Screw it, I'm done... It's like a stupid rubix cube...

This...will hopefully help some.











@nitemare shape I'm totally not sorry by the way. Also at the Movie Theater now, about to see Deadpool. So excited! Also I plan to give Fallen more lore soon so she has that big thing to look forward to.
@Dervish That's why you have moi to CO-GM. Between the two of us, 11 peeps should be fine! :D
Looks in, looks around at what's been going on....backs away slowly.

And I just finished doing the reviews for 11 characters and will have those delivered in a couple days. Given that that's already a boatload of people and nobody had a sheet with glaring issues or concerns, I'm totally okay with dropping the reviews tomorrow if you guys want me to. I'll still take any more applications tomorrow, but as stands, we have a pretty full house.
@Fallenreaper
I forget names easily. Sigurd, Guzman, Harold, Fred. Same guy to me!
But enough of that. Let's groove.
@Fallenreaper
1. You may have noticed there are no normal humans in this tournament. They are the superhumans I am referring to, since you know, Hulk can tear a continent in half.
2. Sure back kicks can be done differently, but I'm sure you can divine that Gonad's involves what I described. That's the whole hamburger right there.
3. Just go ahead and fight, I won't call you a cheater. You could scan over every single one of my past matches and see that I'm never the first to complain or argue. I don't see a mess, just a spinning back kick that couldn't be simpler. If there us a contention, resolve it I.C'ly. Take for example when Sigurd tried to chest bump Gonad backwards. Instead of telling DJ that such a thing was not possible up front, I implied it through Gonad's resistance of the move.
4. Whether he stopped or kept walking, it is true I did not specify. In such a case, you may go ahead and assume he'd keep in walking all the way to the Bahamas. That kick is still coming and it is coming from close range in the manner I described.
5. It is possible to avoid getting hit by a stray cat strapped to a jetpack at the last second, but that isn't easy if you don't see it coming. Trixi can certainly avoid the kick, but she'd need a good reason to do so.
But let's just try to wing it, huh? Stay I.C for a while and let the magic happen. A good fight is spontaneous with interruptions far and few between. You'll find I'm very reasonable. I don't like lots of I.C stuff.

1. Gonad's strength isn't really quantifiable. He's as strong as an unarmed man needs to be to fight on even ground with similarly skilled armed and armored opponents. Generally though, his blows can kill normal humans if delivered to the head and can put superhumans out of commission. He is stronger than any character that uses a weapon, as a point of fairness given his very low durability and combat range. Same case with speed. That doesn't mean he's too fast to hit or too strong to beat. It just means that he is a power oriented martial artist capable of fighting with knights and Vikings and shit.
2. Gonad's build is unusually dense and broad as well as tall, and his body\arm length proportions are scaled up from the reach of MMA fighter Jon Jones, so he has excellent reach for his height. Still far less than anybody with a sword, which is one of his biggest weaknesses.
3. He did not step forwards, it was not necessary. I made no mention of him doing that, and he did exactly as I said he did. Naturally he went through the motions required to launch a back kick, but I don't waste time going on about all of the confusing body mechanics. All those silly descriptions of pivots and multiple joints and diagonal clockwises are entirely moot imo. A straight punch is a straight punch, a roundhouse is a roundhouse, a spinning back kick is a spinning back kick. If I plan to do some wacky stiff-body kick that involves unlikely physics, I'll make a mention of it. Otherwise, it is just what the tin says. Trixi is however close she moved to Gonad in the first place, I never had him move after he stopped to prepare the punch. I'd assume they are pretty close together, and that's as much an answer as you can expect to get from me.
I write like I'm telling a story, and as you have likely guessed I do not deal in specifics. Feel free to interpret things how you want, but when I describe something, I mean exactly what I describe. If you say she is close enough to kick Gonad in the back of the knee, then I'll take your word for it. Doesn't mean it will work, but I'll assume your character has been the physical requirements to attempt such a thing. The following image neatly sums up my roleplay style.
He strode quickly towards Trixi, more a powerwalk than anything. His arms would remain loose at his sides, but were he to get within the woman's reach he'd then cock back his left fist as if he were going to slug her right in the gobhole. It could scarcely be more straightforward, something that was easily avoided and easily countered? Perhaps, but of all people Gonad knew the true power of simplicity.
Whether or not she is moving, Gonad has great aim and is intending to give her the goods based upon wherever the heck she is. And like I described, Gonad is expecting Trixi to expect a counter attack, hence the fake backfist. There is something to be said for when one anticipates and plans for a move only to encounter something entirely different. When someone throws a surprise attack at you, you don't see it coming in slow motion. At any rate, if things are still confusing, here is a little video with a kick similar to Gonad's. Notice how flexible and normal the stance is and how the kick still has obvious power even with Uriah not going through the full motions.
That was longer than I initially suspected..
