The Old Thread - TLDR
The project was created in June 2007 with this thread, which has since been archived. Hit TLDR to read a summary of the project history.
- What is Super Makoto?
Super Makoto is a fan-created alternate universe based on the Ace Attorney / 逆転裁判 video game series.
In this superhero-themed alternate universe, the Ace Attorney cast is given new life as characters in a grand opera drawn from the myths of the modern day: comic books and manga, cartoons and anime, video games, classic fiction and beyond. Superheros and supervillains clash across the many pages of this work, produced by the sweat, tears, and deep affection of humble Ace Attorney fans - people just like you.- - - - -Spoiler: Our premise in a nutshell. (by Urby) - How did this project begin?
It was all a misunderstanding, really.
One day, a bunch of people were sitting around in the paintchat and then decided to take turns on a collaborative doodle. Urby drew Makoto, naturally.Quote:Urby: Makoto is going on an adventure!And MSOB drew a red cape on her. Hilarity ensued... and the rest is history.
MSOB: You have no idea.- - - - -Spoiler: The one that started it all (various artists) - I want to contribute! But how?
If you have any written ideas, art, or designs, simply upload them for public view on this thread here, where everyone in and out of the project can review and discuss it. The Super Makoto project can always use fresh ideas and contributions! Every submitted idea or design will be considered by the project members, and people who consistently contribute good, workable ideas can find themselves on that team list. You don't even need to have your own ideas, all you need to do is offer constructive input and opinions. Fresh perspectives on old information is always welcomed, as we seek to improve every aspect of the project.
Contributors - These are folks who have contributed to the project in ways big and small, but are not currently attached to it on a consistent basis. Some have created concepts while others have participated in discussion, and some have just been there to offer their support. If you were left out of the list, I apologize!

To pick up with discussion, here's a brief summary of recent topics of discussion. Feel free to browse the last pages of the old thread, if you think you need more details.
Pie wrote:
The current focus of discussion is "characters we desperately want to use but can't seem to find a good place for". Namely, Shelly de Killer, Viola Cadaverini and Dee Vasquez. The only general consensus is that Dee is somehow tied into the the Cadaverini family, perhaps an aunt to Viola.
One idea is that Dee killed Manuel Rivale, and someone close to her was killed by Shelly de Killer in revenge. Matt was given her help to become a star, but because he went through a mafioso producer to do this, he had to repay the favor. Dee asked him to help them get revenge on de Killer. However, since Matt was a mere actor, he was caught and stabbed in the face, making him turn to the help of Holy Trinity.
A side idea for this is that Dee can grant any character a sort of limited immortality, in exchange for their servitude. There's a lot of issues involved in this which are still being ironed out.
Viola has a lot of potential ideas going for her, many of them dark, gothic, or witch-like in nature. Once such idea is giving her a witchblade. Another is having her be the descendant of an oracle, a super who worked for the mafia in ages past, and having the spirit sometimes possess Viola in the present.
One way or another, we're getting into mafia business. Which means Wocky and his family will probably serve as an important bridge between the world of superhero justice and the world of mafia 'justice'. You'd bedda watch which bakery you'se buyin' bread from. Capisce?

And now, to ensure this thread remains ontopic and littered with delicious eyecandy, here are some images Bee has drawn of Witchblade!Viola, since they're hot and relevant.

Pfff, let's not get into unusual similarities, shall we? Many of them can just be chalked up to a common canon source... let's just leave it at that before things get ugly.
Especially since last time I checked, Spark/Lotta was the newstastic crack ship of choice for the fandom, because Spark + Lotta = SPARTA. They work so well once you think about it, they should be canon partners.
Also, our Lotta is hottah.

I know. I talk formal because I'm a talker, a woman of business. I apologize if you have a problem with that.
But I was quite serious about the grovelling. Not only was I promoted to second in command of Super Makoto recently, but the wiki was initially my suggestion to Bee all the way back in May, which he wisely adopted. If you're going to be borrowing ideas, you should give credit where it's due, don't you think?
You can, however, grovel to Bee as well. I don't think I would've been able to push forward the idea of a wiki for the project on my own.

AND LESS PLEASES, PLEASE,YOU'RE STRETCHING THE PAGE.
Glad to have you back, Minuki/Lydia. I figured you were caught up with RL stuff, but don't worry—the project never forgets its own.
Back to some serious discussion, Redd White really wasn't much more than a generic thug in the original canon, though I personally do feel a little guilty that his colleague, Juan Corrida, is a gazillion times more awesome than Redd is at the moment. Until we think of some kind of gimmick for Redd, at least...
I guess one hook we could get at is Redd's relationship with April? At the moment he remains a faceless, distant master and commander. I think it'd be fine to move him more towards the fore, possibly as a rich magnate who exercises control in the upper echelons of society. He might be the one to fund Holy Trinity's experiments, as well, rather than putting Manfred's name and identity in danger. He should be involved in possibly several other of Manfred's conspiracies, and act as a "bridge villain" towards Manfred's arc.
Yeah, I'll admit that Redd was just a stepping stone in the greater scheme of things, heh.

When you get a chance, could you put a space in the middle of your pleases? The page is stretching. ^^;
Otherwise, that's some good grovelling. I approve.
As for Redd, I wonder if we can't give him something to make his story arc more his own? Rather than making him just the bridge to Manfred? He's a grand asshole who owns his own little empire of information, there's so much more he could be doing on the side even if he is serving the emperor. Hell, why is he serving von Karma? I could see him getting paid a king's fortune for it...
As for his connections to April, there's so much fun we can have there. If April has developed somewhat of a maternal relationship with Daryan, the hell are the dynamics between Redd and Daryan gonna be like?
Also, speaking of story arcs, how does this sound so far?

If Daryan looks up to April as mother-figure which logically mean that he focuses of his emotions(love?) on her. So, if April gets into a deep relationship with another guy (Redd for example), she 'll focus on Redd instead of Daryan. And, like any child turned away by his mother for another man, he would get jealous and even outraged for taking away his "mother". Which could to a development of bitter hatred for Redd which could build-up as he gets older. Afterall: "Daryan doesn't like you."
Perhaps even lead to a "Villian vs Villian" relationship somehow for Daryan and Redd down the timeline or in another story arc. But, this might be crossing into "anti-hero" territory for Daryan.
Also, I was reading over Daryan's profile and his parents are mentioned. I understand his parent's got into a search for a treatment his "acute condition". Eventually, have them brought him to the Holy Trinity Hospital. Then he gets submitted for "treatment" and he stays there for the rest of timeline until he escapes. This seems like a minor loose end to me, but what happen to his actual parents? Did they just abandon him there? I'm not saying to make them important characters or anything, but shouldn't there be little closure to this before April become his "caretaker"?

Daryan rides that road quite a lot, actually. Which is a hard road to be riding in a story like this. Out of all our current villains, it's probably easiest to develop sympathy for him - a lot of things happened to him that were undeserved and generally not his fault, so you can start to understand him well.
Why he's still a villain? Because whether or not he does things that make sense, shows signs of heart, or generally has moments where he seems more an antihero, it's important to remember that his actions are still going to be 100% crime, and whatever emotional issues he has he really could be dealing with them better. His cause doesn't justify his means.
Of course, by realizing this, it doesn't take much to realize that he's a smack upside the head from being an antihero, though.
As for his parents... the current handwave is that he lost contact with them, having spent his entire childhood in a medical facility cut off from the world. However, I have considered that they could be killed any number of ways after he's submitted, like a death by plane crash... explaining his fear of them. Worse, Bee's suggested that Turner Grey could arrange to have them killed somehow, which would leave their son in their hands.
It's open to suggestion, I think.

My idea was that the "oracles" be descended from the Pythia, the oracles of Delphi, something that certainly stretches throughout the history of that particular region of the world. Hmm.
But we do agree on the organized crime bit. From what it sounds like, the oracle may have already had her own faction in place for protection, like an order of mystics. After the oracle's death, they preserve/trace her bloodline so they can keep track of potential heirs, since not everyone in the family possesses that power.
I don't think it would be right to use a prophecy to preordain Viola. It should be something more like a random process, a reason for the Cadaverini line to proliferate and survive in hopes of finding the rightful heir (similar to the Fey clan?). Eventually this leads up to the present, and Viola's budding power, which Dee Vasquez discovers and tries to nurture, getting into the potential oracle's graces for her own nefarious purposes.
But that's just my opinion.

There's a few problems on that, some which can be tweaked pretty easily but are still a bit annoying... mostly relating to Delphi itself. On one hand, Delphi's a city of Greece, not Italy, but that's not too glaring to myself, given my own name is Italian from "Trojan", and Troy was in Turkey. Plus, the name "Pythia" was derived from the rotting of the body of the monstrous Python which Apollo slew at the site, which actually works pretty well with the "Cadaver" or "corpse" in Cadaverini.
But what's more difficult about making this idea work would be the temple at Delphi itself. The location was an important part of who the oracle was, if not more important than the oracle herself, especially since succeeding oracles were chosen by merit, not blood. As good ol' Wikipedia tells it...
Wikipedia wrote:
There are many stories of the origins of the Delphic Oracle. One late explanation, which is first related by the 1st century BC writer, Diodorus Siculus, tells of a goat herder called Kouretas, who noticed one day that one of his goats, who fell into a crack in the earth, was behaving strangely. On entering the chasm, he found himself filled with a divine presence and could see outside of the present into the past and the future. Excited by his discovery he shared it with nearby villagers. Many started visiting the site, until one of them was killed by the experience. From then, only young girls were allowed to approach the chasm and then in conditions regulated by a guild of priests and priestesses.
... meaning unless we can give her some subtle power in the meantime she's useless, because until she goes on a pilgrimage to Delphi, she can't really be the Oracle. I think. Weird as that may sound.
(Also of note, Apollo took the site after killing the serpent there, but says here that Poseidon, god of sea and earthquakes, held it before him, and Gaia, mother earth goddess of everything, before that. The site's considered a womb of the earth, basically. Don't... don't think about that too hard. D: )
I'm intrigued by some parts of WE's idea, but I'm really not so keep on the spirit possession and, if we're going into history anyway, just calling her a witch. ... question, does anyone know much about Wicca? I'm wondering if we shouldn't be looking for elements there to solidify the ideas we have tumbling around about Viola's character.

I mean, for example, there was the idea for Dee's "contract" ability, where she grants an individual eternal youth or immortality in exchange for total obedience to her (much like a puppet on a string, or leash). That and we also have to define the extent of oracular powers Viola may have, if any.
As for verifiable details, the "Witchblade" would, in the original comics, eat your arm off if you were not worthy of using it. :U
And a lot of witchcraft seems to flow from worship of the goddess Diana, who was Apollo's sister in Roman mythos... hmmm.

If not Diana, it's often a satanic figure, particularly as Christianity has had its say and turned most of the non-Christian god ideals into the devil. (Why does this give me the mental image of Viola trying to decide between helping Dee and helping Trucy?)
Anyway... I dunno. I feel like we haven't quite nailed the idea for Viola's character yet. There's so many ways you can play with that one idea of "she's a witch" that we really need something unique and relevant to the rest of the story. You know?
On another note, thanks to Jaws asking me the right questions, a new idea has been hatched for the handwave of Daryan's parents. "Why not have another character kill them?" (He suggested The Edge as something that looks like a good parent-killing thing, lolwhut) I started to talk and think at the same time, noting that we actually don't have many characters who'd kill another character's parents...
... except we do, depending on who they are. Damon Gant kills superheroes. Let that sink in for a second.
If Daryan were the son of two superpowered heroes, and one considers all the genetics involved in two supers having one baby, it makes sense why he'd be born with a supernatural condition that was powerful and unstable.
If those parents died, it'd be another thing screwing up his morality - without being in their care long enough to be taught their heroic beliefs, the moral of that story may boil down to, "They helped other people, and they died for it."
And let's say he doesn't know who killed his parents, because he was already at HT at the time of the incident. Gant could, during his story arc, convince Daryan to do some work for him and Daryan starts to follow him, up until he somehow finds out that Gant killed his parents...
Insert shark rage, followed by a nice dose of failure because Gant could probably electrocute him into submission, followed by Daryan returning home with his tail between his legs and only having Konrad (who he wouldn't know is Rocktra yet) to turn to about his severe emotional trauma and what an asshole Gant is...
How does all that sound? Tune in next week when I suggest that we shoot his dog.

But yeah, Daryan sounds a lot like a Woobie Villain; and every franchise needs at least one character like that. To explain more, it's a character that people like to see in trouble so they can feel sorry for them. With villains, it gives you that extra knife-twist in the gut when the character does something really evil.

I think this concept would work perfectly on behalf of both Daryan's and Gant's characters.
I have ask this before I go on with my notes on Daryan. After Daryan escapes from HT, he fades away for while before befriending Konrad. Would this be around the time Daryan could start to work for Gant? If so, I'm guessing this would leaking into the first half of the Gant arc, right? Anyway, If Gant is gonna get Daryan to work for him, perhaps a promise of more atrocinine is in order for getting Daryan into doing a few side jobs for him. Daryan did stole the Borginian Cocoons before his escape, he surely couldn't have stole over a years worth of them considering unstable powers are usually Very unstable. Maybe this can be could be used as way to push Daryan into becoming Hairaiser?
As for Gant, it pushes the point that Gant kills superheroes who many of them have had their names forgotten. It's mentioned into Wiki article for Gant's arc but nothing really more then that. It comes across to me that Gant is a solo villian after the betrayal of SL-6 so, Gant is a little lacking in the friends/allies area. So having Daryan work/hire would help connect Gant a little more with the active character cast of the Gant Arc. Maybe, a chain of command kinda thing?
During the bound to happen "Hairaiser Vs. The Kiddy Fiddler " battle, Hairaiser's Hair = Thunder Rod?
(Also, If I'm using the names in the wrong context, please, correct me.)

But yeah, I've actually felt like he's been somewhat of a woobie character since his development has opened the door for so much crap to happen to him. I haven't said it myself, since he seems like the sort of character who'd hate to be called a "woobie". Anyway, in this context, I admit that I'm probably responsible, since I'm a Daryan fangirl and hee mekes mee feel ell verm und foozzy inseede, bork bork bork.
Spoiler: Look at that face and tell me he doesn't need hugs. (4-3 spoiler sprite.)
But then I keep going out of my way to make him more vicious and harder to actually hug. Because if he were easier to hug, he'd be an antihero, not a villain, and he wouldn't have half the problems he does.
MSOB - What, not even a comment on that remark about TRUCY IS A WITCH, BURN HER!?
Ami - New thread means new visitors, it seems. Awesome Thanks for stopping by and reading what we've got so far!
BP - All the names are right. "Lightning" is Gant pre-SL-6 Incident, "The Kiddy Fiddler" is Gant post-SL-6 Incident, Gant is always Gant. I tend to avoid using "The Kiddy Fiddler" myself because I think it sounds dumb. I think Bee suggested making him an alien, and having his alien name sound sort of like "The Kiddy Fiddler", which could work, and actually adds to Lightning's Superman parallel...
Anyway, the times of the Gant Arc are definitely more than adjustable, much like the bulk of the whole plot right now. I have it written down that the first time Daryan becomes Hairaiser, Konrad is not only his friend, but Konrad knows who he is from the start. However, this can be changed - but as you yourself pointed out might not even have to, if we assume that Daryan could have done work for Gant before he took the name of Hairaiser and became an actual villain.
Which means Gant not only killed Daryan's parents which pushed Daryan towards villainy, not only got Daryan to do work for him despite this which would push Daryan towards villainy with the eventual betrayal, but even helped him get into actual villainy in the first place. (Which might in turn explain Daryan's spandex costume, since we seem to keep away from them, besides those two. Ooh, new costume for Daryan after Gant, maybe?) Oh Gant, you're turning into such a magnificent bastard. And Daryan, you continue to approach but never cross the line between villain and antihero. I like this all far too much.
Yes, electricity is on Daryan's long list of weaknesses (he's a glass jaw villain - extremely powerful but easy to take down due to crappy resistance). Partly because his main weapon is hair, partly because of his shark-ness - his senses are keen, meaning his nerves are sensitive, especially to electricity, especially to ELECTRIC PAIN.

We just don't like the page being stretched out :3 Neatness and all (which is why we put all of our big canvas pchat pics in spoiler tags).

I dabble a lot in web design and graphic design, so stretching tables are a visual nightmare to me. D:
Having it right on the first page of the thread, too, isn't the best way to kick things off. And then there was looking down at the Topic Review when making a reply, and having that be stretched...
But thank you for taking care of it. Much better!

Yeah, "the Kiddy Fiddler" is kind of outdated since it refers to the old "Gant rape" meme, and, well, for purposes of SMako we can't have him do any rape or fiddling. Unless you count his manipulating Daryan to become a villain... D:

Actually I think I recall something. I remember we were discussing how sometime during one of the arcs Pearl may be reunited with her mother and, because mother can do no wrong, will help Morgan collect the Magatamas, thinking that it'll be for the greater good.
But if we were to explore this idea, how would Pearl meet up with Morgan. Remember that Morgan thinks that Pearl could be possibly dead, and Pearl thinks her mother is completely dead after the destruction. Could Gant possibly play a role in this meet-up?

It's possible, just a few things may need tweaking. Well, from what I understand, Mime seems to be the key connection between Pearl and Morgan after The Destruction of Kurain Village. Maybe there is a way to have Gant intercept Mimi's spywork on Pearl for Morgan and "fiddle" with it. Like indirectly turning Mimi into agent for his own needs somehow. Just throwing the idea out there.
