This is why I come up with NEW characters for EC. Ones that I don't have purposes for beyond the EC (yet). That way if they die they don't mess up my other plans and thing.




Ronin Of Dreams -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 9:46:19)

To be fair, getting Arc revived was a plus, not a necessity.

TD won last year, after dying in the dropoffs. Varin also died (I think) and became champion for fire. Kell might also have died, but again my memory is fuzzy.

But yes, you can die and become champion. In fact it is quite common I think.


TD and Varin's characters died. My character, Alex, survived, but had a most unfortunate accident during the finals that resulted in the loss of his body. You can read about it in last years Championship Thread, and I'll probably have a few subtle references to it in my intro of Slash.

Ronin, we always play for keeps, its just more fun that way.

I'm not entirely sure that sacrificing one's physical body by becoming a water elemental in order to avoid a rain of lava can be considered an "accident" there, Kell. Bad luck, yes. Bad positioning of your character (Sending a water character for cover behind the fire pillar???) definitely. A lucky shot by TD, seeing as he didn't actually take into account your character's positioning when he made that attack, sure. But not an accident.

Still, I hope I play the water element half as well as you managed.




Kellehendros -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 10:44:23)

Heh, thanks.

Running behind the Fire Pillar certainly wasn't one of the better ideas Alex ever had, but it did make what seemed to be a convenient bit of cover at the time. Sadly it didn't quite work out as expected.




Silverswordmaster -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 11:13:33)

Alright...
Name: Flare Talikaran
Element of Participation: FIRE
Class, if applicible: Spellsword
<Edit in a link to your first post here>
Vital Statistics: 6'3", 120 lbs, Agile fighter build, Spiky Red and orange hair, light blue eyes.
Weaponry: Self-forged Shortswords that sit on his back that gleam of inner fire when drawn, two hidden spikes that can be extended when he uses a palm attack that spike out from under his wrists, Fire Magic
Secondary physical description for reference's sake: Flare a larger man... hight wise anyway. And even then, he is about the same size as a normal person. As you watch him, you notice his light chainmail armor, that seems to glow untill he pulls a black, no sleeve shirt over it. His arms are protected by long, black leather gaunthlets that go down to his hands. His two shortswords sit in leather sheaths on his sides, crossed beind his back at his waist. His pants are simple. Black fighters leather, nothing more. He has a pouch for carrying around things he may find or pick up, but it is empty as of now. As he walks by, you blink slightly as you notice that his hands have more then the gaunthlets protecting them, and that half his fingers are in some sort of metal contraption, and you see the tip of a dagger that quickly retracts and dissaperes as he walks away.
Background: Flare was born, raised, and trained a Spellsword, a powerful warrior taught the intritcys of magic, making them even stronger then a normal warrior. At age Three he was already learning to fight, at age five he cast his first fireball, and at age six, he had mastered the most basic of fire spells. He was going to be great, so his father taught him Blacksmithing, so that he could create his own great weapons. At a young ten years old, Flare finished making two swords that he would carry with him forever. Now, he is eighteen, a proven warrior and adventure with enough quests under his belt that he desided that, as he was reaching his limit as a adventurer (Most die 18-22 years old.), he would join the Elemental Championships, and here he is.

My point as a commentator? To make battles more entertaining by putting out funny play-by-plays of the action.
"OH AND X JUST BEAT DOWN Y. You know guys, it's so much easyer just to shake hands you don't need t... Oshhhh, thats got to hurt... I have never seen someone just reach down and rip someone head off like that! Thats going to hurt in the afterlife! Well, lets move on, and check out some more of the action down on the Feild... oh! Here is a good battle! Both contestins going str... is that a Frag Grenade?" -Explosion- "Whew! DANG, I hate to say it my friend, but they are going to have to glue you back togeather. IN HELL!"




Nightly -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 11:16:45)

Silver, your going to need a co-host [;)]




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 11:33:37)

If silver was doing some kind of commentary I'd actually be quite interested in a spectator thread. I myself used it last year, up until my character in the actual EC was purged (the shame). I plan on not being purged this year so I'd probably use it a bit more.

As for being used, if Silver is invovled there will be no shortage of posts.

As you can see I think we'd get a fair few posts in that thread, even if they were mainly by a certain swordmaster. :)


To Kell: Sorry, got confused. I thought I remembered something happening at the end of the dropoffs/ beginning of the finals that caused Alex to die... or believe he had died.

Cough Cough...

Srry guys :D.

Definitly no shortage [:)]




Silverswordmaster -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 11:46:15)

Huh? -Looks up at post records and stuff-
Eh. So what? In any case, I'm flattered GS. And Nightly, your welcome to be my co-host as long as your willing to take much battrings and verbal abuse.

Hmmm...... Something doesn't seem quite right here.......

@Kell: Well, after having read last year's EC finals, I'm fairly confident in my ability to win it. It's getting TO the finals that'll be the hard part. ~shakes fist in TD's general direction~




Nightly -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 14:37:46)

Then Silver you shall recieve it back...

Me n Silver can be announcers and The Dragon Knight you can interview the contestants! (the ones that died/lost)




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 14:44:20)

Well Dragon Knight, you can just get everyone in the arena TD is in to attack TD straight away, in a way that no one could possibly write their way out of. Thus, TD would only be able to get about 2 posts up... certainly not enough to get sufficent quality to get to the final.

However, the big downside is that this is incredibly unfair and if you did it I would be forced to call you and everyone involved big meanies. You have been warned.




OcarinaofTime -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 15:23:53)

Hey you could always improvise, have your life flash before your eyes for 2 posts (not in real time). Or write a solo epilogue about him.




RATIONALPARANOIA -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 15:38:33)

Hmm... This EC is looking pretty interesting, so far. As for TD- I'm sure everybody would be gunning for the champion, but nobody would be doing it to the point of it being a really guiding goal. As for that method, Geddesmeck- I'm certain that TD would find a way to get quality posts in. He's good with thinking his way out of corners.

/me begins taking down names, and starting his 'To Kill' list, as well as another so-far blank list labeled only 'Killed'




Sate -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 15:40:01)

"I remember you! Werent you killed in the EC?"
"No I wasn't"
"Yes you were"
"No I wasn't"

Ha ha. I would love to do that. Somebody kill my character in the finals!




TormentedDragon -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 16:36:46)

Gedd: bring it on. With that many people I'd have a heyday.




Geddesmck -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 17:09:28)

Even if I wanted to TD it'd go completely against my characters nature to gang up on anyone. That and you scare me. Quite a lot.




The Dragon Knight -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 17:12:31)

Gedd: Don't get him started! Besides, considering the number of entrants so far, it's unlikely we'll be in the same drop-off arena. Still, in the event that we do end up fighting directly, it's going to be a very interesting match.

@Nightly: Oh yes, I can see it now - "Alright, we're now going live to our agent in the field, TDK. TDK, what's the competition like out there?" ~random screaming and rending of limbs follows, along with bloodcurdling death cry~ TDK "Oh, sorry guys, one sec...... Ah! Ewww..... Darnit! That stuff is going to be soooo hard to dry clean out of my clothes...."




Silverswordmaster -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 17:28:24)

"Well TDK, thats what you expect from a BRUTALITY like that. Is it true that there are three spines and a ungodly amount of gore and bones coming from his body TDK?" Silver says, looking out at the battle feild. "I mean really, it's just... OH! And we have some good action going on over here as R just decapitated Y, and is moving on for a Megasupercombo as... by the sword, the Hulk has entered the arena. Hulk Hogan is... dear lord, I did not know that you could make someone's innards expload by punching them! Thats gotta hurt!"

I'm likeing this idea more and more. [:D]




Nightly -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 17:29:02)

He he. Yea sounds like fun!

Dont worry TD! I wont go after you! Your making my RP work so I'll help you out!(most likely get in the way cus my rp level is far from yours)

Dont attack me and I wont attack you [:D]...

Unless no one attacks me. Then ill randomly attack someone[:D]




ShadowSlash -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 17:50:15)

Well I'm all for the spectator thread, sounds good to me :)
Only thing I'm afraid of is TD. This is gonna hurt.




Muse -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 18:25:36)

Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?




Nightly -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 18:26:05)

I iz... he bit me when I was little [:(]




omf -> RE: =Elemental Championships= OOC 2008 (Applications Phase) (7/11/2008 18:29:19)

For me my only goal is making it to the Finals, if I became Champ that would be just a added bonus, but RPing as a master of Earth would just be awesome if I made it that far.
