User:John3637881/Character concepts

This is where I will put my character concepts. If you remember, these characters used to be in the Super Smash Bros. Dream project on this wiki. After that project ended, I decided to put all my characters here in an attempt to save space, room, and to cut down on the edit count in the "Recent Changes" section.

This list should not be seen as a "prediction list" of any kind. In fact, I highly doubt most of these characters would ever be added to Smash. If you don't like my characters, then I recommend you make a character concepts page of your own. In any case, I'd be interested to see what kinds of ideas for characters you have.

Note: This list is not spoiler safe. Many characters say and do things in these concepts that could spoil key parts of their respective works for you.

=Optimus Prime=


 * Optimus Prime Has Got The Touch!

Optimus Prime is a representative of the Transformers universe. He is the leader of the heroic Autobots and the rival of the evil Megatron. His respective voice actors, and, could reprise their roles as Optimus Prime.

Attributes
Similar to, Optimus Prime sports slow but incredibly hard-hitting moves. Many of his moves are based off of those seen in various Transformers media. Optimus is a force to be reckoned with, as he is both taller and heavier than even. However, Optimus is vulnerable to both combos and gimping due to his high weight, extremely fast falling speed, and limited recovery options. On the plus side, the first two of those traits make it difficult for Optimus to be KO'ed vertically.

Taunts

 * Up Taunt: Optimus's torso opens, revealing the Matrix of Leadership.
 * Side Taunt: Optimus brandishes his Energon Axe and yells That's what you are, junk!"
 * Down Taunt: Optimus says "Give me your face!"

On-Screen Appearance
Optimus drives onto the stage and transforms into robot mode. If the match has only two players, Optimus will sometimes say "One shall stand, one shall fall!" If Megatron is present in the match, Optimus will sometimes say "Megatron must be stopped...no matter the cost!"

Idle Poses

 * Optimus puts his hands on his hips and looks around.
 * Optimus puts one hand over his mouthplate and another on his hip, looking contemplative.

Crowd Cheer
Opti - mus!

Victory Fanfare

Victory Poses

 * Optimus strikes an iconic pose and says "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings."
 * If Megatron is present after a match, Optimus will sometimes say old, Megatron. Yesterday's model; ready for the scrap heap!"
 * Optimus holds the Matrix of Leadership above him and says all are one."
 * Optimus raises both fists into the air, brings them down, then raises his right arm upwards, somewhat like one of 's victory poses. Optimus' victory pose in DreamMix TV World Fighters.

Trophies

 * Optimus Prime
 * Optimus Prime is the heroic leader of the Autobots, a faction of Transformers that is constantly engaged in battle with the evil Decepticons. His rival is the Decepticon leader, Megatron. Optimus has all the tools he needs to protect humanity and restore Cybertron, including the ability to transform into a truck, his trusty Ion Blaster, and the mysterious and powerful Matrix of Leadership.


 * Optimus Prime (Alt.)
 * Optimus has some extremely powerful attacks at his disposal. Opponents have to be careful when approaching the Autobot, or else he'll use one of his mighty smash attacks to send them flying! In particular, his forward smash is unique in that it can meteor smash airborne opponents. Try using it against opponents who are over the edge and watch them fall!


 * Roll Out
 * Although this move was never given an official name, it has proven to be one of the most famous in Transformers history. When performing stunts like this, Optimus proves he can change the tide of a battle single-handedly. In Smash Bros., it's the perfect move for KOing opponents at relatively low percentages!

Alternate costumes

 * Default - Optimus Prime as he appears in The Transformers cartoon.
 * Yellow - Based off of Bumblebee, an Autobot and one of Optimus' closest friends.
 * Red - Based off of Ironhide, a high ranking veteran Autobot and longtime friend of Optimus.
 * White - Based off of Jazz, a cool Autobot who transforms into a sports car.
 * Green - Based off of Hound, an Autobot with the ability to project holograms to confuse enemies.
 * Orange - Based off of Rodimus Prime, an Autobot who comes into prominence in Transformers: The Movie and the third season of The Transformers cartoon.
 * Blue - Based off of Ultra Magnus, a competent Autobot commander in Transformers: The Movie and the third season of The Transformers cartoon.
 * Purple - Based off of Optimus Prime from the Shattered Glass continuity, in which the Autobots are evil and the Decepticons are good.

Hat
Kirby gains the blue portion of Optimus' head as a helmet, in addition to his face plate. The move remains largely the same, except that since he is much shorter, Kirby fires much closer to the ground, and thanks to his slower falling speed and lower gravity, can fire more shots in the air than Optimus can.

=Megatron=


 * Megatron Guns For Domination!

Megatron is the second representative of the Transformers franchise. He is the evil leader of the Decepticons and seeks to rule the universe. His respective voice actors, and, could reprise their roles as Megatron.

Attributes
Megatron has perhaps the most unique ability in all of the Smash series: the ability to turn into an item with his down special, Transform. In robot form, Megatron is the largest and heaviest character in the game, while in pistol mode, he is the smallest and the lightest. Megatron’s singular traits make him well suited to doubles matches, where he can use Transform and his teammate can then use him as a weapon. Megatron’s strengths include his powerful and effective attacks, while his primary weakness is his large size, which makes him vulnerable to many attacks. Failing to use his pistol mode properly is also a sure-fire way to get KO’ed.

Taunts

 * Up Taunt: Megatron raises up his fist and says “Such heroic nonsense.”
 * Side Taunt: Megatron points forward and yells “Do as I command!”
 * Down Taunt: Megatron clenches his fists and yells rip out your optics!"

On-Screen Appearance
Megatron flies in robot mode and lands on the stage.

Idle Poses

 * Megatron puts his hands behind his back and looks forward.
 * Megatron clenches his fists and glares.

Crowd Cheer
Megatron! Megatron!

Victory Poses

 * Megatron's back is facing the camera. He turns his head around and asks throw away your life so recklessly?"
 * Megatron holds a blaster in his right hand, points it towards the camera, and says would have waited an eternity for this."
 * If Optimus is present after a match, Megatron will sometimes finish the quote and add "It's over, Prime!"
 * Megatron laughs maniacally, transforms into a pistol, and shoots haphazardly multiple times.

Trophies

 * Megatron
 * Megatron is the evil leader of the Decepticons, a powerful faction of Transformers that seeks to conquer the universe. Megatron would love nothing more than to defeat his nemesis, Optimus Prime, and rule Cybertron unopposed. Fortunately, Optimus and the Autobots always find a way to stop Megatron's schemes and preserve freedom in the world.


 * Megatron (Alt.)
 * Megatron's abilities are unorthodox, even for a Decepticon. Being one of the only Transformers capable of transforming into a gun, the battle is always interesting when Megatron is on the field. As a pistol, his attacks are extremely powerful. Because of his strengths, few ever question Megatron's leadership. Now if only he could keep Starscream under control...


 * Galvatron
 * Left drifting helplessly through space, Megatron is found and reformatted by the mighty Unicron. Galvatron is even more powerful than Megatron, striking fear into the sparks of all who encounter him. In Smash Bros., you can only use Galvatron for a while before he reverts back to normal, so use the time you have to deal maximum damage!

Alternate costumes

 * Default – Megatron as he appears in The Transformers cartoon.
 * Red - Based off of Starscream, Megatron's treacherous second-in-command who constantly seeks to overthrow Megatron and rule the Decepticons for himself.
 * Blue - Based off of Soundwave, the Decepticon Communications Officer and loyal servant of Megatron.
 * Purple - Based off of Shockwave, the high ranking leader of the Cybertron Guard and one of Megatron’s most loyal Decepticons.
 * Green - Based off of Devastator, the large and powerful combined form of the Constructicons.
 * Yellow - Based off of Blitzwing, a violent Decepticon who eventually begins to think for himself.
 * Purple - Based off of Beast Wars Megatron.
 * White - Based off of Megatron from the Shattered Glass continuity, in which the Autobots are evil and the Decepticons are good.

Trivia

 * Ironically, Megatron’s series symbol is the Autobot logo, despite him being the leader of the Decepticons.
 * Megatron’s crowd cheer is a reference to the scene in Transformers: The Movie where the Decepticons on Cybertron cheer for Galvatron after he takes power.
 * Upon being KO'd, Megatron will sometimes yell "Retreat!," which he says frequently when he has been defeated or one of his plans has been thwarted.

=Tor=
 * Tor Delivers!

Tor is a heroic Lupe knight from Meridell who goes on a quest to stop the Darkest Faerie. First appearing in Neopets: The Darkest Faerie, he represents the Neopets universe. , who voiced Tor in The Darkest Faerie, could reprise his role.

Attributes
As a swordsman, Tor's moveset is similar to characters such as, , and. Of the aforementioned characters, Tor most closely resembles Link, sharing several similar moves. What sets Tor apart from the other sword-wielding characters in Smash is his ability to change his alignment through use of his neutral special, Mote Toggle. The advantages and weaknesses of the different alignments force Tor to play each matchup differently.

Like, Tor has a gauge located near his character portrait. This gauge is his Magic Meter. The gauge becomes active when Tor chooses an alignment via Mote Toggle. The meter starts out full, but when Tor attacks while equipped with a mote, it goes down. The meter also always goes down over time. When the meter is entirely depleted, Tor's mote status will end immediately. The Magic Meter resets itself after a while. Eating Food has a small chance of randomly resetting the gauge. Like Shulk's Monado Arts, the effects of Mote Toggle will last for about 15 seconds and it takes about 10 seconds for the Magic Meter to recharge.

Alignment strengths/weaknesses
Tor can use his motes to protect himself from various attacks or go on the offensive. Conversely, his motes can leave him more vulnerable to certain attacks.

Alignment effects
Tor can use one of six different motes. Each represents a different elemental alignment from the Neopets universe.
 * Fire: Represents Fire. Attacks cause flame damage. Increases the damage and knockback of attacks. Weak against Water.
 * Water: Represents Water. Attacks have a chance of freezing. Weak against Fire.
 * Leaf: Represents Earth. Attacks have a chance of causing the flower effect. Weak against Air.
 * Wind: Represents Air. While equipped, Tor will be faster overall and his smash attacks will have windboxes. Weak against Earth.
 * Light: Represents Light. Attacks have a chance of stunning opponents as if their shield was broken. Jigglypuff will not be instantly KO'ed if this occurs, and instead will be stunned like any other character. Weak against Dark.
 * Shadow: Represents Dark. Attacks have a chance of temporarily creating a purple cloud over opponents' heads, causing them to have weaker attacks.

Hit with same alignment
If Tor is hit with an elemental attack while using that attack's mote, he will take less of the effects of that attack. Following is a list of such strengths:
 * Equipped with Fire, hit with Fire attack: Tor will take less damage and knockback.
 * Equipped with Water, hit with Water attack: Tor will take less damage/knockback to water attacks, will not be moved as far/as fast with pushing water attacks such as 's F.L.U.D.D., will be frozen for less time, and will have better mobility when swimming.
 * Equipped with Earth, hit with Earth attack: Tor will take less damage/knockback, will be affected less by the flower effect, will be buried for less time.
 * Equipped with Air, hit with Air attack: Tor will not be pushed/pulled as fast/as far by wind/pulling attacks. In addition, Tor will not be paralyzed for as long.
 * Equipped with Light, hit with Light attack: Tor will take less damage and knockback. If Tor’s Shield is broken or any item used against him which causes dizziness, the effects will not last for as long.
 * Equipped with Dark, hit with Dark attack: Tor will take less damage and knockback, and will be put to sleep for less time than normal. Witch Time will have less of an effect on Tor.

Hit with opposite alignment
If Tor is hit with an elemental attack while using that attack's opposite mote, he will suffer from increased damage and knockback, and sometimes, other effects. Following is a list of effects that can happen:
 * Equipped with Fire, hit with Water attack: Water attacks, such as some of 's moves, have a chance of freezing Tor. 's F.L.U.D.D. will push Tor much further and much faster than normal. Tor will accumulate 2% damage per second while in the water of stages like Pirate Ship.
 * Equipped with Water, hit with Fire attack: Fire attacks such as 's Fire Breath will cause drastically increased knockback and damage.
 * Equipped with Leaf, hit with Air attack: Any effect that can push opponents back, like 's Storm Punch, will push Tor much faster and farther back than normal.
 * Equipped with Wind, hit with Earth attack: Earth attacks, like some of 's moves, will give Tor the flower effect.
 * Equipped with Light, hit with Dark attack: Dark attacks, like 's Warlock Punch, will give Tor the cloud effect, temporarily leaving him with weaker attacks.
 * Equipped with Dark, hit with Light attack: Stuns Tor as if his Shield was broken.

Trophies

 * Tor
 * Tor is a young Lupe who always dreamed of becoming a knight of Meridell. After his father gave him a package to deliver to the Army Recruitment Center in Meridell, Tor's life changed. Soon, he found himself on a spectacular adventure in which he battled the forces of the Darkest Faerie. After saving the realm from the great evil, Tor became the hero he always wanted to be.


 * Tor (Alt.)
 * Tor has brought his moves from The Darkest Faerie into Smash! With the power of his motes, Tor has a wide array of techniques at his disposal and the ability to counter almost any attack. Just be careful not to use the wrong mote or else you'll give the opponent the advantage instead!


 * Supernova Mote
 * In The Darkest Faerie, the most powerful mote was the rare Supernova Mote. If Tor charged his sword while using the Supernova Mote, he would become protected by a rainbow tornado that did damage to all who tried to attack him. In Smash Bros., the mote functions similarly. Use it while you can though, because the effects of the Supernova Mote don't last forever!

Trivia

 * Tor's introduction tagline is a reference to the first major quest in The Darkest Faerie, where Tor must deliver a package to the Army Recruitment Center in Meridell.

=Captain Price=


 * Captain Price Dares To Win!

Captain Price is one of the main characters of the Modern Warfare series of Call of Duty games. His voice actor, (not to be confused with ), could reprise his role.

Attributes
Captain Price's traits are similar to 's, and like Snake, has modern-day military-inspired moves taken from the Call of Duty franchise, specifically the Modern Warfare series (some of his perks are taken from Black Ops, however). While Snake and Captain Price share some similar moves, the latter is by no means a semi-clone. Through the use of his down special, One Man Army, Captain Price is able to change his attributes, as well as his special moves outside of down special. Each class has different weapons, equipment, and recovery moves. All classes outside of the default class have three perks and one deathstreak, each of which provides some sort of buff based on its effect from the Call of Duty game in which it appeared. All classes also come with 1-2 nerfs which are intended to balance them out.

Moveset

 * Captain Price can crawl, going about as low as Snake. He can also wall cling, using ice axes from the mission Cliffhanger in Modern Warfare 2, but unique to characters that can wall cling, cannot wall jump.

Taunts

 * Up Taunt: Captain Price says "Patience...don't do anything stupid!".
 * Side Taunt: Captain Price crosses his arms and says "How'd a muppet like you pass selection?"
 * Down Taunt: Captain Price switches his weapon. If he is currently using his machine gun, he will switch to his pistol, and vice-versa. Switching from machine gun to pistol is faster than pistol to machine gun, and is also faster than reloading the machine gun, making it a helpful taunt for emergency spacing.

On-Screen Appearance
An MH-6 Little Bird, carrying Captain Price, lands on the stage. He climbs off and cocks his machine gun as it flies away, sometimes saying "This is for the record."

Idle Poses

 * Captain Price taps his holster, as if checking to make sure his M1911 pistol is still there.
 * Captain Price straightens his left hand and waves it as if he is chopping the air, several times in succession. Idle soldiers will sometimes do this in multiplayer matches in some Call of Duty games.

Crowd Cheer
Captain - Price!

Victory Fanfare
The Task Force 141 multiplayer victory theme from Modern Warfare 2.

Victory Poses

 * Captain Price crouches down with his M4 carbine and says "Just like old times."
 * Captain Price aims his M1911 pistol towards the camera and says "History is written by the victor."
 * Captain Price, sitting down in a relaxed manner, uses a cigarette lighter in his left hand to start a cigarette he is holding in his right hand. He then casually takes a smoke.

Trophies

 * Captain Price
 * A former captain in the SAS, Captain Price is a decorated soldier, having seen it all during his distinguished military career, including hunting down an ultranationalist leader in Chernobyl, surviving an ice-cold Russian prison camp, and hijacking a nuclear submarine. However, his participation in the war against Vladimir Makarov truly sets him apart from the rest, as he was willing to do whatever it took to bring back the world he once knew.


 * Captain Price (Alt.)
 * Not many characters can adapt to situations as well as Captain Price. He can use One Man Army to make himself tougher, stronger, and faster. But no matter what class he's using, Captain Price is always a force to be reckoned with. After all, the more things change, the more they stay the same.


 * Tactical Nuke
 * In Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, any player who can manage to get 25 consecutive kills without dying can call in the fearsome Tactical Nuke. A deadly explosion, complete with radiation, will travel across the map and lead to victory for the player skilled enough to cause it. The enemies of Captain Price would do well to stay clear of him once he's broken the Smash Ball!

Alternate costumes

 * Tan - Captain Price as he appears for most of the time in Modern Warfare 2.
 * White - Captain Price as he appears during arctic missions in Modern Warfare 2.
