A Test of Strength [Open to All][Teams]

[Linally Ragebloom]

Area - Grassy Plains [[Note - Scenery dramatically changes every Thirty Seconds IC, meaning after 5 full cycles of posting, the area changes.]]
Starting Distance - 30 meters

Rules:
- No attacking on first post
- There are two teams, 1 and 2. If you are the first, third, fifth, seventh, etc to join, you are on team one (All odd numbers). All even numbers of order of joining are team two.
- You may never change the starting distance to shorter than 30 meters on first post. After that, you can get as close and personal as you want. Not a single enemy can be shorter than 30 meters away.
- Even if killed, disabled, or otherwise beaten, you may Reenter, but you lose your place in the Enter Order. However, that being said, your number does not change once you enter, so if combatant number 3 is killed, but nobody joins to take his place, he may rejoin and will be number three again. If someone steals his place, he takes the next available number, even if it is the other team.
- If one entire team is defeated, the numbers of the survivors will shuffle based on 'posting' order. Teams will always remain.
- The Temperature of the battlefield is not stated. It will not influence any spells, techniques, or items positively or negatively in anyway. The sun is bright, midday, straight above, thus only small shadows underneath the combatants and hidden in the tall grass.
- This battle is ongoing, new combatants just need to jump in with their entry post, which will then reserve them a spot in the posting order.
- Posting order MUST NOT BE BROKEN! You only post after the same person, each cycle through, regardless of how many people join. Order will only change when a new player joins the fight, which means the only person that will randomly go before you is somebody on their Entry Post.
- If somebody posts, and the next person in line fails to post for forty-eight hours, they are skipped and the next person may post, who will then also have forty-eight hours to perform their post. Any attacks on people that were declared BEFORE their turn, and they miss their turn, they are HIT, no exception. The user of the attack is allowed to decide how damaging or lethal the attack was, within logical reason.
- If an attack was stated, but the attack itself was ignored by the target in the target's post (meaning it was not mentioned as hitting or avoiding the attack), the attack gets to choose the lethality of the attack and whether the strike lands or not.
- Greenhorn level spells only. Any mage rank may join, but only Greenhorn spell levels are allowed.
- Not required, but please state the number that you think you are in OOC on your entry post, and if you are able to, each post as a reminder to everyone else.
- No attacks on first post of Scenery Changes, all previously used magic spells and techniques are canceled out during Scenery Change.

Linally Ragebloom opened her eyes slowly, the sun above was glaring right down on her, which oddly enough didn't have any significant heat to it, just light. As she stood up, finding herself in an endless sea of tall green grass, she realized that she hadn't a clue how she had gotten here, and that she seemed completely alone in this almost false world.. Literally, the field was endless. Looked around, it seemed empty, but anybody who was lying down would be easily concealed by the grass."Where am I?"

[[Number 1]]

[malakai]

Malakai stood tall in the large open field, a battle ground not suited for his tastes, but atleast there would be a good fight to be had. He was more used to fighting in an area with some concealment. "Well hello there young lady, shall we have a bloody good time?" Malakai asked the woman he found himself alone with at the moment. A loud cackling laughter broke out from Malakai as a sick twisted smile broke out on his face. With such a delectable opponent like that, this battle was sure to be fun.

[[Number 2]]

[shadeimpulse]

Smoke came up in the air as Manuel puffed on his cigarette in the middle of this open field, apparently he was brought here to fight, but there were two people here at the moment, Manuel making three. "Well, well, guess this is going to be a good old fashion brawl then eh?" Manuel took another puff on his cigarette as he looked over the two others.

A strangely feminine man, with a sick smile on his face was starring down at a pretty young girl. Manuel hoped he wouldn't have to fight the girl, seeing as how he couldn't bring himself to fight such a pretty young thing. Manuel thought for a minute, trying to figure out if he stood a chance against the strange man, hopefully he would at least not have to defend the woman.

[[Number 1]]

[Linally Ragebloom]

Linally was staring at the sun, still amazed that it wasn't burning her, nor stinging the eyes. It was completely artificial, yet still had so much light to offer. When Malakai revealed himself, with his sadistic sounded threat, Linally lowered her gaze to look at him. She watched for a moment, then let loose a heavy sigh. Of course, a main dish of weird-as-hell world with a side dish of phsychopathic blood-drinker. She shrugged her shoulder as she stepped forward.

At that moment a second actor showed up to this play of madness, and although he neither looked familiar nor said a word to her, she instantly felt a strange feeling. He was on her side, she was to trust him, they were a team. She smiled lightly, the odds were on her side for a change, and that felt pretty good. She turned her head back towards Malakai and waved her hand tauntingly. "I'm hardly worried about someone like yourself creep. I hope you can run faster scared than I can when I'm pissed." Linally chuckled at herself as she pulled the large fur coat from her body and tossed it to the side, which strangely enough began engulfed by the ground. She paid no attention however, as she quickly worked on stripping off her shirt as well, and as it too was tossed to the side, the grass devoured it in a moment's notice. She then stood there in a bright sky blue bra and her long jeans and thick combat boots, she was ready now.

She held out her hand, palm up, fingers lightly gripping the air as various silver sparkles began to form and swarm the small area in her palm. It would only take a moment for a small orb, barely small enough for her hand to hold by itself, and then then pulled it close to her body, cradling it as if it was a child. She felt the chill from the orb against her skin and was instantly comforted, it was good to feel cool temperature again, and freezing felt wonderful. She tooked her eyes off the orb and glanced at Malakai again, still smiling. She wasn't going to move yet, nor was she going to throw the small frozen explosive, she would wait for now.

Spell Name: Shatter Bomb
Level:
Range: Close, Medium, Long (Medium and Long are suggested)
Description: The Ice Alchemist forms and orb of pure ice in their hands and chucks it across the battlefield (or if they are foolish, at their own feet). Once the orb strikes and object, an element, or anything that will even slightly alter its velocity/momentum, the thin surface of the orb shatters from the contents inside, and various Ice Needles are thrown in every direction. Imagine it like an Ice Grenade. Each needle is relatively weak, though if several manage to hit, a decent wound or injury can incur. Each needle flies on a straight trajectory for 10 meters before dissipating into the air.
Drawback: The user can easily harm themselves if they drop the orb at their feet, use too close to themselves, or teammates if they are not careful. Needles do not curve, do not target, nor coincidentally all aim for an opponent. Accuracy and Precision do not exist with this move.

[malakai]

Malakai looked with interest as the girl took off her top. Millions of thoughts went through his head, and to him they were all good. Malakai didn't expect her to see them that way though. Malakai's face became stern, his eyes narrowing, giving off an aura of despair. "A woman so willing to show her flesh, and a silent man who acts so calm...a truly pitiful team for me to face.". Malakai took one of his assassin darts out of his pocket and threw it with a killers accuracy at the woman's heart. A true test of reflexes was needed at this moment.

[shadeimpulse]

As the woman took off her top, Manuel almost dropped his cigarette, apparently he had chosen the right side to be on here. Manuel pulled down his cigarette and looked at the smiling villain as his face made a complete change. There was no helping it...the man would have to go down. "Don't think you are in the same league as me, fool." Manuel watched the needle fly toward his partners heart, and expected her to dodge it, there was no reason she wouldn't be able too, after all she looked like a fighter. Manuel took another puff of his cigarette, and decided to see how his partner could fight before making a move.

[Linally Ragebloom]

Linally frowned as the man threw some sort of pointed projectile at her. Sure it was easy enough to dodge at thirty meters away, so she easily sidestepped to the right and avoided it completely, but still, he revealed himself to have some nasty little ranged capabilities, and she wasn't exactly best in that sort of situation.

As the dart soared by, thanks to her taking two steps to her right, she would continue to cradle the orb against her chest as she left her left arm, and held he palm outwards. Slowly, from her hand, a thin sheet of ice would form, the type that could shatter if someone sneezed on it, but within six full seconds, assuming she was not interrupted in that time, the wall would reach to a full two feet in thickness, easily able to shrug off any more darts, as well as just about anything else that could be hurled at it. She still frowned though as a few beads of sweat began to form on her forehead, she was warming herself up, and being an ice alchemist, she definitely preferred a cooler temperature. She would have to fix that in a little bit.

Linally glanced at her ally, she noted that he was about the same distance from the opponent as Linally herself. She wanted to know what he could do, since he seemed quite sure of himself as he spoke to their opponent. Yet, he did not move, was he just going to sit there as she became a walking pincushion for that freak? The nerve...

Spell Name: Frosty Wall
Level: Greenhorn
Range: Close (Under 1 Meter)
Description: The user creates a large solid wall purely of frozen water. The wall itself only forms at the max length of the Ice Alchemist's arm can stretch. The wall itself is ten foot high, ten foot wide, and two feet thick. The primary uses of this wall are obviously for defense, as the sheer density, mass, and size can withstand even a good amount of fire damage. Other attacks require significant force to break through or be intangible.
Drawback: Fire does a greater amount of damage than other attacks. The wall is immobile, thus moving around it is simple and effective. Only one wall can be sustained by a Greenhorn Level Mage. The Wall takes six seconds (One full turn) to completely form its max height, weight, length, width, and density. This wall will completely melt after ten turns unless cooled or produced in a cool environment. Extremely hot environments melt the wall in only four turns.
