DEATH BATTLE ROLEPLAY TOURNAMENT


Welcome to the first(and possibly last - this is more of an experiment than anything) RMN Death Battle tournament! Here you can test out your writing skill beating the opponent to death!
Fun! :D


MAJOR DETAILS
  • First off, the tournament will be a classic tree branch system - each round will consist of pairs of fighters, and the winner of each pair will move on to the next round fighting more winners, rinse and repeat. Depending on the number of people who join, some people may sit out during certain rounds. This may be obvious, but I will not be participating, for the sake of fairness.
  • Rounds will go like this: after the brackets are made, I will generate a random location to fight and start it off setting the scene. Then the two opponents will fight until a victor comes out naturally, as in, when someone dies or gives up. Once a victor for one pair is decided, we move on to the next pair and so on down the line until the first round is complete, and then it repeats with the next round.
  • To keep rounds from going on for too long(say, 30 posts between each fighter), I may intervene and decide the victor based on various different attributes rated out of 10 such as Entertainment(how fun your posts were to read), Creativity(how creative you were), Balance(how fair you were), and Clarity(how clear your writing is). Hopefully, this won't be necessary at all, but it acts as a good method to let everyone get their turn in and makes the deciding factor actual RP and writing skill.

RULES
These rules are held pretty strictly because there are only three of them and they are basic rules of freeform RP. If someone breaks these, chances are, things aren't going to be as fun for everyone. Depending on the offense, you may get DQed, meaning for that round you are instantly considered dead and your opponent moves on instead.
  • Be sportsmanlike. No god modding, ghosting, or auto-hitting. This game is basic freeform RP, it doesn't use dice. Trust and common sense is important, and it won't be fun for anyone else if you think you can always hit the opponent without giving them a chance to dodge and dodge every attack yourself. If I catch people doing this, they may get DQed.
  • To add on to the first rule here a little, no metagaming either. For those who don't know, metagaming is when an RPer does things based on info. only they would know. The traditional example is a character knowing another character's name before they are even told it, and your character isn't capable of reading minds. In the context of the tournament, this just means characters shouldn't have prior knowledge of other characters. Once again, any offenders may get DQed if the offense is bad enough.
  • Finally, no controlling other people's characters. If I catch you doing this, you will be asked to edit your post. If you refuse, or it becomes a constant problem, you may get DQed.

CHARACTER SUBMISSION AND SIGN-UPS
Here's the fun part! So, you've read the above stuff, you should know what's going on, it's pretty simple really. Now you just need a character. It can be any character, whether it's from television, video games, books, or from your own imagination(original characters or OCs). To sign up, you fill out the character application below, send it to me in PMs, I'll look over it and, if it seems good, I'll accept it and add you to the list with your app included. I'm not going to be too strict with this, as long as I can understand what's written and you include character weaknesses, it should be good, and even if it's denied I'll tell you why and let you fix it. Note, you only get one character, so make it count.

Participants
AtiyaTheSeeker - Dana Cooper
Name: Dana Cooper
Nicknames: Dana of Wilder, Fox-Tits,
Age: 25
Species: Mutant Fox ("Fox Chimera")
Gender: Female
Occupation: Scout, Herbalist, and Monster Hunter

Appearance:


Personality traits

Likes:
- Music on the radio (especially hits of the bygone era)
- Stories told by others
- Soft drinks (not always easy to come by for her!)

Dislikes:
- Losing at contests and challenges
- Debating against others' opinions (especially ones she dislikes)
- Cold canned meat products

Personality: Adaptable, determined, communicative, inquisitive and youthful. Is also guileful, inconsistent, and a sore loser. Alignment-wise, she's Chaotic Good.

Combat traits

Powers: Has a strong (but not superhuman) threshold for pain and injury. Is able to power electronic devices with the use of her latent magic. Is resilient against mind-affecting powers, such as psionics or illusions. Possesses natural "low-light" vision and heightened sense of hearing and smell compared to a human.

Her main weapon is a plasma pistol that fires high-energy bolts at subsonic speeds. Though powerful and able to deal ballistic damage on impact in addition to third and fourth degree burns, the plasma projected can be evaded at longer distances. In addition, the blaster also possesses a close-ranged "stun mode" which emits cold plasma rings to electrify a target as if using a taser.

Lastly, Dana is equipped with a pen-sized jet injector that can be loaded to inject healing serums, antidotes, and other potions and drugs into one's system, taking immediate effect. She tends to carry at least a couple doses of healing serum on her at a time.

Strengths:
- Can apply traditional medicine skills to battlefield scenarios
- Has good reflexes and reaction speed when aware of others' presence
- Trained in various weapons; is most skilled with pistols and knives

Weaknesses:
- Isn't as dangerous of a fighter without a weapon in hand
- Lesser upper-body strength compared to the average human male
- Atavism (see History) or desperation can lead to her fighting with less skill

History: Born an orphan in a post-apocalyptic world, she was brought into a family with ties to a monster-hunting faction called the Hunters' Den. She trained in said guild since her youth, seeking to help others by her own means. During puberty, she developed a defect mutation over time, causing her to become prone to bloodthirsty and predatory instincts if not kept in check. Despite this, she does what she can for the good of her hometown.


Remember guys, this is all just for fun! A little experiment on my end, but I figured this would be a cool idea to try out.
Of course, there are no prizes really - I have nothing I could give you guys… but regardless, let's keep it happy and enjoyable for every one!


If you have any questions, please ask.

Who's That Nicknamed RMN Member?!

When I was really young and just got on the internet, I had just made my first fan character, Pyro.
I don't know how many sites I've joined, and I always struggled to keep my info., so I had to jump across many different names: Pyroboom(I think no account of mine currently uses this), Pyrode(current deviantart), Pyrosion(once again, defunct), Pyroslasher(an SMBX forum I no longer go to), and Pyrodoom(oh hey, lookie here!)

After I got rid of an old email because I was dumb and scared of being "hacked", I found I had a lot of difficulties making a new account for Google and Yahoo. I got annoyed, so when I had to settle for AOL, I named myself AngerIncarnate64 - 64 just legit being my favorite number because of the game system, Nintendo Sixty-FOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUU-

Anyways, that became my Steam name for a while until I met my boyfriend James, and watched some videos on The Beginner's Guide.
As silly, cheesy, and dumb as it sounds, I related with a character in the game so much that I had an existential crisis of sorts. James had to calm me down, and I had to promise to not act like that again. So, now my steam is ThePromiseIncarnate if I remember correctly, and my Discord was that for a while, but I frequently change it nowadays, normally to names fitting of my characters or that I find cute. I couldn't fit ThePromiseIncarnate onto Twitter, so I went by the name PromiseEmbodied instead.

Finally, I go by DissonantSerenity on Wattpad because I thought it sounded neat.

Mario's Musical Marathon

...ok so life is more important but I feel like this couldn't have been more perfect. An SMBX contest about music that I can't join, because I potentially won't get my computer back until next month.

I hate life sometimes. Such bad timing.
No one's fault, not demanding an extension just so I can join(because getting my computer back next month is hopeful, not guaranteed), but it's kinda disappointing. -3-
Good luck to those of you involved though, can't wait to hear you guys and gals' levels.

anyone considering Go! Child, Nathan Sharp, or Vocaloid music?

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

Franny rolled her eyes, and looked at the sheet as he slathered on. The shouting unnerved her, but whatever.
Once she was filled in on her job with the paper, she thought than shrugged and filled it in...

RACE: Dog
CLASS: Thief
PERSONALITY: Clever, Deceitful
GOAL: Food

Not very creative, but who says a self-insert is bad?
(Roll 9. BTW, there are four players and 3 classes. What happens there?)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

Franny was a bit frustrated herself, plopping down in the chair with her arms across her chest, "Alright let's get this over with."
(Roll 4)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

Franny landed, before growling.
She proceeds to walk over to Terry from the bed, pulling out her bat, and swinging it at Terry's head, "Whose snacks are those~?"

(Roll 7.)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

Well, good job, Franny.
She holds the sword with her non-hurt hand as she goes into Terry's room.
Once down there, she noticed the food in the bar back.
She throws the sword to the side, dishes over to the bowl of chips, and begins eating them.
With a mouth full of chips, she turns to Terry, "Hey, didn't you tell us to come down here, nerd?"

(Roll 11. Oof. I've got 1 HP left. Well, at least I accomplished a character goal of getting something to eat, now let's see what happens lol)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

"Hey, what the heck!" the fox yipped as she was flung back against a wall.
Landing by the sword contained in glass, she stands up to get a better look at it and gets a devious smile.
"A sword? Looks pretty cool~ And the signs are literally just asking me to take it, don't mind if I do!", she said before punching the glass to shatter it and grab the sword.
(Roll 7)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

After that bit of insanity, Franny facepalmed before walking around to look for the trapdoor that she didn't know even existed until now.
(Roll 6)

Bun-Bo Forum RPG

(Crap, clearly I wasn't paying attention I thought there was another closed door in the house ;3; )

Franny was beginning to feel like a fool.
Probably because she was.
She got up, taking a deep breath, before pulling out the satanic key and looking to Marla, "Here. This better be worth it."

(Roll 6)
