Yahtzee

Elementals: Void Assault

Yahtzee stared slack-jawed at Cora for a moment before slowly smiling. He was actually going to get a chance to test his skill to see how he truly compared to the rest of the group. His hands fidgeted at his sides in anticipation however before he could actually speak he saw the light display from Phil and for a brief moment he forgot where he was and everyone around him. Past memories came back as fresh as if he had only just lived through them and his smile faded slightly into a slightly melancholic expression.

Alex stood in the living room with his parents on either side of him. On a circular tea table a cylindrical object wrapped in bright red wrapping paper lay dejectedly on it's side. His parents said something about 'happy' but other than that one word the rest were blurred out in the seeming grey fog of the memory. He stepped forward and reached out with one hand to gingerly hold the present in his hands before slowly pulling off the wrapping paper. The red paper seemed to never end and grew until it covered his vision for a moment before it was pulled away in flurry. Replacing the bleak grey landscape was a brightly coloured tent and everywhere various performers practiced their shows. Clowns fell over and juggled as in the air trapeze artists swung as gracefully as butterflies. His attention was pulled from the scene by his own trainer and he looked into the old man's face before looking down at his own hands. They held matches and he took a breath before grinning and lighting one.

Yahtzee stood back in the present staring blankly into space as he fought to escape the bleak memories of the past. It wasn't that they were sad or bitter and he treasured each one for it's own reasons but they didn't have a place in his life now and he would rather just be rid of them. He couldn't do that though but he could bury them in new ones and with that thought in mind he faced his opponent with a fierce grin.
"...Don't worry about hurting me." He heard her say and he chuckled.
"I'll do my best." He said earnestly. Despite never actually being officially trained in hand to hand combat he still considered himself to have been trained by the best teachers there were: Trail and error. He shifted in position sliding one leg forward and one back to keep his center of gravity higher up then he brought a fist forward and raised it until it was level with his face. "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages welcome to tonight's showing of fist on face!" He said cockily ripping off the ringleader's speech. He lunged forward swing his fist back and spinning his body slightly for added momentum and as his fist snapped towards Cora's jaw he focused his power and released it. Instead of only his fist combusting like he had planned his lack of control meant his entire body became enveloped in flame with an explosion that sent him flying backwards towards the mouth of the cave. He hit the ground heavily and actually rolled before he could get to his feet again still covered in flames. "Alright then, round two!" He sprinted towards Cora and leapt bringing his fist towards her face once more although this time he had the added benefit of his body being one flaming projectile.

I know the fight between Wil and Cora isn't over yet but I just my post so that it sort of went past the present point of the RP. I tried to keep it as balanced as possible I just hope it's alright. :)

Elementals: Void Assault

Yahtzee watched with growing fascination as Wil and Phil fought. "Holy..." He trailed off without even finishing. His jaw literally dropped slightly as he saw the level of control the others had over their abilities and if he was honest with himself he felt a small twinge of jealousy in him at the others mastery of their respective elements but that only would serve to drive him forward. After meeting these people and seeing how much they had been hurt before by the vygorns in the past he wanted to become the best there was and prevent anything like that from ever happening to him or to them while he was around. As his mind wondered his face split into a wide grin as he craned forward trying to see what was happening in greater detail. The sparring match wasn't long an he grew in excitement when Cora challenged Wil. He hadn't been given any real evince but he had a hunch that she was probably the strongest one here an he knew she used ice like he used fire. Briefly he imagined how a mach between him and her would play out an he could barely contain himself. It would have to be against her if he wanted to spar as his own powers were more unrestrained than the others and he didn't want anyone to get hurt and Cora should be able to prevent that.

That was no guarantee that he would actually get a chance though and Yahtzee knew it. He was still the newest member here and it might be best for him to take a backseat for now and simply watch and see what he could pick up from the others techniques. He had seen how Phil had made a solid staff of light and he made a mental note to ask about making his own element into a solid. He watched ensuing fight between Wil an Cora with interest and when it ended he stood up applauding enthusiastically. "That was awesome!" He said loudly as he looked at both of them grinning widely "I can't do anything as cool as what you guys can do but I can still sort of fight." He shifted his weight from foot to foot in anticipation. "I would appreciate anything you could show me." He gave Cora a meaningful look as if asking her permission directly.

Rise of Humanity!

Hey all sorry for not posting in a while. Things are just getting really heavy irl and I'm not sure when they'll settle down. I'll keep an eye on everything on my phone but that doesn't make it any easier to post :( While I'm gone I am electing Blox to be GM. If that's alright with him/her of course. Anyway I hope this goes on splendidly and hopefully I'll be able to post later on. In the meantime just assume Alex got abducted by an ET strike or something.Have fun!

Rise of Humanity!

Damn I feel busy. If there's a problem with a cs I'll point it out sharply like if not then assume the character is accepted. I'd like to hear the idea you have for the RP so please feel free and that goes for everyone.

Rise of Humanity!

It's the latter DX I sort of got behind on keeping up with the OOC. When I get to a computer and off my phone I'll load your character into the main post.

Rise of Humanity!

Alex smiled a little as Beau an Todd introduced themselves although his eyes widened slightly as he heard Beau speak about his powers. "So there are others." He said to himself under his breath as he buried his hands in his pocket. It seemed like a good idea to take into account everyone's skills and weapons while they waited to see if there were going to be any other arrivals although he did find himself rapidly losing patience with the situation. He was on edge and anxious to leave. It was about damn time that the ETs got some overdue payback for the atrocious crimes they had committed. The anticipation was making him fidget and he kept checking the time as he waited hoping that if he simply stayed quiet things would just happen. As it was it seemed that Beau, who had first introduced himself, was going to be the natural unelected leader although considering they were all supposedly strangers it hardly seemed to matter. If this was a hoax they were all in it together and if it wasn't then there was a mission to undertake.

"Does everyone here have powers?" Alex asked suddenly without thinking it through. "I do and so does Beau but what about everyone else?" He looked around pointedly. "Whoever sent that envelope must have reasons for choosing us and I don't know about all of you but I'm not exactly a fighter." He said as he grew slightly annoyed by the anonymity of the whole situation. "The only thing we really know is that close by there is a building filled with ETs and we're supposedly able to take it down. Does anyone here actually know who these things are from?" He asked although he assumed that no one did. Secret's were the rebel's main weapon and it was one they kept finely oiled and at the ready for use in any upcoming battles.

Oh my hat! Sorry 'bout that.

I have now posted although to be honest this RP sorta slipped my mind but thank you for the reminder! I'm really glad not to miss out on this.

Adventures of space pirates (S[ace pirate crew rp)

Yahtzee hunched over the large slowly spinning engine in the bowels of the ship. A protective helmet that was attached to his suite covered his face. Normally he hardly needed it but he was trying something new and the thought alone had made him grin fiercly underneath the visor as sparks pattered against it like particularly violent raindrops. One hand was against a stationary bit of railing and the other was tightly holding a small gun-shaped device that was intermittently shooting out small, weak lasers into the engine itself. A small shake ran through the ship but he ignored it an kept working. After about half-an hour of what looked like simply holding that position he moved away from the engine an pressed a couple of buttons and pulled a lever. At first nothing happened but then the engine started to speed up ever so slightly and he gave a satisfied grunt before pressing a small button on the side of his neck that lowered the helmet into his suit. "That should do-" His musing was interupted by a small alarm coming from his wrist and he glanced at the screen there that normally simply showed the time and date. Now it had red writing over it that simply read 'Game night!'

It had completely escaped his mind and Yahtzee cursed as he turned and hurried out of the engine room casting one last forlorn look at all his hard work before continuing along. It took him another few minutes before he actually reached the room. As he arrived he heard voices and slowed his pace slightly.
"...survival to be less than three percent." That sounded like dagger. He had always liked the AI as he thought that it was the only thing that ha as much knowledge of the mechanics of the ship as he did.
"Don't worry Dagger, my flying can totally raise that percentage up!" He heard Tempo chime in and he smiled slightly to himself as he entered the room.
"Also if you include the enhancments I just made on the engine's stabilizer and projector output I'd say we nearly doubled our chances." He said with a slight air of cockiness as he walked in. "Sorry I'm late. I was... distracted." He grinned warmly as he pulled up a chair and sat down. As the conversation wore on he relaxed and laughed at Hide's challenge. "I'll take on that bet." He said still grinning. He wasn't a big drinker but right now he felt as though he could take on anyone at anything although in this case he would probably come out worse for wear.

Rise of Humanity!

Alex looked around at the people that emerged from around the small clearing. It surprised him how many there actually were and he couldn't help but snort in amusement at the idea of taking all this people and having a picnic instead of actually having a fight. "I'm uh... Alex." He said awkwardly looking around him at all the people gathered here. He wondered if any, like him, had any sort of 'special' abilities. The thought gave him reason to pause. He knew the kind of damage that could be done with his power and he seen one or two others able to do things that should have been impossible but the results were often both dangerous and fatal for the user. Personally he didn't like his own chances for survival if he had to use his powers but aside from a few types of guns he never carried with him he was practically weaponless except for his own skill with his hands and that was still a force to be reckoned with especially when combined with his power.

Looking up at the sun Alex guessed that there was probably a little under an hour before they were supposedly meant to move out and take down an entire ET landing base and looking around at everyone he found himself surprised at the level of confidence he felt with their chances. No one here looked inept in any way and by the time they left only more would join their small force. It gave him some measure of hope for the future if all these people were as capable as they looked. "I guess we wait for a bit before actually leaving then?" He asked. "Maybe more people will show up between now and when that note said we should leave." He sighed and moved over to a nearby tree and leaned heavily against it as he waited expectantly.
