Hope I didn't overplay my guys there.

Legend of Korra - For Lack of A Better Path (2)

As the match started it went off the hings from practically the start as the reds immediately set out on trying to trip up Lee knowing he was one of the league's best hitters with his powerful fire blasts with the earth bending keeping Ren from helping Lee. However the Earth Bender, a boy by the name of Shin Len, was blocked as Hana once more saved Ren using a water strike to smash the earth block away from Ren. Ren returned the favor by sending an earthen block right towards the legs of the water bender on their side of the court, a woman, by the name of Zhen Zi, and took out her shoulder as Lee rolled to the left in a cart wheel where he landed promptly and then jumped and kicked forward with his legs almost sending him back a zone as the fire balls impact with the new earth blocks. Shen Len had just picked up. "So far it seems the Red Komodo Rhinos are getting pummeled by these former champions! Lee is showing off his signature acrobatics and power! He may not be all that flashy folks but when it comes to blunt power there's a reason he's is a part of the boar family!" The announcer proclaimed much to the boos of some of the crowd. Ren didn't care his mind was on the game as he sent block after block towards the water bender who was being pummeled mercilessly by the earthen blocks used by the pro bending companies.

She couldn't do squat to help the fire bender who took a hard hit to the belly by Hana and was subsequently smacked hard in the face by a blast of water sending him backwards. Shen finally managed to get a shot past Ren whom was sending rock after rock at the enemy team in fast paced motion. He needed to hit them with sturdy shots. One power shot was good but if you missed that was a different story. Ren preferred to use multiple blocks because he had a better chance of hitting them if he sent them in a volley one after the other. Regardless the rock smacked Lee in the shoulder but the brick of a man shrugged it off despite being momentarily stunned and pushed back into the next zone and sent a fearsome fireball towards the Earth Bender who blocked it only to get staggered back and momentarily stunned as Ren sent three disks flying. One hit the fire bender in the belly just like Hana did knocking him back hard into the next zone back. The second smacked into the Earth Bender stunned by Lee and went back flying into the next zone. "Weaklings how the hell are they in elite!?" Lee growled as Hana took the defensive approach she usually did and blocked for Lee as he sent a fire blast at the water bender forcing her to jump up in the air only to get hit by a rock by Ren. "And that is how the cookie crumbles or in this case how to take down a group of Komodo Rhinos!" The horn sounded as the green light pops up and Lee advances back into their zone as Hana Ji and Ren go into the next line.

"Alright my boy Ren! Let's beat'em till they're as red as they're signature animal!" Hana whispered to Ren whom nodded and signaled Lee to go on the defensive for them this round. Hana and Ren formed far a part to let Lee do his thing. "You're going down you overgrown fish!" Zhen shouted at them, "Oh I'm sorry I couldn't hear you over the sound of my bro's rock smashing into your gut!" Hana countered as the match continued as they immediately went for Hana who was almost immediately knocked back due to all three focusing on her as Lee decided to go on the offensive seeing an opening. Hana was tripped up despite her quick movements due to the water bender Zhen getting her with a shot of water. Ren however capitalized on this by taking out the fire bender by using three rock coins at once two of which hit him one with a glancing blow the other was coupled by Lee's fire black immediately after sending the fire bender tumbling out of the ring into the water below. "Son of a gun!" Shen cursed as he send a rock towards Ren who nonchalantly dodged it and sent another barrage at Ren as he was now being focused on because Zhen pushed Hana back into their zone. However due to his ability to quickly bend rocks due to his considerable training Ren held his ground stoutly as he blocked with his rocks instead of attacking. Hana however had gotten a bit frustrated because Lee decided to push hard on the next opponent standing dangerously close to the line as he and Hana sent another barrage of water and fire towards the enemy team whom was to disorganized by the crowd and the loss of their friend to even make a real attempt at team work as Ren came dangerously close to being forced back into the next ring Hana and Lee simultaneously managed to send the end zone where Ren capitalized by knocking them both into the water with a lucky shot with one rock that hit both of their legs as they got up. "And the first round goes to the Silver Shark Whales! Two more rounds left but by a massive offensive barrage with insane team work they take the first round by knock out! And lucky for them because the three minutes were just about up! With a three-zero on the knockout board and it going one-zero on the scoreboard it seems the sharks will find their prey on LAND this time ladies and gentlemen!" The announcer proclaimed as Ren went back to his side and waited for his team to do so, "We went hard but we can't blow it all next round or get reckless. Go hard but be careful they'll want vengeance." Lee commented as Ren nodded, "Don't worry fire-for-brains we got this!" Hana commented as she took her positon and waited for their opponents to get back to the stage.

===
Note:

Ren and Lee's aggressive styles are boarder line 'unnecessary roughness' as the two of them send barrages on the enemy. Lee's blast are rather fast and powerful, however they don't exceed the one second rule and thus only when he concentrates or is extremely determined to hit something can he really give a power shot like he did against the earth bender Shen when he stunned him. If Lee missed he would have been wide open to an attack had his team not been there for him. Lee is a power style bender by preference and the barrages he sends are numerous only because he uses both his hands and his feet meaning he can be unbalance if an enemy bender manage to hit his feet when he's in the middle of a kick. However Lee is also hard to get to go down because of his tough physique and will power making him a devastating fire bender.

Also as mentioned Lee's acrobatics are merely basic in nature. He can jump and rolls with ease due to the nature of his training and his experience in many a training bout. However he can't do twirls on the spot and most of his abilities are just to augment his bending style. He is no parkour artist.

Ren's style is to hit them hard with as many blocks as he can while in pro-bending. However while this means he's harder to dodge that means he is not sending them with any particularly devastating force unlike the powerful Lee Shang. Ren's rocks hit hard but are neither particularly fast or powerful meaning they can be blocked if cornered as demonstrated when he was nearly pushed back in the last round. He succeeds most when people are helping him and in singular situations he is known to be a bit easier to take out due the nature of his attacks.

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

What about Gm's who power play their character(s)? Once in a naruto rp i had a guy who had a rinnegan (see naruto rp for details beware of spoilers) kid at six to eight years of age or so with stupid amounts of abilities attached to his eyes that weren't even canon with the actual thing. For example he stopped one of my characters from using a SOUND based jutsu that fucks up your brains ability to process stuff essentially rending them to their hands and feet, as well as blocking and sending back a hail of ninja stars my character threw immediately afterward. This was a character whom had been build with high regards in terms of talent. He was for all means and purposes a prodigal son in terms of it. But somehow he gets wrecked after those two attacks happening because somehow he negated both the sound jutsu and sent some sort of telekinetic blast at my character. In reality the kid would have needed to cover his ears or suffer from the attack (which has two post turns of charging) and get stabbed by the ninja stars or take the jutsu and block the physical attacks. You can't stop a ability that travels through sound.

I do my best to keep my characters when I gm to a above average to less extents. In a current naruto rp I'm playing my guy excels heavily in ninjutsu (the physical types of abilities) but sucks in genjutsu (illusions) and has average taijutsu (normal hand to hand combat sort of stuff). The only time I go out of my way to make a powerful character is if the rp needs a base to hold up on in case no one else specializes in that one area or can't be trusted to do so without power playing or the meta game. In exchange for that I make them the jock archetype character who prefers to smash thins as opposed to thinking things through.

Mobile Suit Gundam - Those Who Correct - Crossover

"I'm not saying I disagree with you but what right do you have to talk about Justice? Celestial Being hasn't exactly been doing legal tenure and last time I checked that machine still has one of your fancy drive engines in it. You're probably from the same organization or at least different branches because last time I saw the AEU, and the Human Reform League didn't have tech on that level." Graham asked simply as he considered his thoughts on what exactly these people were...they weren't terrorists unless they're good enough to steal a ship this big and well armed or these were common where they came form. "I'm going to say these group of people are from a North American Military Organization that identifies itself by the name of OMNI Enforcer. They don't speak with European accents that I know of and these suits look rank and file designs much like my flag. I doubt that they're anything like your Celestial Being Organization quite frankly." Graham told her as Puru frowned and shook from left to right, "I don't know these people looks like AEUG soldiers but they're not in the suits I know that they use. It looks REALLY similar to the Argama but Captain Bright is not in charge and Judau ain't here neither is that Kamile guy either. So I suppose they aren't Zeon either because they killed Glemy's men. Otherwise I don't know sorry....I wish I could help more but I don't think these guys mean us harm if it matters to you Saturnalia-san." Puru commented as Graham looked over and shouted towards the Instructor, "Hey there what do you guys want? Like that gundam or something buddy? You don't look like one of the OMNI guys." Graham questioned him as Puru looked past Graham and didn't really introduce herself, "That man looks funny." Puru said giggling.

Waiting for you guys. Just to let you three know it's been a month since this rp started and we're still not rangers....

Mobile Suit Gundam SEED - Heroes of ORB

"I would expect an OMNI soldier like you young lady to be a bit more patient with her officers." Welsh said patiently as he breathed in deeply and took a bottle of water and took a large chug of it in one go. He ran his hand through is blonde hair and then he cracked his neck. "However now...well now you can go and start readying up that mobile suit." Welsh commented plainly as Richard didn't even flinch as he took a pen from his uncle and signed his name on the dotted line on all the papers. He'd miss being ORB but at the end of the day it was a different uniform....that was all. A mobile suit like Calamity will be of massive help if he learned how to use it and he found out exactly what his old friend was doing this for. He was determined to make her answer his damn questions if he had to pry it from her lips himself. Besides he grew up in North America that meant if things were different he could have been a member of OMNI instead of ORB. This national change wasn't as extreme for him as it would have been for others. "I'll read up on Calamity's formal systems later but for now Captain Welsh sir I'd like to go and meet the crew and say good bye to some old friends with your permission sir." Richard asked him as he saluted and Welsh grunted, "Go on lad for now your other compatriots need to go and freakin' sign so we can get'a move on now. I don't have all day we're going to go and attack former ZAFT soldiers and those pirates soon, tomorrow exactly, with a joint ORB forces we'll be a nearby OMNI fleet moving in to assist in the removal of these rogues. We don't have a general lock on their vicinity but they can't be to far so satelliates will find them soon enough if not we got other ways of finding out stuff." Welsh commented as Mizawa confirmed it to be sure. "Indeed we will eliminate them like cockroaches in a factory." Mizawa said with particular delight as if he were sampling a fine rich person's food item.

Alright good posts so far guys all we need now is for empath and jav to post but I will see if I can work up a post but I got three roleplays to post in so I might burn out before I make one.

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

I've come a long way but I'm still not uber awesome like half the guys on advanced are in terms of quality of posts and size. That being said I'm one of the few guys on here with one roleplay completed and one aborted but completed (Everyone was getting tired so I beamed the final boss to the area we were fighting in and had one of the canon protagonists of gundam OO wreck him hard.)

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

When people try to put in things that were not in canon when clearly everyone else was told that it should be kept within canon of the game.

When people don't read the whole Interest check and then join find out what the rp is really about then bail

When people GM then leave for a week or more at a time leaving a confused group of people sitting on their asses without a clue on what's going on.

When people just up and leave a roleplay without a single word.
