Name: Norrand Alurus, often called Norr / Cyros
Race: Human / Celcios
Element of Participation: Ice
Class, if applicable: Class B Defender / Assassin
Any abilities that require elaboration:

Ice Control - Norr's training with a Cyromancer alone, gives him simple control over ice. Norr commonly creates bridges, walls, steps, etc. nothing too complex. However, Cyros can make the more offensive attacks like ice spikes, but it comes with the cost of higher mana intake. Either Norr or Cyros can decide to melt the ice after creating it, otherwise depending on how to cold or thick it is it can last up to 10 minutes.

Symbiotic Bond - Norr and Cyros communicate with eachother easily. In fact Cyros is more aware of his surroundings than Norr and thus has helped him improved his defense completely. However, there have been plenty of times where Cyros has completely refused to answer to Norr and do whatever he feels like.

Radian Chill - Cyros emits an 8 foot long aura that freezes the closer you get. At that 8 foot mark you only feel things get a little bit cooler. At the 4 foot mark, water starts to freeze completely. Some ranged attacks become slowed down, but are not stopped dead in it's tracks. Heat naturally negates the effect though no permanently.

Ice Shield - Cyros, at Norrand's command, creates the ice and Norr forms it into a shield. How strong or thick the ice is depends on how much mana is used. If Norr does not concentrate on the shield then it dissolves. Years of training his senses and reflexes along with reaction time, he can almost summon shields instantly without looking depending on the attack.

Freeze Wave - Norr convert his energy into a short range blast of cold air, reaching up to about 3 feet.

Ice Travel - Like a magnet to metal Norr can stay attached to ice. While most others would slip or fall, Norr can move easily on ice.

Appearance:

Norr is a 20 year old male. He's 6 feet tall and weighs 174 pounds. Norr has a light cream colored skin tone and cold light blue eyes. With Cyros' influence, Norr has a cold and emotionless face. When he was younger he had dark brown hair, now it is a snow white. Since Cyros keeps him eternally cold, Norr wears a black long-sleeved cotton shirt under a light plate armor all over top brown cloth pants and metal greaves. He wears the whole armor besides the helmet.

Weaponry:

Father's Sword - Right after his father had hugged his son and froze right in front of him, Norr took his sword. The sword that was made from the exact asteroid that carried Cyros to Lore. It's apperance matches that of Jian, but a little bit wider. The blade's color itself is black, but it has a frozen cover over it. If sliced by the blade it would freeze the wound.

Alurus Shield - While his father had gotten a sword out of the asteroid, he made a shield for his son. The shield is 2 and a half feet and surprisingly lightweight. It's strong enough to take on intense heat and cold and has protected Norr through many situations. He inscribed on the back "Confidence behind the shield".

Background: The Celcios race itself are a collection of murderous beings. Right from birth they are sent to different planets to kill every living being and freeze the entire planet for their Queen. At their youth they are only just spheres of blue light that travel on comets and asteroids. Since they cannot live at first without a host, they must create a bond with a pure enough soul that will keep them cool. When they find a host and create a bond with it, they grow with the host and eventually become vicious creatures made out of complete ice and the life essence of their previous host.

Cyros' asteroid went off direction and had him land on Lore. He had landed on a island not to far off North from Battle On a few miles from a town surrounded by castle walls. Within all the commotion he bonded with a pregnant woman (a wife of one of the castle's A Class Defenders) checking out the crash site. Almost months later after giving birth to Norrand, Cyros killed his mother to increase his power.

When he was a young boy Norrand had hardly any friends since his bond with Cyros produced a strong chill to anyone who approached him. His father trained him in the arts of Defending and how to effectively use shields as well as using magic to create barriers. As the years passed by the stronger Cyros become and the colder Norr's aura became. On his 16th birthday it was strong enough to freeze his father.

He now searches the world for a cure of this growing threat. To either control it or get rid of it before it becomes strong enough to kill him and attack the world. While traveling North he was able to find a temporary solution by training with an Cryomancer, who taught him enough to manipulate cold and thus slightly suppress his powers when he wants to.

Approved.

It has been pointed out to me that I should tell you all when the drop-off round ends. This is an eminently practical suggestion, which is why I won't follow it.

Of course, if I where to tell you when drop-offs end, I would tell you that it will be either the 6th or 7th of July, but of course, as I said, I'm not telling you that.

Also, start killing each other more, the crowd wants blood, are you going to disappoint them?

two or three days left. I, personally, wouldn't mind an extension of, say, three more days, since my personal combat thingy has just started getting really interesting. What do the rest of y'all think?

Kinda thinking extension would be cool. My combat is still rather near the middle, I think.

A 2 day extension is the maximum I would support, but I'm fine with the drop-offs ending normally. Most battles in the drop-offs never get to "end" on their own anyway. They always get interrupted. Well, almost always, heh. I guess Torrelle and Selah DID finish theirs in 08, didn't they? However, since I won't be able to participate in the finals ANYWAY, my vote hardly counts. :-P

I could go either way. I did have a forced hiatus while I waited for Nex, but really either way works for me. I'd be down for an extension or otherwise. I suppose it really depends on whether a couple days will really make the difference for judging, or whether Kell has things pretty much figured out.

If Kell is all up for it and wishes to see more blood, then an extension sounds great. >:D

Though if he has already decided the Finalists, I don't believe an extension is necessary.

Unless there are objections, the drop-offs will be extended two days, to end on the 9th of July. The opinions expressed here seem to support that, and I won't object to a few more posts to help decide some elements.

If anyone wishes to object to the extension, please let me know.

That's great, Kel.

Just wondering, does anyone have records of the ECs before 06? Mainly interested in the one with Arcadius in it.

They were on the old boards, and I mean the OLD ones, not the pre-Wipe boards. If any records are found of that outright mess of an EC, I'd enjoy them myself.

Now, if you are after specific factoids about that year, I might be able to furnish them myself. Particularly considering Arcadius was my character, and all.

E: Of note, at least one of the three prior iterations of Elemental Championships will have no records in the form of forum posts mystically resurrected by the Wayback Machine or some other data mining utility. The "EC Rebellion", also known as the second of any such combat tournaments attempted with the EC moniker, was run by Vephoma via IRC rather than via forum posts. Forum posts were made to declare winners (there was an HP system and a time/turn mechanic as part of the judging, thus needing a die roller which IRC provided), and I spruced up a logfile into a somewhat blow-by-blow account, so small bits of it might be findable.

Still, this assumes by comparison that you can find either the original EC in '04, the EC Rebellion under Vephoma, or DW's first EC (also known as the ArchBeing EC for its Finals structure by some of us old folk of RP). Best of luck.

Archbeing EC SHOULD be in that archive that Captain Rhubarb put up when the big Forum Wipe happened.

Huh, well what do ya know, my sense of time IS slightly skewed. Yeah, the ArchBeing EC was pre-Wipe on these boards, unlike the other two. Infact, the dropoffs are right here, in fact.

For those of you who remain in the drop-off Arenas, and still have a taste for blood, the threads will remain open so that you may continue to slaughter each other to the crowd's delight.

Congratulations to the Finalists, and I do thank you all for making the decisions hard on me.

If anyone wishes to hear from me concerning their performance/evaluation/how depressingly close they came, feel free to PM me about it.

I'm actually glad I didn't make the finals this year. My temporary pre-paid wireless internet ran out of credit more than a week before my new ADSL connection was activated, so I wouldn't have been able to participate. I was able to check the forums briefly on my phone, but not post.

Ah well.

GoN, when you make your exit from the Arena, either as a champion, or as a corpse, Jonathan will be waiting for you to retrieve that which you stole from him.

I certainly wish you luck with that. :-P

GoN, he'll have his chance or so it would seem.

Well, the last three survived.

GoN, a solid performance, and my thanks for your participation this year. I look forward to seeing you next year, after all, you always seem to emerge for the EC, for which I am most grateful.

Ryu, it was close, very close, agonizing, really. I thank you as well.

In the end though, there can be only one. Congratulations to the Elemental Champion of 2010, Krey.
