Fandom Jo Jo’s Bizarre Adventure: The Game of 1985 CS/AU

OOC
Here
Name:
Z Aka Karma Zyrellius
Age:
29
Gender:
Male
Nationality:
American- Chicago native
Occupation:
Entertainer/Con-man
Appearance:
4DBD45C4-04EC-4E2C-890F-419C4B165352.jpeg

A stylish and slick wanna be entertainer looking to con his way into a luxurious life while doing what he loves. Z appears rather broad shouldered and fit with slick dirty blonde hair with blue eyes, often wearing flashy but fine suits with a hat and matching fingerless gloves just like as seen in the above pic.

Personality:
Laid back, fun loving, occasional wit and books smarts, but mainly a street smart and smooth kind of guy. Not always the brightest star in the sky nor always that close either, but knows how to survive and keep up appearances despite his less then profitable career thus far, often getting by as a night club entertainer and singer claiming multiple talents while skating by yet looking successful in the process while he climbs the ladder to his dreams. Despite his cons and questionable behavior at times, he’s a rather morally conscious dude and while he prefers to stay out of wars, get caught in dangerous games like the one being played across the world with this Diablo mess. He steps in when seeing need and unable to stand by and let certain things happen.
Background:
Born in Chicago, Illinois to long since absent parents, never knowing his true name only one initial. Z grew up surviving and playing con games to get by in life, living on the kindness of others and learning how to survive the streets of Chicago through wit, various talents and experiences that taught lessons to him about life and people. While he did study and try the other avenues he may have been offered as a youth, he never stuck with his education learning as much as he could but never getting to the point of great success like others. Instead of college, a young man simply known as Z eventually adopting the name Karma for interest garnering as he moved to the UK rather then California in hopes of achieving his dreams as a famous all around entertainer and singer, further playing with stage names he turned Z into Zyrellious and became known as Karma Zyrellious to any who met him and any club or job that hired him. Though Z was still a common name he’d answer by and get called from those he considered friends or close enough to call him Z.

Never one to work the hardest unless truly motivated or it relates to one of his passions in life, yet still a taste and eye for a certain lifestyle and fashion, Z continues his con games and laid back, fun loving ways appearing like a slacker and selfish to many. The idea of this order of extraordinary gentlemen and ladies recruiting him is almost laughable and unthinkable.... Yet circumstances and certain skills or abilities whichever you prefer have led to Z being contacted and brought into this very order.

Now Z is about to embark on a journey in opposition and seeking out this Diablo. The form of irony is rather funny. But having moved about different parts of the UK and stepping into one too many situations where innocents were involved, the growing struggle to stand idly by as London, his current home and location of the clubs he frequents and works as helped lead his reluctant recruitment into this order of Stand users.
Stand Name:
Chameleon’s Shadow

Stand Description/Abilities:
Chameleon’s Shadow is a well... A chameleon esque looking Stand who’s ability to camouflage and blend into its surroundings lends to Z allowing him the same ability. But a second more powerful ability adds to this Stand users ability to hide in plain sight so to speak.

Ability 1: A perfect trait for any spy and/or passive fellow. Chameleon’s Shadow allows the user to camouflage themselves with their surroundings, blending in with almost any surface and surroundings.

Ability 2: Using shadows of people, buildings, trees or shadows of almost any kind, Z through Chameleon’s shadow can strike, bind his targets in various ways pending the action used. As long as Z is and remains in view of a shadow he has the potential to reach his target. However he is still best served in short-mid range situations. While certain scenarios and locations prove detrimental to his success and abilities.
Music Theme/Inspiration:


Additional Information:

Like many stand users and people in general, Z does have some fighting ability outside of his Stand. While he wouldn’t beat expert martial artists or superior fighters who’d have the advantage if in a straight fight without stand assistance, Z can brawl and handle himself rather well having started out on the streets and knows basic Aikido.

Name: Victoria "Tori" Black
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Nationality: British - London

Occupation: Bar tender/Gang leader - The Union Jacks
Appearance:
Tori is a physically fit woman that is 6 feet tall. She has short red hair and brown eyes. She dresses in a punk style and could be confused for a boy if her chest isn't in view. She has black Union Jack stripes tattooed on her shoulder instead of what's pictured.

Personality:
Tori is a brash tomboy. She likes to be one of the guys and enjoys activities like drinking, smoking, pool, football (soccer), darts, etc. She's nonchalant and a little crass. She tends to call people "luv" and refers to the elderly as "pops, old man, old-timer, gran, etc. Normally she's pretty laid back, but she can get riled up into acting. She's doesn't like being womanized, even the slightest hint deserves a knuckle sandwich. She's also protective of those close to her, acting like a tough older sister and affectionately calls her gang members "numskulls." She has a soft spot for children, but shows it more paternally. Hugging a crying kid close to her chest just feels weird to her even though she'll do it if she feels like she has to, just to emulate what another woman would do. She tends to show her affection through her words and actions, excluding things like hugging and kissing. She doesn't normally initiate, but will reciprocate if it's with her girlfriend, Roxy, even if she gets red in the face doing so in public.

Background:
Tori was born in London England and was always a bit of a tomboy. She liked what her dad liked; action movies, cool cars, and cop shows. As she grew up, she decided that she wanted to be a cop and entered the local academy. She later passed her police training and became a rookie cop. She liked the action, but actual crime scenes took some getting used too; unlike what she had seen on TV, these were real. However, weird things also began to happen.

Her Stand, Shoot To Thrill, began to manifest. It ended up protecting her in some instances, but created complicated police work because only she heard STT's gunshots and the non-Stand users could only see the resulting bullet hole. "I guess I have a guardian angel," was the best explanation she could come up with. She tried not to use her Stand, but sometimes it made the difference between life and death.

One day she was sitting at her desk and thinking about quitting. That's when she noticed an officer bringing in an oddly happy looking young woman with streaks of orange and green in her blond hair. Tori was infatuated at first sight. The woman, Roxanne Smith, was being arrested for non-violent robbery. Now she really didn't think she was cut out to be a cop, falling in love with a felon. She officially quit the department. When her parents asked her about it, she felt like she couldn't tell them about her "superpower," "guardian angel," or whatever it was, so she told them about Roxy instead. Her parents were disappointed in her.

Tori began to work as a bar tender, sometimes bouncer, and would continue to visit Roxy when she could. The two grew to be close friends and Tori picked Roxy up when she was being released early due to good behavior. Tori offered Roxy a place to stay and even asked if she wanted to join a gang. Tori created the Union Jacks to help rehabilitate people or just give "misfits" a place to call home. She appointed Roxy as her second in command and they soon became girlfriends.

The Union Jacks were sometimes a nuisance, other times local heroes. Mostly due to Tori's "superpower." Her stand came in handy during riots or when aggressive gangs wanted to steal her turf. As the only Stand user in the group, she'd always deny that she had anything to do with the bizarre circumstances. She told Roxy her secret and she promised to keep it a secret. The other members haven't put two-and-two together yet, but some nights, when they're drunk enough, they spout rumors of their leader being a superhero. Nobody without a Stand believes them, yet, and perceive it all as drunken nonsense.

Stand Name: Shoot To Thrill

Stand Description/Abilities:
6 human sized Stands make up Shoot to Thrill. They are green and mechanical, resembling the solider toys, with red eyes that have crosshairs for pupils. Shoot to Thrill is fairy autonomous, taking orders from Tori, but doesn't need her telling it what to do 24/7. Each humanoid is equipped with a pistol as a secondary weapon and a main weapon. 4 have semi-automatic rifles. 1 has a sniper rifle, and 1 has a pump-action shotgun. Tori can wield any of the guns herself and whatever she's not using, Shoot to Thrill can operate. Ammo is unlimited, but they still have to switch magazines. The pistols have 12 bullets per mag. The rifles have 20 bullets per mag. Sniper has 10 bullets per mag. The shotgun has 8.

The guns and bullets are invisible to people without Stands, they don't even hear the gunshots.

Finger Gun: Tori wields one (or two if they are both pistols) of Shoot To Thrill's guns. To a non-Stand user, it looks like she's making a finger gun.
Firing Squad Formation: Tori sends her Stands out (max range 5 meters/16 feet from her) and they line up and fire at the opponent.
Spider Formation: Tori wields a gun or up to two pistols while 6 arms from Shoot To Thrill stick out of her body. 2 are empty handed and are more for defense. The other 4 also have pistols. Shoot To Thrill's eyes also appear on her body.

Music Theme/Inspiration:


Additional Information:
Tori's police training helps her hold her own in a fight, but she's more of a guns specialist.
Union Jack's Second-in-command

Name: Roxanne "Roxy" Smith
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Nationality: British - Originally from Liverpool

Occupation: Gang member - The Union Jacks
Appearance:
Roxy is a slender girl with feminine curves. She is 5 feet and 10 inches tall. She has amber brown eyes and blond hair with orange and green streaks. She usually has her hair tied back in a long pony tail. She has an assortment of clothes, some more feminine then others, and usually has a Union Jack bandanna on her.

Personality:
Roxy is a bubbly girl. She's happy-go-lucky, beams a bright smile, and is caring toward her friends. She's openly affectionate, comfortable in traditionally feminine roles, and saves the word "luv" for when she's talking to Tori. She also has a tomboy streak and can be a bit competitive.

Background:
Roxy was born in Liverpool and her father is a thief. Her mother wanted to keep him away from her, fearing he'd be a bad influence. She was right. Her father taught Roxy how to be a thief. How to infiltrate houses, the best way to carry things, and how to pickpocket. When she became a young adult, Roxy decided to try to make it to the big time in London. Her first big heist was a bust and she ended up caught by the police. Luckily she hadn't attacked anyone, so she ended up getting a lighter sentence.

She was surprised when an ex-cop named Victoria started to visit her in prison, but enjoyed them. The two women became close and when she was allowed to leave early, she called Tori to pick her up. Tori was beyond helpful, giving Roxy a place to stay and a high position in the "gang" she was starting. Through her time with Tori and the Union Jacks, Roxy turned away from the life her father taught her. Tori and Roxy grew closer and they became girlfriends. Tori eventually told Roxy about her "superpowers." Roxy promised to keep it a secret. "You're trying to help people, right luv? That's good enough of a reason to me."

The Silent Z The Silent Z
I'm thinking Roxy will start out more as an NPC, but maybe as the story goes on, the Union Jacks could be attacked, or something could happen to maybe give her a Stand; maybe a more support based one, to expand her role a little. I'm just thinking out loud, but I think it would be fun.

Name: Emilia "Em" Coltrane
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Nationality: London, UK (half-British, half-Italian)

Occupation:
Brand New Gang Member / Tesco's Cashier
Appearance:
As above, usually a red baseball cap, a white T-shirt, a denim shirt and black short shorts. The demin shirt has two buttons both over the left breast pocket. The first has a white puppy's smiling face on it. The second is a peace sign.
Personality:
Em is a sweet and bubbly girl. There's a sweet innocence to her. She's witty and sarcastic, and there's always a sense that she's just playfully and endearingly teasing you. This all changes when she gets angry, which is often - she has a short temper. When she does lose her temper, Em suddenly goes cold and emotionless, and she has a frightening aura.
Background:
Emilia's childhood wasn't kind to her. She was born to a rich Italian fashion designer named Bruschetto Ianucci and Willow Coltrane. Bruschetto had always wanted a son, and was extremely abusive to both his wife and his two daughters, Emilia and Penny. One day, when Em was 13, her father threatened Penny with a knife in a fit of rage. Penny was saved when Em tried to pull away Bruschetto's wrist, and touched his watch. Bruschetto's wrist suddenly started to move on its own. Em made her father stab himself, using her newfound Stand. After the police determined the death to be suicide, Em's family moved back to London. Em was traumatized, and her relationship with her mother and sister did not improve. While Willow also hated Bruschetto, it was clear to her that whatever happened, somehow Em had become a murderer. A couple days ago, Em ran away. After seeing Tori's Stand, Em confronted her and eventually joined the Union Jacks. A brand new member, and a Stand User at that, she is willing to do whatever to prove her value to Tori.

Stand Name: White Knuckles
Stand Stats:
Close-Range Stand
  • Power: A
  • Speed: C
  • Range: B
  • Persistence: D
  • Precision: C
  • Potential: B
Stand Description/Abilities:
Long story short, White Knuckles is a clothing-based Stand. Specifically, it has two different abilities.
  1. Ability to possess a piece of clothing (visually similar to Hierophant Green). White Knuckles basically possesses a piece of clothing, which must be something widely accepted to be clothes or accessories. (She can't say "someone could wear this onion ring as a earring" and possess it) In this form, White Knuckles is indistinguishable from the original clothing, but can change form, shape and color, as long as it's thematically similar to the original piece of clothing. While White Knuckles possesses a piece of clothing, it can move around as if the clothing is really possessed by a poltergiest or something. (Yanking around, pulling, hovering, etc)
  2. Ability to incorporate something she touches into Em's clothes/White Knuckles' body. White Knuckles can touch an object, absorbing it and turning it into clothes. The original object is effectively destroyed, and the material of it is reused to turn into clothing. For example, White Knuckles could touch a metal girder, and turn the girder into a scarf. However, the material, size, and basic shape of the object cannot be changed. So the girder scarf would actually be a giant metal girder wrapped around Em's neck, with the same weight and flexibility.
White Knuckles is normally a Close-Range humanoid Stand with a range of 10 meters, but when it uses its first ability, it can move further away. As long as the piece of clothing was within 10 meters of Em at the time of use, White Knuckles has theoretically infinite range. If it returns to its humanoid form and is out of range, it flies to Em's side. If it is unable to do so, like if it's restrained or can't get through, then Em and White Knuckles will be in extreme pain, and if separated too long, Em will die.

Name: Kitagawa 'Kit' Takahiro

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Nationality: Tokyo, Japan. Moved to Newyork, America

Occupation: Printmaker / Thief

Appearance: Kit dresses modestly but tries to make himself look slightly formal when he can, normally wearing dress pants and dress shirts or button-ups with collars, He's also quite tall but not very broad

Personality: Most days Kitagawa tries to keep to himself and blend into the crowd, he doesn't voice his opinions loudly, he doesn't try to cause trouble for himself or others, he acts as polite and respectful as possible. He's a fairly average-looking young adult, but- due to this fact and his quick hands, he makes a very good pickpocket and thief who takes things not out of necessity but to merely take them. Kit is a kleptomaniac, taking anything he can get his hands on whenever he can and it is not a compulsion he is ashamed of, most of the time he doesn't even keep the stuff he pilfers, he just enjoys taking things and having them momentarily for the thrill of it

Background: In the wake of world war II, Kitagawa and his family immigrated to America to obtain the "American Dream" that supposedly anyone could achieve, after a lot of travel they arrived in NewYork City on a very cramped boat and began their lives anew. They lived in an equally cramped apartment in the slums of the Big Apple and opened a printmaking shop where they sold prints of famous Japanese works of art, Kitagawa was quite good at making prints but found it rather boring. After a few years Kit started making deliveries for his families business and that's how his work as a petty thief began, lifting off what he could from people he passed by on his outings, wallets, purses, maps, watches, anything really so long as he could take it quickly and without notice.

One day he got a little brave and broke into a very old broke into an "abandoned" warehouse to find things to fill his pockets with, after a few minutes of snooping around he was shot by an unknown figure with an arrow that pierced through his chest, after a moment the arrow was violently ripped out and Kitagawa fell unconscious. hours later he awoke with the wound fully healed and began stumbling home, feeling completely drained only to get corned by some muggers who wanted his money and threatened to shoot him but, their attempts to take his wallet failed when his Stand had awakened fully to defend him in a flash of bright colorful light that dazed the muggers long enough for Kit to run away to safety.

a few weeks later Kitagawa began using his stand to help in his thieving endeavors to distract his targets.

Stand Name: Love Doctor

Stand Description/Abilities:
A pink mechanical humanoid stand. Has a very feminine form, has a valentine heart motif on her forehead and the back of her hands. Wears a nurse's outfit and carries around needles with teeny tiny valentine heart Stands called Cooties.

This Stand was not built for combat.

Emotional Healing: Love Doctor injects one of her needles into an injured person, injecting the Cooties into the injured person's blood stream. The Cooties stimulate healing and cellular regrowth, making it possible to regrow organs or limbs during the healing cycle. Healing can take minutes to an hour depending on how bad the injury is. Love Doctor uses the feeling of love as an anesthetic and causes the person to fall asleep. While under the affect of Love Doctor, the person being healed thinks of someone who they love a lot and has pleasant dreams about them. It could be a friend, family member, or a significant other. The person being healed might say mushy stuff (within the context of the relationship) in their sleep or when coming to as if they were under the effects of pain medication.

The Cooties vanish when the healing is complete.

Additional Information: Stand currently dormant.
