Hey, just wanted a quick-fix brawl. Time-limit would be...two days to post before an auto-hit, and on the second offense an auto-kill. I'd like this to be a fairly fast-paced battle if at all possible. Rules are as follows:

-T1 turn-based combat
-No godmodding/metagaming
-Follow the basic rules of duelist conduct as stated by the site.
-Use common sense, and be willing to take hits

This is a good example of the power level(mid-tier) for this fight...
Anime League Character Tier Guidelines wrote:
Level 6 || The charisma and influence necessary to muster an army of elite soldiers, and access to the technology needed to build and operate a small space craft capable of interstellar travel (or a magic dragon from the future, whatever floats your boat). A revolutionary, extremely potent and refined control over one or several elements, usage of alchemy, ninjutsu, etc. Highly adept and skilled weapon dexterity and skill. Superhuman reflexes, speed, and agility. Able to lift 2000 lbs several times. Your powers and skills rival those of Gandalf the White, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Himura Kenshin at their best.


Any takers?

I'll take you up on this offer, if you don't mind upping it up to high-tier, and extending the limit to five days.

I kinda chose mid-tier because it is what I am familiar with. All my knowledge of high-tier combat is over-the-top crap in which both combatants have a "Who pisses that farthest" contest for the first few turns and then call in a moderator because one or the other feels that their opponent is abusing their powers or some other nonsense.

If you can give me an example of a high-tier duelist though, I can make/modify a character and damn well try.

You may have the first post, if you accept.

We can do mid-tier, that's fine, I just prefer high-tier fighting really.

As for first post, I'd rather you do it. I'm lazy.

If it had been any other member of the Firewalker Corps. assigned to this mission, they probably would have begun blowing things up around ten hours ago. Staring at a run-down, snow-covered town somewhere in a lesser known backwoods settlement in Russia was not exactly the most exciting job in the world. Intelligence had suggested that the target would be passing through around...Sam checked the clock provided by his heads-up display and scowled, realizing that the target was late for their assassination.

With a sigh, Sam adjusted the internal temperature of his HOUND armor with a whispered voice-command and resumed staring through the scope of his M38. It was snowing, and after twelve hours of motionless sentry duty the firewalker was covered in a thin coating of the stuff. It would not have mattered, for laying against the top of a building as he was, there was little to no chance anyone below would notice Sam unless he moved.

There were only two other buildings of comparable size(all three a mere two stories in height) in the dead town, both facing one another on opposite sides of the street Sam currently had his sights on. The shells of two or three cars had been covered in snow and the crushed and hollow remains of several buildings remained, although similarly sheathed in opalescent frost. Sam had to refrain from sighing once more and was about to shake off the snow coating his armor when the HOUND's radar picked up movement at the edge of town. Oh...?

A corrosive mist lay over the city, blaketing the small, sleepy town in its insidious fog. It floated over the city, and people immediately dropped to the ground, their hearts stopping and their minds shutting down. On the outskirts of the town, just outside the thick foliage which deigned to begin where the settlers had stopped their clearing efforts, a man in a duster and cowboy hat stood. His long, brown over coat tracing a line on the ground as he treaded across the ground at a rather slow pace. He was the cause of the insidious Mist, the epicenter of its power, and the focus of its spread. His dark, dead-filled eyes held nothing but malice and an intense hatred within them, and his hair was matted to his body, pasted there by the sweat which formed a thin layer of stick across him. It was ungodly to be so hot here, in the midst of Sibera, where the coldness could kill a man before a bullet ever could. Yet, he was very much hot. Burning up from the inside out with the feverish intensity of his hunger.

A hunger which lay deep within the Val’garan horde, and now that hunger would be fed. These people would make a grand appetizer for the feast that would come when he reached Chita. His tyrant guns lay easily at his side, hooker around his waist by the gunbelts which were slung low over his hips, rubbing their supple leather across the denim of his blue jeans. Aside from his overcoat, his torso was bare, the sweat glistened off his chiseled frame, and it was a sight that lured most woman toward him. Gravited them into his vicinity with the sheer seductiveness of his physique. He took the final step into the town, and finally he was on a street which lead through to the other side. A place where he would be open to being shot, if not for the defensive measures constantly laying about his body.

The Mist continued to land over people. Those who were worthy were infected, and would soon rise again. Those that weren’t were constantly broken down and changed. Their bio-force stolen to be eaten and contained as pure energetic food for the Hellion. He swung his hands behind his back, clasping them together with hands holds wrists and his arms bent so that they were straight across his back. He had the sensation of a fight to come, and Val’garan heralds and general cataclysm alike began to feed him real time information of the battlefield. If a war did break out, he was more than ready for it.

Well. Sam peered through the green-tinted scope of his rifle at the odd figure advancing into the town, That's a new one. and it was. As a member of the Firewalker Corps. it was not unusual for a soldier to shift planes in order to combat an extra-dimensional threat, but this one was unique. At first Sam thought it was a priest of a god of another dimension, Nurgle, Father of Plague due to the obviously toxic gas wafting off of the man-thing. That notion was dismissed when he noted the eerie sense of perfection that the creature had, like the chosen of some deific being... not Nurgle's style.

Small green outlines on the edges of Sam's HUD shifted to yellow as the man moved into their proximity. The yellow almost instantly turned to red, then black before fading entirely; Human vital statistics displaying the already sparse population of the town being wiped out within seconds. Any normal man would have had to fight the urge to cringe at such subtle power ravaging unchecked. Unlike a normal man however, Samuel had been indoctrinated and given several types of nerve therapy that made him effectively immune to the sensation people would call 'fear'.

Instead, Sam was smiling underneath the plated metal of his helmet. It was show time. It took only the most minute movement to set his sights on the mutant and even less to pull the trigger. Two shots rang out, both projectiles whistling through the air toward the hideous portion of the man's trunk that bonded lamian tail to a human abdomen. Just as the second shot cleared the barrel Sam burst from concealment in an explosion of frost and powder. He sprinted towards the edge of one of the few intact buildings in town and leapt with the aid of his enhanced strength and armor. The jump carried Samuel into the shell of what used to be a shop. All that remained was a husk of snow-covered concrete and wood.

Sam landed with only minimal recoil, coming up in a crouch with his rifle already beading on the mutant.

The sound of gunfire broke Hellion free of his internal reverie. The reverberating vibrations rang out loud, even louder than the anguished screams of dying men, women, and children. Those same sounds were a forewarning, a deep, inner jolt which told Hellion he was in danger. So, even as he heard the sound, he pushed his power through the translucent energy which flowed around him, and it soon became opaque. It also solidified from the inside out, the part closest to The Master of the Mist becoming nearly impenetrable, while the rest of it began to become much the same.

The bullets struck the Mist before it was completely transformed, however, and the bullets broke through the living entity with which Hellion fought - and which could not be killed by these simple means. The power within built up to an amazing degree, and the bullets traveled only a few feet into the metaphysical Mist which outlined Hellion’s body and the surrounding area. There they were stopped, the lead of the tips corroding and eroding by the ever-shifting power of the Mist. Soon the bullet was no more, ripped to pieces and made a thousand years older by the transcendental power of the fog-like structure.

Hellion, of course, did not look up from his main task. If a man would shoot once, he would fire again. He was sure the other had already moved, anyway. Still, best to be prepared, as his father had always said.

<‘Prepare to spread out to maximum distance. Exert only your psychometric powers, find the interloper.’> He told the Mist mentally, sending the information via mind-to-metaphysical-mind communication. The response was a swift agreement, and soon The Mist was spreading all the further across the city. Soon, it would cover the entire thing. Then, of course, Hellion would know the location of his opponent. Then, of course, the fun would begin.
