    Is that straight up boxing or MMA?

    I was thinking straight up boxing. Although I'm sure with chris, he'd try kicking and turn it into a MMA fight.

    Plot twist:

    Chris was merely adopted by Borb all along -- they were too old to have a child.

    Chris' real parent? Something frozen and a trip to 1982 is involved.

    What if Chris had the same kind of hat Mario uses in Odyssey?

    Chris would forcibly put it on a pretty woman he meets on the street and then play with 'her'self and never take it off.

    I think I have one. For this one, I would ask that people take a neutral stance on CWCville as a totalitarian state, and instead treat it as a regular American city with superpowered occurences.

    What if you were a denizen of CWCville? For the sake of this question, we can pretend that Chris himself is not really a recurring character. Would you have superpowers? What would your role be in society, if you had one? (You can't be Mayor, but other positions would be fine if you wanted them.) What would your CWCville persona's personality be?

    To convey what I'm asking a bit more clearly, I'd like to give an example. Keep in mind the following setup and level of verbosity is not required.
    ****
    -Name: Scalar

    -Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

    -Personality: Aloof and generally uninterested in the superheroic exploits the city experiences on a semi-regular basis, I would have a rather blunt and short reply to everything someone could say to me. The Combo would probably find me rude because of my bluntness, which they would find even more off-putting due to the apparent glee I use my bluntness, but eventually find that I might have some good advice in my calm jabs at their dignity every once in a while. I would be the kind of person that doesn't put much importance on a character's feelings about a situation, instead opting to think of the situation as if it had an objective best outcome. For this reason, I would be harder to surprise than the average citizen. While the members of the Combo consider things like love and friendship as top-priority values, I would probably put them somewhere in the middle.

    Technically speaking, I would have the mindset of a hero, but thanks to my set of powers and experience from life, I would often refuse to outright help the residential heroes for one reason or another. I would put the well-being of the world before my own if I felt like I needed to, but as it turns out I often don't have to. Due to my position as a senior hero, someone that considers themselves retired, I would take pleasure in the little things, such as the gratification in holding down an honest business, or finding the kind of chinaware the neighbors have been telling me they wanted, or trying to find a skill I haven't tried yet. And, again, these would take precedence over stepping in to fight Graduon, because I would find the situation not in need of my assistance and rather uninteresting to begin with. If approached about this, with someone saying that Graduon would try to stand in my way of everyone trying to find a boyfriend-free girl or whatever, I would reveal my almost utilitarian mindset towards romantic relationships. I don't like excuses or incompetence, so if the heroes were to show either, I'd give them shit for it in my own way.

    When it comes to strangers, I would default to that of a well-mannered, if soft-spoken gentleman from the city's upper class. I would have an eccentric flair to myself, finding interest in things that sometimes make no sense, or that I showed no interest in before. I would be rather arbitrary with my adherence to decorum, and will often use my otherwise deadpan demeanor to pull off pranks when people least expect them. I would be an intelligent man with an interest in science as a rule, but the neighbors often don't appreciate the experiments, since they are always ambitious and tend not to end that well.

    My speaking style would be rather noteworthy by how unremarkable it is. I would speak in a bit of a tone that is equal measures satisfied with life and a bit eerily monotonic in regular conversation, and my preferred way of attacking someone's pride would be in the form of questions. I would also be a man of few words, only using the words I would need to convey my message to others. I would also have a subtle Scottish accent, just because I think it would be cool.

    -Role in Society: I would be a real-estate mogul in the newer segment of the city called the Rothschild District, an extension of the city that I personally funded the creation for in order to attract and house the city's upper class. This would mean that I would serve the same purposes in a story as the Penguin would in Gotham City. In addition, I would be a bit of a newer celebrity in town, since, as previously touched upon, I would be a former hero who had several adventures saving the United States and its allies. However, for reasons I'll make up later, I decided to put my days as a professional hero behind me and try to live in relative retirement. When it comes to defending the city, well, I wouldn't. My reasoning would be that I should let the young 'uns have their time in the spotlight, and instead I would focus on things like damage control, if I ever get involved at all.

    -Powers: While Federal records would list me as controlling the elements, I have since evolved my powers to control over matter and energy at a fundamental level, and the records just went unrevised since the Bush administration, because reasons. I'll also display signs of an inhuman physiology, but the exact details will be purposefully left vague so I can add a bit of creepiness to my character. Finally, since Chris has been going on about psychic powers, I think I will also have my Inner Eye opened. However, the story for that one is that it's been opened forcibly during a battle, and I have since been able to see the entirety of time and most alternate realities. This will be my excuse for basically having a character a bit like a sardonic, almost uppity version of Doctor Manhattan as a lolz-seeking troll.
    ****
    Again, don't feel like you need to go into this level of detail here. You can go as far as you want in order to make the person you want to be if you went to CWCville. Just remember a few things.

    1) You're allowed to get superpowers. Just be sure to have an interesting counterbalance to them. Just for the fun of it.
    2) You need to have some role in the society around you. It can be "homeowner that complains about his lawn being ruined by Jerkops" for all I care, but it has to be something.
    3) You don't have to base your CWCville-self on how they would interact with the Sonichus and Rosechus. However, if you find that it helps to come up with interesting personality traits, feel free to do so.
    4) If you like, you can also add how your character views the other characters given here. However, their relationship should be stated somewhere.
    5) We're not allowed to say that our characters run around stomping out the lights of the heroes of CWCville. If anyone wants to make a character with a grudge, or even a character with psychotic serial-killer tendencies, feel free. Just, none of the "I GO ROUND AND SLICE OFF SONICHU'S HEAD AND MAIL IT TO CHRIS' MOM!!" That's not fun.

    You've spent way too much time thinking about this. Certainty way longer than Chris has on the entire sonichu/ponychu series

    I'd probably immigrate to the USA just a few miles away.

    And assuming I can't just leave the great dictator's land?
    I go to the garage and test the rafters to make sure they're strong enough to support the weight of my body. I then google 'how to tie a noose...'

    This is really autistic but I'll play along. (if this thing goes any further, I suggest making a separate topic)

    I'm a non-superpower human working at the CWC-ville tourism council. After years and years of trying to promote CWC-Ville as a fun and varied destination, I become disgruntled and resentful towards the sonichus and rosechus insistence of only focusing on romantic love and friendship in CWC-ville, while attacking and refusing any other form of city promotion and event. Needless to say, this has made me very unpopular with he chaotic combo.

    As a result, I've come to hate any and all discussion on friendship and love (not the concept itself, though). Furthermore, this has led me to work as a spy for the resistance/PVCC.

    Sure, he has the power to fight on the level of a god but he also has a body made of hog fat and the physical endurance of the world's fattest man. At best he's a glass canon.

    What if chris woke up one morning and found out Bob really was the ousted dictator of a 3rd world nation, and he had a legit claim to a position of power?

    He would demand his legions of fans rise up and overthrow the corrupt leadership and install him as the one HONEST AND TRUE ruler.

    Then he would decend into stress and whine when it did not happen.
