It would be best to have whoever's present fight first... Saves time...

Question, are you going to post a technical sign-up for your character change Dante? I don't know everything that he does really... Are Jutsus some sort of magic?

EDIT: Also, IHMN, when are you going to post a char since it looks like this whole thing is about to start.

Ok how's this:
Biran vs. Forever Zero
Judges: Dragonglove and IHMN

Jutsu
Basically Japanese for technique, skill, abilty or spell. It can also be used when describing a combat form: e.g. GenJutsu, TaiJutsu, NinJutsu. In the world of Naruto, they can be performed with the use of Chakra and a Seal.

Essentially, they are special techniques, like a hadoken or shoryuken. some are chakra-enhanced while others rely on superior body capabilities.

Jutsu Types
There are five main Jutsu types: Water, Fire, Lightning, Earth and Wind. However, there are also other types, such as wood.

Hatake Kakashi

Chakra

So, basically, your like MC's guy, but elemental instead of chi?

Something like that, but not so focused on the hand-to-hand. He can invoke elemental effects similar to relatively powerful spells, though he needs to make complicated gestures to do it. He can also do minor summonings, though not Efreet of Shiva (Naruto summons are usually mystical creatures which stick around to help their summoners).

I'll be on mostly until around 10:00. So, the sooner we get this started, the better.

So I guess I'm doing the first fight? Hmm, the person that goes on first on TV always loses... Meh, I'll do it, should be interesting, although being a trailblazer is overated...

It's always the last guy who trumps everyone...

Who're the first combatants? I don't mind doing announcer duty while I'm not fighting...

Well, let's get this show on the road!

Edit: Me and Forever are the first combatants.

Create the thread, then...

I'm waiting for Forever to PM me about the battle arena first.

Edit: While we're waiting, I'll randomize the other battles. If anyone has any protests, say now. (To Forever Zero) And it's easier to PM, that way we don't clog up this board.

I figured we could discuss it in the thread, but I can PM you too.

Oops, just noticed the PM...

Name: Guy
Race: Human
Class: Psy-lord

Looks: Looks around 20, wears a plain black shirt and black pants. Blue eyes and brown hair, but eyes glow in an eerie black light when he uses powers. When he moves, four images of himself trail his movements, then disappear soon after.

Weapons: Varies scarabs and swords are all over his body, though he has almost never used one in his hands. Many knives, as well as a couple of poles, as well as metal spheres.

Skills: Thinks at speed of light, allowing him to do multiple things at once. Telekinesis and telepathy. Can make barriers out of nothing. Mind Control (Obviously none of you, but summons are another story…)

Fighting Style: Rarely ever moves unless needed. Will float in one spot he chooses, then use his powers to defeat his enemies. Usually he either attacks his opponent with a mixture of all of his weapons, psyonic blast (The thing Prof X does to Juggernaut), telekinetic blast. If enemy gets close, makes a barrier to protect him, and either attacks him with weapons while guy is stuck behind barrier, crush with barrier, fly away to get a better spot, or attempt to make them think they are 3 years old forever.

Back Story: Was born, had psychic powers, abuses them… Is this really important in this RP, all we do is fight each other…

How strong he is will depend on who I am fighting (If it's Raiden or Dante, he will be played as strong. If it's someone else, he would probably be played as weaker)

I have a free weekend, so you guys can try and plot me in for that time, since we are plotting times.

Ok, I've randomized the players, and here are the battles. PM each other about the battle arena, it can be ANYTHING as long as you both agree. You can also start whenever you are both ready.

GatoFiero vs. dragonglove

Tor vs. IHateMakingNames

Dante vs. MC43

And CO Cheddar, you are lucky, beacause you are the odd man out, so you can choose to either go to Side A or Side B. There will always be one man out.

Edit: Oh, and of course Forever Zero vs. Biran

I suggest me vs Dante... We are one much more, Tor and MC have been here about four times... (Basing on post)

From a posting standpoint, that sounds fair.

I just randomized it, and no one had any problems before, you are right, but I don't think it's fair to change them now.

If IHMN's guy and mine are powerful enough, then we'll meet in the end, anyway. I'm *not* using DS, btw.

OMG!!! I completely forgot about Raiden!!! Ok then, he'll be fighting CO Cheddar.

So the postings now are...

Biran vs FZero
Gato vs Dglove
Tor vs IHMN
Dante vs MC43
Cheddar vs Raiden

*Raiden powers up his magic.*

I pity 'da foo' who go up against me!

Dante, this isn't really a battle of power, but more of how much the user wants to god mod (Loser), how reasonable the user is (taking hits, not doing impossible things), and who seems smarter (Cause stupid people are bad)

You know, you guys can start the battle anytime, you don't have to wait for Forever Zero and me to finish.

I've been checking in from time to time, I'm not just posting up useless stuff to take up space and peoples time to read the post.

I WOULD start, but Cheddar isn't on... So I'll just take out IHMN!

*begins to blast IHMN with his dark magic.*

MC43, I'd PM Dante and tell him that you guys can battle any time now. I mean, both of you are logged in...

Edit: And someone could PM GatoFiero or dragonglove and tell them...(voluntarily of course. And don't bother telling me I spelled it wrong because I know.)

Heh, moogle man, we're already two steps ahead of you. We'll see you on the other side of this fight.

a few questions:

is it too late for me to join in?
can characters be from an already made rp game?
how open is the technology level? (of course I know there's nothing insane like apocalypse-capable-city-sized-mech-stuff)

No guns... 1v1 fights would be really boring with guns...

"Ready... GO!"

*Bang*

"WINNER!"

Unless you did it the Matrix way, whereupon the second guy dodges and fires with his AA, then the first guy leaps up, stick to the ceiling and starts running around shootdodging upside down from the ceiling...

Pretty corny, IMO.

But what about the man with the Uber 733T skills that can deodge the bullets?

Ready... GO!

(Bang)

(Dodge then runs up and beats the crap out of the gunner)

Winner!!

MC, it works like this.

"Ready... GO!"

Uses 1337 skills to dodge bullet and runs towards gun guy to punc him. *BANG* Point black shot in the head.

"WINNER!"

You just want to win every arguement...

That's IHMN for you... not that I blame him. Everyone likes to win.

No, guns beat melee, plain and simple.

I've PM'd GatoFiero about our battlefield. I don't know when he is planning on going online though.

Darktoaster you are welcome to make a character. Tech level is medieval time with magic and such involved. Our characters have been taken from many different sources, so use whomever you want. We did have some balance issues but make a combatant and we'll see how it comes out. If it's okay with the others, maybe we could fight the first match instead of GatoFiero.

I beg to differ, but I won't fight back, it's pointless. Let's just agree to disagree and say no guns.

<BALEETED!>
EDIT: sorry, I'm slowly losing it tonight

I answered that, three posts up.

Just take my advice, if no one says no, you're safe. Go ahead and post up a char, and if we don't like you, we'll just tell you to go away.

Actually, we'll just give pointers to fix up the character. Not really you leaving, you know what I mean.

Raiden: Sorry I wasn't on when you PMed. My dad and I went to see ROTK, so I wasn't able to post. Anyway, whenever you want to start is okay with me.

Good. Because I made the thread.

Alright. I just posted and I'm inching to fight. I just hope there are some judges online.

Me, and Zero

That's good. Then the fight shall begin! *Sound of ominous thunder*

And I don't remember your character Chedder... Could you refresh my memory, or say what page Bio is on?

It's on the first page. He edited his first post to put it on.

What's Acrane arts? (I don't want him making up random spells halfway in the battle...)

PM him. I don't know either. If he pulls something uber big, just call a foul for lack of information on huge spells, or something.

Don't worry. I won't start using huge, appocolyptic spells out of the blue. I'm not going any higher than meteors, and probably not that high.

Heh. Let's see how creative you can get... I assume you're sticking with the D&D PHB here?

OOC: Well, DS *did* defeat a shadow fighter/mage without the use of his eyes...

Don't worry, there's an odd number of people... You could be the final boss of sorts.

Or, we kick Tor out (For reasons of not being here)

Umm, no, not a final boss. He will fihgt someone along the way, but being odd doesn't make you the automatic finalist to fight in the tourney. We'll pit him against someone once the first round is over.

Possibly IHMN's idea might work. Tor hasn't posted anything about not being here and just plain hasn't posted...

Let's put Tor in a reserve category for later, but yes, his partner should fight LunaticChaos now. Saves time.

His partner is/was me I might add... Everyone else has started, expect us two, due to him

Ah, then axe him and kill the shadowgod.

I would like to join the tournament, having been shown it by dragonglove.

Here is my character:

Name:Mastronus
Race: Half fiend/ half elf
Looks: Liike a normal elf, except for completly red eyes ( no whites) that flare when he is angry. That and fangs are the only thing that mark his demonic heritage. He has long black hair and wairs a suit of brilliantly white half plate armor, and a long black cape.
Weapons:two demonic longswords, that drain the very life force of thier victims.
He also has two bracers that make his arms move at lighting speed, futher increasing his deadlyness with the swords. He also has boots of speed which have the same affect as his bracers, only it concerns his movement speed.
Fighting style. Mastronus prefers to meet his enemy face to face, relying on his brilliant sword play and supernatural toughness to help him defeat any enemy.
Personality: Mastronus is cold, calculating evil. He will take any advantage to help him win, and his only goal in his sure to be long life is to rule over as many people as he can.
Items: just his weapons and an amulet that lets him shoot fireballs 3 times a day
Skills: Dark vision, inate darkness spells.

I don't care who i fight, but i am new to this.

You guys just need to PM each other about the arena, then you can start any time.

What's wrong with right now? I say you two start it up ASAP. Just PM about the playing field and start it up.

That's what I said.

We got 11 people, I'm the odd man out...

After these rounds, there will be 5 on side A, 5 on Side B... Putting me in evens one side out, but then the other side has an odd number of people...

Well if Tor EVER returned he would even it out, but he's gone, so we can hope for another new entry to balance the whole thing, or we'll need to figure out a way to balance it otherwise.

I could enter myself again as normal Dark Schneider or Rand Al'Thor...

Simple way is to just bump up 1 person (Who I would choose at random) up one round for the 5 person side.

The easiest way would to have IHMN, who is the only person without a battling opponent, because, unless Tor has just posted before I have, he is hereby out of the tournament. Anyways, it would be easier for him to choose if he wants to move to Side A or Side B. Then we would randomly pick the people who face each other, and the next odd man out would automatically move up a round.

Speaking of sides, do we have a tourny bracket, or is it just random to random...?

Random to random.

Winners go to A, losers go to B

bring it lunatic chaos

Sorry. Dragonglove has thoroughly smote me.

We have set judges, and don't double post...

Oh yah! The RP forum has over 10000 posts now! YAHOO! *ahem* Not that I care...

And around 10% were because of yours truly...

Yay for the forums! All right guys, Now we have to keep going for a 100,000. Then a million.

who am I fighting?

[Edit]
Thanks Dante, and IHMN we are up and running now

Hey, I have a question. I'm in the B Bracket, so who do I fight next?

Well, I randomized it (Had to re do some times to get Raiden and Forever together...)

A
Raiden vs. Forever
IHMN vs. Dante

B
Chedder vs. Tor
Biran vs. Gato

Leftovers
Dragon(A) vs. MC43(B) (Winner is bumped up 1 win in their bracket)
