... This is basically a discussion thread for all things "Battle" related, right?

Anyway, regarding Battle!Shane...

Let's just say that this is going to blow (most) people away so fast that they won't know what's going on. :)

Remember, this is the prologue. :P

Shane and Kim would come in Chapter 1, I think.

BTW, Shane, when are you going to unfreeze time in the story?

Already done. Just forgot to state it in this thread, rather than the other Off-Topic thread. :P

The Battle is a free-form RPG where the authors (the members who post) can choose a plot and then play by post. More plots get introduced as well, though.

At the moment, there are several plots going on simultaneously - Shaun and Kimberley being inside a Glitch Rift on Irova (the planet where Into the Unknown takes place) having to fix a time warp glitch in Irova; fourteen people in Castle Oblivion hoping to find Shane and Kim; four girls searching for a way to save their home planet. (Taylor told me that was her characters' plot.)

There are several variants, as well - I'll be copying and pasting from The Battle Forums.

Quote from: KarjamP
Variant 0: Shane's Cave Story / Dragon Riders [very inactive]
Variant A: Shane's Cave Story Forums [mostly inactive]
Variant B: A world where Shane and Kim were killed before they became Dragon Riders (and thus didn't have their world collapse) [Dream Realm]
Variant C: Mossmouth Forums (old The Battle) [currently paralyzed]
Variant D: Little Fighter Empire Forums [currently Forbidden]
Variant E: The world of Shane's Pokemon fanfics [currently paralyzed]
Variant F: The world of Shane's (currently canceled) RPG [currently paralyzed]
Variant G: The Battle Fora [active-ish]
Variant H: Dragon Riders planning forums [active-ish]
Variant I: A world where Kim was a sociopath and tried to kill Shane [Dream Realm]

KarjamP should be able to give a very detailed explanation, he likes explaining stuff. :P
'Sides, I have to make a thread containing a list of variants right now, with links to them. ;)

KarjamP / Taylor:
I hope you don't mind that the characters you use are being "overridden" while the Battle now focuses on Shaun and Kimberley inside the Irovan Glitch Rift.
Even then, I apologize.

After all, it's technically my fault for I forgot about Shaun and Kimberley... :-\

Anyway, the characters you're being "overridden" with for now are:
KarjamP: The girl with the aviator goggles and the ninja
Taylor: The half-brother and half-sister with the matching bracelets

Of course, once the Glitch Rift is fixed, I guess Chapter 1 will begin (Shane and Kim being focused on).

I'm okay with it, I don't mind.

Can we choose their names and so on, or are they pre-defined?
Title: Re: Battle Off-Topic
Post by: Shane on June 09, 2013, 06:43:23 pm
You can choose. :P
Feel free to go on as you wish with their names and such, I guess. :P

KarjamP: "Unless I have permission to control the Jenny Everywhere by Shaun and Kimberly, I can't do anything unless one of us picks up a plot for our side of the story."
You can control that character and the ninja, you know. You can choose the ninja's name, and so on, almost as though the ninja is a new character you thought up of. (Something like that. :P)

Stickied and unlocked The Battle, as it appears Shane's back.

Actually, it was intentionally left unstickied. :P
Either way, dankie. :)

Alright, Kushagra has joined in the Battle, thus he got a board for his characters if he so chooses to create character threads there.

The Purple Karjam, Yoshiro Sugimoto, and Jenny Everywhere make up the Three Amigos (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ThreeAmigos). :)

(I know.
 Nega-Lime was not above using lethal force on his opponants, even though he wasn't aiming to kill here and was invoking Set Swords To Stun (http://SetSwordsToStun)).

Nega-Lime moved up to him and then attempted to steal the sword while also simultaneously trying to outwit Possessed Bjorn.
That link is broken, Richard. :P

Shane.

I think your character should have variations of attacks from anime.

Huh? Why?
Title: Re: Battle Off-Topic

Because awesomeness.

Variations of the following jutsu would be awesome:

How does The Battle work? Do we need a character sheet like we do for Endania, or is this different?
Title: Re: Battle Off-Topic
Post by: KarjamP on November 20, 2013, 09:57:34 am
For some games, a character sheet's required, but for others (like this version of The Battle), you don't have to.

The newer ones, players take turns posting (that way, Shane can keep up), but otherwise, it's pretty much a Freeform RPG (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeform_role-playing_game) in that you CAN post anything on what you character says or do, even retconning events if you want to (but not recommended unless it conflicts with your vision on your own elements, due to the fact that it can anger others if it's done).

The last rule is also a courtesy rule: don't control other's characters without their permission. Those are the only rules.

In that case, I'll join in as myself. Just with special abilities and powers and such, like my stepsister(s) have. :P

... Has Dianke or Lily even appeared in a battle yet...? ???

I'll join in as well. I am Charlotte's sister, after all. :)
