LeeRoy

Arena Chat Thread

So about ranking systems, I've created about 5 or 6 of them since I started Arena Roleplaying on this site. The two that were most successful for me were the:

10 Tier System with ranks being loosely placed.
And
15 Tier System with ranks being more tightly placed, but with the chance for characters to rank up.
Though both of them inevitably failed, due to lack of posting on the latter's part, and dying interest on the former's part.

To the point though; If someone could come up with a ranking system that everyone agreed on, that might increase the traffic to the Arena. Maybe open up the curtains that tend to cover up this rather small community of roleplayers.

Some people disagree with tier systems entirely, some people disagree with putting numbers to it, and some people disagree with how their character would be ranked. Lots of arguments come from it.

Well I've started an exceptionally long process of Retconning my entire Mythos.

The characters that I've used in the Arena are being rebalanced and made to be more interesting.

The newer characters are only getting a few tweaks and such, but I just felt like y'all would find it useful information in case y'all started another Arena.

It clears up why my characters will be different in the future.

What's going on in this thread?

Oh lord.

So much to read.

100 vs. Big Bad!

The Spider and the Fly:

The plan had gone off without a hitch, which means that phase two would be even easier. Normally part one goes horribly awry, and she has to think of an entirely new plan. But for once it actually worked! The spider sneered and tightened up her back legs for a moment. "Now you die!" Still unaware of her foe's ability to control water, Jessibelle released the webbing from the ends of her legs and lunged forward. With her right hand she reached down and to the left, grabbing the blade from its sheath and slinging it outwards. With one lunge the Empress intended to end Wrath's life before he could land a single blow. Jessibelle's blade was swung with deathly speed and precision, carrying the spider's colossal weight behind it as well. If her aim remained true and Wrath didn't avoid this strike, he would be decapitated on the spot.

The Scientist and the Assassin:
LeeRoy didn't actually expect the shield to hold, and so the follow up charge was quite a surprise. So much so that he was knocked backwards to the ground, bullets sailing over him harmlessly. The Scientist scrambled to push himself upwards onto his hands, an awkward backpedal followed where he crawled on all fours backwards. "Now you hold on, what just happened?"

You got cocky, again.

"Shut up, I didn't ask you." The immortal retorted bitterly, his pride a bit damaged by being taken by surprise so easily. LeeRoy hadn't yet noticed that his blade had been knocked out of his hand and off to the side, an unfortunate happening. Oddly enough, his thoughts were more on Shin rather than himself, wondering how his fight was going.

To Shin, his opponent's dodge was little more than a nuisance. Shin adjusted his wrist once again, the black staff extending towards its target once again with a wide flat edge forming on it. Like an axe, but with no blade to tip it. Shin tightened his grip on his personalized tool, increasing its weight to about 460 lbs, increasing the force of the swing to about half that of a car crash. The assassin didn't care to fight this kind of opponent because their mind was not dedicated wholly on him, it left them open for attacks. They nearly hit LeeRoy, which might have killed him, yes. But Shin was left with an enormous window of opportunity to strike again. The strike wouldn't kill Liev, no, but it would likely break most of their ribs. (To clarify, it is aimed somewhere to the center of their torso. Below their armpit, but above their waist.)

100 vs. Big Bad!

Alright alright, lemme just. . .

Get right on this post.

Dragon Dance : The Frozen North (Hi-Casual) (Action-Adventure and Survival Horror in a Dark Shared Fantasy World) (Always Open)

Once the actual plot begins, I'll introduce my character more naturally. A semi-sapient Berserker doesn't have much in the way of political opinion.

100 vs. Big Bad!

The Spider and the Fly:

If Jessibelle actually had hair on the back of her neck, she would have felt the sharp tingling sensation of surprise when the word web left his mouth. Fortunately, it seemed as though he had only said it in the sense of 'She's a spider, let's make web puns.' So Jessibelle's plot hadn't been laid bare quite yet. But, when the anchor was sent sailing in her direction, Jessibelle was not delighted to have to spring her trap on an inanimate object.

The Empress reared back like a horse and raised her second set of legs upwards, pushing down on the ground with her two back pairs. This pushed her off of the ground momentarily, and then she leaned her weight forwards. Slamming her second pair of legs downwards to the sides of the anchor. The web snagged onto the wide blade and pushed it downwards with 2,410 lbs of weight, the force behind her downward acceleration being higher, obviously. The anchor clanged to the ground with a mighty gong.

The water blades would be problematic, but this was only a temporary solution to a more extensive problem. The Empress's weight would be more than enough to hold it down, but the true genius is that she isn't actually touching the anchor. The webbing between her legs is what is holding it down, so her legs aren't the closest target.

The blades of water were close to her legs, but they weren't going to hurt her any time soon. Unless this isn't their full length, then Jessibelle's plan might have to change quite rapidly.

The Scientist and The Assassin:

100 vs. Big Bad!

I'll get another post up tonight. In about four to five hours. Preoccupied at the moment, but I have time later.

100 vs. Big Bad!

Also, how superhuman is Liev? Need to know if LeeRoy is going to be pushed aside like a ragdoll or not.

Bumping to keep this on the front page, and to show my interest.
