Biography[]
DOJO, CASINO, IT'S ALL IN THE MIND
Lammy is the guitarist of the band MilkCan with bassist and vocalist Katy Kat and drummer Ma-san. Her story revolves around her trying to arrive on time to a concert she is supposed to play for, but instead getting stuck in a multitude of situations and having to perform the most absurd of tasks. But, thanks to a dream she had involving Chop Chop Master Onion, she knows that her guitar is in her mind wherever she goes, no matter the problem.
THE LEGACY OF LAMMY
- UmJammer Lammy
- PaRappa the Rapper 2
Arcade[]
Opening: Lammy is about to perform on stage until the lights suddenly go dark, and a pair of glowing eyes (Polygon Man) light up, along with a laugh being heard. She appears frightened until Chop Chop Master Onion appears beside her and reminds her that she is capable of unseen power, and then says his catchphrase: "Dojo, casino, it's all in the mind." Lammy wakes up and realizes it was just a dream. She then remembers that she is supposed to play for another concert at *insert location here* in 15 minutes, and that it's all the way across town and she can't be late again. She takes off down the street, saying "Ohhh, I hope nothing nothing bad happens on the way there..."
Rival: Vibri
Reason: Lammy arrives in the blue rival arena and stops to see Vibri skipping and singing. Vibri notices Lammy's guitar and says that she loves music and asks her to make music together with her. Lammy tries to decline because of her concert-related time constraints, but Vibri (exaggeratedly) get mad and declares that Lammy won't get past her until they play together. Suddenly, Lammy remembers that her guitar is in her mind and the battle begins.
Connection: Both are first-party characters who first appeared on PS1 and both are created by Nana-Oh-Sha. Their games are music-based also.
Ending: Lammy, Katy, and Ma-san are all shown about to head on stage in their performing attire when the two ask Lammy where she'd been the whole time, to which she replies "It's, um...a long story. I ran into a bunch of people on the way." Finally, just as they are about to perform, Katy asks Lammy if she's ready. She replies: "With MilkCan on my mind..." *glows with Polygon Man's power* "...I'm more ready than ever!"
Gameplay[]
Lammy would probably be around Spike's height. She would mostly retain PaRappa's agility and reliance on close-range, except she'd be a tad slower and more heavy-hitting for a more all-around experience. Her attacks would consist of simple kicks, her guitar, and even everyday objects.
(Square Moves)
- Kick, Kick, Jab!! -
- Lammy shyly does a weak kick to the opponent, then a slightly stronger kick with her other foot, and then finally jab the opponent with her guitar. - Pick! - or - Lammy plays a high note on her guitar while thrusting it forward.
- Burn! - - Lammy waves her hands in the air after playing a note, lightly knocking opponents upward with its energy. Holding the button would make Lammy rise into the air and perform the attack.

- Swing! - (midair) - Lammy swings her guitar downward in the air, immediately sending opponents to the ground.

(Super Moves)
- Lammy, Here! - (Level 1): Katy shows up behind Lammy saying "Lammy, here!" and throws Lammy's guitar to her in a boomerang fashion just as she had done for her at the beginning of the game, killing opponents in its path and returning to Lammy with a "ting!" sound.
- Auto-Pilot Off! - (Level 2): Lammy yells in terror and ducks out of the way as Colonel Fussenpepper's plane falls out of the sky and slams into the ground, killing any opponents it touches. The player can hear the colonel himself say "Eheh... whoops!" before everything disappears.
- Leave it to MilkCan!- (Level 3): The stage is transformed into the concert area from the final stage, and MilkCan is performing their song "Got to Move!!". Lammy and Katy are shown playing the "No cuttin' corners / She's on the border now" line before the camera zooms out on the line "Always at my best" to show the opponents helplessly jumping around in the foreground. Just like in the game, the player can hit the corresponding buttons to play Lammy's notes; this will cause colorful, very-hard-to-avoid lightning to strike opponents in the foreground and kill them. Lightning will still strike if the player gives no input, but it will be significantly weaker and barely score kills.
