DoofQuest- a Disney Villains Victorious CK2-Style Quest

Reader mode
Honestly it seems as though to kill a toon you need to do so in a way that grants not only narrative weight to them actually dying, but also make it funny for them to die, use dip, or to use overwhelming force to overcome their rubberhose nature.

Do it in some sort of ironic way, take Doom for instance, he was canonically killed by the dip that he intended to use to destroy Toontown, fittingly ironic and with narrative weight. we could probably use dip to kill him after we discover that he's actually a toon but there's another way available to us as well. Invoke the rule of three, he has killed two people by dropping a piano on them from a great height, flip the joke by having him be the one that's hit with a piano. I'm not sure that would necessarily work, but it's probably a better shot than just trying to overwhelm him.

Nega-Quest: The Calisota Chainsaw Massacre- Scream

    • All right, the kid's proven himself useless. Time to get down to it yourself and-

    Oh, the spook's already driven half a block away.

    Sigh.

    You pop out of the next alley, chainsaw swinging.

    Martial Check:
    79+72+25-50(playing around)= 126
    Russ Contest:
    62+14+12+10=98
    Success!

    The suit is forced to slip into a rough slide to avoid being decapitated, allowing you to leer at him as he scrapes past.

    "Could you be a doll and stop running? I have places to be you know! I have to be in Cape Suzette this afternoon, and it'll be a long drive. Heh. HAHA! Long drive. Heh. Anyway where was I? Oh yes."

    Martial Check:
    28+72+25-50(playing around)=75
    Russ Contest:
    70+14+12+10=106
    Failure!

    You manage to pop the motorcycle's front tire, and bask in the success of grounding your foe… until, quite unfairly, he takes to the air! The attack was pointless!

    "Wh- motorcycles can fly now? C'mon!"

    You think for a moment. You can't have him getting away now! You need something to knock the sense back out of him. You chuckle as you pull out a canister of swirling green particles. Time for an old favorite.

    "Suck Gas, Do-Gooder!"

    Martial Check:
    87+72+25=184
    Russ Contest:
    75+14+12+10+21=132
    Success!

    You watch in delight as your patent-pending Fear Gas spreads out of the canister and into the surrounding neighborhood. Shrieks and screams can already be heard from the surrounding houses!

    "Wh- what's goin' on?" Goofy asks, gradually coming to. He looks down, seeing the 30-foot drop magnified a thousand fold by the effects of your own special blend, and faints again. Perfect. Now all you need to do is watch as the suit shrieks like a monkey and crashes into a building.

    …

    Huh. Why isn't it working? You narrow your eyes for a second, confused as to why he's not screaming his head off. In fact all he's done is stop his fly-cycle in midair. The dose can't be wrong, this stuff is potent enough to affect a Zootopian elephant!

    Learning Check: Why isn't the suit reacting?
    DC 80 needed
    39+23+26+20 (Fear Gas Specialty)=108
    Success!

    Well. Most people have a flight-or-fight response. If he's stopped flying, then…

    Wait.

    Agent Russ Martial Check:
    87+14+12+10+40(Fear is in control)=163
    Negaduck Contest:
    59+72+25-50(playing around)=106
    Failure!

    You hear a loud chirping sound as the whine of the suit's motorcycle increases in pitch, something that sounds very familiar. Right before you can put your finger on it a blinding beam of light shoots out from the front of the vehicle and catches you off guard.

    "We've got ourselves a wise guy, eh?" you growl, extricating yourself from the wreckage of a significant portion of the street. You push a dishwasher-sized chunk of asphalt off of yourself and glower. "Fine. Let's get d-"

    ...aaaaaand he's already two hundred feet in the air, moving westward as fast as the thing can take him.

    You let your rage simmer for a second before it dies down in the face of the encounter's end.

    "Well, this was a bust." You say aloud, anger reduced to mild irritation. "Where's my whipping boy?"

    "Your what?" Bradley asks.

    "Oh, you're not dead. All right then. Come on! We have an entire Cape to assault!"

    The wreckage of Goofy's home burns behind you.

    I wish we had had Agent P's Certified Fearlessness for it, probably would have helped. Also congrats Russ, you, well, didn't lose in a meaningful way to Negaduck.
     
    Well good that Negaduck choose to gas the neighborhood instead of well shooting at them. Because he got a lot of guns to go with the chainsaw.
     
    Everything went better than expected, thank god.

    ~Negaduck, once again, successfully fucked himself over. No major injuries on our side. He spent the whole thing fucking around as a side gig to his current scheme too, so since he didn't get serious he probably won't come after us until something else happened.

    ~Russ was in the fight, lost the fight, and lived. That's a big narrative thing, in a sequel fight if one should come up he's got more of an edge, especially if he pulls out the old "that trick won't work twice" or "after my defeat I prepared this technique/weapon just for you!" gimmick.

    ~Max has a nemesis. Said nemesis has good Martial but likely shitty everything else. Max is working on something that should boost his Martial, or at least make him less vulnerable from that angle - and it's unlikely his opponent is able to take control of a narrative in the way Toon fights tend to go. If we finish his training, this one might legitimately just not be that massive of an issue.

    ~Goofy... well, ok, he gets basically nothing out of this. We should probably let him do some Personals soon.

    Hold on. "Fear is in control"?

    The wording on this is strange. Fear is in control. Not "Afraid", "Filled with fear" or "Fight or flight".
    This reminds me of Inside out.

    Add that to the "Voices" he has or has not heard while using the astral projection talisman, I bet there is something funky going on with his emotions personified.
     
    I wouldn't say Negaduck really fucked himself over; his goal was to cause chaos and terror, and he did. He just didn't happen to succeed in murdering three specific individuals out of many.
