Hi all, I'm excited to bring you all my first post and thread in the DDB forums. I've watched things unfold in the PbP threads for a time and it's been really fascinating, so I figured it's time I stop watching and try to get into playing!
With that sentiment, and my recent (light) obsession with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (I'm on part 4 right now), andthis JJBA rules system for 2014 5e, I figured I'd gauge interest in perhaps running a game. No prior knowledge of JJBA is required (though it might help), and don't worry about knowing too much about it because this would be more like a fanfiction; a totally separate story using the setting and power system(s) of JoJo's. With that being said, the linked rules includes classes for Hamon (The Ripple), Stands, and The Spin (which I probably wouldn't use because I don't know much about it), and they're all on the table. If you look in the Classes section, it also lists Non-Supernatural Classes, and characters would likely start with those (as they'd be normal people) and later obtain supernatural abilities (like Hamon or Stands), and then they'd be able to multiclass appropriately. As for setting, JoJo's uses the real world, so I'd likely pick a time period and region of the world and we'd go from there. Keep in mind, it's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, so really anything could happen.
To make it clear, this is an interest thread, so please don't post character ideas here. Reply if you'd want to join or message me directly. If there's enough interest I can either convert this to an actual recruitment thread or make a new one. I don't have a preference, timeframe, or deadline for when I'd like to start this, so please don't feel rushed to reply. Take a look at the rules since they're decently different from standard 5e and make the call that's best for you!
Thanks for your time and attention, happy adventuring!
Yes, that's Dio, the main villain of part 1. The early power system included vampirism and some variations which are pretty prevalent even into the later parts.

Hmmm... Interesting but i've only watched liked 4 episodes of the first season. One of them had a vampire like guy in them.
Cats go Moo!

I'll have to rewatch them, there's free episodes on You Tube TV, I think.

I'm interested. Keep me posted.
Will do!
I also love your name, great play on words.
What is the JJBA system?
Nice! That would be an interesting campaign for certain and for true!! 8^)

@HaydenWizard
Do you mean the rules system that modifies 5e rules to fit the world of JoJo's? Or like the actual power systems of JoJo's?
