If your OC had a boss battle, what would it be like?

[flaxenPhoenix]

For instance, your OC's boss subtitle, their battle theme, the genre they're from, the mechanics that set their battle apart from all the other enemies, etc.

I'll start:

ALOPEX IRONGALL
The History Professor Who Makes His Own Lessons

Battle music:

• Alopex's boss battle would likely be a bullet hell battle, taking place in some kind of time vortex.
• His bullet patterns for "nonspell" segments of the battle would use fire-type bullets that spin around like the hands on a clock, but his "spell card" segments would probably evoke various historical events, potentially with the implication that they're ones that Alopex has influenced on his travels, be they intentional or otherwise, direct or indirect.
• Fitting his "professor" motif, he'd likely be either right at the start of the game or right at the climax (or maybe both?), serving as a sort of "final exam" to see whether you're ready to embark on the rest of your adventure/whether you've become strong enough to have a fighting chance against the final boss.

Yona Lastname
Photovoltaic Battle Angel

(This is the most fight-y drawing I have of him)

I think he would be well-suited as a boss enemy in a character action game. He's kind of "overpowered" in that he's large, fast, and can regenerate fast thanks to being a plant. You would have to parry/block a lot and get hits in during his brief stun frames.

It's probably not a surprise that the Touhou nerd who shifted from Sonic to Furry also just ACCIDENTALLY started imagining doing a whole thing with characters and the like.

Also someone actually did a mockup of how it would work for my fax, Annai Siru:



I am eternally still floored that they wanted to do this with my funny evil fox

Granted, the way I have things figured out would involve moving around spells etc. but it's still hella rad. "Infernal Journey" gets shuffled around elsewhere in plans.

Though for the other details:

The Dubious Guide to the Lost
Annai Siru
Stage 3 midboss and boss (Stage EX Midboss oh no spoilers)

Mid-Boss:
Non-Spells: 1

Boss:
Non-Spells: 3
Spell Cards:
Natural Disaster "Soul-Draining Thorns"
Eternal Guidance "Path of the Flaming River"
Wildfire "Supernatural Light Dance"

The EX spell cards I was going with kind of themed off the ones Virtlux designed but also bringing in more of the guidance themes (maps etc.)

No non-Spells
Spell Cards: 3
Intended Disaster "Dance of the Cursed Knives"
Cartography "Fiery Silk Road"
Fox's Map "Fire Leading to the End"

Fiery Silk road would be the type of attack there where the boss is on screen is clear of bullets so it'd be following them through it Gradius Tunnel style. It's also on fire, duh.

If it isn't obvious spirits, fire and "guidance" is a theme here with Annai.

I could talk about a lot of OCs and the like but that's the first and easiest given someone has already done a chunk of the work XD

Sniper battle in a ruined/post-cataclismic/reclaimed by nature metropolitan area. Lots of free-running and parkour.

Honestly haven't given it much more thought than that.

Something like this.

Trivia pop quiz. Hope you've read all the codex entries *props up glasses*.

[Beancatte]

Cat variation of sona: basically screams "I DONT GIVE OUT ANY EXP!!! I DONT EVEN HAVE ANY ITEMS!!!" before dying in one hit.

Yinglet varation of sona: glass cannon bastard who runs across the room so you cant get a clean hit in. Throws rocks and hammers at you

Oliver: Has a theme and attacks inspired by various Adam Sandler films. Brings out the Click remote to make patterns reverse at one point

[Linzolle]

i've drawn my sona in Soma's outfit from castlevania before which would be kinda fitting aesthetic for a boss fight version of her but i feel like the fight itself would actually be more like, a soulslike game where she has some sort of Vergil moveset with summoning swords and throwing them at you

and the boss title on her health bar would probably just be her un-nicknamed name,

ALEXANDRIA


of course with the song being something like this esp because she shares in common with Ji from nine sols that they're both immortal

My fursona's boss battle consists of a one-on-one race around a track with heavy traffic while pumping music plays. Five laps, no weapons, first to cross the finish line wins. Basically, this energy:
