[u]Balthazar walks calmly towards the battleground. As he walks, He draws a thin but long one-handed sword as a shield fans out from his arm. You can see a massive sword handle protruding from his back, but he makes no effort to draw it. He waves the smaller sword effortlessly, the tip making an audible swishing noise.[/u] I may not be given entrance to the Dojo yet, but there's no use fighting in a pile of rubble. -Passive stance de-engaged- -Combat stance engaged- Might as well get some practice in. [u]Balthazar enters an offensive stance, then dashes into the crowd of soldiers at an inhuman speed. He dashes back and forth, cutting down opponents left and right, their severed limbs flopping onto the ground limply. Bullets can be seen bouncing off of his chrome armor, leaving small blemishes caused by friction.[/u]
