Broccoli

You are so good at pretending!

Ready to stitch back the fabric of reality, Friend-shaped poppet Broccoli (from ongoing webcomic “Broccoli Soup” by Secret Pie) is here to um participate in being a playable fighter,,,, but like,,,,, like not bruising anyone or anything,,, something like that

---

Broccoli (They/Them) has a knife in their pocket thats so sharp its capable of ripping the fabric of reality,,, fortunately for you (and not Broccoli) Just choose what kind of rip you wanna make with Neutral or Up Special and Broccoli will proceed! Unfortunately for you (and not Broccoli), Broccoli has five pieces of string to patch up any rips (meaning you can only have five out at the maximum) and anything hitting a rip will seal the fabric of reality back. Neutral Special rips reality infront of where broccoli is facing, while Up Special rips the reality above them.

These rips have a couple quirks, the default option creates a wormhole between other rips that Broccoli can travel through with air dodges. If Broccoli tries to create a wormhole while a wormhole is already out and not connected, Broccoli will travel through the wormhole if they are creating it with up special.

The other four options are element based; The water rip can raise characters up (similar to how muno steves water bucket works), the fire rip is spawns in multihit flames that go off every few seconds, the boulder rip sends in a bunch of decently sized boulder projectiles, and the lightning rip charges up a devestatingly brutal lightning strike.

The two other special moves have quirks worth mentioning; Down Special could’ve been the same as phoenix wrights except thee is no install because i dont know if broccoli has anything to object..? Forward Special has Broccoli knit a scarf (that looks like barf) to charge up and grab opponents with. Press the special or attack button after grabbing someone to launch broccoli toward the grabbed opponent.

Oh! Speaking of knitting… taunt has broccoli make a little sweater depending on who the other opponent(s) are! I dont personally expect any one of you to go out of your way to add this compatibility to your characters, but feel free to with contents below!
