So…what happened at last night’s 5+ hour meeting? The top story is that the committee voted 6/0/1 (the Mayor abstained) to ask the city for $79.4 million to fund our schools in the 2024-25 fiscal year. This is $8.2 million more than what the district received this year, $5 million more than the number initially provided to the district from the city, and $2.7 more than the number that we received at the May 6 meeting (which included $2.3 million worth of cuts to close the gap between the city’s initial number and the full ask). You can see this laid out before and after public comment (2:21 and 5:09 marks, respectively).
What’s next? The superintendent will present this “ask” to the city council as part of their review of the Mayor’s proposed city budget. Eventually, the Mayor will present a final city budget to the council and once approved, the amount allotted to the schools will come back to the Superintendent as a number so she and her team can create the final budget proposal within that final number. School committee will then need to vote to approve that budget for the upcoming fiscal year (July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025).
What else? Recap below. As always, observations and opinions are my solely own. Agenda is here, recording is here. This update also includes some clarification about the difference between level funding and level services, as these are terms getting thrown around a lot.

1. Consent agenda - Two amendments (to add a link to one of the subcommittee meeting minutes and strike from the record the street addresses of students who presented at the budget hearing) but otherwise this approval was routine.
   
2. Report from the Ad Hoc Handbook Review subcommittee - The proposed policy (in the agenda) was approved in its first reading. (New policies get read twice over the course of two meetings to give relevant stakeholders a chance to comment on them, unless the committee decides to waive the second reading. We declined to do so last night, so this is now the time for district and school administration to provide feedback on the policy.
   
3. Report from Behavioral Health & Special Education subcommittee - The recommendation to co-locate the Curtis-Tufts school in/with the new high school was approved. The administration and building committee will need to flash this out for inclusion in the materials to be presented to the MSBA.
   
4. CCSR recognition - summary of the program by advisor Richard Trotter (400 students, 70 projects this year), two student presentations (a high school student who talked about the program generally as well as his Mystic River clean up projects, and two elementary school students talking about their Letter Carriers Safety program), and appreciation for the support of the Cummings Foundation.
   
5. Humanities awards recognition - Young Playwrights Project, Student Government Day, Boston Globe Scholastic Writing Awards, Geography Bee, Day on the Hill, Shakespearean Monologue Competition, Immigration Learning Center Teen Perspectives Contest, Ethics Bowl, Mock Trial, Model United Nations - congratulations to all students and their advisors
   
6. High school update & climate survey results presented by principals Marta Cabral and Chad Fallon - This included data comparisons between last year and this year (all trends were positive), discussion of community norms and core values, an update on the exploratory program (CTE/arts rotation and placements), and some highlights from several CTE programs/projects (scarpentry heds, health assisting, awards, licensing, apprenticeships/placements, the biodiesel collaborative project, and the robotics team), three year strategic priorities, an update on last year’s Welch Report (various pieces in progress, other recommendations planned to go into effect next school year), and a proposal for an alternative program proposal to provide a small group learning environment to meet individual needs (pilot was approved by the committee for next school year).
   
7. Proposal for CTE program expansion and additions - Chad Fallon provided an overview of the enrollment/wait list numbers, shared the results of a (still-in-progress) student survey about potential new offerings (criminal justice/protective services, dental assisting, IT/networking, plumbing/HVAC, veterinary science, and the various “other” responses to an open-ended prompt), and laid out plans for expanding those programs with the highest wait list numbers (auto technology, cosmetology, electrical, and health assisting programs). The committee passed a motion directing the administration to further flesh out the proposals for inclusion in the building committee’s materials for MSBA.
   
8. Budget presentation (6:38 p.m., so 1.5 hours into the meeting) - Interim Finance Director Gerry McCue provided some additional context for the budget proposal received on May 6. There were questions and comments from the school committee and student representatives (including a petition), and Member Ruseau made a motion to send a cuts-free budget to city council and the Mayor.
   

Public comment from students, alums, teachers, and parents ensued, focusing on the coordinator of performing arts position, marching band and color guard, the Missituk teaching staff, and a smattering of other items including library, technology, administrative assistants, and kindergarten numbers.
Also of note, the Superintendent answered some questions about the performing arts coordinator position around 8:30 (3.5 hours in).

1. Budget vote - The committee voted to approve the motion offered before public comment began. As noted previously, this is NOT the approved budget but rather, the amount we (school committee and the district) are asking the city for. The city council will review the request in the context of the full city budget, ask questions, offer opinions, but eventually the Mayor’s office will present a final budget for city council approval and, once approved, whatever the school number is will come back to the district, who will then prepare a final budget for school committee to vote on.
   
2. Motion to table the update from the MSBA building committee’s meeting last week - passed and, following condolences, the meeting was adjourned. Next regular meeting is June 3.
   

BONUS CONTENT! What is the difference between a level funding budget and a level services budget? Level funding provides schools with the same dollar amount as they received in the year before. Because things tend to cost more year to year (due to inflation, contractual raises, etc.) having the same amount of money usually means reducing services. Level services, on the other hand, keeps the services the same but due to aforementioned cost increases, requires a higher dollar amount than the previous year. What did the district/school committee ask for this year? We voted to ask not just for level services, but level services plus additional funding to meet additional district needs (the items presented at the May 6 meeting, nothing new since then).
Superintendent should be at tonight's city council meeting to make this ask and answer questions.

I want to start by saying I love this game. I am posting this bc I want to see it thrive. I know this topic has to have been ran into the ground on this subreddit but I wanted to open a discussion to help me understand where we as players stand on the topic right now. Firstly, I apologize to all the people I thought were exaggerating about late endless runs being horrible before this point. With my recent return to the game and shiny weekend I decided to do my first endless run and it is a major success. I have a tinkaton/kartana fusion and a lvl 7500 salt cure leech seed protect metal burst garganacl and I have SSS luck on floor 1500ish. I legitimately dont think I can lose the run unless I just get tired of it.... segway into why I am tired of it lmao. The status and endure tokens NEED to be reworked or taken out of the game imo. As a competitive pokemon player I have always hated sleep and freeze because I think any mechanic that just stops you from playing the game is dumb and here in endless I get slept or frozen 85% of the time I am hit. So I have just quickly thought of a few ways I think it could be remedied.
First and foremost, just fix the lum berry so it works like it does in actual pokemon games. In mainline games lum berry activates as soon as you are statused whereas in pokerogue the berry priorities are all the same meaning it doesnt happen until everyone has taken their turn. I am sure that this was to make coding berries easier but tbh more berries activate immediately once the requirements are met than berries that activate at the end of the turn. Take stat boosting berries and the Super Effective berries, those all activate immediately once you hit 25% HP or are hit by a SE attack respectively. The only post turn berries are the healing ones. I think fixing when all the berries are supposed to proc would change ALOT. Im even down for a berry pouch nerf to balance this out if needed.
Second things, get rid of being able to randomly encounter boss battles outside of the 10s floors. Maybe after floor 1000 you run into a boss every five floors, but having 5 boss battles in 10 floors makes this unbearable at some points. Boss bars paired with endure and status tokens is what actually makes it really annoying. I can deal with non boss pokemon really really easily. This also opens up to more strategy around having a designated boss carry and a faster strong hitter to take out the non boss mons rather than just having the same ole boring 2 strats everyone is forced to run late game.
At the end of the day people play endless to hunt shinies, legendaries, and hidden abilities. It shouldnt be this much of a pain by floor 1500 to do all of that. Endless should be about making cool unique pokemon to run the game with, making cool fusions no one else has done. Using your favorite pokemon in a unique way etc etc. But bc of how the game is setup right now it just feels tedious and none of that is possible. I hope we can all try to help the devs think of ways to fix these issues for players.

Hello everyone. Everyone on this sub know about the CIS, and its main military force that was its titanic droid that was the most powerful in galactic history, but not everyone know about the separatist organic forves as the separatists weren't totally reliant on droids.
Indeed, the CIS also had some organic military units, militias and other organic fighters that were either members of the mega corps of the CIS, the defense forces of the planets members of the CIS, militias fighting civil wars on their planets against loyalist forces, mercenaries and pirates or elite guards and troops guarding the leaders of the group.
These organic troops battled the GAR and other loyalist forces either with our without the support of the Droid Army, sometimes on planets whose environment made it impossible to deploy droids to fight the Republic.
Amongst these many organic separatist troops, there are:
- Geonosian soldiers, lightly protected and not very good soldiers, but very numerous, airborne and having dangerous sonic blasters, cannons and mines that no individual armor or lightsaber could protect from.
There is a more powerful variant of them named the Geonosian Elites, these Geonosians were heavily armored and armed and could rival clone troopers and even clone commandos. Their most powerful weapon was an elite beam weapon firing a highly powerful beam of pure energy, fueled by Geonosian body fluids.
- Trandoshan mercenaries, hunters, slavers or pirates most often fighting alongside the separatist forces against their Wookie arch-enemies on Kashyyyk. These Trandoshans were dangerous fighters thanks to the Trandoshans' natural strength, toughness and ferocity and were armed with very powerful weapons such as heavy blaster cannons and repetition riffles, flamethrowers, missile launchers and knifes, swords and bayonets which could pierre and slice clone armor and wookies alike.
- Jabiimi Nationalists. This militia was made of the people of Jabiimi who sided with the CIS over the centuries of neglect and abuse at Republic's hands, led by the very charismatic and badass Alto Stratus. Most of them were usual human soldiers, but they also had an elite force in the Nimbus Commandos who were equipped with special helmets, lots of blasters and explosives, including charges that could bring AT-ATs if attached to their legs, and repulsorlift skate boots that allowed them to hover on the mud terrains of their planet.
Their righteous anger at the Republic, cunning, determination and resilience and use of guerilla warfare made them particularly dangerous foes for loyalist forces as seen during the Battle of Jabiim.
- Umbaran Militians. The defense forces of Umbara, who fought against the Republic after Umbara joined the CIS and was invaded by the republic in response. They were equipped and armed with weapons and technological devices whose technology was superior to the GAR's, such as their helmets that pumped gas boosting their reflexes and aggressions, bug-like vehicles adapted to their homeworld jungles, and very powerful starfighters and cannons.
- Neimodian Soldiers. Despite their species' reputation for cowardice and reliance on droids to do their dirty work, Neimodians are actually a force to reckon with when the chips are down, something that become more obvious when you know how harsh and ruthless their youth is. There are three known kinds of Neimodian soldiers, the Irregulars who helped General Grievous attack Duro and on which we know nothing, the conscripted soldiers who took part in the neimodian planets' resistance against the Republic during the Outer Rim Sieges who were armed with medium or low quality blaster weapons like B1 Battle Droid; and the Neimodian Gunnery Battalions also called Royal Guards who were the elites of Neimodian's organic military, armed with bronzium beetle-like armors and superior quality blasters.
The most dangerous Neimodian Royal Guards were the Neimodian Brutes, who had been genetically modified to be hulkin, very strong and tough and very aggressive, and who were armed with heavy vibro maces that were devastating against Jedi and clones alike.
- Koorivar Fusiliers. Employed by the Corporate Alliance of Passel Argente, these Koorivar soldiers were described as excellent warriors and had better discipline than most organic soldiers in the galaxy, only using their weapons when ordered to do by their superior, and they an organisation similar to the GAR though on a smaller scale. used mostly to guard Corporate Alliance key worlds and factory planets, and sometimes were deployed on planets where droids could not operate. Armed mostly with riffles, they also made heavy use of artillery against their foes.
- Gossam Commandos. These elite commandos were evidently used for commando missions such as assassination, espionnage or sabotage; though they sometimes acted as security guards by the Commerce Guild, and their use was only permitted by Shu Mai in person This elite force was exclusively made of male gossams, they wore heavy armor and mainly used heavy repeating blaster riffles in battle, sometimes using heavy shoulder-mounted cannons that recquired two gossams to work, one to fire and the other to reload the cannon. Like their Neimodian and Koorivar equivalents, they also were used by the CIS on planets where droids could do not work.
- The Morgukai Shadow Army: The Morgukai were an infamous Nikto subspecies and cult, whose members were very dangerous assassins and mercenaries, often using electric or cortosis staffs, and were able of fighting Jedi. To give back the advantage to the CIS, the dark Jedi Sora Bulq recruited many Anzati assassins and masters and one of the rumored last members of the Morgukai, Bok (though it later turns out that the Morgukai were still alive and healthy though operating in the shadows), to create a clone army of Morgukai trained in the fighting styles of both the Morgukai and the Anzatis, armed with cortosis blades and electric staffs to be able of fighting the Jedi. This Shadow Army was built on Saleucami, causing a very long and gruelling battle with the Republic to prevent this army from leaving the planet and help the CIS turn the tide against the Republic, with it being eventually sabotaged and destroyed by Tholme, Quinlan Vos and Ayla Secura.
- The Mandalorian Protectors. These Mandalorian supercommandos, who were the successors of the True Mandalorians, were created and led by Mandalore the Ressurector, who was in truth Spar, an ARC Trooper who had rejected the Kaminoans' indoctrination and deserted the GAR to go to Mandalore and rebuild the Mandalorians.
Like their predecessors and other Mandalorian supercommandos, the Mandalorian Protectors were very formidable soldiers equipped with mandalorian armors, jetpacks, lots of varied and powerful weapons and they were reinforced by BL-series Battle Legionnaires, droids limited in numbers and looking like protocol droids but who were very formidable fighters with their various blasters and retractable finger blades.
The Mandalorian Protectors did many missions and won several victories against the GAR, often against overwhelming odds, but were eventually set on a trap by Darth Sidious and massacred.

• The Iotran Guard. Iotrans are a humanoid species native to Iotra and famous for their militaristic culture. Their reputation and martial prowess led the Muuns of the InterGalactic Banking Clan to hire many Iotrans as part of the IGBC's Collection and Security Division, to serve as bodyguards and security agents maintaining order on High Port, Muunlist and the IGBC's main spaceport. They were led by the captain of the guard, Riklon Tost who helped San Hill escape Geonosis, led Hailfire Droids in many battles against the GAR, and became the only non-Muun member of the Banking Clan's inner circles. The guard was disbanded after the Clone Wars, with the Empire taking over its operations.

It's sure that many other humans and other species worked and fought too for the CIS during the Clone Wars.
I like the idea that Kaleesh Kolpravis, much like their former leader Grievous, also joined the CIS and fought against the Republic and Jedi during the Clone Wars but it's only speculation on my part, and if it happens it most-likely only happened on Kalee and possibly Oben (a planet later colonized by the Kaleesh under Bentilais sal Sk'ar, Grievous' last surviving lieutenant).
Most of these organic forces are from Legends and were never seen in TCW or any Disney Star Wars books or series.
Which ones is or are your favorites, and would you like to see the most in a new series, film, video game or books ?

To note, this is a continuation of the sagas I wrote that took place after the Cell Saga. The two sagas were written with inspiration taken from MCU Peter Parker's arcs in Far from Home and No Way Home. The goal was to develop Son Gohan into a proper lead for the show. If you'd like to check them out, here are the links!
Bojack (Far From Home) Saga: https://www.reddit.com/fixingmovies/s/sK5zOnJ0oU
Broly (No Way Home) Saga: https://www.reddit.com/fixingmovies/s/R3sGOqdbIv
There are many things I find wrong in the Buu saga:

1. Goku coming back: This derails the narrative tremendously as he snatches back the torch from Gohan. He's going to play a role, but he will stay dead.
2. Gohan's writing: In canon, we ended up with a rusty, goofy, badly written character who lost all the development from the previous sagas. He became a useless disappointment and did not uphold his role as a protector of the earth. This won't go anywhere near that direction.
3. SSJ3 and fusions: These elements were unnecessary as they did nothing to solve the plot and only provided fluff. This can be introduced in Super, but that's another story.
4. Goten and Trunks SSJ: I wasn't a fan of how they easily transformed, treating it as an easy power-up. Here, it will be earned.

What I want to do here is combine the Buu saga with Fusion Reborn. For that movie, there are tons of elements at play that can be used to make the grand finale of Dragon Ball Z, more grand. The goal here is to increase the stakes, trim all the unnecessary fat, give everyone a chance to shine, and keep the main focus on Gohan. I also want to replace Buu with Janemba, as I find him much more threatening due to his unique abilities which would be perfect to challenge Gohan. It's also here that we avoid the rinse-and-repeat problem that came with Buu and his many forms.

Without further ado, here is the...... Janemba Saga!

Seven years have passed since the climactic battle against Broly. Gohan, now a young adult, has diligently pursued a delicate balance between his studies and training. During this time, he has honed his Super Saiyan 2 form and significantly elevated his combat skills. However, he deliberately restrains his power, refusing to succumb to the depths of his inner rage. Gohan believes that his technical prowess alone will suffice, opting to suppress the primal fury within him. Despite his reservations, Gohan attends a prestigious private school on an academic scholarship, alongside his steadfast companion Videl and their circle of friends. Gohan has embraced the responsibility of preserving peace on Earth as a valiant hero, adopting the mantle of Saiyaman. His suit has undergone a sleek redesign, shedding the theatrical poses in favor of a more streamlined appearance. Functioning as a dynamic duo reminiscent of Superman and Batman, Gohan and Videl tackle the city's crime wave together. Videl, having mastered her ki abilities under the tutelage of Piccolo, has grown stronger over the years. Glimpses of their everyday lives reveal the struggles of Gohan as he endeavors to balance the demands of school, training, and personal relationships. Amidst the challenges, he harbors a subtle resentment towards his duty, as it often encroaches upon his cherished personal time. Nevertheless, Gohan persists, fueled by his unwavering determination to live up to his father's legacy.
However, the tranquil facade is shattered when a harrowing turn of events unfolds. The narrative transitions to an otherworldly realm, distinctly separate from Earth. A mysterious figure cloaked in darkness materializes, none other than the malevolent wizard Babidi. Harnessing the unholy power of dark magic, Babidi establishes a sinister connection with his loyal minion Dabura, the King of the Demon Realm. United in their nefarious purpose, they orchestrate an audacious invasion of Otherworld, intent on freeing the formidable demon Janemba. Ages ago, Janemba had been sealed away in this celestial realm by the Supreme Kais. Babidi's malevolent ambition revolves around shrouding the universe in eternal darkness. To achieve this nightmarish vision, he plans to infect the denizens of Earth using the insidious Majin spell, thereby expanding his dominion across countless planets.
In the midst of this burgeoning chaos, Gohan, disguised as Saiyaman, finds himself investigating a peculiar incident involving the possession of one of his dearest friends. Videl, resolute and fearless, engages in a fierce battle against the malevolent puppeteer controlling Sharpner. With unwavering confidence, she urges Gohan to let her confront the threat alone. Sharpner, his strength unnaturally augmented, puts up a formidable resistance, but Videl's experience enables her to subdue him without resorting to fatal measures. As Sharpner awakens from his trance, Gohan seeks answers regarding the enigmatic force that had seized control of his friend. Sharpner reveals that a voice called Babidi had whispered malevolent commands into his mind. Armed with this critical information, Gohan summons Vegeta and Piccolo to join him in unraveling the unfolding crisis, embarking on a journey towards the epicenter of the ominous power emanating from a series of potent and wicked ki signatures, ultimately leading them to Babidi and Dabura.
Meanwhile, Earth becomes a battleground, besieged by an onslaught of resurrected zombies, soldiers, and former villains who once terrorized its populace. Though the trio finds themselves torn between aiding their beleaguered planet and confronting the imminent threat directly before them, they know their immediate priority lies in thwarting Babidi's scheme. Distracting them with his grandiose monologue, Babidi probes their minds, seeking susceptible individuals to manipulate. Initially targeting Vegeta, Babidi redirects his attention toward Piccolo, sensing his inherent duality as a being born of both good and evil. With a combination of Babidi's insidious spell and the lingering malevolence of Piccolo Daimao, the Namekian warrior struggles to resist the overwhelming influence. His powers surge exponentially beyond their previous limitations, clouding his judgment and driving him to confront his former student, Gohan. Amidst the shock of this unforeseen twist, Gohan assumes the responsibility of awakening Piccolo from his trance-like state, determined to restore his mentor's clarity. As the battle rages on, they sense a tremor that reverberates throughout the planet, an unmistakable ki signature brimming with icy coldness, signifying the presence of a singular entity—Janemba.
Bracing himself for the impending clash with this malevolent force, Gohan prepares to face Janemba head-on, while Piccolo embarks on a personal mission to neutralize Babidi. Meanwhile, Vegeta remains locked in a fierce struggle against Dabura, the Prince of Saiyans confronting the King of the Demon Realm. The confrontation unfolds with brutal intensity, and Vegeta finds himself teetering on the edge of defeat. Sensing his adversary's advantage, Dabura unleashes a legion of demons to tip the scales further in his favor. Pushed to his limits, Vegeta fights valiantly, but the odds appear insurmountable. Dabura, consumed by arrogance, revels in his imminent triumph, announcing his intention to unleash the full might of the demon horde upon Earth. Faced with the dire consequences of such a cataclysm, Vegeta musters every ounce of desperation within him. In a moment of self-sacrifice, he unleashes a devastating attack upon Dabura and his minions. The resulting explosion weakens Babidi's forces, repels the encroaching Demon Realm, and safeguards their dimension from untold chaos and devastation.
(Note: I wanted to keep Vegeta's sacrifice but make it matter and count. In canon, it didn't stop Buu, and he sent himself into cold oblivion on a lie. Here, he makes a difference in the long run and has a definitive redemptive moment. )
Startled by the sudden disappearance of Vegeta's powerful ki, Trunks defies the protests of his comrades on the Lookout and rushes towards the chaotic battleground. His heart pounds with trepidation as he races through the smoke-filled air, only to be confronted with the lifeless body of his father lying motionless on the ground. Overwhelmed by a torrent of despair and seething rage, Trunks' trembling hands reach out to shake his father awake, his desperate pleas echoing through the desolate landscape. But his efforts prove futile, and a profound sense of loss engulfs him.
In the midst of this heart-wrenching moment, a surge of raw energy courses through Trunks' veins, igniting a transformation that surpasses the boundaries of his mortal self. Radiating an aura of vibrant golden light, Trunks ascends to the legendary state of the Super Saiyan. His eyes ablaze with determination and fury, he is now ready to face the battle that lies ahead.The scene shifts, revealing the remaining Z-Fighters locked in a perilous struggle against hordes of relentless zombies. Fatigue weighs heavily upon their weary bodies as they fend off the relentless onslaught. Suddenly, a streak of intense power streaks across the sky, and Trunks descends before his comrades, newly transformed and brimming with indomitable strength. A burst of energy erupts from his fingertips, shattering a ki blast launched by one of the zombies, diverting it harmlessly away. In the eyes of his adversaries, astonishment mingles with mockery as they behold the sight of a mere child standing before them.Unfazed by their taunting laughter, Trunks addresses his comrades with unwavering resolve. He declares that he will shoulder the burden of the battle, vowing that not a single life will be lost on this day. With unparalleled speed and precision, he charges towards the encroaching horde, obliterating each zombie with astonishing ease. Their forces crumble beneath the might of his wrath, and the battlefield is transformed into a graveyard of defeated foes.As the last of the zombies falls, Trunks relinquishes his Super Saiyan form, his energy spent and body drained. Collapsing to the ground, he succumbs to exhaustion, his breathing ragged and labored. In this moment of vulnerability, Yamcha, recognizing the young warrior's valor, rushes to his side and gently lifts him from the battlefield, cradling his battered form with utmost care.
(Note: Kid Trunks' transformation is a direct reference to when Future Trunks found Gohan dead after the battle with the androids, and then he transformed. )
While this tumultuous event unfolded, the responsibility of safeguarding the Lookout fell upon the young shoulders of Goten. As time passed, a sudden intrusion disrupted the tranquility of the platform, as a malevolent henchman, infused with the dark power of King Cold, materialized before him. Though momentarily shaken, Goten summoned his courage and engaged in a valiant struggle against his formidable adversary.Initially, it appeared that Goten held his ground admirably, skillfully countering the attacks launched by the nefarious duo of Salza and Dore. However, their sinister coordination gradually began to overpower the young warrior. In a devastating display of force, Salza executed a malicious kick that sent Goten hurtling towards the precipice of the Lookout, teetering on the brink of unconsciousness.
Witnessing her son's battered and vulnerable state, Chi-Chi, consumed by a mixture of horror and fury, lunged at Salza in a desperate attempt to defend her child. Yet, her efforts proved futile as Salza callously seized her by the throat, mercilessly constricting the life from her. From his weakened position, Goten, wide-eyed and mouth agape, struggled to remain conscious, his mind besieged by the conflicting emotions of impending death and the weight of disappointment.
In that critical moment, he closed his eyes, his teeth sinking into his lip until blood stained his mouth. His trembling hands clenched into tight fists. And then, something within him snapped, unleashing a primal force that lay dormant within.Goten vanished, replaced by an embodiment of unbridled rage. Transformed into a Super Saiyan, his furious aura radiated with an intensity that defied comprehension. With a surge of unrestrained power, he propelled himself towards Salza, obliterating his malevolent foe with a devastating blast that eradicated him from existence. Undeterred by the remaining henchmen who sought to avenge their fallen comrade, Goten engaged them with a newfound ferocity.In a breathtaking display of combat prowess, it took mere moments for Goten to dispatch his adversaries, consigning them to the depths of the afterlife. Unaware of his mother's watchful gaze, Chi-Chi bore witness to the astonishing transformation of her once-innocent son, her heart filled with awe at the unfathomable power he now wielded.
(Note: This is a reference to when Superman had attacked Zod for attacking Martha in Man of Steel. With this, Goten is able to break out of his shell and experience some development. I also did not want Chi-Chi to die, but to have it be close. This way, she can witness firsthand her son fighting to avenge her and realizing that his saiyan blood kicked in to save them all, which would lead to some development towards her accepting that they have the natural power to fight, but also protect. )
Simultaneously, amidst the chaos, Piccolo found himself embroiled in a fierce battle of magic. His objective was to shatter the impenetrable barrier erected by his adversary, Babidi, to halt the relentless proliferation of Majin-infused beings. The odds were stacked against him, but with unwavering determination, Piccolo summoned the strength to rupture the barrier, ultimately delivering a fatal blow to Babidi. In doing so, he succeeded in halting the insidious spread of the Majin curse.Meanwhile, Gohan, driven by an overwhelming surge of power in his Super Saiyan 2 form, charged headlong at the formidable Fat Janemba, intent on swiftly ending the confrontation. Displaying remarkable valor, Gohan engaged his adversary with all his might, momentarily gaining the upper hand in fleeting bursts of fury. However, Janemba's energy continued to surge unabated, gradually overpowering Gohan and relegating him to a defensive stance.With the battle reaching its climax, Janemba unleashed a devastating onslaught aimed at obliterating the planet. In a desperate bid to protect all that he held dear, Gohan fearlessly interposed himself between Janemba's lethal assault and the world, extending his arms wide as he summoned the last vestiges of his ki to create a resolute energy shield. The technique demanded one final act of defiance, compelling Gohan to redirect the unleashed energy back towards Janemba, propelling the malevolent entity backward and teetering on the precipice of annihilation. Yet, the maneuver exacted a heavy toll on Gohan, leaving him grievously injured and drained of consciousness, hurtling through the sky and crashing deep into the untamed wilderness.
(Note: This maneuver is a mix of what Gohan did against Broly in Movie 10, and what Future Gohan did in his last battle against the androids.)
Subsequently, Supreme Kai, recognizing the dire condition of the young warrior, transported Gohan to the realm of the Kais. As Gohan gradually regained consciousness, he found himself surrounded by the presence of Supreme Kai, Kibito, and his father, Son Goku. Unbeknownst to Gohan, while the realms beyond had been engulfed in pandemonium, Goku had valiantly sought to subdue numerous formidable adversaries, most notably Broly. Upon learning of Gohan's presence on that distant planet, Goku implored for the opportunity to visit his son, a request that was granted amidst the bittersweet reunion.During their heartfelt meeting, they shared the weight of overseeing the turmoil ravaging Earth, realizing that Janemba still lingered, amassing the remnants of malevolent ki left unvanquished. Panic washed over Gohan as he urgently expressed his need to return to Earth, but his pleas were met with cautionary words from his loved ones. They acknowledged his unpreparedness to face Janemba anew, warning of the potential consequences should he engage the foe prematurely. Supreme Kai disclosed his true intention in bringing Gohan to this realm—to unlock the dormant power lying dormant within him. However, the process demanded a profound reconciliation of Gohan's dual nature as both human and Saiyan. To initiate this transformative ritual, Gohan would be immersed in a meditative trance within the sacred confines of a cascading waterfall, which would serve as a mirror reflecting his true self. Only then would he embark upon the arduous journey of unlocking his latent potential, fully aware that failure could result in dire consequences, even death.
Nervously, Gohan steeled himself for the imminent trial, drawing strength from the unwavering support of his father. With resolute determination, he approached the cascading waterfall, where Supreme Kai initiated the trance, enveloping Gohan in an ethereal aura of introspection.As the ritual commenced, Gohan's gaze fixated grimly upon vivid recollections of his past battles, struggling to reconcile the moments when he had succumbed to his own wrath. Before long, a projection materialized, representing his suppressed Saiyan essence—a separate entity demanding to be acknowledged. A tumultuous clash ensued between the two facets of Gohan's being, with the young warrior faltering in his attempts to gain the upper hand, for each surge of anger only fueled his other self. Finally, a profound realization washed over Gohan, piercing through the haze of conflict. He ceased resisting and, instead, extended a hand of acceptance and understanding to his Saiyan counterpart, embracing the essence of his true nature. In that transformative instant, the boundaries dissolved, merging into a harmonious unity. Gohan's eyes fluttered open as he awakened from the trance, reborn in his newfound Ultimate Form, his essence finally whole and indomitable.
(Note: Yes, this is a direct reference to Naruto obtaining true mastery of his nine tails form in Shippuden. I did not like Gohan's canon mystic ritual because it did not feel earned. He just sat around for a long time doing nothing and gained nothing from it. I wanted to fix that. So here, he went through a more direct ritual at the risk of death to be able to unlock his true abilities. )
In the midst of these events, Trunks and Goten find themselves under the tutelage of Piccolo within the formidable Hyperbolic Time Chamber. News reaches Piccolo that Gohan is undergoing a transformative process to unlock his latent potential, but the looming return of Janemba threatens to disrupt their plans. Exiting the chamber, Trunks and Goten emerge stronger than ever, having mastered their Super Saiyan forms and honed their teamwork to near perfection, compensating for their inherent power limitations.As Janemba crosses paths with them, the clash erupts in a spectacular display of martial prowess. Individually, they stand little chance against the overwhelming might of Janemba, but when united, a different narrative unfolds. Their combined efforts aim to sustain the battle long enough, providing Gohan with the precious time he needs to complete his ritual. Piccolo assumes leadership, valiantly holding his ground, although it becomes increasingly evident that Janemba possesses a distinct advantage. Piccolo strategically diverts Janemba's attention, creating openings for Goten and Trunks to launch coordinated assaults that vex their adversary, even if their impact is minimal. Nonetheless, every second counts.
In a fateful turn of events, Janemba unleashes an assault that overwhelms Piccolo, incapacitating him and leaving only Goten and Trunks to face the malevolent entity. Swift as a phantom, Janemba materializes in front of Trunks, delivering a devastating blow to his abdomen, leaving Goten as the lone defender. Standing tall, Goten defiantly assumes a battle stance, mustering his courage. However, before Janemba can unleash a devastating attack upon him, an unknown figure delivers a powerful kick to Janemba's head, hurtling him towards the distant mountains.
The camera pans, revealing the figure to be none other than Gohan, resplendent in his newfound form.
(Note: This entrance directly mirrors that of Future Gohan when he was about to begin his final battle against the Androids!)
A wave of elation washes over Goten as he beholds the return of his beloved elder brother, while Trunks and Piccolo visibly exhale with relief. Gohan and Piccolo exchange a brief but meaningful exchange, Gohan acknowledging his newfound strength while Piccolo recognizes that Gohan has ascended to an entirely different echelon. Janemba regains his footing, reemerging before them, demanding their attention and focus. Gohan asserts that he will confront Janemba directly, urging the others to evacuate. Though reluctant, Piccolo and the young warriors comply, dispersing to various parts of the world to address the chaos that plagues their surroundings.
With an air of fury, Janemba charges at Gohan, his fist extended menacingly. Yet Gohan intercepts the attack, seizing Janemba's fist in a vice-like grip, and in a flash of teleportation, they are transported to the dreaded realm of H.F.I.L. (Home For Infinite Losers).
(Note: I have Gohan teleport Janemba because at least this way their battle will not damage Earth. Also we will assume Gohan has figured out some sort of Instant Transmission movement like Goku.)
The eyes of Earth's denizens, the Kais, and the denizens of the Otherworld are fixated on this pivotal moment, the culmination of a battle that will determine the fate of the universe. And so, the clash commences, a cataclysmic struggle that echoes through the very fabric of existence.
In a breathtaking display of power, Gohan initially dominates the battle, effortlessly overpowering Janemba with his newfound might. However, the tables turn when Janemba unveils unexpected abilities: space-time manipulation and a formidable sword. Gohan is caught off guard, unsure of how to counter such unorthodox tactics. Desperation and frustration consume him, causing his control over his own power to slip away.Amidst the chaos, Gohan experiences a moment of revelation, a surge of understanding regarding his opponent's abilities. He realizes that in order to anticipate Janemba's next move, he must heighten his senses by channeling his ki, allowing for precise timing and swift reactions. With this newfound clarity, Gohan regains his composure, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. Seizing an opportunity, Janemba materializes before him, poised to strike with his sword. Yet, in a stunning display of strength, Gohan catches the blade with both hands, shattering it into pieces.
The tide of the battle begins to shift, albeit slightly, in Gohan's favor. Frustrated and bewildered, Janemba exclaims, "Just what...are you?!" Gohan responds with unwavering resolve, proclaiming, "I am the hope of the universe. I am the answer to all living things that cry out for peace. I am the protector of the innocent. I am the light in the darkness. I am truth. Ally to good! Nightmare to you!"
(Note: I'm taking Goku's dubbed speech against Frieza and repurposing it for Gohan. As he's inherently more the justice-driven hero archetype rather than the fighting maniac that is Goku, it makes more sense. We'll just assume Goku gave Frieza the manga version of his speech. This is also the most pivotal moment of Gohan's journey as he comes to terms with being a protector. Throughout the show, he's been struggling between his desire to be a scholar and his responsibility to be a hero. That dubbed speech is exactly the moment that Gohan's arc comes full circle. Here, he finally embraces what he was always meant to be..... the hero.)
With renewed determination, Gohan launches various assaults in a bid to defeat his formidable adversary. However, his attacks fail to inflict lasting damage, and Gohan himself begins to exhaust his ki. It is then that he realizes the true nature of Janemba's existence—he is an embodiment of pure evil ki, unlike any opponent Gohan has faced before. A desperate plan takes shape in Gohan's mind. Mentally reaching out to his friends and even Videl, he calls upon them to gather their ki, reminiscent of the Spirit Bomb technique. Initially, only the Z-Fighters respond, but their combined energy proves insufficient.As Gohan valiantly defends against Janemba's onslaught, he mentally pleads with the people of Earth to lend their aid. Uncertainty and doubt cast a shadow over the crowd until Hercule steps forward, berating them for refusing to support the man who once saved them during the Cell Games. Revealing the truth of Gohan's identity as the Delivery Boy turned hero, the tide of public opinion shifts. People extend their hands, offering their energy to their savior. Shocked by the sudden turn of events, Gohan is relieved by the surge of ki coursing through him, providing a momentary opening to kick Janemba away. The collective assistance grants Gohan a substantial reservoir of energy, which he then summons forth, infusing it with the very essence of his soul—a daring and perilous maneuver.
Driven to his breaking point, a furious Janemba ascends into the sky, conjuring a colossal sphere of malevolent ki capable of obliterating the entire universe. Gohan remains calm, his gaze fixed upon the impending cataclysm. With unwavering resolve, he declares, "This is the end for you, Janemba." Closing his eyes, Gohan raises his left hand above his head, conjuring a radiant sphere of rainbow light. Seizing the opportunity, Janemba hurls his devastating attack towards Gohan. Sensing the imminent danger, Gohan's eyes snap open as he crushes the ball of energy in his palm. Swiftly pivoting, he hurls the fragmented energy towards the oncoming attack, effortlessly piercing through it, and hurtling towards Janemba, finally eradicating the universe's peril once and for all.
(Note: This is the same technique as Kid Buu's Planet Burst move, the one that destroyed Earth. I also repurposed Gogeta's stardust breaker technique for Gohan as I feel it makes sense for him to have it. It also makes him stand out from Goku even more in this case.)
As the dust settles, Gohan maintains his energy long enough to witness Janemba's demise. A triumphant smirk graces his face as he remarks, "Heh, looks like I finally did it." Exhausted, he collapses to the ground, almost completely drained. The onlookers erupt into joyous cheers, celebrating Gohan's hard-fought victory. Supreme Kai teleports Gohan from the depths of H.F.I.L back to Earth, specifically to the Lookout, where his family and friends eagerly await his return. In a heartwarming scene, Gohan is enveloped in embraces and expressions of relief. It is here, amidst the warmth of their loved ones, that Gohan and Videl share their first kiss—a tender moment of connection and celebration.Meanwhile, the Dragon Balls work their magic, rectifying the chaos caused by Babidi's dark influence. The majority of those who perished are revived, yet there are exceptions, including Vegeta. Accepting his fate and determined to atone for his past deeds, Vegeta expresses his desire to continue growing stronger in the afterlife, entrusting the protection of his family to his son. Tearfully, Trunks vows to make his father proud, with Goten stepping forward to support his friend in this emotional moment. Fond farewells are exchanged as everyone prepares to return to their respective homes.
Gohan and Goten engage in a heartfelt conversation, their bond as brothers strengthening. However, their exchange is interrupted by Chi-Chi, who unexpectedly interrupts their conversation. To their astonishment, she expresses pride in their valiant efforts to safeguard the world, finally relenting and granting them permission to train and protect. The three embrace, their family united and resolute.In a different realm, Vegeta stands before King Yemma, awaiting judgment. To his surprise, he is granted an Otherworldly body, a result of Goku's recommendation and Vegeta's ultimate sacrifice that tipped the scales of justice. With this second chance, Vegeta is granted the opportunity to train ceaselessly and, more importantly, to settle his unfinished business with Goku. The final scene between Goku and Vegeta unfolds, their fists colliding in a charged confrontation, their image freezing .( mirroring the intensity of Rocky and Apollo in Rocky III, leaving their ultimate showdown to the imagination.)
A decade passes, marked by a time skip. Tien and Krillin have established their own martial arts schools, dedicated to passing on their unique styles to the next generation. Goten and Trunks, under the tutelage of Piccolo, diligently train to harness their extraordinary powers. Gohan, now a respected scholar, has married Videl, and together they have a daughter. At home, Videl imparts the basics of combat to their daughter, Pan. Gohan, having just finished delivering a lecture on energy at the university, senses a disturbance reverberating across the planet. Instinctively, he rushes to the rooftop, pressing a button on his wrist. In an instant, he transforms into his iconic Saiyaman costume, soaring into the horizon with a mischievous grin. He breaks through the fourth wall, symbolizing his unwavering resolve to protect and inspire.
The screen fades to black.
The End.
There we have it! My final wrap-up of the MCU Peter ParkeGohan development journey! Honestly, I did have thoughts of just going straight into revising the Buu arc, but I felt there was more to be done before that. Gohan needed to go through the development I gave him in my two written arcs as there were lessons there that shaped him.
I also felt that a trained Gohan, who is naturally intellectual, would be a perfect antagonist in Janemba. He had to learn to outsmart him, and not just have it be a straight-up slugfest.

Hi
He is designed around his capabilities to survive almost everything in order to bring support everywhere on the battlefield. He will lacks "Surgery" as he is more a field operative then a doctor.
I wanted the best survivability possible, so you need high level in :

• Medtech

CYBERWARE PLAN
In order of priority

With that in mind :

• He will not going down easly, so he will be able to do his job : Support
• He'll be able to reach a friend in needs of a speedheal or stim because of his high move + grapple hand.
• He can "tank" damage for them (HP60 + SP12 + Stim) and even shield them (popup Shield).
• He will be part of the combat
  • DPS : with AP grenade and boomerangs
  • Support : smoke and flashbang grenade are also very good option
  • Close combat with Brawl : Grab + choke or Human shield or MOVE (yeah you can move around a grabbed character at will.)
• He can quick fix critical injuries easly either meat or cyber (Paramedics and Cybertech)
• Action economy
  • Modular hand with airhypo fingers is a HUGE action economy device.
  • Popup shield
  • Medscaner in a glove
  • grapple hand

Hello, I am a first time keeper and plan on doing a test game with a few friends. In the meantime i have been brain storming a homebrew campaign based in WW1 on the Western inspired by Amnesia: The bunker. I have made 6 classes based on types of troops during ww1 and am unsure of how to make fair stat bonuses and negatives as i dont have much experiences with the game yet. i want the classes to fit a specific playstyle and want to make them all feel uniqe from each other, any suggestions are welcome as this is very much a work in progress project
Below i have the classes that ive made (sorry for the horrendous paragraphs ive copied this from my google doc)
Classes available for this campaign:
Raider- A lowly Trench raider they thrive in tight spaces and close encounters.
Quick on their feet, and tougher than nails their ability to think quickly through
An ever adapting battlefield is how they survive the most hopeless of battles.
Through all they have to do, seeing their comrades fall, having to dispatch the
enemy within arms reach, and the very real chance of losing their lives in a filthy
trench they fail to keep their heads on straight, they tend to be Hotheads and
very blunt with their words.

• Starts with a choice of a trench shotgun or Mp18 Smg
• Starts with a trench mace
• Starts with a metal chestplate
• Starts with 2 grenades

Infantryman- Standard soldier for the time, their time working in the trenches have
made them very efficient at planning and setting up defenses. Their ability
to stay sane whilst being bombarded by shellfire is unmatched and often
very reliable to keep morale high through cracking jokes, They take pride
in their hard work and dedication for their cause.

• Starts with a Lee enfield
• Starts with a trench periscope and folding shovel
• Starts with a 1 frag grenade and 1 gas grenade

Officer- Natural born leaders, to serve their countries they have risen to the top.
Great strategic minds and bring morale to their troops. Their ability to
think of solutions to complex solutions and pre plan is unmatched by anyone
in the foxhole.

• Starts a Pedersen device pistol caliber semi rifle
• Starts with a Webley Mk IV revolver
• Starts with Trench whistle (i want this to buff allies with drawbacks, something like buffs movement speed while lowering sanity)
• Starts with Saber
• Starts with Scr-54 portable radio

Medic- Very devoted to keeping their allies alive. The Medic is the greatest support
any soldier can wish to be on the field with them. Very caring and easy to
get along with they keep their heads on straight in the worst of conditions
Though they can keep themselves calm during troubling times they've seen
the worst of it especially whilst treating the wounded, they find it hard to sleep
at night. Even with the horrors they've witnessed they still keep a brave face.

• Starts with a standard issued medical kit
• Starts with a Colt m1911
• Starts with a multi purpose knife
• Starts with 2 smoke grenades

Marksman- The classic eagle eyed sniper. Very perceptive to their surrounding and great

• Starts with SMLE Mk4 with scope
• Starts with binoculars
• Starts with 2 tripwire mines
• Starts with a Scr-54 Radio

Heavy- The standout heavy gunner. Very strong from moving their equipment and countless
rounds of ammunition. Their fortitude is unique, they are used to the sound of constant
gunfire and have come to terms with being shot at while suppressing their opposition
making them one of the bravest soldiers on the field. Though they may be strong they
still must carry some of the heaviest equipment around making them more ideal for
hunkering down and controlling an area instead of running and gunning.

• Starts with Lewis gun
• Starts with deployable crate of ammo
• Starts with a mallet
• Starts with chest plate and experimental facial armor

I really appreciate any advice you guys can give me. I really want to make this something very special for my group

Rough start from Kremer last night. Combo of not being able to put away batters with 2 strikes and getting squeezed by the ump makes for a pretty frustrating start. They happen though and hopefully it doesn't phase him. Get after the Cards tonight with Bradish on the bump and some runs. Seems the trend is alternating hot offense cold offense. Tonight's offense will be on fire. I can feel it.
Umm, congrats (?) I guess to u/jjk2 (6-4) for a +/- 1 guess last night.
