[OOC] Street Samurai

[GingerBoi123]

I've mentioned the Neon Nights in my CS now, but I probably won't get an actual post out until later today (GMT). @Gisk does this mean all the CS's so far are good to go?

[Gisk]

Yeah, all characters are good.

[GingerBoi123]

@GiskWant us to chuck them in the CS tab?

[unicorgi]

*literally chucks character into the cs tab*

[GingerBoi123]

@GiskThis gonna be a wierd one but what day of the week is it in IC?

[Gisk]

Please do put all characters in the CS tab.

@GingerBoi123 Uh, Thursday.

[GingerBoi123]

@GiskAlright, guessing the club scene won't be that active on a Thursday? xD

[Gisk]

So apparently schoolgirls with high tech samurai gear is it's own genre, so I'm canonizing a new "gang."

Kyoko School for Girls. Originally a private school meant to cater to Burokun's relatively small upper class population.
Since the trouble with the Oni, they offered a kendo based self defense class, which bloomed into a popular sport. After a special fluff piece in Street Samurai, an surge of internet popularity spurred many of them to take their swords to the street.

They've gained a sort of "neighborhood watch" status and is the only Ronin gang that is acting legally.

[Zetsuko]

uh, hullo there

Chimera

Name: Nikolai/Ivan/Dmitri
Alias: The Chimera
Allegiances: Solo, for now
Style: Fast/Strong/Tough
Weapons: Katana and Wakizashi/kanabō War Club/Naginata
Special Abilities: "Shadowsteps"- an art where The Chimera appears to teleport in a puff of black smoke while switching fighting styles to confuse his opponent. In reality it is an active-camo system and a smokescreen used by the brothers to keep up the illusion that the trio is a single highly-skilled warrior.

@Gisk
i'm done with my character

[Spike]

@Gisk Hmmm I'd like to start my own gang. We'd be an anarchy where all the members have equal say.

[GingerBoi123]

@Gisk So how did you want this fight to go down? Should we roll them dice, do a collab or whatever?

[Gisk]

Dice'll come first, so we know the outcome. I think I'll share the roll only with the people involved at the time.

And then we'll do the fight scene however the players fighting want. I'm okay with a collab, if you wanna move it into PM.

Also, dammit, the colors are messed up for some reason.

Also also, I don't expect most fight posts will be that long, they'll probably be exchanges of a couple sentences at a time. to keep the action even between the characters. I don't like it when one person spends three paragraphs on their move, when all they're doing is blocking.

Also also also: @Spike Sounds good, I like to imagine they gather in a parking garage or warehouse or something and just everyone is yelling what they think about the topic at hand.

@unicorgi The picture on your CS is borken, if you could take a look at that.

@Zetsuko Ah man, I really like the three brother thing. It's a little weird for balancing when I'm trying to make fights fair, cause the "character" can switch styles at the drop of a hat, but I think we'll figure it out as we go, because it's honestly pretty cool and I don't want that to go to waste.

@sassy1085 Sweet, love the picture! Does she fight with a reverse grip, or is that just the picture you happened to find?

Everyone can feel free to move characters to the CS page, and also to post when ready.

Don't feel the need to pile on to things already happening, you can totally start new scenes.

[GingerBoi123]

@GiskCool, just send me a PM whenever you wanna collab/sort out the results. I'm free for a good few hours tonight and even earlier tomorrow.

[Gisk]

Just sent a PM.

If anyone else is gonna jump into that fight, let me know so we can work it out.

[unicorgi]

The picture is all fixed diddly fixed!

[sassy1085]

@Gisk
just the picture i happened to find

[Gisk]

I'm going to include two more things to the CS. Well, I'm going to add one and modify one.

Mask: Ronin are largely an illegal movement, and most of them use at least some kind of mask, helmet or other obscuring article. If a mask is pictured in the photo ref, feel free to omit.

Sword: I'm gonna call it optional, but I think it would be cool if se had picture refs for their swords too. To add personality. I have a lot on the pinterest board.
