Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Got sick of making individual posts XD I thought I would just do what Hiru does... if that's alright?))

((12 + 15 = 27. Success. Walk on water DC 25 2/5))

Akati stepped on the water after concentrating his chakra into his feet so hard that the water was now rippling as he stood on the water. He was barely sinking now, only a little, but nothing to worry about. He kept walking around in circles, getting the hang of it. He turned every so often in a different direction to stop dizziness.

((13 + 15 = 28. Success. Walk on water DC 25 3/5))

He stood still, noticing he was not sinking, so he carefully walked forward. Every so often he would slightly sink, but he was now getting the hang of it now. But he yet had the guts to go faster. He kept the same pace, still going around in circles and making sure he didn't sink to far.

((15 + 15 = 30. Success. Walk on water DC 25 4/5))

He walked slowly now, but carefully. He was still sinking now and then, but he had basic control now. But he decided to jump, and landed successfully, only sinking to his ankles. He then walked around, making his feet come out of the water now, he was doing very well now, after all those failures.

((15 + 15 = 30. Success. Walk on water DC 25 5/5. COMPLETE.))

He kept walking, faster now and noticed now that he didn't stumble, or loose balance or anything, he could now naturally walk on water. He ran towards Hitomi.
"I'm doing it Hitomi-chan!" He kept on running towards Kai, and jumped around him. He did a little dance on the water, showing off now. But then he though he should stop, because he looked like a total idiot. He rank over to water, enjoying this new ability, knowing this would help him in combat in the future.

((19 + 15 = 34. Success. Slippery Cave Wall Walking. DC: 18. 1/5))

Akati decided to use his new found skill and run up the wall, with success! he ran only about 5 steps up though, before he started to slip down again. But he didn't fall on his a** and hurt himself at all. He had grown quite confident, but he needed a quit rest. He then looked up the wall, he was ready to go again.

16+11=27 success
Now that she was starting to get the hang of it she decided to continue on. Sure she had done it twice but twice was only 2 times which wasn't a whole lot. She needed to do it even more until she could do it completely naturally. It still took her quite a while to get her concentration just right. In a fight or more stressful situations such a luxury of time she would not have. Getting out of the pool she quickly turned around and simply started to walk on it as if she were walking on normal ground. At the same time chakra instantly formed underneath her feet supporting her body. Her lips after such a thing formed into a smile of success. She was getting better and better with each try and so was Akati.

1 = fail

Changing what she was doing a little she didn't get out of the pool again instead she decided to see how long she could manage to stay on the water. Walking around she was doing pretty good until she found herself being crashed into. It was none other then Akati who had failed on an attempt and well fell on her. A bit taken off guard she wasn't able to modify her chakra flow in her feet quick enough to prevent herself and Akati from falling it. With a large splash both their bodies entered the water. Akati apparently embarrassed quickly jumped out. Giving what happened no importance Hitomi simply got back up getting out of the pool.

16+11=27 success

thinking she could still improve a little bit Hitomi got on the water again quickly doing it as well. Each time she gave it another try her chakra formed faster and faster, eventually until she was able to do it basically naturally without much thought. Smiling she began to walk around the pool. One looking at her would probably think she was walking on land or something with the ease she was doing it. Walking on water was actually quite fun and would come in handy when traveling. Instead of one having to walk around a big lake or river they could just walk across the water saving lots of time.

((11 + 15 = 26. Success. Slippery Cave Wall Walking. DC: 18. 2/5))

Akati concentrated the chakra in his feet to grip. He then ran up the wall up ten stepped before he became tired and let himself slip down slowly. He realized he shouldn't just run up, because it tires himself out. So he would just walk up from now on, so that he didn't use up any vital energy for the traveling.

((7 + 15 = 22. Success. Slippery Cave Wall Walking. DC: 18. 3/5))

He slowly walked up, keeping his balance while going up a vertical wall, he slipped downwards now and then, but kept on going, he walked to get to the roof and see if he could hold himself upside down. But before he going even three quarters of the way, he started slipping down again, he was loosing his concentration.
Once he was down, he rested for a bit, and did some stressing. he also had a drink of water and small snack before warming himself up for another round.

((8 + 15 = 23. Success. Slippery Cave Wall Walking. DC: 18. 4/5))

After the rest, drink of water and food, Akati was ready to walk up to the top now. He went a little quicker, almost speed walking up the wall, but he kept on slipping, and almost fell down. He stopped for a bit, but in doing so he didn't have quite enough control to do it without slipping down, not as much as before, but it was still noticeable. He now kept on going, he wanted to reach the top. He felt the strain on his mind of concentrating his chakra and using his physical strength at the same time to just climb to the top. But once he got there, he made his way back down for another rest.

((18 + 15 = 33. Success. Slippery Cave Wall Walking. DC: 18. 5/5 COMPLETED))

After all this training, and then resting, he felt he was reading to run up the top without much hassle. So he did, he ran to the top without to much struggle, and now he didn't even slip at all, he was doing it with ease. He got to the top, and he even could now walk on the roof, he looked down at Hitomi and Kai, waving.
"Hey Hitomi-chan! Hey Kai-sensei!"
He now carefully walked on the roof for a while, before he eventually decided to get down and join Hitomi and Kai.

Hiroko and Horohoro arrived at the foot of the river and waited, still conjoined. When their student arrived Hiroko said, "You swim, I swim, we both arrived together. Horo-chan will train as well." A second body fell from Hiroko's. We will meet again at the rivers mouth."

Hiroko took off his pants and vest to reveal a pair of shorts, after all this training was inevitable, then he dove into the water and started upstream. He had underestimated the current and temperature of the water, and thus he was slightly startled at first, but he managed to pull through and begin his trail upwards.

Meanwhile Horohoro had not been prepared and stripped down to a pair of black briefs, smiling embarrassedly to the people around him before looking to their new disciple and smiling. "Meet you at the top?" He slowly placed one foot into the water and shivered at the realization of the cold. This would take some getting used to. Horohoro continued to slowly ease himself into the water, all the while smiling nervously to his audience.


--------------
Swim to the mouth of the river.
DC=12 Athletics and 8 survival per post.

If you fail 3 or more survival checks you get a -1 to your swim roll for every 3 failures due to hypothermia setting in.

10 successful Athletics checks and you get some exp and a bonus to athletics. Maybe even a survival bonus if the mods feel nice.
---------------
Swim Race:
Athletics DC = 12
Survival DC = 8
1/10 successful Athletics checks for Hiro
0/10 successful Athletics checks for Horohoro
0 failed survival checks for Hiro
0 failed survival checks for Horohoro

Rolls: (Hiro Swim 14+10, Horo swim 1+4, Hiro surv 8+8, Horo Surv 8+7)

((Well I'm rolling for two people, so you just rolled for two post, but no harm done.

So essentially this is how it works, you start your post with the die rolls, just post them up with a TBE (To be edited) and see what your results are. Here you are making two checks, an athletics check, and a survival check. These are affected by your stat modifiers. Your character has a +0 to athletics and a +2 to survival, so you would add 2 to your second and fourth rolls because those are the rolls for your survival checks.

These rolls are then compared to the DC, or Difficulty Check, rating to see whether your roll is a pass or a fail. Thereby Roll+Modifier=total if total is greater than DC you pass the check and roleplay as such.

Below your post you annotate what you are rolling for, most people do it like this:

postpostpostpost
blahblahblahblah
texttexttexttext
((oocoocoocoocooc))
--------------------------------(To separate the post from the training section.)
Title (What you are doing to train)
DC: __ (The DC of the check)
Modifier: __ (What you have as a bonus to the associated skill)
Pass checks / necessary checks (A running number of how many you have passed out of the number needed to complete training. 0/10 ))
Roll: ((The formula for what you rolled, e.g. 14+2=16 16>10 16=Pass This can be summerized to 14+2=Pass if you want.))
Notes: (Any additional info?)

Look at the very bottom of my post and I think you'll get it.))

((That is only half of your rolls though, what about the next set, where you failed your athletics? Work it into the roleplay as to why you failed. Like my post where I said that the water was to cold so he eased his way in instead of just diving behind his brother.))

((( What changed between the two?

I'm not posting again until I am sure that you understand this system.



Important things to know:
You only need two rolls per post.
Your roleplay should reflect your rolls.
I am playing two characters, so I do double the rolls.

Now notice how my rolls played out,




My roleplaying reflects my results. Both entered the water, but Hiroko swam ahead and started the race while Horohoro is just wading in the water, this is because he failed his athletics check and thus cannot advance in the race, so I created something for him to get distracted by, in this case cold water.


Now the main issue that is holding us up is this:

You rolled twice for one character because you were mimicking me. Unfortunately you did not follow through and roleplay two post.

2 rolls = 1 post, thus 4 should be 2 post.

You rolled:
12, 18 == Post 1 Pass
3, 15 == Post 2 Failed Athletics, passed survival.

You did not roleplay a second post where you failed your second swim check for some reason.))

((Yup, only you count PASSED Athletics checks and FAILED Survival checks.

Because if you fail 3 survival checks your Athletics DC become 13 instead of 12, then it becomes 14 if you fail three more so on and so on.

Passed Survival checks just keep you stable.
Failed Athletics checks don't do anything, but you need to roleplay them out.
You roleplay failed survival checks too, three fails = slight hypothermia, 9 would be full blown, 15 would be death. I'll save you before you get to 15 if things start looking grim.))
