Phooey. Beware the tornado!!!!!!!!!!!




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 17:29:29)

You just turned into a tornado that takes up a quarter of the arena on the second day?

However, taking that much of the arena up seems rather unfair, perhaps a slightly smaller tornado would be more appropriate.




Nightly -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 17:30:51)

Okay less than a fourth. An eigth




Lord Memphis -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 17:42:39)

I just had to oblige with the 'cacophony' remark, Gedd.

As for the flask, it's a bright flash that'll leave dancing spots if you're looking at it. Whether it actually lands where Rattigan intended, though, well. I left that ambiguous for you.




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 17:49:18)

It is a rather lovely word.

Okay, I've posted far too much in this OOC now. If you wish to get in contact with me send me a PM, I will likely be online until around 3 am GMT (crazy work hours). I believe that is around 10 pm for many of you.

I might get one more post up tonight.




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 18:05:40)

New OOC threads to split this rapid-posting madness. Finals OOC will be held back in here, afterwards, but I do need to see any late entrants to be able to find them!

Oh, and the first post is initially updated, sans Gill, but yeah. Yeah. Finally got to that, too.




The Dragon Knight -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (News/Update Only) (7/18/2008 18:12:31)

One thing, Memphis, is that it would be hard to keep a match lit with the increase in wind within the arena.

Also, Gedd, he does not have an unlimited number of studs on his armor, so he will run out if pressed. Plus, he has to know that the attack is coming to be able to block it with a stud, and it would be ineffective against something like a crossbow bolt or arrow, since they would be moving much faster than a flying knife. Also, they are very limited in range, being fired by turning small pockets of water under each stud into steam, creating a sudden rise in pressure. Hence the champagne cork analogy. This means they are ineffective as an actual weapon, being unable to damage an opponent, but there are other uses for them.

As for the bolts, they are made of super-pressurized water, shaped into a needle-like shape. The latent magic, combined with their pressure, allows them to penetrate most armor. There're a few other tricks I can do with them, but they do not possess any kind of magical homing ability, travel the same speed as a normal bolt, and can be dodged with skill. Plus, my aim is not infallible and I can miss if I'm rushed.

Also, nightly, don't forget that TD's character had essentially engulfed yours in a dome of water, with the spears sticking out from the walls into the center. Seeing as you've already post, and TD won't be back for at least another three hours due to his job, I imagine he'll have to work with it, but please keep in mind that your ability, thus far, borders on bunnying, since you're not providing an opportunity for TD's character to react in any way. Please be sure to design your future posts with an opening for characters to respond before you actually activate an ability like that, and talk to them via PM if need be.

That is, of course, assuming you didn't check with him beforehand.




omf -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/18/2008 20:40:46)

Well starting Sunday I won't be able to post for a whole entire week so I fear I will have to Drop-Out. Oh how sad I am.




dragon -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/18/2008 20:56:36)

Thats unfortunate, sorry omf.

Um, Shadow, what exactly does the Sapphire Pendant do? I can't find a description of its effect anywhere, so its kinda hard to do much about it for my post...


sorry Kell, it basically drains the water out of Auron's surroundings very very slowly, and fills up the vial in the staff with that water. Basically dehydrating people, but still very very very slowly.




Frozt -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 17:46:40)

A simple question: Is it too late to join the EC?




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 17:51:26)

Today is the last day to apply. Be quick!




Guardian of Nekops -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 17:57:58)

Indeed. Apply now, or forever hold your peace!

Or... at least until next year.




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 18:38:53)

You have till the stroke of midnight EST. As of then, even if I haven't replied to any prior to that time, applications will be rejected.




Frozt -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 18:56:47)

Well then...

Here goes:

Name: Froztious
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Element of Participation: Ice
Class: Mage(Specializing in ice magic)/Illusionist
Height: 1.80 Metres
Weight: 50 Kg
Weapons: He carries a light sword, and an ornately carved staff made from ice.
Armor/Clothing: He wears a dark grey robe, and his hands are covered with light leather gauntlets, without fingers.
Physique(sp?): He is rather skinny, with long grey hair and bueish skin. His eyes are all white, and are glowing slightly. He is also blind.
Powers:
As one might tell, he has quite a few spells in hand (from a simple Ice Blast to an Ice Wall)
A Mirror ability enabling him to absorb an enemys attack, and turn it into his own. This, however, takes quite a lot of energy to use, thus is not a very usefull ability later in battle.
He is also able to "see" his suroundings by "freezing" the water paricles in the air, and then using his mind to "build" a picture of it by measuring how they "freeze". This is not something measurable, other than the temperature falling a little.


Thats about it...

EDIT: Added the "powers" section...




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 19:19:38)

Get thee to Spike. I'll update the appropriate pages shortly.




Biophysicist -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 19:27:54)

Grrr... Ronin, can you drop out of these? 'Cause I don't think I have time to do another RP, not to mention... I'm totally lost.




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 22:09:57)

You may, though it is always regrettable to see it happen. You still have a few days, if you'd like, as I don't purge for inactivity / null starters with the first Purge Wipe run-through. Not that I hope to have to purge anyone, really, but the point stands well enough.

Your choice, in the end. Just let me know here or via PM.

EDIT: If you do decide to dropout and Frozt has not yet posted, and he is willing, I may place him in Sky as your replacement instead of into Spike. Let me know if that flies with you, Frozt, as an option.




Biophysicist -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/19/2008 22:43:38)

Well, I might not have to... it's up in the air right now... ish.




Frozt -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/20/2008 4:00:00)

That could be an option Ronin... So should i wait to see if Arya drops out, or?

'cause it would be strange if i posted in Spike, just to be "transported" to Sky... :P




Biophysicist -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/20/2008 8:07:51)

Eh, I take it back, don't think I'll have to. So Frozt, I guess you should stay in Spike, barring Ronin saying otherwise. (He did say 'Get thee to Spike', which implies he wants thee to get thee to Spike.)

Ronin, did you get my PM?




Frozt -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/20/2008 11:11:54)

Zank yuu Arya... :D
Now on to get me to Spike...


Slater...




Biophysicist -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/21/2008 15:34:32)

Okay, it's official, Arya has to drop out.




The Dragon Knight -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/21/2008 15:55:45)

Make sure that your character gets a spectacular death scene, preferably one involving an overly complicated Rube Goldberg-type device that, in the end, results in a very simple, straight forward, and altogether embarrassing method of demise.




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/21/2008 16:40:20)

This is a general notification that entrants ought to get off their lazy bums and post if they have not. I am currently reviewing posts for any Purge worthy offenses, and contacting those RPers in the instance that an explanation may yet satisfy to prevent their purging.

Inactivity purges WILL occur as of the next sweep. This WILL include players who have not yet posted at all. This purge sweep may occur as shortly as three days after this one. You are warned.
