Karate Joe

Appearance: Karate Joe is characterized by his almost entirely pale white skin, big nose, and balding head. He wears a karate suit that matches the color of his skin, white, and is barefoot. He is often described as very expressive and fearless. Sometimes he also wears red sporting boxing gloves and black shorts

Personality: Karate Joe loves to eat food between training sessions especially ramen. He also loves pancakes with honey. Karate Joe is a 55 year old lonely martial artist who struggles with his training. He seems to be developing his own unique karate style which incorporates rhythm. Karate Joe trains by punching objects, mostly flower pots, that his father throws at him to a rhythm. Sometimes he also trains by catching the objects mainly sticks. He has a very emotional personality, which can be seen in his many facial expressions. At the martial arts competitions, the opponent reads all his tricks, and he can't get results. Sometimes he goes to his master for advice, whose usual response is "You needed to focus on the basics." Karate Joe has dreamed of being a soccer player even since he was a child, but his Father wanted him to master karate instead, and told him that he can't leave his house until he masters it. Even as an adult, Karate Joe still lives in the basement. His Father also stole the ball that Joe had bought and used it as a punching bag, much to Joe's dismay as it he basically has to punch his dream away. Father got his son bombs to make him face his fears. At first, Karate Joe thought they were fake, but then one exploded. He still vividly remembers his Father's face as he said "Are you surprised?". Karate Joe has no idea where his father got them from. Father keeps a bunch of barrels around, but Karate Joe has no idea why. He asked multiple times, but was told that he can only know when he is stronger than his father (the barrels contain alcohol except for the ones which Father throws at Joe for training.) Karate Joe envies his Father's incredible vision that allows him to quickly tell the color of a light bulb and counter it. He also sees this as an explanation for how his Father can easily counter his attacks. At some point, he became the main character in a movie called "Karate Joe vs. the Monster", which will soon be coming to a cinema close by. Despite casting as the main character, Karate Joe didn't became famous and still lives in his father's basement. Karate Joe can typically only punch and kick away flower pots but if his flow rises he will be able to also punch and kick bombs and rocks. Karate Joe enjoys going to the club throwing on some shades and a purple suit with yellow rims. But he also enjoys a lazy day at home laying down watching some TV, mostly Karate videos of his past self. Karate Joe owns a cat who he likes to take care of. Karate Joe watches in awe at his father's mastery at karate also giving him constructive feedback. Here's a list of objects that Karate Joe punches/kicks during his training: Pot, Rock, Soccer Ball, Light Bulb, Bomb, cooking pot. If a light bulb that glows yellow is thrown, Karate Joe must punch a thrown barrel at him containing a bomb and kick that bomb away. If a light bulb that glows blue is thrown Karate Joe performs a combo on multiple pots and barrels at once finishing with an uppercut.

His father: His Father goes by the name of 'Father'. He has a tall, black, curly bumpy haircut. He wears a black karate outfit with a red belt. He has a mustache, sunglasses, and is barefoot just like his son. The two of them are also shown eating a lot of food between training sessions. Father is a master at karate, but not cooking. Occasionally he makes dinner anyway, such as one day when Karate Joe's mother was out of the house, and asks his son if he likes it. Joe has to lie and say that he likes it to make him feel good. Father sucks at cooking. Father trains Karate Joe in Karate because he wants to continue his family legacy.

Setting: All the characters live in rythmn heaven, a magical silly place where you are able to do anything - as long as you can do it in a rythmn. Going for a 'Perfect' is the hardest challenge, it means you have to perfectly time your actions to the rythmn of the music and aren't allowed to miss or be slight off a single time. If you manage to do that however, you'll be seen as very talented and admired by others. Some people of rythmn heaven will react judgemental if you mess up. That being said you don't have to do anything in rythmn if you don't want to, it's completely optional. Animals are able to speak the human tounge in this world as well as some objects.
