even think this would bring back Max?

>>88967135
>Goofy is so determined to bring back his son that not even Superman's advice faze him
Damn, he has steel balls

>How does Goofy even think this would bring back Max?
Goofy was originally searching for the Corpse parts to use them against the WB, he may believe that the Corpse has the power to bring back the dead, or Perhaps Nobody promised him to use his Stand to erase the deceased part of Max' text box (he makes a similar offer to Pym in the climax), or he gave Goofy the false promise of handing over the Wishing Star to him

>>88967634
Or maybe it was a real promise, Goofy just decided the cost of getting the Wishing Star was too high.

Maybe Superman or someone who finds out his motives asks him what his son would think of him if he found out about all the terrible things Goofy has done trying to revive him.

Would Max be comfortable living on like that, knowing he's standing on top of a mountain of corpses?

>>88968486
The problem is that Nobody promised that the Wishing Star was for whoever reach it first, so he either lied to Goofy or to all the other racers (I guess that's one of the factors that tip the karma scale against Nobody in the end)

>Maybe Superman or someone who finds out his motives asks him what his son would think of him if he found out about all the terrible things Goofy has done trying to revive him
I think he has a conversation with either Crazy Jane or Serenity on the way to the final stage

>>88968809
Maybe Mr. Nobody didn't lie, he just promised he'd give Goofy every opportunity in the world to reach the star first.

Do we have any idea of what to do with Big Skeleton and his stand [ENJOY YOURSELF]?

(Pic related.)

>>88969177
I asked the same a couple of threads ago (and suggested that we check that list of characters in the Stand doc), he could be one of the marks Hex encounters during the race.

>>88969299

Cool, but what would happen to him?

Would Hex end up killing him?

Or would he simply be "retired"?

>>88969516
So far Hex is capturing his marks to turn them to the local authorities and receive the bounty (some of the Front Men could die in their encounter), He could also be a hitman, which open the possibility of getting offed or retired.

Being a skeleton makes me wonder if he is related to the monsters first seen in part 1.

>>88969177
What does the stand do?

>>88971203
Is in the Stand doc:
>「ENJOY YOURSELF」 can cause nearby individuals to become completely obsessed with themselves, through the usage of 「t h e m u s i c」.
>The psychological change caused by 「t h e m u s i c」 is gradual.
>The change caused by 「t h e m u s i c」 can only be reversed once the user is killed
>Those affected by 「t h e m u s i c」 become completely self-absorbed, and shun any form of contact with any individual who is not them, to the point of maiming or killing anyone nearby.

>>88971260
Sounds like he'd be working with Loki.

Maybe while Loki is fucking around in Springfield, it's Big Skeleton's job to look around the circus and get into a fight with that guy who can make people sink into the ground.

While they fight, Aunt May stealthily steals the corpse part from the oddities/curiosities display.

We could work in Big Skeleton being with Loki sooner as something of an assistant.
I'd need to know more about who he is before the nature of their relationship is established - is he begrudgingly working for Loki, or willingly working for him?

>>88971503
In his series, he was the one that agree on every idea the other skeleton (Little) came up with, saying "good idea" each time

>>88972347
So he's a yes man who Loki keeps around to stroke his ego?

When Crazy Jane goes retrieving the remaining corpse parts, she could take the skull from the dead Mean Angel and merge with it, her face warps Khnum-like and briefly turns into Kara's before going back to her own face.

>>88973373
sounds fine, just like how Hades has Twayne as his personal boot licker

>>88973671
With Jane, her face could even go Kent for a second.

Bumping with hopes someone will show up to bounce ideas that have already been posted back at me with input/feedback.

Bumping before bed. Hoping someone else keeps it from dying.

>>88976380
When Crazy Jane merges with the complete Corpse, does she develops a Supergirl (or Power Girl) personality or she is possessed by the original one?

I'm just a passerby, but what do all of you plan to do once you finish your jojo fanfiction?

need to see some bananaman with bananaman.

>>88983952
I'll move on to my own projects, I guess. Maybe revisit it after some time too.

>>88983977
Yep, he's a foe they encounter in the Europe leg during the train fiasco. Though I consider his role and Stand still up to debate.

>>88985532
One of the versions of his Stand works with defeated enemies, so it would need to appear after a number of characters are retired/killed

>>88983385
Maybe Supes just talks with her, at first she thinks it's just another one of her personalities, but then she realizes he's the actual spirit of Superman.

The final evolution of Pym's Stand could be able to coordinate with the versions of itself that exist in other panels, so during the fight with Stardust he is punched from all directions from multiple Empire Ants.

>>88964075
>I'm just thinking about how Pym will kill DAVE or do something worse to him after DAVE's killed Hex
It was suggested in the last thread that an encounter could end with the loser's corpse floating in the space between panels, maybe part of the final encounter with DAVE takes place in that white void and Pym, still not knowing how to fully control the panels, must escape before the rift closes.

>>88986976
I thin it would lose impact if Pym defeats anyone before Stardust using the void trick.

Maybe half-way into the voice, clipping away half of DAVE's body, but not full void.

>>88987432
I don't think Pym would cause the void the first time (at least not intentionally), it first appear as an alien element that Pym tries to evade, and the second time it appears, he boldly tries to weaponize it.
I like the idea of D.A.V.E. getting cut in half by the closing rift, it should be the upper half so he can stare into the white space for eternity.

>>88986747
I think Superman spirit went to the afterlife instead of remaining in the Corpse. Perhaps the impact of the Hero in history was so great that not only he became the embodiment of the concept of heroism but the whole Super family became linked to his existence and the Corpse can act as a medium for their spirits to comunicate with the living.

>>88985532
I'm pretty sure it was already addressed in the document, and that his stand was based on the song Banana Man by Tally Hall. With special stuff based on the portion of the song where they talk about the "Spirit Game."

>>88990430
>>88985532
Found it, in the stands document.

Bananaman (Bananaman)
「BANANA MAN」

Appearance: 5 floating heads with clown facepaint and big googly eyes, with the colors being gray, blue, red, yellow and green. 「BANANA MAN REQUIEM」 takes the form of a man wearing a button shirt with a red tie with the same big googly eyes and clown face paint similar to the floating heads, except this time it's white.

Abilties: 「BANANA MAN」 asks another person if they want a banana. If they accept, they will be given a banana. When eaten, the person who ate the banana will fall under control of one of the stand's floating heads. Along with taking control of the user, it can also gain control of their stand too, the stand can break free from the curse however.

「BANANA MAN REQUIEM」 brings in all bananas from a surrounding area of 500 feet and sets them on fire. Banana Man (the user) then begins to dance around the fire. This activates the 「SPIRIT GAME」. When Banana Man shouts out a defeated stand users name, a weakened version of them and a weakened version of their stand jumps out of the fire. Keep in mind these are weakened versions of both the user and the stands. They will then fight any stand user Banana Man tells them to fight. Banana Man can only summon 3 users at once. If he summons a 4th one, the 1st one jumps back into the flame and disappears. The 「SPIRIT GAME」 is deactivated if the fire is extinguished or it goes out.

Destructive Power: C→B
Speed: D→C
Range: D→B
Durability: B→A
Precision: D
Developmental Potential: D→B
I want to simplify it a bit and say that Requiem's power is his only power, but for him to create a copy you have to eat his banana, which knocks you out until he's defeated or the spirit returns to the flame. I'll let others decide if they want to make that change, though

>>88987818
I was thinking vertically, so DAVE is left with only half of his head.

>>88989479
So the hero's spirit isn't actually Superman's spirit, it IS the concept of heroism and Mr. Nobody is trying to erase it?

Trying to erase it so people can be free to make up their own minds?
Or some other reason. His motive really is up to interpretation.

>>88990904
Perhaps Superman was the Hero in life, but he was so intrinsically connected with the concept of heroism that he became the basis for an entity that embodied the concept of heroism long after Superman passed away. This entity, "The Hero", connects all those who were, are, and will be close to Superman's nature.
Since there are alternate universes in this setting, you could say that in the other universes, Superman's role was taken by any of his expies (or a completely unrelated character) but the result was the same: "The Hero" was born and whoever was in life became linked to this entity.

>>88992368
So The Hero is part of the universe's status quo? Something Mr. Nobody wants to break?

>>88992707
Yeah sure, think of it as a force of nature. Mr. Nobody can't delete "The Hero" because he doesn't exist right now, he needs to use Paint it Black on someone that embodies "The Hero" to be successful.

>>88992877
Are we going to be left wondering "why" he wanted to do this or "what that would've accomplished" if he succeeded?

>>88993902
I think his true motive behind erasing the concept of heroism (or at least what he believes it would cause) was stated at one point in the doc, however, the real effect of erasing heroism is left unaswered.

>>88990904
>so DAVE is left with only half of his head
Then the half that stays in the world could describe to Pym what lies beyond the rift before shutting down

>>88996261
Or scream in horror as he feels his mind being consumed by the void and his intelligence that he was so proud of leaking away.

>>88996452
So in his final moments he is driven insane by the vast emptiness like Morden in Doom Patrol?

>>88997178
Yes.

If Mr. Nobody is still alive when it happens, he should comment on that.

>>88997291
Nobody dies in the Absolution after Stardust is released, and it seems that DAVE is killed after he kills Hex, so Nobody may be alive at that point.

>>88997408
That whole area is still murky since it's so far off.

How's the presentation so far with the side plots? In the plans we have so far, do they distract too much from the main plot?

>>88998704
I don't think so, the hunt for the Corpse parts gets serious only after the first stage is cleared, and most of the side plots are contained in their respective leg of the race.

>>88998858
It helps that the side plots tie into the hunt for the corpse parts then.

did we decided the Stand of Snake Eyes and the Front men?

>>88990497
looks like we need to simplify that ability

>>89000783
We have not decided on a stand for Snake Eyes yet.

So does Aunt May steal the corpse part from the circus, then hand it off to them, or are they more involved in the fight? They seem like a cowardly lot who are more opportunistic than confrontational.

>>89001213
Maybe Aunt May did the hardest part, like taking down a Stand user guarding the Corpse part, while the Front men were busy "securing the area" (gunning down unarmed people)

>>89001302
Right now we have Big Skeleton fighting that other guy who's name I forget while Sam and Max fight Loki's giant stand.

Springfield is going to get trashed.

>>89001620
aye, just another day in the city of Springfield

>Big Skeleton fighting that other guy who's name I forget
Who? Hex?

>>89001949
No, the guy in the circus with a piano stand or something that makes people sink into their shadows. He's the actual corpse part guardian.

Frank is also there killing the circus ringleaders for being drug smugglers and their involvement with human trafficking.

>>89002018
So both the Dada party and Loki's allies are assaulting Jojo's circus?

>>89002257
Frank goes after the ringleaders, Big Skeleton goes after the real guardian, Loki is assaulted by Sam and Max who are holding a grudge.

While all this fighting is going on, Aunt May sneaks in an grabs the corpse part.

I don't know what role Jojo plays in all this. Is she the one who initially meets Sam and Max and tips them off that Loki is at the circus?

Ghost Rider is also there possessing Jiggy's body, who drops out of the race after Ghost Rider goes back to heaven because it's just too hazardous to his hair.
Maybe he becomes the new leader of the circus.

>>89003126
I think the Coachman was supposed to be connected with the WB, perhaps he is part of a group in the circus that sides with Loki, and Jojo is with those that are sticking to their duty of protecting the Corpse part, she goes to recruit allies against Loki's minions while the mole guy stays to guard the part.

Also, what happen with Sam and Max after Springfield? there is no mention of them after that section

>>89004269
They're still stuck as women, but the focus doesn't go directly on them anymore after that.

They're from that point on, in the race to win the race for the wish. There's some stuff about them right before the Paris checkpoint.

I don't know what they're doing at the end game.

>>89005201
they aren't going to win the Wishing Star, right?

>>89005472
No, they aren't.

So unless some other method comes up or something else happens that requires their attention forcing them to drop out of the race...

Hmm... I feel like Stickland or Interpol could have a solution to their problem.
One of the conditions to Sam and Max's existence is they must always be on "the side of justice", so they can't be bad guys.

If Yzma's potions could turn people into animals, could they turn females into males?

They could get their hands on Emperor Zombie at the end of the Tulio arc and arrest him.
But there are so many variables still in play leading up to that.

Well, here's a bump before bed.

>>89005936
There is also the genderswapping Stand from part 8

>>88665797
If Mojo Jojo is captured in the second stage, will the fight take place in Fantastic Island or in the Bionicle archipelago?

who says the "Our Glorious Leader has generously decided to host your ridiculous race, the least you can do is be good targets in return" line when the racers encounter Tulio's army? Condorito, Emperor Zombie, or someone else?

>>89009471
Yeah, but that's part 8. None of those guys are appearing in part 7 as far as I know.

>>89010124
In order for Hex to turn in a bounty, there needs to be somewhere for him to turn it in at.

On Fantastic Island, there's no opportunity since clemency is in effect (does not apply to the Front Men he captures) and at sea there's nowhere to turn Mojo in at for the reward.

>>89012505
He could stuff Mojo in the car/boat trunk (with a gag so he can't start a monologue) and turn him to the authorities once he arrive to Europe, or he could take the "dead" option of "dead or alive" and bring to the authorities only a proof of Mojo's demise (this option depends of how dangerous is Mojo in combat)

>>89013711
Mojo being killed on Voya Nui would resolve some problems.

If Hex takes him alive, the nearest place to turn him in at is the checkpoint. If he takes him to the checkpoint, then he can't turn him in.
So either they make a lengthy detour to turn him in, or they wait until the time limit expires so that they're both no longer in the race so Hex can turn him in.

Neither option is preferable, so Mojo getting killed and Hex turning in the brain helmet as proof would work.

>>89014388
Is he going to be part of the fight for the Corpse eye(s)?

Holy shit, this thing is still going!
What's happening now?

>>88985532
He needs to team up with Mighty Ray.

>>88989479
As long as there is a shadowed figure that vaguely resembles Superman, is seen by people who take corpse parts, and talks to Pym I'll be fine.

>>89015985
The short version: The President of the United States, Mr. Nobody, is organizing a race across the globe with the Wishing Star as the grand prize, the race is a cover for his search of the pieces of Superman's Corpse. Jonah Hex and Hank Pym team up to stop him before he can use the completed Corpse to erase the concept of heroism.

>>89016130
>He needs to team up with Mighty Ray

>Is there a Diego-like comeback at the end
yeah, and the fucker outlives Stardust the Super Wizard, taking the place of final antagonist

>>89015848
He can be. That's not plotted out yet.

Maybe Mojo gets contacted by one of the Dadaists on Fantastic Island who offer him a deal now that their Front Men have been eliminated.

>>89017655
seems like a running gag that whoever is contacted by the Dada party ends up dead or fucked over horribly

>>89016351
There is the white space between the panels that users of the Pacing can access. We are considering a scenario where Pym vanishes Stardust into that void (on top of dismembering him somehow and trapping each part in a close-up)

>>89018129
Even the Dada Party themselves.

Though some of them do survive the part and continue to serve the people.

>>89020663
I think Melusine was supposed to survive along with Killinger, anyone else?

>>89021295
I don't know. The event order leading up to the ending isn't anywhere near filled out enough to tell.

let's see: Nobody dies in the Absolution, Aunt May in or after Rio, D.A.V.E. is destroyed after killing Hex, and the Blue Meanie is retired in France, the ones whose fate is undecided are Mirror Master (who appears atleast until the sabotage of the airship) Doctor Destiny and V.

>>89021917
I think V survives because he's an idea.

Mirror Master and Doctor Destiny could perish when Stardust is revived and destroys part of the Absolution.

We need Doctor Destiny to actually have a role somewhere in the story.

>>89022325
>I think V survives because he's an idea
So, V is "killed" and he just vanishes in space while giving a speech about ideas being bulletproof?

>>89023504
If anyone could kill V, it'd be Stardust.

>>89024016
What about Wizard Daffy and whatever power boost he gets in the climax?

>>89025623
I think his power boost will come from Mr. Nobody erasing anything that isn't Daffy in his identity since he fulfilled the condition of giving him the corpse.

Then it's Super Serenity VS an insane, half-reborn M.E. LeTerally with the blanks filled in solely on how The Wizard imagined Daffy to be.

And the ending is a clash of imprinted identities as someone slips by to snatch the Wishing Star out from under The Wizard's beak.

Shit, another page 10 bump.

Well, here's hoping the thread lives through the night.

Can Someone Give Me An Update On What The Hell Is Happening? Last Time I Was here We Just Started DOing The middle Of PArt 6

>>89031619
So I assume that is after Dora was sent to Pure Imagination. This is the best summary i can make:

The Warden organizes a series of worldwide raids to the jawbreaker vaults of the WB, in one of these raids the band Dethklok is captured and airlifted to Belle Reve. Interpol tries to decypher the pattern of the attacks and the Warden's intentions.

Shit happens inside Pure Imagination as Dora and company try to figure out how the place work and how they can escape. They discover that Pure Imagination is not only the Warden's playground, but is also a harvester of STAR energy.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Interpol eventually discover a traitor among their ranks and Penny faces him and Mr. Frizzle in one of the vaults. The fight ends with Penny being captured and sent to Belle Reve, where the Warden reveals to Penny that his plan is to use the massive amounts of STAR energy in the area to expand his Stand into the world.

After facing the most dangerous inmates released from Pure Imagination's supermax section, the group manages to escape just in time to witness the final stage of the Warden's plan. A battle ensues between two groups: the forces of Interpol and the old guard of Strickland against the Warden's minions, comprised of the loyal prison staff and the mechanized army built by Chane Wassanasong, current head of Strickland.

Profesor Bruttenholm discovers a way to tap into the vortex and reverse its flow. Dora sacrifices herself to blow the Warden with the STAR Vortex, whose explosion obliterates the prison and reach space, attracting the Wishing Star to Earth. The outrage caused by the incident allows Mr. Nobody to get ahead in the polls and become president of the USA, setting into motion the events of part 7.

and the current summary of part 7 is here >>89016182 and in the doc.

>>89027987
Are we going to use the old idea of his Stand evolving into 「Cuban Pete」? there is already that part in its description about growing each time he absorbs a portion of Daffy's identity

>>89022325
I think Doctor Destiny was suggested as the guy in charge of public relations, and in the previous thread he was described as the serious guy of the group

>>89033549
I thought his stand was slowly turning into [La Cucaracha] act 2.

>>89034479
Maybe Killinger saves him from certain death during the final stage and he vows to take up the cause in earnest because of it as he begins assisting the other nobody who takes office.

Who is Mr. Nobody's VP anyway? Is that important?

>>89036713
Its final form should resemble La Cucaracha act 2

>Who is Mr. Nobody's VP anyway? Is that important?
I don't know, isn't that Killinger's position?

>>89029008
who are the candidates to win the Star?

>>89038152
Anyone still in the race in the final leg is a candidate for wining the wishing star. They just need to reach it first.

I'd say Jack and Old Jack should help Wander and Sylvia get ahead of The Wizard who is preoccupied with fighting Super Serenity.

If Sam and Max are still around, they might give up on the Wishing Star when they see a great evil threatening Earth that they feel the need to help fight.

The final leg can be divided into two groups:
Those who stay and fight Stardust, the Super Wizard
and
Those who continue the race to prevent The Wizard from obtaining the Wishing Star.

>>89036791
I thought Killinger was just an aide to Mr. Nobody, not his VP.

>>89038542
Well, he seems the closer to Nobody, and the most knowledgeable on both the Corpse and the Wishing Star.

>>89038628
But he's not the VP.

I guess Mr. Nobody's VP could be another Nobody.

Did the thumbnail spook any of you guys yet?

>>89043015
I like the ideia of the alternate Nobodies being the new Dada, but having the old ones here is good too.

I think we should save the alternate Nobodies for the finale, when the real Nobody dies, so the alternates can keep his plan going. Or at least use them for a ohshit moment when they think they've killed the real Nobody. Maybe they're simply higher members of the Dada party.

>>89044779
alternate Nobody, He can only keep one of his alt-versions at a time.

I remember there was an idea about an assassin (Frank?) trying to kill Nobody, he seemingly succeeds but then is revealed that an alternate Nobody took the bullet for the main one.

Which members of the race staff end up being prisoners of Tulio?

>>89049805
TOM for sure.
No idea who else since the Iron Vulture doesn't crash.

Who do you think should be caught?

>>89049993
Besides a group of background racers that are gonna be tear apart by Tulio and company onboard his barge, I'm not sure. Melusine stays in the air and I don't recall any other staff member being mentioned so far (unless you count Serenity among them since she follows TOM around)

>>89050421
Perhaps during that part of the story, Serenity is prevented from abandoning ship by one of the Dadaists to keep her from being in danger in accordance to the deal TOM made with Mr. Nobody.

I would say yes, but where do we fit them in at?

>>89052675
awaiting in the checkpoints perhaps?

>>89050421
We should probably search for unused characters in the Stand Doc and see if there are any we could use as racers, even if just as cameos or one-off characters.

We should make a list of them too. We were supposed to be merciless in killing these characters off, so might as well have a bigger cast than what we have now.

>>89053008
>We should probably search for unused characters in the Stand Doc and see if there are any we could use as racers
I suggested that the other day, right now it feels that the same characters are meeting each other every time, with an unspecified number of no-names in the background running and dying with no one noticing it. It would be good if there are more clashes between racers before they reach a checkpoint

>>89052756
Those world be reporters.

>>89054382
What kinds of clashes do you want to see on the way to Aberdale? How many can we fit into the desert trek before it feels bloated?

And good luck not dying in the night, thread.

>>89058324
I don't know, is it?

Is there anything else we need to cover fight wise?

>>89057086
The rules only let them do that during the race.

Hmm, does the final leg have a time limit, or does it just end once the Wishing Star is captured? How are the other placements (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.) determined for that leg of the race?

>>89060120
my main gripe is that if a racer becomes prominent in a later part there is no mention of him and what he was doing before that point, is there any of the current racers who needs to be fleshed out?

I don't think it should have a time limit. Maybe after the Wishing Star is captured, the goal is reentry to the Earth.

Of course I can't do that for every character since new additions are constantly being thrown in after the introduction was already written.

I was thinking that at one point in Tulio's arc, we could show Karnage and his crew fending of the Big Guy Nobody and trying to estabilize the Iron Vulture before repairing it and reenter into chilean territory.

>>89063504
Do they throw him off the airship without a parachute?

File: Aconcagua.jpg (57KB, 800x600px) Image search: [Google]

57KB, 800x600px

>>89064577
I was considering tossing him into one of the airship's engines. Since he comes from a dimension full of big guys, he may have the ability to crash the Iron Vulture by merely being there, and killing him allows the crew to take back the control of the airship before it crash into the Aconcagua, the highest mountain in america (pic related is from a disney short)

>>89064774
I say we have Don Karange flashback to where we last saw him before the racers had to jump ship, he should flashback to it after he's picking up the racers.

Maybe Jack asks him how he recovered.

Maybe they crash Big Guy Nobody into Aconcagua.

File: Iron Vulture.jpg (23KB, 400x274px) Image search: [Google]

23KB, 400x274px

>>89065736
so the outline would be like this:
>Mirror Master drops Big Guy Nobody inside the ship
>Big Guy Nobody is found by someone as he starts sabotaging the ship
>The crew of the Iron Vulture loses control of the ship and it crosses the Chile-Argentina border
>The chilean troops stationed in the mountains detect the Iron Vulture and open fire on it
>The racers and some of the race staff are force to abandon the Iron Vulture in dropships
>TOM is among the people that jump from the ship, someone forces Serenity to stay in the ship under orders of Nobody
>Tulio is informed of the incident and he movilizes his troops, including his personal flying barge, to the north of the capital
>Tulio turns the race into a manhunt broadcasted to all the nation, the racers must escape from his army
>Meanwhile, Karnage leads a group of his air pirates to face the Big Guy Nobody as they go in a collision course with the Aconcagua

>>89066566
Yes.

Would it be better to show Don Karnage's fight as it happens alongside the plight of the racers, or save it for a flashback after someone asks how he was able to come back for them?

>>89066622
both are fine for me, the flashback could fill the portion between Chile and Brazil

when is Emperor zombie going to be introduced? when the racers are found by the army or inside Tulio's airship?

>>89068401
Just pitch when you think he should be introduced and then we'll see how the story develops once we get to his introduction.

>>89068932
I was thinking he could either be the officer that greets the racers and tells them Tulio is "hosting" the race, or appear in the barge when Tulio summons him to showcase his latest experiments and stolen tech.

>>89069161
Maybe Condorito is the one who greets them.

>>89069737
Then Condorito is leading the ground forces, while Tulio is overseeing everything from his airship and Zombie is at Tulio's side licking his boots.

>>89070522
Zombie is a professional boot licker (man servant) after all.

And it was suggested before the Condorito is the general for Tulio's army.

I suppose Zombie isn't someone they can kill, so how do they deal with him?

>>89071764
arresting him or shoving him somewhere where he can't escape

>>89071914
Arresting would be the option least expected since anyone reading would probably guess he gets buried again.

I'm all for him getting arrested and pumped for information about the other pillar elements.

>>89073077
Who is gonna capture him and interrogate?

>>89074170
Strickland?

I'm not willing to solidify anything that far off from where we are right now in the story.

>>89074484
If is Strickland, one of their agents should say that he's gonna have a room next to Joshua, who is still covered in splinters from the monsters in Aberdale

>>89074757
Is Strickland going to have some role in part 8 where anyone they have in their custody gets brought up?

>>89075837
Currently there is no mention of Strickland in part 8

>>89076264
Well I'm sure they'll show up in it eventually.

I'm getting really tied of not having time to work on this.

Last bump before bed.

Any ideas for the Strickland's Style master that appears in Aberdale?

>>89081423
Someone Hank would've not hated.

>>89082254
so, is someone that has been around since part 2?

>>89082359
Maybe Rick Dicker, he had a cameo in part 6.

He's even older now.

>>89082550
He's even older now
And he is still active thanks to the practice of Style. Heck, he may be older than he looks.

I want Condorito to become the president of Chile for some time (while Mafalda's out somehow) just so we can have a fun Chilean Trump allegory.

I was expecting the whole region to go full Warring States period with the power vacuum left by Tulio and all the advanced weaponry up for grabs

>Chilean Trump
life imitates art imitates life

>>89083244
He is set up to try to take power as soon as Tulio is dead, but he gets killed as well before he can take power for himself.

I have no idea what the aftermath of Chile looks like once the racers exit the country.

How should Pym fuck up the first time he tries using pacing?

>>89084802
He mess up his own rhythm? at that point he is unable to see and interact with panels

When Jack encounters the skeleton dogs, he could briefly remember Courage and fear that he may become an undead, since Courage once got in contact with the God Bone.

>>89084856
Would that be like him becoming blind and deaf for a while?

>>89088522
that's one of the things we need to define about Pacing, right now when a user disrupts someone else rhythm, it allows for unlikely events to happen more easily.

>>89088672
So when the user fails, then it rebounds on them by hitting them with what they were trying to do?

>>89077565
The cult will get his hands on some of the WB tech, including the monster from the pit, Strickland may get involved while investigating the disapparition of former WB assets. Maybe the Church of Gaming is associated with a front company that procures the technology for them (perhaps it conducts industrial espionage on Strickland).

Which characters (besides the Wizard) end up in Daffy's villa?

>>89091234
Hex goes there to claim the bounty on Snake-Eyes.
Pym follows Hex.
Dick Dastardly also ends up there and plays a song on the piano.

Not sure who else, there's probably a little more about that section on the doc.

>>89089836
the backfire could also accelerate/slow down his own rhythm for a brief time

Found this guys in a chilean movie, they could fill the role of the mutated pillarmen (they are mooks of a villain from easter island)

>>89094959
So it throws him out of sync with the narrative of the world?

>>89098252
yeah. A more skilled user of Pacing could even use that effect against his enemies

>>89098354
So that's called using a disruption on yourself.

>>89098884
I was thinking that the user would try to interrupt his opponent's own attempt at disruption, but it could also be used in the way you described it.

>>89098963
A disruption on the user to let them bend around panels?

Bumping before bed.

>>89100248
the users of Pacing can permeate the surrounding area with their rhythm and ajust other people rhythm, but we haven't considered the possibilty of them ajusting their own rhythm for defensive and offensive purposes

>>89050650
>Serenity is prevented from abandoning ship by one of the Dadaists
which one? Mirror Master abandons ship after dropping the Big Guy, so we have Aunt May, Doctor Destiny (assuming he is still around at that point) and Melusine, does Karnage counts as one of Nobody's lackeys?

>>89103307
It should be someone who knows the bigger plan, so that rules out Don Karnage.

I'd say Mirror Master or Doctor Destiny.

>>89104012
Mirror Master escapes once he brings the saboteur on board, it could be Doctor Destiny, he needs more scenes after all (and we need to find a way to showcase his Stand)

>>89104236
Mirror Master is able to come and go as he pleases though.

He showed up on the Iron Vulture and left through the same means, there's nothing stopping him from coming back again since I think he travels through reflective surfaces.

>gets the job done as your boss told you

heh, sucks to be him

>>89091365
would it be a problem for Hex to claim the bounty on Snake Eyes now that he is all messed up after absorbing part of Daffy's identity?

>>89105260
He can get out just the same.

Maybe he helps fight the guy who he brought there because Mr. Nobody just wanted the racers to get out over Chile, not fucked over his buddy, Don Karnage, in an irreversible way.

>>89106212
The Wizard absorbs those bits of identity out of him before hand, that's how Snake-Eyes is defeated.

>>89106267
will he return to normal or remain a fucked up half-duck, half-man thing?

>>89106717
He'll turn back to normal when the identity bits are removed.

Or turn back to normal with chunks missing from him.

He's just that handsome.

Does he has charisma on top of his 「TRTN」?

By the way, who is gonna deliver the killing blow on him? one of his prisoners?

There is a mention of Clifford's grave in the Fantastic Island section, what will happen there?

>>89111197
Does he have charisma in his source material?

>>89112276
Don't know yet, not to that part yet. If you have a suggestion, post it.

I wouldn't say that, but his nephew did fainted over when he became handsome

>>89114360
I like it.

Do we have any parts in the story where they need to wear disguises?

>>89117049
Why would they need to wear disguises? does Nobody (or someone else) tries to frame them for something?

>>89117258
In Spain, trying to avoid Skud and DAVE while working to get a new ride.

>>89118470
Alright, there's not many things planned for that section right now.
I feel that Hex and Pym are gonna end far behind in the leaderboard of this leg.

>>89118740
That is the tentative plan right now. They come in way after the leaders for that leg of the race.

>>89119086
Should they arrive near the time limit or among the first 30 racers?

>>89119400
Closer to the time limit I'd think.

Besides Hex and Pym hunting Shocker, should we show what the other racers are doing between Aberdale and Nowhere?

>>89119887
We do with all the other side stories that take place between Aberdale and CN City.

We can't focus on what every prominent character is doing on every step of the race, we'd never get to the next leg if we did that.

>>89119917
I was wondering why a group of racers (Mojo Jojo, Yellowjacket, Sam and Max, among others) were there when Hex handed over Shocker

>>89120053
They took similar routes and ended up in the middle of Nowhere.

It's easy to get lost there, so they were probably getting their barrings in Nowhere City.

I'm hoping things will get clearer as we approach those parts.
I'm also hoping next week I'll finally have time to get back to writing this since it looks like it's pretty stalled right now with only some light conversation.

Bumping before bed.

Morning bump

>>89124166
I'll also give it one of those.

where was Max buried? If it was in the Old Country, Goofy should pay a visit to his tomb

>>89119487
What should be the prize of the Paris checkpoint?

>>89125439
Where was the Goof family grave located?

>>89126502
I don't know, the only thing mentioned in part 5 is that he was buried next to his mother, and I'll assume that Goofy and Max lived in the US before moving to the Old Country.

>>89126663
Or that Max's mom was from the Old Country.

>>89128060
Could work, there is no info about Max mom as far as I know. Why they moved to the Old Country in the first place?

>>89129245
Goofy was helping Micky with a business venture there, so was Donald.

It's part of Donald's backstory in part 5.

>>89129988
I thought it was a venture of Scrooge that Donald was supervising. Anyway, which came first? his deal with Hades or his search for the corpse parts in South America?

We are leaving Mickey's fate unanswered, is it?

>>89130362
It was a business venture by Scrooge that brought the three of them to the Old Country.
The WB took over the House of Mouse or demolished it or whatever.
Donald remained in the Old Country while Goofy and Micky went missing.
Goofy went to South America to look for some legendary thing to help fight the supernatural powers of the WB; while there, he learned of his son's predicament and made the deal with Hades which killed him in exchange for the demons not owning his son's soul.

No, we never learn of where Micky is. No one has found a place for him in the story.

So, Goofy learns about what happened to Max in part 5, Tanya leads him to his tomb and that's when the flashback of him looking for the corpse parts in south america starts, how did he learn about the existence of the Hero's corpse?

>>89131799
It's a legend.

Like how there is an evil mask that grants the wearer power or an ancient race of super beings, there are some legends that every culture seems to know even if they call them by different names.

Goofy probably went in search of "The Hero" who was "last seen" in South America. He might not have ever known about The Hero having died since he was never part of the WB and didn't know they had an arm of his corpse.

>>89130362
>>89130458
I think it would be better to not to have Mickey show up much, if at all. Like how Superman is explicitly mentioned. Maybe since he's also a huge icon he could have some connection to The Hero, but I don't know.

>>89132523
I wasn't going to have him show up. He was one of Donald and Goofy's friends who they assumed the WB killed when they destroyed their club.

who is sponsoring the race in the refugee town?

>>89133953
ACME?

They also sponsored the race or at least provided prizes for those who got to CN City first.

Should Mean Angel be fought in Rio or in the road to Cape Suzette?

What's the most important thing to do right now?

>>89136194
Rio, so that way Crazy Jane gets the skull sooner.

>>89136217
Well, The next thing to do is the exchange between Hex and Pym about Pacing, we could also polish some of the details about that ability. Besides that, there is filling the missing parts of the plot outline.

>>89136514
Yeah, the next scene to be written out is of Pym and Hex in Pym's vehicle catching up to the other racers and Hex telling Pym about Pacing.

Does he tell him about it like how we've been talking about it, or does he use metaphors to explain it?
What is Pym's first lesson on using Pacing? What specific training does Pym need to do to begin to see the STAR ley-lines?

>>89138284
>Does he tell him about it like how we've been talking about it, or does he use metaphors to explain it?
Hex is a down to earth cowboy, I don't expect him to use a bunch of complex terms to explain it, he may not even know the full nature of his ability.

>>89138436
He should know enough to explain it. Maybe he mentions having learned it by studying some other technique.

>Pacing requires one to understand that there is a natural flow that govern the motion of things, known as "Narrative"
So, Pym needs to start observing stuff and notice that they follow a set pattern, the question is how he manages to see the narrative after that.

>>89140001
Hex should mention that he learned all that he knows about Pacing by himself.

>>89141791
So is pacing a skill that isn't a unified teaching?

Certain characters pick up on it due to natural affinity and develop it to an extent where they can see the STAR ley-lines?
Maybe Hex has fought a number of STYLE and MELODY users over the years and Pacing is him working out a way to reverse engineer it.

Other characters have also developed this skill, but in different ways.

Maybe battle experience?

>>89142892
That's the best way to describe it; Hex says that he lived an interesting life a couple of times in the doc, and facing similar situations over and over may have allowed him to understand how things will naturally unfold. Other characters would have learned to use the Pacing from a more traditional way, like how Style was passed down from teacher to apprentice before Strickland started imparting it (if such teachers exist for Pacing, of course).

>>89143298
So Hex's first lesson to Pym is to watch the race, notice patterns, and see what happens next?

>>89145728
After some time, Pym would be seeing events seconds before they happen, then Hex points out that he is starting to read the narrative (if he knows the name of the concept). That would be the first step in his teaching, the second lesson should be how to control his own rhythm.

>>89146746
We still need to work out how Hex teaches him. Like what actions he has to do to begins to see things coming.

And a bump before bed.

>>89150132
what if he needs to apply this foretelling ability on himself in order to unlock the ability to use his own rhythm? once he sees what are his more likely actions, he understands that he is also governed by a narrative

>>89136278
Then the caribbean stage is about Hex and Pym running from a berserker Crazy Jane (and maybe V)?

>>89151910
So how does he do that then?

>>89153252
No idea, we haven't planned that far ahead.

We still need to establish that Rorschach and V are working together. I guess that will come to light at CN City.

>>89154715
>I guess that will come to light at CN City
Well, their first appearance together is in CN City, it's also the part where Rorschach becomes relevant (along with Spain, where he is killed)

bumping with a suggestion from /trash/

>>89156701
he's going to appear in this part, in the european section if I'm not wrong

>>89155733
In CN City they need to swap information.

Should that be Rorschach proper introduction? His first meeting with V in the story or him trying to knock some sense into Pym I mean.

He wouldn't know about the corpse until after talking with V I think, so that would need to come before the scene in the bar.

So after Rorschach gets to Cn City he could say something like
>Commandos of Confusion careening about the corridors of CN City.
To get V to come to him so they can share information.

Up to that point he'll have been just a background racer.

>>89157055
yeah, I don't see where else he could fit unless he is conducting an investigation during the checkpoints, and CN City is where he finally exchanges information with V. Should he have another role between that part and Spain?

>>89157749
Yeah, don't know what though.

Does Rorschach have any special abilities in this?

>>89157973
Not that I'm aware of, though there is an old Stand suggestion for him in the doc.

>>89156809
Think we can include the [Kidz Bop] ideia too?

>>89158774
I think I'd like him better stand-less in this.

The real crazy shit with stand doesn't kick in until they're going into Europe. Well, the crazy shit that Pym and Hex encounter anyway.

>Vehicle: Ballad of Thunder Road (A modified semi cab, visually reminiscent but legally distinct from any other famous semi cabs)
>Appearance: ｢DIESEL ON MY TAIL｣ appears as a large muscular humanoid with blue skin and spiky black hair. The Stand's head is disproportionate to the gargantuan limbs that it possesses, which are covered in exaggerated veins to display physical prowess. The Stand also appears to be wearing studded leather pants, wristbands, and silver boots.
Abilities: ｢DIESEL ON MY TAIL｣ has the ability to inflict massive damage through physical contact, be it punches, kicks, or stomps from his massive feet. The Stand is able to cover great distances in a single leap, and is powerful enough to inflict massive damage to a vehicle with a single punch. While simplistic in nature, ｢DIESEL ON MY TAIL｣ is an exceedingly powerful combatant that can prove fatal in close quarters combat. The Stand also has the unfortunate side effect of ｢'TIS SWEET TO BE REMEMBERED｣, wherein the user forgets much of their own identity, to the point where they simply copy the style and mannerisms of others in order to eventually murder & replace them.
>Destructive Power: A
>Range: C
>Speed: B
>Precision: C
>Durability: B
>Developmental Potential: D
>Suggested Role: Thomas was the protagonist of Diesel, the single-issue Western plagiarism of Jojo that is only noteworthy because it was so brazen in its theft. Thomas can serve as a minor threat that serves as an examination of the dangers of following an ideal blindly or of lacking a self-driven goal, or he can simply be a lackey of Mr. Nobody, who sees ｢PAINT IT BLACK｣ as an opportunity to finally escape the cycle of emulation and elimination.

It feels like we just keep adding in more and more characters.

Before killing him, DAVE could copy Rorschach's memory with his Stand so he can inform the Dada party about how much he discovered about their plans (and the existence of a second investigator). With his last breath, Rorschach mutters an alliteration to summon V once the assassins leave the place.

Speaking of V, there is a example of his Stand ability from when Robotman and Crazy Jane were the protagonists, are we gonna reuse that scene when V sides with Nobody?

>>89164461
Yes, to both suggestions.

After V finds his body and says his farewells, Hex and Pym should also come across the body, which is used as bait to lure them in.
