Fandom Super Smash Bros. (OOC)

[GrumpySwallow]

A new thread has been made for this RP!

This RP is open and accepting! Please read the first page of this thread. It contains the story, rules, character sheets, maps, RP recap, and taken characters!

Story:​

Another tournament finished; another crisis resolved. The Super Smash Brothers prepared to return to their home realms and, at Princess Peach's eager suggestion, they agreed to reunite at the Super Smash Brothers Stadium in one year's time. Some of the Smashers, disturbed by how close to doom they came during the events of Subspace Emissary and World of Light, thought it would be wise to keep in contact. Others were simply happy at the idea of reuniting with friends new and old. After good-byes (and one or two vows of vengeance) were made, the fighters of the Super Smash Brothers returned to their home worlds.

A year has passed, and the Smash Bros. start making their way back to the Smash Realm only to find that it has changed for the worse. It feels as though the Realm is slowly breaking apart. The land is wracked with spontaneous natural (and unnatural!) disasters, and monsters seem to roam unchecked. Even more shocking, the Hands are nowhere to be seen and the Super Smash Brothers have been made into outlaws with a fine reward promised for proof of a Smasher's capture or demise!

Unbeknownst to the Super Smash Brothers, a mysterious sorcerer named Lunaris has stolen the powers of Master Hand and Crazy Hand and used them to take over the World of Trophies. But his dominion over Creation and Destruction is not complete! In order to gain full mastery over the Hands, Lunaris seeks the Pillars of Creation and the Pillars of Destruction: ten crystal shards that contain portions of the Hands' powers. The Pillars have been hidden, scattered throughout the realm. Should the sorcerer obtain all ten Pillars, his control over the once happy-go-lucky world of Nintendo will be absolute!

The Pillars of Creation are Life, Hope, Strength, Fortitude, and Imagination. The Pillars of Destruction are Death, Fear, Sorrow, Anger, and Ego. Each crystal shard contains the pure essence of the virtue or emotion associated with it. While the Pillars of Destruction are not evil in themselves, one must be of strong heart and mind to be able to possess them without falling to corruption! The Pillars of Creation have been entrusted to five guardians of Master Hand's choosing, but how Crazy Hand has chosen to hide the Pillars of Destruction remains a mystery.

Rules:​

1. This game has a 200 word minimum requirement for posts. If a player is inactive for over two weeks with no notice given, active players are free to skip that player and move the scene along at their discretion.

2. OCs are welcome, but they must fit the setting (Ex. A Pokemon Trainer OC, a Koopa OC, etc.). OCs must not have a strong, personal connection to a Canon Character, such as a long lost relative or an ex-lover. Relationships built during the course of the RP are fine. Pokemon Trainer OCs cannot own legendary Pokemon.

3. Game canon does not have to be strictly adhered to as Super Smash Bros. itself does not completely follow canon to the games each respective character comes from (Ex. Twilight Princess Zelda from SSB: Brawl and SSB4 having a Sheik alter ego). Make sure to communicate such things so that everyone is on the same page.

4. Any 3rd party Game Characters that are not in Super Smash Bros. must meet one of the following criteria:

-The character comes from a Nintendo franchise
-The character comes from a game series with a minimum of 3 Nintendo console exclusive titles. (Ex. Professor Layton)
-The game series the character comes from already has some form of representation in Super Smash Bros. such as a playable character, a Mii Fighter costume, or a trophy/sticker/spirit (Ex. Dante, Doom Slayer)

I will not accept any comic book, cartoon, or anime characters in this RP. The reason for being strict with characters is that I want this RP to remain "Super Smash Brothers" at its core, which means a heavy emphasis on Nintendo representation. This is not a free-for-all multiverse RP.

5. There are some game characters that are generally blank slates with only small hints of a personality (Ex. Link) which leave them more open to interpretation, and some characters can have different personalities between games (Ex. Cloud) or localizations (Ex. Pit). The point is, don't be rude to other players if they're not playing a character exactly how you think they should. That being said, please be reasonable when RPing Canon Characters. Even if you want try a different interpretation of a character, they should still feel like that character. This isn’t a “lolrandom” RP, unless of course “lolrandom” is actually part of the character!

6. New players are only allowed 2 characters. I may grant players permission to pick up more characters if they have shown investment in the game and the ability to handle a larger number of PCs. Canon PCs that are part of the Super Smash Brothers roster must be active in the RP. If you need help figuring out where to place a character, ask and we will help you, otherwise I will remove your claim to that character.

7. The Smash Realm is constantly changing and expanding. Feel free to make up landscapes, landmarks, and towns as you want. The only constant thing is the Stadium. It's always in the same spot.

New Challengers
OCs are listed here
​

Main Villains

Character Name: Lunaris, Master of Creation and Destruction
Race/Species: Hylian
Appearance:

Spoiler

Abilities/Powers: Lunaris is a sorcerer who generally focuses on destruction, illusion, and conjuration magics. With Master Hand and Crazy Hand sealed in his gauntlets his magical abilities has grown dramatically, though the resistance from the Hands prevents him from using their full power.
Bio: An ambitious sorcerer who is always seeking ways to obtain more power. A prodigy in sorcery, his magical abilities were already great before he captured the Hands.
Player Name: GrumpySwallow

Character Name: Kap'n Krook
Race/Species: Kremling
Appearance: Slender, with a long tail and blood-red eyes; his two front fangs are golden and he wears a black pirate long coat complete with captain's cap. A large, cruel-looking hook replaces his right hand.
Abilities/Powers: With his long and slender body, Kap'n' Krook is agile and flexible. He often uses his tail as a whip or a battering weapon in a fight. He is also a skilled swordsman and carries a pistol in his belt.
Bio: What he lacks in imposing physique, Kap'n Krook makes up for in viciousness and cunning. He strives to make a name for himself among Kremling pirates, and dreams of eventually surpassing them. His current goal is to control the waters of the Smash Realm.
Player Name: GrumpySwallow

Character Name: General Mugorl
Race/Species: Moblin
Appearance: Resembling a cross between a bulldog and a boar; tall and powerfully built, and donned in the armor of a Darknut and draped in the pelt of a lynel (both of which he defeated in battle), General Mugorl is an imposing figure among Moblins.
Abilities/Powers: General Mugorl relies on his massive size and strength, as well as his skill with the trident, which he carries with a shield.
Bio: General Mugorl is a Moblin native to the Smash Realm and leader of a massive tribe of Moblins and other Blins. Surprisingly intelligent and disciplined for a Moblin, he seeks to build a kingdom for all "Blin-kind".
Player Name: GrumpySwallow

Character Name: Odessa
Race/Species: Human
Appearance: A young woman with long curly brown hair and dark brown eyes. She wears a white peplos paired with a dark purple himation.
Abilities/Powers: A dark priestess, Odessa can conjure Underworld monsters and raise undead servants. She can also empower and heal her allies, and has great knowledge of alchemy. Besides her magic, she is skilled in the bow and staff.
Bio: Once a devout priestess of Palutena, Odessa's faith was shattered during the war among the gods. Now filled with hatred and bitterness for the gods, her goal is to bring the heavens crashing down and end the gods' reign over humans forever. She follows a new master, and leads a secret group called the Cult of Orcos.
Player Name: GrumpySwallow

Character Name: Kip
Race/Species: Koopa Troopa
Appearance: He looks like the typical Bad Koopa Troopa; he has a red shell, wears sunglasses, and spiked wristcuffs. The only real difference he has from the others is that there is one single spike sticking out of the center of his shell. The spike looks like it was glued on.
Abilities/Powers: Nothing remarkable. He can spit out a small fireball! That's something, right?
Bio: Kip is the weakest and lowest-ranking leader among Lunaris's followers. He leads a small band of Koopas and is generally considered a nuisance by everyone.
Player Name: GrumpySwallow

Others

Character Name: Gigipon aka Madame Gigi
Race/Species: Nopon
Appearance:

Spoiler: Nopon

Abilities/Powers: While Gigi doesn't look like she is capable of much, she does have access to magics (ethers in her case), but casting them does drain her quite quickly given her races minor affinity to using ether based attacks in the first place. Her two main attacks are known as Boomy-Boom Thunder and Nighty-Night Sleep, which as their names suggest, allow her to cast thunder and put others to sleep (albeit for short increments of time. Usually long enough for her to make an escape). This can only be done if she has her meteor nibbler or some other object to conduct the magic through. If such conditions are not met, she will be completely defenseless, though she does have her way with charming/manipulating others in order to do her bidding so she never finds herself in such a position. Aside from this, much like the rest of her kind, she has the ability to speak to and understand animals allowing for her to gain their trust and easily use them too.
Bio: As a Nopon who was once part of the pollen orb trade on the Bionis, Gigipon fled to the Smash Realm many years ago to avoid being caught as their crimes began to surface. She briefly went into hiding, before inserting herself into the small underground black market that existed within the world. Before long, she rose in power among them, claiming the title of "Queen of the Black Market." To go along with this, she would change her name from being simply Gigi to Gigipon in reference to the Nopon Sages. In her current position, she helps supply Lunaris' army with all the goods they need, whether that be actual materials or information.
Player Name: Ploegy

Recent Events
​

In the Jungle, Inkling was attacked by Bowser's army. Joker, Paula, Prompto, and Noctus came to the rescue, but Bowser was able to grab Inkling and leave with her. Thanks to their efforts, and the intervention of a Rathalos, Inkling was rescued and the party escaped Bowser and his army. Bowser managed to drive the Rathalos away, and he and his small fleet made their way to the Stadium. Ridley soon joined them, and they briefly talked about teaming up when they were suddenly attacked by laser-shooting satellites that resembled golden eyes. Lord Lunaris's flying citadel appeared, and the three leaders agreed to an alliance that will crush the Super Smash Brothers.

After escaping Bowser's army, Inkling, Joker, Paula, Prompto, and Noctus made their way to the Stadium only to find it overtaken by a massive army made up of members of the Mysterious Small Fry Enemy Corps, and other common enemies such as Moblins and Koopas.

Sora and Pichu escaped the Primid-infested Research Facility and Subspace Bomb Factory on the floating island. After battling the remnants of the Subspace Army and freeing the captive wildlife, they flew off the island only to crash land into the Flying Citadel-- the lair of Lord Lunaris! The two quickly made their escape by jumping off the citadel, landing in the wasteland where the Battlefield Fortress is located. There, they were found by Byleth, Professor Layton, and Luke.

Samus, Peach, and Pikachu were traveling deep into the Forest area to find the source of its corruption. They came upon an area covered in a thick miasma. The source of the miasma is the Great Deku Tree who had been wounded and corrupted by a massive stake made of dark magic. They were able to destroy the demons guarding the Great Deku Tree and remove the stake protruding from him, but the damage had already been done. Before he died, the Great Deku Tree informed the team of the Pillars of Creation and the Pillars of Destruction, portions of the Twin Hands' power that were scattered throughout the Smash Realm, and bestowed his Pillar, the Pillar of Life, upon them.

Princess Zelda, after an attempted kidnapping by a couple of hostile Miis, found herself lost in the Forest. With the assistance of the resident Pokemon, she was able to find Samus's ship. Cream the Rabbit soon joined her. Eventually, Samus, Peach, and Pikachu returned to the ship. They decided their next move would be to head for the Lake Shore as they suspected another Pillar to be hidden there. There, they found the Lake Scientist, Nurse Joy, and Big the Cat trying to help an injured but unruly Dark Pit. When things settled down, the Super Bash Sisters gathered what info they could in regards to the state of the world, and learned that Rayquaza had fallen terribly ill after the appearance of strangers a few nights prior.

Pyra/Mythra, Toon Link, and Pit reached the Alolan Islands after braving a sea full of cyclones. They disguised themselves as pirates so they could get to the Warp Pipe without attracting unwanted attention, but they were shanghaied by Kap'n Krook before they could. After a few hours' sailing, the pirate ship had come upon the legendary Ghost Ship. The companions explored the Ghost Ship in search of a treasure called the Crystal Coconut. Instead of a crystal coconut, they found themselves battling their deepest fears and confronted by past traumas until they made it to the ship's hold. There, they found a strange crystal shard that was the source of the Ghost Ship's fearful aura. Taking the shard, they returned to Krook's ship. Krook, enraged by the party's failure to obtain the Crystal Coconut, threatened to have them executed. The Smash Brothers, having enough of the Kremling, decided to fight back, and a battle on the Black Scourge commenced. During the battle, the galleon took massive damage and sank, leaving Mythra, Pit, and Toon Link aboard a dinghy in the sea.

In Console City, Snake just barely escaped a bunch of wannabe bounty hunters. After his escape, Snake and Roxas met and traveled through the underground together. After fighting their way through a horde of Minecraft zombies and other dangerous underground denizens, they emerged to the surface and found themselves at the Military Base. Sephiroth raided the Military Base to get Jenova and succeeded in retrieving her. Isabelle, who was imprisoned within the base, escaped, only to flee for her life as Sephiroth massacred the soldiers and scientists within the base, then summoned Meteor with intent on completely annihilating it. Before Meteor could make landfall, Lord Lunaris appeared on his Flying Citadel with intent on battling Sephiroth. However, Jenova ordered Sephiroth to not engage the sorcerer and the two left. Using the powers stolen from the Hands, Lunaris destroyed the Meteor.

Captain Falcon, Yoshi, Link, and Shadow met in the Swamp. As they traveled together, they reached the Jungle and found a temple to explore, but before they could get too far they were ambushed by people in masks. They were escorted to a Kokiri village hidden within the Jungle where they were then attacked by a brainwashed and mechanized Kirby. After Kirby was subdued, the village scouts returned with reports of a Demon Tree attacking people, and the spread of a cursed area of the Swamp known as the Sorrowfen. The Kokiri requested the Super Smash Brothers escort their injured brethren to the Great Fairy for healing.

Have a meme I made after watching a speedrun of Metroid Dread. I found it funny that after all that time, all that planning, and all that bloodshed, all Raven Beak managed to do was inconvenience Samus for an hour. XD

And Samus literally went Super Saiyan and literally became "METROID" for a hot few minutes - the Samus I'll utilize will represent her Post-Dread design.

 

[GrumpySwallow]

No problem!

I'm taking more inspiration for Pit's characterization from the NES/GB games, as well as the Japanese version of Uprising as I am not a fan of how the American English dub decided to bludgeon him with the stupid stick.

NES Pit freed HIMSELF from the Underworld jail by beating the crap out of his jailer with his bare hands, and traveled the world ON FOOT while fighting the Underworld Army. Alone. The only help he got from Palutena was the rinky-dink bow he started out with in the game. He made use of maps and pencils, drank booze ("Water of Life" in the US manual, the Japanese version states it's sake), and intimidated shopkeepers. However, according to the English dub of Uprising, he's illiterate, struggles to function without Palutena having to hold his hand and carefully explain everything to him, and is just so stupid that he can't intimidate anyone. The upside to this is that the 4th wall doesn't exist in KI, so it gives me the ability to have some digs at the dub in RP XD

Pit in the Japanese version of Uprising is a lot more competent. Funny enough, in the Japanese version of Uprising, including the animated shorts and manga, Pit is sometimes the more serious one who is exasperated by Palutena's ditzy-ness. I'm not saying Pit has to be a Greek philosopher or be stone-faced serious (the original Kid Icarus is a goofy game, and in the old RPs I played in back in the Brawl days my Pit was a silly and cheeky little shit) but at least make me believe he was fully capable of pulling off the feats he did in the first game!

Kid Icarus is my favorite NES game, and Pit is my favorite Nintendo character, so his dive into idiocy really bothered me.

I recently read a comment about how Smash Ultimate Pit barely smiles, and I was like, "Have y'all seen the art for NES and GB Pit? He's always had a resting bitch face!" XD It is funny that the US dub of Ultimate gives Pit very happy-sounding victory lines while his face is >: C

Dark Pit has to get that grumpiness SOMEWHERE!

Dark Pit has to get that grumpiness SOMEWHERE!

aldjaldhalslxjs I have to admit I’ve only experienced Uprising in the form of it’s dub and am honestly too horrible at video gaming in general to even think about playing the older titles myself so I’m super excited to see your take on him!!

 

[SheepKing]

For Inkling (who I’m gonna refer to as Agent Three since it’d be weird to refer to them solely by species the entire time lol) I’ll have their character be taken from a little after the events of the octo expansion dlc since the time jump between Splatoon 2 and 3 is pretty darn big. As for their characterization I’m still in the process of ironing out how I’ll want to portray Three but I think I’ll have it figured out by the time the rp starts up. Thankfully Isabelle is a much more defined character so I hopefully won’t have any issues when it comes to portraying her

 

[GrumpySwallow]

To be honest, I haven't played a single Splatoon game, so don't stress too much lol

A lot of Nintendo characters tend to be blank slates to allow the player to project their own ideas of what the character is like onto them. Link is a good example of this.

 

[SheepKing]

Lmao I’ll make sure not to stress myself too badly. Thankfully rn I’m just think about little things like if I want their appearance to be one of the alts or to just stick with the basic orange look or whether I’ll have them be completely silent/speak only in Inklish/just speak plain English, and other surface level stuff like that (okay maybe the language thing isn’t totally surface level but that’s besides the point)

 

[GrumpySwallow]

I tend to RP Toon Link silent. I've tried RPing him with dialogue once and it just didn't feel right! Outside of the occasional "'Hoy!" and "C'mon!" I just imply he spoke.

I do headcanon the characters in WW and PH to have Irish and Scottish accents.

 

[Ploegy]

speaking of how we're gonna present our characters, yoshi should be pretty straight forward on how i will approach him. he'll likely be much more independent like he is in his own games rather than heavily focused around being a mere companion and given his speech is generally just "yoshi yoshi yoshi" with translated text on the side, i may go with just have it pre-translated if that's cool

joker i will keep at having only one persona since i feel it'd get too messy if he had multiple. i'll generally have him portrayed in his thieves form since i'd assume the smash universe is similar to the metaverse in his own game, so he wouldn't be in his normal form much.

pyra/mythra might be a bit messy, but i have plenty of experience with them. most of how i'll write for them will be changes to making them closer to how they are in xc2 where pyra is weaker (since she is only a portion of mythra's power) while mythra is stronger.

 

[GrumpySwallow]

One Yoshi RPer I played with gave him an accent. "I be Yoshi! Yoshi be Smash Brother! You meet Smash Brothers, yah?"

Kind of reminded me of Yoshi in the old Super Mario World cartoon.

Persona and Xenoblades are games I haven't played, though I did do a quick look up of the characters on their wikis.

I like that idea for Yoshi actually. I might have to use that

 

[SheepKing]

Omg that’d be so adorable!

 

[GrumpySwallow]

That Yoshi was adorable!

 

[GrumpySwallow]

I'm trying to build the main RP thread, but my cockatiel keeps walking on my keyboard!

 

[GrumpySwallow]

RP Main thread made!

I don't think I'll make as many large posts like that. Can you also tell I watched a lot of Saturday morning cartoons as a kid? : P

 

[Ploegy]

I’ll try to get a post up either later today or tomorrow. I’ll have to decide where I’d like to start my trio (likely will start two of them together and one else where)
