[X] Be Gossard.
-[X] Legend? Maybe not, but you are Gossard Briefs! The Greatest, the strongest, no matter what some idiot Dragon says. You'll just have to PROVE IT WRONG!!!
-[X] Reach for every last drop of power you have, focus it, and ASCEND! Show them your perfection!
-[X] Use Orange

That's kind of a bad idea. Orange is about denial.

Which means the belief that we are the strongest when we're not. That we ARE the legend despite all results pointing to the contrary. That No chumped up green guy who could get brainwashed could EVER defeat us. The belief that we don't need to prove anything. That we ARE The Legendary Saiyan

Basically, vegeta.

Yep, Vegeta's issue is he wanted to go Blonde, and rejected subconsciously the idea of False Super Saiyan. Or I could be trying to pave over a self-induced plothole.
 
You know if we encourage Gohan to beat the shit out of these fuckers and mention that Green Garlic called our mother a 'blue haired bitch' and tell him how much pain Gossard and (probably) Gottex went through when their potential got sapped, and that Gohan is our last hope to avenge our family and race. Would that be enough to make Gohan go Super Saiyan 2?

Gohan is strong enough to beat Garlic Jr right? Since I think his new cheating power level is in the 10,000 range?

Why don't we just go for Super Saiyan, surely were pissed off enough. After all this insignificant little prey thing just stole OUR power, OUR birthright, OUR Legend. He needs to pay, him and all his little minions need to be made to suffer for what they have done.

Wouldn't that be better then false Super Saiyan, that is what orange is right?

Super saiyan is actually grief converted into rage. And while I could see us being completely catatonic at losing our super sayain swagger. Not sure we're emotional enough to trigger which is why I went for the comparatively easier orange.

Gohan was thinking he lost his brother *us*. Goku was for losing Krillin. Vegeta was believing he'd never beat goku.

Edit:
Sure, if Gohan/Gottex/Bulma died. THEN we have an in for Super Saiyan. But without, not quite sure we're there yet.

Wait we're still at 384,000 PL (though it's probably dropping soon) we can still take out the trash mobs and hold Piccolo's aggro for a while so Gohan can focus on Garlic Jr. Why not try a write in where Gossard try to get Mr. Picoolo to snap out of it since in this quest Gossard is closer to Piccolo than Gohan.

??? What makes you think Gossard is closer to Piccolo than Gohan? If anything, Gohan is closer to us than Piccolo.

We're very family oriented baring Goku due to saiyan instincts.

He'd hit the rage requirements yes, but he wouldn't achieve the form. You need minimum one SS1 grade or 50/50 to do that (the easiest naturally is grade2 or Super Vegeta, followed by Trunk's roidmode and then Full Power 50/50)
And Garlic hit 10K around the time you landed. He is assuming the combined power of everyone he sapped and their Potential (though the Potential doesn't matter much mid-combat).

You can't hit Super Saiyan with Anger. It needs to be Grief (unless you have a Super Saiyan close ancestor, then other emotions are lesser but can be used to lower the emotional requirement to nothing over a period of years).
Grief at a person or a concept, but you get the form from Loss.
The Loss of your closest friend.
The Loss of your pride, the realization You Cannot Surpass Goku, that you are Not the Super Saiyan and never will be.
It is possible to hit SS here with the right write-in emotion, but Rage is not it.

And yes, Orange is False Super Saiyan, which is the mindset of Delusion. Denial of Reality.

Super saiyan is actually grief. And while I could see us being completely catatonic at losing our super sayain swagger. Not sure we're emotional enough to trigger.

You can be, if you word it right. But probably not, best to go for False.

??? What makes you think Gossard is closer to piccolo than Gohan? If anything, Gohan is closer to us than Piccolo.

He meant that Piccolo likes Gossard more than Gohan. Not that Gossard likes Piccolo more than Gohan.
Piccolo and Gossard have a deeper connection.

No I mean Gossard is closer to Piccolo than Bulma!Gohan to Piccolo. I mean the Briefs sibling relationship with Piccolo. I'm not saying that Gossard - Piccolo has tighter bond than Gossard - Gohan that's stupid.
I mean Gossard-Piccolo > Bulma!Gohan-Piccolo.

Hmm, how so. I didn't get that in the interactions.

I'm not sure it'd work either way, considering Original Timeline Piccolo bitch slapped Original Timeline Gohan anyway despite their closeness.

But I'm interested if I missed something.

Gossard and Piccolo subconsciously move closer together when meditating, before Yamcha, Krillin, Tien, Chiaotzu ruin their meditation.
Piccolo was suspicious of Gohan because he's too obedient, he's more open with Gossard because Gossard is also more open with his intention to kill Piccolo and return home.
Gossard still searches for Mr.Piccolo (though he can't recognize anyone except Gohan) even after he turns LEGENDARY Saiyan and went berserk for the first time.
 
Piccolo is 600,000 in Super mindset btw. Goku 250,000 before Kaioken.

6. Gottex (1,415 Base)

At the time of the fight:
Piccolo: 90,000 (540,000)
Tien: 90,000
Yamcha: 100,000
Krillin: 110,000
Chaotzu: 150,000
"One single Wish monkeyboy. A wish to solve all of my problems. I wished for the potential and the power of every True Martial Artist on the planet, and their descendants. And look what I got!" A casual flick of his wrist and a mountain in the distance detonates.

So Garlic JR has a power level of 701,415 (Stolen) + 10,000 he had before hand. Gohan should easily maul him unless Garlic's super form boosts his power to a crazy degree.

Piccolo thinks Gohan is a dagger, to Gossard's axe. Basically Gohan is a sneaky guy you couldn't turn your back to during their initial training, while Gossard you just needed to ignore his occasional attempted murder. Much more conducive to affection.
Also Piccolo resonated with Gossard's murderous impulses and the struggle both had with their evil halves, though obviously from different angles. Combined with the fact both spent much of their time meditating, while Gohan was directly taught how to shape Ki instead, meaning Piccolo spent more time in semi-telepathic subconscious contact with Gossard, while Gohan's ki signature is easier for Piccolo to track or recognize.
Piccolo is still tsundere for both, he just tracks Gohan more and is more (internally, tsundere remember) affectionate to Gossard.

So Garlic JR has a power level of 701,415 (Stolen) + 10,000 he had before hand. Gohan should easily maul him unless Garlic's super form boosts his power to a crazy degree.

Well, the Zfighters have trained since then (except Yamcha). But roughly yes.
So, basically a tough fight requiring a transformation before you are completely outclassed by the strengthening Makyan right? Sounds fun.
*grumbles about Gohan and his bullshit*

I would not be surprised if Gohan mastered SS mid combat and then went SS2 with how rigged Gohan's dice have been :p

There goes Gohan stealing Gossard's thunder again. Gossard is truly Vegeta now :p
 
Look on the bright side if we did become this Quest's Official Vegeta we'll get his Prince Of All Saiyans trait giving us +100%XP Boost when training to catch up/surpass our rival (Gohan). Which gives us an absolutely broken +350% XP Boost when training, yikes.

Don't even joke about that! He'll do it!
So, should I take a vote on changing Gossards name then? Sigh...
You guys are badass I swear haha.

[] Be Gossard
-[] Using whatever power you have left and your prodigious speed, kill the useless minions.
-[] Distract/Fight Mr. Piccolo while trying to make him remember you and Gohan, try and make him back to normal. Mr. Piccolo is strong, he shouldn't serve a weakling who need to steal powers from his betters.
-[] Remember the pain you felt when you loss your power, did Gottex feel that? Did she cry? DID THAT BASTARD MAKE HER CRY?!
-[] Use your grief for your loss, for your sister, for Mr. Piccolo who's been made to serve this cretin. Your rage will fuel you.

@lordchaos99 this a valid write-in?

"Oh it is such a rush! And to think, I was going to wish for Immortality first. But then you came along, with your aura of Death and Despair, your colossal Power! Of course, the Dragonballs on their own couldn't strip everyone, no many of you exceeded the strength imbued upon it's creation. But fortunately, I had it's creator here, ready and not-so-willing to improve them, a little Super kickstart. Give them a little, software patch, so to say. You'd know about that, little Briefs, son of that horrid blue-haired bit-"
You see red for a second, and before you realize it you are putting a fist through Garlic Junior's face. Only to pale when it simply shifts his head slightly, his eyes locked on you.
"-tch. Heh. Precocious Brat!" He punctuates the last word by burying his hand into your stomach.
"Leave my brother alone if you wish to live." You hear the call as a golden-haired Demi-Saiyan lands, within his palms two glowing orbs of Power form "The only, and I do mean sole, person allowed to inflict grievous bodily harm upon his physical or mental form is his twin the half-saiyan half-human monozygotic twin otherwise known as Gohan Theodore Briefs, or colloquially ME. So step away before I render each and every organ you possess into a fragmentary state and proceed to force you to ingest them at the same time AS MY FIST!

Damnit Gohan. Stop stealing our MC spot!

Gossard = Vegeta intensifies.

OH well, at least we eventually become more popular?

Also, I wonder why Gohan wasn't touched. Considering he was one of the True Martial Artist's descendants.

I swear by the end of the quest this is gonna happen to Gossard.



384,000*20 (Deluded SS) = 7,680,000

This would be complete and utter overkill for Garlic JR :confused: But Gossard could reclaim his MC spot after that.
 
[X] This man took everything from you. All of your power, and he's going to use it to destroy everything you love. Gohan, Gottex, Momma, Mr. Piccolo.
-[X]Everyone you care about will be dead. And it will be all your fault.
-[X]Your power is useless, everything you achieved is meaningless. All because of this one man.
-[X]Images swirl around your head. Piccolo lying on the ground headless, Gohan unmoving with his head twisted at an unnatural angle his glazed eyes staring at you, Gottex crying before finally being silenced, Momma screaming before burning away to nothing.
-[X] Tears cloud your vision as sorrow strangles your soul.
-[X] That bastard, you'll tear him apart! He will rue the day he thought he could hurt your family!
-[X]The sorrow transforms, blinding hot rage surging through your body as you release an earth shattering bellow of fury.
-[X]The sky darkens, lightning strikes in the distance, chunks of the ground begin to float into the air.
-[X] Before suddenly with an explosion of new energy you realize Ascension.

Yeah I think False Super Saiyan should be easier to get, and is more than enough to wipe the floor with Garlic Jr, but I can't think of a good write-in representing delusion.

Edit: Hm loss of friend (Mr. Piccolo), loss of pride (duh we got ganked by a bunch of mooks who are weaker than us and failed to completely protect Gottex, also failure to avenge Bulma's honor), and the 'realization' that we can't surpass Gohan and has to rely on him to bail our ass.
