It is 2140, five years after a large asteroid hit the Earth. You live in a cave under what used to be Florida, but the asteroid resulted in mass extinction, leaving few survivors. Fortunately, transportation was automated over 100 years ago, and replicators (like in Star Trek) were invented about 50 years ago. You are in your cave when an alarm sounds. You turn the cave's TV on, and one of the other survivors announces:
For the past year, we have been performing tests outside of our cave. With today's analysis, we have determined that the Earth's atmosphere is safe for humans again. As a result, we are forming a new United States in what used to be Dayton, Ohio. Unfortunately, someone reprogrammed the automated transportation system, which means you will have to go through 5 gladiatorial arenas before you get to the New United States. These arenas are located in what used to be the following cities:
Orlando, Florida
Atlanta, Georgia
Knoxville, Tennessee
Lexington, Kentucky
Cincinnati, Ohio
In each arena, you will have to fight battle robots and other survivors. Four survivors from each arena will be allowed to continue traveling, while the others will be enslaved by the arena. All survivors are encouraged to go to Orlando to begin the pathway to the New United States. To do this, find a car and type in Orlando, FL, then press the Go To button, and it will take you to the arena in Orlando.
You then leave your cave in search of a car. You find one and do what the announcer instructed. The car then takes you to an arena, which has large text reading "Post Apocalyptic Arena of Orlando". Complete the character sheet below to continue.

Other Notes:
The stuff in parentheses on the character sheet is directions. Make sure to remove the parts in parentheses except for the skill you choose. Some parts will be filled in or modified by me after you submit a character sheet. Some modifications will be based on what I fill in, while others will be any corrections I make to your character sheet. Anyone can join at any time, but I'd like to keep it to a maximum of 6 players.
Combat System:
When a combat begins, post 3 actions. An action is either the use of a skill or a normal attack. Unless the skill is a support skill, a healing skill, or a magic attack, any skill you use is an attack with your weapon, modified by whatever the skill does. A normal attack does the damage listed on your character sheet with no mana cost. Damage reduction is a percentage (i.e. with 5% damage reduction, if you were hit with 20 points of damage, you would only take 19), and rounding rules are used (i.e. with 3% damage reduction, if you were hit with 20 points of damage, that would be reduced to 19.4, which rounds to 19; however, with only 2% damage reduction, 20 points would be reduced to 19.6, which rounds up to 20). HP and MP are regenerated at the end of each battle.

A few things:
1) You still need to select one of the skills, which can be found in the OP.
2) For the stats in the top half of the character sheet, base stats count as points. I have corrected your character sheet.
3) I will now get the weapons ready, but it might take some time. While I do that, you should decide which of the 3 Mage skills you want to start with and add it to your character sheet. Once your skill is selected, you are ready to select a weapon.

I added a % sign to Damage Reduction because that stat is a percentage (see the Combat System section of the OP). Anyway, you still need to select a weapon before you enter the arena.

I adjusted your stats based on your armatar and corrected your HP and MP. Now all you need to do is select a weapon. In case you were wondering, all skills involving a weapon attack work with both melee and ranged weapons.

I moved the damage to the Damage entry and modified it according to your Dexterity. Since your character sheet is ready for the first fight (remember, you don't get armor for the first fight), here is your first opponent:
Shootem Bot
worth 10 XP
HP: 15/15
MP: 7/7
Damage: 2-4
Chance to Avoid: 1%
Damage Reduction: 1%
In this RPG, you post 3 actions in one post during a combat. Your best move is obvious, but go ahead and make a post so I don't have to double post. Also, I am considering rebalancing the mechanics, so you may see some changes in your character sheet in the future.

Battle: Nivlac vs Shootem Bot
Nivlac: 30 HP
Shootem Bot: 15 HP
According to a random process, Nivlac goes first.
Nivlac does 7 damage with a normal attack. Shootem Bot is at 8/15 HP.
Nivlac avoids Shootem Bot's attack.
Nivlac does 10 damage with a normal attack, killing Shootem Bot.
------------------------------------------------
You gained 10 XP from the Shootem Bot, which has been added to your character sheet. Your character sheet is ready to add armor, but I have not added the armor yet.
GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I have made some changes to how the stats work. The stats now work as follows:
Strength: (increases the damage of melee weapons by 5% per point; also increases damage reduction by 1% per point)
Dexterity: (increases the damage of ranged weapons by 5% per point; also increases the chance to avoid by 1% per point)
Constitution: (increases your HP by 5 per point; you also gain 10 HP per level; also increases the effectiveness of healing skills by 5% per point)
Intelligence: (increases your MP by 2 per point; you also gain 5 MP per level; also increases the damage of magic attacks by 5% per point)
Because of these changes, the character sheets now look different, so they will be posted below:
