Talk:Joel Joestar (JJBA Supplement)

Can someone help with the formatting a bit? Thanks. -page creator, Deiderin.

Howdy, guy who's made most of the JoJo content on this wiki here! I love seeing new users create content, but this page has a handful of issues:

• Stands in Part 3 were named after either tarot cards (of which all were used) or ancient Egyptian gods. Beyond that, every official Stand has been named after a piece of music.
• 5 Stand ability scores is a bit excessive. Even Star Platinum and The World only have 2 unique ability scores.
• Description is heavily lacking. With canon characters, it's enough to simply state who they are in most cases, but the same does not apply to OCs, since you're the only one who knows who they are.
• What else can cellular activation do? I don't mean the feature itself needs to have more content, but that a Stand only being able to do one thing is kinda underwhelming. Maybe it can cause tumors?
• Maybe rename Sunset Drop Overdrive to Sunrise Drop Overdrive. Minor modification, but we already have a Sunset Orange Overdrive, and it would complete the first half of the daylight cycle. Main issue with it, though, is that it doesn't have a range. Right now, it can be used on any creature in the universe.
• Less of a problem than a suggestion for after the above revisions are made, or at least a consensus has been made around them; add this stand to OC Stands (5e Subclass), it'd be a perfect fit. Same goes for the overdrive and Hamon Warrior (5e Class).

I look forward to seeing what this page becomes in the future. --Ref3rence (talk) 11:06, 12 December 2020 (MST)

Thanks for the feedback! Do you have any suggestions about renaming? If possible, I’d like it to be sorta cat themed? Also, I edited the Ability scores, changed the name to fit the daylight cycle, and I wanted to also have Cellular Acceleration have an effect on possibly accelerating things, but that’s what Golden Experience does, and I don’t want to just take that. I am also currently running a JoJo based campaign with some buddies of mine and Joel’s developing in that and I’ll add things about him as they become an established part of the character. And if you’d like, you can add his Sunrise Drop Overdrive to Hamon Warrior (5e Class), and feel free to make any edits to the Overdrive that you feel is necessary. -Deiderin

That’s a really cool way to write a character. As for improved name suggestions, there’s “Cat’s in the Cradle”, Ted Nugent’s “Cat Scratch Fever”, “What’s New Pussycat”, or even any of the Stray Cats’ self-titled songs (i.e. Stray Cat Blues, Stray Cat Strut) on the justification given by Love Love Deluxe from part 8, or their album Feline Frisky. --Ref3rence (talk) 20:38, 12 December 2020 (MST)

I chose Feline Frisky as a rename, thanks for your great suggestions! I am thinking on a secondary stand Ability that’s sorta minor, and though of that some types of cats bestow different types of luck on people. So a minor Ability of Feline Frisky would be to bestow Good or bad luck on someone, which would work like the spell bless, adding a d4 for good luck and subtract a d4 for bad luck. What do you think? Also, I am still kinda noob at making things on this wiki, so I would LOVE to add Feline Frisky to OC Stands (5e Subclass), but I don’t know how to. -Deiderin

Hey, I hope you don't mind if I edit the description, now that I have a more cohesive version of the character. Sorry about being silent on it for 2+ years but we finished the campaign and interesting things came from it. Also, I have further educated myself in JoJo since then as by the time I first made this page I was, well, running on knowledge from assimilation by my friends trying to get me into it. But yeah, I just wanted to leave a note here incase you see that I changed the description for Joel and Feline Frisky. -Deiderin, 10-13-22
