Maybe post jedi, bounty hunter, jedi, bounty hunter. Due to a jedi and bounty hunter already posting, the order seems set if we go with that.
"I saw another one today," a male student whispered to another while hiding in a dark ally of the school grounds. He glanced both ways to make sure nobody besides the group of four students were eavesdropping in on the conversation before continuing. "One of those filthy half breeds. Looks like a cross with a freakin' reptile."

"Eh? The school has seriously lowered their standards this year? Just what are they trying to pull?" a girl said, disgust clearly evident in her tone. "I paid good money to go here thinking that they would keep those things far away."

"I bet they're forming an army to wipe out the normal humans. Don't trust them for anything," a third boy said. His dark green eyes narrowed with rage. "They want us to just accept these monsters as if they're human, and then it will be too late. Why can't the others see this?!"

"If we don't stop them, who knows how far this new "equality" movement of theirs can spread," the first boy said. "If this school falls to them..."

"Don't worry. I heard that the Swords of Light have infiltrated the school and will put them back in their place soon enough. It's only a matter of time until things go right again," the last boy assured them with a smooth tone. "There's a recruitment going on in the back of the-"

"Hey you, classes will begin in 10 minutes!" A woman in a business suit shouted at them as she passed by, waving them over. "Don't want to be late on your first day!"

"A-Ah! Yeah," the boy shouted back. They all exchanged irritated glances before heading out.

********************

After the first day of school was over, students began to rush for the exit to visit their dorms or stick around to inspect the various arenas that all of the fights would be taking place in. Hikaru barely managed to maintain her footing as students roughly crammed around the challenge board, writing their names down on slips of paper and then pinning them up for all to see. In doing so they were declaring that they'd be fighting pretty soon, at most a weeks notice, and if the person who they write down would also sign their name then the combatants would get access to the arena for their declared time once the stamp of approval had been given. She spotted that some of the papers already had the red stamps on the lower right corner. Apparently some of the students had eagerly come here together to get the process done as quickly as possible. Must have gotten to know each other during the first day and decided it was as good of a day as any to have a fight.

Hikaru was uneasy about starting a fight so soon after coming here, especially after just finding out that she couldn't use her shinai, the fighting style she primarily used. It would be good to get some fight practice in, but it would also be good to spend more time in classes to brush up on other fighting skills first. For now she just watched some of the other students, sizing them up. The crowd knocked her particularly hard while she was distracted, causing her to stumble sideways into a boy about her age. He was probably European.

"Ah, I'm so sorry," she said with a bow. Hopefully, this being a fight school and all, this wouldn't result in a fight. This boy looked nice enough, but she couldn't tell for sure until his reply.
Possible ideas:

1. The bad guys could get their hands on a cloning facility to greatly increase their size.

2. The person behind the Evvie clones could be searching to add more DNA into their mix of the greatest fighters. That way they'd have a half dragon with the half human part also having greatly enhanced abilities. They'd want to create the perfect being to conquer the multiverse as an unbeatable Goddess.

As good a place as any to start, really. So long as it gets the ball rolling. Maybe end it with a short intro of your instructor greeting one of my characters or something. That way we can start introducing everyone.Would it be acceptable if I were to write up a recruitment post for this, and post it on your behalf in the IntChecks? Drum up some additional players, maybe.


Or maybe a NPC lady greeting students at the challenge board? That way we can start things off by setting it up where a lot of students interested in the fights will be in close proximity.

You can handle the recruitment if desired. I'll try to ask around a bit as well. There's already an interest check in the arena.

Borderlands, anyone? Lol.I like the idea of a group of heroes taking on the biggest and baddest a faction has to offer. Like me and Melon. If Khan would post, that is... ;)


Evvie too! You're discriminating against half dragons, aren't you!!! Err...but I'd need to have her at one of her stronger incarnations to deal with the biggest and baddest.
I'll start the IC with some secretive exposition meeting going on, I guess. They will just be NPCs.
Evvie clone faction? Not sure how well that would fit in, but it could.

That's basically what I have been saying. You can't expect to fondle a bullet for a post or more and expect it to defeat a more logical prepped defense.


My assassin girl I used before the forum blew up could charge bullets, but only due to her futuristic gun coating it with energy while in the barrel.

So... What kind of cinematic are we going for? Like, game of thrones or the princess bride?

Never saw game of thrones, but I suppose you mean brutal realism or campy fun? How about we meet halfway or lean towards princess bride.

Where exactly are preps defined as being exclusive to attacks that can gain more raw power? There would be no point to preps if they relied solely on the inherent power of each attack, since that would mean that any attack that delivers more damage than an equally (or higher) prepped defense could absorb would automatically break through the defense. Going back to the armor piercing ammo example, this would mean that an AP round with zero preps could blow through a stone barrier with two preps behind it because stone isn't going to stop a depleted uranium bullet.


I like fights that use that logic. You can't prep a tissue paper for 2 turns and expect it to block a no prep bullet. If we go by what I think it would have to reasonable be able to do what it does. Preps would be able to increase offense and defense of a lot of magic, but preps alone doesn't automatically mean it can beat a non-prep attack.
