Way to go Safisan, the fight registration card is his idea.:

[center][size=150][b] FIGHT REGISTRATION CARD [/b][/size][/center]

[b]Style:[/b] Realistic, Enhanced, Powered.

[b]Tier:[/b] Low tier, Mid-Tier, High Tier.

[b]HoR:[/b] (Y/N)

[b]Post limit:[/b]

[b]Match time limit:[/b]

[b]Character I am using:[/b] Link or persona sheet.

[b]Setting:[/b]

Additional info:
Anything you think is relevant to the duel at hand.
The writer who cares more about words than about characters, action, setting, atmosphere is unlikely to create a vivid and continuous dream; he gets in his own way too much; in his poetic drunkenness, he can't tell the cart- and its cargo- from the horse.

Well we have one person willing to spar. Alright Myth lets get you squared away. What kind of fight are you looking for? Realistic? Enhanced? Powered? Low tier, middle tier or high tier? Do you want it HoR? A spar to test yourself? Tell us a little of the fight you want so that anyone brave enough to accept your challenge has an idea.

Okay, here's what I'm looking for:

Awesomeness. It can come in any form. However, I have several characters, some super powered, most not. I most definitely want a high tier battle, and this first one could be either HoR or not. I think a spar would be best though, since I need to knock off the dust. As far as realism goes...it doesn't matter what type of fight it is, human, enhanced, or otherwise, I always vouch for realism; using logic and imagination, even super-high power characters can be realistic, and that is what I prefer.

But, I'd really like for it to be someone who enjoys writing and enjoys RP fighting because it will make the posts more interesting to read and respond to.

I hope that is a sufficient response! Also...if you ask, I can offer some experience if need be.

You got it Zman, and let's go by GT rules, which is T1, if I'm not mistaken. If I am, please let me know :). Also, I'll figure out how to put up a CS on this website and then I'll link you to that character, though it might take a short while because I'm about to run to the store.

Also, are you up for starting tonight? Cause when I get back I can guarantee I'll be raring to go :)

I sent you a message Zman, if there's anything I need to do, or change, or switch, let me know. And as far as the venue, I'm not picky, but I ask that you or Skall make the forum, since I am apparently RPGateway incompetent haha.

Perhaps you could sticky this thread, and rename it to "Need a sparring partner? Ask here!" or something to that extent? It could be particularly useful for getting rid of empty threads.

Postby XaXavior on Wed Feb 02, 2011 8:00 pm

Not exactly sure how this works, just joined today, but I'm looking for a challenging fight. I have been fighting in T1 for nearly a year now. My character is a "Shadow God" The term not literally meaning he's a god. It's more of a created race/class of my own imagining.

He is basically a minion of the shadows that has dwelled so deep and so long in the shadow realm, that they are one. He is like a humanoid form of the shadow realm. He is usually human in appearance, but is able to call upon the shadows at any moment. He has the ability to bend the shadows completely to his will. If he wanted to make a sword of the hardest metal and the sharpest blade from the shadows, he could. He can use the shadows to heal, to numb pain, to create projectiles, even to empower himself. Of course, as with most all powers, there is a draw-back. Once he reaches full potential, his link to the shadow realm is severed, and he can no longer draw powers from it. Also, while he can no longer draw from them, his power level slowly drops until it reaches zero.

He is skilled in martial arts and sword-play. He stands at about seven foot when in Shadow form, he has long black wings that span out twelve feet, six on each side. His skin is an abyssal black with white, webbing scars that he developed from his years of practice in manipulating the air element. His eyes are usually a silver color until he draws from the realm, which is when the turn about as black as his skin. He wears black armor, summoned from the shadow realm, usually uses a bastard sword in one hand and a short sword in the other, also summoned from the shadows.

He wears a black mask with spikes covering the outside, used to prevent the inhalation of any poisonous gases or any other unwelcome fumes. He has inhuman speed and strength. He is a very morbid fighter. That's about all there is to describe about him. HE is very powerful, and I am quite experienced, so if you wish to challenge me, or accept my challenge, contact me or whatever it is you do on this site...
