"But Giga," I can hear you saying, "mariocool just started his own Paper Mario forum game! Why should I join yours? And for that matter, why start your own in the first place?"

Well, it seems I just can't get enough of drawing shit, and I want to continue making character art. That, and I think this is a cool idea.

This is a boss rush, of sorts. In this thread, if you choose to join, you will be facing all of the bosses, and quite a few minibosses, from the Paper Mario series. This means I'm being unoriginal again, and stealing shit from existing games. However, you don't have to just join as Mario, with his hammer and jump - I've got a few classes lined up. Seven Eight Nine, to be precise.

Code
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every class starts with 10 HP, 5 FP, 3 BP and 1 SP. MAG does not exist. 
Every battle results in a level up, where players may choose HP, FP or BP to raise by 5, 5 or 3 respectively.
People do not share FP. Every ceil(3.5) levels, you can raise either your ATK or DEF.
You unlock one move from a skill tree every ceil(3.5) levels.

Defend | None | Sacrifice your turn to take half damage.
Focus  | None | Gain 0.25 SP. Any other action will grant you 0.1 SP. Spending SP revokes SP regeneration.

Might put the above into a table format. Not sure. Want to use images.

The Choice Band is replacing the Hammerman and Jumpman badges, being a bit more restrictive. Otherwise, most of the relevant (for example, not Chill Out or Bump Attack) badges from PM64 and TTYD are present.
As for how often I plan to update, as this is gonna be super simple, it should be good for once every time I wake up. That might not be once a day - it might only be once every two days. My sleep schedule is shit.

(assuming I only get one person signing up)
Next Boss: Jr. Troopa

This is a thing that's happening, now. Achievements in old video games.
Thank you for the layout, Erik557.
Man, I wish this would've worked. Oh well.
If not for respect, but dramatic effect, take on the face of Guy Fawkes.

This sounds at least a bit different from PM:IBC, and the idea of playing as different classes sounds pretty sweet. Count me in!

...I choose to be a Koopa. Seems pretty great at attacking all enemies at a time, plus I have a fondness for Koops and his attacks .

EDIT: Why not re-name the Choice Band to... the Choice Badge? #w{=3}

Just so you know, I'm very active on the site anymore like I was before; I'm mainly on Discord now.
Surprising absolutely no one I'm signing up, and I'll have my Yoshi in blue thank you (like the blue one in TTYD).

Attempt to sign up as my actual character again. If that doesn't work, take the Siren as this team needs a healer.

Lakitu. I love me some summons.
Want to see some of my cool swords? Well, too bad, right now you only get to see one of them, and it's my avatar. Might set up some kind of gallery/portfolio at some point, though.
As this is way more than one person, we won't be fighting Jr. Troopa. Not just yet, anyways.


You appear in a flash of light, and see some Goombas building a tiny castle. They notice you, and are a bit peeved.

Everyone's allowed to apply one level up, and pick one badge. PHP images will be coming, you know me.
