So.
It has been 2 years.
Wow.
Never thought I'd stick around long enough to see this happen.
I know I'm not around much, all of you can testify to that.
Half of you probably dislike me, for various reasons. (The rest don't know me probably.)
Not that I mind. We all have our disagreements.
But I don't want to focus on that now.
TWO FRIKIN YEARS
OVER SIX HUNDRED DAYS!!!!
Three threads, two Lenny Wars, several invasions(even one by me, short as it was), countless fights, over a hundred members, inactive and active, and over two hundred thousand posts.
I first found this place when I checked Agent Missouri's activity when I saw him at the Floodzone Bar. I lurked for a few days, reading the fights. Then I signed up with the ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) Sovereignty as an ambassador to the Digital Dojo.
I showed up, got challenged right away by Salazar.
Oh man, was he the coolest.
He was the tankiest son of a bitch you'll ever meet, but he actually took damage. (Gasp)
Mind you, this was back in the 20-30ks. OP was when you could destroy a galaxy or something.
Sal saw how pitiful my RPing was, so he took me under his wing a bit.
Despite his developing English, we got along pretty well.
He taught me enough that I started to get a big head.
I made a biiig mistake.
I challenged Cobalt to a fight in the arena.
MAAAAAANNN DID I GET STOMPED.
If you can find the fight, you'll see what I mean.
But thanks to that fight, I knew I had to get better.
Since then, I've joined in several quests, tried my hand in making one(of course it failed), and had so many fights I've lost count long ago.
Now, I know I'm nearing the character limit, so I'll finish with this.
Don't be discouraged if you lose a fight. Learn what you did wrong, and fix it.
Don't be a sore loser. In the words of a very wise Jedi Master, "There is always, a bigger fish."
Remember, this is for fun.
So!! Now that I've stopped being sappy, who wants to fight an old version of Shadow? I'll try to respond to you as soon as I can, but life is always a bitch.

[i]Far over yonder a robot gives a wave before walking away, his mechanical chrome sheen glinting in the sunlight as he disappears. To him it would have been rude to not at least say good-bye to the person who helped him find a name for himself- literally.[/i]

*Shadow stares off at him, a wistful smile on her face* "Probably from my future." *The 4th wall then proceeds to slap Shadow*

(its me, Sleek) Jared OLD jared, OP as -blam!-
-
Hahaha!!! Egggcelent. *A figure stands across the courtyard from a wooden circle target, a bow in her arms. Drawing slowly, she lines up with her target, then exhales. Her string sings, and the arrow embeds itself into the center.*
-
Jared rolled his shoulders "I don't have -blam!-ing time for this" He unholstered klink and summoned his keyblade, Counterpoint "let's go bitch!"
-
*A smile flits across her features as she draws her bow again, this time faster than Jared can see. Three arrows are flying towards Jared as soon as he takes a breath after his challenge.*
-
In the same reaction time, his revolver is up and with precision accuracy, he has shot all three, and flak from the leftover explosives in the casing speeds towards you
-
[spoiler]FINALLY A CHALLENGE!!!![/spoiler] *A blur is all that is left behind as Shadow dodges through the flak until she reaches Jared, her knives headed straight for him*
-
Right before she reaches him, he disappears into darkness as he performs a shadow strike on her, bashing her in the back of the head with his keyblade
-
*She slips into his shadow, dodging the attack to reappear across the courtyard* "Haha!! That was quick!" *She sheathed one knife to draw Dusk in its blade form*
-
LETS FIGHT REVENGE FINALLY WOOOOOOOOOOOO
-
"And who might you be?" *A figure meditates on a rock, bathing in the moonlight. Their face is obscured in shadows cast by the sombrero on their head.*
-
WOOOOOOO

I will, do you have a link to her bio?
-
Sure. I haven't updated it in months though.

-
"Hello Shadow." [b]Fortis says. He usually doesn't wield his weapons in public, but today Fortis doesn't seem to care. He is wielding his sword and shield and looks like he is about to use them, even though nothing has been done to provoke him[/b]
-
"Hey there. Looking heavily armed, I see." *She grins up at the man, snapping the book shut*

"You wanna go"she says [i]a small woman with bluish green scales, long black hair pulled into a braid and two different colored eyes one blue grey the other bright green. One the woman's back was a sword that had lightening crackling along the surface of the blade. She was staring right at shadow waiting for a reply.[/i] [spoiler]this is lola not leyla[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Alright.[/spoiler] "If that is what you wish." *A woman sits on a lawn chair, her face obscured by a large sombrero.*
