Combat Cliff RP!
Across the fantasical land of Altruica (all-TRUE-ick-ah), Dimidiae-level students (elementary-highschool) are preparing for the friendly competition to take place on Combat Cliff. The teams:
Topazes
Team colors: yellow and black.
Favored weapon: A sword with a thick blade and capped end (no killing or maiming or you loose your desert privilages!!!)
Captain: Undecided.
Co-Captain: Keen Scartington (my charrie to come)
Base: An old Pre-school building, hidden within a patch of woods under the huge shadow of the looming cliff.
Rubies
Team colors: Red and black.
Favored weapon: A long staff that can be held in the middle or on either end, with a small ruby embedded in one end.
Captain: Tamala Camelia (pre-ordained charrie: felt like we need some leadership in case no one steps up).
Co-Captain: Undecided.
Base: A collection of bright red tents close to the cliff's rocky edges, separated from the main combat feild by a thin layer of scraggly trees.
Each team is divided into stratigests, archerers (with dull arrows meant to only confuse/bruise/knock of guard the opposing team), and fighters. Most of the caves in the cliff such as Archerer's Ambush and other such craggs are fair game for skirmishes, ambushes, spying, and more.
Rules:
If someone is seriously injured (broken bone other than fingers/toes, concussion, etc. Sprained ankle? You're fine, get some ice on it and keep fighting!), a momentary truce between the injured and his/her opponent while nearby teammates help him/her up to Team's Ledge, halfway up the cliff.
Stratigests can only fight if their base is attacked.
Treasureman's Cave, sitiuated near the top of Combat Cliff, is ABSOLUTELY BANNED and NO ONE is allowed in it because of it's unsafeness.
If someone disobeys rules, teachers and coaches are standing by to help up in the cliff's HQ building on the summit.

A couple other things. Stratigests carry messages, "scope out" the other team's base (it's pretty much spying), and always have people at their base there to answer questions, help with smaller medical issues (broken digits, sprained wrists, cuts, etc.), negotiate prisoner tradings, guard "prisons,"and pretty much keep track of the battle and plan their way into victory.
The game is one when one team breaks through the other's defences and overwhelms their opponents, taking over the base and preferably capturing the team captain.

I reserve captain for Topazes!

Name: Flynn Zekrar
Age: 12
Appearance: Tall, thin. Wears a carelessly put on suit of black robes.
Personality: Smart, but is denied listeners because of his stutter. He is usualy sick, and looks very cold most of the time. People being mean to him has hardened him, and he ia a cruel and ruthless person in command.
Team: Topaz
Position: Stratagist
Powers: holographs and illusions. These only work for breif distractions, as they look blue and insubstantional. However, they make a good board for chess, or his favorite five-board chess.
Other: How are the captains elected or found? By being a stratagist, is he a captain?
(August 19, 2016 - 8:37 am)
Captains r usually strategists and picked by the supervisors/coaches (oh the amazingness of fantastical combat PE). Co-Captians are most often picked by team voting.
(August 19, 2016 - 4:23 pm)
Team Topaz please!
(August 19, 2016 - 9:05 am)
Whoo-hoo!
Name: Kendall Roon
Age: 17
Appearance: Thick, hazel colored hair with golden highlights. Is curly. Kendall keeps it in a ponytail.
Personality: Rather reserved. Is very passionate about whatever she is doing.
Team: Topaz!
Specialty: Strategist
Powers:
Other: Is Keen's (see Rosebud's post) best friend, and no, she doesn't have a crush on him.
(August 19, 2016 - 3:38 pm)
Oops.
Powers: Minor earth powers.
(August 19, 2016 - 3:41 pm)
Cool!
Name: Elara Tropia
Age: 13
Appearance: She has long, strawberry-blond hair, large blue eyes, and pale skin. She's fairly short for her age (like me, :P) but her agility and smarts make up for that.
Personality: Very amiable to most, good friends with Cleo, and is extremely smart. The downside to her smarts though, is that sometimes it takes her too long to decide which path will have the least amount of consequences for her or her team.
Team: Rubies!!
Specialty: Strategist, please! If I can't have that than archer.
Powers?: I'll think about that ...
Other: N/A?

Name: Elysia Riddler
Age: 13
Appearance: Long black hair in a messy braid, green eyes
Personality: Defiant, short tempered, loyal, doesn't trust easily, strong willed.
Team: Ruby!
Specialty (archerer, fighter, or stratigest?): Fighter
Powers?: Eh.
Other: Not really. Maybe later.
Also, I will probably not be able to post for about a week.

My charries!! If you wanna be a team captain, sure, but you've got to post a lot. "Tamala" team captain for Rubies, can be replaced if you want a spot!
Name: Keen Scartington
Age: 13
Appearance: Flat yellow-blonde hair that ends in a few swirling curls on the edges (he actually has one right in the middle of his forehead!!!) He's pretty short for his age, with pale skin and light eyes, and his face is most often adorned with a good-natured smirk. We-ell...it is usually a good-natured smirk.
Personality: Kind of funny, pretty popular among the students, very impatient, although he can put up with quite a lot/
Team: Topazes.
Specialty (archerer, fighter, or stratigest?): combatant (fighter, but combatant sounds better. If it is, indeed, a word).
Powers?: He wants telekinises, but objects only give a feeble wiggle when he concentrates on them. So, he's still working out his real powers.
Other: Co-captain for Topazes, so he works wiht Flynn a lot.
Name: Amethyst Regaria
Age: 11! And a half.
Appearance: Tall for her age, with waist-length, very thin red-brown hair, dark brown eyes, and a small, playfull smile. She has a few freckles across her nose.
Personality: Sort of shy at first, but once you get to know her, she's playful, fun, slightly witty, and relatively resourceful.
Team: Rubies.
Specialty: Stratigest.
Powers?: She can't exactly fly, but she can sense the air around and sort of pull herself into the air and bob along, pushing off the ground, sort of like she's in water. She also has a sort of telapathy where she can "look through the eyes" of someone else if their minds grant her permission. It's usually a very blurry and inacurate picture, and gives her a killer headache, but it can in communications during the battle.
Other: Her cousin is a Topaz (he goes to one of the Topaz-zoned Dimidiae schools). He is 18 and about to graduate the Dimidae level.
We'll get started probably tomorrow! My usual posting time has become night because I have school all day and rehearsals all evening. I'm usually busy on Saturdays too, but I'll try to stay absolutely committed!!

So Flynn makes holographic maps of the battlefield to help with stratagy. And he is team captain?
Oh, and I should note that Flynn's parents were killed.
(August 19, 2016 - 9:21 pm)
Yup-yup, that sounds good! I guess the coaches see something in him :) Probably because he has great leadership skills. Strict comander+team on alert=VICTORY!
Yeah, I just may be partial to Topazes ;P
