I'm looking at a full-on multi-thread event of sorts, involving any player that wants in. So how do this work? You post up any 2-3 characters of yours that you want to see fight (you can even make someone up on the spot, as long as they're not OP). People, after posting up their characters may freely get together and duke it out. The loser however, is eliminated.

Once we have a number of characters that is a multiple of four (so a proper tourney can be set up), we'll start on this. Also... characters that haven't fought will be eliminated after the first tier.

The Rules:

-No guns or range weapons, they're cheap.
-No monomolecular weapons or otherwise extra-damage (inflamed, poisoned) weapons, they're very cheap.
-Cyborgs and Nekos are allowed, but no Mishhu, NIWS or non-humanoids.
-No psionics. They're no longer really allowed in the setting, anyway.
-No powergaming or metagaming, please. You should remember to try to stay within the limits of your character's abilities.
-All matches should be posted as different threads.

The Arena:

Gravity: 1G
Dimensions: L 20m x W 20 m x H 10 m
Surface Type: Hard Dirt
Walls: Tightly Packed Bamboo Poles (Cannot be Broken. Will bend.)
Ceiling: Bamboo Poles (Cannot be Broken. Will bend.)

Describing Your Character:

[Name]: [Species], [Weapons Styles]
[Equipment]:


  • (An OP) Example:

    Bazer K Ermine: Full Conversion Cyborg, Weaponized Body
    Equipment: Claws x 6, Pegleg Sword x1, Nose Dagger x1, Chain Sword x1, Integrated Durandium Body Plating x1


    ----

    My Characters:

    Wakahisa Kichiro: Yamataian, Natural Style/Dual Dao Swords
    Equipment: Scylla and Charybdis (Andrium Dao Swords)

    Cyrene Veles: Full Conversion Cyborg, Judo/Knife Fighting
    Equipment: Durandium Stiletto Dagger x3, UCK-01a Combat Knife x1

    Esther Belmonte: Nepleslian, Savate/Fencing/Dirty Fighting
    Equipment: Fencing Outfit, Plated Gauntlets, Epee
 
Jan Kancre:Nespleslian, Nespleslian Muay Thai and Scream of the Stars Style
Equipment: Jeans, T-Shirt, Two-handed Sword, Bowie Knife.
 
Galar Vanatosk: Yamataian, Natural style, Dual Knives (gravity manipulation variant).
Equipment: Standard issue SAoY knife x2, SAoY uniform (SAINT variant)
 
Nelew Enev'rana: EP-8m M1.1 (field-modified variant, very bottom of the wiki article), Passive Reactive Offense -Defense (PRO-D) style.
Equipment: Wrist-mounted throwing blades, fingerless light-leather gloves (with heavy-leather on top of the hands), heavy-leather bracers, heavy-leather grieves, breastplate (medium-leather on the back, light-leather on the front) with silk undershirt, silk britches. foot and leg wraps, forearm wraps, loose medium-leather collar. Last, but not least, herself. Fingernails sharpened, already strengthened due to construction method (same as her bones), and same with her teeth (minus the sharpening).

Does this work?

EDIT: Might as well enter Tweak. My other two characters aren't meant for fighting, so I won't enter them.

Tweak Three Seven: NH-7z nekowalkyrja, Close-Quarters Combat (CQC).
Equipment: Tank top and loosely-fitted jeans (not baggy, not tight) for ease of movement, a plasma arc cutter, and a pair of pipe wrenches connected by a medium chain.
 
[Nevaraon]: [Abrwehan], [Freestyle hand-to-hand, Longsword/Combat knife ]
[Longsword, Diamond Edged Combat Knife]

I think that's about right.

Akio Noboru: Yamataian, Capoeira
[Equipment]: Washizaki and 6 inch knife

Thirteen characters have been submitted so far. We need at least sixteen to make a four-round tournament ladder.

-LADDER ONE-
Round one: eight characters
Round two: four characters
Round three: two characters
Final Round: one character vs Ladder Two's victor.

-LADDER TWO-
Round one: eight characters
Round two: four characters
Round three: two characters
Final Round: one character vs. Ladder One's victor.

Ex, have you decided how the characters are going to be matched up?
 
Ran Rui: Nepleslian, Grappling, Boxing, Knife Fighting.
[Equipment]: Standard-Issue Nepleslian UCK M01A, Chain with weight on the end.

Koenig: Abwehran Nightwalker, Dirty Fighting.
[Equipment]: 2xKnife, 2x Brass Knuckles.

Tyler Jackson(NPC): Red Nepleslian, Boxing, Grappling, Improvisation.
[Equipment]: Brass Knuckle, Thick steel pipe.

(totally bumping this awesome idea.)

Let's get the ladder sorted, and the fighting commenced!
 
I call shenanagins!
There's a random chance someone might be up against themselves. This tournament should be limited to one character per player.
 
On the other hand, we now have seventeen characters applied with eight players...So, unless we want to do a team thing (each player gets one team of characters, but can only use one per fight), everyone should pick one character to use the entire fight. Then we can have a three-round tournament.
 
TRIPLE BUMP!

*says last rites over the idea of the SARP Weapon Master Tournament...for it is dead.*
 
I'll call that Bump and raise you a Revive.

Seems like the tournament is underway after all. We'll post the ladders here, Missing.
 
Really? Koenig and I were just bored, so we JPed. If everyone's still interested, there's the chance that someone might have to fight themselves, so they need to either pick one character or we can go with a tag-team set-up and most need to pick two characters and someone needs to submit a second character for the ladder to work.

I guess not-so-random, given what Cipher's doing right now.
Also, let's keep the OOC comments here, okay?

*searches for someone to take out Nevaraon's post in the fight thread...*
 
Oh man, this sounds like fun. I'd love to get Sumaru involved in this, even just for fun.

  • Hasegawa Sumaru: NH-27 Nekovalkyrja, Ketsurui Blade Style: Midori School.
    [Equipment]: Ketsurui Samurai Uniform, '希望 Kibou' (katana), '名誉 Meisei' (katana).
