| A small sly grin appeared on Sparda's face as he continued to stand there, unmoving. Sybur didn't seem to be very capable in the arts of combat. He'd have to teach a painful lesson to this child. He stared calmly with those dark brown eyes of his as Sybur wasted his time showing off his moves with the pole.
At last, his opponent made his movie, swinging the pole down at the ground. The moment it made contact, Sparda could hear the plates underneath him beginning to shudder and break apart as two massive waves of earth on both sides of him seemed to rise up, ready to crush him into oblivion. Unfortunately for Sybur, however, this was easily remedied. Too easily remedied, in fact. Without any apparent reason, the walls suddenly stopped in their tracks before they could crush Sparda and returned back to the earth, as if nothing had happened. The grin on his face grew wider as Sparda took a single step forward, causing the earth to shake a bit. It was quite amazing to see that the simplest thought allowed his psychokinesis to work with extraordinary effectiveness and accuracy. With each powerful mental wave he emitted, he negated the attack completely, hardly wasting any time or energy. He took another step forward. |

Concept: Make use of the weapon that is provided for you against your opponent in a 'no magic' arena. With weapons ranging from swords to axes to maxes to daggers, fighters are forced to delve deep into weapon mechanics and physics without the usual aid of supernatural powers. Therefore, it is necessary to also incorporate weapon weight and size into mind when striking at an opponent. This tournament will measure not only your ability to manipulate and comprehend words but also to think critically in unique situations using different types of weapons. The implemention of the "No Armor" rule will also be made into effect to increase the challenge and fun factors of the fights. Participants: 1) drizzt do'urden 2) GuardianOni 3) CyroXero 4) Kaijin Surohm 5) Shuyin 6) Elara 7) Dark Silhouette 8) Xeios 9) Cairoi 10) Leon 11) Vulkar 12) Leviathan Roster: 1) drizzt do'urden vs. Leviathan 2) GuardianOni vs. Vulkar 3) Leon vs. Cyro Xero 4) Cairoi vs. Kaijin 5) Shuyin vs. Xeios 6) Dark Silhouette vs. Elara Available weapons for Round 1 that will be randomly distributed to each fight: Mace Pair of Gauntlets *Weapons are subjected to change. Round 1 matches will begin shortly. (Last edited by Sparda on 11-07-05 09:20 PM) |

| I think only Kaijin, Xeo, and Katana know what my answer to this question will be.
In all honesty, I hate the Sunset Waterfall forum. It's always the same thing. Someone whines about their problems and other members fake emotions. "Omg, i'm so sorry!" "Oh no! I hope you get better!" "Don't worry! It's ok! *huggles*". In my opinion, that isn't sympathy/empathy or whatever. That's just bullshit. But yeah. I chose no in the poll...like that will make a difference. The majority will win and the Sunset Waterfall will stay. No biggie. |

Drizzt do'urden vs. Leviathan Weapons: Drizzt has received the Double Sai Item Leviathan has received the Long Spear Item Analysis: Double Sai A unique pair of short daggers. Extraordinarily useful in parrying attacks due to the original designs of the hilt in correspondence to the small blade. Due to the apparent small size and very light weight, the Double Sai allows for very quick and accurate movements. However, what it makes up for in the defense department (if the opponent can use it efficiently), it somewhat lacks in the offense department. The length of the blades of the Double Sais force the user into extremely close melee combat in order to inflict severe damage. While some Sais have been used for throwing, it has been found that this may not be the best technique due to the design of the blade and the possibility that, if off mark, the user will lose one or both of his weapons. It is often very unusual to find a user only using one Sai at a time for the Sai is a weapon that is most often used in pairs. Length of weapon: 15 inches Length of blade: 10 inches Long Spear A truly superior weapon in long distance melee combat. Due to the extraordinarily long pole with a spearhead attached to its end, it is capable of reaching incredible distances. While sometimes difficult to handle, the spear makes for an excellent offense weapon and even defense weapon from a distance. Contrary to popular belief, the pole of the spear is actually very flexible, allowing for not only thrusting moves with the spear head but also several unpredictable counters and parries with the pole of the blade. It has been found that the true master of the spear relies more on the pole of the spear rather than the sharp edge. However, while the spear is very effective from a distance, when forced into short ranged melee combat, the spear literally becomes completely useless, especially if the spear is one of unusually long length (such as the ones found in long spears). Thus, it is often necessary for the user of a long spear to keep his/her opponent at a distance at all times or risking some severe bodily damage. Length of weapon: 5' 9" Length of blade:15 inches Rules: 3 day post limit rule Battles will automatically end after 3 weeks Rule breaking will result in automatic disqualification Terms: Mortal combat No special powers whatsoever Each fighter will be given one week to make their first post in the battle Extensions may be granted, but only a maximum of 2 extensions will be given Arena: Round 1 Default Arena Specifications- 400ft perimeter square Time- Noon (Last edited by Sparda on 10-30-05 12:35 AM) |

Guardian Oni vs. Vulkar Weapons: Guardian Oni has received the Polearm Item Vulkar has received the Broad Sword Item Analysis: PoleArm A truly formidable weapon in long distance melee combat. Due to the extraordinarily long pole with a large blade attached to its end, it is capable of reaching incredible distances. While sometimes difficult to handle, the polearm makes for an excellent offense weapon and even defense weapon from a distance. Contrary to popular belief, the pole of the spear is actually very flexible, allowing for not only slashing moves with the blade but also several unpredictable counters and parries with the pole of the blade. It has been found that the true master of the polearm relies more on the pole of the spear rather than the sharp edge. However, while the polearm is very effective from a distance, when forced into short ranged melee combat, the spear literally becomes completely useless. Thus, it is often necessary for the user of a polearm to keep his/her opponent at a distance at all times or risking some severe bodily damage. While its design is very close to that of a spear, the pole arm is slightly heavier. Also, while the spear is used more for thrusting with tis spearhead, the pole arm is used for slashing at long distances. Length of weapon (including blade): 6' Length of blade: 20 inches Broad Sword A rather common sword found in medievel times, the broad sword is a powerful slashing/stabbing instrument once used by many knights. It has been proven to be a most effective weapon when used specifically for hacking and slashing. Unlike most Eastern swords, Western swords such as the broad sword is very inflexible making it much harder to parry and counter moves. The user of the broad sword most often rely on brute strength in order to effectively strike down the enemy. Unlike the long sword, the broad sword is slightly shorter but sports a wider and thicker blade, making armor-cutting much more effective. Fortunately, the broad sword can be wielded with only one hand leaving the other hand free to aid in any other tasks. The broad sword, overall, is a slightly above average cutting weapon that does not require the user to go extremely close to the opponent in order to deal sufficient harm. However, swinging the sword around nonsensically and or blindly can easily leave the user fatigued and exhausted in a matter of minutes. Length of weapon: 4' Length of blade: 3'5" Rules: 3 day post limit rule Battles will automatically end after 3 weeks Rule breaking will result in automatic disqualification Terms: Mortal combat No special powers whatsoever Each fighter will be given one week to make their first post in the battle Extensions may be granted, but only a maximum of 2 extensions will be given Arena: Round 1 Default Arena Specifications- 400ft perimeter square Time- Noon |

| Actually, Xeios, i didn't purposefully put you two together. THe way the match ups were determined was by placing the person who signed up the earlierst with the person who signed up the latest. Drizzt signed up first, Leviathan signed up last. They were placed together. GuardianOni was second to sign up, vulkar was second to last. Etc.
Making each thread is very hard work since I must also provide a description for each weapon. Therefore, you can expect me to post 2 matchups per night. |

Leon vs. Cyro Xero Weapons: Leon has received the Bladed Nunchakus Item Cyro Xero has received the Rapier Item Analysis: Bladed Nunchakus The Bladed Nunchakus are truly a very interesting and unique weapon. Much like an ordinary nunchaku with two short sticks attached together at the ends by a long (or short) chain or string. When used properly, the nunchakus are terrifyingly fast and extraordinarily unpredictable; the bladed nunchakus are no exception to this. The Bladed Nunchakus are basically normaly nunchakus but with a small blade device attached the opposite ends of the sticks (the style in which the blades are attached are much like that of a polearm). The addition of the blades increases the ferocity of the weapon but also makes it more dangerous to handle since the nunchakus often require an exceedingly large amount of momentum in order to deal sufficient damage to an opponent. In order to build up this momentum, the nunchakus is often swung around various parts of the body in a very fluent motion. However, the blades on the nunchakus make this much more difficult to execute, especially if the opponent is under pressure. A very quick and strong weapon, it fails in almost all aspects of defense since a single blow can often destroy the momentum gained by the weapon. Length of Weapon (including blade and with weapon extended to full length): 40 inches Rapier A rapier is a relatively slender (blade 2.5 centimetres or less in width), sharply pointed sword with a blade at least 90 centimetres in length, often sporting an elaborate hilt and hand-guard. A rapier is capable of both cutting and thrusting attacks, but the thrust is the main attack in all rapier fighting styles. Unlike medieval broad and long swords, a full horizontal/vertical slash is not as easy to execute with the rapier due to the design of the hilt and blade. The rapier is more capable in terms of thrusts and quick high strikes. What the rapier somewhat lacks in its offense department when compared to some other European swords, it makes up for in the defense department. The design of the hilt protects the hand of the owner from most sword strikes while providing the user with easier handling. The rapier is quite light when compared to its medieval counterparts so it is very easy to wield. When used properly, the rapier can also be used for quick parries and counters due to the sleek design of the blade. Rules: 3 day post limit rule Battles will automatically end after 3 weeks Rule breaking will result in automatic disqualification Terms: Mortal combat No special powers whatsoever Each fighter will be given one week to make their first post in the battle Extensions may be granted, but only a maximum of 2 extensions will be given Arena: Round 1 Default Arena Specifications- 400ft perimeter square Time- Noon |

Kaijin vs. Cairoi Items: Kaijin has received the Single Edged War Axe Item Cairoi has received the Flail Item Analysis: Single Edged War Axe A ferocious weapon used only by the strongest of warriors, the Single Edged War Axe is truly a formidable instrument of death...when used properly. The War Axe is extraordinarily heavy and difficult to wield. As a result, few warriors have ever attempted to use the war axe in battle. However, if the user were to be of great strength or possessed knowledge of weaponry momentum, then the war axe would be an unstoppable weapon. It is nearly impossible to wield the War Axe with just one hand due to its weight. Where the War Axe fails in defense and speed, it excels above most others in attack strength. It has been proven that a single well placed strike with a war axe can decimate the opponent, rip through shields, and render armor useless...if the user can use it properly that is... Length of weapon (including edge of axe): 5 feet Length of blade: 36 inches Weight of weapon: 295 lbs Note: Most of weight is concentrated in blade Flail The flail is a medieval weapon made of one (or more) spiked metal balls attached to a handle with a hinge or chain. There is some disagreement over the names for this weapon; the terms "morning star," and even "mace" are variously applied, though these can be used to describe other weapons, which are very different in usage from a weapon with a hinge or chain, commonly used in Europe from the 13th century to the 15th century. Its primary virtue comes from the fact that it is difficult to parry, and can curve over a shield which would block a straighter weapon. However, the flail was itself a clumsy tool and unwieldy for defense. Some advanced knowledge of weaponry momentum is required for a user to quickly recover from a failed strike since the flail often leaves the user at a massive disadvantage if he/she misses. However, one well placed strike of the flail is often sufficient in tearing the opponent apart due to the length and sharpness of the spikes of the morning star. Full Length of weapon: 40 inches Diameter of Morning Star: 8 inches Length of spikes on Morning Star: 6 inches Length of Chain: 17 inches Rules: 3 day post limit rule Battles will automatically end after 3 weeks Rule breaking will result in automatic disqualification Terms: Mortal combat No special powers whatsoever Each fighter will be given one week to make their first post in the battle Extensions may be granted, but only a maximum of 2 extensions will be given Arena: Round 1 Default Arena Specifications- 400ft perimeter square Time- Noon (Last edited by Sparda on 11-07-05 02:59 AM) |

Shuyin vs. Xeios Items: Shuyin has received the Katana Item Xeios has received the Two Curved Scimitars Item Analysis: Katana It refers to a specific type of curved, single-edged sword traditionally used by the Japanese samurai. The weapon was typically paired with the wakizashi, a similarly made but shorter sword both worn by the members of the buke (bushi) warrior class, it could also be worn with the tanto, an even smaller similarly shaped blade. It is primarily used for cutting (although the chisel-like tip, called the kissaki, allows for thrusting) and can be wielded one- or two-handed, the latter being the most common mode. Very effective in terms of offense and defense. Requires a substantial amount of knowledge of weapon physics and swordplay mechanics in order to be wielded properly. Only provides a single edge which can be used for effective slashing, as opposed to most double edged European swords. Length of weapon: 90 centimeters (90 centimeters is the length of an abnormally long katana. While rare, they do exist. The extra length of blade increases challenge factor.) Two Curved Scimitars Known to be a weapon originating from the Middle East, the scimitar has often been seen in myths and works of fiction. Inaccuracies in history have led people to believe that the Muslims used scimitars during the crusades. Nevertheless, despite historical inaccuracies, there is no doubt that the scimitar is truly a formidable weapon, especially when used in a pair. Fast and sleek, sporting a rather thin blade, the scimitars are capable of rather quick and accurate attacks. Two scimitars can lead to limitless possible combo strikes. However, like the katana, the scimitars are single edged. When compared to its offensive capabilities, its defense is somewhat lacking since it is often required to use both scimitars in order to make an effective block, due to the somewhat awkward design of the blade when taking the defensive. Fortunately, knowledge in weapon physics is not required to a certain degree when wielding the scimitars since they are quite easy to handle and wield offensively. Length of weapon: 25 inches Rules: 3 day post limit rule Battles will automatically end after 3 weeks Rule breaking will result in automatic disqualification Terms: Mortal combat No special powers whatsoever Each fighter will be given one week to make their first post in the battle Extensions may be granted, but only a maximum of 2 extensions will be given Arena: Round 1 Default Arena Specifications- 400ft perimeter square Time- Noon |

Elara Dark Silhouette Items: Elara has received the Mace (Two Handed) Item. Dark Silhouette has received the Gauntlets Item Analysis: Mace An advance on the club, a mace is a wooden, metal-reinforced, or metal shaft, with a head made of steel. The head is normally about or slightly thicker than the diameter of the shaft, shaped with flanges, knobs or spikes to allow greater penetration of armour. While heavier than a regular long sword, it is extremely effective in close range combat, especially against armored foes. A well aimed blow can shatter the bones of an opponent and even crush bronze and iron. Being a two-handed mace, the pole of the 'club' is somewhat longer than unusual. This modification allows for more powerful strikes and swings but also interferes with the ability of the user to react quickly due to the obvious difference in weight. Proper use of this weapon requires an adequate amount of knowledge concerning weapon physics. Length of Weapon: 4 feet Note: Understand that the Mace you are wielding does not possess spikes. It is a common misconception among people. The Mace and the Flail are two different weapons. While the Flail may have spikes on its morning star, the Mace is basically an edged club, reinforced with steel. Spiked Gauntlets Historically, gauntlets were an important piece of armour, since the hands and arms were particularly vulnerable in hand-to-hand combat. Made of reinforced iron, these custom gauntlets possess intimidating spikes on the knuckle and finger area (as shown by the picture). Being a form of gloves as well as armor, it becomes necessary for the user to go hand to hand with the opponent in order to deal any reasonable damage whatsoever. However, the gauntlets can be manuevered rather easily and are not too heavy as to interfere with momentum. A well placed blow can leave an opponent severely injured due to the spikes mentioned earlier. While arguably a piece of armor, this set of custom gauntlets act more like weapons than armor since they are made of iron, not steel. Note on Battle: Some may argue that the Gauntlets are superior in defense and offense since this custom set can be used as both armor and weapon. I took this into consideration and came up with a way to balance it out. The Gauntlets are made of iron, not steel. Therefore, it is possible for the Mace to penetrate the Gauntlets, considering that the Mace is swung accurately and with enough force. Therefore, the Gauntlets do not serve their original intent for defense as much as it does so for its new purpose: offense. However, this does not mean that the Gauntlets are incapable of blocking. It simply implies that they are not effective as they should be in terms of defending like a piece of armor.

CAELESTIS

- from the word caelum, caeli (being a neuter noun) meaning sky, heaven. Yeah, it helps when you actually know the Latin. ^_~ So anyway, before I checked the site, i already had a good idea of what I would find for Sparda. I wasn't all too surprised when there wasn't a SPARDA in the listing since Sparda is a corruption of the name Sparta (being the name of one of the Greek cities, known for their strong military academies and campaigns) or even Sparatcus (which means 'from Sparta'). So yeah. fun stuff. I should look up other names I have. (Last edited by Sparda on 11-13-05 06:24 PM)
