Story Fight

I'm not sure about the book, but in the movie I remember the sword fighting scene at the end.

What might help Memalade is if you simply enter a thread with someone and have them teach you the basics. That way you could develop a character based off of that if you so chose. But more importantly, as Skally said, you learn how to properly fight someone.

So, the account above me is also one of mine.

I had created it because I forgot the Password to this one. But seing as I recovered it I will be using this acount and will simply transfer this character sheet to where I store the rest of them.

How about a duel between Alphonse and Shin? They are for lack of a better term, near identical in a lot of ways.

It might be interesting to have a match. I do not see them fighting to the death, but something to push them to their limits for sure.

A deathbattle could be a lot of fun. But, I'm with Descartes, I say no to the choreographed fights. Takes the fun out of it.

Well, I'll take over then. I have the time and drive to complete the process.I've posted my idea for a game on the board already. However, if the majority of the group would like to do/play something different than I'm all ears.

Story-Based Arena

Good afternoon everyone!

I have to say, I like the arena that’s set up, though I've an itch to create my own. Just not sure what the general populaces feel is on tournaments and if the effort I put into it would be worth the return. So, I'd like to propose my setting for said tournament and if I feel confident enough about the response I'll go ahead and work away at it.

First, the setting would not be the multiverse that we all know and love. I would create a setting in a very sand-box like medieval fantasy world. Reason for that being; A) I want to rule out guns and advanced technology, B) I can create a universal system for magic/supernatural abilities that assures everyone is on even footing, and C) I find the tier sort of system that’s currently in place to be less than ideal, therefore everyone would be on the same 'tier' in this.

Second, putting aside the story for now and focusing on the mechanics of the tournament I believe that limiting the setting to the Fantasy/Medieval type but keeping it a sand-box will allow people to become creative with their characters origins. I don't want to say 'no you can't play this character', but rather 'I like what you did here, but let’s change X so it fits in with Y.'

Third, I won’t be taking part in the tournament directly. I'd control NPC's and if anyone wanted to have a 'thread' between a fight in the Advanced RP area I would down for that. There might be the occasional special match where one of the contestants in the tournament (or several), would fight some particularly nasty beast.

Fourth, magic and any other supernatural ability will have a drawback. I'm a big believer in the 'nothing is free' train of thought. There is no straight benefit/power without it costing something in return. The strength of said ability being directly proportionate to its drawback.

Anyways that’s just what I’ve been kicking around and wanted to garner interest before I put any more work into the story and specific rules.

Alphonse looks like an awesome match for Nicoli if you're game.

@ImportantNobody Infinite Speed.

You do realize you would literally tear a hole in reality with something like that.

You would break down physics on a fundamental level with literally infinite energy.

Also, how does a character even GET infinite speed beams?
