The Program

Official Name: Greater East Asia Republic Combat Experiment Program Number 68, aka The Battle Royale Act. This once controversial yearly program randomly selects a single 9th grade class from a list of 50 possible canidates to engage in a gladiator-style fight to the death. Declared necessary for national defense and safety, the first battle royale took place in 1947 and met with a fierce opposition from the national anti-military movement. Today, however, the Battle Royale Act has become standard government policy. Participation in The Program cannot be refused, and families of participants view their children's sacrifice as a civic duty. The setting is which the combat takes place varies, usually changing every few years. Past locations have included former prisons, military base, and remote valleys secured by electrics perimeters. The Program's current location is Okishima, a small island north of Takamatsu in the Seto Island Sea.

The Necklace

Official Name: Personal Electronic Surveillance and Restraint System. The result of a three-year project funded by the state to develop an infallible restraint and surveillance system for use in government prisons. “The Necklace” is a shock absorbing and waterproof collar that utilizes a triangulation-based tracking device and an internal explosive that can be detonated electronically.

::Setting::

About 3 hours ago, you were happily on your way to your first trip as a freshmen. This all changed after everyone in the class was knocked out with some gas in the bus. Next thing you know you're waking up with a metal collar around your neck. Your class was chosen for The Program. You know of it from tv and even made bets on it when you were younger. Now you've been chosen for it and you can't believe it. It all happened so quickly and before you knew it, your name was called and you were given your duffel bag and sent out the door running.

Now you're searching for a safe place to open your bag. The man inside said in each bag you would find water field rations, a map, a compass, watch and a randomly selected weapon which is variety being the spice of life. What weapon will you get?

Kill or Be Killed? Are these really the only options?!

::Battle System::

So obviously there will be encounters and fights amongst the RPers and THEE STRANGER was awesome and designed us a way to play. All credit for this is given to THEE STRANGER. Examples of the System can be found HERE.

Attack Die

Roll two 8-sided die. Each character has a defense of 8 (without modifiers). If you roll a 9 or above, your attack hits. The defending player must now roll to defend. If you roll 8 or less, and your attack misses, the defending player can now either choose to roll for an attack on you, or run away from the battle.

Defense Die

Roll two 8-sided die. If you score a roll that is above the attacking player's result, you successfully block the attack. You may now immediately follow-up with an attack of your own, or choose to run away and escape the battle. (Note: the attacking player may not attack again immediately after the defending player has successfully defended their original attack. They must wait for the defending player to either run away, or cast an attack of their own.)

Damage Die

After you have successfully completed an attack roll, and the defending player has failed to deflect the attack, roll one 4-sided die. The result determines how much damage you inflicted on the enemy player (without modifiers). It is now the defending player's turn. The attacking player must wait for the defending player to either attack, or run away (Note: In which case, they must roll to Break Away).

Break Away

The way the turns work is: Fighter 1 attacks, Fighter 2 defends. If Fighter 2 defends successfully, they can choose to attack or run away.

However, if Fighter 2 fails to defend and takes damage from the Damage Die... It is now their turn. So if he or she wants to run away after that, they have to roll to break away. So they'd have to roll a Break Away Die (Two 8-sided dice)and if they got a 9 or above, then they could run away. If they failed, then they'd have to face another attack without the ability to defend if the attack hits.

Critical Attack

If you roll the maximum result that can be achieved on the Attacking Die (16 out of two 8-sided die), you have scored a critical hit. The defending player is disarmed of their weapon, and cannot defend the attack. They may defend for the subsequent Attack Rolls of the battle, however, they cannot escape. They must now see the fight through to the end with no weapon modifiers.

Critical Defense

Same rules apply as the Critical Attack roll. If you roll the maximum result that can be achieved on the Defense Die (16 out of two 8-sided die), you have scored a critical block. The attacking player is disarmed of their weapon, and cannot defend your subsequent attack. They may defend for the duration of Attack Rolls throughout the battle, however, they cannot escape. They must now see the fight through to the end with no weapon modifiers.

I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends

In the likely event that there's some 2 on 1 action, the following rules apply: In the event of a battle, there are only two principle fighters. Things will become a little confusing otherwise. However, your comrade, buddy; whatever may assist in a couple of ways: They may equally divide the amount damage that is inflicted upon the defending player between the two of them, and in the event that a hit is scored, they may both roll a Damage Die (modifiers apply). If the friendly fighter is killed as a result of the damage die, the assisting player must now fight in their place, and take the left over damage remaining on the damage die.

Character Stats

Defense: 8
Life Points: 8
Attack Weapon Modifier: Varies (Example: a strong weapon such as a gun would add a +3 to your Damage Die rolls. Other weapons such as the hammer or bike chain would add a +1 or +2.)
Defense Weapon Modifier: Varies (Example: a weapon such as the bomb squad helmet would add something like a +1 or +2 to your defense stat, making it a 9 or 10.)
Life Weapon Modifier: Varies (Example: Completely useless crap like the pickle would not be completely useless, and would give you a +1 Life Point.)
Special Weapon Modifier: Varies (Example: Something with a particular special use, like the tracking device, would make it impossible for your enemy to escape the battle.)

::Battle System Post Formats::

Thing that Needs to ALWAYS be included in your post is your life bar. This is required and here is the code for the life bar:

[align=right][size=10][b](( NAME Life Bar: | | | | | | | | 8/8 remaining ))[/b][/size][/align]

Which now shows as:

(( NAME Life Bar: | | | | | | | | 8/8 remaining ))

When you have taken damage, obviously your health is no longer 8. This is preferred format for DAMAGED Life Bar. Just move

[/b][color=#736F6E]

where it needs to be, say your Life Bar is 5/8, this is how the code would now be.

[align=right][size=10][b](( NAME Life Bar: | | | | | [/b][color=#736F6E]| | |[/color][b] 5/8 remaining ))[/b][/size][/align]

Which shows as:

(( NAME Life Bar: | | | | | | | | 5/8 remaining ))

Weapon Stats format

[align=right][size=10][b]((Weapon(s): [color=steelblue][u][i]WEAPON[/i][/u]:[/color] MODIFIER))[/b][/size][/align]

((Weapon(s): WEAPON: MODIFIER))

ATTACK ROLL- When Attacking, at the end of your post, state you are attacking and who. After your roll, depending on if you have succeeded(9+) or failed( 8- ), edit post to indicate such.

Initial Attack Roll:

[align=center][b]((Attacking VICTIM))[/b][/align]

((Attacking VICTIM))

Successful Attack Roll(this will be your edit after you see what you rolled(9+):

[align=center][b]((Attacking VICTIM))
[color=green][i]SUCCESS[/i][/color][/b][/align]

((Attacking VICTIM))
SUCCESS

Failed Attack Roll(this will be your edit after you see what you rolled(8- ) :

[align=center][b]((Attacking VICTIM))
[color=red][i]FAILED[/i][/color][/b][/align]

((Attacking VICTIM))
FAILED

Same goes for Defense/Damage/Break Away Rolls but you do not need to indicate victim's name. Thank you for reading :3

In school Ai was one of those people who got along with everyone more or less. Her sarcasm and bossy attitude drove those she didn't like away. Towards her friends though, she was caring and kind. Since entering Battle Royale she swore to find a way to try and get her friends out of here and to protect any of her friends that needed it. She has been deciding whether to tamper with the necklaces or not...

Primary Weakness: Inflicting damage, talking to people in general(worse with girls)

The young freshmen just wanted to get through the year without getting killed, looks like that goal is a bit out of reach now.

Name: Mamoru Fuyamano
Student Number: 23
Age: 15
Extra Curricular: Video Production, Soccer, and Computer Graphics.
Primary Talents: Web Design, Soccer, Persuading
Primary Weakness: Short Temper and Girls......
Pertinent Background: Known to have hit on at least every girl in his grade, Mamoru is one of the biggest players in the class. This is mostly from under the influence of his Father, who often cheated on his Mother and bribed Mamoru to never tell. He takes a liking to pretty faces and was frequently threatened to be kicked out after forcing himself on some fellow non-male classmates. When he reached Freshman year, he has tried to quit it, but somehow can't. Battle Royale wasn't something he thought about much until it happened to him. Since he was thrust into this "game" he figured he'd use it to his advantage and woo his female classmates to get some. And this time, no annoying adults were here to stop him.....

Primary Talents: Staying up for long periods of time
Primary Weakness: Bad with handling stressful situations
Pertinent Background: Coming into the ninth grade is scary because Sachi always thought that she would end up getting chosen for the program just because she is paranoid. She would watch what was aired and cry. Now that she's been chosen for the show, she doesn't know what to do. She has watched The Program since she was younger but now that her class was chosen, she has no idea how to react. In 3 days, everyone will be dead but how long till she dies?!

KILLED by Boy #50 Yuu Kenda

C3lI0

Gaia Name: C3lI0
Name: Myiuu Tika
Student Number: Nine
Age: Fifteen
Extra Curricular: Cello club, Softball club
Primary Talents: Myiuu is good at sports, but she excels at music.
Primary Weakness: Puzzles. Even though Myiuu enjoys them, she can’t complete them. Also, math is one of her greatest fears.
Pertinent Background: Myiuu came into ninth grade thinking she would spend the other four years with her friends. She had read in high school based novels that these things always happened. However, she didn’t take into account the Battle Royal show. Once they were chosen, she didn’t know how to handle it. Knowing that she would have to kill her friends in order to survive broke her heart. On the other hand, would her classmates show the same type of remorse? If not, what would she do? Only one thing came to mind. Kill or be killed.

Gaia Name: dori
Name: Kumiko Akane
Student Number: 25
Age: 14
Extra Curricular: Flower arrangements club
Primary Talents: Photographic memories
Primary Weakness: Listening things out ; running
Pertinent Background: Getting descent grades in school, Akane didn't really have much of a goal going for her in life. She was hardly known at school and would have rather be outside laying about then indoors. Akane was known as the shadow student back at home; always alone and never spoke unless spoken to. She didn't have much of a problem with anyone but she did get bullied a bit by some of the other girls in her class for always being by herself.

Student Number: 2
Age: 14
Extra Curricular: Student Council, Dance
Primary Talents: Pretty quick and flexible, thinks on her toes.
Primary Weakness: Overly concerned about her twin brother, too trusting
Pertinent Background: Kairi entered the ninth grade just about everyone else did. A bit nervous. She joined a couple clubs, like dance and student council, but her main goal was to break her shy twin out of his shell. She had heard about the game, but never really put the pieces of the puzzle together until she was on that fateful bus ride to her doom. Of course, by then, it was already too late, and the only thing one her mind was how she was going to save her brother. Too make matters worse, it was her fourteenth birthday. Go figure.

Primary Talents: Drawing
Primary Weakness: Physical activity
Pertinent Background: Kawati Ichigo had always had a soft spot for her first crush, Ochigawa Hairi, but he never seemed to notice her. She even had a small alter of him in her closet. Still, all he did was ignore her. Perhaps her constant obsession with him is what drove him away. Still, she held her hopes high for high school, she was determined to get his acceptance in her ninth grade year. The game, however, ruined her plans, but she is going to get her man...or die trying.

Pertinent Background: Yuki is a girl who loves to enjoy life and is pretty easy going. She's very outgoing and friendly and loves meeting new people. Being on The Program, she knows this won't work to her advantage but she want to figure a way off the island with more than just herself. She's not against fighting to survive though. Yuki is a hopeless romantic. While she's not for the fighting, she doesn't believe there has to be fighting till the last moments and a school trip is a school trip and she might as well enjoy it how she can. The glass is half full anyway.

Primary Weakness: Horrible sense of direction and lack of medical skills (like bandaging, how to treat wounds, etc.) plus queasy towards bloodshed.
Pertinent Background: Sorako was born and raised in Tokyo. All her life she was sheltered from the horrors of the world outside, like war and blood and violence. It wasn't until she went to school and got older that she was exposed to it. She indulged in reading books that contained it, for she could never stand facing it, even in movies! Her father died in a car crash a year ago and her Mother went to rehab for taking drugs because of her depressed state over the Father. Sorako has since been living with her Uncle. Ever since childhood, Sorako loved to act and swim. Her dream was to either become an actress (small or big time one) or enter the Olympics if she could with her swimming. She uses her ability to get out of things and has helped her school win championships for swimming. When she found out about Battle Royale, she was strongly against it and presently is hiding around, trying to help keep things peaceful despite the threat of everyone dieing on the third day.

Extra Curricular: Student Council, Art club
Primary Talents: Organization, oil pastel and charcoal works, and surprisingly, good aim (see bio)
Primary Weakness: Brute strength, flexibility, Japanese (the class), expressing herself, caring
Pertinent Background: Chiharu was a fairly good student, mediocre in physical activities however, and applied herself in most subjects. She was never one for making friends and had no real goals for life. For the time being she had only been doing what her parents wanted of her and nothing much further, except for art. Art was the only thing she really had any care for. The BR Program, though disturbing, she thought was more of an opportunity to DO something with her life. Or if not that, then to end it since ther was hardly any point. Her lack of caring to have anyone close to her she sees as an advantage.

Name: Risa Mamoru
Student Number: 32
Age: 15
Extra Curricular: Gardening, Fencing, Track and Field
Primary Talents: Agility, Surprisingly Strong for Her Size.
Primary Weakness: Clumsy and Vanity
Pertinent Background: Risa's Mother was half-French, thus her blond hair and blue eyes. Her family lived in Japan for all her life and raised her to become a track and field star as well as a talented Fencer. But being an only child she was spoiled and sometimes disliked at school for being insensitive or bratty. Having only friends who wanted to be around her for status, family was the most important thing to her. She is handy with parrying attacks and using a rapier. Her dream is to live a happy life with a husband, children, the white picket fence, all that jazz. When she heard about the Battle Royale event that they were forced to take part in, she figured to obtain her goal for a happy life and see her family, which by this point meant more to her then anyone in her freshman class who didn't seem to give a crap about her, she'd need to do this at all cost if she wanted to go home.

She toughened him up so that no one would be able to pick on him without getting a good beating and she think she has done a good job thus far. Being on The Program is of no concern to Utada except she knows she must find her brother so she can figure a way out for them....plus he better be wearing that damn sweater!

Thee Stranger

Gaia Name: Thee Stranger
Name: Ryu Hazuki
Student Number: 7
Age: 15
Extra Curricular: Wrestling
Primary Talents: Strength, Agility, Strategy
Primary Weakness: Women
Pertinent Background: Ryu's biggest concern in High School thus far has been getting laid. A goal he has yet to achieve. He isn't mature enough to see the bigger picture about his future and prioritize accordingly. He was always a shy, awkward, skinny kid growing up, and noticed the chicks always flocked to the popular, athletic jocks; the strong alpha males. As much as he always hated sports, he decided he needed to emulate this for acceptance, and to achieve his goal. So he took up weightlifting mid-way through 8th grade and joined the wrestling team in the beginning of his 9th grade year. As his muscles grew, so did his ego, and his mouth. Now you can't get him to shut up. He became obsessed with strength and fighting, and began reading a lot of books about fighting technique. Particularly, ninja fighting technique. His favorite of these books is a book entitled 'Mind Manipulation' which follows the principles of one of Buddah's famous quotes: "Your greatest weapon is in your enemy's mind". Ryu grew up watching the program on T.V., and always theorized about how he would oh-so-obviously circumvent the certain situations given to the particular combatants. Now that it is actually happening to him, he isn't so smug. He's still reeling over the surreal nature of the entire ordeal.

His mother is a fabric distributor so his taste in style is quite good and she supports his decisions. His placement on this show has her worried though for she knows that despite the judo he is really not too good when it comes to fighting. He likes to start off his mornings snappy! He wears nice slacks and a clean blazer.

Primary Talents: Physical abilities and is rather bright
Primary Weakness: He's to chivalrious.
Pertinent Background: Almost as soon as he was born his parents saw the program and feared the worst. As soon as he could walk his parents put him into martial arts classes, while they studied the program. Things went like that for as long as he could remember and the week before he was sent to the island they taught him everything that they had found out. Fuguring that he already had a large edge on the compitetion Kyosuke started hoping that he wouldn't have to do anything because, while he was a loner and didn't talk to lots of people, he didn't want to have to kill anyone. When he heard about the "trip" he knew what was going on and prepared by hiding small knives in the clothes that he was going to wear that day. On the day of the "trip" he got everything ready and didn't let anyone know of what he was thinking. Once the gas came out he tried to stay awake but he couldn't, and while he was out the people running the program took all of his hidden knives leaving him on par with everyone else.

The young freshmen just wanted to get through the year without getting killed, looks like that goal is a bit out of reach now.

Right when he was starting to change his life for the better, the class trip ended all that for him.

He takes a liking to pretty faces and was frequently threatened to be kicked out after forcing himself on some fellow non-male classmates. When he reached Freshman year, he has tried to quit it, but somehow can't. Battle Royale wasn't something he thought about much until it happened to him. Since he was thrust into this "game" he figured he'd use it to his advantage and woo his female classmates to get some. And this time, no annoying adults were here to stop him.....
