Jumpchain CYOA Thread #1650: I want to get off Ms.Jump-Chan's wild ride Edition

Sure, I could probably just rewrite the world and everyone in it by then, but that's not as fun for me, and it's especially no fun for the people living here.

Better to get expert opinions on things I might have missed, and make sure the world can keep up with the changes.

By the way that's also why you reintroduce the non-aggressive extinct species first. Like passenger pigeons.

Maybe? I'm definitely aiming to bring back a ton of science stuff from Fallout, Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and Batman the Animated Series. And if everything does go to shit, I could use Ritualist+Pocket Realm to evacuate vast swathes of humanity to my pocket dimension. But in terms of unfucking politics, that's more unlikely. I could use myself as a Damocles sword, but in all honesty that doesn't really appeal to me.

Speaking of my mini chain...

7. Ghost Rider
Age: 28
Origin: Rider
Perks: Designated Rider
Spirit of Vengeance (700)
Spirited (400)
Spirit of Justice
You Can't Live In Fear (300)
Hot Shot (250)
Items: Nice Bike
Companions: Import Ms. Martian and Nick Valentine, spending 400 CP to give them 800 CP. (-150)

Ms. Martian: (Demon, Satanic Strength, Blackhearted, Spirited, Child of the Devil, I Have No Soul To Burn, Elemental Evil (Water))

Basically the same as canon, only Johnny is now an alcoholic and he has a few more powers.

>"Johnny, you must fight the demons."
"One more drink, Mr. Rattle Bones..."
>"Johnny, NO."
"JOHNNY YES."

I'm also bringing him along, because how could I not after spending ten years inside his head?

Of course I could. Just bringing high-tech sources of energy could end most conflicts once resources stop being limited.

So, I guess I could toss something up, although I'm not planning of sticking there for much longer. There are still many universes left to explore.

Keratin takes a long time to degrade in relation to other body tissues.

>Not becoming THE PAIN

Is it me or does watching /jc/ get... repetitive over time?

It's been serious fucking cases of deja vu every time I come back to these threads. Exact same shit, different day, to the point where I'm starting to see this in everyday life. Cyclical bullshit that nobody seems to notice - or if they do, they don't care and don't make it obvious that they notice.

I've been here since the start, and while some jumps do get frequent discussion, the threads overall have a forward direction due to the stream of new content. So I don't feel the same, no.

>/jc/
Yes, it is. How new are you? No offense intended.

>see this in everyday life
We all notice it, barring the exceptional few who live very exciting and challenging lives

>How new are you?

A few months, give or take a week or three of lurking.

There you go. I personally blame the shitposting for /jc/'s cyclical feel. As said, we do mainly discuss new Jumps and their settings (except series like Fate and Exalted which always come back into focus)

Yeah no it's the same topics. Waifus, OPnes mis-spelled deliberately, shitposting, more waifus, and more shitposting.

The jump topics do cycle through every so often, but we always come back to Worm, Exalted, or Fate/ as the primaries. Which does also explain why it might feel repetitive.

Senpai I think you glitched.

You know what? You're absolutely right.

8. Bee Movie
Origin: Bee
Age: A Few Days
Perks: Jumper Larry King
Ya Like Jazz? (900)
God-Emperor of Beekind (600)
Bee-stiality (400)
Items: Honey
Companions: Import Ms. Martian, Nick Valentine, and Johnny Blaze, give Ms. Martian 300 CP to spend. (100)
Dr. Miles Manners (-100)
Drawbacks: Bee Puns (0)
Ms. Martian: (Human, Career, Bloom)
Nick Valentine: (Human, Career)
Johnny Blaze: (Human, Career)

Everything is cyclical to some degree. As you get older you start to notice this more and more. It's just how long the cycle lasts. /jc/, being a fairly small community on Veeky Forums, has short cycling for a lot of topics, including certain popular jumps, shitposting, power, powers, and waifus.

But there is still a gradual, but consistent forward momentum, due to new content being churned out, which allows for slightly new facets of those topics to be discussed, and occasional discussion about new settings. Not to mention the power creep, which has been very much a thing since the very beginning of jumpchain.

Anyway, it's more obvious during the winter months I think. If you really want to talk about something else, you should just try to start up a conversation about it. The worst thing that happens is people aren't interested, and at that point you've lost nothing by trying.

Do Bloodbreeds in Kekkai Sensen have the traditional vampire weaknesses or not? In the anime it's talked about one time that apparently sunlight harms them, but it's never shown, and the jump itself doesn't mention it either.

9. Batman the Animated Series
Age: 30
Origin: Scientist
Perks: Timm Design
Gimmick
Researcher
Specialist (Botany)
Brilliant Engineer (800)
Crazed Chemistry (600)
Hybridization (300)
Powers: Face of Clay (-700)
Items: Costume
Lab Safety Equipment
Companions: Import Ms. Martian, Nick Valentine, Johnny Blaze, and Dr. Bees. (-1100)
Rogue Gallery (-900)
Drawbacks: The Demon's Head, Gotham Beyond, Past Tragedy, No Killing Rule, Mentally Ill (Delusional; I think I'm Jesus) (0)
Ms. Martian: (Scientist, Researcher, Specialist (Botany), Accidental Breakthrough, Florakinesis, Programmable Metal, Puddin's Pie)
Nick Valentine: (Vigilante, Secret Identity, Friend of the Police, Disappearing Act, Martial Discipline, World's Greatest Mind)
Johnny Blaze: (Drop In, Put A Smile On Their Faces, Madman, Joker Immunity, Yellow-Skinned Wacky Man)
Dr. Bees: (Vigilante, Secret Identity, Friend of the Police, Animal Hybrid (Bee), Trained Animal (Bees), Bee Signal)

Since this is my last Jump, even if I lose I still win.

Okay, so here's my origin story: after an explosion at a chemical factory gave me the powers of Clayface, my new archnemesis- the Sculptor- found my unconscious body in the wreckage and changed my face so I looked like Jesus. When I woke up, I looked at my reflection in a pool of water and saw that I looked like Jesus, and my mind, in an attempt to piece itself together after the trauma I went through, convinced itself that I was the messiah. However, some aspects of my scientific personality remained, giving me an unmistakable feeling of loss that I never shook. However, I did my best to clean up Gotham, and even if I failed it's probably in a better state than I found it. Probably.

I want to make a chain focused on saving worlds and preventing existential risks.

Any recommendations of jumps and perks that would help with that?

She has no pants on.

Shadow doesn't wear pants either, she's trying to be like her fursona.

...

Being a shoggoth with lovecraft.

Xianxia cultivation for punching.

Supcom for energy and tech.

Valkyrie core for paradise habs.

I've seen where this doujin goes.

Jorge Joestar for Time travel and power copy

civilization to use the stuff from on abstract concepts/environmental features.

Magika for resurrection.

Lord of light for Soul manipulation/reincarnation stuff.

I don't remember it being mentioned that it does anything. Lucky Abrams explicitly mentions that they cannot be destroyed with any traditional means to kill a vampire without the curse of their cells kicking-in and recreating them.

Most fights against them are in the darkness, but the lower half of one fought in broad daylight against a master vampire-hunter without suffering any apparent damage from the sunlight. Also, the other Half was flying during all the fight and arrived from one side of the the world to other at night, so that part might also been exposed to sunlight for quite some time.

I don't think that it does anything to them. At most it would be like Alucard from Hellsing. They might not like it but it doesn't specially do anything to them.

How come Commorragh, Eldar, and Imperium have their own folders in 40k while Sororitas and Tyranid are standing separately?

One of the Nier jumps literally has a perk about letting you quest to save the world.

Oh, that's neat. I was getting worried that I accidently fucked myself over by picking that option.

I feel that if blood breeds had traditional vampire weaknesses (crosses, garlic, staking), Libra would have used those against them.
In Episode 8, Raju fights the lower half of the Blood Breed outside during the day, clearly the sun is shining off reflections but since there's that cloud over the city, maybe that's enough to stop sunlight harming them.

If you want to stop x-risks, Eclipse Phase. /shill

So, what was your time in Protectors of the Plot Continuum like? Mine was basically Pic Related, as I have a Decadriver and I'm one of eight folks in the Department of Mary Sues (Kamen Rider) who get's lent out to the Department of Crossovers often.

What Pokemon did you choose as your alt-form and why? Did you base your decision off what you thought looked coolest/was your favorite or did you think about it from the standpoint of what would be most useful ranging from lore to the moves they can learn (like choosing Abra for teleportation)

Any jump that would let us become a concept?

I died in Protectors of the Plot Continuum, actually.

Some dumb SUE that was an interdimensional traveller who received free boons from each world based on him fulfilling the whims of some omniscient dickburger.

... wait a minute...

Ninetales, because of the abilities outside of moves it has been shown to have and because of the extreme fluffiness. I thought about becoming a Riolu for dat Aura, but the hand and breast spikes of Lucario look fucking retarded.

>Dr. Bees: (Vigilante, Secret Identity, Friend of the Police, Animal Hybrid (Bee), Trained Animal (Bees), Bee Signal)
hmmm

>Protectors of the Plot Continuum
So what the fuck is that even about? Is it a webcomic, a webnovel, a quest? Is it just jc-lite?

Is this the part where your Benefactor gives you a free pass while going "LET THIS BE LESSON TO YOU!" ?

>clearly the sun is shining off reflections but since there's that cloud over the city, maybe that's enough to stop sunlight harming them.

They fight had also been taking place in other parts of the world until they arrived at Hellsalem's Lot, before they opened a gate from India to the city (in the manga it seems to be day-light in India as well).

The only vampire weakness that they have is that they don't reflect on mirrors. That's basically the only giveaway to identify them without using the eyes. And I think one of them mentioned something about having a weird smell.

Evangelion? I think Darksiders also does that post-spark. Maybe with sufficient experience and power, you could do that being an Avatar in DC Occult or a God in Marvel Magic.

Technically via your Madness Wavelength you can become one with the concept of your wavelength (for example, Asura couldn't be destroyed while Fear still existed).

What's a jump that can be slotted really early in a chain that has a perk to protect my true name? I know about Skulduggery Pleasant and Bartimaeus, but those are still a bit too dangerous for me.

Jumps where Jumper holds political office?

Dragon or Phoenix Jumpers?

Dragons are lame.

tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum

It's a meta-narritive about people trying to kill Mary Sues. Personally I like the Anti-Cliché and Mary-Sue Elimination Society better, as it makes Mary-Sues a fucking threat to be reckoned with.

Why not a phoenix dragon? It's very obviously a dragon, but it has phoenix characteristics too!

Thank you all!

I've compiled a list of things to grab in order to fix the environment:

Tropico
Captain Planet
Anno 2070
Green Energy from Zootopia
Light of Terra part 2
Path of Life from Age of Wonders
Generic Sugar Bowl dance thing
Actraiser

I think the best one is in Generic Sugar Bowl of all places.

As for other x-risks like the ones from outer space, maybe I could set up an orbital defense station or leave an Innistrad Protector behind in every jump?

Inheritance Cycle has one for 200cp

If you're in charge of Kamen Rider related Sue-ery, could you please get rid of all those dumb "self-insert lands in [SETTING THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH KAMEN RIDER], gets Kamen Rider transformation device" fics. I don't understand them at all, they make no sense.

Recovering those devices is only about.... 93% of our job. I'm not in charge just one of only eight who happens to be in the Branch office at all, we're understaffed and overworked as is.

Dragons are awesome, but if I'm being honest with myself I'm probably more a phoenix.

Tortoise. No one gives tortoise any love. Dragon, tiger, phoenix and kirin get attention, but poor old tortoise is stuck there in the north (a place tortoises would not like to live in) with no one to keep him company but his snake.

Phoenix are birds in flame that are only good at dying. Dragons aside from being giant apex predator that are good at everything, also kill others using fire.

What is that? Does he even lift, bro, or is he a vegan dragon? All I'm saying is that Skinny McSmokemonster got beat up at Dragon School and was forced to give up his lunch money.

Nah vegan dragon is pic related.

I made a companions of tha dragon, then made him a she.

Looks like the poor thing had a hormone imbalance when it was younger and grew up deformed

w-why?

Why would you want this? (Ask not why I have the pic.)

So, after 90 years of adventuring in some of my favorite worlds and the Bee Movie I finally return to Earth.

Ms. Martian and Dr. Bees come with me; Ms. Martian because she's my wife, and Dr. Bees because he finds my power over bees inspiring. Nick Valentine returns to the world of Fallout, bidding me farewell, and resumes work as a detective in the new government set up by the Minutemen. Johnny Blaze also returns to his world, so he could protect it from Mephisto's plans.

Tragically, Dr. Bees died of an overdose of prescription Tylenol only a few weeks after our return to Earth. He was 46.

I brought with me most of the secrets of pre and post war Fallout, as well as some of the advanced science of Marvel and DC; over time, I'll leak them to the public, starting with Fallout's cybernetics and medicines before moving on to robotics, Hybridization, and then other engineering stuff. If it starts to look like it's being misused, I'll intervene.

Other than that, I'll spend time designing my Pocket Realm. I'll populate its worlds with all the beings I'm capable of creating with science, and with anybody I choose to come with me; I'll also use Ritualist to allow others to come to it, once this planet is on its way out.

It's not the opportunity to go on your own Jumpchain, but I'll also probably make worlds for a few of you guys, too.

1. Because I could.
2. I have a weakness for dragons.
3. Biology manipulation FTW!

Give me multiple reasons why you havent summoned the strongest berserker, Paul Bunyan

youtu.be/5Rb4Tf66zr4

???

Can someone explain exactly how first magic works? And if possible what you need to do to pull it off? What setting is it from? I just have seen the term tossed around so I was interested.

It's in Val's Fate Jump. Look in the notes section. It's discussed pretty clearly there.

>Implying that a dragon needs to be fatter than that.

I bet you are one of those flying meat balls that can't even use magic.

>Not the best version of Paul Bunyan

How should I interpret Jojo vampires?
Their only weakness is the sun but they're fine when out when other stars are out in the night.
Should I interpret it as 'only the jojo sun harms them' or 'only the nearest sun harms them'.
What about settings like kingdom hearts which don't have suns where all the stars are other worlds?

An FGO JP event right now during the second anniversary of the game is releasing 1* rarity Paul Bunyan (girl) in promotion with the Riyo FGO Manga collection that Paul Bunyan was from, which looks something like this

Strongest was me having a giggle that a servant was memed into existance

Use common sense. It's not just suns, but full spectrum lights and hamon. If they encoutner that then they get rekt, otherwise they're fine.

The Sun is the source of all life on Earth, that's why it effects vampires, who are unliving abominations.

I had a very laissez faire outlook about the whole thing, on account of being a jumper in a setting where everyone took literary consistency very seriously.
So I was just kindof like, "lol k" about it. Like phonetexting levels of flippant.

The plants didn't much care for me. Plus I was technically a SUE, which never wins you any favors. But I overcame it on a lot of agents, on account of I bought all the drugs and wasn't shy about sharing them. Bleeprin is in pretty high demand, y'know?

I tended to surprise people with random gifts of food or baubles, blew off work any chance I got, and was not known for being very dependable for anything but killing Sues. Because after some consideration, I decided to take that drawback.
But, I mean, I didn't kill ALL of them. Sometimes I retained them for SCIENCE! And because of that, I was labelled "cute but psycho", which I feel is a massive oversimplification of my contributions.
Like, I thought the whole point was to get rid of Sues? It's not my fault if people start vomiting when I do it.
Pussies.

> "We're about to get all Event Horizon up in here. Director's Cut!"

On an unrelated note, I would highly recommend the Sue Souffle in the Protector's cafeteria. It's quite delicious.

>Is it just jc-lite?
Kindof! It's a shared universe, like, you write fanfics about a world where you kill Mary Sues in fanfic, with this whole organization devoted to it in-universe.
It's pretty dumb.

You see, Nazi's had a machine at the end of part 3 that used UV rays to kill them at night. So, what kills them is high-doses of UV rays. Other stars are too far to do any meaningful harm.

But why Berserker? I would have thought Rider.

Actually part 2 but yeah I forgot about that.
That makes sense now, i'll keep that in mind once I get around to my write chain.

I mean part 2.

Okay can you imagine something? That thing exists, even if only in your imagination, right? The First Magic is the act of summoning that thing, you have to start the engine but once you do you can summon virtually anything. The big problem with this is that Val states that you either have to be god or spend tens of thousands of years to summon even the most dull stuff in any quantity, not really I'm overestimating there by a bit but the training time on this stuff is really long and gets exponentially longer.

Rider Paul Bunyan would likely also have Babe and she's gotta be some kind of Divine Beast.

Luckily we have jumps that cut down years to hours or seconds. Also, some of them in Val's jumps.

Get the Ultimate Life Form and turn your First Magic into the Ultimate First Magic.

Because that's what Riyo decided, look if the other 2 Riyo servants come in it'll be time to give up on logic and reasoning and just accept that Fate/ does what it wants

Does that Paul Bunyan get a chainsaw

>Spoiler
That literally isn't how that works.

>"We're about to get all Event Horizon up in here. Director's Cut!"
There's about 8 minutes of cut footage that didn't even make it into the director's cut. Some of it's really gory, some of it is just really neat that they had to cut because of time constraints.
denofgeek.com/us/movies/event-horizon/265839/exploring-the-deleted-footage-from-event-horizon

Japan, could you not

>you either have to be god or spend tens of thousands of years to summon even the most dull stuff in any quantity
>not really
Ya think. You're exaggerating grossly here, admitting it but not clearifying just how much you are. That sort of time was mentioned when talking about noble phantasms, not 'dull stuff'.

Seriously, read the jump's notes section, or you are going to get misinformed.

Still one of my favorite movies to date. Too bad we didn't get to see what those scenes would have looked like edited into the movie.

But that's actually how it works. Once you understand how something works, you can upgrade it.

Is there any way to turn a Reality Marble into an actual dimension?

Look at the FGO video, Bunyan does melee with a Babe that's the size and shape of like basketball

I mean I know we've had Fou, the deadliest killing machine of all time, but still

Fate/ Stay Night jump notes. Read them because anons couldn't tell you the truth even if their fucking lives depended on it.

You mean the First Magic from Fate?

The First Magic is the first among True Magic. In the Nasuverse most Magi use Magecraft which is basically sufficiently analyzed magic that allows them to reproduce supernatural feats of varying levels of absurdity (ranging from making something unnaturally tough to literally "I reject your reality and substitute it with my own"). However, all of Magecraft can be explained. It follows rules. True Magic does not. It's total bullshit. It has no rules. It just works. It does completely impossible shit without any explanation.

The First True Magic is the Denial of Nothingness, which works on the principle that nonexistence is ridiculous and that therefore everything must exist everywhere at all times without exception. It works by summoning literally anything that you can imagine without any restrictions. The sole limitation is that advancing your understanding and mastery of the First Magic requires incredible investments of time and effort. True Magic is already basically impossible for a normal person to learn because it works on nonsensical principles that are completely alien and impossible to understand for a sane person. But the First Magic is even more ridiculous than the others, making it much harder to learn. But the trade-off is that the First Magic, because you're basically summoning something that's already there, costs hilariously puny amounts of magical energy to perform crazy powerful effects. As in literally snapping your fingers and burning a mid-level spell's worth of energy to create a city-atomizing explosion or summon a mountain-sized meteorite to hurtle towards your enemy at thousands of times the speed of sound.

>Paul Bunyan
>chainsaw
I'm pretty sure that's a crime, like having John Henry use a steam drill.

>Noble Phantasms
>not dull stuff
Yeah, sure thing, user. Noble Phantasms are so interesting. Look, they might be powerful, but that doesn't mean they're not dull.

It's Japan being Japan again.
