All right, everybody! First, I'd like to provide everyone with the map of the tournament arena if they haven't seen it already.



Each team obviously starts in one of the two opposite ends, with their flags starting position being inside one of the small open walled area. The grey dots are the pillars, lined up from shortest to tallest so that athletic participants can use them to gain height advantage and clear the center diving wall if they're daring enough. The dark green patches are areas of thick vegetation, a few rows of light blocking trees interspersed with long grass in order to facilitate stealth, ambushes, and anything else you could think to do with a bunch of plants.

Now he have our teams! Fighting for St. Laurel's School of Academic Excellence:

Andreim/Lise/Samoth
Katherine/Cassius/William

Representing Mephisto's School for the Wickedly Inclined:

Rurik/Bak/Thobias
Vittorio/Yuuto/Christine

And finally, our good friends The Vigilantes:

Wolf/Naseraph/Michael
Andras/Brutus/Aram

Doing a random draw at randomresult.com/tournament.php spit this out at me:

Group #1
competitor #1: Andreim/Lise/Samoth
competitor #2: Afterburner

Group #2
competitor #1: Rurik/Bak/Thobias
competitor #2: Andras/Brutus/Aram

Group #3
competitor #1: Katherine/Cassius/William
competitor #2: Vittorio/Yuuto/Christine

Group #4
competitor #1: Wolf/Naseraph/Michael
competitor #2: Burner

If anyone has any objections to where they were placed feel free to talk to me about it so we can work something out.

You might be wondering about who "Burner" and "Afterburner" are. Due to the unfortunate loss of a player we don't have the manpower to fill those slots, so they are essentially free wins against a group of NPCs of your choice. Depending on what happens in the next couple of days we may have enough characters to fill out a third Mephisto's team, but right now I think this is the best way to move forward. If anyone wants to throw character that aren't participating together to make one of the burner teams into a real one I'm also open to that.

Finally, I'd like to pitch something: Would you like to go on the assumption that this bracket is for the second round, and that every team in it won their first match already? You don't have to write out a whole fight with some scrub NPCs if you don't want to, I just think that it would make the world feel a little bigger.

Hey, I know there was no interest check around, but the status of the game seems to be "apply" and i've seen you mention that there has been a loss of players recently - are you possibly looking for people to fill in for those who went missing? I've read the IC and about the setting and it's pretty interesting for me.

So far as I'm concerned a game is always open so long as the Apply sign is green. Feel free to post a character and hop into the Discord at the bottom of the zeroth post.

The RP is still open to new players, if you are worried about the pages currently written there may be like a short recap in which people can learn of what has happened in the story so far.

Since Potatoe has decided to drop out due to real life concerns we're going to have to change the teams up a little bit.

@Hammerman, would you like Christine to stay with her current team or would you like her to come back to team Rurik and pretend that was always the case? Also, would you like control over Katherine?

I think I'd like Christine to go back with Rurik. And I'm not confident enough with myself to control Katherine.

Name: Luigi Vile
Nicknames: Cogboy, Metal Man,

Age: 17

Grade:Mephisto's School for the Wickedly Inclined , 3rd year.

Biography:
Luigi Vile is a strange individual, growing up in part of a rural countryside far from Rhea for a majority of his life. However, when he was 14, a group of bandits numbering 7 entered into his home town, and nearly leveled all of it. For while everyone has powers, their skills with their powers, and their effectiveness varies, and the 7 dark souls who wandered into Luigi's life were vicious and destructive. Luigi lost his brother, and his mother in the attack. His father and hum survived due to being trapped under a large amount of rubble during the initial attack, and were left for dead. After the bandits had taken what they were looking for, what that being Luigi has never been able to figure out for the life of him, they simply left like they came, upon the winds of fate.

After the attack, the survivors banded together. With their homes in ruins, and winter coming soon, they knew they had to get moving. The best bet was Rhea, a place where such bandits could never harm them again, or take away their loved ones. Not without the young heroes, who were testing themselves in the tournaments held at Rhea, coming down upon them to destroy them. Luigi helped those who were left, turning broken homes and shattered steel into vehicles able to carry those who were left towards Rhea, great metal horses to pull wagons and sleds. It took a few months, and at the start of winter, they arrived at Rhea. The refugees were quickly taken in, and given places to stay. Luigi and his father found a place within Rhea, his father working as a blacksmith as Luigi began schooling there, having found a place to learn in Mephisto's, as due to the loss of most of their valuables in the raid, they arrived poor and not well off.

Luigi initially was placed back, two years behind what his age would suggest he should be at due to him being home schooled. However, thanks to his exceptional intellect, and knack for learning, Luigi impressed those who looked down upon him by blazing his way back to his correct grade. Over the three years, he has been a diligent student of Mephisto's, and a pain for many of the teachers there. The reason he's a pain? He enjoys agreeing to do homework for other students in exchange for metal, baubles and other pieces of what appears to be junk. In reality, he utilizes these bits and pieces to create his new augments, working the metal at his father's forge, smeltery and kiln when his father is not utilizing it.

"By whatever means be needed, I will become strong enough so what happened those years ago will never happen again."- Luigi Vile


Powers

Main Power: Child of Mars


To war is human, and to destroy is the nature of man. While all powers are somehow offensive based, all come with flaws. Either a shoddy defense leaves someone open to long range attacks, or they lack the ability to strike at distant foes, the power rendered them nigh immobile or maybe even were self destructive and only could be used as a last resort. In old times, when the war raged against the darkness those who stood against it required arms and armor of quality that it could compete with the powers they had been given. To cover their weaknesses, and bolster their strengths. That is where the likes of Luigi would come into play. Luigi's main power, Child of Ares has given Luigi the strangest ability to create marvels of war and destruction, weapons unlike anything the world has seen before. From swords encased in crackling energy, to talismans and watches able to project powerful force fields, to ranged weapons able to harness light itself to attack its targets, Luigi creates weapons made to kill, destroy and obliterate. He is even able to, with enough resources, create planes and tanks of incredible power, spreading war to a grand scale.

However, he cannot create these things out of thin air. He requires the resources to actually be able to make them, and sometimes will requires special components to create truly powerful items, such as components from monsters or dangerous to gather ingredients. This could be the acid that drips from the maw of a great devourer to craft a powerful energy source for a war machine, the chitin of a siege beetle to create powerful armor, and so on.




Secondary Power: Built to last!


While wielding something he has created, Luigi is able to push it to its absolute limits. They are able to function under circumstances that should normally disable them, such as being in an anti-magic field, or having part of them broken. To render one of Luigi's items unusable in his hands, they'd need to be nearly entirely destroyed. This bonus applies to his augmetics. [See Secondary Power: Flesh is Weak for more details on the augmentics]. However, normally after such intense use, whatever tool he had been pushing normally falls apart after a battle's end.

Secondary Power: Flesh is Weak.


Luigi has slowly, but surely been replacing his body with magi-tech cybernetics. His limbs, and most of his torso has been reinforced with steel and magic making him far more harty and durable than the average man, much more physically powerful, but much heavier. Chemical weapons such as toxins and nerve agents are less effective, however he has opened himself up to a weakness to electricity and magnetism. He is constantly replacing more and more of himself, adding in things such as new limbs or weapons mounted to his very body, as he already has several tendrils that end in tools such as clamps, and drills. His flesh willing parts and fuses to these augments, and his body accepts them as new parts of him. He need not fear his body self destructing due to rejecting these new enhancements.

Secondary Power: Machine Mind


A sub-power of Child of Mars, Luigi is, if given enough time able to reverse engineer nigh anything if he is able to study the item, such as watching it utilized in combat. This ability does not allow Luigi to replicate items made purely from magical energies, such as light constructs or blades of pure magic, but most else is on the table given enough time. Of course, he has to be able to study them, so in the midst of battle this can be difficult...but not impossible.

@Dezuel@Bartimaeus@Crowvette

These are your opponents:







You've seen enough to get a feel for how the three of them fight. Eulogy will hang back, summoning a legion of ghosts to defend their flag with her horn while Reverie will usually make a beeline for the opposing flag. Misery will support either one depending on the circumstances, usually Reverie until she crossed the halfway mark or until she hears three sharp toots from Eulogy's horn, at which point she turns around to assist Eulogy on defense.

Fighting Reverie is obviously a trap. Once she reaches Gear 3 no one so far has been fast enough to stop her from just taking the flag. The problem is that you have to fight her to stop her from taking the flag anyway.
