[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]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.

"A World of Hell and Sin." [b]Dojo Outskirts. 2200 =====================[/b] "You said this place was somewhat intact" A woman spoke, yelling towards one of her many followers. One responded, a woman; "Well, I was wrong. Its evacuated, which means we have plenty of time to go ahead and loot it all." Smirking then, the leader gestured for the party to move forward. With Dojo in a chaotic and oppressed time, it left it all ripe for the taking, and several groups of bandits had taken that into consideration. One group in particular went after the rich side of town, knowing it was a risk, but knew it was also abandoned. The upper class of any city would evacuate to summer homes and the like, not wanting to be caught up in it all. Nikkei took advantage of it, and brought along her entire band of thieves and bandits, which went under the simple name of "Damnation". Motioning to Rose, she sent the second half of the group forward. Rose being her second in command, as well as significant other, she trusted the the girl with the task. Leading them forward, Rose was easily identifiable, mostly because of the tattoo on her right arm; a sword pointed down from her towards her elbow, graced in vines with small thorns, at the bottom read the word "Thorn" in Latin. Dressed to match the already [i]pointy[/i] tattoo, she wore a sleeveless vest over a similar white shirt, black pants and boots. Short, pixie cut auburn hair, and silver eyes laced with specks of red, an odd but amazing mutation. Motioning for a few to go forward, she held her rifle in hand, a trick weapon capable of either its standardized rifle form, short sword, or a short spear. All that was needed was for this haul to go off without a hitch, but everyone knew it wouldn't. Mansions wouldn't be left unprotected, alarms and safety systems all linked to the NHPD. They where ready however. Leaving the main street of the entire neighborhood, Rose lead the group towards a mansion marked [i]3347[/i], its address. Stark whiter with gilded doorknobs and fancified glass windows, the whole thing was dark on the inside, driveways empty of everything aside from a few cars left behind. No chimneys or other ways in where seen, which means the standard method of either picking or breaking a lock, or a window. That would be a- "ROSE! Backdoor, its unlocked!" -not a challenge. Going around the back, the man that yelled it wasn't wrong. Opening the door, she went inside, and then motioned for the others to follow. Now is where the fun began. Ten or so people began carrying all sorts of items out, ranging from Tv's to consoles, computers and other expensive items, even the doorknobs. Nothing that was valuable would be left behind, Rose made sure of it. It took an hour to go through the entire house, and by the end it was just about stripped bare of valuables. It wouldn't be destroyed or torched, yet left barren instead. With it over, the small party had enough to last months in cash and loot, but they wouldn't stop there. The next night they would be back, but it all depended on how Nikkei's side of it went. Raising a hand held radio, Rose hailed her lover, needing an answer in a hushed whisper. Even if it was empty, it was a force of habit not to make noise. "Nick, house is done, heading back to the Rig, how's you're end." Silence ensued for a bit, before Rose repeated it. Then a bit longer before worry set in did Nikkei reply. "House is looted, John set off an alarm, police will be here soon. 15 minutes, we need to go." Nodding to no one in particular, she hit a button on radio, which let a beep be heard on Nikkei's end for confirmation. Waving a hand in a circular motion, a few people echoed the order, silence was needed now and caution to be taken. The looted supplies dragged off to a massive semi truck, looking decked for war and towing a massive trailer. The massive vehicle was farther down the street in a round-about, for each exit. On it they set about all the loot. Strapping it down and laying out blankets and ways to protect valuables. Ten minutes went by then, before the first of Nikkei's party showed up, carrying a few valuables. Slowly the rest appeared, and began laying it all out on the trailer. The rest of the space on it taken up by a lot of the same loot as Rose's group brought. Another item followed as well; only heard at first, as the sound of a V8. Rose knew already who brought it, and went to greet the blond bombshell that she called a lover. Nikkei's face sat behind the glass of the driver side, beaming in a wide grin, rolling down the window of the cherry red Ferrari. "Found the keys on the dining room table, decided it wouldn't be too hard to take." Grinning wildly, she stepped from it, the door opening in a suicide style, waving for Rose to get in, and then Nikkei spoke again. "Something to match you're colorful name, I guess. Just don't trash the thing yet." In a look of awe and shock, Rose ran her hands across the interior detailing; leather and engraved in some places. Speaking then; "You know, this is why I love you. The small gifts always make it worth while~" They both grinned, and then Rose pushed Nikkei away, to get going. "Get going you, make sure Sammy doesn't crash the rig." Beaming like a kid given candy, Nikkei left, and then Rose closed the door. Taking out the parking brake, and shooting her foot down, the engine purred and then roared like a lion, and the brown haired girl grinned. What no one realised, was the sirens in the distance. [spoiler]Intro or something I guess, feel free to intervene as part of or working with the police, or help in the little raid.[/spoiler]
