Huzzah, thanks for the acceptance! I'll post either tonight or tomorrow.
A bit late after I expressed interest previously, eheh. ^^.

Name: Ran Hoshigane

Gender: Female

Age: 22

Appearance: "Oho, ready for a bout?"

Can Manipulate Qi/Ki?: Yes.

Specialization: (Only fill in if above is a 'yes') Soulbinder

Abilities (if any): Ran is a practicioner of the "Flowing Sword Palm" school whose style is blend both swordsmanship and empty-handed strikes into one viable style- to be able to use the sword like a fist and the fist like a sword. In layman's terms, they're basically able to switch seamlessly between armed and unarmed combat in an instant to deal with the changing situation. As a result of such a style, their philosophy is to "bend as the reeds in the wind so as to not be broken like the rigid trees", where they strive to keep their opponents off-guard and parry their blows rather than outright block and use subtle actions, stances, and movements to chip away at their strength and position them into a disadvantageous spots. Considered to be a "soft" style, the Flowing Sword Palm school is inherently reactive and specializes in counterattacks that use the opponents own force against them much like aikido and tai chi. Movements of the sword and hand are smooth and flowing like water- wearing down and passing through obstacles. Using ki only serves to make the actions more fast and flexible while improving the power behind the blow, enough to shear through stone and lesser metals with sufficient momentum. Besides this style, Ran's sword has the soul of a yuki-onna dwelling in it that allows it to exude a freezing aura upon request that'll help hinder the enemy's movements by chilling objects upon impact with each successive strike only amplifying the effect.

Personality: Ran as a person could be described as laid-back and open-minded. She simply enjoys life as is with a respectful exuberance, relishing new experiences and meetings. Calm and companionable, the ronin is one who is rather easy to get along with. Though she is mild, she does have a strong sense of morals while holding a pragmatic mindset during such situations.

History: A wandering ronin that loves to explore the land, Ran had learned how to fight from her own glob-trotting journey. Taking bits and pieces from other styles here and there, she experimented and crafted the Flowing Sword Palm school from a variety of sources such as lessons and battles. Currently, she is continuing her journey to amass enough experience to create a stable foundation for her martial arts style and plans to settle down in the future to teach it to the common people to help give them a modicum of safety and pride.

The girl's body shook heavily from the boy's acceptance, trembling as though she had been bearing a great burden that had just disappeared and was now trying to adjust to the newfound lightness. Upon her straightening up, Naoki would find that tears were falling down from her eyes in torrents. It was probably the first time someone saw such a blatant display of "tears of happiness", so great was the martial artist's determination to be the best partner that she was moved to such an extent. "I won't let you down and will strive my best to be the best partner I can be! If I ever do so, I'll run around the academy grounds ten times with rocks tied to my back!" And now it was clearly shown that the girl had very strange ideas on how to interact with people due to her eccentric upbringing.
Right, thank you those of you still interested. If it's worth anything, I'll try to keep the game running and focus my attention on those characters remaining since there's less people to keep an eye on. I can't guarantee quick GM posts, but they'll be coming.
Yeah, people not posting is a big part of the reason really. If enough people commit to this game again then I'll get it up and running once more.
I am definitely suer duper interested in this! You have no idea how much I wanted a game like this!

Startled by the sudden cheery voice that came up near her, Sakie all but jumped up like an electric current was passing through her frame. Upon landing, instead of the cool and collected grace that a martial artist like her was supposed to have, the girl was simply put, a hotbed of nervousness and fidgeting. Her arm and hands spasmed and made signs that no one knew how to interpret, her face was in a caricature of extreme shock, and her mouth was babbling out sentences that seemed to be an endless deluge of apologies for slights that she didn't even do. After this was over with, the girl took a deep breath to stabilize her rapidly beating heart and then suddenly bowed down at the waist at a perfect 90 degree angle towards Naoki. "I-it's a pleasure to meet you, p-partner! Please t-take care of me! U-um if that isn't too presumptuous..." High strung didn't even begin to describe the shy girl, not int the least considering her words came out in a breathless squeak.
Just a quick note, everyone. The fantasy chunk might be considered the same place for both heroes and villains, but it's still roughly the size of a small country so they shouldn't be meeting each other quite yet. Opposite sides and all, eheh.
With his attention concentrated on the tense winding down as it were, he could be forgiven for not reacting fast enough and having a tiny girl meet him in a most physical manner. "W-wha... B-but you're the one that walked into me..." Adopting a hurt pouting look that could make a puppy jealous, Negi nonetheless stumbled backwards and fidgeted as he looked over the girl to see if she was alright. Upon finding that there was no harm done from her all but smacking into him, the boy heaved a sigh of relief as he scrambled forward and held out a hand to help Chamo get back on her feet while holding his staff in the other. For some reason, the girl reminded him of those pink-headed twins from his class.
Attacked Village


As things were getting rather frantic in the melee and swerved towards the side of the newly introduced would-be heroes, the mohawked raiders' dim brains found that yes, they were the ones being routed and getting the literal stuffing beaten out of them in some cases. Instead of retreating though, the idiots simply grew angrier and continued to try to mob everyone with muscles and violence- something that only served to send them through the metaphorical meat grinder as the majority of their numbers became either taken down or outright killed. Ranma found himself a bit uneasy that there was so much death going on, but swallowed his distaste and focused on the fight. He simply broke bones and gave concussions, unable to truly step into the threshold of actually taking lives for the moment.

That was a large bellow emanated out from what looked like the granary, like a bull was roaring through a megaphone. The sturdy wooden doors were smashed outwards with such force that they even smashed their way through two mooks and a couple of trees, propelled by a booted foot that seemed to be two sizes up from the size a regular man could achieve naturally. Stepping out from the depths of the grain stores was professional wrestler Hulk Hogan a giant blond man with dark skin and a rather eye catching mullet and mustache chops combo along with a cross-like tattoo emblazoned upon his dark skinned forehead. The guy was also inordinately big and broad, looking more buff than the bull he sounded like. "I step out for just a few moments and you pieces of trash are getting your keisters kicked about by women and children!"

Ranma goggled at the giant man for a moment, finding him alarming in several ways as the giant guy was performing theatrical movements like waving his arms to a silent audience and flexing his pecs all the while upbraiding his by this point rather out of it subordinates. "Alright, so you all messed with the rest. But now can ya handle the best?!" Ripping off his shirt simply by flexing, the literal giant then beckoned them forward while looming ominously in the background. "I fear no man, no beast or evil, brother! Well let me tell you, brother!" His theatrics got even more offputting as an aura of palpable power emanated from him, showing that he wasn't tooting his own horn. "Watcha gonna do when Baskamania gets ya?!"

Thus roaring this out, the dark giant threw himself off the ground and somehow spun in such a way that he was like a bullet tearing through space with the keen sound of the very air itself being sliced. Hurried jumping out of the man's range, Ranma saw the guy actually tunneling through the thick trunks of the surrounding woods finally stopping, the man's arm outstretched and supporting him off the ground in a 45 degree angle. The trees he passed through seemed to have a hole bored through them like they were drilled with excavation equipment, and fine sawdust could be seen drifting through his giant hand as the now named Bask stood up with a manic gleam in his eyes. "So this is the power of Gourmet Cells... My martial arts, they've reached a new level... I just have to eat and eat and I'll grow stronger..." Grunting with desire, Bask hulked out and took a running start towards the Players, this time dragging the very tree he had bored into like it was a baseball bat and swinging it at them with such fervor that the very air pressure blew all leaves in the surrounding ten meters away in a minor dust storm, the raider's muscles bulging like squirming snakes from the exertion.
