MARRIAGE RIGHTS!?
STEM CELLS!?
WORLD HUNGER!?
DEMOCRACY!?

If there's an issue that boils your gravy, KICK ITS ASS!

In this rp, you'll be taking on the roles of superhuman beings, (whether human, mutant, humanoid alien, etc.) who have, through sheer badass or popular vote, won their place in the Filibuster Federation. The Federation is a group of beings made impossibly durable by the powers of Managantamos, The Lord of the Arena. Nobody much cares about him, and he doesn't much care about politics. He just wants to see a good show. In fact, he's been very open about his apathy toward earthling issues. However, when you have a bunch of nigh-indestructible beings running around fighting each other, sometimes the local government will crumble and you'll end up inadvertantly conquering a lot of land.

Now that super fighters are around, a generous collection of nation states have banded together under the Filibuster Federation, those in Managantamos' repetoire who fancy themselves adequate government agents battle for supremacy. Parties form, power is squabbled over, and, most importantly, supremacy is being battled for. 

The Filibuster Federation has a simple constitution under which the government operates:

-Do not use any outlawed holds or maneuvers. No hair-pulling, eye-gouging, no biting, no violence committed by or against the genitals. Any barred holds (whatever you decide those are going to be. I'm not exactly an expert on all the pro-wrestling moves.) will be subject to the count of 5, and the offender will be disqualified from the debate if they don't stop by then.

-No outside interference! If you try to help someone in a match you aren't involved in, the person you helped out will lose!... I mean, unless you're just cheering them on or giving them a weapon or something.

-We put weapons underneath the ring for a reason!... Violence is certainly not one of them...

-What the Ref says goes!

-It's technically not illegal to murder the referee, that just means no one's going to be there to validate either side winning...

-One may challenge another to an "extreme rules" match, wherein the [i]only[/i] thing that matters is who gets the fall points. The previous rules don't matter unless you're being a goody two-shoes.

See any problems with that!? Doubt a pro wrestling federation's ability to effectively provide the masses with safety and prosperity!? THEN GET IN THE RING AND CHANGE IT! Currently, the Federation exists in a state of anarchy. All laws and rights must be decided from the ground up. Illogical extremists on both the side of the heel and the face are highly encouraged. Since this combat is going to be ostensibly much "realer" than real life pro wrestling, just with wrestlers who [i]really are that durable[/i] (and who can be brought back from the dead when they are really killed, in all manner of ways) other martial arts and fighting styles than just the standard burly smacking can come into play, but all will be considered equal and pro wrestling moves in the form of signatures and finishers will be considered "More powerful" by virtue of the notion that the wrestler's energy and personality are channelled through those movements. Like Qi-Blasting, but, y'know, chucking people around.

And remember, the powers of Managantamos transcend space and time: Your characters can be anything from immortalized medieval folk heroes to space conquerors.

I plan on this being a high-casual rp, since that's just my style. This isn't going to be an arena rp in the typical sense, and it's going to be in the casual section rather than the arena simply because it's fundamentally different from an Arena rp: You aren't trying to win, you're trying to create the best fight scene and the best story. Who wins isn't really important, it's really about the how and why and what happens because of it. Get into the interaction and larger-than-life fantasy of Pro Wrestling characters that makes things awesome.
