[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)

Plumes of smoke rising from within the Dojo as the onslaught by multiple varying factions was paired with great screams of innocents and the chaotic crescendo of gunfire, swords on swords sending sparks into the air, and great explosions sending debris reeling across the land. But outside of the Dojo, the snow fell in a picturesque fashion, slowly and calming, making thick white powder rise on the craggy mountain steeps. A caravan rode through this, on the ground great lions with golden manes and bounding legs sprinted towards the sounds of warfare far off. Above, huge drakes with leathered skin and three wings in the shape of honed sickles ripped through the sky, men of flowing cloth fluttering behind mounted atop the beasts. Far behind, a monolithic beast wades through the snow, sending tremors across the mountainspine of Ko Rudo and great avalanches onto rural hamlets below. At the forefront of this huge armada made up of mythic creatures of all varieties is a direwolf with a copper hide the height of the Dojo's famed walls, grotesque in muscularity and horrible, disfiguring gashes across its face and torso. Atop it is a man in onyx armor with black sashes that stretched down to his mount's knees, an infernal coal complexion within the cracks of armor platings. He wore a helm fashioned in the way of the Knights of old, obscuring the entire face with holes to breathe. On his back is a bulwark great and long, spanning the entirety of his body, spikes the length of pole arms protruding from a metal sheen. At his side a sword of two edges split by an orb of cracking yellow electricity, lightning running over either end. As his wolf bound across a distant hill and saw the Dojo in the distance, he roared with the very might of thunder itself, quaking the earth around him as he pointed his sword forward, eyes dull and distant except for swirling flame. [spoiler]Closed. Heh.[/spoiler]
