Soul Calibur RP

[GodofPH]

Transcending history, a tale of Souls and swords eternally betold.

The cursed blade known as Soul Edge supposedly met its end 10 years ago, with the hell-born sword being destroyed by one of the Soul Calibur fighters. The heros were at ease, the world was safe.

What the people of Earth didn't know was that Soul Edge didn't get destroyed, but was shattered into fragments. These fragments faded away from each other, fleeing to the farthest corners of the Earth.

The world celebrates as the dawn of the 17th century is at hand. The fiend known as Nightmare hasn't been seen for years, not since Soul Edge was destroyed. What the people of earth didn't know was that the fragments of Soul Edge have awakened, making their way to the Ostrheinsburg Chapel, the supposed resting place of the holy sword Soul Calibur.

Some speculate that Soul Edge wants to destroy Soul Calibur, others thought that Soul Edge wanted a fusion instead. A new stem of warriors arise to the challenge to prevent Soul Edge's spread, and their quest may take them to places that man thought would never be visited.

RULES

1. Don't godmod when creating a character
2. You cannot use any of the old Soul Calibur characters. This RP takes place almost 70 years after Soul Calibur 2. Most characters would be too old to go back to the fray. The exception being Link, who has been reserved by Randall-Kun. Nightmare and Cervantes are also returning, but I have my own plans for them.
3. Any OOC posts must have a regular RP entry along with it.
4. Since alot of this is centered around fighting, I will allow Power-playing in FIGHTS ONLY. This rule is here simply because fights are difficult to post with the power-play rules in effect.
5. If you want a character poisoned by Soul Edge (chars like Nightmare, Cervantes, and Necrid), PM me first.

[GodofPH]

JCBlank, I don't think you'll be able to use Cloud. You profile semi-godmods "He always wins!", and the fact that Link was only allowed because he is an established part of Soul Calibur continuity and he could easily return for another engagement.

Anyway, heres my character

Patrick attained a psychic awareness of Soul Edge's activity through deep meditation, and he began a journey to destroy Soul Edge completely upon feeling the shard's activity.
Weapon(s): Ni Roznia. Ni Roznia is a scythe with the chain connected to the blade. Ni Roznia can be used in close-range combat as well as long range combat where the chain allows the scythe to be a flail-like weapon.

[GodofPH]

Aack, tis you He-who-posts-in-red! You'd just be lucky that I've been impressed with your RPs at KP or....who am I kidding? That character is fine, your accepted.

 

[Grey Fox]

Just don't tell anyone I'm only here to rape and pillage....
Oh, wait..... I just said that out loud, didn't I?

 

[GodofPH]

yes you did.....

Well, I need a few more people and I can start 'er up.

 

[Sailor Chibi Lunatone]

Name: Sakura Takahashi
Appearence: Sakura is somewhat short for a fourteen-year-old girl, standing at just five feet, one inch tall. Her shoulder-length hair is of a light brown hue, and is tied in a ponytail so that it does not get in her face while she is fighting. Unless she is trying to hide from someone or make a sneak attack, she will usually wear a light blue kimono with a peach blossem print, that despite its appearence, she can move around and fight quite well in it. When she is 'working' and she feels like it, she will wear her traditional black ninja garb. At all times, no matter the outfit, she keeps her katana and a sack for provisions and holding her shuriken tied to her waist.
Personality: Sakura is kind, calm, and loves to joke around. She is also determined to finish whatever job she does, and at the moment she believes it is saving the world. She would rather talk things over than fight, but she is still quite a formidable foe in battle, despite her size and age.
Ethnicity: Japan
History: Sakura was born to a clan of ninja who lived in the mountains of northern Japan. However, when she was ten years old, her clan was captured by a group of European explorers who taught them English and and made them into slaves.

But one day, when the ship her clan was on stopped at an island trading post, the explorers picked up an odd peace of metal that was actually a fragment of the Soul Edge. The sailors went insane and killed her entire clan, except for Sakura herself, who managed to escape. She believed that it was this piece of metal that caused the sailors to go insane, as she had heard rumors at the trading post about other shards like it. After stowing away on another ship to Europe, she decided to go on a quest to destroy the Soul Edge for the good of humanity.
Weapon(s): Shuriken and Katanas
Fighting Style: Ninjitsu

 

[ShieldWolf27]

Since I helped Pat out of this RP I will take charde when he's not here (If thats ok with you Pat) So yes SCL you are accepted!

 

[GodofPH]

I told SCL she was accepted when I was talking to her on AIM. But whenever I am gone, you can take charge Randall. I've told you enough about the plot so you'll know my plan for how things go.

 

[Zephiros]

Name- Naota

Age- 17 years

Weight- 127 lb.

Alignment- Chaotic neutral: Her thoughts on good or evil and friend or foe change depending on what suits her best at the time

Appearence- Naota stands at 5'8" tall with bleached blonde hair that reaches her shoulders and is often unkempt and therefore spikes out, the color is natural. Her eyes are a deep crimson red color and her skin is of a normal caucasian tone with a slight tan to it. Along her shoulders, legs, and back are markings of war to show her battle prowess. Her body frame is slender and little muscle shows on her given the nature of her clan, but much is there given the life she's endured. Her clothing consists of body wraps from the elbow to her wrist and from her knees to her ankles, shinguards and bracers over said wraps, a short skirt which reaches mid-thigh with a slit halfway up the right side, a breastplate, and twin shoulder armor, the colors of each are red and black.

Personality- Naota is a ruthless fighter who has no qualms about killing an adversary if necessary, but her preference is to leave her opponents alive and in fear. She has been in combat training since she was old enough to walk and hence her mind is geared mostly towards war and fighting, it is all she knows. Due to this as well, she is rather anti-social, limiting her contact with others to completing a task, gathering information, or fighting them, but on some rare occasions she does get a little lax and talkative.

Ethnicity- Berserker clan, natural born

History- Growing up in a clan where war and battle is everything, where the strong live and the weak perish, Naota only seeks to better herself at any reasonable cost. She seeks Soul Edge because she believes this will be a great test of what she's learned throguhout her life and how it compares to other styles, another of her reasons being she wants to learn all she can about said other fighting stryles so she can potentially meld them with her own to become the ultimate fighter.

Weapon(s)- Twin bloodore warblades of energy, A.K.A. lightning infused
Blade properties- Short-term stun with a certain probability

Fighting Style- Quick and merciless. Despite the size of her swords and their weight, Naota is capable fo moving quickly and given some of her talents fighting is easier for her.

Talents, natural-

Flexibility: Naota is rather flexible and thus can perform some complicated battle maneuvers most would find either very difficult or impossible.

Keen eyes: Throughout her years of training, Naota has learned to read an opponent's subtle actions to determine their next move, such as breathing patterns, bodily tension, and eyes. However, this skill is not always accurate given how people vary so greatly.

Abilities, learned- [These tire her out as she uses them]

Toxic breath: Naota expels a green mist from her mouth which has one of two effects on the target, either the target becomes nauteous for awhile or they are poisoned and steadily weakened over time.

Savage blow: Naota allows her rage to take her over and her strength increases x1.5, but her better judgment is thrown to the wayside, decreasing her reflexes by an equal amount as the increase in her resistance to pain. This state only lasts for a short time, but it is her most dangerous state, both to her opponent and herself.

Rush: Naota gets a quick burst to her speed, but this only applies if she tries to close the distance between herself and an adversary. She needs time to focus and prepare her body which renders this useless for dodging.

Dual weild: Naota uses the weapon in her off hand as well as the one in her dominant hand, no penalties are incurred by either blade.

[Side note]: Naota has been greatly toned down from what she should be, but if anything else needs to be toned down, let me know and i will try to do so

History:Cybelle is a girl who is absolutely obsessed with mythology, legends and myths. She often spends her time in her family's library reading on myths and legends. So one day she comes across the thinnest book in the library she'd ever seen.

Being the curious girl she is, she decides to find these swords, and find out whether they are real or not.

~~~~~~~~~~

The mid-day sun shown brightly over a peaceful ocean. The gentle tide rocked gently against an old wooden dock protruding from the seashore. Patrick Oglada was lying back on the dock holding Ni Roznia the chain-scythe. He held the hilt in his hands but the blade was in the water. The bodys of several sharks were lying behind him, with large wounds in the mouth.

This was a version of fishing Pat had invented. Stabbing the blade of Ni Roznia through a slab of meat and dangling it in the water with the chain extended. Of course, he could only catch sharks this way. Once he had caught a Dolphin, but sharks were the largest quantity of his catches. He'd grown to like the taste of shark meat, and their skins made excellent leather.

Pat felt pressure on the hilt of Ni Roznia. He jerked upward, sending a large jolt through the chain. The pressure stopped, the shark had been wounded mortally. Pat smiled and began pulling in the chain. The shark's body came to the surface. Pat reached down and lifted the sea predator out of the water.

He slammed it on the dock. Pat ripped the blade of Ni Roznia out of the shark's neck. He began slicing through the cartlidge skeleton of the shark's skull. The brains of a shark were a valuable commodity, it was an ancient Roman trick to use boiled shark brains as a cure for toothaches.

"The greatest fear of the seas. Thats what you were, and look at you now, lying dead at the feet of a being that would fall prey to you had he been in your element."

He kept slicing with Ni Roznia's blade, then he footsteps behind him. A light tapping on the pier's wooden structure.

 

[Sailor Chibi Lunatone]

Sakura Takahashi, a young girl from Japan had been wandering Europe for nearly a year, partially because she did not have enough money to return to her homeland, but mainly because she wanted to destroy this 'Soul Edge' she had heard about, which was supposedly the reason the sailors had gone insane and killed her clan.

Her travels had now brought her to the ocean. She did not know exactly where she was, but she knew that she was still miles away from her home. However, seeing the ocean gave her hope. She knew that far away, on the other side of another large continent and another ocean, lay the Land of the Rising Sun, the place where she was born and raised, and where she hoped to return to once she accomplished her mission. She walked out onto a dock, past a boy who had just caught a shark, all the way to the pier's end, where she stared out upon the ocean, appreciating its beauty and thinking about her home...

 

[Loki]

I fingered my necklace as I sat beside the motor on the windmill that powered my entire village.
My daggers sat on either side of myself, 1'' and a half each with rubies set at the hilt and the handles made of emerald.
The windmill was on the very edge of the small village, and It was where I intended to start my journey.
After a little break of course.
I had pulled the scarf in my hair out and let the wind that powered the mill to toss my hair around.
I didn't particularly mind, even though I was usually very sensitive about hair in my face, but at the moment I was thinking of Soul Edge.
The elder had said he heard a rumor that it was in a citadel, far away from here.
Then the advisor added that he had heard that an old knight who had commited many murders under Soul Edge's power, who was absolutely unrecognizable by anybody gaurded the citadel...
But no matter what they said, they always advised me against it.
'destroying the fragments mean that you will always carry the burden for the rest of your life. A girl your age, should not go off and risk your life for the thrill and excitement of adventure...' The Elder Inkret's voice echoed.
I shook out any thoughts of regret and picked up my daggers.
"Alright. Let's go." I said to nobody in particular but myself, as I headed back down the giant windmill.

 

[GodofPH]

Pat sliced open his catch's skull. The shark's small brain was ripped from its place of rest and placed in a small leather pouch hanging from Pat's side. The shark's body was dragged over to a cart and thrown on, along with the other sharks. Pat grabbed onto the cart's handles to wheel it back to his house, but he saw a girl standing at the edge of the pier. She didn't look like the girls he usually saw around this port town. She looked like the Asians that Pat would occaisonally see on the Trading ships. She was wearing a light-blue robe.

Pat retracted Ni Roznia's chain into the Scythe's hilt and placed it in its hold on his back. He walked across the pier that he'd been trained on since he was 5. He was born in this port town, but his family hailed from a farming village out in the country. The people of the village had been brutally slain by Nightmare, except Pat's ancestors. Each member of the family born since then was put through extensive Combat training to destroy Soul Edge if the problem ever arose again.

Pat stopped behind the girl. He said, "Hello there. I haven't seen you around before, where are you from?"
