Fight or Flight (OOC/Open)

[Faal Lot Himdah]

Fight or Flight?

---

The universe, home to everything in existence.... or is it? What if there was multiple realities, some just a little different from ours, some drastically different. What if all of those events and people if fiction where real, but inhabited a different dimension? Well, for this RP, the answer to that is they do.

Ever since the first universe, the first reality, there was a race called the Dimension Shifters. A race that are capable of travelling between dimensions, they have been mistaking for gods in every universe. The thing about Dimension Shifters, they are cruel beings, they enjoy watching death and destruction. As such, they created a Dimension to be used in gladitorial combat, an The Arena.

Now, they love taking things from different dimensions, and forcing them to fight. This has been going on since the dawn of creation. But, they never take anything to powerful, to give a fair chance to all of their combatants. They fight for the entertainment of the Dimension Shifters, but they can escape. The Dimension Shifters give their combatants two ways of returning to their home, be the last one standing, or escape.

Winning in the Arena is made almost impossible, due to the fact that the Dimension Shifters are constantly bringing in new combatants, and new monsters. So, the only logically way is to escape, but that is just as hard as trying to be the last one. In fact, many combatants have given up, and have settled down, forming a new civilization within the Arena, the Arenaborn.

You are one of the new combatants to be brought into the Arena or an Arenaborn. You have woken up in the Arena, in only your underwear.... joking, you woke up wearing your everyday clothes (no armor though) and a single knife. To make things more interesting, you have been giving access to one power. Can you be the last one standing, or will you run and escape? Fight or Flight.

Events

Sometimes.... the GM feels like the Arena may need a bit of.... help. So on occasion he will summon large monsters, or evil beings to cause trouble in the Arena. This might not always be around the location of characters, so these beings will go around causing trouble until they are killed. Your character can (eventually) assist in taking these beings down.

Also, some events aren't bad. The GM might just decide to do something completely random, ie make it rain cats and dogs, literally.

Some events though are not the GM's handy work. These events are more common and less dangerous (usually).

The Assistants

The Assistants are beings that are part of one greater being, known simply as the Assistant. The whole reason for their existence is to assist those in the Arena. Each assistant is responsible for many people. They can form in any location. Sometimes they form in a dramatic fashion, other times they just pop in.
Known Assistants:
- Ari (Nice Lady)
- Tin (Drill Sergeant)
- Bol (Drunk Dwarf)

Race: Griffin
What Universe are you from: Arthurian Legends
Power: Flight
Appearance:

Bio: Aureadór was born into his own world. An Arthurian world, were King Arthur and his knights ruled Albion from their fortress at Camelot. The King and his men ruled with a fair hand, priding themselves with their virtue and promoting equality and justice among their people. Aureadór, born from the great Griffin clans of the Highlands, saw justice and peace in the quest of noble Arthur. He was one of the first mythical creatures to join the ranks of the knights, serving as Sir Aureadór, Lord of the Mountain Tops.

With him carrying the armour of Camelot, the army of Arthur won battle after battle against invading Picts, against all kinds of demons, and even against the last dragons of Albion. Arthur carved out an empire of peace and prosperity that was to last the ages. Alas, nothing truly lasts the ages. One day, Sir Aureadór, lord of the Mountain Tops, disappeared. He was last seen flying to the Highlands to meet up with the Griffin Clans to gather their support, but he was never seen again. We, of course, know what happened to him. As of today, Sir Aureadór is the subject of interdimensional gladiatorial combat, prepared to fight to the very end.

I will have to think about this one....

Do think. If I can provide any more insurances; I do not plan on having him slaughter the entire arena or something. I will make sure that whatever power he has is properly distributed across posts. He'll most likely have no true gut to fight anyway, as he is a pacifist for the most part. Fighting in the arena is not his style. He'll just be a wise giver of guidance, not a true soldier.

[Barboneia]

Name: Aleksei Smeshnoy
Gender: Male
Sex: Heterosexual
Age: 34
Race: Slavic Human
What Universe are you from: Metro 2033 Universe
Power: Short term x-ray vision: It allows him to see through materials in a 50 foot radius around him, and allows him to see the internal organs and structures of his combatants, but it lasts for only 30 seconds, forcing him to wait a minute and a half before he can use it again.
Appearance:

Bio: Aleksei Smeshnoy was only 10 years old in 2013 when the Third World War struck. Separated from his family, he and thousands of other residents of Moscow were able to flee into the metro system, the station he sought refuge in being Tretyakovskaya. The metro stations were untouched by the warheads that devastated the city above. Being alone, however, Aleksei nearly always went hungry, unless a kind stranger happened to take pity on him and give him food. Over the years he watched as the stations began to unite together and form new factions.

In 2024 he joined the defense force of the Venice station, the new name given to Tretyakovskaya and the surrounding two stations, which had been flooded in the years following the war. Aleksei was often looked up to for being a good shot with a rifle, but was known for being easy to anger. In 2030 he learnt of the Red Line, a group of stations led by a Communistic leadership, and sought to join them to escape the general unlawfulness of Venice. The Red Line welcomed him with open arms, but due to its conscription policy he was forced to join the military of the Red Line. His previous experience working as a guard allowed him to advance faster then his peers, and his skills were really shown when he helped defend a station from a Fourth Reich attack, a group of fascist neo-nazis that took control of multiple stations. This caused him to advance to the rank of Lieutenant, and was set in charge of the defense of a minor outlying Red Line station.

Sometime in 2034 he mysteriously disappeared from the station after he returned from a counter attack on a Fourth Reich outpost. He left no trace of his whereabouts.

Name: Simply know as "Jif", (though his real name is unknown or forgotten). Also referred to as Little Firecracker.
Gender: Male
Sex: Assumedly heterosexual
Age: 15
Race: Homo Sapiens
What Universe are you from:

The year is currently 2072 AD.

This version of Earth is not too different from our own. Humanity still crowds the trash covered landscapes of this once fertile planet. Suffocating under mountains of waste, the human race suffers a slow and painful death. The world is dry, polluted, and nearly devoid of any green. And the culprit of their misfortunes? Themselves. In their blind pursuit of technology and immense greed, they have inadvertently committed ecological suicide.

Among the formerly powerful and wealthy nations known as "the West", people eek out an existence similar to those of today's Third World nations. In what was once the United States, the central government has collapsed under the pressure of dissent, environmental degradation and external warfare. Attempts by the broken State governments to reestablish order all but failed. A new dark age followed close behind the end of modern civilization as we know it. Now, the major population centers of the US, Canada, Europe and much of the world are either ruled by tyrannical gangs or have been plunged into complete and utter anarchy.

As it stands, the future of humanity is bleak.

Power: Super strength and endurance, endowed with the ability to take on enemies multiple times his size and not tire easily.
Appearance:

Bio:
The boy who would soon be called "Jif" was born into wretched poverty in the dilapidated streets of San Jose, given birth to by a neglectful, crackhead of a mother. As young as 8, he was sold away by his own mother into sexual slavery. However he managed to escape their grasp, and fled away to San Francisco. There he lived in continued poverty, stealing and fighting to survive, until one day he was caught stealing a jar of peanut butter from a 19 year old girl living in the Bay Area. She called him Jif, after the jar he attempted to swipe from her. He didn't seem to remember his own name. In return, Jif simply called this girl Sister. From that day forward Jif lived with the girl. Their relationship evolved from a 'quid pro quo' type acquaintanceship into a sort of maternal bond.

Now 15, Jif and Sister make a living working for a prominent local gang. However, there had been news of a brewing gang war with the Mexican cartels in Los Angeles, and the San Francisco gang lords started to abduct young boys to fight in their skirmish. Jif feared being recruited, but nonetheless chose to stay with Sister. He was eventually recruited and sent to train to become a warboy during August of 2068.

One night, however, Jif had disappeared without a trace. His whereabouts are unknown. The San Francisco gangs claim they have no clue of where he is and it's been assumed he simply deserted the army.
