Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oh yeah, I do remember you being all up ons that blue crystal s**t every post.


Well, your post says this:

Reflect sad -10pts)
Chainwrap sad -3pts)
Velocity Punch(-5pts)
Bojuka Drill(-10pts)
Idle Impact Charge(-1pt)

The actual actions that you took were 1) chain wrap, 2) reflect, 3) ap-ap-ap-appakutt~ + power enhancement, 4) leap 30 feet in the air, 5) baby you got fine tities lemme touch 'em.

Even discounting the last two as a "what if" scenario that you continued to push for the next two posts, your actions for the post are: attempt to completely incapacitate your opponent (requires no action), automatically deflect the opponent's attack and break their arm by doing so (requires no action), ap-ap-ap-appakutt~.

The dragon punch is not the thing I'm contesting the validity of. And before you try to say something about the chain this is the exact wording from your post: [ The final result would be her body wrapped from head to toe, held tight by the extendable chain. ] As intended, it is a full-body incapacitate done as an afterthought to anything else that happened in the post.

Now it's perfectly valid to say "well my profile was accepted so my abilities are acceptable". It was accepted. But it was accepted based upon their interpretations of how everything in it worked or was intended to work. I could submit a profile for a wizard with a list of spells in it, it would then be assumed that since the spells had verbal components to them I would have to cast them one at a time. My opponent charges at me, I then shout "now you ******** up", open six mouths on the sides of my neck, and begin simultaneously casting offensive, defensive, disabling, and flight spells all at the same time with a s**t-eating grin on my face as fire and ice swirl around me and a pulsating nova of radiant death exudes from my every pore. You could technically fight back... if you could get up to where I am, and past my aura of repulsion and shield spells that are all constantly being maintained by some of my neck-mouths.

But I didn't do that.

Because that's silly.

My problem with what you wrote remains that you effectively took "a full turn" with your punch combo in addition to passively perfect-defense blocking your opponent's attack and implying that it should break their arm and attempting to end the fight with a disable that takes no concentration or action on your part.

Regardless of what Vintrict did in response, it remains my primary concern that you do not find anything at all questionable about that but are perfectly willing to jump all over Athena for a duck-and run because "she couldn't have stopped in time".

I think that's a fair point, but I doubt that many people have expereinced the kind of fight I'm talking about either.

It's a large part of the reason why the second half of my fight with Tres went so much better than the first half...Because I've stood toe-to-toe with a man who wanted to take my life.

More than once.

Knowing that, once the fight had started, he wanted to either kill me...or be killed by me...because even trying to hit me would automatically extend his sentence. Killing me wouldn't make it any worse, but knowing that he had earned those five more years would...maybe...give him some solace.

And then, there's me...unarmed, with a wife and newborn son at home...with a rich, full life worth living...and another human being threatening to take that away.

Not playing around on a dojo mat...not drukenly having a game of grab-a** outside the bar...

Not many have stood on the precipace of death, and looked down into its depths. Tres wanted to kill Eric, and Eric wanted to kill Tres...

I've been there.

Not picking on you or anything. I just honestly want to get down to where this is coming from that you consider what Athena did to be a bullshit response that warrants a judge call, but your nobody is allowed to have an issue with your post.

I will admit that I am personally offended by the ability Reflect as it is used in your post. I don't know how it's written in the profile, but the way that you described it happening in the post was just "Athena swings, and strikes a barrier". Was this there before? Is it something he did just now? Is this an armor ability that you have on as equipment or is it something that you prepped in an earlier post and didn't deduct points for until it went off? Or did it just happen when you wanted it to because technically there's nothing explicitly stating that it can't?

Combine this ability that automatically completely blocks physical attacks with those gloves that automatically completely cancel out magic, and you've got a real hum-dinger there even without any other abilities at all. At all.

So I'm just wanting to know your thought process when you go through this, since from where I sit it's just "You can't beat me kid, I'm just too good."

You a C.O.?

And see I don't entertain those fights because I have never had to fight for my life.

I can surmise what it would feel like but I honestly don't know. I have however been in real fights involving serious injuries. Broken a rib, a nose and a foot. I have played full contacts sports so I understand what it's like dealing with the human at it's peak.

I have done it on mats and on cement. Got Rock bottom'd for real once and felt all the air leave my body before a sharp pain hit my back because curbs hurt and then nothing.

Never considered it that way at all! I would like this to be clear as well. Never said anyone couldn't have a problem with it, but it is a solid post, in the way that it was done in a difficult way to escape but it has ways to escape. It was just a longer , "If caught you stuck" chain combo, than y'all may be used to…or the way I wrote it. But basically its not a "reflect spell" by any means its just using his velocity manipulation to make a small impact barrier if you will, and yes it definitely has its drain to my points and won't block everything. If something is stronger than the force applied then it will go through or knock him back or whatnot. The reason that barrier was able to be placed and strong enough to block was because of the combined distance between them, he had to cover and the fact that Bojechtka (lol) had seen the impact of the hammer before. A trained fighter with abilities he'd had for years would at least be able to guess a rough strength after seeing his opponent in action right? So he used enough points, and it took a good portion of my bar for one thing.

The gloves literally are just insulated for electricity defense and blocked against literal "arcane magic/ magic" like a fire bender could melt them bitches at the right temp. Someone who could rust or freeze could rust or freeze them hoes and thats the end of it. Athena just got really ******** unlucky, cause she uses "magic" also known as "arcane magic" or "arcane energy/power"

But if it was someone new and he didn't have a whole two minutes(exaggeration obviously) of her charging then that s**t may not have even worked, or would have knocked him on his a** if he didn't use enough energy, and if he did well guess what he did, but he couldn;t do it for much longer cause he's using enough or more energy to do so. It was a hammer swing….if it was something someone charged or what not it would have been different. Bojuka isn't a damn super diety cosmos i defeat all man…he just acts like Shaft "The Jecht"Dandy



If y'all lil a** niggas had the same issue as Jello….hopefully this is the clarity we all seek. That and maybe the last quote I posted with him.

I really don't have an honest, heartfelt, opinion on the subject.

If I were fighting you, I know how I would've done things; and if we both advance, and end up squared off, I'll show you a few tricks to get your blood a flowing.

All over the sand.

Last thing I'm gonna bring up.


I want to raise a counterargument and a hypothetical situation.

Jecht's already got superhuman levels of strength et al. because he's got that superjuice in him. Let's say he walks in there and gets into a swordfight. Now in addition to all the normal options available to someone in that situation (block, dodge, evade, parry, distance) he can also just decide that by spending 10% of his bar he can negate a hit against him completely. That means in a swordfight he can ignore 10 hits against him completely, or just truck through an attack to get in close and start stabbing someone in the kidneys with a shiv because Jecht don't give a ********. Reflect reflect reflect. 10% per use? If each trade gives you a stab in the leg or the gut for 10% of your bar that's a trade anyone would take.

I have no idea what sort of powerset the Baron has over there swinging that rapier around but I'm willing to bet Reflect is something he would literally salivate over.
