Simulacrum (Variable, caution) The Man Who Rocked the World by Miracle of Sound - classicdrogn - 06-22-2017 Lyrics: The Man Who Rocked The World Gavin Dunne 2016 Little Sophia Strange in ‘73 Her daddy’s yelling tirades at the TV Hey man be cool!! Sweeping the screen - rebel freak with a twist A skinny genie come to grant her a wish Changes the rules He’s a real pretty thing! But now she looks to the stars Oh with an ache in her heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home She’s reaching up for a song Oh but the music is gone For the man who rocked the world Is going home Big Johnny Butterfingers in ‘81 Searchin' the discos for that special someone It gets so tough Feelin' the pressure under laser lights But his feet go magic dancin’ when the song is just right Yeah that’s the stuff Let’s dance, Johnny But now he looks to the stars Oh with an ache in his heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home He’s reaching up for a song Oh but the music is gone Because the man who rocked the world Is going home Spaceman blasting away into the big black sky tonight Smiling, riding a trail of stardust home Little Gangly Geeky strainin’ through ‘95 Left on the outside flyin' far from the hive He don’t fit in Heart got a lesson from a stranger deranged Said it’s ok man, it’s cool to be strange Make a new spin Seems so far away And now I look to the stars Oh with an ache in my heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home I wanna hear one more song Oh let the music live on For the man who rocked the world Is going home Effect: Summons a simulacrum of David Bowie, any one friend Doug made during his travels, or Doug himself (but not a recursive copy of his song powers.) Caution: If Doug isn't concentrating on a specific friend (or RL David Bowie, who may or may not have been a freind in his native world) to summon, his subconscious chooses a David Bowie character to have appear instead. This can range from helpful (Jean Genie can grant wishes as long as some amount of mundane effort could fulfill them, Ziggy Stardust can control any spiders whether martian or not, etc.) to very unhelpful (Goblin King Jareth is a powerful, high ranking fae, this should be all the warning anyone needs) but it should be remembered that Doug's subconscious is a dick. Availability: most modern Earths ca. mid-2016 or later; almost certain after BGC. The lyrics are highly likely to trigger Doug's portal search criteria, with "the man who rocked the world is going home" repeated twice per chorus. Two Dougs with their music power occupied is only more useful than one Doug and any other simulacrum or effect in specific situations but they do exist, the most obvious being the ever popular "prove that I'm not my secret identity." -- "Anko, what you do in your free time is your own choice. Use it wisely. And if you do not use it wisely, make sure you thoroughly enjoy whatever unwise thing you are doing." - HymnOfRagnorok as Orochimaru at SpaceBattles woot Med.
