Welcome to Gaia! ::

From the stands a hulking figure rose to the challenge, a gigantic axe on his back crossed with a collapsable machine of sorts constructed of an odd wood. The most notable thing was the tree he was dragging with him, though the tree likely wasn't as spectacular as the fact he was 21ft tall weighing 6 tons alone. His light green skin mixed with verdant hair that rimmed his head and flowed down his back, looking as if it had been recently washed save for the fact that it was incredibly dirty beforehand and had not been thouroughly cleaned. Lightning seemed to dance about his body as he glanced down to the arena.

As he lept from the stands he thrust people out of the way, smashing the stands to bits as his tree hit them. A fine layer of short curly hair in patches across his body rippled in the air that rushed past him before he finally landed with a tremendous crash, a green aura beginning to flood the tree as he stood, his right hand dug into the core of the tree itself. He stood closest to the eastern compass point when the arena was viewed from above.

A verdant surge passed through the tree as the giant leapt forth, darting at the child no more than 150ft away. The little ones were always the scariest, and thus needed to be pwned. Fast. With leaps and bounds he crossed the distance in mere moments, the great tree falling to smash the girl with a spray of acid that would cover a 30ft radius, the tree taking up around 5 ft in diameter itself, and eat away at the stone to around 5ft in only a few moments. Furthermore, the wild look about him truly made it seem like he was one of those giants that ate children, the skies responding to this as clouds began to take shape, pulling from nothingness as magical forces conspired to control the weather, an innate ability of storm giants.

The acid does indeed burn away, but in doing so a cloud is left hanging around the flame, just as acidic as if it had been fluid. Due to the nature of the acid it reaches a gaseous state and stays as such, not moving away from the barrier, merely holding position. The clouds continued to gather, rain beginning to fall as the winds picked up and the smell of ozone tainted the air, drowning out the rain. The tree seemed be have taken little damage, having been infused so many times by various elemental energies, heat and flame included. The tree rose again, a faint grey shimmer running along it, and slammed back down, a sonic blast issuing forth from the tree on impact with the barrier, ground, whaver. Any not accustomed to such loud sounds would surely be deafened, not to mention the concussive force stemming from the blast.

As stated, the acid was a form of elemental energy, and while the fluid component was turned to gas, it remained energy, bounded together by this link and even more deadly in a gaseous form. The flame would lick at the tree as it slammed down again with another sonic blast, but would deal only face damage, bark peeling away under the effect of the flame. It was no mere enchantment that produced the immunity, it was merely the fact that the tree had been fundamentally changed by having been enchanted so many times. Furthermore, the rains began to pound with increasing intensity as winds began to swirl about the two, setting them at the eye of a growing storm. A beastial glare ran through Trebuchet's eyes as a throaty growl was echoed by thunder pulsing through the air in time with strikes of lightning that all seemed to fall around them, but did not strike either of them.

With a terrible roar lightning fell around them both, consuming Trebuchet in a shower of light. The ground around him would begin too split and break asunder, the crash of thunder pulsing out from the occurance creating a gust of wind in its passing pushing with enough force to tear a house from its foundations in the single blast. When the light faded he wound be on the move, streams of lightning continuing to fall from the skies to strike his now glowing form. The tree was nowhere to be seen, cast aside in his rush forward, arm digging into the ground, apparently vaporizing some of the rock as he threw a punch to not only see if the barrier extended underground, but to upset the earth below Jikabuita, rock growing around his own fist of more durable composition, known to the dwarves as Dwarven Blackrock, a stone with qualities of mithral and beyond.

[Armor-3]

Flames lick at the giant's flesh but the armor about him seems to be repelling basic assaults. The blade, while not a basic assault, is met with a twofold disruption of the throw. Lightning from all around continues to slam into Trebuchet's form, but a single stroke falls to slap the blade away whilst the winds seem to carry it away with a particularly powerful gust. At best it will likely embed in the arena wall, a spectator, or announcement screen, else it will likely simply be gone, carried away. Te rock gathered about Tebuchet's fist seems to pull into a solid ball in his palm, glowing with energy as elemental influence floods it, the armor giving it a natural lightning element while his own influence passes along a sonic energy component. As the large form begins to dart forward he pulls back and whips the ball towards Jikabuita with a single stream passing back to his form. It gave the image of a giant paddle-ball.

[Armor: 3+1-1]

A particularly strong surge of lightning falls like a pulse, milling about Trebuchet's body for a few moments before exploding out in a nova of electrical power. This would give any invisible targets an aura of lightning that looked nearly the same as Trebuchet's armor and make them very noticable to both anyone with such senses and the clouds above. If she was caught in the pulse that passed from his body she would, quite simply, become a lightning rod equal to, if not greater than, Trebuchet himself.
