1v1, Fantasyesque, Ranked, Powered Tier

[yoshua171]

I want to fight someone in a ranked battle, in about the middle of the Powered Tier. Below are the characters I'm willing to use, though technically anything that is not WIP in the thread is open (though many of the characters that I'm not linking happen to be Naruto or Bleachverse. Those Naruto/Bleachverse characters I prefer would fight individuals within their fandom just for ease).

Khuseeya: Mid Powered Warrior with Obsidian magic.
Zephyri: Mid Powered Mage. Creates constructs and has three forms. Power can scale somewhat (limiting her to one of her forms).
Kaelia Katela: Low Powered Warrior with minor physical enhancement, enchanted gear, and Silver manipulation magic.
Raelis Vaerkturian: Mid-High Powered Warrior with heat/light manipulation/generation magic. Minor enchantments on armor. Physically devastating. Magic takes time to become strong, but then becomes deadly as hell.
Timore Scarborough: Low Powered squishy mage. Enchanted items and weird construct/emotion-based magic.
Casana, G. Lecor: Mid-High Powered battlemage. Magic is used to enhance physical body, nullify other magic/do slight damage(must produce an equivalent amount of magical energy to nullify a spell/magical effect), and to alter the size and density of objects (either in part or en full). Extremely fast(disappears when moving at top speed); versatile weapon due to size altering magic.
Dornae Namari: Low-Mid Powered battleMAGE. Magic is a modified form of Enchantment/spellcasting. Can cast almost any sort of spell or enchant objects in any variety of ways so long as they follow the rules of the system in his CS. Generally requires prep time to become powerful. Is not great in close-range combat, but isn't terrible. More of a mage than a warrior.
Ananze: Low-Mid Powered non-human creature. Predator/Animalistic.
Vasarius Aetearan: Low-Mid Powered warrior/mage hybrid. uses physical enhancement magic and a little something on the side. Close range combatant.
Mairyell Kasio: Low-Mid Powered battlemage vampire. Enhanced senses and physical abilities. Blood manipulation magic. Minor healing/absorption magic. Very hard to kill(regen factor).
Dranai Llamant: Low-Mid Powered illusion mage. Has other minor magics, but is primarily an illusionist.
Kirameku: Low Powered warrior with weapon-altering magic.

Aaaand that's all folks!

[ChickenTeriyaki]

I'll try to take a stab at Kasio.

By the way, your character sheets are aesthetically pleasing. I admire them.

@yoshua171

My Tharraleos would find a worthy foe in your Raelis. Predominantly melee fighters with immense damage output and bird traits? Sounds good to me, if you're interested, of course.

[yoshua171]

Alrighty! Two people took interest, well two people shall get fights then! I need to get more active in the arena anyways. I'll make threads for each of you in due time, but I want to go over some fight rules/details and get a judge just in case even though I doubt we'll need one :)

@ChickenTeriyaki Thank you, I try ^_^

If you don't mind, can I see who you plan to use against Mairyell (Mai for short)? Additionally, do you mind if we have a posting timer (something like a post every week sound reasonable?) just so that the fight doesn't drag on forever resulting in us maybe losing interest? We can always put in notice if we have some stuff coming up if we need more time. It won't be strictly enforced, but I imagine it'll help things go smoothly.

Beyond that, do you want me to make an battlefield (I've been told I'm pretty good at it), or would you prefer to pick an existing one? If I am to make one, I'll be sure to be fair about it and not to have it impede either of us unequally. Meaning that if it has any special traits that might act as complications, they will act as complications to BOTH characters rather than favoring one or the other.

@Griffintaur I am currently reading your character sheet to see if I agree on the match-up, but I likely will agree because I've only really used Raelis once and it was against someone who could move and react at times roughly equivalent to the speed of sound (not to mention they had a dangerous nanite swarm and swords that could nullify magic. Oh and it was in a cavern...so Raelis' wings were nigh useless) so he was barely able to follow (having highly advanced/evolved avian perception used for flying or nose diving at tremendous speed is useful).

@yoshua171

My bird cat can't quite move at the speed of sound, but I'm sure his array of other abilities could prove problematic for the Knight of Rhay. As for battlefield; sounds like you're more confident than I do, so I guess I'll leave that up to you.

[yoshua171]

@Griffintaur alrighty :)

Yes I'm seeing the various capabilities. Just finished reading the Physical Appearance. Damn good job there, it's described like a biologist wrote it hehe, well done. I don't know some of the terms, but I more or less followed (occasionally using the wonders of google to supplement my existing knowledge). Tharr's appearance as I understand it is as follows:

Back legs are much like a lions, but with the talons/feet of a bird (three digits in the front, one in the back, foot partially upraised with the toes on the ground rather than the whole foot most times), front legs and feet of a lion with a dew claw. Where the head of a lion/bird/griffon would be is instead the beginning of a humanoid torso that goes upwards to a head and arms. The arms are fully outfitted for flight with feathers that can be manipulated with incredibly dexterity so as to allow the feathers to act as precision digits like a hand if necessary. The face is a combination of a lion's, a bird's and a human's (with heavy focus on the first two) with feathers going backwards from the sides of the eyes, which are capable of curving to the side and then at a near 90 degrees upwards like horns (which can be used as such due to their density and hardness I imagine). The face has a beak rather than a snout or flat mouth like a human, the beak is capable of splitting into four sections, like mandibles, rather than just being the two sections like a bird or most non-insectoid/arachnoid animals. The beak has retractable teeth/fangs and there are gills inside the mouth portion of the beak as well, which can be opened and closed as necessary to provide air/oxygen etc even when underwater. Lastly the entire body is covered with a mixture of thick fur and dense feathers, which together provide armor equivalent to iron/steel or a slightly more dense/durable material. All together this Tharr pretty damned heavy, but also packed with a veritable ton of muscle meaning he's gonna have a lot of power behind practically any movement he makes.

Coloration is mostly yellow/tan, but does include black feather, red and red in some places as I understand it.

I'm wondering several things, one of which is how much does he weigh exactly? How tall is he in part (at the shoulder of his leonine/griffon body where humanoid torso meets the back of his main body) and in total (top of the head of the humanoid torso). How wide is he from one side of his leonine body to the other? what is his total length from the chest of front of his Leonine body to the end of his tail? Can he angle his humanoid body forwards to increase that length/his reach at all? What is his wingspan from the longest feather to feather (fully extended)? How long are the arm that carry his wings when the feathers are furled or they're being used as hands/digits rather than for flight?

That's all for now. Reading the abilities now.

[yoshua171]

Correction to the above. It seems like he has eight limbs (you keep saying Octopedal), meaning that his leonine body has the back two lion/avian legs/feet and the front two lion legs, whereas his "humanoid" centaur portion has wings and the lion limbs? Or are the wings on the back of his leonine body rather than on the centaur portion?

When he stands on his backmost legs to be bipedal, how tall is he?

[Griffintaur]

@yoshua171

That's quite the accurate synopsis for his appearance. Excellent job. I can understand if it's a bit confusing; there are 2 separate bodies to account for. But you're correct for the most part. Alot of your questions are actually in the appearance section and his dimensions are almost at the top. Probably just got overlooked, but I'll address some things. Wingspan is 90 feet (about 70 when furled into fists). Total length from top of head to the rear of his body is 42 feet (this doesn't include his 20 foot lion tail). Also yes. 8 limbs. The wings count as a pair since they possess bones and are prehensile. They're also not sprouting from his back, but instead from his ribs like a regular bird. And right under is the pair of lion arms. Then the 4 major legs (I use minor and major to distinguish the humanoid and quadruped portions respectively) makes 8 total limbs, though he has 2 tails that have their own uses as well.

Have fun with those abilities of his. Arguably the densest part of the profile. His melee reliance, vast array of limbs and empowerments make him a deathly close ranged combatant, so this should be fun.

[yoshua171]

@Griffintaur Alright, sorry I missed those haha. I'll take a look to make sure I catch anything I missed the first time. Justread through everything except Backstory, which I will read momentarily.

So, in lieu of his overwhelming physical prowess, adaptability, and minor magics--and because in the tournament I used Raelis in his power ended up scaled up in all but the literal sense--I am going to ask for something of a boost for Raelis provided that you think it fair. I wish only for this to even the playing field somewhat.

I have added a hider above Raelis' CS that I have copy-pasta'd below for ease of access in the present moment. Before you read it I'd like to notify you of something that might be interesting to you in regards to the mechanics of Raelis' Devene magic.

Devene magic is barely magical. Rather, what Devene magic allows is for the wielder to manipulate heat/light, rather than for them to actually create it. As a result all heat and light energy are entirely natural and can either be sourced back to their surroundings or from the star/deity that the Asarae worship: Rhay.

I'd think that as a result of this, that Tharraleos would not have to worry about Malefeor's Sorcery since Devene energy is not used to actually deal damage--since it really just grants Raelis or other wielders the capacity to manipulate, channel, and draw forth from Rhay natural heat/light.

For Context regarding the below:

Raelis at base strength/ability can generate up to a maximum of 200 degrees per post (Blade of Rhay generates 80 degrees. Armor can generate 100 degrees. His body can generate 20 degrees in an aura surrounding him).

Disclaimer

For opponents of higher power (High Powered Tier), Raelis' limits are partially surpassed. This is achieved via true empowerment from the very source of his race's magic: Their star/deity Rhay. As such, all of the abilities/amplified equipment and traits below can be considered the result of Rhay bestowing on its Champion the title of "Rhay's Chosen." This title turns the body of the empowered into Rhay's Chosen Vessel, essentially imbuing them with the power of an Avatar.

Acting as a sort of limit break for Raelis' various limitations, becoming Rhay's Chosen Vessel allows him full access to the nanites in his armor. This gifts him with the ability not only to gain precise control and awareness of these nanites, but also gives him access to their systems, turning them into proper sensory apparatus as well as unlocking their ability to gather materials, build things and replicate themselves from surrounding materials. Additionally the heat limitations are upended entirely, making his armor and his body effectively immune to Devene energy's negative effects meaning that not only can he withstand any temperature--no matter how high or low--but that it is effectively impossible to blind him in either total darkness or in situations where light is overabundant. Beyond this he gains greater control of his wing armor, the enchantment becoming threefold as it allows him to gather and pressurize wind, control it, and to manipulate the wing armor even when it is not directly attached to his body so long as Devene energy is in contact with the armor.

The various enchantments, durability, malleability, and regenerative properties of his armor are amplified allowing it to reform itself more easily, to fully resist any temperature as previously mentioned as well as it being able to deform to deal with greater force, and to remain solid to stop puncturing/piercing attacks more easily. Its durability/malleability are essentially doubled or tripled depending on the input of Devene energy. Last among his equipment, the Blade of Rhay becomes far more powerful, capable of generating focused beams of light and amplifying the speed at which heat energy builds within or around it by two to four times depending on the power of his opponent(s), but only to the extent of making the odds equal.

Beyond this Raelis' own ability to generate Devene energy is increased allowing him to effectively amplify, generate, and control heat energy with a higher proficiency than normal. As a result of this he can increase the heat of multiple sources--up to ten--at once with double or triple his normal capacity depending on the power of his opponent.

When empowered he gains the ability to control his biology with a finer degree of control due to his exceptional control of Devene energy as it is channeled through his body via Rhay. The sheer heat of the Devene light also tempers and alters his wings, plumage, and hide essentially turning his skin/plumage into the equivalent of four inch thick leather armor.

It should be noted that the above acts OOCly, meaning that Raelis does not know the exact power of his opponent, just that they are stronger than his normal state. These modifiers will be applied before a fight begins and cannot be modified once combat is initiated unless otherwise negotiations/specifications are made beforehand. I will always ask permission of my fellow combatants and/or judge to use the ability so as to make sure that such is fair.

Most likely all above traits in the Disclaimer would be applied, but any amplification effects would be doubled, rather than tripled or quadrupled, except for perhaps the Blade of Rhay, which I'd ask have its capabilities tripled--but that depends on you. If you'd rather it just be doubled like the other stuff, then that's fine.

[Griffintaur]

@yoshua171

You make quite the point regarding magic. That was thrown in to be a crippling weakness that isn't mental, and with a decent reason conjured with it too. So with that ailment being nullified, I am more than willing to allow your augments, complete with the triple powered blade, honestly even if it wasn't necessary. Reading through that made me like the matchup even more. They'll both inevitably resort to their respective augmentations, and that sounds like a badass time. So if we're both clear on the opposing combatant, I'd say we're ready to get the blood and feathers flying.

Edit

Also, Tharr doesn't use magic at all. His Empowerments use life force energy, kinda like Ki from Dragon Ball (totally not an inspiration or anything.) His psionics are sheer mental strength and his elemental prowess derives from manipulation of the surrounding area, neither of which require spells or Reserves of any kind to use. It'd seem a little contradictory if he could use something he was weak against, although I'm sure he'd be a skilled mage if he could, and now I'm liking the sound of it more.

The Thread it Breathes!

If you don't mind, can I see who you plan to use against Mairyell (Mai for short)?

@yoshua171

I'm still working on the CS. The concept is that the character is a former assassin who uses magic to debuff and blind her enemies, and I'll be throwing in some gnarly mobility boosts as well. Her fighting style is most effective against fighters who are similar to humans. As for my posting timer, I'll be very active until August 7. When that date comes, I'll have to focus on school (they dish out tons of requirements there), and my schedule will be greatly altered. Maybe a post every week would do.

For the battlefield, I'd suggest that you go for something that draws the line between modern and futuristic. I'll explain why after my CS is intact.

[yoshua171]

@ChickenTeriyaki Alright sounds good, tell me when you're done making the character, I'll take a look, and then I'll make our battleground. Yeah a post a week or so sounds totally fine with me :)

I'll be starting up work again a bit after August 7th and completing a big move anyways so that works out ^_^

[Dolerman]

@ChickenTeriyaki if youre still competing in the Arena, would you like a match with me?

[Dolerman]

@ChickenTeriyaki if you have a character ready i'll put them up against either of these two

Dynamo Frokane's Arena Characters

The Feral Abomination

Name: Daxius Vinnerall
Age: ??
Height: 5'9
Weight:: 162 ilbs
Race:Feline Demon Humanoid
Class: Rouge
Appearance:

Weapons: Rune Edge: A large enchanted sword forged from the bones of a chaos dwarf, inside of a cursed volcano, it has the properties of heat and explosive magic that can be used to cause heavy damage, though Dax isnt immune to this energy he must be careful not to blow himself apart. Other then that its a fairly well balanced sword, very heavy but Dax can wield it well with one hand because of his enhanced strength and dexterity.
(picture in main image)

Throwing Knives: Dax carries 25 kunai blades which he can hurl with amazing strength and precision.
Each of these knives are made from silver and blessed steel which can hurt spirits, demons and chaos creatures.


Lasso Claw: Dax has a custom grappling hook which he has modified to not only climb tall structures but to use in battle, his training allows him to use it as a lasso or as a long range flail, the rope is about 12 feet long an is made from elven twine making it very strong and impossible to cut with normal weapons, it as also very lightweight and resistant to fire. The 'claw' on the end of the grappling hook is fierce looking steel double pronged hook which can cause very painful injury if it sinks into flesh.


Physical Abilities: Dax is skilled adventurer with superhuman strength and agility which allow him to traverse the dangerous areas he usually travels through. He has all the nessecary skills in parkour, wall climbing, grappling hooks, jumping, swimming which allow him to get through almost any area with relative ease.

Weapon Skills:
Dax's sword fighting is mostly self taught, but he has honed his style over 5 years and his demon blood allows him to pick up fighting abilities a lot quicker then normal humans, in a word he was born to fight well, and he does. He employs a very freeform style of fighting which allows him to combine his amazing strength and nimble reflexes to be constantly moving and keep his opponents off guard, he has an excellent sense of balance which adds to his formidable swordsmanship, but he was never formally trained with with blade and prefers to avoid 'normal' restricted sword duels as his fighting strength is in his creativity.

Magic:
Daxius has a mid level understanding of necromancy, his demon blood can be traced back to the netherworld tribes, who used worship the undead. As a result he can control most lesser undead beings such as wraiths and zombies. He also with some effort can raise a corpse from the dead to fight for him, though so far he can only control 3 at a time, anymore will be freinzied and attack him. The corpses will be roughly half as skilled as they were when they were living and at best make decent distractions. For some reason he is much better at controlling skeletons and can animate a full set of bones to become quite a fearsome fighter. But can only control one at a time.

(Tier 4)

The Crimson War-Princess

Name: Rodetta The Red
Age:26
Height:5'10
Weight:158 lbs

Appearance:
Abilities & Background: Rodetta is the 4th daughter of the Warlord King Ifream the Red. A noble yet ruthless conquerer who bonded his spirit and body to that of an ancient dragon, which made him incredibly powerful but aggressive and hungry for glory in battle. His daughter Rodetta inherited some of her father's fire dragon abilities, and she works as the princess guard (although she is a princess herself) for her 3 older sisters. Of all of the children, her love for battle is greatest, even equal to her vicious father.

Pyromancy
As an heir to the Dragon-King she has an innate natural ability with fire magic. She can hurl fire balls, cover herself in a flaming aura, raise the temprature of an indoor room (the smaller the more effective), and at her very best levels of exertion she can create explosive magic fire bombs which she can detonate and also thrust her hands into the earth, and sprout a very small volcano to sprout and erupt underneath her opponent, though the greater range this is done at the weaker the attack will be. It must be noted that she can still be damaged by others fire magic but is immune to her her own and natural fire.

Dragon's Blood
Although technically a human, she has the spirit and blood passed down from her father which gives her the ability to telepathically speak to dragon's and know where they are. Also able to call upon smaller drakes and baby dragons to fight by her side(but only for short intervals). She is also resistant (but not immune) to most dragon fire breath. Her most special abiltiy is one that not even her father can do, she is able to sprout dragon wings from her back, in times of great stress, and take flight, although this is at the cost of her human reasoning, and her normal high levels of skill and strategy will be traded for a natural dragon's rage. Although she benefits from a short burst of superhuman strength, she will not be able to use any weapons that a human would, simply preferring to rely entirely on fire magic.

War Princess:
Since age 10 Rodetta has been training to do her bloodline proud as a spirit of war. She is an expert with the shield and longsword combination and is also very adept with the Pike, Great-sword, and Battle Axe. She has little training with projectile weapons as she usually relies on her fire magic, but has a base level of skill with the crossbow. She is also a master strategist, experienced in leading army units, but specializes in small attack forces of 2-6, she is prideful but is also surprisingly good at working in a team.She is in amazing fighting shape and has trained her human body to be a weapon, she is tough, agile and has the will of a dragon, which means she is absolutely impossible to intimidate. She can also speak in dwarvern and chaos tounges, as part of her research into possible enemy tribes.

Equipment:
Dragonpride and Ironcrest
Her sword dragon pride has no real magic qualities but it is made of silver and mythrill, which makes it consistently sharp, and able to hurt werewolves, vampires and ghouls with great effectiveness. Its material compound makes the sword nigh unbreakable. The weapon is perfectly balanced for Rodetta's strength and dexterity.

Ironcrest is made from Iron and Dragonsbone, which makes it also nearly impossible to break, and has fire proof qualities. Although quite heavy, Rodetta is highly trained with this particular shield and uses its weight for heavy offensive sheild bashes to break her opponents stance and open the guard.

Red Plate Armour
Her armour is made from the kingdom's finest steel and has been woven with dragonscale, which makes it very light weight and tough, though the armour has many weak points to allow for mobility and can be damaged because of its low density. The trade off is that she can move in the armour as if she was wearing nothing at all because of its easy access.

Caltrops
Small multi-spikes that she carries that she can throw on the ground to injure opponents as they walk or run over them. Good tool for assailaints that are chasing her. Rodetta's armour protects her feet from these.

Royal Javelin Of The Red
This is a spear that Rodetta fights with while her sword is sheathed. Its has the same properties as her blade but is at its most effective when thrown because of its magical ability to 'home in' on living creatures, the stronger the life force the more powerful the tracking abilites. Of course even without this ability, Rodetta is a very accurate with a javelin anyway.
