[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!

[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)

[u]The Abyss of Wonderland[/u] While Chesh had been granted permission to wander Dojoville he had a certain curiosity over a certain dead man and in more particular his spear. Within the Abyss, Chesh wandered in his normal from looking over the place that grants him a strange at times. Pitch black as far as the eyes can see with the exception of a few broken chairs and smashed houses that had fallen when Wonderland was terribly damaged. He then came across the corpse of what was known as Anthony except it was moving, rather snarling and twitching, crawling across the floor. The demons he devoured had finally had freedom and a body to work with. "All that power and no direction...." Chesh muttered to himself while he snuck up and took the spear. "Well at least I can put you down" Once he jammed the spear into Anthony's carcass to his surprise it absorbed him. "So that's why you were so afraid of him!" He looked over, talking to the wounded god left behind in his domain before re-entering reality. He was twirling the dark spear in his hand. Anthony's spirit could be seen in the handle wanting to be released yet Chesh didn't seem to notice. He was just fascinated at his new toy. [spoiler]open kinda. Not sure if many people would know what was going on.[/spoiler]

He chuckles to himself, already examining a new blade he summoned, as he left his last one stuck through Rafael's left shoulder. But then something happens, the very darkness surrounding his figure shifts, and disappears, leaving a frightened looking blond man with grey eyes in a trench coat and jeans. He looks around, he'd scream in terror for what he was forced to do by the darkness that holds him, but his voice is.. Gone.[/i] [spoiler]Open, but preferable that Royal makes an appearance.[/spoiler]

The figure gazed directly at the sun, waiting patiently for news of the victim's condition. The orb materialized. "Good news: he's stable. Bad news: you don't get to obliterate that fiend." The figure looked at the orb and nodded. "The sun is setting. Are you going to follow through with the challenge?" The figure looked back towards the sun and nodded again. "Hmm. You know, you've changed a lot... for the better." The figure took a step and then jumped, disappearing with a soft bang. The figure popped into the arranged location, in front of the Dojo gate. He crossed his legs to sit and levitated to about 2 meters off the ground. A sphere of Void light surrounded him as he settled into waiting meditation.

Edited by A Stormy Dio: 2/4/2017 2:41:18 AM[i]"A Bloody Ship" (Near the Dojo Woods)[/i] "Blasted hell...lucky that the cannons are still working...don't want to be stuck here too long...have to repay old debt before the Riach Legion decide they want to raid whatever's left of Dibier again." Merrick mumbled, fixing up his ship. "Thanix cannons are working, thrusters and FTL drive still working...drinks, food and clothes are refreshed... good; don't want to look like a bloody Vorcha worker on the Syber Mine." He had said to himself, looking at the beauty of his ship, also called the [i]SSV Deimos[/i]. "Damn...see if any of these guys or any hot babes want to join me to Shira XV. Asari might actually dig chicks from here." Merrick had mumbled to himself, sitting on the door to his ship, waiting for someone. [spoiler]Open. Just going to some bazaar on another planet later; might run into some people, learn stuff about the people, etc. :p The picture is of his ship, the [i]SSV Deimos[/i][/spoiler]

[b]The morning war[/b] It was around 0730, when the first two Mig 35s flew through the sky, they were at supersonic speeds, moving quickly through the air. They were painted black with red trim, and the had a foreign nation of origin painted on the sides and wings. They were also combat loaded. The two Migs approached the power plants that supplied power to the energy intensive MAC guns that provided the planet with defense. They launched missiles and bombs, dropping their payload and penetrating the energy shielding that had been in place to prevent this sort of strike from occurring. The two jets, seeing that their strike succeeded, RTBed and made way for the follow on strikes. Next came the fighter bombers, A-10s and SU-25s conducted bombing runs of defensive positions and the barracks of the local defense forces. Next to get hit were the comms stations and towers, anything they thought could broadcast a signal, was leveled and destroyed. It was at this point the ground forces began to deploy, infantry supporting tanks and armored vehicles, artillery, helicopters, these unknown attackers had it all. From the sea came a fleet of 12 warships, one battleship, two destroyers, three cruisers and six frigates. They protected four landing ships that began to send out their landing craft and APCs. The attack achieved surprise, there was nothing the denizens of the dojo could do to change that, but they still had the ability to fight back, but they would need to rally, the enemy had the momentum, and they planed to use it. [spoiler]open, part one of many more to come[/spoiler]

[u]-blam!- you guys, you don't get a title[/u] Stalemate. The invasion forces couldn't press forward anymore. The skies were gone, the ground a bloody graveyard. The stars were forboding, given the number of Dojo ships present and the orbital defenses active. It was a small patch of quiet in the chaos.........until today. Above the Dojo, ten dropships, similar in construction to Osprey VTOLs, uncloaked. They had used the earlier battle to slip in unnoticed, and their back hatches opened up dropping men and women who shimmered and disappeared. After about 200 or so of them had disappeared.........shit hit the fan. Men and Women with varying levels of integration with machinery, and gear using mostly hardlight appeared in the Dojo. They opened fire on whatever they saw, causing chaos where ever they went, easily worth many guards each. __________________________________________ In orbit, the sensors detected a large force approaching, and then 57 slipspace ruptures appeared. Soon, huge ships bearing the emblem of a chess rook arrived. many were small to middling, but some were also much larger than any of the Dojo ships present. The stars were soon blotted out as the invading fleet engaged the Orbital fleets and defenses. The ships were outnumbered, but not outgunned. They bristled with weapons, and there seemed to be a capital ship with a large dish-like weapon mounted into the front of it. Starfighters, bombers, gunships, and boarding craft all exited the vessel. The stars were soon alight woth cannon fire, plasma, and the occasional burst of hardlight. [spoiler]For anyone in the Dojo itself, the first part is for you. The Space fight is for Royal[/spoiler]

"Out Witting the Gods of Modding" [b]Dojo Perimeter, Invading Ground Forces. ========================= The army that had invaded had brought the Dojo to a stalemate, keeping the massive city under lock and key and slowly starving it of outside connection. Any ships flying into the center area being destroyed or shot down when leaving. The fleet that had first appeared, its ground forces had mixed into the army in uniform. The high tech military like faction was filled with heavy weapons and what seemed to be super soldiers, decked in an advanced armor system, with armor known to resist even heavy caliber fire and energy bolts. These super soldiers where known to take hits and still run forward, killing any Dojo Guard left standing. As well, the high tech army was given a name, described as Space Vikings due to the strategies used, support coming from the tanks that had been dropped and the super soldiers being the face of the attack like the Berserkers of old. These Space Vikings set up a massive energy dome over both invading armies, shielding them from any orbital attacks, multiple generates guarded by both armies being used, striking them would be hard if not impossible. Both armies waited, the Viking like invaders seemed to be responding to the uniformed military.[/b]

Ian and the gang walked through the streets of Dojoville. They all seemed to be talking about something. Garin: "The Dojo is that bad. Yes, they may have caused the deaths of millions, but they have good intentions. If we just increased the size of the military-" Ian: "Garin, you don't get it. If the Dojo was disbanded and destroyed, but a military force still remained here, the citizens of Dojoville could live in peace." Harlock: "I agree with Garin. We need to bolster the defense of this planet. That's why so many attacks happen." Dmitri: "I'm going with Ian on this. The Dojo needs to be disbanded." Garin: "Ian, my brother would have seen reason a long time ago. He would have recognized his failure..." Ian: "What are you saying...?" Garin stopped and shook his head. Garin: "You're not my brother." Ian's face contorted with confusion, then sadness, then pure rage. He unsheathed his sword and lunged at Garin, who blocked with ease. [spoiler]open[/spoiler]

"Land, Sea, Soldiers and Tanks" [b]Orbit Above the Planet. ========================= A gaping hole ripped itself into the space near the planet, showing another one, much larger, however a fleet flew through it. The tear sealed then, instantaneous travel, some form of wormhole was used to get the invading fleet to Dojo, the portal itself impossible to back track, no traces of its existence at all. The fleet itself consisted of one massive super carrier, the name "RFS Valhalla" painted into its hull, the large mobile command center being armed with an assortment of weapons and energy shielding, its hull made from an unknown super metals. Its escort consisted if four smaller frigates, five carriers and thousands of fighters. The fleet drifted into the shadow of the planet, using the dark zone for cover, now harder to track and target on radar, and with eyes. The thousands of lights and specs blending in the space and stars of the galaxy. Drop ships descended then, carrying thousands more soldiers, vehicles ranging from to the massive MBT Rhino Land Ship, boasting a MAC cannon for its main weapon and .50 BMG auto guns for infantry, and the Model 4 Hellcat Transport.[/b]

[u]Broken God pt3: cards on the table and a madman to stop.[/u] [spoiler]might make a profile for these guys but for now they are pretty much Chesh's high ranking soldiers[/spoiler] With Vorpal retrieved and the looking Glass underway Chesh called a meeting with his soldiers. A small but incredible army of fifty two warriors of many shapes and sizes stood in line by their respective cards with their leaders, the Aces, standing up front. The small two man group of the jokers also attended. The brothers waiting with the rest not really following any particular order. The attempt to stop Anthony's madness was almost underway. All that was left was the strategy. Chesh sat on his throne, ready to give out orders. [spoiler]still open-ish. I mean they are planning on entering Dojoville to stop Anthony's crazy and there was the whole explosion that sent people into Wonderland. Pretty likely the final portion though.[/spoiler]

Edited by Seven: 1/31/2017 5:41:02 AM[b]S3 Hate the past, and the past hates you Near midnight[/b] [i]Rafael walked throughout the streets of Dojoville. It is very calm. He'd shop, but he has no money as of current. He had Derix stay home, the kid deserved a rest after all. Suddenly, something caught Rafael's eye. A moving shadow... But that's not possible, right? Rafael shakes his head, it can't be who he thinks. They couldn't have crossed into this dimension. To himself, he asks if it is really possible. His thoughts are answered when a cloaked man jumps from the building above, landing on Rafael, though his reflexes were fast enough to barely bring his blades out to protect himself from the attacker. Soon, they force each other up, locking blades. To the dismay of those around them, quickly spells are thrown around. Lighting strikes, fire scorches, and ice freezes the area. Neither of the two speak a word until the other one catches Rafael off guard and stabs him in the chest[/i] "Ah.. Zach. It's been a long time. Or do you not go by that anymore? No matter.. Youll never be who you used to be." [i]The figure kicks Rafael down, chuckling before disappearing into the night[/i] [spoiler]Open[/spoiler]

[i][u]A Mute Newcomer, and Possibly A Duel[/u][/i] [i][u]Dojo Gates, 11:11 AM[/u][/i] [i]She didn't know why she was here in the first place, but...she was here.[/i] [i]The winds whistled through the grey skies as clouds formed above the landscape of Tatakai, as dark clouds covered the heavens above the Dojo and it's mountainous landscape. Raindrops began to fell, nothing too bad however. Eventually, she found herself at the gateway to the Dojo, the wooden and metal doors shut tight.[/i] [i]She didn't predict that they would be closed. Hell, she figured that if you could pick up a sword, you could join these "warriors". She found it funny - gods calling themselves fighters. Bah, it didn't matter: she and her King would defeat them all anyway.[/i] [i]The young woman looked to have been twenty-six or so, standing at a height of exactly five feet and eleven inches tall. A crest-like visor covered her eyes, shielding them from potential harm as rain drizzled off of her pale, angular face and long, dark blue hair. The woman bore clothing that originally suggested that she had originated from an older timeline or something of the sort, as she bore a dark royal blue tunic, black leggings underneath while a deep red cape fell from her shoulders, which were armored with ceramic plating. [/i] [i]She appeared to only wield two weapons in total, as a thirty-eight inch long Damascus steel katana was strapped to her waist tightly. And beside that, a deactivated plasma sword hilt, identical to the metal blade. The pommel was shaped like a tri-dagger's blade, resulting in a sharpened coiled pommel made for heavy damage against flesh.[/i] [i]Luana stood outside for quite a bit, expecting the Samurai, or at least one of the place's testers, to reveal themselves. After silence, she sighed to herself deeply - why was there nobody there to greet her? It didn't matter, she'd just have to draw attention to herself. Silently approaching the massive wooden gates, Luana stared at the structure, before her armored fist knocked upon it. Then, she waited, stepping back from the gate.[/i]

There's a thud in the air. Then another. Then another. Then over the horizon flies a massive black dragon, great and terrible in its glory, with scales like polished ebony and eyes like molten gold, it lands before the gates with an impact that shakes everything around him.

[i]"A Super Soldier, and a Samurai"[/i] [b]========================== A few hours passed, not much happening, until out of nowhere a lightning bolt struck the ground. It was random, unpredictable, what made it weirder was that it was a single bolt, and the portal that opened briefly. On the other side, stood an armored figure, clearly taller than her, armed with a rifle and a pistol. The figure stepped forth then, stepping over the bottom lip of the portal and into the area. It was hard to tell, but the armored person seemed to be a woman, given the all too familiar hip swish and the feminine outline, all the way to how she put her hands on her hips, jutting out a curvy hip as she leaned to a side. It was silent then, the portal closing abruptly, sending the area back into its normal quiet aroma. The woman's armor was grey, a dull military color, with a cobalt blue visor. Silence went on a bit more, then she spoke, sounding young, overly confident or sarcastic, and Irish.[/b] "So, um. Hi!-" [b]She waved, a weird thing to see from an armored figure.[/b] "Yeah, I know, flashy entrance and all, but uh, formalities? My name is Amanda, and I come in peace and all that" [b]She made a hang sign, a split down the middle between her middle and ring fingers, keeping the two paired to the pinky and index fingers.[/b] "So, eh, what happens now...?"

And then I ran in guns-a-blazing, blasting every competitor down to the ground. As I finished killing the last ninja person, I raised my sidearm to the sky and shouted to the heavens, "There can only be one!" Alright, I win. I'm the captain now.
