Respawn Arena

[Nira]

Welcome to the Respawn Arena

The rules are simple enough. You get a D class character that you make on the spot. Give them whatever specialties you want them to have.

Each character gets up to three main weapons and twenty secondary weapons. Hm, feel free to get up to 8 points of augmentations too, if you'd like. Up to six traits and such.

Each character gets up to ten techniques of any sort (releases, perceptions, and stances don't count, mostly due to the next rule...)

Feel free to bypass restriction limits, like 'must have master/500 TP into X' or 'must have X technique'

Also feel free to bypass rank limits, so you may have S rank techniques. You'll still be a D class character, so those handseals are gonna take a while. You'll also run out of chakra ridiculously fast if you use those as a D class guy.

Uh... skills might be needed, dunno. You can have up to 3 auto-mastered skills.

Make animals if you want, same rules, minus augments and traits. They'll be like summons if you make one, so they can have chakra if you want.

When you arrive or respawn, you appear anywhere you like, but show up with a bright white flash. Teleport!

This is just for fun, even playing field where you pit a bunch of respawning D class character against each other. By respawning, I mean you can make a new one if you want, after your current one is killed. Or even use one that you already used. Or steal one! Or make an identical one to someone else! Do all the things!

Uh, what else... Oh, I'll change the setting every once in a while, maybe one a page, just to keep it dynamic, environment-wise.

It's an experiment, so experiment with me!

Now, for the first setting.. something simple...

Wide open plains! Grass up to your ankles!

ooc: Okay, I'll start off with something super simple.

Kesshō no Yoroi (Crystal Release: Crystal Armor) (5 total)
Shōton: Light Satellite (6 total)
Fuuton - Hikō (Wind Release: Flight) up to A (10 total)

---

A bright flash of light, and it began.

Faradel Conners appeared 40 meters up in the air. She performed some handseals as she fell, immediately activating her flight technique.

Thus, alone in the air above the plains, Faradel floated.

A rank used
Fuuton - Hikō (Wind Release: Flight)

Poor: The creature flies as well as a very large bird.
Average: The creature can fly as adroitly as a small bird.
Good: The creature is very agile in the air (like a housefly or a hummingbird), but cannot change direction as readily as those with perfect maneuverability.

"I shall not rest until I have collected 100 souls."

A second flash, revealing the entry of a second contestant.

Romula stepped out of the light, her right hand always upon the hilt of her sheathed sword. The young woman's facial features were completely detached and emotionless. There was nothing here that interested her, her only goal to collect souls. A vengeful spirit taking human form. She looked around the field before her eyes naturally came to the sky, curious to see who would be her opponent.

Bio:
Previously a native of Yuki no Kuni, this kuniochi has since defected to traverse the world in search of her lost lover, despite the fact that he has succumbed to death years prior. She believes that her soul is somewhere out there, waiting...

After a blinding flash of light, I appeared in a temperate area opposed to the tundra land that I had previously trekked though. Across the virid plains that stretched out for miles beyond the gaze of my eye did I walk. There had been no particular reason for me to have been teleported so far into the grasslands; somehow, I thought I would find a clue of my lost lover on some distant boulder or patch of grass or within the sky, swirling above head in a albicant fluff: at this point, I felt almost deranged.. any and everything reminded me of her and I could not shake the emotions of the past.

The Kaishin sword, Shirayuki, which I had stolen from another clan member during my time in Mizu Kuni was strapped upon my back. My outfit had been noticeably black and close fitting in a mechanical suit fashion. Had anyone been within the environ, they would definitely notice me stand out against the tall green blades of grass. I had no reason to hide from anyone; further, had my lover been present---well, I walked in a way that I would not go un-noticed by trying to conceal my whereabouts either by ducking low or stalking through the plains. 

With a less-than-keen sense of observation, I noticed a shadow looming against the floor of the arena. It hadn't appeared to cast the same wanton form of a cloud so instantly my head turned upward to see had my searching been at last complete for my soulmate. There, hovering in the sky had been a woman; it wasn't her, and I immediately felt a sense of letdown and anger in the same turn. What sort of world had I been cast into wherein a woman appeared to be floating above me while I searched for my lost lover? My thoughts would be subdued momentarily, as from my left, I saw a similar flash of blinding light that seemed to transport another female into this region. I couldn't see her too well from the shining rays, but I felt that she looked similar to my past soulmate. Her head would too turn towards the sky as I broke my concentration from her and returned it to share a common stare with this unknown woman as we both watched the floating woman above.

[Nira]

So it starts with three.

After the arrival of the second flash, Faradel began to fall from the sky.

Horizontally, she was about twenty meters from each new arrival. Vertically, she was steadily dropping from forty meters up.

Both other players were in Faradel's sights as she performed a few handseals. Upon completion, a thin layer of crystal formed around Faradel's body. A transparent armor that made her shine beneath the sunlight.

With another small string of handseals, Faradel reactivated her flight technique.

Conners, protected by a sturdy personal fortification, flew towards Romula. Both her fists were out in front of her, with the intent to smash into Romula with the durability of the crystal veil.

Kesshō no Yoroi (Crystal Release: Crystal Armor)
Rank: C
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: This jutsu allows the user to become encased in a thin sheet of crystal to protect them from blunt force trauma. This armor can also aid the user in performing stronger physical attacks. The crystal is transparent and can only be noticed by light reflecting off it.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: None
Description: Pictur e
Forming the needed hand seals, the user encases themselves in a crystalline armor. It is transparent, but is able to reflect light. It has the ability to block two C rank attack plus whatever your skill in Crystallization before breaking, and lends itself to enhancing punching/kicking taijutsu damage by a D rank due to it adding a slight amount of weight to the strike.
Limit: Must know the Crystal Release, and Shōton: Crystallization

SPOILER: Click to show

Up to S
Shōton: Crystallization
Rank: C, B, A, S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows the user to create crystal to varying degrees.
Special: Handseals of the technique it is used with..
Drawback: It is impossible to crystallize electricity, wind, or fire. Any element that lacks a physical presence can not be crystallized. Sound Jutsu will act as if one rank stronger then their designated technique when being pitted against crystal. Sound techniques use their high frequency and vibration qualities to essentially shatter your crystals, as opposed to just break them, if they are geared towards acts of that nature *ie they are meant to damage physically and not some sort of genjutsu or the like*. When calculating damage vs the durability of your crystal, remember to add it together. If one person does an A rank vs you crystal that can withstand S rank, you can only endure one A rank more unless the crystal is redone/fixed which becomes costly.
Description: Using your abilities with the crystal release skill you are able to create crystal either by transforming the particles in the air, or a more prominent substance. The technique is your essential crystal technique. It governs two things: the amount of crystal you can create at once, and the strength of your crystalline constructs. At C rank the user is able to crystallize up to a 5x5 section of material per movement dedicated to the process after handseals. This of course can be edited to be proportionally the same such as a 6x4 meter area etc. Also, when you have this skill at C rank, your crystalline constructs are able to endure C rank damage before shatter. This defensive power stacks with whatever technique this is used with if applicable. As your rank increases so to does this techniques power. At B rank, your ability to crystallize becomes a 10x10 meter area, and its able to withstand up to a B rank. At A rank it increases to 20x20 meters, and is able to withstand up to an A rank amount of damage. At S ranks it increases once more to 40x40 meter area, and again is able to withstand an S rank amount of damage. With this technique the user is able to transport through crystalline structures of their own creation at a speed of 5 meters per movement (kind of like underground fish projectile). This technique is generally used passively within other techniques. This technique also allows a user to somewhat “dismiss” their crystal creations at will. When doing so the crystal seems to basically disintegrate.
Limit: Must have the Crystal release.

Up to A
Fuuton - Hikō (Wind Release: Flight)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: Allows one to “fly” like a bird without the use of wings
Special: Handseals
Drawback: Must learn multiple times
Description: Through use of the Wind release, the user can manipulate the wind around them, allowing for actual flight to take place without the need for wings. But this cannot be done right off the bat. It takes multiple trainings to be done in order for Perfect flight to be obtained.
Clumsy: The creature can barely maneuver at all.
Poor: The creature flies as well as a very large bird.
Average: The creature can fly as adroitly as a small bird.
Good: The creature is very agile in the air (like a housefly or a hummingbird), but cannot change direction as readily as those with perfect maneuverability.
Perfect: The creature can perform almost any aerial maneuver it wishes. It moves through the air as well as humans move over smooth ground.

Limit: Must have Wind Release, Must have 500 TP in Wind Release. Requires Futon: Torihouto

Hand seals...

From a distance, Romula could see hand seals being created by her flying opponent. Considering she was flying, it was not too far a guess to imagine that the girl could use chakra. She did not budge or move, instead her hand falling naturally upon the hilt of her blade. Her eyes did not widen, she remained completely calm and detached as she saw her rushing opponent. So it seemed as if this flying Falafel(lol) had targeted her. Before the flying and crystallized girl would crash into her, the Taijutsu Master vanished into the thin.

Or so it seemed. What she actually did was run out of the way at such a speed that it was simply too much for the eyes to keep track of. She moved in an arc, appeared a few meters away from the flying female. In one smooth movement she whipped her katana out of its sheathe. The movement generated an immense whirlwind which carried blades of chakra within. The fifteen blades flew toward the crystallized individual. The powerful wind ninjutsu was unleashed at a pretty close range, and considering the fact that Faradel was not on the ground, she had nothing to anchor her to the ground. With the current angle at which Romula had appeared and unleashed the bedlam of winds and chakra blades, the crystallized maiden would be sent directly toward the third opponent.

It appeared that the technique which held the woman within the sky had dispelled as she fell closer towards the horizon; I had had my suspicions about this female, who, at the time before, seemed to be an angel. My view would quickly alter as she performed kata--a kunoichi--as a thin fragmented layer of cerise crystal formed about her person. Shoton? I only knew this release, as my former lover had excelled in Doton and talked to me about such an advanced release. Whoever this woman had been, she must have been powerful. Her flight continued as she re-ignited herself into a crystal laden rocket, aimed intently at the other woman who had appeared as my lost soulmate. I did nothing at first, confused by this sudden turn of events; yet my hand extended outward towards the two, longing to embrace the standing kunoichi.

This woman proved to be fast, as she attempted to dodge the flying tackle with an obvious body flicker. Her next movements aroused me. She would whip out her katana and conjure up a whirlwind wherein blades of Futon-augmented chakra resided. It dawned quickly on me that she wasn't who I thought she was, though, for in her attack, she moved in such a way as to send the flying crystal girl towards me. Had she been my former lover, she would have taken that blow for me. I frowned deeply as I now stood in harms way. Perhaps this had been the aura of misfortune I bore, but I constantly found myself in certain situations that called for me to act icy. A shunshin would displace me from in front of the attacking kunoichi and left behind but a blurring vision of me. I performed hand seals and quickly, the dew upon the sod began to rise and mold into a hardened shape from my proficient control over Hyoton. Four ice swallows had been created and immediately were sent after the flying woman from about seven meters away.  I jumped further away from the woman with the katana to ensure that the gap between us had increased to roughly nine meters. I felt more inclined to aid her, but since she had sent that woman my way, I knew that neither one of them could be trusted.
