Okay I have just read what Shelus posted. God I was wondering why he would not Pm me back. I know that you well come back some day to the masters. Thanks for testing me Shelus if you read these before you go. You showed me allot of new tricks and tips and for that I thank you deeply. You well be missed but family and friends are important. Don’t forget about your family here.
Thanks
Anyways I well be on alot these weekend so I well work on my stats and make a new Rpb character. I’m also buy a new laptop so then I well have even more time.
Well thanks
For the umpteenth time, Shelus is a HE. Geez.
Hahaha Sorru about that I forget. I look at a person’s avatars, sigs and username. Well then I think male or female. Sorry. and you have only said it two time but after 2 time I should know.Quote:

Thanks
Actually, I am looking for a 'rank-up' battle, and if I'm not mistaken, that means I have to challenge someone who is one rank higher than myself. I am not completely clear on these rules however, and I would ask Anomaly to clear this up for me.Quote:

Well, lets see...given that you're both essentially the same rank, whoever wins would advance one rank in The Masters. If Dark One is willing to compete with his old character, I have no problem with setting up a clash between you two. I suppose it would be fitting, Slim, given you now hold a weapon forged by Shelus.Quote:

Okay, sounds excellent. I have an idea though, because the way Shelus and Dark One's battle ended is still bothering me. It's open-endedness that is. Perhaps you could write up a little introduction explaining how Shelus left the battle and how Dark One was accepted, then you could explain the part I play in all of this, and introduce us into a battle.
Anyway, however you wish to do it is good with me, I'd be glad to face off against Dark One.
*nod* yes, of course, that sounds most suitable. Provided Dark One accepts the challenge as a ranking match.
I do humbly take the Challenge of Slim. I would like to change a few thing s on link but I'm sure by the time you read this I well have fixed it. I'm just going to fix some details that’s all.
Slim- I do not know your details and stats so if you could please point me to them.

I seem to do that a lot lol and thanks for the welcome.Quote:

No he had not purchased an airship of his own, but simply was given the favour of riding in one by a kindly fellow. Kindly, especially, after the 2 000 gold that was given to him to help 'convice' him to deliver Waarne to his requested destination.
The clouds break, and directly in the airships path floated the Masters floating fortress.
"We have arrived, pilot!" names were never a formailty to Waarne, especially on such short term relationships. "Now fly me in closer and I shall bid you farewell."
"Will do," replies the pilot in a very southernlike accent.
The airship honed in on the platform of land on which the fortress floated, and pulled up a mere six feet from it.
"Thank you friend, for your assistance. Have a safe flight home." And at that, Waarne leaped from the ship, landing on the land, a comfortable foot and a half from the edge.
However, the ground began to shake under his feet, and he could tell it was going to give way. It seemed as though he had landed on poorly supported spot of land. There was no time to react, before he was plummeting to his death.
A streak of brown and white feathers dart directly through Waarne's path, and Waarne's fall ceased. He was now soaring in a horizontal direction, clasped in the talons of an enormous eagle.
The eagle mounts itself on a stronger portion of the fortresses base, and releases Waarne from its grasp. A voice calls to him as a cloaked figure climbs down from the birds back.
"That was a close one stranger. You wouldn't have survived a fall from a height such as this." The cloaked man speaks, his forked tongue spitting out from his scaled beak every so often. "I didn't just save the life of a Master did I? If that was the case, I'm sure you could escort me to Anomaly?" The man asks hopefully.
"Perhaps I could, if I was indeed of The Masters. However, I am simply here in hopes of finding a specific someone," Waarne says with a tone of sadness in his voice. Clearly he had been searching for this person a long time.
"Well, we share that specific goal, my friend. May we travel together, so as not to get lost alone in such a place?"
"You, however, search for a being by the name of Anomaly, whilst I am searching for Cordienne Groulx, my brother."
"Hahah!" A look of surprise and happiness now shone across the cloaked man's face. "Perhaps we share much more in common than we know! I too search for a man by that name!"
"You know of him!? How!?"
"I trained him in the art of combat when he was a young boy, and I heard that now he has become a pupil of the great Anomaly, and a member of the Masters! See, The Masters are a very highly respected group of combatants and I wanted to congratulate him. I also thought it might be good to see Cordienne, finally developed into a full grown man. It's been quite a long time since he has left me."
"Well then, if Anomaly is his Master, then I suppose he will know where Cordienne is," says Waarne, now feeling much more confident, knowing he is so close to his brother.
"Precisely. And, by the way, my name is Drake Atakoh, it's a pleasure to meet the great Waarne Gharough."
"How do you know my name?" asks Waarne, almost worriedly.
"Your brother spoke very highly of you. It must have killed him to leave you those many years ago."
At that, they continued on, silently, into the fortress, leaving the eagle to do as he wished. Upon entering the front doors they were greeted by a strange feeling. It felt as though someone was watching them, very closely.
"Do not worry. Allow me to do the talking and there should be no problems." Drake whispers to Waarne in a very confident tone.
"ANOMALY! WE HUMBLY REQUEST ENTRANCE INTO THE FORTRESS! YOU MAY NOT KNOW OF ME, HOWEVER I KNOW VERY WELL OF YOU! SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO DISALLOW US TEMPORARY ENTRANCE, I SHALL REQUEST THAT YOU DUEL US, WITH ONE OTHER OF YOUR CHOICE, IN A TWO-ON-TWO ENTRY BATTLE INTO THE MASTERS, SO THAT WE MAY BE FREE TO WALK THE HALLS OF YOUR FORTRESS, AND FIND WHO IT IS WE ARE SEARCHING FOR!" Drake shouts into the foyer, his voice echoing off the walls of the building.
"What? Wouldn't you think to ask for my consent before throwing me into battle with someone, much less two people, powerful enough to be a member of The Masters!"
"Evidently not. But stop worrying yourself, you're a big boy, and I'll be fighting with you. Oh, and by the way, Anomaly is the MASTER of The Masters. Get ready to have some fun."
------------------------------------------------------
Okay, so this is considered my attempt at asking you, Anomaly, for an entry battle between you and myself, for my characters Waarne and Drake. I will require that you battle me using Anomaly and one other so as to make things a little more interesting (2 on 2). I'll bet no one's ever tried something like this before, eh? Hahah, I hope you'll accept.
An entry battle? I'm not sure I'm following. you know that The Master that is accepted into The Masters is the person behind the character, not the characters themselves, correct?
Though if you want to fight me again, I've no problem facing an opponent that has two characters at their disposal, but any character you deem fit to use within The Masters is acceptable.
Oh yeah, I knew that already. Sorry, what I meant by that was I'd just like to make it official. Like for stories sake. Instead of just saying, 'yeah, they're here now,' I want to have a legitimate storyline behind all of my characters. Hahah, and yes, that means I wish to 2-on-2 duel you :D.Quote:

Well, I should probably post in here since I'm not super active, XD. But yeah anyway, welcome Dante (whenever you check the forums :)). Let's hope TM grows to a greater extent.
On another note, excluding the battle Anomaly do you want me to do something else? Like make some more TM sigs, wallpaper, whatever?
Yes actually, that would be most appreciated Griffith. You do spectacular work and I'd like to see more of it.
Well, I'd definitely like to do something with the character you have in your avatar. If you have a larger picture of him please send it to me and I'll get to work.
Actually, Anomaly, a thought just crossed my mind. As you know, I was looking for a rank up earlier, and my hopes for that were shot down miserably. Hahah... Maybe a little too much drama in that sentence but you know what I mean. Anyways, I was thinking maybe our two-on-two battle could also constitute a rank-up for me. I mean, obviously there is little chance of me emerging victorious, however, just in case... It would actually give me more drive, you know what I mean? Instead of just battling for story's sake I'd be able to come out of it with a little extra as well. Of course, my characters being accepted DOES NOT necessarily have to mean that I get a rank-up. Just a suggestion.
Thank you for your gracious welcome. I enjoyed the fight with Anomaly quite a bit, and I hope to experience more like it. Hopefully later this week, one of the higher-ups could give me a bit o' training?
To Griffith: Certainly. I have some more work by the same artist that I may send your way. A graphicl artist is always in need of solid material to work with.
To Slim: That would be fine, though it would put more stress on you to win. If you think you can manage a victory, we'll see what we can do.
To Fatima: Yes, I would hope that on of the older Masters would be willing to take you under their wing. You're good, but everyone can do with a little practise, to sharpen their skills.
Well, I will definately try my very best. I do not expect to win, but I do not expect to lose. let's have us some fun.
To Anomaly and Slim: I look forward to reading your thread. It will, essentially, be a preview of what people can expect to be doing in the next Tournament of Arms. When the end of the month rolls around, don't be surprised if I'm back in that information thread linking to your battle. I hope the two of you really put a lot of effort into it and make a tournament-calibur battle out of it. While I'm not suddenly suggesting you stop having fun with it and make it into some overly serious thing, I am interested all the same to see what you can come up with.
It will be an excellent example, as well as give some of the newer writers an idea of just what kind of competition they'll be up against. :D
edit:
Well, I take that back. It looks like Anomaly is only controlling one character rather than two. Okay, so it will be a half-example instead. Slim will be managing two characters, which was the point I was making. Hmm. Eh, whatever.
Yes it should be a great fight. I well be reading it.
Slim- It took me a min to see what you where trying to say as well. The best of luck to you.
Thanks
I know I don't have internet access all the time anymore like I used to, but I've been dying to RP...
Are there any plans to start up another story RP? I know the modern-day mutant one kinda died, but I'd really prefer a more Dragonlance fantasy type RP.
I really miss hanging out more with you guys...
XOXOXOXOXO
I hate that my presence here is only little more than a fleeting shadow now.
Yes, I would like to see you on too..I hope that you are doing well there.Quote:

I'm sorry I have been somewhat absent over the last couple of months. In other news, 'BD' and I *finally* finished a battle the other day. After literally years of battles lasting only a few posts, either because one of us couldn't get online to finish it, or the forums vanishing... Well, we finally did it. Yokatta.
Other than that, I'm feeling a little restless. Anyone care for a short sparring session? Or a rank-battle perhaps...
Actually, not sure if I'm allowed/supposed to reveal it, but Anomaly has an RP in the works right now, a horror based one (think 'Mad Jack's' handiwork, for those of you that know what I mean) but I don't know how serious he is about it or when he might actually post it up. I was tempted to polish that FFIX-2 RP of mine up and post it here, but, eh, not sure it'd work. That, and someone dragged me into a fight so that kind of ties me up for now.
I'm around though, mostly lurking.. It's a bad habbit.
:..2-2-7..:
To Colt - Sorry about that. I was originally going to use Anomaly and Fou-Lu, but that wouldn't be that fair (or possible, plot-wise). Getting Lady Kuja to dust off one of her characters for a friendly rumble seemed too good an opertunity to pass up.
To Trap Meridon - I miss you hanging out with us as well. It's just not the same really without your pleasantly dark personality hovering around.
But you will be pleased that I AM in the planning phase for a Masters Sponsered story RP for this Halloween. Sorry it won't be fantasy based, but oyu may be pleased ot learn it will instead be horror based...based off a classic horror movie in fact. (well, the original had Vincent Price anyways, which is classic enough for me)
Well, we can just wait and see. It would be nice to finally d Lady Kuja's FFIX-2 RP properly.
To Nyarlathotep - Well there are two new members that may be looking for a rank up. I know Fatima was wanting someone to take him under their wing. Then if Mage ever shows back up, I know he was aching for a rank up for all of ten minutes :p If you don't mind sparring with him that is.

Hey, Dark, If you wanna go a few rounds, I'm up for it. I have nothing better to do but slash away at someone.
That sounds great to me. I well not realy be able to get into it for a day or two more. Waiting on my laptop to come in but I up fore it. How well start it. If I do it well as I have said be a day or two. So sure.
Alrighteh, you can start it up. I don't mind waiting a few days. I wish you luck.
(you're gonna need it!) >.>
Same to you.
O Also Just to tell you I have joined Rpcentel to see how good the RPs there are.
Can I do that tho? I mean, Fatima and I are technically the same rank.Quote:

Nah, a ranking battle where both members are the same rank is acceptable. All you'd be doing, essentially, is proving yourself superior to a fighter of the same rank. Since I don't believe in demotion, aside from in instances of punishment, this would count the same as proving yourself better than the rank and thus you owuld rank up.
Challenging someone beneath your rank is where things start counting less.
And yes Dark One, 227 is a Master. In fact she is a leading member of the Godhand, my second in command, and personal bodyguard.
Sweet, I'll take him on for a ranking match. Set it up and I'm there, sword in hand ready to crack a few bones. ^_^.
Also, Anomaly, one of the new members, Lord Storm Bryce happens to be a pretty good Rp'er. >.> Just dropping a suggestion just in case he has an urge to join The Masters.
Heh, no need for an apology. I am glad to see, however, that I was right about the initial premise of the thread prior to you changing your mind about the setup. I was starting to think I had gone crazy. All the same, I probably will still use your thread as an example and say something more intelligent than what's about to come out though still to the tune of: "In rounds One and Four, you will be doing what Slim is doing, taking on both characters at once in a single post."Quote:

And of course, in the case of a team attack, it would all be one flowing phase...
...but I digress. Once again I'm talking about the TOA in your thread, and for that, I apologize. I just happened to be brainstorming and got carried away. Plus, at least it's here for me to look back on now in case I forget. ;!
You're eager. I like that.Quote:

O.O You just earned yourself about 500 respect points with that one. That was pretty badass. *Goes to look at it again.* Yup, badass no doubt.
I like it but the blood could look more real. Other then that I love it. May I ask what you used to make it. Well what kind of system. I would really like to know.Quote:

Anomaly- have been working on a new person and it is about half done. I have posted what I have in the cha. thread. Anyways it well be done soon.
Thanks
</3 Always taking shots at me. ;_;
It hurts. ...Well, should anyway. :p
I got my job back, and am looking for a replacement as I really don't feel like dealing with the shit from Kohl's. So, now I've moved onto living issues! :D I lose my current living arrangements end of the semester. Right in time for the Christmas holidays! xD I'm so pro at life, it physically hurts.
Anyway, I'll now be attempting to devote an hour a day to TM sites, and hopefully a couple over weekends or a free day, likely Tuesday.

And when I mentioned starting a fantasy RP, what I really had in mind was something original. Not that they may be bad, but I rather detest RPs based on anime or games...but that might be because of how appalling Gaia was to me with that sort of thing.
Ah...but I digress...as there are other pressing matters.
Has word been heard of Brother? I would like to know if he is well.
BACK!
...
...
...
Just kidding. heh... heh... heh... :p
Just figured I would stop by and say hello. I also wanted to order my genocide ordinates around a bit before I left again. That being said... I would really enjoy both of you to try and recruit new members. I'm not sure, but I have yet to see you two choose who would rank below you in the MMD. As it is becoming more and more clear that newer members are finding there way here. I would really enjoy it if I could see some of my genocides recruiting. So with that said... good luck.
@ Trap: ... @_@ Don't ever mention Gaia... again! lol j/k >_>;;;
I also found that comment about 227 quite hilarious and the whole thing of people wondering if I was male or female... was quite an amusement if I do say so myself. ^_^
Anywhom... 'till I return... PEACE! or not.
*Laugh*
It's good to see you again Shelus...even though your visit was very...short...
Of course it can, but I'm an expert with photoshop, not what I used as Adobe ImageReady. I've only been doing that for like 4-6 months. I wasn't really trying to make the blood look real though, just something with a blood theme. If I wanted to go all out and actually do that I would've been up all night.Quote:

Shelus- Nice to hear from you again. Thanks for the training and the battle. It was a blast. Also when you come back to stay I would like to fight you again by then I should be a lot better.
Anyways I got to go to work. I'm going to get that laptop soon. I can't get over it. Any ways got to go cook some fish. I hate fish now lol.
Thanks
Hey, guys. Sorry Anomaly about my inactivity, I'm grounded. I'm one pissed teenager, and in order for me to get enough time to post a sufficient reply to the battle, I would need much more time online than I have at the moment. So, I'm pretty sure you can expect it on Sunday, but we'll see. Sorry bout that.
I just got ungrounded from every thing. I had very bad grades and had to get them up. It goes by fast but sucks cawes you can't do anything.Well got to go pick up my laptop. Slim I hope it don't last to long.
Thanks
K well, I'm not technically grounded anymore, however I AM extremely busy today. Looks like I'm still shooting for tomorrow in regards to a reply post. Sorry, Anomaly & 227. I will make it a good one :D.
Anyways, in the meantime, if anyone's looking to make some gold, and you're a sports fan, check out my Club. you can get there via my sig. It's just a little fun thing put together that I'm trying to endorse. You can all get a free ballot into tonight's $1,000 bet so you have nothing to lose. Hahah.....
A lot to catch up on again :p
To Nyarlathotep - The only rule is that there is a time limit of two weeks in most ranking battles. Thats all you really need to know. I wish the two of you luck
To Griffith - I love the concept of the wallpaper. I hope to see some more banners incoorperating the artwork I sent you.
To Trap Meridon - Yes, I understand. I have to say, an original work would probably thrive here if properly executed. We should look into another colaborative work soon.
No word about Brother dearest. Frankly I'm not suprised in the least.
To Shelus - Thats not funny :p Though its good to see you hanling your MMD work even though your out. We were wondering what to do about that. I hope your Genocide Ordinates are able to serve your request. (and yes...Gaia sucks...so...so bad...)
To Slim - Sorry to hear about you getting grounded, glad its blown over. We were wondering what had happened to you :P Looking forward to your post.
Just to let everyone know, the House on Haunted Hill RP is posted up and we need one more person to sign up as a guest before we begin the story. It seems the cash prize attracted a few newbies, but thats only to be expected. Still, I hope to make it a fun RP for everyone involved.
