@Double - Even I had a problem with your character's many aliases. I suggest you stick with Xun as the name you give to the club. And the Beast can be your moniker that you use during matches.

He only has one, though. Xun the Beast. I'm not really seeing how that can be confusing.

My bad, @Double. I confused your announcer Gao with your alias.

@vancexentan - I finally have a scenario figured out for you. Maika will lead you down the rabbit hole should you choose to follow ^_^

@Skai - Got one for you, too. I believe Old man Wu has an interesting tale to tell. One that could potentially lead directly to your gruesome demise. But then again, who dares wins, right? ;)

@Ithradine, @Double, @vancexentan, @BuzzKill, @Exit, @Skai

In my IC posts, you will notice I tag one or more of you. But that shouldn't discourage the rest of you from reading those posts. Too often, I will be planting information or clues in these posts. Some of them will be stated as common knowledge. Some of them will be explicitly stated as being known only to a few. You might want to consider these nuggets in your posts to better align with the worldbuilding.

For instance, there was a major blast that claimed 200 lives a week ago in Republic City. It is considered to be an Equalist attack and the police are under a lot of pressure to find the culprits. This will have a bearing on all your individual plots. Similarly, other events and actions will have repercussions.

The way your individual scenarios are going to branch out, we will have a lot of overlap. And, hopefully, we can knit together an interesting RP.

Double dog dare me!

Post up in a bit.

@Leah Posted. Also, I changed the announcer's name from Gao to Zhou. I'd rather avoid getting him confused with the other Gao.

@Ithradine, @Double, @vancexentan, @BuzzKill, @Exit, @Skai

To handle combat in this RP, I am going to borrow a leaf from classic D&D combat.

When in a combat situation, like the one me and @Double are in right now, you can only do one of the following:

1. You can either stand where you are and perform a power attack
2. Or, you can move/dodge/jump/run to a different position/place and perform a regular attack
3. Or, you can stand where you are and perform two regular attacks

I leave you to be the judge of what constitutes a power attack, but I will step in should there be confusion.

A fire-bending punch, a water whip, a boulder throw, a gust of fast wind, a stab of a knife, the aimless firing of a gun, throwing a projectile are all examples of regular attacks.

A raging spout of fire, a powerful water wave, the raising and falling of multiple rock blocks, a whirlwind, a chi-blocking punch, aiming and firing a gun, shooting an arrow or crossbow - are all examples of power attacks.

In addition to one of the above 3 actions, you can always talk or otherwise communicate with your adversaries or your team mates.

While there is no perma-death, you can be penalized for defeat depending on the circumstances. You might lose a toe or two. Gasp!

As we progress along the story, hopefully your characters will get stronger and more experienced. This will reflect in the number of actions you can do in a combat scenario. For now, though, everyone gets only one of three.

Jesus you guys are moving quick now.

Replies when I get home later today.

Heh, Shu would make one hell of a Firebender. Too bad he was born an Earthbender instead. I mean let's face it, if he were a Firebender then he really would just be Zuko 2.0. At least this way we can see some potentially interesting ways for rage to be applied to Earthbending and possibly Sandbending later. That was something I wanted to bring up, I'm hoping for Shu to branch off into Sandbending later on. We haven't had any major Sandbender characters in the show, and a malleable substance like sand makes for some creative Bending attacks and fighting styles.

Well, he does have something else going for him. Unlike characters such as Zuko or Raphael from the TMNT, Shu doesn't have an Iroh or Master Splinter reining him in. I mean imagine what Zuko would have ended up like if Iroh never existed. That's Shu in a nutshell.

Oh I believe he will have a comeuppance sooner or later. No fire can burn too hot lest it consume itself. No earth can shake too much lest it become dust. And no wave can spread itself too thin lest it evaporate. Irohs are everywhere. When the student is ready, the master will appear.

Heh, let me know if we need to slow down a bit. I'm just a little excited to get the story going. If anyone wants to run into each other or collab I'm down.

I apologize for inactivity, still traveling abroad until next week. Thanks for your patience!

don't know assumed this died.

Let's not assume the worst. I'm hoping everyone has just been busy.

Being as slow moving as I am, I'm patient... af. As long as someone comes back to post, I'm still here.

I could move my character to push my side of the story forward?

@Double Thoughts? Maybe give it another day or two before Luna starts to shake things up?

If this is still a thing, I'd be happy to join!

Hmm, tough call. It'd be awkward if Leah came back and we just sort of... moved on with out them. But on the other hand, just waiting around makes it increasingly likely that the RP will die off.

As for me, my hands are somewhat tied. I've started a fight with one of Leah's NPCs so I'm pretty stuck until they come back.

Let’s just give Leah a few more days. She might be busy.

It is the start of the school year for most.

@Skai Of course.

Just a plan in place just in case.
