THE DOJO

[i] The Dojo. Located on the diverse planet of Tatakai, the Dojo consists of the largest gathering of fighters the universe has ever seen. Men and women from all different cultures, races and worlds come to train, compete and fight together. Many battles have been raged on its soil, but it remains standing. Here, one can write, fight and talk with other writers who seek to create stories with one another. All you have to do is start typing.[/i] [b][i]The New Dojo(JOIN HERE!)[/i][/b] [spoiler]Join our group! Free of charge! I swear! https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Forum/1677784/0/3/0 USE THIS LINK IF THAT OTHER ONE DOES NOT WORK. https://www.bungie.net/en/Groups/Chat?groupId=1677784 Once you pass your test and have joined the group sign here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/215168136/0/0 NOTE: You do not have to be tested to join the dojo. Only to PvP. [/spoiler] [b][i]Who we are[/i][/b] [spoiler] The dojo is an ENTRY LEVEL AND ONE OF THE ONLY PUBLIC RP THREADS. RP is A way of interactive creative writing. Where you can go on adventures, have fights and generally have fun. Think of dungeons and dragons, but its horribly imbalanced since there is not an experience system or dice. Its great! The Dojo loves different opinions, ideas and writing no matter if you are new to RP(roleplay) or extremely experienced. If you have an opinion to share about how to make the dojo better, contact one of the Sensei's that run the place (We would prefer this rather then excessive and unintelligent shit talking). Every work of writing is appreciated and accepted (shitposts…maybe not so much). [/spoiler] [b][i]How we work(list of Admins included)[/i][/b] [spoiler] The dojo is run by a group of Sensei’s. These Sensei’s will make up most of the game changing decisions to benefit The Dojo. BUT Everyone's opinion matters a great deal. So the Sensei’s will make poll’s within the group for the members to vote and decide on big issues/ideas. Even then, the sensei’s will inform the group of changes and decisions made. The list of sensei’s are as follows: Inflatablepants/Pants(GONE ON HIATUS) The God-Eater/Cob Royalblade/Royal Fresh Cazberry/Vio nullCth/Cth And the leader of the dojo union: Tubbs [/spoiler] [b][i]OUR GOAL[/i][/b] [spoiler] At the dojo, we want to provide an amazing place for you to improve on your writing in a fun way. We love new faces, and will accept you as soon as you walk up to the door. We also love other RP threads that have really awesome stuff, and we want to invite them all here so we can have a hub world of sorts. Whether this is through an interdimensional portal, space ships or whatever. We want everyone we can to be a part of this and interact with everyone! This way, you can meet people you never would have met before. If you are a leader of an RP group and are interested in this, please contact me so we can discuss further! I like discussing stuff! [/spoiler] [b][i]RULES[/i][/b] [spoiler]https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/212678270/0/0[/spoiler] [b][i]How to PvP[/i][/b] [spoiler] Player VS Player Is what the dojo is known for. Basically, you can fight each others characters with your own, to see who’s the best or to simply make some kick ass action. Please follow all the rules while you fight, so you can make it as badass as possible. In order to PvP you must be tested by a sensei, or a designated tester of the dojo. You can find out who is a tester by seeing "How we Work." Also, When you fight another player make sure that you always react to their move. The best way to do this is like this. >Have a stanza dedicated to your reaction from you opponents last reply. >Have a stanza dedicated to your attack. If you completely block another opponents attack, its courteous to not attack them within the same reply. This way, you’ll never go wrong. [/spoiler] [b][I]World Creation(Getting started at the Dojo starts here)[/i][/b] [spoiler] This is the most important section for you RP experience. This is where you make your characters, their stories, where they could live. Also, this is where you can create a Faction to participate in the thread, as well as having access to writing for the group(The stories you write do not have to relate to the dojo at all) Bio's(RECCOMENDED) https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/212677641/0/0 Backstory for Characters https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1677784/217556475/0/0 Property Creator https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1677784/220228259/0/0 Writers Hub https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1677784/220575696/0/0 Faction Creator https://www.bungie.net/en/Clan/Post/1677784/222042811/0/0 [/spoiler] [b][i]The Dojo[/i][/b] [spoiler] Physical Appearance https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/212677894/0/0 NOTE: The dojo only uses Mac Cannons for any kind of defense.

    [u]one of kind.[/u] [i]it was nice clear sunny the kind lola liked more than anything. She was on the shorter side about 5'2" with bluish green scaled skin she had two different colored eyes one bluegrey the other bright green and she had long black hair pulled into a braid that went halfway down her back. Lola was simply just taking the time to enjoy the nice weather as she walked along a small dirt path the leads to a small clearing in the woods the reason why she was walking that way was a simple one. She wanted a place where she let her guard down for a bit so she could transform into her dragon form without drawing attention. Cause unlike the rest of them she just a little different. When she get to the clearing she tranforms turning into a very large deep blue dragon. It would be very clear if any were to see her like would notice it right away cause unlike them her body had a strange bio luimencesse to it. Some the scales on her body glow faintly in the sunlight. She stretches out her wings and the undersides of them are able to glow faintly but if she wanted too she could blind someone temporaryly with them. This form of her rarely seen because of it. But she yawns stretching completely in the sunlight slowly dozing off it would be easy for someone to sneak up on her cause she a heavy sleeper but it be would very unwise. Cause she dislikes being followed and people seeing her like this. But she drifts into a heavy sleep not knowing that someone followed her.[/i] [spoiler]you are the person that followed her[/spoiler] [spoiler]open[/spoiler]

        • [b][i]A whole in the fabric.[/i][/b] [i]Along the land of Tatakai, there are many places, hidden among the corners of the world. Many hide in these corners doing suspicious things, many of them dangerous. One of those people is Shalidor. Shalidor walked out in the Ko Rudo mountains as the cold wind blew across his face. He took a strange medallion with him in his pocket. He walked ever closer to a cliff side on the mountains where there were many caves. Once he found a large cave, he walked in discretely and began some strange spell with the medallion. [/i]

            [b][u]Reunion[/u][/b] [u]Just outside Dojoville, Alpha's and Beta's house, 3:34 PM[/u] Alpha was working on his ship, having gotten so close to finishing it that he just decided that he wanted to finish the job. It was delicate work, fixing many of the internal systems found within the cockpit. One of those, the ship's personal transponder, was switched on as he returned some measure of power to the craft. The signal that allowed the Arrowhead and any of the Mercenary-turned-Smugglers associated with it could easily track it, sadly Alpha remained unaware, still working with his head inside a panel. The signal soon resounded throughout space, showing the way for them to find him. ((Open to All, if you ain't Arrowhead, you intercepted the signal))

                • [b][i]Fight Meh[/i][/b] Alright, so it has come to my attention that I have not fought in several weeks. This is unacceptable. So, this is what is going to happen: I want to fight you. Each and every one of you. No bullshit, no spoilers, just a one-on-one fight. Location; the Dojo Arena. Limitations; if it would destroy a large area as collateral, is it really needed in a 1v1? Abilities are welcome. I [b]will[/b] exploit every single thing I can, and I expect you to do the same. Weapons; same as limitations. This will [b]not[/b] be a fight to the death. (Unless you want it to be) I want a link to your character in your first reply. I want to know who I am fighting. I will use Shadow, since I've let her get lazy and sun-tanned. [u]Shadow's Bio[/u] [spoiler][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/175675361/0/0/1]First Page[/url] [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/175676293/0/0/1]Second Page[/url][/spoiler] So, reply, and let's have fun again.

                    [u][i][b]Dojo Arena, 0358 hours[/b][/i][/u] ???: You said they'd be here. ????: Relax, I know what I'm doing. They said they'll be here by four and I believe them. And if they don't, well then it's two more people in Tubbs' old prison. ???: I hope you're right. ????: When have you known me to be wrong? ???: When you said "Hey, this flat screen was a GREAT investment!" ????: Not my fault you dropped it and broke it. ???: Tomato Tomahto. *Two figures sit in the center of the Dojo Arena, the hologram interior made to look like Atlantic city, the room definitely large enough to hold all the large skyscrapers, beaches and pier. They sit on the beach, one in a beach chair and the other on a towel, waiting for the two that the first man promised. Both wear hoods over their faces to hide their identity, as this fight cannot be traced to whoever is under them. The second man seems to check his watch every ten seconds.* ????: Don't be so impatient, they'll be here. And I don't know why YOU'RE nervous, YOU aren't gonna be doing anything but watch my back. ???: True. *The second man finally lays back on the beach chair, waiting for the combatants* [spoiler]Mostly for Diobolikal, but open if you REALLY wanna fight[/spoiler]

                          [i][b]Fear the Locust...[/b][/i] "I can't tell the dream apart from the real world, so I live knowing that one day, death will wake me up." -Damien [b]Damien rushed forward, slamming into his brother with all his might, only to go flying backwards. Lucien was incredibly strong, the strongest of the trio by far... And also the smallest.[/b] [i]"Nice try..."[/i] [b]He scoffed with an amused glint in his pale green eyes as a smile crossed his sun-caked lips.[/b] [i]"You are like a rock..."[/i] [i]"Maybe even a fat cow!"[/i] [b]Lucien scowled as Killian marched up, a swagger in the step of the eldest... He had mischief sprawled across his forehead. He was the trouble maker, the big brother with a taste for all the wrong things in the right places...[/b] [b]Damien chuckled as Killian lowered a hand to help him up, only to pull it back when Damien tried to catch it.[/b] [i]"Too slow..."[/i] [b]Damien's fiery blue stare ran ablaze as he shot to his feet in defiance, lowering himself to pounce on his twin... But Killian was quick, incredibly so, dashing away as Damien rushed after, laughter filling the air as Lucien stood, calm and rigid. Someone had to be level headed...[/b] [b]Not far away, Valerie Lordan sat with her straw doll, swinging from the tire swing her uncle had built, watching the triplets... She wasn't one for rough housing... Unlike her brothers, she had inherited her mother's looks, taking on wavy black hair and deep blue eyes that matched fair skin. The brothers had all taken on the looks of their father with blonde, out of control hair, and more tanned skin...[/b] [i]"Damien, Killian! Your father is on his way!"[/i] [b]A big man shouted from the porch, his plump cheeks and bald head glistening with sweat from yard work. Enoch... Their uncle. He was a tall man, about 6'1, and a large one at that. He had a round belly with bulky arms and a bright smile... But now... He wasn't smiling. Enoch had been fighting for custody of the family for years, just recently getting Lucien and Valerie... But Damien and Killian still lived with their father...[/b] [b]Damien frowned internally at the mention of his father... He still wore the bruises of his dad's last drunken strikes across his back. Welts and bruises the sizes of baseballs...[/b] [i]"You are lucky... Dad is never as nice as Enoch..."[/i] [b]Damien remarked to Lucien, giving him a hopeless stare. Lucien said nothing, but merely nodded. He had moved in only a few months ago... But his legs and mind still remembered the abuse.[/b] [i]"Well... Better get our things..."[/i] // [b]An hour passed before a man pulled up in a rusty red pick up truck, a heavily bearded man in a tank top driving the vehicle. His long almost curly hair poked out on all sides and he had a hostile glint to his pale green gaze. He whistled a sharp sound and made a small motion to Damien and Killian, who now held their suitcases. They wouldn't say goodbye to their uncle and siblings... It was too difficult. This was the only week they'd get with them for another year... Damien shot his uncle one last empty stare, the big man unable to hold his gaze, before he set off... Walking towards another year of bruises...[/b] // [b]Damien woke up in a cold sweat, his body drenched... He felt sick... Like a fever had claimed what was left of his body.[/b] [b]He slowly got up, pulling away the sheet of his cot, and standing in the cold night air. He eventually slipped on some jeans and a white t-shirt, walking outside into the cold desert air. He pulled a cigarette from a pocket, as all his pants had, and lit it with a small silver lighter. He stood outside the tent of the small camp he and his crew had made. Three tents, some tables and crates, and plenty of other things.[/b] [b]The low light from his cigarette caused his lower metal jaw to shimmer, and his yellow eyes to sheen. So much had happened now these few short years... [/b] [b]He sighed before a small insect startled him, no... Not small... Massive. A grasshopper. Damien hated grasshoppers... His own childhood fear. Long ago his father had locked him in basement full of the horrible creatures... Damien shook away the thought and crushed the creature under a metal foot. Then a small chirp startled him once more... Another grasshopper... Disgusting... Then... Another... And...[/b] [i]"Psst. Lordan."[/i] [b]Damien tried, he really did. But he wasn't fast enough. It took a mere second before the fist connected with his skull sending him toppling over.[/b] [i]"Ouch... Keep him alive, Creed. He needs to watch."[/i] [i]"Calm down, he's alive..."[/i] [b]Standing over Damien now, was a massive being... Easily eleven feet in heigh, covered in head to toe with metal plating... His red sensors bore into the smaller man as a large fist pummeled down into his chest, knocking the air out of Damien.[/b] [spoiler]https://i.imgur.com/poTH3VM[/spoiler] [b]Meanwhile, two more figures watched quietly, until a gunshot rang out and clipped the shoulder of the metal man. Sabre and Rook were awake, and now the other members of Omicron were too...[/b] [i]"Its Creed! Weapons free! Kill the fūcker and protect Damien! Don't let them control him!"[/i] [b]Rook began to unload his two handguns, Joker and Glitch eventually coming out over their tents, half dressed, carrying machine guns... But the bullets didn't matter. They pinged off the metal man like they were nothing.[/b] [i]"Creed... Handle them... I'll 'help' Damien..."[/i] [b]The second newcomer was a man dressed in sack cloth, with opaque white eyes. His face was made of burlap stitching with two gas filter protruding from either side of his jaws. He lowered down to Damien, a grin across his stitched mouth as he began to speak.[/b] [spoiler]https://i.imgur.com/h8JXm06[/spoiler] [i]"I wonder how much it takes to break a man like you..."[/i] [i]"Get away from him!"[/i] [b]Sabre rushed forward, only to be met instantaneously with a slice that severed his torso from his lower half. The metal man had moved at a speed the human eye couldn't follow. Rook tried to back away only to get punched into a table. Joker charged forward, the biggest of the crew, only to get tossed like a ragdoll far away.[/b] [b]Damien could barely move... Everything ached as his dazed mind tried to take in everything that was happening. His eyes began to water as he watched his teammates get knocked around. One after another the Omicron members were defeated.[/b] [i]"Boss!"[/i] [b]Glitch tried to push forward only to meet a metal fist that crashed into his helmet and pushed through the other side. Four highly trained military operatives taken down in... Moments...[/b] [i]"Hurry it up, there are two not here..."[/i] [b]The robed man nodded as he crouched over Damien.[/b] [i]"You think we didn't know? No... We knew... Now... We have found you... And we will make you suffer like the dog you are. No one will remember you... No one will care. Everyone here barely knows you... You'll die like your stupid wife... A failure. I'll send you right back into the dream."[/i] [b]Salem rose to his feet, motioning to the small figure next to him wearing a red cloak.[/b] [i]"Amaterasu... Show Mister Lordan something special... A million times over."[/i] [b]Damien's eyes widened in terror as he scrambled to get up only to be pushed down by Creed's large metal foot.[/b] [b]A flash of yellow escaped the cloaked figures hood as Damien's eyes met theirs. Salem merely watched as Damien slipped away, slowly pulled back into his worst nightmare.[/b] [b]But Damien refused. He was tired of being unable to tell reality apart from fantasy... And so... As images of his wife's death, his abusive past, and the destruction of home whipped through his mind he began to breath very slow. He wouldn't last long. These thoughts would kill him painfully... Slowly...[/b] [b]Two beats. Two beats... One beat. One beat... Damien wouldn't play their game. He was too weak. Salem, Creed... They could win for all he cared... Two beats, two beats... One beat, one beat... His heart began to slow... Half a beat... Damien was slowing his heart rate. No beat, no beat... And then... His heart gave out... Stopping altogether.[/b] [i]"Not vital signs... Suicide by heart failure..."[/i] [i]"Shame... He was going to meet his father again..."[/i] [b]Salem said sadistically, patting Amaterasu's back as he looked at the scattered bodies. The trio looked around at the handiwork, Creed eventually walking around, setting fire to the camp... Soon there would just be ashes...[/b] [i]"All that's left is the boy and the sharpshooter..."[/i] [i]"They'll know we are coming..."[/i] [i]"That's what we want."[/i] [spoiler]Closed. Open to critiques and comments though! Just a look at my villains and what's to come.[/spoiler]

                            [b][u]Toast to The Dead | Mountains over Dojoville[/u][/b] [i]Here’s a toast to the dead If you don’t drink, smoke to the head For the freedom fighters killed by the feds For those who died hard in the streets soaking in red And died slow asleep in a dream choking in bed Here’s a toast to the dead for my enemies that are gone I’m not a coward so, celebrating that would be wrong I pray to God that your soul will come back again So I can see you in the next life and finish it then A toast to the dead for criminals, burning in hell I wonder how many presidents are burning as well -Immortal Technique[/i] "C'mon, you can do better than that," the older man said with a slight smile. "Again." Their [i]bokkens[/i] crashed into one another as the young man whirled around with an angry fire in his eyes. The boy's opponent saw this flare of anger and tapped into it, noticing the boy's rushed footwork and shooting a paint round into his knee. A newer splash of red cracked open on the younger man's leg, his elder's wooden sword soon creating a painted red streak across his thigh and chest in a swift one-two motion, partially breaking apart the wooden sword that he parried. It was almost as if he had no time to react. "Unfair, Lael. You caught me off guard," the boy sighed as he stopped his advance and stepped a few paces back, readying himself for another sparring match once more. His body was covered in dozens of red splotches from their private training session. Lael had insisted that they slow their training down, but at the same time he was excited due to his new pupil's passion for learning. Though he had yet to know what drove his student's pursuit. Lines and circular splatters of crimson were painted on the young man's fencing jacket, even staining his training pistol's holster a faded vermillion. "Lucien, you get too angry. Such emotion is a powerful driving force, but you cannot let that fire of yours get any more out of control," Lael chuckled in spite of the younger Lucien's skeptical face. "It was a simple miscalculation on my part. I should've been watching your gun hand and disabled it with my own-" "No, it isn't that, my boy. Listen to me: imagine your skill as a piece of metal used by the smiths to create a weapon. Whatever determination you have, use it as fire to temper the blade," the thickly accented Lael explained as he began to circle Lucien, wooden blade raised in one hand and the other poised to draw his sidearm. Lucien began to pace around his opponent as well, weakly raising his sword in two hands. His entire body ached after being bombarded by paint bullets and the blunt force of wooden blades - but he would not rest until he fully mastered the Tribals' Wanderer Discipline. "Stop that shaking, watch your feet. Spaced out just like - yes, good, good. Control that fires of yours - our hunters use only the finest of weapons to hunt down the abominations." With a [i]clack![/i] the two wooden swords collided once before sounding off again, sending red paint flying both ways. During their trade, Lael quickly drew his sidearm and prepared to fire it point-blank, but his draw was interrupted by a step inwards followed by an elbow strike to the solar plexus from Lucien. Gasping for air, Lael attempted to retreat whilst being pressured by Lucien's blade every step of the way. With two slashes from Lucien came three more shots from his sidearm, every attack connecting and leaving a nasty welt beneath a splatter of paint. He moved like a shadow of death itself, so fast it was like he merely phased through each blow Lael tried to send towards him. "I concede!" Lael coughed while laughing. Lucien's blade slammed across his left knee, sending him to one as he was surprised. Two more shots were planted in his collarbone, one placed soon after on his cheek - dangerously close to his eye. Any higher and he would've gone blind. The storm of red paint continued as Lael attempted to defend himself, more in shock at his student's ferocity. He was dumbfounded until he saw something that unnerved him in Lucien's eyes. That fire from before was now a fully-fledged inferno within his pupils, a light that only a madman would use. "Lucien, enough!" he said as his student's sword came flying towards his windpipe, stopped just in time. Silence reigned for what seemed to be hours contained in heartbeat. That look of madness in the young Lucien's eyes dimmed as he suddenly realized what he had done. Immediately dropping his weapons and offering a hand, he began to apologize, "Dear God, I'm so sorry Lael. I didn't mean to -" "No, lad. It's quite alright," Lael said with a slight laugh to hide his creeping fear. "It's my own fault for not being able to keep up. Would you like at that, eh? The student standing over the master with a blade at his throat. Spectacular!" A fit of coughing overcame Lael as Lucien helped him up. There was something hidden deep within his pupil, Lael knew that. But what it was would terrify him to his core if he knew right then and there. So he laughed it off instead, denying his own wariness, "Good Lord, boy. You fight a damn demon yourself." ~~~ It was early morning. Tesuto was nowhere in sight, so Lucien decided to train. After all, the nightmares of the night before still plagued him. Reliving his memories with the Tribals were bittersweet more than anything. It had been a few days from his arrival at the Dojo. After the two massacres at the hands of the alleged "Venom" mercenaries (as Ronin called them), he already had his hands full in this strange new place. So what better an exercise than training to keep his mind in order? Beneath the shade of a large tree he began to spar an imaginary opponent, whirling back in a deadly tornado of faux gunshots and slashes into the air. Any onlooker wouldn't see the single tear falling down his face as he remembered the exact same moves his mentor taught him, soon lost within the many beads of sweat.

The heavy clanking of boots could be heard patrolling the city as a massive figure patrolled the streets in the moonlight, his booming shadow concealing the stone beneath him. [/b] [b]To describe the man, he was an absolute giant, to say the least, as his hulking figure stood at a height of twelve foot seven, while his muscular body was hidden away by a dirty grey shirt, complemented by a massive pair of jeans. The being's body was extremely weathered and battle-scarred, with deeply tanned skin and bulging muscles, as if he had the strength of lifting a literal tank. His head was shaven bald, while a two foot long braided beard protruded from his chin, grey and old just like him. The man bore literally no weaponry upon him, other than the massive fists that were clenched tightly and hung at his side. He would be using them soon, for he would bear witness to something terrible. [/b] [b]As he proceeded onwards with his nightly stroll, the massive giant of a man then heard what sounded like flesh being torn through, and bones being crushed by something particularly strong. His eyes scrounging up in a look of seriousness, he began to make his way towards the disturbing noises, until he found himself upon a gristly sight. In the center of a street was a massacre; several crushed and bloodied bodies of men, women, and even children were scattered across the street, guts and brain matter already spread around the area. And standing in the middle of it was a figure covered in blood and gore, a maniacal laugh escaping his mouth as he turned towards the direction of the hulking figure. His burly body was engulfed in a thick grey robe, adorned with shining metals and trinkets for some odd reason. His laced up leather gauntlets and boots were splattered with blood, similar to the massive wooden and steel wheel that he held in his right hand. His face had a square-like structure, with a large nose and a slight stubble of a beard appearing upon his chin. His messy blonde hair engulfed where his eyes should have been, yet there were no eyes; simply sockets, as if they had been ripped out long ago. [/b] [i]"ARE YOU PROUD OF ME NOW, MASTER?!"[/i] [b]The man suddenly screeched, a laughter of pure madness escaping his throat afterwards. He turned towards the giant, beginning to charge wildly and beginning to scream even more.[/b] [i]"...Damn fool. Ya dun't know what ya even doin, ya fookin lunatic!"[/i] [b]Balthazar groaned in disgust at the sight of the Executioner, before aiming a swift kick straight towards the blind man. From combat experience and knowing his own strength, he knew it would only send the man back. And as the foot slammed into Daniel, it did exactly that; he skidded across the ground and fell over, while a small trinket fell from his robe's pocket.[/b] [b]The trinket appeared to be a wooden and metal music box, weathered and one yet looked as if it had been deeply cared for in the distant past. The frame of the box slammed into the stony ground, it's wooden pieces shattering suddenly at its impact with the ground. [/b] [b]And that's when the Executioner lost himself to his madness.[/b] [b]A sudden roar, which transformed into an ear-piercing scream, escaped the throat of Daniel, as if his very vocal cords were being ripped to shreds. Suddenly, a faint yellow light surrounded his body as the sounds of bone and muscle growing and creaking could be heard, more screams and yells of intense pain sounding from Daniel's mouth before it became more animalistic and canine, with a doglike snout and jagged, monstrous teeth. His clothing was shredded as his chest and legs expanded, bones snapping and expanding until his stood at a height of eleven foot ten, his fingers transforming into crooked claws with bony nails. One last roar escaped the monster's throat - before he stared straight towards Balthazar.[/b] [i]"Ya ugleh sonuva bitch. I'll hafta put ya out of ya misery at this point.."[/i] [b]Within the hulking giant's voice was a tint of apparent grief, as he did not want to end the previous man's life. But he has to do what he had to do. Balthazar tightened his fists and raised them up high, roaring as both he and the Cleric Beast that was once Daniel charged straight towards each other.[/b] [i]"Hraaaaaaagh!!!"[/i] (Open. I probably fukin ruined Balthazar and made Po depressed because I can't even RP with his character ;-;)
