Vordak's.

Whip Girl (Ingrid 2.0)

Artificial muscle whips: no taper, leafblade weight on the end, four muscles giving eight flex directions. Rough sleeve covering the whips gives protection from electrical current and a high friction contact surface. Attached to a pulley that can adjust the length.

Manifesting two rows of blades along the whips, Takeda style. Slightly angled, no overlap but tightly spaced nevertheless.

Great physical strength, high weight, good protection, average speed.

Dual sickles that can be attached to the end of the whips, connected by the leafblade weight.

Maybe a dagger too?

Muscle fiber traps: manifest as disics with muscle fibers attached to the outer perimeter, wound around in a whirpool shape, each strand spiraling towards the center. Upon activation they rise upwards, spin and flay outwards, splaying out in an inverted whirlpool, creating the second position; activating from second position will pull the towards the center, back into first position.

A lid can be summoned over the fibers in first position, which will toss it directly upwards. Activation can be upon command or upon contact.

A stabilizing system holds it in place when it activates, made of multiple rings. Upon activation magic particles are manifested inside the ring and accelerated to spin inside; any displacement will cause them to collide with the walls and exert counterforce. The multiple rings ensure that counterforce can be exerted in any direction of 3d space.

The base form is a small disc, containing runes for building the rest of the trap, and stabilizing rings wrapped around the disc. It can be placed and then commanded to fully manifest.

As of now, i am more inclined to attribute this to miscommunication and simply poor luck. Aint enough hard evidence to make the opposite conclusion yet.

RPGuild is not an alliance of some sort with a single core philosophy or particularly strong sense unity - we're just a melting pot full of different people with different outlooks, who all just happen to enjoy RP fighting and have settled down on the Guild at some point.

So yeah, dig deep enough and you'll probably find what you're looking for. Or maybe something you never knew you liked and needed.

Regardless, isolationism is only going to further deteriorate the RP fighting community as a whole. If we want new blood and a bigger, better, more exciting future for the craft, we gotta stick together. Nobody's going to interested in a form of roleplay that only remains living within a handful of self-containted cliques composed of two and a half people each; nor is such an existance going to be fun for the participants themselves.

Too hasty of a judgement, too soon of a leave. You could've kept digging untill you hit gold; but suit yourselves.

Come back when the drama's grown dead cold then, and if nobody else, i'll cook up yer bois a hot hell in a casket.

Regarding the latter, i think a multiple lives scenario, like in your typical arena fps game, could make for an interesting high tier combat system. You could learn the actual strategies the opponent is using, as well as their sneak attack setups, forcing both players to get creative with how they employ those.

It would also be simply fun to explode someone into a fountain of gore multiple times over, as opposed to just once.
