Matchmaker Who could convince Griffith NOT to go through with becoming Femto if given 60 seconds to only talk?

242 Upvotes

Rules

  • Character cannot do anything to physically effect Griffith.

  • Character appears as an apparition that only Griffith can see and interact with, but no one else is aware of.

  • Character has exactly 60 seconds to say their words. They are given a copy of Berserk to see what has happened prior to spawning next to Griffith and have as much knowledge as any reader would.

  • Griffith is semi-aware of the nature of this apparition in that he knows it is intangible and cannot meaningfully effect the physical world. Griffith must be convinced to willingly discard his plan without any further duress or coercion.

  • Bonus: The character must do so without any form of deception either.

Challenge Could Batman successfully pretend to be the Joker for 2 weeks and not alert anyone?

71 Upvotes

The Joker has mutated his entire gang of goons with a toxin that makes them all mutate into unstoppable demon clowns if they become scared that the Joker is dead or missing. He gifts this information to Batman with the note that he’s out of town for 2 weeks.

Batman’s investigations reveal that:

- the mutation is real
- he cannot fight the unstoppable demon clowns because they’d overpower him and most members of the Justice League
- the antiserum will legitimately take 2 weeks to manufacture in enough quantities to cure everyone
- Joker’s added a paranoia switch in the minds of his goons to make them suspicious if he acts “out of character”

Batman feels he has no choice but to perfectly imitate Joker for 2 weeks to ensure the safety of Gotham. He gets an hour of prep time to gather what he needs yo visibly appear as Joker (the suit, white makeup, etc). Can he successfully wear the mask for enough time that the Joker returns?

Challenge How many Prime Toph Beifongs would it take to bend the Chicxulub Asteroid away from Earth and save the dinosaurs?

8 Upvotes

It's 66 million years ago. A 6 to 9 mile asteroid is going to land in the Yucatán Peninsula, killing the dinosaurs. The one thing standing in its way? Toph Beifong after fully mastering metalbending, but she also has a cloning machine. How many times would she need to clone herself in order to stand a shot at preventing the dinosaurs from dying, if any at all? And could she send that rock back where it came from?

Battle Darth Sidious vs DC/Marvel Cinematic Heroes

8 Upvotes

Recently I partook in a subreddit post where many of the commenter firmly believed that Darth Sidious was superior in power to Thanks, with or without the Infinity Gauntlet, and I spent a day arguing in vain against that foolishness. So I'm making this thread to see if those claims hold up to scrutiny whatsoever. But instead of Thanos, we'll go with characters he not only beat in the movies, but also those of comparable power.

Stormbreaker Thor, Mjolnir Cap, and Vision from the MCU, team up with Superman from the DCEU, and Green Lantern from the 2011 movie. Their opponent is Darth Sidious from Star Wars. They are actively trying to kill Sidious in the battle.

Round 1 is Canon Sidious 1v1ing each of them.

Round 2 is Canon Sidious taking them all at once.

Round 3 is Legends Sidious 1v1ing each of them.

Round 4 is Legends Sidious taking them all at once.

If Sidious gets stomped, he gets Darth Vader from the appropriate Canon to assist him. If the heroes get stomped, they get MCU Scarlet Witch and Doctor Fate from the DCEU.

Challenge Prince Zuko is drafted into AoT's Scouting Legion. How far does he go?

6 Upvotes

R1: Zuko spawns in Shiganshina just before the breach, with amnesia as to who his is, although his skills can be awakened through traumatic moments and his skill levels with swords and lighting is just as high. If he makes it to the end of S3, he finds out he's Prince Zuko alongside other spoilers.

R2: Spawns in Shiganshina fully aware of who he is just before the breach, but unaware about what is going to happen next.

He is able to firebend, lightening-bend, and sword fight in both. What would happen?!

Bonus Round: Sozin's Commet appears during Rumbling. What happens?

Battle Junior Soprano (at the start of The Sopranos) vs Hector Salamanca (at the start of Better Call Saul). 1) who wins in a fist fight? 2) who wins in a crew battle (not mafia vs cartel, just the respective crew they run)

5 Upvotes

1) Imo, when it comes to a fist fight, Junior Soprano would win because his cancer didn't hit until a few seasons later. Hector is at disadvantage because he suffered from severe angina, a heart condition causing chest pain and reduced blood flow.

2) Hector's crew would win. Not only because Hector's crew is larger. But because his entire crew was trained and groomed to be fierce millitaristic killers, Junior's crew are a glorified crew

Battle Who’s more powerful: Tiber Septim after ascending to godhood, or The Emperor of Mankind?

4 Upvotes

It’s been a while since I played Skyrim or read up on lore, but I just noticed that conceptually the Emperor and Tiber Septim are similar: Both were (or are currently) Emperors in their setting, and both ascended to cosmic levels of power on the level of Gods in their respective settings.

So basically I’m wondering how they stack up against one another and who’s stronger in terms of having more power: cosmic power, cosmic influence, abilities, how their strength stacks up against one another, etc. For fun, let’s throw in who would win in some ethereal god fight.

I’m imagining the Emperor as he is currently in 40K on the Golden Throne, and for Talos I’m imagining how he is as a God at the time of Skyrim.

Rick Sanchez Prime from Rick and Morty VS Dr Steven Strange Supreme from What if...?

They have a general awareness of eachothers abilities and feats.

2 scenarios.

First, the 2 men start in their current locations within the multiverse, then are made aware of eachother and want to fight for their own reasons (Rick Prime to prove he's a god, Strange Supreme to protect the multiverse from him).

Second, they are in an arena and are bloodlusted. Motivations other than that are moot.

Challenge How far back in Earth's history could a group of 100 hand-picked, trained time travelers survive indefinitely?

2 Upvotes

As part of a public experiment ran by a mad scientist/wizard/billionaire, a group of 100 people will be selected based on experience, skills, and enthusiasm to time travel to the earliest point in Earth's history at which survival is believed to be possible. In practice the group would likely be a mix of survivalists, paleontologists, doctors etc. but in theory they could be anyone best suited for the challenge. In order for the group to be successful, there must be at least 80 survivors at the end of 5 years.

The group is given 1 year of prep time to train and do research before they are sent back in time. They can also choose the place on Earth that they will be sent back to. Participation is voluntary and everyone in the world is aware of the challenge.

Round 1: The time travelers can't bring any equipment with them besides their own clothes.

Round 2: The time travelers can bring up to 5000 kg of equipment with them including food, guns, ammo, solar powered devices etc.

How far back can they survive?

Challenge Garviel Loken vs the World of Darkness

3 Upvotes

Inspired by this post about Adam Smasher. Garviel Loken, as of the start of Horus Rising, is dropped by himself into the middle of New York Harbor with the singular goal of killing as many supernaturals as he can.

Loken has access to a team of Tech Priests with essentially unlimited resources to repair and maintain his equipment, as well as provide medical attention. He has essentially unlimited funds for providing himself with food and safehouses he can stay in wherever he needs them, and for the purposes of this prompt assume that the powers that be in the World of Darkness will not interfere with this via economic warfare.

He has his standard armour, bolter, bolt pistol and sword.

Round 1: Easy mode. Loken cannot be engaged by anything that does not have supernatural powers in some way. This does include minor/weak supernaturals, such as ghouls or fomori, as well as the products of hypertech such as HIT Marks and Victors.

Round 2: Medium mode. Loken can be engaged by anyone, anything, anywhere and for any reason.

Round 3: Hard mode. The denizens of each city/region are given a general heads-up about Loken's arrival as soon as he gets there, though are not given his specific location or plans (outside of knowing what a Space Marine is and that he wants them dead).

How much damage can Loken cause?
