Now, this is just for experimentation. I'll work things out as they go along. And work out quirks later.

Alright. Rules.

You can't make KO moves. Like...

None of that.

Try not to use moves from other things. Some of us may not know what it is. I suppose you can use magics from Final Fantasy, I suppose...Since it's so popular...Try to avoid it, until I can work it out. Try to create your own attacks.

Don't constantly be dodging attacks. Get hit. You can recover in other ways. You have to get hit at least once within every ten attacks. Otherwise, you will disqualified, and it will count as a Lost tally.

Okay, this gets a little odd. You can only have one primary attack in a post, but you can have multiple secondary attacks.

The Kneekick was the primary attack. The sidekick was the secondary. Of course, secondary moves can be used before the primary.

Make a stat sheet. I'll post up a standard sheet. Think wisely, though. Cause, you can't change it during a battle. And you have to request to change it. I'll keep a personal copy of your stats, so if you change it, I'll know.

If you have too much stuff on your stat profile, such as special moves, (regeneration, flying, shapeshifter, and a bunch of other stuff) I will edit it, and inform you of it. I'll keep what I think would be fair. If you have a problem, contact me, and we'll work it out.

You spam in a fight topic, and a tally will be added to the Disqualified. If you want to comment about a fight, I'll start up a topic for you.

Currently, those are the primary rules. I'll add more as I think of them.

Now here is what a standard stat sheet should look like. Remember, post your stats up if you wish to join in the tournament.

And as for Height and Weight, they'll be in metric. If you want, though, tell me what they are in American, and I'll convert them for you.

This is a list of Elements, Sub-Elements, and Alignments.

Elements:
Fire
Water
Wind
Earth
Lightning

Sub-Elements (NOTE: Sub-Elements are optional!):
Wood
Ice
Shadow
Life
Metal

Alignments
Light
Darkness
No Alignment (for those who want to be Neutral)

Root Elements:
Light <-----> Darkness
Light and Darkness are equal. In general, they cannot defeat each other. If in a battle, it's whoever has the strongest elementual ability.

Base Element:
Fire -----> Earth -----> Wind -----> Lightning -----> Water -----> Fire
As you can see, Fire beats Earth, Earth beats Wind, Wind beats Lightning, Lightning beats Water, and Water beats Fire. However, it's possible to change that (e.i. Fire beats Water) if the Fire element is much stronger than Water. Of course, again, that's battle only. In Nature, it won't happen.

Secondary Elements:
Life <-----> Shadow, Metal, Wood <-----> Ice
Life/Shadow, and Wood/Ice acts like Light/Darkness. Metal is special, it has no technical weaknesses, but no technical strengths, either. And it has a strange relationship with Lightning.

If you wish to join, post your stats here. This is just experimental. This isn't an actual tournament. Feel free to fight who ever.

Remember, the rules may change as time goes on.

Koopaking carries around a sword that he strangly called Blaze, even though he generates his Shadow powers to it. He must have called it that from the red glow it gives off. Oh, and he generates his fire powers from his shell by spinning it very fast, creating friction.

Thanks. And that because "gravity" isn't an element. It a force of Nature, and the elements are what make up Nature. Yet, gravity has no real correlation with the elements. So, really, it's a non-elementual. I'm not going to say you can't use non-elementual magics and stuff, though. However, it'll be a bit stricter on it then the rest.

Chwoka's still learning after 3 years of practice, but has improved. He's sorta good, but he won't stop at sorta. He's trying to prove himself by getting to be the champion. Always ready to try something new, if that's what it takes.


BTW, I wanna know, can people have fights WITHOUT having int count for moving up in the tourny, oh, and there could be jobs too, like trainer, or student, or none, and height.

A. Sure. But, you should start a new topic for it. And you should say that you don't want the status numbers to change.

B. Classes would be difficult. You'd have to stick only to abilities assinged to that class. Like, a Archer can ONLY use arrows. Only a Summoner can summon. And so on. If you really want classes, though, I'll put up a list of available jobs, then. It won't too much trouble. Just remember, it'll be strict, though.

C. If you want height, I'll also add weight. It'll be in metric, though. However, I'll be nice. Just PM me the height and weight, and I'll convert it over to metric for you.

No, I mean like you could learn elements and sub-elements. Or teach them something.

I still don't quite understand. Do you mean elementual magics?

You can use any element. The element and sub-elements on the stats aren't what kind of spells you can use. They are want you're primary element is. Everyone is made up of the twelve elements. And technically, everyone is either Light or Darkness. But I degress.

You can pretty much use any spell you want. And besides, you can't really "learn" and element, or sub-element. You already have it within, you just learn different ways to unleash it.

Oh, that sounds better, so th teachers help you unlock specific elements?

...(head falls to desk)...

...There are no teachers, or anything...this is strictly battle.

And EVERYONE is made up of ALL twelve elements. There is nothing to unlock. You already are.

If you want a new spell, make one up, then!

Heh, Chwoka, Changing isn't an element. I'm surprised Wolf didn't catch that.

I'm pretty sure the elements are:

Fire
Water
Air
Earth

Those are the Roman Elements. Lightning was inclued because WOLF SAID SO!

Acttually, that means I have all the elements, but it takes 1 turn to change.

In my belief, there are twelve elements. Again, I'll make the chart up...

Root Elements:
Light <-----> Darkness
Light and Darkness are equal. In general, they cannot defeat each other. If in a battle, it's whoever has the strongest elementual ability.

Base Element:
Fire -----> Earth -----> Wind -----> Lightning -----> Water -----> Fire
As you can see, Fire beats Earth, Earth beats Wind, Wind beats Lightning, Lightning beats Water, and Water beats Fire. However, it's possible to change that (e.i. Fire beats Water) if the Fire element is much stronger than Water. Of course, again, that's battle only. In Nature, it won't happen.

Secondary Elements:
Life <-----> Shadow, Metal, Wood <-----> Ice
Life/Shadow, and Wood/Ice acts like Light/Darkness. Metal is special, it has no technical weaknesses, but no technical strengths, either. And it has a strange relationship with Lightning.

All of the element are in balance, always. If one becomes stronger, then another one become weaker.

In nature, if fire is hot enough, it turns water into steam.

Exactly.

Why is WOOD on there, though?

Because it's a "Sub-Element"

Oh, s---. I forgot to add...Just let me fix that...

There...anyways...The "Sub-Elements" are technically the Secondary Elements.

I still don't think Wood classifies as an element.

Well it is.

Well, I guess that seems fair.

(shrugs) Sure...I guess...

yup.

Well here goes nothing

Has a Lava Borad (two huge swords), can be used as surfborad on: lava, water and can fly. Elements, can be combined to make lava.

That's more or less what I intend. This is just rules, stats, and stuff. Actual battles can take place in a different topic.

And I'll say it here, too. I spoke to Lavo already. I said no, Earth is not a sub-element, so it can't be used as one. However, you can still use earth-based moves.

In addition to the ability to biologically manufacture almost any sort of toxin internally, I also an extra set of arms petruding from my back, which end in razor-sharp armor-piercing bone scythes. These are normally hidden underneath clothing.

Lavo, you forgot your weakness and strength, and also, I think your alignment is supposed to be what side you're on, like you would be dark.

Chwoka I edited that. But the problem is Toa are good.

Edit: Sorry read your post wrong. Editing.

So, do I have any young, foolish brave challengers?

wow, this looks like it'll be a big event. Hopefully this will go down good.

Not me. Nuh-uh. Nope. Natta. Zit. Zero.

OD:Excelent! Then you will fight me!

Me:But I don't want to!

I would, but I'm a bit busy setting up rules. You know, working out situations that could have problems and such.

That, and I'm not really in the mood to fight right now.

then why are you fighting Lavo?

I'm not one to refuse.

*Sighs* But you just refused to Chwoka! Hey, can 2 battles go on at once?

When? Cause I certainly don't see it!

Anyways, I don't see why they can't. Not like they're in the same topic.

Fight me... Tnf.
