[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!

[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.

[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)

[b][i]Under Siege... Or Maybe Not[/i][/b] [b]1/2 Mile Outside the Dojo Gates[/b] [i]A force had been massing to move on the Dojo for some time, creeping forwards through the undergrowth and brush to their forwards positions. Trenches had been dug, machine gun nests had been established, and the Stryker APCs that they had were camouflaged with branches and debris as they moved up. Scout snipers pushed the front, relaying information back to the troops that followed them, who were in turn followed by the mechanical infantry. Their force numbered near one hundred thousand, all under the command of a single [url=https://cdnb3.artstation.com/p/assets/images/images/000/408/883/large/robbie-mcsweeney-futuristic-sci-fi-soldier-dude-by-robbiemcsweeney-d8568eo.jpg?1421334354]man[/url], who rode atop one of the Strikers. His armor did not bear the insignia of the blood-red cobra, rather, it bore a Prussian Eagle, its white contrasting with his sleek black and grey armor. In his hands, a heavily modified G36K, at his hips, a USP .45 and a large survival blade, and grenades hung from his bandolier. His orders were clear. This was to be a blitzkrieg. Turning his comms on, he ordered the gun trucks and technicals to begin the assault. It was time.[/i] [b]Wilson's Vertibird, Dojo Courtyard[/b] [i]Wolfe appeared before the table where Wilson normally stocked his weapons, and spoke with a tone of urgency.[/i] Wilson, we've got a problem. Get your radio on, Clarkson's been trying to contact you. Alright, alright, yeesh. [i]The Courier said, waving a hand dismissively. Turning on his helmet's integrated communications unit, he tuned into Crow's frequency, after inputting the passcode in to access it. Clarkson spoke in a more militant tone than Wilson had ever heard.[/i] Good, you're on. Atlas is making a move for the Dojo. I'm not quite sure what exactly he's doing but it's most certainly unusual. There's an enemy force massing to push on the gates and the walls over a massive front. Wilson, I want you to get out there, get any help you can, and hold the bloody bast*rds back. Wolfe, I want you to get hold of Rose and the boy, make sure they're safe, mate. I'll be overseeing this, we've got drone feed currently, and I do believe we're into his radio systems, so I'll do my best to keep you lads up to date. Get moving. [i]Crow instructed.[/i] WOOOOOH LET'S GO! [i]Wilson said, sliding his M240B from his back, his M2 locking down into place and chambering a round. This was gonna be fun. Wolfe, on the other hand, drew his sword, and disappeared. He had to get to the girl before they did.[/i] [b]Dojoville, Rose's Flat[/b] [i]Rose still hadn't gotten a name out of the boy, other than Watcher. She'd simply given up, and allowed him to work on his armor in the spare room she had, and he'd been occupied with that for some time. She, on the other hand, had been preparing to head out; putting on her armor and her helmet, when she was thrown back by an explosion above her. Thrown backwards, the armor had saved her from serious damage, but as she looked up, she saw the room filling with a pale yellow gas. Mustard gas was the only thing that crossed her mind, and yet, this was much, much worse. Soon, she heard Watcher yelling, screaming even, and then she saw [url=http://rhubarbes.com/image/148002170477.jpeg]him[/url]. The sickly green glow from his helmet, the shotgun in his hand, the gas grenades all across his chest, his ragged black overcoat. Entering, he paid little mind to Rose, who was in shock, and he grabbed hold of the screaming and flailing teenager, who's eyes were wide and terrified, although he didn't seem concerned about the guy dragging him out. Tossing the boy to the roof, he climbed up after him, and made a hasty escape. So far, the plan was going perfectly. He just hoped Atlas and Konigstiger had planned their ends of the deal well. [/i] [b]Inside the Dojo, Dojoville[/b] [i]Wolfe maneuvered across the rooftops with the grace and agility of a cat, watching the streets below. What struck him was the sound of screaming and gunfire. Below him, another [url=http://pre04.deviantart.net/8229/th/pre/f/2016/295/a/7/inktober_day_21___heartless__tragos__by_tekka_croe-dalwyet.jpg]armored individual[/url] had begun an attack, firing a single revolver into the crowd, a blade at his hip. Three more, matching him, appeared from behind him, moving forwards as he did. With that, Wolfe jumped, his own blade drawn, heading into to fight.[/i] [spoiler]Alright, big post going on here. You have three places to interact. 1. Help Wilson at the gates. Kill stuff and go ham. 2. Help Rose recover and get her to safety The guy is already gone with the kid, though. 3. Help Wolfe fight the dude in white. This one's a toughie. Other than that, open.[/spoiler]
