That was a fun short series they released. It has a silly tone to it and unique story telling to it.

[@ToontownAndCpenguin]

Yep, for sure, that surprises no one. I play a chaotic good character in a RP where the entire party is comprised of cops which is a lot of fun, he doesn't fancy himself being evil like Giovanni but he always tries his best to look out for the party. I took some inspiration from Giovanni for my character but definitely is very different, he's also got a little bit of Molly in him too like sometimes he can be unsure of himself. He supports & lifts up others because he feels his self worth is very minimal but will do anything for the people he cares about in his life, no matter the cost & yeah, that did indeed include murder, caused a whole controversy in the group actually that went on for months. He had good reason, they were working for an evil goddess & it's a long story but he did it with good intentions. There was a private session I had with the GM working with a group that lives in a bad part of town that doesn't get much help from law enforcement so they tend to take the law into their own hands & my character fully supports them & helps when he can. They had this thing where they were shutting down a drug operation in their territory & called in my character to assist he had a unit he commanded & I had him channel that inner Giovanni Potage for it, even went as far as referring to them as his boys & gained their trust by getting personal with them like talking out feelings & whatever since not everyone was on board with a cop calling the orders. Later on when my GM watched Epithet Erased, he picked up on exactly what I was doing & I shared a picture of my Giovanni plush with him. I also would use Epithet Erased gifs in the chat whenever given the chance so my love for the series definitely was not a secret, I'm the reason he was even watching it given we watched it together in this thing we do when we each bring a show to the table to watch together, we do so like every other week so yeah, I got to hear his reactions to Giovanni live, it was awesome. Giovanni is definitely one of my top favorite characters in this series but I love a majority of them, so hard to pick & choose favorites but Giovanni totally has a top spot, there's a reason why I got a plushy of him, would of got one of Molly as well but I could only afford one during the time they were available.

Personally I think I know my Epithet. Ballistic. Ballistic is usually associated with ether going nuts, or explosions. It's true meanings are 1: relating to projectiles and there flight, 2: moving under the force of gravity only. My idea of ballistic is basically increased gravity, making it harder for my foe to move, and explosive as hell punch. And considering I have a somewhat short fuse I think it works way to well.
