Hey hey. What would happen if Cap'n got Masked. Masked Were Eyeless Dog

THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING IDEA... I know for sure I'd want something strange to happen if Cap'n ever got masked.

At first, I was thinking that being an entity makes them immune, but I felt like that'd be a cop out. (I still think entities would be more lenient with Cap'n for the most part since she reeks of "fellow monster" vibes)

So after some discussion, I've come up with an alternate idea: the classic "I'm not stuck in here with you, you're stuck in here with me".

I imagine that the masked left her alone at first, but after a while, they hunted her down and, despite having that dog in her, they overpowered Cap'n (but they got fuuucked up in the process).

And now, unfortunately for them, her weredog brain makes any masked entities around her go bonkers, chasing down employees on all fours and masking them violently. (It'd also be quite unpleasant for the masked as the hivemind is used to swaying those in its influence to do ITS bidding, not the other way around)

However I think it'd be fun if it also inversely affected her weredog form. When Cap'n turns, the hivemind suppresses the noise that easily irritates it and makes it more of a hunting dog, bringing employees to other masked to have them be turned.

But yeah the tl;dr is Cap'n makes mimics act more like dogs, the mimics make the weredog act more like a mimic!

Haha, these are fun! I think people have brought up the PQ2 codenames before in suggestions for what codenames returning characters might be given, but this list feels even more thorough re: nicknames, and the ones that just come from their names (like our Phantom Idols in P5X canon) are a nice touch, too.

Though I have a feeling some of them might push back on some of these (ex. "Geezer" for Junpei, "Kenny" for Ken, "Hana" for Yosuke, haha)! That makes them all the more fun, though.

(Also, I love that you included Metis!!)

My headcanon is that Miku is an Anti-Shadow Weapon that went rogue and became an Idol

Yeah sure why not

I think she has the power of the Universe

[pokeology]

Did your stats improve though?

I feel moderately worse if anything.

Alternate; Spider-Fiend 2099?

So. Might have gotten a little carried away. Also consider this a Spider-Fiend reveal because I'm like 99% sure I've never posted his design anywhere:

OG on the left, 2099 Variant on the right.

I actually think a 2099 variant would be super interesting - because I think he'd still have an organic suit that Mordred (demon buddy the name is definitely going to change) gave him.

All his villains and some allies too would probably have really high tech suits so when a villain goes to hack his suit he just starts laughing because he's immune to any of that. I think the themes of technology vs nature (if you want to call demon stuff nature) would be a really cool topic to explore :]

Few notes on the 2099 design:

Even though it's an organic suit, it has a neon light glow effect. This is so that he blends in better with the overall environment - as I imagine his city (I forget the name 💀) would have a lot of neon lights. And yes it is Tron inspired.

The webs he would shoot would be that same neon purple.

The logo didn't turn out too well admittedly (there are few things I want to fix but for a first pass I'm happy with this) but it's supposed to be the same as the one on the left just sleeker and has less detail.

The horns and tail don't actually glow.

I feel like he'd be a bit more serious in Universe 805 - 2099 (temporary name) and so his eyes would be less expressive than his original variant (similar to how Miguel is a little less expressive in the movie)

This actually applies to both variants but Fiend tends to go out at night a lot more hence the dark designs. I also in general prefer when spiderman designs are more on the simple side (think venom spiderman) so that's why both only have two colours (black and purple)!

Black and purple are his colours because a) black = blends in more at night and in general is more intimidating and b) purple = not a colour found a lot in nature so it fits his otherworldly demon powers. I also like purple.

I know a spiderman variant with a tail might be a bit weird but it adds to the silhouette and gives him more of a demonic vibe overall imo!

37?

Wondering about the view from that door

[allhailweegee]

Hello friend! Would you mind donating money to this paper shredder? It's very hungry and I've been having trouble feeding it recently :-(

Oh yeah, dude, no problem, I trust you, I'm sure it's going to a good cause! :)

[trash-llama]

I forgot that Topher existed 💀💀💀

Hahahaha honestly same 🤣The sparest of them all!

[tag-that-oc]

Sometimes a family is the prince and princess of a kingdom that just had a bloody coup, their retainers who have a rivalry, a former royal guard, the royal guard's unreasonably jacked grandma, a dragon who can Shapeshift into a human, a thief who stole their hearts, the mage assassin who they adopted, and a villager who is uncomfortably comfortable with killing

did that villager do the coup

Pangolin Tim.. I love himb...

THANK YOU!! I've been affectionally calling him "PangoTim". ;v;)!! Weirdly enough, he's kinda been the favorite (including with me! IDK WHY! He's been my fave design so far!)

Anyways here's more of this ant-eating fool!

[houndfaker]

Wait if Nyx Avatar has Ryoji's slick-back in canon

Does that mean Yukari!Nyx has her bob

great question! do you want to get scared

[p5x-theories]

I was a bit conflicted at first I'm kinda glad they slowed down the updates and I hope that the future arcs follow the same 5-6 months per main story palace structure as the Power Plant Palace

I wonder if they'll start teasing us with art of Polter soon...?

Honestly, I'm fine with whatever pace the developers set, as long as it's a reasonable workload for them! I'm definitely glad that they're slowing it down when they need more time, for sure; I wonder if it'll stay slow, or if it's the climax/boss fights of each chapter that will particularly take longer? I can imagine things like all the new models, animations, and programming required for those parts might take longer than the more mundane scenes earlier in each chapter... I suppose we'll see as time goes on!

I do hope we start getting more teasers for Polter soon, though, I'm right there with you... can you believe it's been well over a year since the second beta test introduced us to her? I feel like it'll be the end of an era when I can finally graduate her off of the "future thieves" post and give her her own individual one!

I'm guessing we won't be seeing any teaser art of her prior to Version 3.2.1 finishing off chapter 3, but hopefully they don't keep us waiting too long after that, haha!

One of the reasons why Ken is one of my favorite P3 characters is because his character breaks are so jarring compared to everyone else. Like yeah, here's this kid! He's smart and studious, acts mature for his age, likes coffee and milk, idolizes Akihiko, etc.

Obviously you quickly learn that he's bad at keeping up the front of maturity. He ADORES Featherman, gets pouty when Makoto doesn't want to take him to the movie festival, he hates coffee, he's lactose intolerant and only drinks milk so he can get taller...

And then he starts getting secretive. Ah. He's driven entirely by revenge and is plotting murder-suicide. And when that doesn't work out. He allows himself to get killed. Only Shinjiro, the man who Ken was about to kill, sacrifices himself to save his would-be murderer.

Ken is an amazing character and I fucking love the little guy. He's like if Akechi got the help he needed.

I just REALLY wish that every conversation about him on the internet didn't eventually go into that part of P3P.

Yeah it sucks that it's overshadowed because iirc the rest of his social link is good beyond that!

Ken's a fascinating character and I love him so much you know

AFTER YOU AND WHO DID IN JOHTO?!

I have never been to Johto in my life.

[princekirijo]

How do you think Riku would react to being afflicted with an Ailment? IE getting Marin Karin'd

Oh that's an interesting question... I think his reaction can roughly be split into two categories:

This is a mild inconvenience to me and I will keep fighting regardless, status ailments in this category are: freeze, burn, shock, forget, confuse and possibly dizzy.

Please let me never experience this again that was the most terrifying experience of my life: sleep, fear, rage, despair and brainwash.

Yes he is more terrified of experiencing a human emotion than he is the feeling of being on fire for a period of time. Yeah he is totally fine why do you ask.

The only exception to this is the mouse ailment which to be honest I think he would fine that pretty funny.
