Gathering the Bestial Keys

you got it boss.

Now I just need animal manipulation.

Barti is fighting me for nature, you for frost.

Animal is next, unless the animal has other ideas for their key.

Yours will come after one of my currents is done. If LeeRoy doesn't post soon, then it'll start anyway.

I'm setting mine and Barti's today.

And that goes for you to, Barti. It's basically a special rule(s) for the match. Like for the pengiun one, Skally has ruled no magic.

Question: would a roleplay with stats be good or bad idea?

Stats work fine with a good system. In my experience it helps keep people from vaguely describing things like strength and magic, then doing "asspulls/batmanning" and coming up with things not there.

I used them in a Bleach RP, for things like Zanjutsu, kido, reiatsu, hakuda, shunpo, intelligence, and defense. It kept everyone equal, promoted them when they reached a certain number, and made them intricately different. Meaning they had to use their skills as a whole, during most fights, instead of relying on one(unless, it was something specific)

°: Okay so, this indicates another charge, taking the count up to two. Since this will likely be more practice than anything, I'll try to set up different scenarios so you can see everything. Based off your posts I can't readily see any charges on your behalf. In that case, that would put any expectant attack I use that involves the Chi in my sword, say a blast, two points ahead of your defenses.

For instance, should you be able to use a Force Shield, it would have one charge(or zero @Skallagrim can probably verify), meaning my attack would break through and do damage to you(chances are, if you're shielding, you can't dodge, or you would have and kept the charge). It wouldn't be a terrible amount of damage, one charge and all. But in general 1 attack charge = 1 defense charge. I'm not 100% sure what happens if you have more defense charges/use your more charged magic for defense, in terms of damage to the attacker.

But for now, we can go two paths. I just charged, so, you can either:

Block it, and charge an attack(force), or do that, and try to hit me to negate my second charge, concentration and all. Or you can continue on however you prefer, honestly. Hahaha. T1 allows for non-magical based attacks to be used in conjunction with charging magical attacks, so long as your charging doesn't require you being stationary, or some type of ritual.

Alphonse vs Anya Faye

"A light...saber?" He questioned, before the woman began explaining the concept and the basic workings of the weapon. Still, it had no point.

Or that's what he would have said, had not a burst of light ignited from the hilt with all the suddeness of a snake strike. Needless to say Alphonse took a hasty two steps back, and away from the weapon of light. He looked upon the woman, and began to understand more about her Chi abilities. What she called it, hd had no idea, but she seemed fairly capable in the applications of it. This would be a very interesting fight indeed.

She angled her weapon of light and technology, and stepped forward with her left foot. As well as offered him the chance to begin.

He nodded, and slid his own left foot forward and brought his sword to bear. He would need to be careful not to open himself up to much in the early goings; not until he had some understanding of her weapons capabilities. His sword glowed still, brighter, as more Chi was poured into the weapon.°

Alphonse timed his breaths, and struck quickly during the second exhale. It was complemented beforehand with a masterful display of footwork that took him two feet away from the center of the ring. He angled the slash from his right to left, diagonally upward. His right foot poised to provide a point to carry him rightward, in either an attacking motion, or an evasive one.

Another race. Hahaha. Cool. Any stipulations on Kei?

The Beast Master and the Beast Queen

Yeah, you do. Hahahaha. And yeah, reduced power.

Gathering the Bestial Keys

Probably not in this instance, given the challenges may be different.

I'll start our post in the near future. Don't wanna have too many going at once, so close to my kid being born, which would likely mean a short sabbatical for me.

Gathering the Bestial Keys

What challenge did you have in mind?

The Beast Master and the Beast Queen

hahaha
