i know very little about Jojo’s Bizarre adventure, but the magic system intrigues me and so I want to be involved :>
also, stands are named after songs, right? Usually?
Correct! Though sometimes in noncanon material they get named after other stuff like movies. We keep it to songs though
Okay!
it is time for me to get scheming!
I can finally use all of those random theatre songs I know!
The Whole Being Dead Thing, A Little Priest, Watch Your Step...
The whole being dead thing was one of the first that came to my mind!
also Revolting Children, We Both reached for the Gun, and HAUS OF HOLBEIN Don’t lose Ur Head.
Any of the ones from beetlejuice are just absolutely amazing, I know We Both Reached for the Gun, but I don’t know what it’s from. I’ve got some ideas, I might actually make one from Thunder by Taylor Swift, even if I hate her.

We both Reached For The Gun is from Chicago the Musical, as is the famous Cell Block Tango.
the ones I’m leaning towards are We Both Reached For The Gun, Revolting Children, and The Whole Being Dead thing.

Stand ability- It’s abilities are directly related to electricity, but as something like Red Hot Chili Peppers absorbs electricity from outward sources to increase its power, Thunderstruck instead amplifies pre existing sources of electricity. Say if the user were to run his hands together a bunch to create a small static shock, Thunderstruck could amplify that shock to become much more powerful. It also have other abilities similar to Red Hot Chili Peppers, though instead of allowing someone to move through electrical currents, it can expend electricity to improve the user in terms of speed or other aspects.
Don’t know what I’ll do for the appearance yet, might just make it another item stand, what do you think of the stand so far?

Yo, I'm Himy (He/him) not as active as I use to be, but I'm here from time to time. I don't got much else to say.
"Like a soon to be broken man once said: You're either perfect, or you're not me."
”Be not defeated by the rain. Be not hindered by the wind. Bested by neither winter snow or summer heat.”
Okay so, for the new A Bizarre Adventure thread (or a potential rebrand, who knows!) what are people thinking? Obviously I had that initially idea but I’m fully happy to adapt or even abandon it depending on what people would like. I’ve already seen Himy say that they’d like an open world, and Jobah is interested in carrying on the Sea Of Stone continuity (might be a bit confusing for new people since it isn’t canon whatsoever) but I’m happy to go with whatever you guys are up for!
I don’t know for the thread, but I did feel like asking about who is going to be the protagonist. I actually do have a little bit of an idea for a character myself as the protag, but that depends entirely on if anyone else doesn’t want to be the main character. I do like the Rio part being close, but I do want to do another Sea of Stone next part.
I don’t think there should be a protagonist or anything. I like the idea of a Golden Wind esq thread, but having a protagonists makes things feel a bit to rigid. IMO, you should be able to just do whatever you want, with the looming feel of an overarching story.

"Like a soon to be broken man once said: You're either perfect, or you're not me."
”Be not defeated by the rain. Be not hindered by the wind. Bested by neither winter snow or summer heat.”
History: Born as a genetic descendant of Dio while he inhabited Johnathan’s body, he is by technicality, a Joestar in the same boat as Gio. Both and raised in Rio, his mother died not long after giving birth to Joshua. Despite this Joshua lived a happy life, being taken in by his godfather, who unbeknownst to him growing up, was a member of the cartel. During his younger years Joshua unlocked, and quickly learned how to use his stand, ‘Pressure Drop’. He was imprisoned at the age of fourteen for taking part in Illegal street fights, though he was quickly moved to a real jail after escaping by breaking through the walls of the Juvie. He has recently escaped again, with some help from his godfather’s cartel contacts, and is hiding out in his hometown in Rio. Currently, he’s eighteen years old. He would occasionally break out from prison to do more street fights to provide money for his community, helping where he can before getting arrested again.
Appearance- He’s a tanned man of above average height, being a Joestar he’s naturally fit with long black hair tied into braids. He’s commonly seen on the occasions he is seen still wearing his chains and his prison outfit, though the sleeves of it are torn off to reveal tattoos all along his arms related to his cartel family origins. He doesn’t often talk outside of some simple phrases, though he doesn’t give out friendly smiles to everyone he knows, a softy underneath his look.
I don’t think there should be a protagonist or anything. I like the idea of a Golden Wind esq thread, but having a protagonists makes things feel a bit to rigid. IMO, you should be able to just do whatever you want, with the looming feel of an overarching story.
I mean, if we are doing the Rio idea for this one I think there should be, I certainly don’t think there should be a protag for the open world one though, but that’s just what I think.
i have a few more options for songs I’d like to make Stands around…
Mamma Mia, Sugarcloud, Uranium Suite, dancing Queen, and 🎶the room where it happens🎶
Don't know about the others, but the Room where it happens, could be a sort of building based stand, having a special effect whenever someone enters, maybe like a Demiplane sort of deal.

Local Jokester, Viber, Doctor, and Therapist, I do my best to make your day better, and if I fail I'll try again tomorrow.
"Life is like a roller coaster, and you just took your seatbelt off."
Okay, sick, if people are up for an open world, less story driven thread, I'm totally cool with that, as I can see that working really well and it's really accessible for new players. Only thing we gotta think about is its time period and setting, i.e. modern, Victorian, or even earlier then that, and wherever we're gonna have it, like a desert, jungle, city etc
Curses, I'll get to use Joshua Joestar one of these days, I will get the chance to play the main character, probably after Jobah's turn. I don't really have a preference on location or time period, other than I liked Sea of Stone despite it's whole Island to Island deal.

I mean we can definitely still have a Joestar, I'd like to try my hand at playing a main villain although they'd probably have to be quite out in the open to make use of them! I'd personally say that I definitely want it to be on land, at least, just because the seafaring style of SoS suited a campaign type set up rather than a thread, seeing as you're pretty restricted to the boat and it's difficult to introduce new people in.
I might have a think on a fresh villain idea that could work well for being out in the open, I'm in the mood for a typical, evil-for-the-sake-of-being-evil type villain, though not super over the top like Louis was (professionals have standards!) I'd also like to come up with a cool Stand power that doesn't directly play into hiding their identity like What A Wonderful World did either.
If it's going to be open world I don't think it should have a Joestar, considering the place they hold it each part. I think it should be closer to a Steel Ball Run type of deal, where it brings all the stand users together in a way that still leaves things open. As for Louis, what made him fun and interesting, at least to me, is that he was entirely over the top for no reason whatsoever. We will have to see how it goes though.

Stand name- Thunderstruck!

Oh also, here’s my idea for the Jojo -
Name: Joshua Joestar
History: Born as a genetic descendant of Dio while he inhabited Johnathan’s body, he is by technicality, a Joestar in the same boat as Gio. Both and raised in Rio, his mother died not long after giving birth to Joshua. Despite this Joshua lived a happy life, being taken in by his godfather, who unbeknownst to him growing up, was a member of the cartel.
