It's the distant future. Humans have traversed the nearby planets. On Jupiter, we found a unstable element called skilltonium. It's atomic structure changed to fit with any other element put in the nearby area, so it is highly valued. When we surfaced the first batch of skilltonium, it bonded with the dirt and iron, creating fiends, who were deformed and presummed brainless. But then it caught sight of the skilltonium, and consumed the first miners and the first batch. From then on, we've been in a war with these creatures, utilizing the skilltonium to bolster our own abilities.
The tech.
When earth's natural resources started to dwindle, we found a way to convert earth to data. We did so, and now earth contains portals in and out of this data world. Only things not created by the data can travel through these portals, because anything made of data dissipates into the portal itself, destroying it. Because everything on earth is data, anything is possible on it. As such, it became a "Hub world" of sorts, for humans to come back to, to relax, sell treasures found on other planets, and to socialize.
The planets.
Mercury - fiends traveled to this planet, overtaking the human population and enhancing their fire related abilities.
Venus - tamed by humans, but inhabited by fiends here and there, this world has become a new earth of sorts. Most human here dislike the data world of earth.
Mars - dubbed, "the discovery planet," tests of all sorts are done here by scientists, because it offers a wide variety of habitats. Fiends here have been tamed, and occasionally work with the scientists.
Jupiter - Battles rage day and night here. Fiends and miners do war continuously for the precious skilltonium. Only for the brave of heart or dumb of mind.
Saturn - only inhabited by fiends, due to the fact that the rings somehow block out portals. No one knows what happens here or beyond this point.
The skilltonium.
Skilltonium had an interesting effect on humans. It bonds with them, and changes their abilities, their skills, based on the personality of the bonded human. Small doses slightly enhance anything, but large doses tend to cause insanity, giantism, and rage. These behemoth humans are forced to leave earth. If they retain any brain function, they tend to become rulers of fiend clans.

When you ask, a perky woman calls over from a room on your right, "Over here!" You walk over, as commanded, "Hai! I'm Zell, and he's Zain! We're brother and sister, and we run this small institution! You can train against AI 'players', AI 'fiends', or me for a tough challenge! My brother may be ready to fight soon, we just finished a tourney."

"Fair enough. Go through, I have a scenario set up."
You walk through the portal, into a wide open field. Bushes dot the land, but most are too short to be considered easy cover. Your opponent can be seen through your scope, jumping high and gliding for short times. There are several hilld and dishes not too far from you. One of the things you immediately see is a fissure, straight across the center of the field. What do you do?

You get him with only one of the shots, for 1 dmg (failed die roll). As he nears you see that he has dual pistols. One has a much larger barrel then most pistols, and the other has what looks to be flamethrower mechanics. He'll be on you next turn. You: 100/100 AI: 79/100
