@ImportantNobody I've become quite interested in Yurzia, actually.

Tell you what, since he's Japanese in nature, how about an old monastery in the forests around Mount Fuji? Sound better?


Yurzia may become part of a team (non canon) of elite bishonen at some point, although in his case he's more feminine so I'm not sure if that really counts.

He's not technically Japanese at all even if obviously inspired by their culture. Him going to the sahara or fuji would be the same to him even if he'd feel more at home near fuji. He could travel to earth at some point as part of the multiverse, although probably not to fight the US army. That would be the main problem in this scenario. He's aggressive and a bit of a jerk sometimes but not a bad guy.

I'll probably create my cool fire user guy if you end up fighting him for this plot or not. He may have other powers as well but fire would be the finishing blow.
@ImportantNobody True. Well I am very flexible, so tell you what, why not you decide the arena? I'll roll with whatever you pick and write that info his backstory instead. ^^


Or I could come with another character. Maybe a cool fire using bounty hunter guy who was tasked with destroying everyone in the area for some reason.
<Snipped quote by ImportantNobody>

I told you it would be a very endangering move. You see it now don't ya? >:3


Seeing him slowly inching forward to touch her sword, it's not exactly like he'd take her off guard...unless this move isn't possible with kendo and she's simply oblivious to other fighting styles. Due to being unranked we can make a few more assumptions.

@ImportantNobody Oh, well, I had an idea: an abandoned town.

See, it's tying in with the backstory I'm writing for him. He's a Delta Force operator, currently post-mission, retreating from insurgents in Egypt. He and his squad make trails into an abandoned township in the Sahara desert, pursued closely by said insurgents, and inadvertently wake up your fire fox guy, who sets all the terrorists ablaze and initiates combat with my guy and his squad.

That's where we'll start, but it'll end with everyone dead, save for your guy.


I wonder what would make firefox go to the sahara desert. If it's canon for your guy it should be canon for mine as well or that would be confusing.
@ImportantNobody Well, IN, if you wanna start up a thread for our unranked fight, I can finish up my guy's sheet and we can start whenever.


Against firefox dude? Where should they fight?
I was bored about three years ago, and joined ImportantNobody's assassin duel thread, where I got to fight two people and found it fun and interesting (I also did pretty well for a complete novice, which helps).


Assassins assassinating assassins? I never knew that was a start to your career.

Such as dodging a bullet

Even though these things have been done in real life by real people


*glares at melonhead

Yes...one would think...one would think.

*continues glaring

I find it funny to see a character that has a host of hand to hand skills. Usually I’ll talk with the person and then we’ll agree to a realistic hand to hand spar. Once that happens usually the player either knows nothing, or very little about the particular combatives their character has.


That's basically me with my sword masters. I'm afraid of overdoing certain moves so I might underdo them instead just to be safe. Unless I can say stuff like, "they did an expert flurry of strikes" and not worry about the details. XD

Death by fire extinguisher


"My trump card! I shall extinguish your fire, cursed fire manipulator!" *bashes him on the head with the fire extinguisher, technically extinguishing his fire as he's knocked unconscious

allow the sword to pierce his body in a less vital spot, and took the swordsman by surprise by placing a hand on his face, setting him alight.


I can't help but feel like a similar tactic was used on Evvie to have the hand take the damage from the fire to smother her face. That was brilliant. I think that was one of my first fights with her. Maybe the second or something. I think the fight with the clockman came after.
Name: Varnes
Age: ???
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance: His true form is often concealed at the very least in a flowing white cloak.

Personality: He's often neutral in matters, seldom taking part in things for his own persona goals, but instead interfering in matters important to the stability of the multiverse as a whole. He doesn't let emotions or morality dictate what he believes the best course of action to alleviate the situation at hand. As such, he doesn't care if people see him as good or evil. His biggest weakness could be his "above it all" persona, often underestimating what others are capable of due to being too detached to pay enough attention to the reality of the situation.

Abilities

Physical Abilities- Immense. He's able to wipe out skyscrappers by punching them, appears to only be a blur, if that, to human perception upon quick movement, and greatly enhanced reactions and durability to match said abilities without destroying himself, although his abilities are more strength and speed oriented without taking into account armor that he wears.

Powers

His powers involve his silvery, glittery, transparent essence, which is his life force that he's able to manipulate to do incredible things. It also enhances his physical abilities, but because he doesn't need to focus on this fact it's just counted as a normal physical ability that's always active. However, if his essence is somehow turned off, he would indeed lose his physical prowess as well.

He can send essence off of his body faster than a bullet, it being virtually weightless so can travel swiftly and change directions on a dime. However, it also makes it hardly have any punch unless he spends time charging it up, making his essence by itself a poor attack for those of his tier. However, it can still instantly kill most normal humans if they take a direct hit and could destroy an entire city if he charges all of his essence into the attack.

His essence slowly fades to nothingness when outside his body unless concentrated on and revitalized with additional essence, fading far quicker if dispersed into a mist, which is common for certain powers he uses. The mist would be completely gone within five minutes without his intervention.

His essence can infuse into and pass through objects besides rare exceptions and things more powerful than his essence can penetrate.

He could run out of essence eventually, being in major trouble if he uses so much that his physical abilities start to falter. Eventually he would die or loose consciousness if pushing himself even further.

Teleportation- He can teleport anything infused with his essence to any location with his essence. The object teleported conserves it's momentum before teleportation, which can allow for some interesting strategies based on what orientation he teleports the object in. Teleporting larger objects takes more of his essence to pull off, logically.

Possession- Infusing his essence into something, he can control it was if telekinetic. However, those with high enough energy or willpower can break free of his control. Possessing something requires a lot of focus on it so he cannot possess too many things without suffering from a lack of control on them.

Mind Read- If his essence is infused into someone's mind, spending additional essence, he can read their mind and speak directly into it with his own. Reading what they're outright thinking or feeling is simple unless the person is a master at guarding their mind, while delving deeper into their memories requires much more effort and concentration.

Equipment

Substitute Body- Using possession, he commonly infuses special mannequins with his essence, often filled very densely so they can carry on operations on their own without his body supplying them additional essence. They require a special magical "brain" and sensors that he can mind read in order to see from their perspective while using them. Their bodies are made out of the strongest natural material from the multiverse he comes from, allowing them to withstand modern earthling weapons indefinitely.

These mannequins are obviously difficult to create so he probably has less than ten, although the exact number is unknown. He can use far less expensive, yet less threatening, mannequins as well to serve a similar purpose.

Distant Armory- He has various equipment infused with his essence in a secret vault, many of which are super valuable. This allows him to teleport in a massive number of different load outs of both armor and weaponry to fit the situation.

Bio

Once a far more simple adventurer, he was caught in a dimensional explosion that tore his very being, his essence, from his physical body. His essence miraculously managed to stay within the mortal plane of the multiverse despite the devastation, and he has since reunited with a physical body while still retaining the ability for his essence to wander. With this great new power he has set his sights on grand plans.
Also, Important, i'll be posting for our practice match in an hour or so. I apologize in advance for the severe lack of action for such a long wait: all Vos'stoorge does is shuffle up to Hikaru and touch her blade with his dagger. Don't be fooled though - that is a very endangering move. XD


Endangering...her katana?
So what ultimately got you guys into Arena fighting?

For me, combat was a big part of MYB RPing, but then I went offsite and saw this wonderful bout, but could never find it again. It involved two guys in a stadium type of thing, one was using strings to create lines around the stadium and his opponent, early on, lost a finger.

That's my biggest goal, to participate in a fight that hooks me like that from the very beginning. To me, they represent the pinnacle of Arena RPing.

I fought a childhood friend a bit in a similar format to this and he once did a clever move by telekinetically flinging one of my characters into the path of a fireball from my other character, killing the one hit and wasting the other's time and energy so that he was quickly defeated afterwards. I don't know if they are still roleplaying, probably not, or even what website we used, but it was fun. I didn't do much for a while after we stopped seeing each other.
Well the idea is that the student beats the master.


I have no master. I am a lone wanderer.
With unlimited control over electricity, couldn't he just electrocute everyone to death instantly from inside their own bodies? That could be funny dark humor as he zaps us as we challenge him, but...

I guess we could slowly gauge power level based on the ones already posted, so around 7,000 would be near god tier in my opinion. We'd need more numbers to get a good feel of this but humans might be...10? I'll definitely wait to post a sheet until we know more.
