@Fallenreaper Hopefully Dervy's master gives him a sock today and I can get on non-laggy Skype! I'll definitely try to get to it ASAP.

@Dervish

If you rather, I can put the information on a PM shortly if that's easier? That's no problem if it helps.

Yep. If you fought someone like me with a more reserved wearing down play-style your characters would be lucky to reach five feet from my own if they disregarded range defence completely. There's a reason why projectiles rule battles.

Hell, you'd come unstuck the moment you ran into someone slightly faster than your character with a bag of rocks.

@MelonHead

Point I was making, in the arena you have the option of choosing your battles. Not an option really in story rp which I feel the point was discarded a bit, but meh, oh well.

I think my contingency is currently to just move fast and be hard to hit, heh. But it feels like giving her something to at least protect the torso area from quick ranged weapons wouldn't be too much.

@Fallenreaper For sure, on the subject of fun. Actually one of the reasons I've been hesitant to join the arena is I wondered if I might not be competitive enough. Since I'm mostly interested in just writing fun conflicts and not overly concerned with W/L.

@Luminosity

I'm the same way really, though I admit to coming off as frustrated when I don't understand something or having issues determining the damage when stuff hits. I'm still pretty new as well as rusty from what I did manage to learn with an ex-vet in the arena. So, I wouldn't be concern with competitiveness unless you're fighting ranked battles or tourneys, though that's my opinion and anyone can likely disagree with it.

Actually, the last thing anyone has ever done in the entire of history is completely disregard ranged weaponry, you can choose to if you want to die a terrible death, but having a contingency for a ranged weapon is perfectly reasonable. You're right in that having a way of fighting absolutely everything would be unrealistic and fighting through difficult situations is a fun learning experience, but you're already going to be facing tonnes of different types of weapons with different reach, armour piercing, ease of use, perhaps even types of magic. The last thing you want to do is come undone the moment you fight a ranged opponent.

@MelonHead

Then I already, technically fucked up with Trixi and Iron as I don't think either actually have defenses for range weapons hun.

@DearTrickster: Remind me to send you sleeping pills to slip into Dervish's drinks at night... he's getting scary.

@Dervish: By the way hun, there's some Skype business over something I wanted to change for Vellios' stuff and additions. When you feel like it and have time, please take a peek at it. >_>

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

also @Dblade26 Koren can understand Navi and was talking to him :P

Wait, I did speak to Navi didn't I? IDFK

@Sep

Yes, Koren can understand him. However, Khan hasn't seen Koren chatter with him yet so he wouldn't have known either way. :p Feel free to enlighten the kid by all means.

@MelonHead Thank you, and thanks for taking time to read/help me out.

3 turns sounds good on the stimulant. For the sword... would shortening it help? I hadn't considered the issue of having difficulty drawing it, since I don't think she'll have cause to put it away mid-fight once it's out. She'd use her free hand for her knives and stuff. I feel like she's kinda vulnerable to ranged stuff regardless of what weapon she uses, I figured that would be more of an armor thing. Could you elaborate? Thought about adding something for her to wear over her torso, but I'm not really familiar with what kind of armor would be able to stop or reduce damage from arrows or similar without slowing her down much.

Again though, thank you reading and giving me feedback, I appreciate it :)

@Luminosity

Careful you don't get stuck in that age old trap of trying to cover too much, not everything should or have to be accounted for in the arena. Namely as you can chose your opponent and determine if they are good fit with their equipment, items and other aspects before you take them on. After all, most arena battles are about the fun rather than winning or being able to take on anything. Many people forget this in the end when it comes to the competition aspect since none of the fight results are plotting out and no one wants their PC to die/lose miserably.

I'm keeping an eye on all of you...

*goes back to grading exams / playing Fire Emblem: Fates - Conquest*

@Dedonus

I walked the line! And did it well, damn it!

Do I really have to police this place...

@Dedonus

I corrected his thoughts. Though it was likely because I didn't word it right or was too vague on the subject, my bad and sorry Dedonus.

Eva "Not sure I follow."

You aren't proposing what I think you are. Are you? I mean I haven't confirmed Eva's interest in such matters. Right now that's a little off the table. Until I figure out how that will go down.

@VATROU

I'm just stating my mind isn't clean either, with everything I do with my PCs though torture and worse, I'm pretty sure it's a rat's nest in there to put it politely. Also Rach doesn't swing that way. Some of my other PCs do, but she doesn't.

I was merely stating her extra-curricular activities. Never once did I hint toward her and Eva getting together because there was no . To make that clear, merely stated what she tends to come off as which is true, you call someone who often does one night stands with various people and no deep emotional attachment a slut. At least most people I know do. However, with her present condition and fact she will be busy alters that because she's got another outlet for her need for rough activity to spend energy (in a different form of course).

If I offended anyone, I'm sorry for it btw. And I go WAY, WAY too much depth into my PCs at times...
