Boxing Arena RP

Right. Before we start I know this is a complete and utter longshot.

I am looking for someone to do a boxing match with. I have had this itch for a while and it would be nice to go back to some basic fighting RP. I have always done fight RPs more for story than for victory, so figured I would try something a little more competitive.

After putting his phone down It seemed as if everything was going to go back to being boring and dull in the café. Ito scanned his eyes over the landscape, and nothing caught his attention. That was until he saw Beau react to the stain on his shirt. It was a beautiful shirt. Shame it got ruined really. Ito expected Beau to storm off in a hurry to go get changed.

Except something entirely different began to unfold. Instead of walking away, Beau took off his shirt leaving himself topless. From the waist upwards Beau DeRose was showing nothing but bare skin. Ito had to take a moment to shake his head, just to make sure that he wasn't in any way dreaming. The shaking confirmed what he already knew: This wasn't a dream. Not in the slightest. While it was very similar to the dreams he did have Beau, this was the real deal.

At that point in time, Ito was no longer in control of his body. He could feel his heartbeat increasing, those breaths of his turning into slightly faster pants. And it was only going to get worse as Beau began to walking along towards him. Ito was crushing so hard now that it was actually rather shocking that he hadn't tried to teleport away. His Adams apple became stiff as Beau made the final steps forward, swallowing becoming rather difficult as Beau closed in.

And then Beau leaned in and kissed his cheek. The sudden action caused his heart to stop for a second ; time itself seems to slow down. A moment later everything went back to normal and all of the sudden his heart was racing at a thousand beats per minute. That sensation of euphoria rushed through his body like a pulsating wave as the males lips brushed his skin. Ito had truly began to lose control of his body as he gave in to certain bodily urges, those urges you get when you are really attracted to someone. Ito wanted to do something. His mind racing a million miles an hour with thoughts. Part of him wanted to do unspeakable things: the kind of things that were only in his dreams. Other parts of him wanted to be all romantic and tender, pulling the blonde into a deep kiss. While the rest of him was just panicking over what to say.

He was crushing. Crushing like mad. In all of his time here at the academy he had never been able to get this close to Beau. He had always stayed on the outside. Afraid that Beau would want to stay away from him if he knew the truth. Raising his arm to hide the developing blush that was appearing on his cheeks, Ito looked down, scooping his phone with his free arm to see if he had any messages: Nothing. There was no escape. He was going to have to say something.

"Hello… Beau. Looking beautiful… I mean looking good. You look good. How are you?" Smooth Ito. Really smooth. Way to give it all away in the first sentence. He took a sip of his drink once more, trying not to give away just how nervous he was right now. Teleporting away would be a preferable escape right now. It was a shame he didn't have time travel powers.

When Royalty Collides

Defo agree with loving Hayley. So I am in too. Going to look to make a Male based around Japanese culture. Something like a Crown Prince.

Should get a character up by Friday :)

So here Ito was, taking slow and steady sips from his large coffee cup, taking that moment to enjoy the sensation of the hot liquid going down his throat. He had missed the way the coffee from this place tasted. There was something about it that made it quite spectacular compared to the coffee back home. Nothing even came close to the combination of flavours and aromas that he got here. If he could, he would just live in the cafe forever. Ito had always found it quite hilarious and somewhat uncanny at how he was able to just blend into the background of the world and have no one notice him. For his job as a messenger it was an extremely handy talent to have. Plus it allowed him to spy on people at the same time. At the same time it was also rather isolating at times. The lack of interaction made it quite difficult to make friends at times. Sometimes it was blessing, but other times it felt like a true curse. Here he was after all, sitting in a cafe full of people and no one acknowledges your existence. Still. Ito was used to it.

And it wasn't like his time was wasted. He had observed the goings on in the cafe, and all the emotions that were running high. He watched as Dallas threw his pastry at Beau; for reasons unknown. Ito couldn’t help but notice Beau, who was looking mighty fine as per usual. There were very few people who Ito would consider changing his sexual orientation for, but Beau was definitely one of them. Oh the things he would do with him… Ito placed his coffee on the table as he began to stare at Beau, losing his mind as his eyes continued to observe the males movements.

Shaking his head he moved his focus away from Beau. He knew how dangerous it was to stare at and then consequently begin to crush on Beau. He had gone through a similar phase last year and while he was fairly sure Beau hadn’t noticed his crushing last year, A few others had noticed though, and Ito knew the value of the information. He was half expecting someone to blackmail him into getting something done. But last year he was fairly safe

Ito began to wonder what had wound Dallas up so much. There had to be something big to get him worked up this much. He knew Dallas had a bit of a short temper at times, and could always be on the flair of the dramatic. But this was extreme even for him. Ito couldn’t tell if he was playing, or if there really was some kind of unbridled rage there. Still, it was enough to cause him to throw a pastry at the stunning Beau. After a few moments Ito began to realise that he was starting to stare at Dallas. Ito shifted his eyes and picked up his coffee cup, taking a sip before placing it back down and pulling out his phone.
He flicked through his contacts, noticing that while had practically the entire campus on his contact list, the number of conversations that he had was significantly lower. Flicking through his convos he finally picked someone to message. He decided to message Dana.

DANA
”Hey Dana, Got onto campus this morning. Had to get my coffee. What you doing later? Fancy getting your face remodelled at the gym? xD

He placed his phone down with a smirk. He loved calling out Dana and winding her up. Even if he rarely was able to get the upper hand on the daughter of war, and most matches ended up with at least one bruise in the morning. Taking another sip of his coffee he casually ran his finger around the rim of his cup, waiting to see what would happen next.

Ito would have joined the party sooner, if he didn’t arrive to the campus late. Thankfully he wouldn’t get a slap around the back of the head as he was afterall on Campus business. Being a messenger had its benefits, like being able to arrive late, and perhaps skipping the annoying first day festivities. He had been here long enough to know that everyone always went off the rails on the first night and that the true ‘first’ day didn’t start til the day after.

Lazing around on the bed Ito had to convince himself to get up, this was too early in the morning for someone who didn’t get into bed until three in the morning. Like it or not he did have things to do today. Rising out of bed he began to get dressed, putting on a black and grey jumper and black jeans. He couldn’t be arsed to walk to the bathroom so he simply closed his eyes, felt a small rush of magical energy rush past his hair and opened his eyes again. And there he was, in the bathroom in front of the sink, toothbrush in his hand.

He carried on the routine, teeth brushed, teleport to the kitchen to make food and then teleport to the sink when he was done. Walking was for chumps afterall. He could teleport where he wanted as well as go between every dimension imaginable without limits. Sure he didn’t have super muscles, or was a child of war, but he made do. With his morning routine now done, he took a moment to look around the dorm. It was clearly made for two but so far no one was in the second bedroom. Maybe someone would appear soon enough. If not he could always turn the spare room into a workshop or something like that.

Now that he was ready to face the outside world, Ito needed a pick me up. There was no coffee in the dorm so it seemed like he had to go get some. No bother, it would take only a minute. Closing his eyes once more he would disappear and reappear right at the front of the queue at the Apollo Cafe. Queues were for losers after all. He was fairly sure he could hear some mumbles of annoyance from behind, but he didn’t care.

He quickly placed his order; a Caramel Latte Macchiato with extra cream and chocolate sprinkles in the largest possible coffee container possible. It was his first day. He could splash out. Once he received his drink he was getting ready to go home when he noticed the number of people hanging around. He noticed alot of them from the previous year, but no one stuck out as a person he would hang around with. He had a very mutual relationship with people around here, sometimes he helped them and other times he hindered them. Other times it was for business other times it was for his own amusement. It couldn’t hurt to hang around a bit on the sides, observer and see if he could garnish any useful information. Picking up his drink he took a seat at a table or two away form the groups of people gathering, taking a moment to focus on his drink and enjoy the taste before he began survilaling the scene. It was only his first day and detective Ito was out to play.

"Calling all the messengers (Can you hear it?)" — Lecrae - Messengers

---

_Appearance

Ito is a fairly lithe, scrawny male standing at just under 5ft 6Inches. He has black hair that is mid length, but never goes over his eyes. He never has a set style and regularly changes his hairstyle on a whim. Along with his dark hair he also dark, chocolate brown eyes. The same can be said about his attire too. He wears a large variety of clothes, all from different styles. He feels happy and content no matter what he is wearing, as long as he isn’t naked.

_Personality

Be careful when you talk to Ito, because you will never quite know which side he is on. He is always looking for amusement, usually at other people’s expense, but he normally isn’t malicious in his joking. Given his ‘neutral’ standing with people he tends to blend into any group of people, though is never really ‘friends’ with them. This causes Ito to become somewhat of a loner, moving from group to group to deliver messages. Given his talkative nature he is rather charismatic, but not so much charming. He has no issue with using whatever is at his disposal to get an advantage, even if it would inconvenience someone or endanger them. He is prone to fits of anger like most people, but when you cross onto his bad side, he will focus on doing everything he can to make your life a misery.

_History

LIke most Demi-gods, Ito grew up to a single parent. In this case it was his mother. Being born in Kyoto on the cusp of the millennium, Ito got to watch the advent of modern communication technology truly take over old fashioned methods. Which when your father was heralded as the messenger of the gods, seemed quite ironic. Still, Growing up Ito took a great interest in writing and politics, even joining the model UN at his school. It seemed that Ito was lined up for a job in the diplomatic arts. That was until he began to hang around with his father. His mother forbade Hermes to speak to Ito while he was young, but on the advent of his 13th birthday, everything was revealed to him.

Discovering that you are a demi-god suddenly makes negotiations obsolete. Why sit and talk, when you can pound your fists on the table and remind mortals that you are a demi-god and you want what you demanded. It seemed as if the power was going to go to Ito’s head. So Hermes intervened and took him away for a while to help Ito discover his sense of responsibility. Hermes showed Ito just how important messengers were, and the roles they had to play. He also opened Ito’s eyes to his other duties, like guiding people to the underworld, a task that was never to be taken lightly. There was also the ethics of his work that Ito needed to learn. There were many times where Hermes had tricked the gods to protect mortals. Sometimes it was for impish fun, but other times there were good reasons to.

While the talk helped centre Ito and stop him from becoming a brat, Ito was still struggling to get along with Mortals now. In an attempt to combat this and to help make him a model demi-god, Olympus Academy was deemed the only logical option. High School is afterall the ultimate political game.

_{Godly Parent}

Hermes - Messenger of the Gods, God of Trade, Wealth, Luck, Theives, Eloquence. Guide to the underworld.

_{Relationship With Godly Parent}

Ito has a rather cordial relationship with his father. They meet and talk often and Hermes is currently mentoring Ito into becoming a model messenger. Someone to take his place should the unthinkable happen. They aren’t as close as Ito would like however, and the relationship is more student-teacher than son and father.

_{Demigod Abilities}

Teleportation- Ito has the ability to transfer his physical being to another location on the mortal plain. There are certain methods that can be employed to make an area impossible for him to teleport to, mostly magical wards.
Lock Picking- Ito can defeat mechanical locks simply by touching them with his fingers. Digital locks, keypads and the like are harder, and require him to concentrate before defeating them. Cyber locks (i.e. Passwords and computers) can’t be affected by his power currently.
Persuasion- When he needs to Ito can use his words to help persuade people to do what he wants. Mortals can hardly resist it. Gods are completely immune. Demi-gods is more hit and miss and depends heavily on the their willpower.
Invention- Ito is gifted with the knack to be able to come up with a variety of gadgets and tools for any situation. It is important to note that he doesn’t just have them appear out of thin air, he has to go out and create them, though his godpowers most certainly do help speed up the process.

The First Magical Incursion

I've been jumping about the map the past few weeks and I forgot to back up my work so I could complete it on the go. Finishing up now!
So sorry guys!

@Carbonatter

It's fine. A lot of people in the RP have been faced with personal issues the past month or so, so the speed has dropped down, just glad to have ya back. Post when you can and we can move on from there.

The First Magical Incursion

Hey everyone just checking to see how you are all getting on, I know it all of you are in the discord. If you are getting stuck and need help, please feel free to drop us a PM :)

The First Magical Incursion

Okay so seeing as this is open, I think I might be interested in writing up a character for this, even though it's a lot larger population than my usual.
But I'm kinda new to the actual community here on RPG so I do have a couple questions
<Snipped quote>
I have absolutely no idea what a faceclaim is and I'm not sure I'm getting any actual idea of it from trying to just search the term on the forum.
Also I'm really unaccustomed to the whole idea of just using an image for a character, instead of a written appearance. After the first several look arounds though I'm starting to very quickly realize that they are by far the norm here in most threads I've looked into, but I have no idea what the right way to go about getting a pic like that is or where to even begin searching for something. I would love if someone could point me in the right direction regarding that.

@Ginnungagap

Welcome to the thread and welcome to the community! A faceclaim is just a fancy way of saying that I use pictures of person x to represent character y. If ypy feel more comfortable writing out a apperance rather than using a picture then go ahead! Nothing wrong with that at all. Some people prefer pictires, others prefer words.
