Hey TACITUS, I would enjoy it if, instead of fighting with science (blanket term for nonsense I'll have to Wiki), we fought with hands and feet, because I'm good at that. Not a demand or requirement, because obviously, depending on your character's stature, it just might not be feasible, but merely a request, 'cause fights focused solely on powers or meta/superhuman abilities just aren't -that- fun for me anymore.
'Course this is all about achieving equal enjoyment for both parties, so whatever, I'll do my best to cut you in half while you take apart my molecules or whatever your Doctor Doom guy does. There isn't enough leeway in Shou's abilities to match you top-tiered power fellows a la Vahn vs. Viper, but hopefully I can take down at least one of your characters, if only to fight another one of them in the next round and whatnot.
Erm, so yeah, regardless of your response... best o' luck?

O/M Round 3:
...
Jatanma [Binatica] vs. Raine [Airiza Cael]
Shouyin, my character is straight from the game Dues Ex, there is NO magic in him (not counting an antimagic effect, but thats tech based anyway), just a gun, a nanosword, and some tech elements. Jason is likely one of my lower end characters with only Kirby and Kane below him.
Edit: I'd be happy to supply Jason's bio if you'd like it.

lolz, s'all good. Sorry for making assumptions, I just saw a bunch of electric fanciness and, using what I'd heard of you and the time warping insanity, figured it was superpower stuff. Anyways, if that means we're gonna be fighting hand to hand or with weapons or whatever, then it's all good. In the interest of fairness though, unless you've seen my bio I've got no need to look at yours.
+ What's the deal with naming yourself after a Greek historian?

I actually first heard the name in the game Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun: Firestorm. The Tacitus was the name of a data core of unprecidented size and it just sounded kinda cool. Just one day something possessed me to change my name on Battleforums from BAALsminion to Tacitus, and it stuck ever since.
Roman, by the way. Died in 117 CE

Bah, I was close. Stupid somewhat similar civilizations.
And well... if BAALsminion was your first choice, then Tac's a more than acceptable second.
I am good at alliterations.

Well, aside from the admin, I was the 11th person to sign up for Battleforums looking for Diablo II hacks when the forum opened what, 5 years ago? I was a Diablo II nerd then, so Baal was on my mind at the time.

Grah.. I may need some sparring before long with somebody myself. Monseiru: Return ASAP. I'll continue to b***h, even though I'm 99.9% sure you can't currently read it. :Flex:
And oi' Fas, if you check here before you sign off AIM, finally got yer'.. damned.. Fire Emblem sprite COMPLETED! For those whom don't see it's transparent background awesomeness, you're using IE and it's poor support of .PNG(s). The bastards.
[Tacticus]: .. Baal..
Balder's Gate? +10 Kudos if you delved into II.

Baal, one of the three Prime Evils from the game Diablo II (not mentioned to my knowledge in Diablo I). Along with Mephisto and Diablo he is the middle brother of the three, being the Lord of Destruction, where the expansion to Diablo II gets its name.
Omi gets -10 life points for misspelling my name

Y'know... there was a Baal outside of that video game... I've actually heard of the real one, but not of the one in the game. Can't tell you much about him, but I have.
Some ol' god the ancient Hebrew's didn't care for too much and liked human sacrifice, I think. I'm not going to assert it as fact, but I think it's right.
Now I need to catch up around and then come around to post in Tacitus vs Rivven. And Alchert's match, if there's been anything posted since the big lug's homerun swing.
Simple match so far. That's fun stuff.

I am well aware there are other Baal references outside D2, but I was speaking of a specific case when I mentioned Baal previously.
And Omi, Tacticus is not Tacitus. Thats not an extra T, thats dyslexia and adding a C.
