Hey Rofls, I've come to the pretty sudden realisation that I have a little too much on my plate at the minute. Aside from this, I have another 4+ RPs on the site and a few more off-site as well. I'm heading away for 10 days next week so I'll be even more behind than before! So, I think I'm just going to put this on reserve until something frees up. It looked really awesome but I just don't think I have the time for it now.

I seem to be awfully late for this, but is there an opening? 'Cause I really like the concept and I haven't joined an RP in a while.
E: You know what? I'll just throw this in. If there is an open slot, then you can review this. If not, then too bad, I guess.
Name: Raymond Sakamura
Appearance:
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Year Level: 1st Year
Faction/Club: Unaffiliated (for now)
Power: - Inhuman agility and dexterity - while it's still unknown if there is a hereditary factor involved in his powers, what truly makes Ray unique from the rest of the fighters is that he has no real, distinct powers. If observed closely however, his fighting skills do have traits that don't show in your average joe, such as his ability to change positions and move freely while mid-air, allowing him to dodge projectiles and so forth. His erratic movements also allow him to be extremely unpredictable and, coupled with his unmatched speed, grant the young Sakamura the ability to deliver fatal blows and finish the battle in record time.
That being said, with powers come weaknesses. While he is very good at pinning down an opponent in a fair fight, he has trouble keeping up with those who employ long range attacks. He is also rather fragile. If you're skilled enough to pin him down, you might knock him out with a few nicely timed hits. Good luck with that, tho'.
As for his fighting style, Sakamura is self-taught and as such uses no single type of martial art. Rather, his style is comprised of several different arts such as Krav Maga, Jiu Jitsu and Pencak Silat, all moves he has learned by watching different action films. His execution is flawed, but the blows he delivers are lethal nonetheless, courtesy of his physical blessing. In most battles, he goes with a hit-and-dodge tactic, unwilling to let himself be cornered by his adversary.
Biography: Born to Yosuke Sakamura and Elisabeth Payne - Sakamura.
Raymond's father, Yosuke, was a world renowned Japanese athlete who was the main representative of his country during the World Olympics. As such, Ray grew into a fairly rich family. Following his son's birth, Yosuke decided to move into his wife's hometown, England, specifically London, and planned to stay there permanently, considering England to be a better place to raise a child than Japan. He was quite wrong.
It was at the age of eight that young Sakamura began to exhibit behaviors unusual for a kid. He wasn't bringing any friends from school, he was eerily quiet everytime he was around the house, and he spent most of his spare time locked up in his room. Suspicious, Yosuke decided to go out one day and visit his son at the local playground, after his wife told him that that's where he could be. What he saw that day completely changed how he viewed his son.
There was sweet, young Raymond, dragging a screaming boy by his wrists, as a little raven haired girl lied down in the ground, sobbing and bleeding a few feet away from him. He then proceeded to stomp the little boy to smithereens as his cries for help became muffled following each stomp. Sure, there was a desperate offensive launched by the other boys who were his age, but he just shook them off like they were a minor nuisance. Appalled by his son's display of brute strength, Yosuke barged in and managed to calm the beast down before his beatdown turned into murder. Turned out that wasn't Ray's first temper tantrum. There was a couple more of them which ended terribly, with both the other students and the school's staff receiving gut wrenching injuries. Upon being briefed of his son's shenanigans, the former athlete took measures almost immediately, but his measures proved to be fairly ineffective. His appointment with a famous therapist ended with said therapist having his ear bitten off. They also tried to hire a witch doctor, believing his bursts of anger to be related to witchcraft, but the entire practice was interrupted after the shack inexplicably was caught on fire. And let's not even talk about that time he killed the neighbor's dog after he caught him take a leak on his yard. Long story short, the kid was pure evil and after a while, even Yosuke threw his hands in the air and gave up. His last resort was to take him back to Japan, believing that their strict practices would somehow heal him.
During his time in Japan, Raymond's outbursts didn't get any better. They had to move different cities, regions and thus change schools on several occasions. He never got the chance to make any friends. However, one day, as Yosuke was driving to get him to his school, he observed as he dismantled six attackers, possibly people he's pissed off, with relative ease. That is when he realized that not only was he an abusive jerk, he was extremely good at delivering said abuse. So, seeing as his thirst for violence couldn't be quenched, he decided to enroll him in an ever growing high school that promoted violence, holding onto the hope that if he meets a fighter more formidable than him, then he'll learn to bow his head down.
Yeah, but kinda need clarification on that. Student Council notwithstanding, do we need anything else for those positions?
Nope, just beat the captain with the right to be captain as a wager. But if you're bad as a leader then you're bad as a leader and someone else might try to fight you.
@Teal Nah, it's fine. A couple of things to note though, the fighters club does have people just no players right now. Also, wouldn't that phone be broke if he slammed it?
@RoflsMazoy I fixed the part about the Fighter Club.
And,
He pulled the cellphone out of his ear and glared at it for a split second, before taking a deep breath and violently slamming it down the tiles, effectively shattering it to pieces.

The phone did break.
Okay, thanks.
Also, considering everyone seems to have resolved all their plot threads, I will probably be moving onwards. Would you all like one more day, or should I just skip directly to the morning of the Rumble?

Also I'm going to sleep now, be back in 8 hours.
My character has basically nothing to do, so the matter of skipping ahead doesn't really matter. Where will the Rumble start at? Will it be designated spot for each club?
