Jestergiest's body is covered by large patches of dark purplish blue, red, and grey, which are held together by thick strands of bugfrags. the patches divide jests face into two half's the left half is mostly normal the ear gently curves back and hangs loosely, the fact that the eye on that side isn't ever open doesn't bother him (as he never mentions it. like he doesn't know.) but doesn't seem to impair his depth perception either. on the contrast the right half has one piercing green eye which gazes wildly. almost in defiance of the left ears laziness the right ear has a sharp angular protrusion which makes itself stand out, almost to one up his other half.
Jest charges into battle with only a sparse amount of armor made of a strange bio-metal which shifts and bends to its users movements yet when it senses the users tensing muscles it reacts and can hold true against bone shattering impacts. bands of this metal are wrapped around his neck and waist, though the largest are wound around his forearms and shins. spikes reach upward out of the shoulder guards (on occasion daemon has seen enemy blades get caught in the gaps between these spikes as if the armor itself had tightened its grip and pinched the blade. thought that's just coincidence... right?).

Ducking and rolling ("Do a Barrel Roll!!!") between both of the storm clouds raining down upon the field, jest was doing fairly well avoiding them but just wasn't quite fast enough. as a result his left arm was caught and pelted by the death shower tattering the uniform. putting a bit of distance between himself and the viruses. "Noooo!! not a shower, please! anything but that!" "Oh, hush up. a little rain isn't going to kill you! i'm sending another chip, just try to finish these guys so we can move on to the bigger game."

turning back towards his fluffy pursuers Jest extracted his utility scythe and launched himself at the viri.

hello, I've just returned from a minor absent period and came back with a slightly more evolved design for my navi so here is the old look

and here is the new look



basically the same principle but i removed the chains because it became more and more apparent just how hard they were to get correct when drawing. also made the ears longer and altered the face. to be a smother transition from face to ears. among other minor alterations.

so are we good?

also if anybody wants to give tips on design aspects id be open to testing it out.

Sighting the puffy white rain clouds off to his left jest got into his battle stance. "We've got bogies at 10:00, requesting munition for suppressant fire." Flipping through their mildly diverse chip desk Daemon picked a few to get the battle started and slotted them into the computer. "Slot-in, Proceed with Field Testing."
Charging the little cloud viri, Jest Leapt once into the air then, as if pushing off of thin air made a second Leap gaining extra height. Jest Shoved both hands into his pockets and Dug around. pulling out an iron ball and a comically over-sized bone which he chucked like a boomerang at the Furthest cloudy. losing altitude Jest chose to target the closest of the other two cloudy viruses. Bring the metal ball behind his back Jest Gave a twist and flung the expanding ball at the Cloudy below.
being his first time using the double jump Jest made a fairly clumsy landing more or less stumbling, momentarily using his left arm to steady his balance, and then bouncing forward on the toes of feet to counter his downward momentum.

1) Double Jump (Movement & dodge : Remaining uses 5/6 : S)
2) Skully1 (100dmg + Homing + Confusion : C) CloudyC
3) Wrecker (80dmg + Break + Panel Break : C) CloudyA

A green light appeared in the netopian cyberspace, from which Jest materialized and stepped out of. "Alright the waters boiling, time to get this lobster in the pot! Do we have any takers?" Looking left and right he scanned the area for enemies or something to direct his attention towards.


[Awaiting battle 1]

Linking directly to the home page Jest was ecstatic about getting his new chips. "Whoo! That Navi just got Powned! Forget facepalm, more like face sidewalk! Am I right, Up High!" Daemon met this display of arrogance with a grimace. Jest was left hanging with both hands in the air. "You mad bro?" As if he had rehearsed the retort prior to jests arrival "You deleted a Net police navi! so, no i'm not exactly pleased about that. what if you had been caught or they had put up a jack out barrier?" letting his hands fall slowly back to his sides Jest let out a *whistle, splat* mimicking the sound of the falling NP navi. a smirk flashed momentarily across daemons face. Changing the subject, "Hmm... I would say we should go buy some upgrades because of your level up, but I sorta spent most of our zenny on chips so... I'm thinking we make a busting run to test out these chips." Before daemon even finished the sentence Jest was revved up and on his way. "Oh yea! I knew you couldn't really be mad at me Oppy. Alright, its my turn to pick the place this time!" Then in a flash of green Jest left for the next location leaving his operator to follow his hyperlink.

Jest had survived the drop and was sprinting down a narrow alley on his way to meet up with Rudy when she made more informative noises over the comm. apparently she didn't need help, nor did she want it. Daemon had already loaded a chip into the slot. "And here I was just about to do more than I signed up for. If you think you've got this under control, then I've got no qualms with splitting." Jest loaded the wrecking ball and tossed it over his shoulder where it became larger and heavier "There that should be a bit of an obstacle for the dirt bags." dissolving into a bright green light as he came to the end of the alley "you've got my number. Ciao!"


1) drop wrecking ball obstacle in narrow alleyway to slow down bikers.

The NP Sniper squeezed off her shot which was echoed in his ear piece from Rudy's end of the comm. link. Thankful he had just adjusted the volume or else it might have broken his concentration... Jest turned his end of Rudy's comm. link off for a second and said "Nice Shot." before jabbing and branding her right between the shoulder blades. She whipped around quickly to get a full view her attacker. instead the Blue eyed NP had a perfect view down the shiny metal end of a lot of hurt. Rethinking his actions momentarily as he clicked his comm. back on. Jest showed some sympathy for the NP navi, pausing in dramatic suspense for just a moment "Nothing personal about the branding. Its in my contract... But this isn't!" he deactivated the Machine gun and instead football tackled her out of the window. With both of them plummeting to what would seem to be a very messy end. Daemon had been wincing and had shut his eyes expecting a large mess instead he opened them to see two navis and the outside of the skyscraper moving with increasing speed.
"Have you lost your Mind?!!!" "Oh, hello Oppy perfect timing as usual." Jest reached out and took a grasp of the floating Screen with both hands. "Here's your heads up. I'm going to need the Dash Attack Again." With that said he attempted beating the NP navi with the Operator screen. the screen dissipated after a few swings (as this was not its originally intended purpose) just as daemon was seen loading the chip. Jest then tried to plant his foot squarely in the center of her face or chest in an attempt to push off and throw her downwards and him slightly upwards (though after a few moments they would be falling at terminal velocity again). "Don't worry she'll be fine, Cats always land on their feet.". With the Chip Data now loaded Jest used the NP Navi as his living jump timer the second she hit the ground he would use the dash attack to leap mid-air upwards and towards the Alleyway so as to counteract the speed at which he was currently falling. "Wait for it... wait for it... *Crash! Shatter!* Now!!"

1) Movement: Tackle / Falling
2) Movement: Falling / Tustle
3) Dash Attack : Used for its dirrectional movement ability to counteract the falling and possibly dying part.

is it going to be done as bit sprites? if so id ask for the ability to insert your own pixel sprite character over the default for users who have a knack at pixel sprites. though obviously it shouldnt be necessary for game play.

sprinting through the doors and doing a quick side roll into the room ready to fire upon any attackers or sudden traps. instead he was met with an eerie silence and light grey walls only accented by a single elevator... "why would anybody pay for all of this empty space? ECHO!!!!... echo" turning around towards the entrance he had just come thorough "I mean look at this Expensive waiste of perfectly good money! This smells like govenment... you know what I bet we paid for this in out taxes!" Jumps on one side ... "People!" Jumps back inside "No people!" Jumps back out side... before this became an game of "peat and repeat" Daemon interjected bringing some much needed focus to the mission. "What are you doing?! there is a mob of angry motorcyclists out for blood and you want to play hopscotch with the twilight zone? come on get you head in the game and complete the task at hand!". Amused by his Operators irritation. Jest chuckled a bit as he walked over to the elevator and pressed the button. the doors slid open and jest stepped into the pleasant music filled metal box. (elevator music ) as Jest stepped inside, the elevator activated and the doors closed behind him. not seeing much else to do during the wait he chose to pick at his headphone which seemed to have given him a lot of feedback during this mission. *Clink,Clink* "what the heck?" it took a few second of fumbling around his ear before he finally turned his head to look at his hand and found out that he was holding a gun to his own head. "Oh, oops." switching hands he made the correct adjustments.
the Door opened with a *Ping!* looking around the room it appeared equally as drab and empty. well other than the sniper standing conveniently unprotected from attack with her back towards the only apparent entrance onto this floor. Pulling the Brander from his pocket Jest prepped it for its final use. Brandishing both the Machine gun and the brander Jest quietly stalked up to his prey. Speaking to each other in private chat: "your not just going to kill her are you?" "Well, duh not if you distract me I'm not. anyways she wont be deleted... probly, she'll just get EJO'ed" Daemon obviously still having conflicting thoughts about this missions objective. "But that's a NetPolice Navi isn't it?" "Yea I hope so otherwize im in the wrong building...(the look on Daemons face made Jest think he had crossed a line somewhere)... Look I'm certainly not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. So if your finished... I'd like to get this show on the road!" Bringing the brander above his head like a black and white slasher film. Jest was ready for her to turn around after getting branded. At which point he would unload the entire clip in an attempt to knock her out of the window to give her a new perspective on life, but mostly just the concrete at floor one.

Peering down the the barrel Jest scanned the rows of windows finding nothing more than layers upon layers of working class navis. The distant explosion was his battle cry stirring and resonating deep in his being. Jest Stepped off the building and turned sideways slightly. RIP whirred violently from his place of slumber feeling the Jerk then plummeting as they both dropped towards the net floor 4.. 3 stories below. His very survival was being put onto this navis apparent death wish. The rip scythe summoned itself in Jests hand and planted itself into the wall. the tip skidded across the surface of it until it caught and dug in sending a shower of sparks and debris trailing behind. slowing their descent enough to make a safe landing at the ground floor.



Seeing no other choices than to either climb a sky scrapper like Kong or fight his way through the navi drones Jest went with the second option. sprinting head long towards the closest entrance and bursting in with Machinegun at the ready.

Dashing quickly between the gang members "What would a guy like me ever do without a homicidal weapon like you?" the only response to this was a grumbling static from his chest "Why can't I understand him again?" Daemon questioned "Don't know, don't care." Sticking his tongue out at the floating head of his Operator "maybe he doesn't like you." Crossing his arms in front of his chest Daemon was conflicted about the path his navi was leading him down. Was it possible He had spent to much time on his own.
Ignoring his operators indecision, Jest set off towards the closest building.
"Hmm, lets see... so, do I want less chips and an officer chasing me, or do I want more chips and a pissed off officer hunting me... I'll take option #2 please!"
Using the buildings fire escape Jest thought to himself "If only I had the double jump right now then could MegamanX my way straight to the top of this thing instead of using this long outdrawn metho.. hey I'm already at the top! huh, short building" looking around Jest spotted a much taller building one block over... "Time for some slow-mo Matrix Jumping Skills..." Seconds before leaping towards the next Building Jest looked towards the camera and said "Due to budget cuts this section has been replaced with a low budget matrix scene... Don't try this at home." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24hqdDDTZZs
... 20 minutes later
Slightly exhausted from jumping and climbing across building tops Jest Enacts his most secret ability on Daemon... Capcom logic POWN!!!...
"Hey I'll need the big gun. You know, just in case anybody jumps out and just randomly attacks me while I'm on top of this building 3 stories off the ground which just happens to have a perfect view at that sky scraper."
"I already know what your doing, you don't have to try and trick me to slot-in chips. Just ask like a normal person."
Turning away from his op Jest put one hand to his mic and began relaying a message "Deception compromised, I repeat Deception compromised." "who are you talking to?" Snapping into an upright position "Nobody! no-one at all."
Slot-in [Machinegun1]
Materializing the large machine gun on his arm Jest Set the sights and looked down the barrel towards the sky scrapper trying to find the Net Police Navis location. possibly trying to look for him as he was looking for her.

"Ghaaa!" The shrill voice in his ear went on a rant about an oganization he wasnt a part of and how he was soiling the name of crazy. And something about being related... Mood kill. ultimatly jest was letting pass in one ear and out the other just like all the other scoldings he got as an official navi. blah balah blah officails dont copy data from scilabs blah blah blah... same old, same old... "Ghaaa!!" he found himself saying for the second time as the two navis interlocked hands for a contest of strength that couldnt have lasted more than half a second.

The Last minute RageClaw Served to be less that useful against the large crushing grip of the Biker. Resulting in Jest being wrenched off of the bike and onto his back. Not to say that this was his first time being Flung around like a rag doll but it was his first for seeing a chip broke by a bare handed navi.

Dazed momentrarily something in the back of his mind was screaming at him... Litterally. "I reinforced your arm before he shattered the humans chipdata. Now, get off your @$$ before we both get killed you Moron!!" "Who are you, again?" "Oh, For the love of! we dont have time for this! Im taking control get out of the way!"

Jests eyes were glazed over and starring Upwards at the vast Net above him. the only thing blocking his view was a large Hulking Shadow standing to his right. Jests lips moved slightly and hissing static popped and crackeled from deep in his chest as his body lurched upright and arm extended towards the Brute. Two distinctly different voices/languages echoed simultaniously "shircack-010110-SHanah...FragPulse.. Pishhhhhhhhh010010"

Alright, now get up and get out of here while they're confused! Jest snapped out of it and after a second, jumped up into a stance like he had no clue where he was. Patting himself down looking for missing chunks his hand landed on... the brander sticking out of his pocket. The mission information flooded back into his head and remembered his objective. Daemon had seen the whole thing and after about having a panic attack Daemon slotted in a chip to give Jest a chance at escape.

*Contagious(Transmittable Glitch)
*HACK (+Glitch)
1] FragPulse (30Dmg + Knockback + Glitch)+Glitch
2] Slot-in [DashAttack] *Awaiting results before use*

Cocking his head back Jest gave a glance towards the alley way in thought. "Meh, It was probly a Dude anyway you'll just save me the time, laybor and disposal." Jest took a few strides then stepped up onto the motorcycle and Stood there for a moment. Then Plopped down akwardly on the seat propping his elbow between the handle bars.
Daemon was out of his comfort zone at this point franticly trying to find something to do about the situation... "Your going to get snapped like a freaking TWIG!!! Why doesn't that bother you?!!" *sifting quickly through the chip Deck* "Dang navi cant just have a normal fight gotta go having hair brained ideas without informing me... no, no..." "Hey OPPY! Just wanted to let you know, I can hear you *In a hushed tone* and you sound insane. need to lay of the Gamers Crack 'ight?" Daemon continues on unphased "Why isnt there a Super Buff arm Chip or something?!" "yea your scaring me imma just turn your volume down." *Still seen throwing papers off the desk and pulling empty pockets inside out* "This is it im gonna break my navi... again... Wait, aHA!!!" Finally finding the chip he was looking for, Daemon turned back towards the laptop to find he had been muted and that the contest was about to start. Daemon slid the chip in just as they were about to touch.
