    Default Once again, the die is cast...

    Having made my triumphant return to RPA after a year in Exile, it is once again time to issue an open challenge to any who relish combat.

    My flagship character, Dorian Rabenstein awaits any challengers who would step into the ring with him.

    As per the "Tier" system in my signature, Dorian ranks in the upper echelons of Tier 6, or the lower part of Tier 7.

    I will be asking a third party to determine the setting in which fights will take place in order to ensure a fair match.

    So... are any among you brave enough to fight me?

    They MIGHT work, but you would have to reword the spell (as I have done with all of Dorian's powers, as forum-based RPing is not a dice-rolling tabletop)... and even then, it would work for one turn at most, thanks to Dorian's spells and charms. He's got a couple things that would negate effects like that.

    Hi, there!

    Looking at you character, I have none written up that would be a good match for him at the moment. Maybe Merik, but who knows?

    Anyway, I glanced at your other characters, and there is definitely some possibility there.

    Here are my written up characters: My characters

    If you could think of a good paring, then let us go for it. Or, if you would rather wait for someone to fight this character, I might be able to dream up something within the next week and a half.

    then I will chase it till I find my home

    As far as against Dorian, the only ones with a chance would be Cad or Merik. That said, I am willing to wait if you like. Or you can feel free to challenge one of my other characters.

    pft. You really think Cad would have a chance? He might be able to dodge, but unless the arena helped out a bit, he'd probably never land a hit.

    Merik is an option that would work. Do you think I should add his dragon or play it as is? I don't know the exact extent of the rules of your universe, so either works.

    Any rules for our particular battle?

    The Exalted universe (as well as any universe I use for arena battles) follows the same physics as our world in regard to gravity and whatnot. I don't like using funky rules like low gravity or altered physics. It's up to you if you want to add a dragon or not, but that would technically be two characters vs one. Dorain IS a capable fighter and I DO think he could manage, but I would inevitably resort to some of his more powerful and destructive abilities if that were the case. In a one on one fight, I would be far less inclined to do so unless your character of choice ended up being similarly potent to Dorian himself.

    alright then, I will leave it as such.

    How many posts do you want to go up to, or until we feel like ending it?

    I prefer the latter. I occasionally do deathmatches as well, but only if things get really intense and I don't want to stop. Generally, I prefer to end things before permanent or fatal harm is done to either participant.

    Sounds good. Anything else I should know (or something you wish to know), or shall we begin?
