This is a skirmish between two teams whose goal is finding an old Tome of power within The Fortress of Drakonia. This battle is a prelude to the next installment of Arena Multiverse. Note events here will help shape the future story line now in the works. This is an open challenge for another opposing team.

The Flavor/theme for this match is mid tier powered sword fighting. All combatants main form of attack or fighting should be melee sword related. (though a sword my not be your only weapon, but should be main.)

Battleground:

Name: The Fortress of Drakonia

Size: Measuring by the widest point, the Castle has a:

Length of 750 feet or 250 yards

Width: 320 feet or 106.667 yards

Properties: The Courtyard and open areas of the castle are subject to fierce and powerful gale force storms with wind speeds up to 72 mph, roughly the strength of a tornado. Due to this, flying is very difficult but not impossible, though ranged combat that relies on physical objects will suffer accuracy at long ranges. Air magic or powers are also amplified when outside. (by a degree of one prep, but only if there is at least one prep involved, so non prepped attacks still count as not having preps.)

Those who do falloff the edge are considered disqualified from combat, as far enough below the castle proper (about 100 feet) subjects vanish completely. Note that pieces of the castle that have broken off will continue to float under their own power. The narrow halls of the castle themselves are filled with ancient booby traps, spiked pits, falling ceiling blocks of stone, or the classic hidden darts from the wall to even magical dragon statues that breath fire when one walks before them. Most rooms are 10 by 10, with hallways being 5 feet wide to round inter section chambers that can be as wide as 20 feet in diameter.

Also note that the dungeons have fallen away over the years, and one must traverse the underbelly of this castle by moving from floating rock to floating rock. The winds are no less forgiving here. Still, these lower depths once held the magical armory of the castle garrison, and fallen objects of no sentience tend to float up into the dungeons if they have fallen off.

Player Capacity: Up to 4v4 or Free-For-All

Description :

Flavor Text: Built by an ancient people long ago, no one remembers who they were or why they constructed this fortress. Let along why they gifted it the power of flight. The wise men and scholars of these lost civilization however were grand diviners, and their ancient text, so it is told, hold the secrets of the future across many universes. What other powers lie hidden within the fortresses libraries?

Just so it's clear, my swordswoman will not be using her guns in this fight, since it's a swords-only thing.

Kool, I will also not be using my pistols.

Currently it should be. But if either of them can't join in, it will remain open to any willing.

I'm going to finish up my character sheet today if at all possible. It could happen before lunch unless I get stuck on certain powers.

Melon, post up your update to just confirm your still doing this. Else the position opens up!

I wonder how Itsuki and Tordor would get along. What do you think DJ?

It's highly likely he didn't see this, as I only saw it through luck.

@GreivousKhan She'd probably be very puzzled at how old-fashioned he is.

Considering Itsuki comes from a cyberpunk Tokyo... XD

I read Tordor and will move down to Itsuki, then go to my own sheet once I get a feel for a fair power level. Tordor not wanting to harm girls may be detrimental if it ends up him versus me.

Well, he actually comes from an established setting called the Iron Kingdoms. Which is basically a Full Metal Fantasy world. But ya, should make for some interesting dynamics. Especially considering his dialect/slang is similar to old british cockney.

She's almost completely Japanese, though her understanding of the English language comes from translator implants in her ears, and TV dramas.
Itsuki has a thing for that Bendybick Cucumberpatch person

I'm thinking I should add a simple spell for comprehending and speaking in different languages.

One of the Lore canon things I want to make for the multiverse is a dynamic and advanced system that works throughout all the multiverse first established by the Angar-Ryalln Empire. That basically allows all sentient creatures to communicate regardless of their means of speech. Though accents still bleed through regardless.

I just thought of a new quirk to my character. Although the body remains the same, there could be twelve souls stored in the sword that can inhabit it. This is represented by her body being the executioner, the sword being the judge, and the 12 souls being the jury. The souls will be able to recharge themselves after being defeated and hiding back in the sword. However, they can't recharge in a single battle. A new soul could only enter her body if the sword is stabbed into the corpse, so as long as you can avoid that she won't keep coming back for you.

So the what your saying is, if the Reapers win, theirs a huge soul buffet for the waiting! >=D

Also on another topic, I think Souls would replenish naturally even if devoured and destroyed elsewhere in the multiverse. :K

The swords hiding within the sword are immune to soul stealing, as is the sword itself. However, they can still be drained of energy and turn dormant until they can recharge, so this would lead to a lot of energy to steal. The souls can be male or female even though the body is female. Wonder how that would factor in to his gentlemanly antics?

Well, souls are already dead.

So he'd treat them both to equal destruction, then?

Anyways, I have it back where the girl's body does still have her original soul mostly in charge, but other jury members can also be put into her body to gain control if she gets herself killed for the time being or they could add on abilities. The body isn't undead, being completely alive again whenever she's revived.
