The sun rose another day on the planet known as PNF-404... In a location known as "Wistful Wilds", an humanoid with an astronaut outfit was leading creatures known as Chaosmins accross the multitudes of trees which constituated the area. These creatures were collecting wood, for some kind of project.
The humanoid, whom face was always hidden by his helmet, was wondering what his second-in-command, Rumbles, meant by "Wild Reserve"... What was described to him sounded like a Zoo, so that is what the entitiy named as Captain Chaos was going to build...
There was a war coming, but Rumbles was adamant that this "Reserve" was essential to the survival of a multitude of species if the war was going to be that bad.
The Chaosmin, which were a subpecies of Pikmins with sharp teeth, were therefore finishing the collection of wood... Today, it was decided that no trees would be cut down, only wood that was already on the ground would be collected.
Things were going as planned, until Chaos saw some trees fall down which was against the orders. The humanoid ordered the closer troops to continue what they were doing to go see what the whole insubordination was about.
When Captain Chaos reached the area with fallen tree, he didn't find any troops... He found something even weirder...
In front of him was some kind of town... Bigger than any of the bases of the other commanders he knew about. This couldn't have been built in one day... The town was surrounded by a moat, big fortified walls and contained a gigantic castle. As Chaos looked at the ground and noticed that it looked more or less broken in the limit between the forest and this weird town, the drawbridge lowered, revealing some kind of human soldiers wearing iron armor... Chaos tought that humans were extinct on PNF-404, so he looked for any detail that was off and noticed pointy ears... Humans were not supposed to have pointy ears...
Hylian Soldier: "STOP RIGHT THERE! WHERE ARE WE AND WHERE DID YOU BRING THE PRINCESS?"
Captain Chaos: "Princess? I don't know of any princess. With that said, you are the ones trespassing on my territory. If what you want is was, then you must know that I am ready for it. Now, you will..."
Before Chaos could finish asking questions, he noticed the sky darkening and looked up towards the sky to see something he recognized... A huge spherical object. It was far above the atmosphere, far from the planet, but was so big that it could be seen from PNF-404, even during the day. As Chaos noticed that the space station known as "The Destructor" was coming back, he looked in the distance, behind the castle, to see a gigantic black orb appear, then transform into some kind of volcano. Something was definitely wrong.
Chaos pointed to the sky.
Captain Chaos: "Look... I have no idea what is happening, but I know this thing can detroy the planet... We'll have to work together even if we don't know each other... Do you understand?"
The Hylian soldiers looked at the sky, while also seeing the gigantic orb appear behind the forest, then transforming part of it into what seems to be an icy mountain. They nodded and invited Captain Chaos into their town...
*****
Worlds are being taken by a mysterious force to be fused to the planet known as PNF-404, which is threatened by a planet destroying space station... Will your destiny be entertwined with the one of this planet?

Oh and one thing I just thought about.
It would solve some issues if you tell me wether your characters KOs or Kills by default.

Gonna sign a full 3 characters up over time, starting with the first prompt.
Character: Lazarus
Vitcon Origin: Legend of Zelda: Explorer's Dream
True Origin: Vitcon original, LoZ themed
Abilities:As a Lizalfos he's got the usual traits of his species such as being fast, good at jumping and swimming, and resistant to heat but vulnerable to cold. He's also skilled with both a Boomerang Sword and a bow with Shock Arrows.
World Snatched: Yes.
Symbol of Hope: That one Zora he teamed up with... I think his name was Vaikau? That guy. They seemed to get along pretty well, which gives Lazarus hope of their two species as a whole reconciling.
Fighting For: "Monster" rights. Lazarus figures that if he can make a name for himself as a hero then people might finally forgive the various races that once served Ganon.
KOs when possible against anything sentient and not blatantly "I'll kill innocent people if you let me live" evil. How that works when he's wielding weapons... I dunno, probably best not to think about it. Victories by forfeit or retreat also work.

You know... This is gonna be really REALLY interesting, since this is gonna mix Explorer's Dreams Hyrule where Hylians are aware some monsters have free will with Paper Smash Hyrule for which that isn't a reality at all.

Next up is Holly, my planned DnD character. Since she's a newcomer I'll be including a description as well.
Character: Holly
Description: While Holly is a fairly average height for a pixie, at just shy of one foot this makes her incredibly small compared to most other races. She has bright red short hair resembling the color of the berries that grow on the plant she's named after along with green eyes and wings. Her usual attire consists of a short dark green sleeveless dress made of leaves (the top half is open in the back to let her wings through while the skirt goes about halfway to her knees) and a matching pair of ankle-high boots with a thin wooden piece in the sole, as well as an oak staff used as a Druidic Focus as well as a weapon (albeit one that's only really that good against enemies her size).
Vitcon Origin: Newcomer, but planned for the potential Vitcon DnD game
True Origin: Original character
Abilities Summary: In addition to the normal abilities of a Circle of the Moon Druid (Druidic magic, Wildshape, etc) Holly has a few racial abilities. She's resistant to magical charms and immune to magic-induced sleep, can cast the Druidcraft and Dancing Lights cantrips at will as well as a level 2 invisibility spell (must target herself), and is able to fly as a nonmagical ability thanks to her wings (flight speed is 30 feet, standard hovering height is up to 5 feet).
World Snatched: Yes, specifically the Material Plane rather than the Feywilds (unless you want both).
Biggest Fear: Holly's upbeat and friendly personality is partially a mask to hide her insecurity. She's afraid of being hated by everyone she knows, a fear made that much worse by a recent mishap.
Tragedy: A recent prank snowballed horribly out of control. Thankfully no one was seriously injured, but Holly was temporarily banished to the Material Plane until the repairs are finished. In truth this was mainly just to get her out the way (her constant apologizing and trying to help was only slowing things down), but to her it's a possible reaffirmation of her fears. To make matters worse now that the Material Plane has been snatched away and joined with a different world returning home would be physically impossible anyways...
It's up to you how features limited by long rests like spell slots and Wild Shape work and if spells need to be prepared, but for frame of reference the homebrew race sheet I used for her says 2nd level Invisibility can be cast once per long rest.

I'll say Long Rest = 1 Scenario.
As for spell casting, unless it's something that's specifically says it take a full turn to cast, your spells will be "instant".
Note that I will use a logic system for who acts first, so casting spells will still have an impact.
Example:
Malefio runs towards the enemy to hit it with his staff
Rachel shoots the enemy with her bow
Malik casts a light attack spell
Enemy dodges first, grabs a random rock and throws it
Rachel will attack first, since she doesn't have to move to attack, while Malefio runs towards it.
The enemy will dodge Rachel's attacks, since they're both the first to act.
Malefio will then reach the enemy and hit it with his staff while the enemy grabs the rock and throws it at whoever it's target is.
Malik will then attack last since he had to cast.
I hope this all makes sense

Character: Sigrid
Vitcon Origin: Halloween Character Contest
True Origin: See above
Abilities Summary: Valkyries such as Sigrid channel the powers of the Gods, conferring stat-boosting blessings to themselves and their allies (targets user+one ally at the same time) and sacrificing these stat boosts to perform powerful skills. The most powerful skill is Fenrir's Rage, a furious barrage of lance attacks on random foes in a berserk state which scales in power to the number of blessings spent. A more detailed list of skills can be provided on demand.
World Snatched: Yes, see below for details
Rival: Yrsa, an old friend and sparring partner. They joined the Valkyries at the same time and are evenly matched in strength, but where Sigrid is serious and reserved Yrsa is loudmouthed and brash. As a fellow Valkyrie, Yrsa uses the same abilities as Sigrid.
Achievement: Mastery of Fenrir's Rage, and thus full acceptance as a Valkyrie rather than a trainee. Coming from a long line of Valkyries she considers this her legacy, but one she can't relax about just because she's made some decent progress.
As for the world Sigrid comes from, Nord is a land mainly inspired by Norse (go figure) mythology. Since only women can become Valkyries they've developed a Matriarchal society with a heavy focus on strength as a way to survive against the dangerous creatures that live there. As for those creatures you're welcome to make up anything you want provide it ties into Norse mythology in some way or another, although I'd advise against using the Jormunds (massive snakes) mentioned in the character contest as they're supposed to be nigh-unstoppable juggernauts named after the World Serpent Jörmungandr for good reason. If you really want to use one without making it seem less powerful than it's hyped up to be you'll either want to provide some Cannon fodder NPCs to help since otherwise we're looking at something that's superboss material.

First I want to remind everyone that the deadline to sign-up is January 2nd, so you still all have way more than enough time to sign-up.
Second, I might make it between 1 to 3 fights per scenarios, because with me needing to have every character be at every boss, I dont think I can make an overarching plot with only 1 fight per scenarios everytime.
Third, Fuzz, your three characters are accepted.

Oof, meant to say he's from Faye's world.
The original concept was all three form the same place, but just having Emmaline and Cogman from the same place works too.

So Fay and Cog from the same world Emmaline from one Or you want them all from the same world? It's pretty important to decide. |
