[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]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]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.

Edited by Cazberry Pie: 9/23/2016 11:47:57 AM[b][i]Dojoville//1900 hours//Unknown Mage[/i][/b] [i]The lone figure strolled in cautiously, her silhouette long in the setting sun, elongated, stretched shadows dancing in the evening of the town. The figure was a weary traveler, her brown hair dirty and sweat-plastered, tied back in a ponytail as perspiration ran down the sides of her pale, thin face. She had bright, stunning violet colored eyes, with crimson lights dancing around in them. Her robe was long, reaching halfway past her knees, and glittered with dark violet, maroon, and crimson colors that shifted around the robe rapidly, a fancy trick of the light. Her skin was quite pale, her thin lips slightly parted as she gasped for air. Her once-shiny black boots were now dusty and worn, her black trousers torn and dirty, and her loose, blue shirt was drenched in sweat yet hidden by her robes. The right leg of her trousers were pulled up past her knee, revealing bandages. Her right hand was gripped tightly around a light beige bo staff, which was being used as a crutch of some sort, and she was limping, greatly favoring her left, showing that her right leg was obvious wounded. Hidden in her robes, away from eyesight, was a worn, old spell book, which she kept well hidden. As she entered Dojoville, she looked around, and limped further in. She was looking for a weapons store, and that she found quite quickly; after all, in a place like Dojoville, there's bound to be a couple of massive weaponry stores. She opened the front two doors to the weaponry store, and the sudden, cool air of the air conditioned room blasted at her, and she let out a soft, relieved sigh. She limped into the store, the doors falling shut behind her. The store was quite empty, and very large at that, about the size of a warehouse. Shelves were scattered all around the store, with hundreds of melee weaponry dangling precariously by thin strings, from longswords to katanas, from cutlasses to greatwords. The woman took no notice of all the blades, for she knew that they were well out of her price range. She limped up to the counter at the very back of the store, and laid her six foot long, thin bo staff on the counter top, gently placing her wounded leg on the ground. She winced at the pressure, but grew used to it. She looked at the person behind the desk, a tall, six foot five man, with a face that looked like it had not been shaved for weeks. His calm, blue eyes were piercing, and he had a square jaw, in addition to closely trimmed, dark brown hair. He smiled politely at the woman, before asking:[/i] "Well, what'll it be, miss?" [i]The woman gestured towards her bo staff, her intelligent, deep violet eyes never leaving the man's blue ones, who stared back, unwavering.[/i] "Take two feet off it, and replace it with a two foot long, titanium blade," [i]She requested, smiling slightly with her pale, thin lips, her eyes still never leaving the man's. The man nodded, and turned away, pulling his gaze from the woman's, who in turn looked away. He took the bo staff, examining it.[/i] "It'll be about an hour," [i]He said, glancing up at the woman. She nodded, and turned, limping towards the exit. She'd be back in an hour to collect her bo staff, and the man would accept payment. She opened the door, the bell on top of the door ringing, and the warm, outside air drifted inside. She stepped out, shutting the door behind her. It was time to waste time.[/i][spoiler]Open![/spoiler]
