I think that that would be a great way to do things here! Having a common goal will give us all a main focus in our trials. Unity is most common with these things but lone wolves are also to be expected among us, since they only make things more interesting with their solo adventures and they still support the cause even though they are away from us. As far as the writers here go, if nobody wants their LBT characters to fight with LBT characters from other writers here, then they will simply never make such a threat anyway. If someone here doesn't mind that happening and makes a challenge to someone, then the the writer being challenged can simply difuse the situation if he or she wants to. It might be interesting to have a few mild physical confrontations between us using them on occasion, but only because of disagreements that will surely occur and the tempers that can follow them. Still, that is just my opinion. As far as our LBT charactes fighting outside ones, it doesn't have be bloody, gorey, decapitation in order for it to be a "fight." Look at Littlefoot and Cera's tussle after she said something about his mom in the first movie. That was a serious brawl but remained appropriate in every way. Dinosaurs are tough. Every blow won't make a deep bruise and every swipe won't make a bloody gash. I just don't see how LBT characters can simply ignore other dinosaurs who are causing chaos. We all seem to have very good talents with creativity and writing in here, with the exeption of me, who has quite a ways to go before I can write very effectively at all. But the rest of you can surely find clever, not gruesome ways for dinosaurs to defeat their kind. Otherwise, when dinosaurs attack, will we simply defend ourselves until they decide to go away? Or will we just lock them up somewhere until they decide to come to their senses? Doesn't some physical intervention seem most logical here? Once again, this is just my personal opinion which need not be taken seriously.
Now as for the descriptions of my three charcters. First of all, Jigglypuff already exists in the game and I saw no need to change her in any way, so I don't have anything to explain. However, since Jigglypuff does seem to be the least popular character in this, some of you might not be very familiar with how she goes abou doingt things. In that case, and if you are curious about her, here is the best explanation of her that I am aware of:
http://www.wikicheats.com/index.php/Super_..._WII/JigglypuffAs for Mallow, he is an official nintendo character, who, as of now, has only made an appearance in one official game: Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars for the SNES. He makes an appearance in a T rated Mario fan game called Super Mario Legends: Saga of Evil and Mallow is set to appear is Super Mario RPG DS. His physical attacks are very weak, since he is the magic user of the game, after all.
His three ways to physically attack are: punching, whacking with a stick, and clanging cymbals together which causes damage through their vibrations, his only long range physical attack.
As far as his powers:
Thunderbolt- Some weak lightning that hurts all enemies before him a little bit.
HP Rain- My favorite ability of his. Restores some health to himself or ally, although I could show a foe mercy in this fanfiction and help him out in the end of a battle. You never know how he'd repay me here...
Psychopath- Tells me how much energy my opponent has, which is very useful. It also reads my opponent's mind and tells me what he or she are thinking. That can be used in a lot of very useful and humorous ways here...
Shocker- One strong lightning bolt that hurts one enemy, similar to Pikachu's lighting summoning, although this actually hits my opponent, not myself.
Snowy- His summoning move. He summons a big snowman who attacks his enemies.
Star Rain- A star comes from the sky and starts pummeling a foe.
Since he is not from the SSB trilogy, I made him a final smash: Ultmate Power. It simply defeats all the foes he is currently facing, be it one or ten of them, including any bosses. Yeah right! I was only kidding there. Here is what I really thought: Tornado Vortex- Simply a tornado sucking a foe in and slamming him/her harshly against something when it's over, like the ground, an obstacle, or even another foe. It causes good damage and the foe is momentarily dazed.
Based off Mallow's true characteristics from the game, I give him these characteristics: Although he is almost weightless, his jumping skill is terrible, which seems to be an original combination for a SSB character. His attack is very weak and he doesn't recover fast. His only strength comes from his strong magic and small healing power.
Finally, my one LBT charcter, Rita. She is an OC, but I didn't make her, brekclub85 did. I have only a few ideas for her abilites right now, but I'll update this if I find more. Her best power is called "Wish mode" which lets her take her other form, just like Zelda/Sheik. If you read Total Drama Valley and the first part of Sharptooth Valley, you'll see that Rita was originally a sharptooth. In a separate reality Chomper wishes for, she ends up a longneck. Staying true with that, Rita starts off in battle in her original form, a young sharptooth, with fast attacks using swipes, bites, and blunt body attacks. Upon switching to her longneck form, her attacks slow down considerably but gain power. Also, in this form, she can attack from behind her as well since longnecks love fighting with their tails. A special ability of hers is Warm Smile, taken from the first part of SV. This attack is similar to Jigglypuff's sing, but can be done from more a distance and has more limited usage. She smiles warmly and it will very shortly stun one opponent; very shortly as in a few seconds. It will only work on male characters, not bosses, and the oppponent has to be looking directly at her. The only other abilty I have found for her that I'll use for sure is Sixth Sense, which she showed to have in Chapter 26 of Sharptooth Valley. Here is the excerpt:
“Redfoot’s sure been happy lately,” commented Rory, who had just been found in his hiding place by Greg. “Ever since I found those black plants for him, he’s always been in a good mood.” “Maybe he got over Screech and Thud’s deaths,” suggested Myra. But a weird feeling was coming over Rita. “What’s wrong Rita?” asked Rory. “You ever….feel like something bad’s happening around you?” “Why do you ask that?” Greg asked confused. “I…don’t know,” Rita replied honestly. She decided to ignore the feeling.
I am expounding on this ability to make it useful in the battles of this RP, while not changing the original concept completely. I'd say she can be aware of nearby danger before hand, although that doesn't mean she'll be able to react to it time. That is because she knows when she or allies will be attacked by foes nearby and ones currently being faced, but still have no idea as to the method and techniques the enemies will use in doing so.
As for her stats in sharptooth form: very light, average jumping, fast speed, weak attack. Longneck form: avergae/heavy weight, weak jumping power, slow speed, average/strong attack strength. Now I do know another ability Rita has, as shown in Chapter 28 of Sharptooth Valley. Here is that excerpt:
Rita had a hard time sleeping that night, ever since she saw Chomper’s eyes. Rita and her mother (Julie) had a special ability, similar to the one Sharptooth had: the ability to look into someone’s eyes and tell how they feel. When she saw Chomper, she could see in those red eyes that he had a great burden inside him, and that he was desperate to accomplish his goal.
I have not decided if I want to use that here or not. If I did, I would call it Soul Searching. That ability could be used on helping friends here who feel badly about something but won't show it, or seeing the good side of an enemy that really isn't so bad, or trying to see where someone good or bad is coming from with whatever they do, and could therefore be reasoned with. But since that ability would be used so rarely, I don't know if it would be worth even adding in this RP or not. If someone thinks I should, and pehaps thinks that this could be more ueseful than I think, and even has other uses for the power, please let me know, and then I probably would add it after all.
Those are my descriptions of my trio and I hope they work out nicely with our goals in this. If you think I should rethink any of my ideas on anything here, please tell me and I'll listen to whatever you say. No matter how trivial it may seem to you, I consider even small details very important. So don't be shy, I'm all ears. Later!
