(Before bothering to read on, know that this is a Battle RP, and it has rules that some of you may not like that much...).

The Story -

It exists on a plain of dimensions entirely different from our own, built by a race of beings long since gone from the history of the multiverse. No one knows when it was created, no one knows how it was made...they only know why it was created: for battle.

Many people gather here once every thousand years (993 years, actually, but a thousand sounds cooler), seeking to test their might and skills in combat. The main arena is a simple battlefield, stretching as far as the eye can see, littered with the debris of a once-great and massive church. Fallen columns, broken statues, shattered stained glass windows...and religious symbols that are no longer recognizable, nor were they ever. What was once the holiest of places is now the home site for the epic wars that take place among it.

However, this desecrated church is not the only place where warriors fight each other. The "Colosseum", as it's called, is the size of a planet, and has numerous teleports to traverse the distances. It contains a mix of different areas and architecture spread about, like roman pillars, a volcano, a karaoke bar (one of the most dangerous locations, oddly enough), dense jungles, open fields...it contains a little bit of everything, but no citizens inhabit the world. With no civilians in the way, contestants can fight to their heart's content.

Rules of Combat -

1 - No godmodding. This includes (but is not limited to) making another character's moves, actions, or words for them (bunnying), dodging everything that comes your way without proper explanation/just dodging everything in general (auto-dodging), hitting your target no matter what (auto-hitting), and killing another character without their controller's consent (auto-killing).
2a - No god characters. All other species and races are allowed.
2b - That being said, demi-gods and "human" gods are allowed (human gods: refers to any mortal being that gains the powers of a full-fledged god, but still keeps their human body and personality; this basically means they'll still bleed when hit).
3 - Unless you arrange it with the character's creator prior to its occurrence, no killing off other characters. In other words, read Rule 1 again.
4 - Your character must have a weakness. (Note: this does not mean you should openly state it).
5 - Any form of magic or fighting is allowed.
6 - You do not need to make a character bio before you start RPing. Give a brief description upon them entering, and that'll be enough. (Of course, making a bio is okay, if you must insist).
7 - No destroying the entire planet.

Posting Rules -

1 - No post headers.
2 - No font other than size 12 (normal).
3 - No colors other than black.
4 - No one-liners. A move should have substance.
5 - All actions must be typed out as they would in a story (in prose), so no [brackets], *asterisks*, or ::colons::.
6 - Try to use the best grammatical and spelling skills as possible. No one's perfect, but please don't murder the English language with 1337speak, chatspeak, and the like.

The above posting rules are only there to keep the roleplay experience enjoyable for everyone. I'm sorry to those who have certain posting styles, but the post needs to be as easy to read as possible, without being obnoctious, bare, or annoying. Thank you for understanding.

(If you don't like these rules [especially 2b in the Rules of Combat], that's tough, because I'm not changing them).

Walking in through a destroyed doorway, a man cloaked in a hooded robe inspected the wreckage, particularly taking interest in the domed ceiling that loomed over him at the far end of the building. His robe was black with red engraved line patterns and a red cape. Underneath that were a pair of black pants and boots plated with a black metal. His face remained hidden, however.

Spying a tremendous organ that still looked to be working, he cautiously walked over to it and started playing a very somber, yet captivating, dirge, which was also a lullaby that was always sung to him.

((I just knew you'd make this. Good job.))
-----------------------------------------------
A chimpanzee ran on all fours straight towards the man in the cloak. He was wearing a small red medieval vest. He chuckled and said, "Funny man... you make me laugh... so funny.. Hee hee hee!" He then jumped up and down with great zeal. The chimp was rolling on the floor laughing at the man.

[[NOOOOO!! You killed my headers, and overlarge text, and my awesome blue-ness TT-TT]]

Far away from the noise making duo, a small black dot formed on a wall, slowly opening up, morphing colors until it reached an almost inhuman white. The opening grew to almost thirty foot in height before slowly widening, stopping at about five foot wide. For a moment, the air around this portal quivered in what seemed like anticipation, and ice crept slowly out of it, cracking the perfect edges and creating a slick area on the otherwise rough floor.

A woman eased slowly out of the wall, standing regally while observing her surroundings. The portal, ice and all, disappeared.

[[Bear with me now, it's hard to put my imagination into words...]]

The cloaked man completely ignored the chimp attempting to annoy him and kept on playing, though his red, crimson eyes, conceiled beneath the dark veil his robe's hood put over his face, shifted, feeling the presence of someone else entering the broken-down church. His eyes caught a glimpse of the ice-enchanting woman, slowly coming out of the wall.

"Hmph," he thought, concentrating on playing once more. "Quite an interesting group of challengers."

[[Let's see how I manage to do with the description...xDD]]


An armor that glowed in the dim light of the dilapidated area covered her up to her neck. It looked as if it were made of smooth, frosted ice, with a deep blue tint to it. Sharp spires rose out of the seamless armor at the shoulders, hips, and knees. An abnormally long, jagged blade was attached to either forearm, casting a melancholy light over the overall serene appearance.


[[You said nothing about rambling to one's self, so that's what I'll do to make up for my headers <.<;;; Did you know an arrangee is an illegal currency dealer in West Africa? Hahaha.]]

The chimpanzee scrambled over to the woman. He looked at her curiously. He then covered his mouth as if trying to hold in a laugh. Soon the chimp couldn't hold it in. "Hee hee hee! Funny woman! Hee hee! Get a tan!" The chimp was bursting with laughter. He then looked back at the man. "Hee hee!!! Ha ha ha!"

[[You know what I love? When ferrets run. It's TOO ADORABLE.]]
[[Hahaha. Especially when they run into walls xDD]]

Such a curious creature... she thought, reaching out as if to touch it.

The chimps senses told him the woman reached out to touch him. He quickly jumped up and started shreaking angrily. "Don't touch me! Crazy lady... I want nothing to do with you.... Go away!" The monkey yellled and scampered away. He seemed silent for a minute then burst out laughing at absolutely nothing.

The man concluded the dirge lullaby softly on the organ, stepping up and turning around to face the woman, his sights containing both the chimp and her. He merely stared at them, unmoving -- eyes straight forward, arms by his sides -- as if waiting for something to happen.

The chimp continued to scamper around. He was giggling to himself as he looked at the man. He yelled out, "You too serious.. need to have fun!" The chimp ran away laughing.

A man walked through the large destroyed entrance, wearing a cloak, mask, and top hat. "Has the tournament started yet?" He asked bluntly.

The man's attention didn't waver. He continued staring at the icy woman, ignoring everything else that attempted to disturb him. However, he shot the newcomer a quick glance, inspecting the competition. "Let's hope they make this fun," he thought.

The chimpanzee jumped on his head, smiled wide, and clapped his hands. He then laughed as he fell down. He couldn't get up because he was laughing so much. His laughter almost started to hurt.

Trevor sat down and rested against the wall. "What's with the chimp? I thought this was an arena not a petting zoo..."
