It is the 11th annual World Gunpla Tournament, and the best 128 fighters around the globe have gathered in the heart of the Gunpla Boom, Japan. The prize is not what most would expect though. The Grand Champion will have their own Gunpla of choice featured as the main character for the next Mobile Suit Gundam series. With such an odd prize, this has ensured that only the most extreme and capable of fighters and fans are reaching for the top. The Gunpla Committee has announced that this tournament will also be very diverse in that there will be only a few straight up battles, and that many of tournament battles will feature special rules, clauses, and game modes to ensure there is never a dull moment. A key feature this year will be the various Survival and Team game modes that are to be featured. As with all previous tournaments before, fighters will gain points based on their performance in their matches. Every few rounds, the bottom percentage of fighters will be disqualified from the Championship and sent home. Contestants will be provided with room and board, food vouchers, and a sponsor gifted discount on all Gunpla bought during their time as a participant. Some of the participants were previously enrolled in a summer academy for dedicated Gunpla enthusiasts, and therefore know each other from past experiences.
Never put up a proper IC for this. We plan on starting up soon so I would like to get some new blood in here if possible. Anyone is welcome, so drop by the Link below.

Ball Guy chuckled as the Abyssal's shot glanced off of his Solar Shield. Even in his early days Rou knew the importance of protecting your best assets, so his shield was layered up with plastic boards and metal foil. It wasn't invincible though, as its design had plenty of weak spots to exploit if given the chance. Ball Guy fired up his thrusters to launch him into the sky where he could hopefully recharge in the sun and escape the smoke, while raining down vulcan fire in all directions.
Ball Guy felt the shot resound off of one of his Solar Bits, destroying it as it protected him. He rotated the Solar Shield on his back to fire in the direction the shot came from, expulsing the obscene amount of energy it could store as he rushed towards where the shot came from, sword in hand and vulcans firing.
Ball Guy dismissed the incoming fire by sidestepping. He snapped his fingers as the small panels on his arms and legs opened up and released 6 of his Solar Bits. Ball Guy then unsheathed his Sol Sword from the surf cannon shield to combat the strange gunpla's cane before swinging the superheated blade in a wide arc in front of him.
Where u at @pilot231
The shot from the Abyssal Gundam rocked the board from under the Radiant Rider. Ball Guy adjusted himself as he descended to the ground. This was going to be al all out brawl. He shifted his focus to his attacker. Even though Dani had asked for it, he wasn't going to gang up on her with Alexis. The Radiant Rider backstepped a bit to challenge Sakuya. The indicator told Ball Guy that the Surf Cannon was once again charged and ready.
"So its us now huh?" He jabbed at the Abyssal Gundam before attaching the board to his arm as a shield.

Before Dani had even finished, The Radiant Rider's Surf Cannons had already began charging. Though it was one of Rou's older models, it was still a force to be reckoned with. It had made quite a name back in his hometown. Due to the sheer amount of solar panels on the gunpla, its charge time was nearly a quarter of what the original Double X possessed. It had even been described as being "More Beam Spam than Strike Freedom." Ball Guy cleared his throat as he spoke.
"As you wish."
Then the Surf Cannons began to fire.
"As you wish."
Then the Surf Cannons began to fire.
Name: Rou Gernot
Age: 20
Gender: M
Appearance:
Normal: Rou wears a large black Kamen Rider baseball cap that shades his green eyes and makes his black shaggy hair just down to his nape. He wears a long sleeved button up shirt that is usually left open to show whatever Toku/Anime shirt he has chosen to wear for the day. His dark jeans are a little stained and torn, but still decent.
Nationality: American
Backstory: All his life Rou has loved Tokusatsu heroes and giant robots, especially combiners. He began collecting Super Sentai robots, gunpla and merchandise when he was 8 and his collection is still growing. He can quote Riders, sing theme songs, and name any mobile suit. However, his biggest problem is that he can rarely discuss his hobbies due to his timidness. This was onset by his first gunpla battle at the local hobby shop. Rou built a simple GM to test the waters of the new game. He was stomped and ridiculed for his inexperience, and quickly left the shop and never returned. He longed for companions to help him. Better yet, a team. Despite his trepidation, he attempted to find friends at a different hobby shop. He laid low, but no one really stood out to him. Rou began to only fight matches in private, fearing what the audience would say about his skills.
Struggling to overcome his fear of confrontation and people, Rou discovered that he wasn't too timid if the opponent didn't know who he was. He began planning a cosplay suit to hide his identity, but could not seem to fathom what mobile suit to base it from. Rou surveyed his shelf. He wanted something simple. Zaku? Nah, cliche. BCUE? Too animalistic. His eyes finally rested on something he constantly over looked. The quaint little cannon fodder known as the Ball. It was perfect. Rou's skills were good enough that he could hold his own with such a puny gunpla, ad it fit his hero theme quite nicely. He finished his suit in a week and went to the shop. People stared, but no one knew who he actually was, and it made Rou feel so much more comfortable. "Ball Guy" was what they called him. He didn't win many matches, but he was well known and rather liked, even if he was just acting like a "gaudy super hero". Rou decided that a simple upgrade would not suffice. He needed something extra. Then it dawned on his. What about...extra balls? IF that was the case then he would need a Flash system, and that's something that an ordinary Ball wouldn't be able to handle. Rou brainstormed. Balls were what made him so renowned in his town, he couldn't just stop using one. He crafted for weeks and weeks until he found a solution. The transforming ball! he could still use the Flash system as a Gundam, but still look like a ball. Weeks later, his prototype was complete. In a private match he quickly lost ground, but once he transformed his Ball, his opponent dropped like a rock. Now he just needed to know how to use his backup Balls. Constantly controlling them would be tedious and require immense effort. As he wracked his brain, the Super Sentai show running in the back ground showed a scene of them calling their mecha together. It was miraculous, and it fit Rou's personality perfectly. He was going to make a Ball Sentai. He began winning his local matches, preferring to keep his Ball Squad's ability a secret. It was for only those eyes he thought deserving. Learning of his fame, he was invited to Neilsen Labs to participate, signing up under the guise "Ball Guy", to keep his identity a secret for just a little longer. The suit had become a crutch, but its ability to keep him calm in social situations was invaluable. During his time at Neilson Labs, Rou eventually overcame his fear of being in the spotlight and is now comfortable without the Ball Guy suit, though he still remains a little awkward. In recent years, it is rumored that Rou was the first American to be allowed to learn the arts of the Shingyo School of Gunpla, under Master Chinan.
