Yes, another joke thread (Dragon Ball)

[Nullflowerblush]

Don't worry, I'll actually get around to applying this one. The Demon Clansmen—King Piccolo, Piccolo Jr., Tambourine, Cymbal, and Drum—have two (count 'em) special abilities that are underrepresented on the Wiki as of current. Uniquely, due to their infinitely evil and wicked nature, they can banish souls into a state of purgatory and completely destroy the Nimbus Clouds, the vehicles of pure-hearted warriors.

Voila! The source code, including references (very important) can be found here.

Limited Soul Manipulation (Demon Clansmen, by nature, banish the souls of their victims to purgatory in the mortal realm, thus preventing ascension into the afterlife), Limited Immortality & Regeneration Negation (Non-combat applicable; Types 2 and 3; Mid-High; The Nimbus Cloud is capable of quickly reconstructing itself after "injury", including being blown to smithereens, and is regarded as indestructible, but can be destroyed permanently by Demon Clansmen, as demonstrated by Tambourine)

See, see, the "joke" is: the abilities with the largest amount of detail on these pages are the ones that do not ******* matter.

As a side-note, Piccolo'll need an additional key in his Powers and Abilities section, representing his 23rd Budokai iteration, to include his Demon Clansmen abilities, as he lost his pure evil by the time Z began. Nothing major, just a new vertical bar, and a little "All previous abilities, with the exception of Limited Soul Manipulation & Dimensional Travel Nullification and Limited Immortality & Regeneration Negation (As his evil faded, his Demon Clansmen abilities disappeared)".

Heard this before

You do realise that you need to spam the walls of moderators for minor revisions.

For some reason, I doubt that.

Anyway, the additions here seem fine, although I don’t see why destroying the Nimbus would be Immortality Negation?

 

[SamanPatou]

I'm not sure they should have Dimensional Travel negation, souls in DB aren't naturally able to cross-planes by themselves, them passing over is just how death works in-verse.
Like, I think that if post-Yardrat Goku were to be killed by a demon clansmen, his soul would still be able to teleport like he did many times while death.

I'd also call everything related to the nimbus limited, since we have no proof they can negate the regeneration of all beings, and many characters healed just fine from wounds caused by them.
I'd say it's more because of the demon ki tampering with the magical properties of the clouds themselves.

When Goku dies, his soul passes into Other World, and King Yemma recreates his body, which is why he is able to train in the afterlife and even return to Earth and fight there. However, if his soul were to be trapped in purgatory, then his soul would be left to wander about without a body. Although, yeah, the point about death's in-verse mechanics debunk Dimensional Travel Nullification, so I'll get rid of it.

Limited and non-combat applicable.

The villagefolk state the Nimbus cannot be destroyed. Goku saw the Nimbus get blown to smithereens and believed the cloud to have been obliterated completely, but the Nimbus persisted in this convincingly "dead" state and regenerated after. This suggests Immortality, which is then nullified when Tambourine attacks, forcing Goku to retrieve an entirely new Nimbus.

 

[Nullflowerblush]

Bump.

 

[ShakeResounding]

Straightforward enough, I agree

[Nullflowerblush]

Are the changes acceptable to apply?

Bump, what do you think so far?

 

[TheGodOfICE777]

Why is the soul manipulation limited? Seems like it should be full on

 

[LephyrTheRevanchist]

Because they aren't actually manipulating the soul per se, but a consequence of them killing someone.

 

[TheGodOfICE777]

I don’t see how it being a consequence makes it limited since it’s still banishing the soul instead of allowing it to go to the afterlife

 

[SirAlex09]

I agree

 

[SwordLegendz01]

Seeing how this hasn't been added yet whereas Garlic Jr already has it in his profile.

 

[Borutonarutodebunked]

Seems good, I agree.

 

[LordGriffin1000]

I agree with the additions in the OP and the update to Piccolo.

 

[SwordLegendz01]

Can someone apply this now?
