Actually, upon reviewing the OP, it looks like we only create the fighting game character, and the player who played them is supposed to be us ourselves? If so then that takes that decision away. Hm...
So, crossdressing, potentially? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...tough decision on my hands, now. :D
4. What happens if a male character in the RP mains a female character in Rift Warriors or vice versa?

Lol I think I just figured out my queen's ultimate: she summons her entire army of soldiers, who then combine into a 3 story tall knight megazord (2 stories without its legs). In game it would be an install that makes her a pseudo boss that fills up the background from the waist up, with each of its attacks causing the appearance of platforms sticking out of it (shields of soldiers having trouble keeping their balance) that the opposing player would need to jump up to reach her head to deal damage. Damage could also be done to the limbs, but that would only decrease the active time of the ult without dealing damage to her.
Alright, so to be clear, the characters in Rift Warriors X are not pulled from other IPs and stories that exist in-universe, they were made for Rift Warriors by the game's own creative team, with each character being based on a specific place and time period in history. More Soul Calibur or For Honor than Smash Bros. or Multiversus. Is that the correct understanding? Sorry for the confusion, I sometimes laser focus on the wrong part of a sentence.

My initial thought was to make a dullahan with a claymore, fire/will-o-the-wisp powers, and a bear trap in place of teeth, but if we're going for characters more grounded in history than fantasy, I might go for more of a queenly lady-of-war who summons different types of soldiers.
3. That...doesn't quite answer my question. Specifically, what does "time period of origin" mean in this answer? My guesses are either the period he was first invented as a fictional character, or the time period in which stories depicting him were set. There's also the possibility that I misunderstood the phrase "fictional characters from across time and space" in the original post; I took that to mean they're fictional in-universe, pulled from different stories and IPs a la the aforementioned Smash Bros, but maybe you meant they're fictional to us, the players of this RP, but in-universe they're historical figures? Or maybe they are fictional in-universe, but they were created for Rift Warriors and based off historical depictions of warriors?

P.S. We haven't even started and we already have an annoying-to-fight zoner. XD
Black Cat recommended this to me. Seems like it could be fun, being so open-ended sounding. I'm already picturing a re:creators-esque mishmash of characters from different genres in this fighting game. I have a few questions since you mentioned them:

1. The winners are the top players of what game, exactly? Rift Warriors IX is what I'm assuming.

2. Considering the idea for the series is a crossover fighting game featuring fictional characters from across time and space, wouldn't at least some of these characters already have superhuman abilities? If so, do the non-superhuman ones just get as much of a boost as needed to make the characters roster balanced and be able to use the same kinds of tools as more powerful fictional characters?

3. The sentence about superhuman abilities also mentions they depend on "the era in which they were summoned." Am I correct in interpreting this as "their abilities will be themed not only around the character, but also the time period in which they were originally created"? Or is it a situation where, like, the same fictional character can have multiple iterations made in different time periods, and their abilities will relate specifically to the time period in which that iteration was penned? Or does it have less to do with the time period of authoring and more to do with the time period their story was set in?
Kira likewise stopped upon hearing the sounds of the skirmish coming from down the hall. Not one to shy away from a fight, and itching to knock some more heads after having her trip back home ruined by these wetsuit-clad jerks, a smirking Kira took a step toward the source of the noises.

"Keep going towards the engine room. I'll catch up with you soon."

The blur that Kana had become whizzed by her before she could fully register what the woman had said, though the pause that sudden movement gave her lasted long enough for her to do so. She...wasn't fully confident she could keep up with that kind of movement in a fight, the wide-eyed Kira decided, at least not without hindering it with gravity, which would be counter-intuitive with them fighting on the same side. It was probably best to stay out of the crossfire of that one.

Plus... Kira looked back at the disheveled rugrat who had yet to throw her name, expression setting as her determination settled on a course of action. I got her to think about.

Kira turned back on course toward the sound of the engine still coming from the open door they hadn't arrived at yet. "You heard the lady. We keep goin' this way. C'mon."

She resumed walking at the same pace they had been before Kana's departure, deciding to use the time it would take to reach the room to get some information flow going. If they were going to run into trouble in the engine room, it might be helpful for them to know what to expect from one another. "My Septima lets me manipulate the magnitude and direction of gravity, either for myself, objects in my line of sight, or for every living thing in an area around myself. I can't target specific living things with the effect. So if I tell you to hold onto me, you hold on tight, okay? And maybe close your eyes if you get motion sick easy."
Having not found anything of interest to her on the knocked out goons' persons, Kira stood to better listen to Kana's proposal.

"If we can find some way to get to the outside of the ship, then you can stick me to the wall and I can run up it to the bridge, find the one responsible for this whole mess—I'd bet on him being up there—and deal with him. Cut the head off the snake, yknow? If I need to hurt people at all, I'd rather hurt as small an amount as possible."

"Yeah, I can prob'ly man--"

Kira's answer was cut off by the ship lurching from the increase in speed, and the subsequent thud from a nearby room. Kira figured it was just another passenger like herself and Kana, or maybe an object falling, so she quirked an eyebrow as Kana proceeded to treat the noise with much more urgency. She watched her slip a mask over the bottom half of her face and begin to stalk toward the sound like a bipedal spider would its prey.

"I'm going to go see what that was. Want to avoid loss of life as much as I can."

Kira wasn't sure if that meant Kana was going to treat the source of the sound as a threat or as a life to avoid the loss of, but she supposed it didn't really matter until she got there. The real question was that of her own next move. In order to pull off Kana's plan, they'd need access to outside the ship, which the rooms that opened into this hallway didn't have, being so deep in the hull.

"I'll come, too. The room that came from might have a porthole."

She fell into step behind Kana, her own footfalls being much quieter than hers, to the point that they might as well have been silent underneath the tinking that rang through the halls. She considered altering her gravity and walking on the ceiling so that she wouldn't be right behind Kana if she got targeted by a surprise attack, but decided against it; she was going to need her EP for Grav Room if they found that porthole.

"Hey. Anybody in there?"

"Knock once for "yes", knock twice for "fuck off, bitches, I have a harpoon"."
Kana. Adept. Tall woman with blade legs. Could punch hard enough to knock a person out. Liked to plan before acting. Had a combat-suitable outfit prepared, indicating she had been expecting combat when she got on this ship. Her blade guards weren't made for combat, indicating (disturbingly but perhaps not surprisingly) that despite her reluctance to do so in this current situation, she possibly did use her blade legs to kill. Kira took in the details as they were given to her, formulating an opinion and trying to extrapolate further knowledge. Kira, despite having formal training in a martial art and being a thrill-seeking danger magnet, didn't consider herself a dangerous person necessarily. This Kana, though. She was a dangerous person. Or perhaps, given her lax and amicable demeanour, she was a nice person with a dangerous job. I mean, she has blades for legs. Perfect for working the cash at a convenience store, stupid, Kira berated herself.

"Right. Plan. Any bright ideas?"

"Well, it'd be easier to form one if we had some info on what these guys were up to," Kira said, tilting sideways into a quarter-cartwheel as she shifted her gravity back to normal and planted her feet back on the floor. She then pointed her finger at the door pinning the now unconscious assailants, then pointed behind her with the thumb of the same hand, using the motions to apply her Septima, making the door fly back into her room. She knelt down and began searching the men, now slumped onto the floor, for clues about what they were doing. Maybe they had some written orders or floor plans or something. "Was kinda' hopin' we could interrogate 'em, tee-bee-aech. Sleepin' dudes tell about as many tales as dead ones."
