DrKrash's Fight! Builds

Post by drkrash »

This is my thread for posting characters for Fight! The Fighting Game RPG. Here are some guidelines as to how I am doing this.

1) Every build is essentially an interpretation. Since my game is not known by many, I decided to keep these builds fairly simple and easy to use. I’d rather have 10 playable builds available than 2 “arcade-perfect” builds, for example. If you don’t like how I built a move and think there is an important Element missing, change it. Many moves have extra Increased Damage Elements that could be easily exchanged for something else.
2) Power Levels in Fight! are not exactly like Power Levels in M&M. For game balance purposes (both in video games and in the RPG), it is not at all unreasonable that all the Fighters would be the same PL. But that doesn’t work as well when trying to build a “sourcebook” for a setting, taking into account the differences in narrative importance between characters. Therefore, I will post how I determine the PLs for each character in a setting as each game comes up.

This first set of builds will be the King of Fighters, the Orochi saga, which encompasses KOF 95, 96, and 97.

1) Normally, it would be most appropriate to have different versions of these characters for each game, as their moves change subtly through different games. However, I have decided to combine the characters’ move lists for all 3 games, and I have chosen the most common move level for each move.
2) Each video game also has its own fighting system, which in Fight! terms, means different game options. At the moment, I don’t know if I am going to also explain the game system for each game. For now, I’m going to focus on statting up the characters themselves.
3) I am using the following guidelines for KOF Power Levels.
a. The protagonists of their own video game series will be PL 8.
b. Characters that are in other game series as well as KOF will be PL 7.
c. Characters that have multiple KOF appearances but who are unique to the series will be PL 6.
d. Those few characters that only have a single canon appearance in a storyline game of KOF will be PL 5. There will be very few of these.

I probably have some other guidelines that I should include here, but I think this will be sufficient for me to get started.

Terry is protagonist of the Fatal Fury series. He is somewhat inexplicably on the “Italy” team in KOF 95, but afterwards is just part of the Fatal Fury team (though there was a scene in Italy in the 2nd Fatal Fury anime, but that seems like a stretch).

He and his brother Andy seek vengeance on Geese Howard for murdering their father. The original Fatal Fury takes place in Southtown, and the tournament there was called the King of Fighters tournament, but in the Orochi saga, Terry is not one of the main heroes.

He has a fast, aggressive fighting style. His personality is fairly generic “good guy,” though he is warmer and more sociable than, for example, Ryu.

Terry also has my favorite video game voice in all fighting games.

I'll gladly take requests; otherwise, the next guy will be a less prominent character probably.

Sweet- was looking forward to seeing this one. This will greatly assist me in figuring out the Fight! system. Took me a sec to figure out what "ID" and "IA" meant- maybe switch them to "Inc. Accuracy" or "I.Accuracy" or something, for easier reading?

Thanks a lot, Jab; I'll make those adjustments to the format.

Clearly my first big mistake as a builder was starting my thread on Election Day...

I've seen Fight! mentioned before and always wanted to check it out, but never got around to it. Think I'm going to have to change that, especially with it being only $7.50 on drivethrurpg.net at the moment.

I don't know a whole lot about the system, but I did recently read blog where someone builds Mario as an example of character creation. Terry looks good, he was always a favorite of mine.

Thanks, L-Space! On the Fight! Google group, someone has posted an entire campaign setting with all the characters from Zelda as combatants.

In an attempt to mix up the characters, if no one wants someone in particular, I think Chang will be next - but I'll still take requests if people have them.

Just as long as you make sure to point out that Choi is the WORST CHARACTER EVER when you get to him, and that I died against him like 20 times until I learned the "trick" to beating him (he's so hard to hit that attacking him is pointless. Just stand still, and HE will attack YOU. THEN you can just counter him!).

Also, here's hoping for the American Sports Team at some point :).

Geese Howard would be great and I can't remember if Ryuji Yamazaki showed up in the Orochi saga, but if so I'd like to see him too.

Yamazaki is one of the "8 heads" of Orochi! Though he doesn't give a single f*** about that...

EDIT: Also, I vote for Geese and Krauser as soon as possible ^_^

Geese is the smooth criminal of the Fatal Fury series, though he plays a very small role in the Orochi saga, only appearing in KoF ‘96. He teams up with his half-brother Krauser and Art of Fighting’s Mr. Big, partially for his own amusement, but also to try to learn what the deal is with this “Orochi” stuff. In the end, Mr. Big tries to have him killed, but fails.

In a Fatal Fury version of these builds, Geese should properly be a special PL 10 villain; he is extremely dangerous and an excellent example of SNK Boss Syndrome. This build represents only his KoF appearance.

His combat style is a little trickier to play, but has the potential to be properly annoying for his opponent. He needs to use Fighting Spirit to keep his Initiative high, but his Control should generally be high enough to consistently do Interrupts. Most of his attacks have Knocks Down, which should keep him in control of the momentum of the fight.

This morning, I tweaked Geese (which sounds filthy) significantly; I had accidentally deprived him of a lot of Fighting Spirit, I added more to his Narrative Skills, and changed one of his moves which allowed him to increase his Combo Skill quite a bit.

Same Geese, now with more badass.

One of the coolest things about Geese Howard is the fact that he uses a mostly defensive martial art style, but is still considered a major badass. 8-)

Awesome. You've started with two of my favorite characters ever.

If I could request a character? Yashiro (Orochi preferably). Definitely one of my favorite hybrid-grapplers in any fighter and just an overall bad-ass.

If possible, considering we have PREDITABLE! Geese here, could you give a brief explanation on how Interrupts work? I've been running play-tests with FIGHT! with a friend and Interrupts still confuse me a bit.

Thanks for doing these builds!
