~Breif History~

A freind and I were discussing how time consuming it was to find an opponent without dealing with an overbearing storyline. Now, naturally places such as this have been created before, but our idea was, if the people within the thread were given absolutely no guidelines to their rp characters, a much larger amount of battlers would surface... And thus A R E N A was born. A place to look for, find, and battle other people who want to battle because...they want to battle.

~Our one rule~


This is not a hangout, now naturally you are allowed to chat, but we sincerely hope that this place will become a total fight oriented thread. ((Mind you, this thread also is encouraged to serve as an arena, so others can watch matches for entertainment))

Here at A R E N A, we offer everyone One Piece Referees. One Piece Referees are intelligent, experienced RPers that will work as referees for battles, for only one gold piece!. This offer isn't available anywhere else. Our only guidline is the battle must take place here on the thread.

The Achillean Grande is going to be held off until later unless picked up by someone who wants to run it...however the Tournament Arenas are still great to pick from for normal battles...((though the color coding is not yet finished))
The Achillean Grande tournament is starting, and the basic rules and guidelines are out for all to see! Mind you, they are apt to change before the actual tournament starts, all changes will be notified through the A R E N A update system. Though everything is given below, I'm going to go over the details that need to be explained. First of all fighters, theres going to be a whopping 4000 gold entrance fee. I (And the others behind the scenes) want this explained more than anything else. There are two main reasons for the tremendous entrance fee: First of all, the high price should scare off anyone who would join to just screw around, this is intended to be an extremely organized and grand tournament, and with high prices, only veterans and die-hards will join. Secondly, ALL entrance fee gold will become the prize money in the end, at 4000 a pop, and with 30 contestants, there will be a prize of 120000 gold!

Another important note I'd like to make is that the profile you submit when you sign up CANNOT be changed, so be extremely sure that your character is fully polished when you sign up. Oh, and crowd shouting is ALLOWED! Crowd shouting is when anyone watching the battle shouts out or pms suggestions to the fighters.

We will be using pyramid elimination to decide who faces who. The pyramid will be kept for all to see. Arena, Arena Conditions, and the Winning condition will be chosen by the random number machine in the gaian posts.

There are three winning conditions, Submission, Smash, and Touch. Sub. is the standard system we all know, to win the fight you must force your opponent to give, render him/her unable to fight, or kill him/her. In Smash, both fighters receive a glass ball, for them to protect, the ball is about the size of a glass eye. The players do not have to hold onto their ball, they may drop it, throw it (gently), etc. You can still kill your opponent, but the battle is not over until a ball is smashed. On a side note, if the ball falls into any of the hazards(lava, quicksand etc.) it is considered smash, it must always stay in the arena, ie: it can be transported to another place, plane etc. Touch is simply when the opponents much touch the other opponent on the forehead, this CANNOT be auto'd, the referee will be strict about this mind you.

As for the prize, the winner will receive all of the Gold entrance fee money, and their choice of any one of their equipment to become achillean, making it utterly indestructible whenever they use it in this thread. The winner will also be the one to fight the semi-winner of the next tournament, to defend their title. And if it makes them feel good, they get their name permanently plastered on the main page of the A R E N A.

There will be one referee per fight, what he says goes, and that's the end of it. ALSO, on November 20, there will be a participant rally, where everyone will meet all day online in the A R E N A, advertising and grouping last minute entrants
.

All questions/comments are welcome.

Aroe

16 years old

Weapons:

Shotgun
Though the weapon bears no name, Aroe's shotgun has been with him since the beginning. What once was a normal weapon was gradually transformed, through scientific and supernatural means, into the super weapon he carries today. The weapon's trigger itself responds to the absolute slightest touch, enabling Aroe quick reaction time, and the abiltiy to shoot in sucsession and mind-blowing speeds. The weapon has been formatted to fire human and/or Aroe's sand bullets. It also has been equipped with a metal underplating.

20 seaxs
Aroe's knives, laced with sand for sharper edges


Augusteonus (Holy Burden)
Aroe's simple pure white pole-like staff, made of a unbreakable holy material. The staff is light as a feather. It's previous owner was, a holy man.((Figure it out)) Aroe has a multitude of morose holy/unholy powers that come along with the staff. Though the staff is holy, Aroe can combine The Sand from his Hand of Death to create various unbreakable weapons that look completely solid, and have the qualties of Holy and Unholy.
Weapon Forms
Hand of Sin: Augusteonus retains most of it's shape, but on the end of it is a beastly hand, rugged and dead looking, with a nail piercing the palm. unlike most of the forms. The hand is animated, and will act under Aroe's will.
Carpenters Hammer: Basic pole shape, with a mammoth sized hammer on the end.
Satan's Sickle:The basic pole shape, with a sharp sickle on the end
Toungue of the Snake: The pole ends with a long whip like tail that acts under Aroe's will
Shepherds Staff::basicpole shape with a hook on the end, resembles a shepherds staff
Word of the Father:A magnifecent sword, strong long, both edges sharp.
Orignal Sin: Aroe's most powerful attack, The pol looks like a giant mass of sand, with ridges resembling a beehive. Laden with needles, even Aroe must hide from this attack, which is an explosion of such devastation it can only be seen to be truly feared.



Abilities:

Elf-like speed and agility
Aroe has inhuman speed and agility this includes(but is not limited to): Super Running Speed, Super Jumping(Ie biggrin istance, Heighth and Speed), Super Reflexes(Ie: Seeing things slower, Moving to react faster etc.), Super Attack Speed (Sand or Physical)

Control of the sand element Aroe's main offense, he can control all types of sand. He can manipulate sand, levitate it, harden it, soften it, animate it etc. The sand is often seen swirling around him or nearby.

Hand of Death
Aroe's left hand was lost to a tragic accident involving him experimenting with his powers, however, he has replaced it with red sand, each grain dark red, stained with the blood of the foes he kills. So naturally as he fights on, the hand will only grow thicker and stronger over time. Unlike any of the rest of the sand, Aroe has a special ethreal relationship with the sand, as it reacts to his absolute whim. The hand counts as dark auric material.

The Word of God
Aroes most powerful specials, left in mystery.

~h.i.m.i.r.u~
Name: Himiru Ichigo <Miru>
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Race: Kuei Jin
Style: Various, mostly consists of Shoalin, Judo and Aikido.
Unique Abilities or Skills: She both controls and feeds on 'chi'. In Chinese, the word has a double meaning of spiritual energy as well as the element of air itself. As a Kuei Jin, she absorbs energy to compensate for the imbalance of 'yin and yang' in her system- which accounts for the chronic mood swings.

When it comes to wind manipulation, Miru's techniques are rarely directly offensive. It's a natural force, like gravity -so she just condenses air density and pressure to provide that extra boost of speed in her attacks or bounce in her acrobatics.
After a recent accident, Himiru has developed mastery over ice by using her chi to cool condensed air around her.

Weapons: <prefers hand combat> Primary = Mechanical Tri-blade claws that sheath into steel-plated armguards (designed herself) Secondary= Twin daggers

~Medi Suran~
Name: Elias Mar (Eli)
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Weapon(s):
~Cylus~
Elias' familiar and, in effect, weapon. When not in battle, Cylus takes the form of a sphere of ice floating in space above or around Elias. He is an intelligent lifeform created by Elias after many failed attempts to find one of his own. Though not created with any eyes,ears, or mouth, Cylus intereacts with the world around him through everyone around him with the use of his telepathy. Being made solely of "living" ice and Elias' energy, Cylus can transform into simple objects as long as Elias is alive. Although made of ice and therefore easily melted, Cylus is not the sphere itself, but the essence of life substantiated through a medium, and so he can recreate himself if damage, though he has a long way to go before he can make himself much larger. In theory, he could recreate himself from a new element, though this has not been tried as he despises the shadow element, the only other element Elias is proficient with.

Unique Abilities or Skills: Being human, he has no innate magical abilities, though he has trained himself to be a proficient:

Shadow Elementalist: He is able to meld the shadows into solid figures and twist them into countless combinations, although he is not able to meld himself into them.

Ice Elementalist: Having been born into this type of magic since birth, Elias has become an expert at both manipulating ice and creating it, either from the air around him or from other basic elements, such as fire, water, wind, earth, and so on. He is not able to change light into ice, and can only change the shadow element because of his Repentia Tattoo.

Diviner: Sharing a link with Cylus, Elias is telepathic as well, and can see the world through his eyes and the eyes of his enemies. He can sense their emotions, thoughts, and intents, and in this way he has learned to counter the attacks of those with higher reaction times and faster movements. This can be fooled, however, by gifted combatants.(Please tell me if you're trying to fool him, cause he can catch people in they slip somehow)

Appearance:
Standing at 5'11", Eli is a normal height for a full grown man. Though not exceptionally strong, his flexible and lean body is more than healthy, perfectly matched for his height. He has blue-green eyes that always seem to be staring at something, along with an always frowning line of a mouth. His head is framed by hair the color of night, flowing over his ears and hiding a crucifix piercing his right ear. On the opposing side starting on his neck starts a tribal tattoo depicting a panther, the tail curling around his knee. He prefers dark colors, and is usually seen fighting in black loose pants and a darkly colored shirt
