This tournament have been created on the basis of a discussion between Thoadthetoad, Zophia and I. We were just talking about who would win, Strop, the Nergyl Child, Zophia's Hallow or my char. So, who will win, any of you, or none.
----------------------------------------------
-You know this will end up a cliche, right, Ma'm?- The white clad figure turned to look at the lanky young man behind her, her multiple eyes blinking in the light from the sinking sun. She smiles, an eerie smile, before turning her back at the humanoid again. .You should not say such a thing. Words bind, as you remember.. She looked out the window in the tall building, staring blankly at the many fields made for battle in the mixed city. It had been important to the designers that this test would push the contestants to the limit and beyond. -This is not a good idea.- She did not even look at him, did not take his warnings seriously. [b].This will make my Lords happy. New warriors, stronger, different.. -But they don't... They will not belong here. And you know it.- His voice were angry now, but it did not touch her the slightest. .Just wait and see, little Sururrian.. She smiled once again, then waited until the sun had disappeared, and the lights had turned the main streets into rivers of light, and the alleys to dangerous traps of darkness. It was to begin.[/b]

Mixed World Tournament.
This is a Multi Media Tournament. This means that both drawings, writings and mixes will be allowed, as long as it is self made. The first couple of rounds will be used for trying to get to know the city, and fight of any creature that might attack you. The next rounds might end up as a tournament between the contestants, for survival. What will happen next, you will see.
The world is made up by different territories, which you might get to discover soon after arriving. The setting is much like that of a city, but with a twist, a grusome twist. The beast living in this deserted city is something many would hope not to meet even in dreams, along with creatures of imagination and fiction. And of course, there will be other, intelligent traps to get past.
--
They first thing to do is to either write or draw your contestant, with their equipment and pets, if there is any. Describe the contestant, how they are, their powers, strengths and weaknesses. Try to keep it as natural as possible, so your contestant will not be overpowered and without faults, or I will give them penalities sooner or later. Also make a quick describtion or drawing of where they are at the moment before they are called. The arrival I will post as soon as the contestants are submitted.
You have untill Friday the 14th to submit your contestant to this tournament, or at least say that you will join (And is just missing a few details before you can submit)
Well first off I think it is quite necessary that I comment on this part of the strop description.
It tasted of purple.
What exactly does the color purple taste like?I can tell you what orange tastes like,but not purple.Also for Mentorso.
The man clearly had no idea what he was doing. If the man had been escorting Sasquatch, there would be no question whether Sasquatch's bell pepper would be smudged.
Well while I'm slightly glad/flattered/whatever you want to call it, that you used a Sasquatch reference,but one quick question.What do you mean by smudged?
I wouldn't call you an idiot Mentorso,but try to make sure you know what your writing about,before you make your next submission.That way this can be avoided next time around.
Cenere, mentorso is the only one who haven't written a fitting entry (with the exception of a few lines here and there in some of the others, but those were insignificant). So your GM skills are not the reason for this. I think he has just misunderstood a bit. But no blame on mentorso. He just needs to get a better grip of the setting, I'm sure he'll be able to.
But I no information give... Or it is not interesting enough for people to read it. I am suspecting them to only read their own introduction, but might as well be me being paranoid.

Well, I don't think people do that... But, to help mentorso out a little... You remember the introduction you wrote, right blue guy? *armatar reference* This is the story as you are reading it: .It is time.. Her many eyes looked at the horizon, where the last of the light disappeared, leaving the city with only the electricity to save it from the thick darkness. She turned, smiling sweetly at the lad. Her smile were for some a normal, innocent smile, but to him it screamed 'danger'. .Go start the progress, little Sururrian.. He nodded, backing off slowly before turning around, leaving the room. She smiled after him, her face, her entire surface beginning to dissolve, melt and form into a black multieyed pit. It glided out from the white clothes, and stood again, disfigured as it was. .Suffer, my children. Suffer..
The boy wandered through the many dark halls and corridors, hearing the howls and snarls from the rooms on the other side of the wall. There were no door to these rooms, not windows, no exit. Sharp claws scratched the walls, and now and then a bump were heard, as the creatures on the other side tried to enter the corridors were he walked. Funnily enough he felt himself being more safe here than with the multieyed female in the upper room. The sounds got worse with every step he took, with every stair case he walked down.
The summoning had just started as he walking in. The mages did not even look up, but concentrated on catching each of the contestants.
The figure attached to the front of the car smiles, an eerie and far too big smile. Threads of blackness shoots forward, binding and blinding him. When they let go again, he is in a different place, a much different place. Near a wall he sees a flash of light. A flicker...
The flicker slowly formed the figure of a masked person, a male. The blue image raised his head, seemingly looking at the contestants before him. He began talking with a deep tired sigh. -I greet you.- He twitched a little. -Welcome to this test of - abilities. This world will most probably make you cry for your mother, no offense, but if this not make you go crazy or make you cry, then... You have no humanity. No sense.- He looked to the side, taking a deep breath. -The first one to enter the tower is the winner. Before you can do that, you will have to take care of your opponents, in one way or another.- He turned his head at the contestants again, looking directly at them. -If you want to live, then do not enter...- He was cut off. Then the flicker began once again, and he disappeared.
From that off, you are supposed to write how your character, Razar, responds to what he has been told, that he have been taken out of his home world without his consent, and basically the whole eerie mood of the settings. You have no control over the surroundings (there is nothing but the endless walls and the narrow alleyways), and Razar is alone there. So your cool martial arts skills will have to wait for another round. :P
Okay, I'm sorry to cenere. I don't mean to sound like a quitter (acceptance of it) but I feel like I am causing more stress than I am relieving, and I feel bad. I don't think that this contest is working, so I'm sorry, but I will have to withdraw.
I should probably do a FAQ... Hmm, when I am through with this, there will be a thread of "how to make believable characters", if people are interested.
Anyway: Planning the action for the next round, by rolling a dice for most of you, and see who will get to meet the new, powerful monster(s).
Oh, and as Zophia have shown, the piece about your chara is linked to the main story, really, making it a story about every one of you.
@mENTORSO: Nononononono!! Don't do this to meee.... This is new to all of us, and there is plenty of time to screw up, and get help! Please don't leave us? Pretty please??
Why? I don't understand why I am so valuable to this contest when all I seem to be doing is lowering your self esteem (go eat a cookie and some warm milk).
But you write so good TT TT... I hated it when Fst quitted too... You are not lowering my self esteem (not possible, it is too low), but doubting myself a little, since it seems people do not read the stuff I wrote that shold tie it all together, and instead think up something... I would really like to see this work, and I would really like to see it work with you. I will try to guide you, if you are up for it?

The importance lies partly in the number of contestants (16 is easy to make elimination rounds with, it halves so neatly), and partly in, that you are an excellent writer. You just need to figure the world out.
But, if you think it is too much trouble, I think Xzeno might still be interested in taking your place. So if you really wish to withdraw from it, so be it. We can't force you to participate.
It will be a loss, though. I know Strop was hoping to get a showdown with Razar and one of his own characters. :P
