Hello and welcome to @weeklymaturedkira and @dailyhirosekoichi’s
(running from Oct 27th to Nov 3rd)
(a limited special adaptation of @kousakukawajiri’s parasite au)
The concept is simple! In this universe, there exists a species of parasitic “worm” that takes over a human host and dwells within it, destroying the host’s mind and using the body to consume other human beings in order to survive. Even worse, said creature also has the ability to “infect” other humans with pieces of itself, turning them into half-human/half-bug mutant hybrids. Awful!
Fortunately for the rest of humanity, these bugs can be hunted down and subdued with hamon, this universe’s primary form of pest control when it comes to these parasitic monsters. The Speedwagon Foundation employs and trains these bug hunters, supplying them with personalized hamon channeling weapons to match their battle styles, and sends out their members to take care of this underground threat across the globe.
In this event, you have four options for what sort of role you can have your character play!:
Parasite - The big guns. Parasites are the parasitic worms themselves, capable of taking over a body and making their own mutants. They have no special capabilities beyond being grotesque maneaters and their mutant creating powers.
Mutant - An unfortunate everyday citizen turned into a half-bug/half-human hybrid. However this manifests is completely up to you! They are loyal to parasites and will do anything to protect them. A mutant may be healed by a hamon healing specialist and reverted back into an ordinary human. They might even say thanks!
Bug Hunter - Dudes and dudettes from the Speedwagon Foundation who have been taught the hamon skills necessary to kill parasites and cure mutants. Some specialize in healing, some specialize in combat, and some can do both (though those are rare people and generally the old masters). Grab a weapon and get out there, recruits!
Civilian - An average everyday joe-schmoe who has no clue what’s going on (or maybe they do). At risk to become an infected mutant or an unfortunate host for a parasite of their very own. Do your best!
Feel free to check out the parasite au tag over @kousakukawajiri’s blog for ideas on how to create your character (though don’t worry about sticking to the world building there–consider this AU completely separate from that one)!
All JoJo ask blogs are welcome, including OCs and stands (feel free to make them human for this event–or bug, if you will. Regular stands do not exist in this universe). The event is meant to be very loose and open world, with the only rules being common sense (no godmodding, no being mean ooc, tag your nsfw and other triggers as necessary) and have fun!
Feel free to contact us for more info.
Please tag your pieces with #bdparasiteau !
