Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

Welcome to the Unlimited Potential Combat Arena. In this arena, almost anything goes when it comes to the fight, either the environment or the participants themselves.

How to Sign Up:
In order to sign up, you must complete the following two steps.
  • Post your intention to join in this thread
  • PM me your character description

Characters:
Characters can be anything and everything. There is only one rule, the character MUST be mortal/able to die/able to take injury. Other than that, almost anything goes.

Judging:
Besides me, there will be 2 additional judges. Posts will be graded on a scale of 1 - 10, with 10 being the best, 1 the worst. The results of each post will be averaged up, with the final average determining the winner.

How Rounds Work
Each round will consist of 2 contestants fighting. The arena itself can change it's environment randomly for each round, making it unpredicatable. Each contestant will have 3 posts to attack their opponent. Once each contestant has posted 3 times, the round is over, results will be calculated and results posted.
NOTE: In order to encourage people to start, those who make the first post of the round will get a +2 modifier to their 1st post score. Basically: If you earned a 6 on your first post, you will get a 8 for that post instead. This is only valid for the first post ONLY!

Judges
  • No Dachi
  • Flapjack

Contestants
  • Heiro
  • Vampire_Lestat
  • TBA
  • TBA

Re: Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

not if the enemy is smart enough to use silver weapons and a wooden stake.

At least, for as far as i know. However i don't think a vampire would be smart, what if 1 of the arena's is in daylight, that would kill you before the fight even started

Re: Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

Anything goes? Including Mind Control, to control what the other person does, stop them fighting?

Can combatants control the changes in the arena?

Re: Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

well, let's see, i can't be sure about the mind control but it's safe to assume that it's not allowed.

whereas the changes in the arena are, as it says, completely random. The only way i'd say you could effect that would be to blast nice and big holes in it

Re: Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

Mind Control would be allowed, but don't be surprised if your opponent can figure out some way to overcome it.

Blah, since only 1 person sent me a PM with their fighter, I guess none of you want to play.

Re: Unlimited Potential Combat Arena

*flapjack waits for character profiles as well, assuming that they will either all be posted in the main thread or PMed to the judges*

if anybody needs a mount elf magician (fire/air/necro, others can be made but will take extra time) with a small history and description, pm me (i do want you to change the history and description a lot tough, they're tiny atm)
