Not to mention we could treat the wounded as well. Use our friction power to make platlets in blood stick together faster/better in order to help prevent someone from bleeding out.

[Forgive my afkness you guys, I had something to deal with.

I hate to disappoint, but "Domino Effect" only works on "objects you can see". You do not have to see it completely, but it needs to be clearly defined. Thus, you can use Touch and Go on someone's skin in its entirety if you can see their face, but if it's someone like a Krieg you cannot see any of their skin, you can't affect their skin.

Keep in mind that Stand Users barring Polnareff can see what their Stands see.

The fact that we could have destroyed biotitans from the inside with it would have been rather overpowered anyhow.

>>27589762

You decide to approach the Guardsman that seemed, in your opinion, to be the most critically wounded.

There was blood everywhere.

"How is he?", you ask the medic tending to him.

"He's not going to make it", she responds. "He's lost too much blood. If we could stop him from bleeding so much I could probably stabilize him, but as it stands, there's nothing I can do".

You recognize the Guardsman as the Chimera's main operator. What do you do?

[Sorry for long update time, network being a shit.

Also, questions in regard to what Joachim is currently seeing, feeling, his inventory and whatnot are a free action and don't require a roll, for future reference.

>>27590343

You can indeed see the blood and manipulate it (at least the blood you can see, LR works differently in liquids and needs to use Touch & Go in several different parts of the liquid at a time.

You can definitely slow down the bleeding. Just keep in mind not to overdo it, as too much friction could be harmful]

How do we currently feel about the guardsman? Guilt, for not being able to protect him? Remorse? How about the bloodshed in general? Are we horrified? Numb?

>>27590340

You use Low Rider to manipulate the blood around the would. It starts to clot, but this surely isn't going to save him by itself. You look at the medic. She cracks a smile.

"Yeah, whatever you did, thanks. This ought to earn me enough time to work. Come to think of it, weren't you hit pretty hard? You should have that checked up. I can do an examination once I'm done here, if you want.

[I saw you guys mentioning 1s earlier. If someone rolls a 1, it overrides every other action, and the result is going to be a botch version of whatever suggestion the roller made.

What planet are we on again?

>>27590995
OP, due to our stand speed, we got FTL reactions when using a stand and our stand is FTL right? Also, isn't stand invincible to anything other than a stand, so a stand can be our shield by being in front of us.

>>27591436
It's not invincible, it just can't be touched by other things, so bullets and whatever else would just go trough.

>>27591367

Planet Carillon. A planet of frozen wastes as far as the eye can see.

>>27591468
But we can oraora things.

>>27591436
FTL? It said as fast as a heavy bolter. Still fast as fuck, just not physics breaking.

>>27591468

*unless we told it to punch all of the bullets, which it could feasibly do

>>27591481
>>27591495
Not even Star Platinum could oraora all the dakka.

>>27591491
...Star platinum can block rays of light from the Sun stand.

Silver Chariot can hit someone who can move by reflection of mirrior, which is at the speed of light.

In the 6 arc, people can react to meteors and intercept them.

>>27591506

Then we apply the Moar Dakka principle to our ORAORA. This is a crossover, right?

>>27591529
But if you use MOAR ORA, they'll use even more MOAR DAKKA. Who can MOAR more?

>>27591491
All stands with rank A on speed can to some degree move faster than light.

>>27591166
probably using windows 8 like me. my surface doesn't have prt+scrn

>>27591436

Don't forget any damage a Stand takes reflects itself upon the user.

A Stand itself is intangible but can have effect on objects as if they were tangible(see: Star Platinum stopping the bullet)

On the topic of Star Platinum, Low Rider is about as fast, if a little bit slower.]

>>27591587
Yup Yup.

I heard they going to do an update of ASB like making throws more damaging, making taunts less random like one taunt give you frame advantage and another give you disadvantage. Hopefully the game is fixed to the point of it being very fun as well competitive.

"You really are a blessing, son. But you have somewhere to be, don't you? I overheard you mention you needing to get to a place called Bohemia Tower." you nod.I

"I think I know where it is. Bad news is, it's pretty far away, and to get there on foot would take way too long. The good news is, we have a Valkyrie airlifting reinforcements to this location. Rather than making a return trip, I'll tell them to take you there."

"Colonel..."

He smiles genuinely. "No thanks necessary. If such is the Emperor's Will, so it shall be done. It would be incredibly useful to have you around, but you have a place to be. Just come back when you're done with whatever you need to do there, ya hear? Oh, and take your friends Costello and the Psyker with you. Zola as well."

You approach Rahman. He sits on top of the sandbags, conversing with Mercuria.

"Ah, Joachim!" he calls out as he sees you approach. "I was expecting you to approach me so we could talk. You must have many questions, in regard to your 「power」."

"Not as many as me," interjects Mercuria, "I still have no idea what just happened. It was insane. But eh, I figure things do tend to get crazy whenever you're around, Joachim. Just never like this."

"In any case...", Rahman starts. "That Battle-Spirit of yours is something we of the Adeptus Astra Telepathica have always thought as but a myth, if we know about them at all. One of the few records to have survived the distant past spoke of them...the record was a transcript of a report written around the 3rd Millenium. In it, it described that certain gifted individuals could harness the power of 'spirits from within', each with radically different powers, and control them as if they were just another extension of their body. That record, transcribed from an ancient language, was written by one「SWF」."

"「SWF」..." you mutter after him.

"Indeed. This record referred to these powers as 「Stands」. So while we of the Astra Telepathica called it 'the Legend of the Blessed Battle-Spirits', it seems the original users called their power 「Stand」."

"So wait." Mercuria interrupts. "This power Joachim has harnessed is called a「Stand」? "

"Indeed. But by far, the most interesting aspect of this tale is, right now, where the reproduction of said document was located. It was found in no other place than Stella Platina."

"WHAT?!", both you and Mercuria yell in unison.

"How could a copy of an ancient document from Holy Terra find its way to such distant a planet... only to be unearthed by the Astra Telepathica about 500 years ago...a myth turns out to be more than fiction, and by a dweller of Stella Platina itself. It is unbelievable."

"I don't believe in coincidences that contrived." you respond to your psyker ally. "If it was found in my home planet, and I have the ability to manifest the power of a「Stand」...then that information must have been there for a 「reason」!"

"But..what reason could there be, JoJo?" Mercuria asks you. You place your hand on top of your helmet, as if adjusting a hat.

"That's something I intend to find out. And the Bohemia Tower seems a good a place as any to start looking for some clues."

Your helmet has a sticker for a traditional sigil from your home planet on the top left side. It looks like a circle bisected by a vertical line, and with an upside down "V" intersecting it at the bottom.

You carry two frag grenades, a laspistol, your uniform, a canteen, and of course, your flak jacket and helmet. Your scarf still keeps you warm, and the Heart Pendant hangs from your neck.

"Rahman", you turn back to the Psyker. "To tell you the truth, I saw a strange vision when we first met. There was a...Stand next to you, and it looked like a red bird-man. And you weren't really you, but rather, someone with a similar face."

"Peculiar", the psyker answers. "I saw something strange, too. Next to you, there were 「Nine Silhouettes」, if I managed to count correctly. I thought I was just seeing things, though.."

"Perhaps not." you say.

"Regardless, it seems I did not meet you just out of luck, Joachim Joestar. I hope that I am useful to your future."

"Hey, don't hog all the glory." Mercuria. "You two ain't goin' in at this alone, ya hear? I'm gonna be with you two through thick and thin as well."

Your bonding is cut short as the sound of engines draw closer. You look up and see a Valkyrie heading towards your squad. Soon enough, it lands, and is vacated by several mixed Guardsmen forces. You realize that while most are Battlers, there are some Cadians intermingled with them as well. You remember that there is a Cadian regiment fighting in another part of the planet.

"Transport's here", Zola, the medic, approaches your group. "Pleasure to meet all of you. Now there's going to be plenty of time to trade life stories inside of the Chimera, you hear?"

You climb onto the squad hold of the Chimera. All four of you look back at Colonel Quattro, who is looking at you from down below. The four of you salute him in tandem, and he salutes back.

It is not long until you are in the air. Only the four of you are in the Valkyrie, alongside the Operator crew.

What do you do now?

The medic known as Zola looks, perhaps, all-too-innocent and entirely too young to be in the battlefield.

Sure, you are a young man too (in your 21st year to boot!), but she looked even younger. Granted, in this universe, factors such as age do not stop conscription...but service in Stella Platina is never mandatory (special cases like Mercuria's notwithstanding). You wouldn't place her outside the 15-17 age bracket.

From the looks of the locks that escaped her helmet, her hair was jet-black and rather short.

Bottom line, while Mercuria's angular face reflected on her role as a 'combatant', Zola's soft, gentle and rounder features made her look like a 'caretaker'.

>>27593616

Halfway through the trip, you decide to bring out Low Rider. As there was enough space for you to do so, you decide to have him toss a few punches in order to see his capabilities. You have him basically shadowbox...but you can't really tell much, outside from the fact that his fists are much faster than what your senses can perceive.

You determine that Low Rider has to be lightning-fast, from his punching speed and the fact that he managed to intercept a Power Klaw aimed right at you, closing a distance of about 2 meters to do so in a split second.

Your transport soon touches ground, and you step out of the Valkyrie together with your entourage. About 500 meters from your location, a large, black spire stretches out to the heavens, its structure battered by unimaginable age.

Hmm, if only we had a stubber on hand, we could fire it and have our Stand try to catch it.
While not useful against opponents armed with energy weaponry, our Stand could prove immensely useful against enemies armed with physical projectiles.

Also why is everyone so keen on hamon, it's not that effective outside of undead/vampires/pillarmen, if anything we should try to reenact the Spin, since our Stand manipulates friction, unless we can infuse Hamon with the Emperor's Light or whatever, Hamon would be almost useless outside of healing.

Every time I check those threads, I see Stands made by people who didn't read Jojo and that don't actually follow Jojo's (very) lose guideline.

Rolled 11

>>27594500

Awesome. I really like the Ripple in Phantom Blood - it was just a really fun kind of power. I'd be all for bringing it back in one form or another.

Also one final roll for taking a breather to chat with the crew and discuss what they know about the Tower. From knowledge comes victory, after all.

>>27594433
Quite a bit of that is redudant thanks to us having a Stand, our Stand is a melee-type, so we already have strength and speed, hell Jotaro seemed to age backwards after awakening his stand.

However being able to zero friction an object and then using the Spin on it could allow you to do all kinds of crazy shennigans.

>>27594540
Still doesn't seem as worthwhile as having a Stand that can manipulate the fundamentals of the Spin.

>>27594622
But why not get BOTH THE SPIN and RIPPLE?

I mean, it made bubbles into fucking scary shit.

>>27594540
Bottlecap gun/cactus would probably be weaker than an actual lasgun/pistol.

Leafhanglider we could just take a lightweight object and up the friction on it to an incredible level to do the same thing, and with Hair Shield we can just ORAORA bullets.

On the other hand, Super Spin can do dimensional fuckery, and we could probably hit shit in the warp with our Steel Balls.

>>27594285

You approach the operators o fthe Valkyrie and pop a simple question.

"How about leaving us at the top?"

"We can definitely fly you up there", the main pilot responds, "but we couldn't see any external entry point as we flew around it, and have no way of opening one ourselves. Not to mention we don't have any Paratrooper equipment on board to drop you safely, either. Unless you have some sort of plan?"

[NM 6]

This is a crossover, so God-Emperor only knows how things will interact with each other. The Ripple might prove extremely effect against dark Chaos energies. And seeing as Stands are psychic and how psychic energies are related to the Warp and 40k's track record with that...yknow, it might be handy to have a fallback technique or two.

>>27594665

Or we could do this and just load ourselves up. I don't see any reason why not to - it wouldn't be hard to edge the story in a way such that each technique will be valuable to us at different points.

Nothing wrong with being wary of traps if have the chance to be.

Though I agree that the CHECK EVERY DOOR AND LISTEN TO EVERY HALLWAY takes away from the fun of things.

>>27595555
More like, we should play like we aren't paranoid veterans of too many dungeon crawls. Keep in mind that this is a Quest, and also a Jojo game. GM isn't going to be like 'oh well, you die cause you didn't check for traps'. We should concern ourselves less with 'winning' and more with telling a good story.

"C'mon, JoJo!" Mercuria chuckles. "Did you honestly believe we'd find resistance in a tower that has been deserted for ages?" She jokingly punches your shoulder as she gets off the elevator.

Well now you just feel plain silly.

You find yourself inside what appears to be a comms room, perhaps the largest you've seen in your entire life. The derelict equipment, emblazoned with Imperial emblems of faded gold, does not seem usable any more.

You decide to scan the room, but are stopped as a large behemoth of a man comes within your vision. You have 'met' this man once before, his holy visage now radiant in your vision.

You kneel in front of him. He speaks up.

"Never kneel before me, Joachim Joestar. It is because of those like you that I was given the title and role I have had. You and I have much to talk about."

>>27595891

The...God-Emperor is no longer the Corpse-Emperor?

You stand, as ordered. "You must be wondering why I told you to come here. I am, of course, not really here...this is merely a projection of my Stand Ability, 「Guiding Light」. However, most know it under the name of 「Astronomicon」. And while the beacon in the warp can be seen by any man, this projection that allows 'Direct Communication' can only be seen or heard by those with Stands. Such an ability, however, does not work anywhere, and this room, along several others, was specially designed in order for my ability to work in a long distance, far faster than that which any Astropath can achieve."

The Emperor's eyes widened. An expression mixing hatred and sorrow adorns his countenance.

"Curses! 「They」 have started their move! Joachim! You must get out of here! Share the gift of the Pendant with the Psyker and your longtime friend, the young girl would be killed by it! Go! Get out of here! Do anything you need to do in order to survive!"

Whatever disturbed the Emperor so must truly be horrendous.

Your descent nears the ground level as a familiar voice finds itself within your helmet-vox.

One the edge of your vision, you notice Zola is visibly shaking, holding her trembling body in a self embrace as her eyes water.

Quattro's voice is ragged and pained, no longer containing that golden confidence it always did.

"JoJo...they killed us all. All of the 「Battlers」...I failed them all, and will be joining them soon..."

A choked sob from Zola. You hear her mutter a single word.

"Papa..."

"...don't cry, my daughter...it figures the day I give you my 「Lucky Sunglasses」 the day I die...but that just means they will protect your life from now on. That's a relief..."

"No...Papa...Papa..."

With a renewed vigor, the Colonel speaks again.

"...JoJo. Costello. Akon. And my dear Zola...you are the 「Last Battlers 」! GLORY TO YO-"

The loud BLAM of a Bolt Pistol firing is the most horrible noise you've ever heard as rage wells within you.

Zola wails inconsolably.

"PAPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!"

"Oh, be quiet, little girl. You will be joining him soon, anyways! No reason to be sad! Now, this Inquisitorial ship will be leaving Vox range, but it will leave you with a nice parting gift of EXTERMINATUS!!"

"Hayes.", you begin with an icy heart. "I will find you and I will kill you. I will make you pay for your treachery."

"I'd love to see a dead heretic hunt me down! Now... GOODBYE, JOJO!!!"

The Vox goes dead, as so does the glimmer inside a young girl's eyes.

The elevator finally reaches the ground level. Everyone is silent.
