Okay, that's better. What the hell, Jimmy?

"I don't know, the entanglement artificer matrix went bonkers."

Again? I thought they fixed the contralinearity glitch in the latest patch.

"So they said. Fuck, whenever have those nerds gotten anything right?"

Easy now, Luddite. Wait, why am I getting this on mindwave? Didn't we set tonal as default?

The blob hasn't inraveled fully, look.

Don't call Zbrz a blob, Salvor. We've talked about this.

Sigh, you're coming with the racist card again, aren't you?

Yes, because it is racist! Jesus. What... oh, ze must've reset the connection. You know, it's a disgrace that our tonal architect has to use dial-up when working.

"Well, dial-up's pretty good when you're from a universe that doesn't even have internet."

Hyeah, fucking blobs and their backwards tech...




Ladies, gentlemen, and members of species whose gender or lack of thereof cannot be expressed in English! I am Ayreonia, and me and my colleagues would like to warmly welcome you to the PocketVerse! We apologize for the lack of sky this morning, our IT personnel are working on the issue as we speak.

The place you have inraveled to is the PocketVerse Lounge. Here, you can find hot and cold beverages, snacks and our famous hot dogs, freshly coded! Please enjoy, but note that we do not accept the golden Septim as currency here.

But now, to the event you all have gathered here for: the M-M-M-MULTIVERSAL BADASS!!!1 Tournament! Whether you're here to spectate, bet or participate, you can do it all from here in the lounge. I mean, not the participation. Please don't start fighting here. Really.

Those who desire to compete, please access our free wi-fi and download the mindwave file "Combatant Application," found here:

And last but not least, if you think you've got what it takes to be a host of the Tournament, sign here! For those who aren't aware, a host is basically a co-OP, commentator and announcer. We're going to need two (2) of these, since our last host was sacked due to being violently racist.

RP example:





Right, since a lot of you have apparently gotten into this universe by accident, allow me to explain what this is all about:

Ayreonia wrote:So there's this artificially created pocket dimension somewhere among the folds of the Multiverse, originally constructed as an experiment, but subsequently abandoned because the Multiverse is a big enough place as it is. That is, until an enterprising businessman whose name is not known (except that it begins with an A and rhymes with "yreonia") realized the potential profits. You see, the engineers who built the place did a pretty shoddy job and forgot to integrate quantum entanglement, which means that time and space are convoluted, so that anything that happens there has zero effect on the rest of the world(s). How the hell does that even work, I hear you asking. There's a long, complicated answer and a short to-the-point one. The former is still being worked on, the latter is "cartoon physics, also, fuck you, that's how."

So, this mysterious businessman who shall not be named did the only sensible thing with this little pocket dimension: he turned it into a combat arena, where denizens of the Multiverse from every time, dimension and reality gather to duke it out to see who is the baddest ass in all the worlds! And since death only means the termination of that consciousness, the maimed, burned and blown-up losers would simply find themselves back in their home dimension, all limbs intact. The matches are televised to all corners of the 'verse, and the victors gain (literally) eternal glory and fame, as well as a discount for ammo and weapons bought for the next match.

So, does your character have what it takes to become the Multiversal Badass?


Rules:

1) Your combatant has to exist in one form or another in a RP. This is the only restriction. They can be anything, from housecats to gods.
2) As you might have guessed, this is purely for fun. Don't take losses too seriously. In case of a contested outcome, the judges and hosts present will decide the victor. I'm still working on the exact mechanics, but rest assured that everyone has a chance of winning, no matter how one-sided a match might seem.
3) Absolutely no godmoding or metagaming. If you're absolutely certain that the enemy Jedi couldn't block your chainsword strike, don't RP it. The judges will handle it. This is for your own safety. You see, the universe doesn't take kindly to consciential discrepancy, and will tear the offender's mind apart, effectively making them zero-sum, sending them back to their home realm.

NS Name: Min
Character name: Maureen Vasburg
Link to original character sheet: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=258959&p=16308076#p16308076
Main strengths: (3) Saber combat/swordmanship, martial arts, the Force.
Main weaknesses: (3) being a human female she's likely be physically weaker than other aliens when the force isn't applied. Her high self doubt after the death of her master has made her pause in combat situations, leaving her open/exposed to critical strikes. Susceptible to the Dark Side.

Anything to add? Funny you should say Jedi crap... but I think I played it effectively on that RP :P, but let me know if I need to change Ayr.

Both A-OK. Added theme song to the app sheet, so if you two wanna, post 'em.

Min the Sadist is a judge, and will be forcibly made a host if no better-qualified volunteers show up.
