Street Fighting Ring & Takedown plotting!

[brightlyshines]

Since there's a lot of us taking on this particular task board job, I'm posting here on the OOC community so we can hash out ideas and get our ducks in a row about what we'll all be doing throughout the month with these tasks!

We can discuss what our characters might attempt, their investigation efforts, and if or how they'll end up collaborating with each other here in this post. Toss out ideas and let's have some fun with this!

Edit: Also, do we want a mingle log for this spanning October?

Hi! I'd be up for some CR from one (false) old man to another, positive or negative! Though most likely negative considering Wrath's temperament, ahaha.

I mostly want to RP the battle portion for any interesting dialogue that might come out of it, but what do you think? The transition I'm thinking of is that the fight starts out as a normal street fight (barehanded, I gather), but I imagine things eventually go south for Jade (not sure how soon it would be, depends if Wrath pulls punches at first to toy around with his opponent or immediately goes ham in the fight). When that does happen, Jade'll most likely infer that his opponent is cheating one way or another, and as such, well, quits pulling punches pretty much literally. He'll be materializing his weapon at this point and would be using it, though I imagine it won't make much of a difference in the long run. And I don't think Wrath would leave him enough time to cast some of the more destructive spells in his repertoire, so it's gonna be just Jade, his spear, and whatever small artes he could squeeze in.

I don't expect Jade to win this one, in any case. I'm also open to making this as deadly as necessary.

In any case, let me know if you'll be up for threading, thanks!

That works splendidly. Considering Wrath is basically out to get paid for hurting people, yeaaaah probably negative CR. :D

Ahaha, awesome! Please give Colonel Troll the beating of his life, then!

I think I can get around to posting the top-level/starter for this once the (hypothetical) mingle log goes up! Also, say, would any date on October work IC-ly? I'm thinking of forward-dating it to around mid-October (since I'm expecting Jade to bow out of this task after the fight with Wrath), but if that doesn't work, I think we can figure out another date! (Or we can always finalize the date later and just settle on the range, I'm admittedly curious about the upcoming "???" events ahaha)

By the way, how "concealed" would Wrath be in the fights? Jade's pretty much going casual for the fights instead of wearing his usual military uniform, so I don't expect him to be easily recognizable as well. This is mostly for reference in possible future encounters, ahaha.

..no, not like that. But 'normal' clothes, the Empatheian equivalent of a ski mask, and glasses to hide his eyes? Like that.

Any date works for me, really.

Hahaha, roger on that! Though in all seriousness I think that outfit might work lmao

I'll let you know once I have posted the starter, then!

Just wanted to let you know that I posted the starter over here!
