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)

Why do you use hyphens as quotation marks?

Oh, and I use .'s for quotation too, because the Lady is talking weird... Hmm, I am just creative with quotation.
Bah.

Why do you use hyphens as quotation marks?
I use apostrophes for Yazz. It's just a little thing we do, that makes it easier to figure out who's talking when we RP, and it eventually becomes the written indication of their voice...
I usually change to proper quotation marks in stories, though... But it's a habit. Isn't it?
'Yep.'
-Guess so...-

I could lie and say that it doesn't really annoy me, or that your reasons for doing it make sense to me, but really, that ranks up their with calling ellipses [spelling?] "dot dot dot things". Oh well, I'm just a grammar Nazi, I wouldn't worry about me too much.

I'll stop, then... But well, doing so because it is a rpg and not a story... But guess it is just annoying for people who have no mental hearing...
Oh good, I need to describe vioces then too!!...
And how it sounds, because "..." is not good... So much work.... so much... ...

Yeah, not much sympathy here. Not because I don't understand how much work you put into this, but rather because I have no idea what hyphen quotations sound like, and I never thought to ask because I didn't know that they sounded different in any way until now. Regardless, I don't intend to start a flame-war with the DM over this, so I will leave well enough alone.

Well, it saves time when RPG'ing, and honestly, having to always mention who says what REALLY destroys the flow of a good talk in such a thing. So if you were complaining about this in any other context, I'd back you up 100%. It's technically wrong. But in RPs, it's just a shortcut.

Basically not the right time for it at the moment, unless you want to be the GM for the last couple of rounds...
As said, mere habit... Think of it as different font or something.
Xzeno talks like /this/ to me.. Bah. Forgetforgotforgotten...

Have a good trip, then.
But he could of course be located in a random cell somewhere in the now destroyed city, but since you already made mistakes, if he was to be in the dungeon, I really do not care about those two hours of planning compared to my more than three months of planning, so thank you and baibai.

Thanks I will.

fake banweapon of your choice to use in your next fight.


Whoa. Well, that wasn't in my script, but hey, I might work it in when doing the pages.

I'll post my version of the script when Crimson answers my questions. Pre-wrote it while I was away

Mad at you? How could I be mad at you. You're the one putting in the hard yards of all of us combined, so I'm more than willing to roll with it.

Hey, Cenere, did the replica have to be pale yellow for any particular reason? Because I can think of one but it's definitely not something I'm going to be saying here!!!!!!!

Anyway, will post script on my own thread presently.

Hrm, is it too late to join? I have a character and everything, though I can't decide which one.

If I can join, which character should I use?

Destor- Read my story (amulet) to get to know him

Tyranus- A summoner, Final Fantasy style. Favorite summon: SoulEater.(Made him up as well.) More about him if I can join.

Probably Tyranus, I would make Destor much too overpowered.

So can I join?
