Hello, denizens of RPR!

What me and my good friends here did is either the dumbest or the greatest thing ever. We have been recreating our characters in WWE 2K16 and watching them beat the living hell out of one another. It's hilarious to watch and I honestly want to share that weirdness with the rest of you people!

So here's what I propose. I create your characters as best as I can, personalize their intro, their moveset and everything for you and give everyone equal stats so fights will always have random winners. I'll stream the whole thing as often as I can and set up random matches with random characters. That ought to be fun, right?

Here's some examples of mine and my friends' awesome characters that I have utterly butchered.

Aearion


Mordecai


Valmela


Salazar



Mauricio


Chasu Maru (really needs a redo)


Yin


Valder


BONUS ROUND

Myron and Borris


Odvak


Throthgar the Pretty



I'd say that's enough examples. They're all horrifying monstrosities in their own way

So, would you like to join the #BuffBoys? You can! Just leave a reply down below with the character you want me to ruin and it shall be done to the best of my abilities! I have to set a couple of rules in advance, though. Just to avoid confusion.


1: Only 1 character per person for now please. I'm not sure if this thread will get any success at all. But thinking positively and assuming it does, the roster could get cluttered real fast if people were to submit two or three of them at once. I'll leave a message in this thread when the time has come for your second characters to be introduced!

2: Keep in mind in this game men can't fight women and vise versa. I know, I hate it too. But unless I find some sort of cheat engine that allows the game to ignore gender, I'm afraid I can't do much but offer you an apologetic shrug.

3: If at al possible I'd like it if you could give me characters that have their own art. It's way easier for me to base something off of an OC that has drawings of its own rather than a stock image.

4: That being said, I can't do furries. There's not enough options to go full fur in the character creation tools. The best I can do for you is give your character a set of cat ears, cat mittens and an oversized tail, which I'm sure is not to your liking. Especially if your furry is a canine. That is most unorthodox.

5: And finally, the stream. It may shock you, but I have never truly streamed before, nor am I trying to make any money becoming a professional streamer, so it might get wonky until I figure out the details. So bear with me! Eventually I'll figure it out. I've made some progress already, so I can offer you a steady stream if nothing else.

Well, thanks for bearing with me and giving my dumb idea a chance! I look forward to seeing what type of characters I'll get to create.

I would also suggest creating a group in skype or in discord or whatever the heck so I can warn you lot when I'll be streaming and so I can read along with your comments. For me that's like 50% of the fun.

~Specifically Tez please!

...I just want to say that the Scot!Valder and Throthgar in WWE 2K16 are possibly the best thing ever.
That is all.

This is maybe the best idea anyone has ever had.

Sadly I have no idea which of my characters would work for it, most of them either don't have enough art or are kinda nondistinct... my heart says 'make Lurathoth' but I genuinely have little idea of what he'd even look like more human than the noodlechibi I drew for him, heh. So I guess, if you'd like to pick out any of mine you like (including him) and go for it!

Either way definitely count me in, that sounds like a huge amount of fun to watch X3

Matt seems like a good idea here.

Tonaf Odarg for WWE Champion!

@Virus Here you go, pal! I couldn't really find any long dreads so I opted for short ones instead of just having long hair. If you want his tattoos to be in their dormant, non neon blue state, just let me know. Changing colours is the easiest thing in this game!



@Crus0e I'll ruin your squishy demon thing any day! I did my best, but I don't think I really did him any justice. Not enough gooey, slimy props to work with and all, nor was there anything to accentuate his awesome grin. So I made him a more standard demon instead. But I have another one in the works for you. Barton gave me some inspiration. You can expect that one to be built soon!



@Wondergamer WWE 2k16 and teens really don't work well, I noticed when building Matt. He also looks very different without his pirate hat, but I think overal I did a decent job on his adult version. If you want me to try and slim his butch face down more I can certainly try. No promises, though!



@Haddock Hell yeah boii! I love building Dwarves! And I found an intro that has Tonaf dance to the ring, which is really amusing to me. I took some liberties with giving him a tattoo but I'm sure you don't mind.

HE LOOKS AWESOME!!!

Ahaaaaa yess thank you! This is best. And hey while Lu is jobbing maybe Barton can actually do decently in the tournament

The tattoo looks great on Tonaf! Now I hope he doesn't job to anyone on his first match.

This is unimaginably glorious. Throthgar is THE BEST. I dare you to humanize Heimdall!!! Or else just Ivian >D

THIS WAS MEANT TO BEEEEEEEEEEE.

All of my characters are free for you to experiment on~ Yeah, they are canids, but they all work as humans too, so that's something that helps
So I won't force any one of them at you, just see who is the best fit in your eyes

I'd like to see you try make the most furry furry in the game though xD

I will be victorious in my conquest of RPR Mania!
Feel free to humanize him! Assuming the link isn't broken, I think one of the other pages has a tiny reference of what it'd look like.


These are cool! What a fantastic idea!

Here's a little in-between of what I've got! Thanks for the positive feedback, by the way! I'm glad to see this sparked such an interest. It warms this ol' Belgian's heart.

@Crus0e As promised, here's Barton. I didn't have anyone in a suit yet, and the art that you got in the art trade inspired me to get me a suit guy. Barton will be that guy from now on. Don't worry tho, he'll be wearing nothing but tights and shall be covered in oil when the match starts ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)



@Heimdall I love me a challenge, consider it accepted! But god damn was it difficult! At first I wanted to turn him into a viking, then I figured I'd give him some more of his Dragonic traits. And then I wanted to make him royalty for some reason. So I ended up mixing all of them feats together. Now Heimdall is the same height and size as Throthgar. I sense a battle for superiority coming. I may just make Ivian as well. That character is too awesome to ignore.



@Sanne Hell yeah, grab your destiny! I'm pretty miffed at how few options there are for women in the character creator, though. I was very limited in regards to almost everything. I really hoped I could make her look more like a berserker, but oh well. I did what I could! She may not be as buff as in her art, but she still puts all the #BuffBoys to shame!



The rest will be coming soon! And remember, you want anything changed, just let me know!

OH NO BARTON'S JOINED THE AUTHORITY

That's awesome, I'm stoked to see how the fights turn out, it's gonna be so fun to watch~

HEIMDALL LOOKS AMAZING. YES GOOD.

MOAR UPDATES

@Reima You dared challenge me to see how furry I could go? Behold, Christofer in all his furry glory! It was meant as kind of a joke but I think the end result is pretty damn hilarious I might just keep for fun.



@Copper I got you covered, fam! He was interesting to create, but I might have to redo him. Maybe give him a cape or something to show off how much of an emperor he is. He looks more like a soldier to me right now, but you be the judge of that!



@Heimdall And as promised, here's Ivian! WWE's character creator has crappy pre-set scars, though, so I couldn't get his arms or his eye right. So I opted to just rough him up a little as a compromise. I hope that's alright!




I think we have enough characters by now to start streaming some tournaments. If you guys want to witness this, PM me your skype names. I'll start a group where you can get notified live when the stream happens. I won't pester you with memes in the meantime I promise!

! Him looking like a soldier is 100% ok(he's fiercely proud of his military bg), but he looks like Johann instead(dark skin + light hair). Maybe we make him Caucasian?

Sign me up for this Skype group!!!

Also I know you said only one for now, but could my next one be for Bastion or John? (Whichever you prefer)
