damn right!
I've started writing up the stands finally, and I'm currently taking applications for players. Any lardpirate is invited or anyone who can directly contact a lardpirate, because hey, im cool with letting strangers goof off with us.
HOW TO APPLY:Name your character. If its going to be a musical reference, keep it as the name of the artist. a band or a song title has a good chance of conflicting with a Stand's name.Give your character some attributes. Nothing superhuman like being able to throw motorcycles, lets save that sort of thing for the Stands. If you want your character to have an unusual talent like a photographic memory, it will count against your Stand's powers. It's totally cool if you want to play as yourself.You don't get to pick your stand. Do you think Koichi got to decide his stand could create comic book sound effects in real life when he got shot through the neck with the meteorite arrow? NO. so you dont choose either.This does not take place in the jojo's bizarre adventure universe or even the steel ball run universe, so dont go naming yourself Joestar or Zeppeli. This just borrows the comic's theme and the idea of stands.Again, you dont get to pick your stand. I know someone's gonna try it.You can however make your Stand's battlecry. Not sure what that is?

Your Stand and You

Your stand can operate in the same general area as you are, limited to the hex you are standing on in the map. If your stand has the "Stretching" power, then it can move that many hexes away from your physical body unhindered. However, if your physical body moves away from your stand when your Stand is already at maximum range, it will be recalled to you. Use this wisely if you need to get out of a rough spot, but also remember that you'll have to spend time moving your stand back in to position if you recall it on accident.
Any damage your stand takes, you take as well. This counts for BODY and STUN damage. However, your Stand does not feel the effects of Stun damage. If your Stand is destroyed, you are rendered unconcious and your stand is disabled until the next game. In the case of extremely durable stands, if BODY damage from your stand exceeds your own, you will be unable to move or defend yourself but still able to control your stand until you recall it. Using your stand again in this state will make you immobile again.
Anything your stand can pick up with its senses, you can also perceive. This includes things that only your stand would notice like a sneak attack from behind, if your stand has the danger sense talent.
Only yourself and other stand users can see Stands. Don't try to intimidate some jerk on the street by doing feint punches with your stand. He won't know that theres a fist three millimeters away from his face. You can however bend a lamppost in half behind you or explode a fire hydrant while staring him down. Or if you happen to be Dio, trick the guy into stumbling back into the car you're sitting in every time he tries to run away.
