Can you explain to me the process of transforming from a golden great ape to a ssj 4, and elaborate on the requirements to do so? I need to know because of... uh, reasons.

It's pretty easy actually.


So long as the Saiyan has attained the power of a SS2 and retains their tail, they can transform into a Golden Great Ape when the moon is full. If they do so, becoming a Golden Great Ape is highly dangerous. The enormous power flowing through the body of the Saiyan often (9,990 times out of 10,000) goes beyond the Saiyan's control, causing them to go on a rampage.


However, if the Saiyan can regain mental control, they can begin pushing the Golden Great Ape form to new heights. Pushing their power to or beyond 10x their original level upon entering the Golden Great Ape form results in the transformation. Of all the SS transformations, it's the easiest to achieve despite the danger inherent within it.


Did someone find a SS4 picture they liked?
 
I wish. I can never find art for any established setting that isn't from some obscure video game or something or isn't really awful fan art

Lol. Then why so curious about a form which won't be attained for a LONG, LONG time?
 
Natevess said:
Oh, no reason
I really really really really want it


Also how long we talkin' here?
Ha!


We're talking a long, long, LONG time here buddy boy.


We haven't even made it 1/4 of the way to Inecros or the first SS transformation with Era. Even after that, SS2 won't be available for at least 8 more big time battles after that. Beyond that, whether it comes to SS3 or SS4 first is anyone's guess as I haven't thought that far ahead. But it's going to take a LONG time to get far enough to use SS4.
 
Good. Hopefully we can keep things going long enough. You really know how to keep me hyped because I'm honestly really curious what's coming after Inecros.


Also, will Super Saiyan God and any of those shenanigans ever come up?

No. Not this time.
 
Lol I was lucky in finding a good ss4 pic for Fae. Looks just like her.

I haven't found anything fitting for an ss3. So I actually considered skipping that form since I don't think Fae could manage it well. (And ss3 has Tiw written all over it.)

Heh

xD I knew that much. The target of the heh was to which my question mark was directed.
Mainly the part about SS3 having Tiw written all over it.
 
A burly power hungry and ambitious long haired pretty boy? Totally gonna break himself to rise beyond his rivals by sheer force of will and training.


Either that or ascended/ultra ss.

Easily see that one coming. Lol!
 
Teddy is a unique one because I could also see her going ss3. Given she might likely try to exeriment with her newfound powers. Maybe full power ss too.


Era also seems first in line and the likely candidate to become full power ss.


I could see Broc or Fae as candidates for the first of ss2. More likely broc, because I can see him putting himself in harms way to help his allies and completing the physical duress requirement. And I think it is fun keeping Fae behind the pack.


I will become the legendary SS because I am awesome. Though if not Era, I can foresee it belonging to a broly-esque enemy.


As for ss4, lol I am sure everyone wants the shot at discovering that. But the requirements of the golden ape and ss4 are a little too vague to properly speculate on as to who should best discover it.

Technically there is no "best" case scenario among this cast. Any of them, once they've acquired SS2, could achieve the form. The problem is that if they do before the SS3 is discovered, then the SS3 becomes a moot point and not worth the effort any further.


As for the Legendary Super Saiyan, it's off limits to our characters. It is there in the Mechanics mostly to show that it was under consideration, but I don't think I'll be using it in this RP at all.
 
I think ss4 would be best reserved for the finale scenarios. Well after ss3, since ss4 is the big guns. And we would hate to ruin the awesome ss3. Even of ss2 is the requirement, I think it should be granted by you on when the trigger is pulled for it. Even if technically speaking the characters could do it, it has a great amount of narrative power.


I find the legendary ss to be quite the curious form. As it doesn't seem to follow any of the rules of the other ss forms. Its like a seperate transformation all together. And if honestly speaking, it looked to be a much more intense version of ss2. Like an ascended/ultra ss2. The curiosity is why the hair color was went from black to blue then to gold.


I never recommend taking cards off the table. Since this isn't a canon game, it gives us the possibility to explore other venues and uses of the series.

True.


And for Broly's hair, I have the explanation according to Toriyama. Broly's hair was a purple-ish/blue hue in his SS form due to the mind control device put on him by his father Paragus. Why it affected his hair is unknown, and Toriyama won't really say anything more about it. In "Second Coming," we see Broly's SS hair is the normal golden blonde color because of the lack of a control device. The slightly greenish tint of LSS is also kind of a split between Broly's naturally green energy and the yellow of the SS form, though it was much more like the natural yellow in said form during the "Second Coming" movie than in "Broly: the LSS" movie.


So yeah, that's the color issue explained. But the form itself is definitely a class all its own and separate from the rest. If there is a true place for it in the SS lineup in terms of how strong it is, it ranks up there with SS3, but slightly weaker (however it would definitely last longer thanks to almost no Ki consumption versus the SS3 Ki consumption out the ass).
 
Hmmm. That is an interesting explanation. But if he said it, then let it be so. However given the emphasis of this rp is that it isn't cannon, you still have room to play around with it.


Such as, for example, using it like the next base ss form after ss3. Like a full power ss transcended. This could keep ss1 and ss2 from becoming completely obsolete if they receive boosts from 'legendary' ascencion. It could also help balance the massive power gap between ss3 and ss4 with that boost. Without pitting the crew against main enemies that would have enough power to wipe them out in a flash if they didn't have boosts or ss4.


Which brings me to another question. How do you want us to write out power levels without spamming the post with zeroes. Could we say like 34.5 mil, or would we have to do 23000000000000000000000 or would you want scientific notation?

Haha. I see your point with the numbers.


I think that a good option will be to use the first example of 34.5 million. I'm a simplistic guy myself, and I never really got into the whole scientific notation thing or other kind of math equations or writings like 10^12 and such. That confuses me.


So yeah, we'll go with that first option.


In the meantime I'll toy around with ideas about LSS for a while and see if I like anything that comes out of it.
