Captain Hammer, Plots, and YOU

First and foremost, here is Captain Hammer's permissions post. Check that out first!

I know some people like to be surprised as far as plots go, so to prevent unwanted spoilers, the details are in the cut below. If you hate spoilers and want a general idea of what to expect, the basic gist is that Captain Hammer is on-call to beat some ass and will generally stomp on villainous shenanigans if they take place in Genessia so long as I have the player's permission to do so.


The tough part about playing Captain Hammer is that he's either invincible, or he gets hurt and his psyche is forever shattered. As a villain character, that makes him kind of not-fun to deal with because there he is being all untouchable and an asshole. But bear with me. I have a plan.

What I'd like to do with this plot, and if everyone else is onboard, is to give Captain Hammer a character arc of his rise, and his fall. And when he falls, he will fall HARD.

Part One: Ruling With An Iron Fist
Hammer likely won't let anything horrible happen in the boundaries of Genessia City. The other sub-cities are fair game, of course, as he doesn't have jurisdiction there. This doesn't mean you can't do ANYTHING fun, you'll just have to be very sneaky about it, or lure him away with a clever ruse. However, I'd like to ask that he generally be allowed to be all heroic and a shining beacon of awesome and hope for the local citizens. If you have a scene that will allow him to do this? I will love you forever.

Part Two: The Broken Tool
Villains aren't likely going to stand for Hammer's constant interference and douchebaggery. Come together, form a team plotting on how to hurt Hammer, and take him down. During this part, he will finally know what it is to feel pain, and he WILL run and abandon his duties like a bawling coward. You may all now hate him because omfg he will absolutely deserve it. Villains will be rewarded with free reign to cause chaos in the city. You could even take over completely and enjoy ruling it with your own iron fists!

Part Three: WHAT IS A MAN?
If there's anyone out there who hasn't completely given up on Captain Hammer, it's time to make him realize there's more to being a hero than just being the best. He'll have to get used to pain, and hardship, and treating people like they're not inferior groupies wanting him to save them all the time. He will be a pain in the ass, but he just might grow a little too. Maybe. There's no guarantee. C_C We'll see how the RP goes!


There's no way I could plan this out with concrete dates and such, but I'll give indications when and where I can. This is ultimately a PLAYER plot, not a mod plot, so you are absolutely free to object if it sounds terrible or restricting. You're also free to add ideas, or ask for work-arounds, or whatever! Feedback is hugely appreciated.

This is something I've been dying to do with Hammer ever since I first started playing him, and if I can make it happen here, it'll be a dream come true.

Oh dude, this sounds so cool! Yeah I'd be all for this, especially since I'm playing a villain myself so XD

I think a fight would work because between Hammer and Wily, Janos is already 48967897% done with shit already xD but then again he's more the subtle type so maybe if we could combine both? If there's a way we could, I mean.

Oh heck yes XD although his personal justification, at least to himself, will be he wanted to show his powers off to Yang xD

...Oh. My. God. Yes.

Especially as he might have hoarded the very few bits of info they have on him (ie- just going over and over the few posts he's made), trying to desperately glean some kind of clue on where he might be. because they still need to have Words, in his opinion. Words the include lots of weapons on him. XD

I am so in. And, you know, once he falls, he'll get some help from an unlikely source. Because Dean's issue with him is that he is an insufferable douchebag with a massive ego, as you know, and.... he's not seen all that much to justify the overblown image of self importance (or, what Dean thinks he has).

So once he's down and you can see there's more to him... he's gonna maybe feel a bit bad for him. And if there's an expert on pain? XD

I can probably think of a way to get marceline and/or God involved... hmm...

...Pre-warning (that you should know by now anyway XD) however: He is over the age of thirteen and has no bewbs (Which only get a little leeway) so he ain't gonna be fluffed XD It's going to be more a main course of 'Get your goddamned act together' with a side order of 'this is how you do better'. Because tough love is manly the act of the game.

There is also going to be the possibility of Dean breaking his hand on Hammers face (because he can punch an angel for being stupid and annoying and not really regret it until.... yeah, that bit happening. So.)

...[Whispering]Protip: Just don't tell him you want to bone her if you want any kind of help, asshat. XD

I think I said this in the chat at one point, but Nora's in if Hammer needs/wants/doesn't-want-but-she's-there-anyway a sidekick/helper. That and she can help bea--talk sense into him at the end there. :D
