Murder Break

The people of the Astare Imperium have become bored. A vast and technologically advanced empire, spanning far over the reaches of space, these people desire entertainment.

Thus, an edict has been issued. Gladiatorial battles shall be held and using the Astare's impressive technology, the greatest champions throughout time and space shall participate. With their consent, or otherwise.

So, choose your heros, and prepare for the games!

(Just make a bio and post it, people. I'm pretty casual on this one. Up to two characters per person are allowed, and I'll explain the death system once we begin.

Now get at it!)

If you are making a new character, just use the following format. Otherwise, just copy/paste.

Character 1 (I'll introduce 2 later in the RP.)


Species/Race:Human

Universe: Star Wars

Name: Verd'ala Prudii'aliit



Gender: Male



Age: 33



Height: 5'11"



Weight: 198



Hair Color: Brown



Eye Color: Hazel



Appearance: Verd'ala's body is that of a trained warrior. Not as large as a bodybuilders’, but not slim either. His armor is colored black with decorative tribal markings painted all over the armour in red. On the left side of his helmet, in gold, is the same symbol he has tattooed onto his face. These colors are marred in some places though, due to countless close calls with blaster fire, lightsabers, and the like. 



Though rare, when Verd'ala chooses to remove his helmet he is not ugly. It would be better to call him rugged. His face is marked by a few small scars, He has heavy, hazel eyes, brown, straight hair, and is usually sporting light stubble. Running from his left temple to his chin is a large jet black tattoo that seems to twist and turns all the way down. This tattoo is meant to show that he is a member of Prudii'aliit or "Shadow Clan," in Basic.



Personality: Verd'ala can be a friendly, personable, father like figures at sometimes, a cold as ice, relentless predator at others. These two depend on the situation. Usually he will be friendly, but if he is on a mission, or if someone has betrayed him, he turns into a cold calculating, killer. He will never stop thinking, never stop hunting, and never give up.



Home Planet: Mandalore



Allegiance: Verd'ala, like all Mandalorians, says he is loyal to the Mandalore, and this is mostly true, but inside he does sometimes doubt his decisions.



Profession: Bounty Hunter/ Merc



Primary Weapon(s): Verd'ala is proficient in most forms of weapons. He carries with him a modified heavy blaster pistol with a longer barrel so the beam would have a longer range and better accuracy, a blaster carbine modified with an extra large power cell for increasing stopping power, an attachable grip, and a gas release chamber to avoid over-heating. On his belt is a traditional Mandalorian saber modified with a Cortosis-weave. 

While Verd'ala considers long-range fighting to more efficient, he loves the thrill of close combat and believes it is the more honorable of the two.



Miscellaneous Item(s): He carries various gadgets such as a grapple hook and a Stokhli Spray Stick.



Biography: Born on Mandalore, Verd'ala was brought up as all Mandalorian children are. He began learning the art of war at the tender age of eight, along with rudimentary education in a public teaching system. The training was intense and Verd'ala was constantly pushed to his limits, sometimes dangerously. He almost died once during a survival exercise in the middle of the Felucian jungle. He'd been separated from his group and was on his own for about two weeks before a search ship found him atop a hill, unconscious and with his vital signs low. Verd'ala is still haunted by nightmares of that event.



He came from a small family, having only a sister, so they grew up very close. They even went through their childhood training together. Verd'ala has come to rely on her in tough situations. Prudii'aliit is a fairly old clan; know among Mandalorians for their particular skills in stealth and subterfuge. These lessons are passed down by parents and act as a coming of age journey. When a child at the age of seventeen was finally able to evade their parents for a whole week in an event know as the Prudii'ba'jur or "Shadow Training.", they would be given their ceremonial face tattoos, making them adults in the eyes of the clan. It was not uncommon for Prudii'aliit Mandos to adorn their armor with these symbols as well.



He finished school and went on to join the army, graduating third in his class, and focusing on special operations training. He served Mandalore the Lesser in the army for a number of years until he was killed and replaced by Mandalore the Vindicated. Verd'ala then decided to leave the army with a number of honors. He found his talents still needed throughout the galaxy in the form of a bounty hunter and a mercenary. They paid better too. Occasionally he'll call on his old team-mates for a favor, but he works mostly alone now. Verd'ala maintains the hope of finding a wife and starting a family someday.

For those of you not in the know about Mandalorians:

Name: Kol Kednar

Age: 38

Gender: Male

Universe: VAR.C_0044

Home Planet: Pundus

Appearance: Put simply, Kol could take better care of himself. With a shabby, hole-ridden trench coat he's owned for at least half of his life, paired with coarse leather gloves he looks a lot more like an electrician than a warrior. He has been called tree-like however, because he clocks it at a whopping 7"3, pretty tall even for his people's standards. You can commonly find small bits of debris in his lengthy dark hair, and he has a few permanently stained marks on his face and arms. The only visually pleasing part of him is his eyes, which are a deep green.

Personality: Reincarnation and self exploration are widely accepted concepts in Kol's homeworld culture, Kol being no exception. Believing that everything is a learning and growing experience, Kol is kind and insightful most of the time. Even in live combat he comes off as unconcerned, and sometimes even disinterested.

Primary Weapon: A TYO34, or "Matter Masher" as its affectionately called by the law of Pundus. Deemed illegal for being a hazard to environmental interest, they're a rare sight. The large, blunderbuss looking device weighs nearly 150 pounds and a widened muzzle. Use is simple -
1. Press against any solid surface 2. Allow TYO34 to completely consume and break down desired amount of material 3. Stand away from target as __ pounds of unstable, super-heated material completely shreds everything within range.

History: On Pundus, Kol was raised in a pleasant home with pleasant circumstances. No siblings, always enough to eat, and a pair of caring parents. But at fourteen, Kol decided that the life he was leading wasn't the one he wanted. So he left it all behind, and wormed his way onto the Pundus's sister planet, Vonyla. On Vonyla, Kol became involved in the Chargemen's Teon Brigade, a space exploration group that was known for not always upholding interplanetary code.

For the next decade or so, Kol learned everything he thought he'd need to know. How to fight, how pilot a ship, how to identify edible and non-edible foreign substances, and can fix up and figure out almost anything that can be called a machine.

Misc: He always carries around an ounce or so of sand in his pocket, hoping to be able to one day toss it in his enemies eyes as a weapon.

Name: Shiori Toriru
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Epithet: Blink Strike
Universe: One Piece

Appearance: Shiori stands about 5'7 without counting her shoes and has light skin, originally hailing from the cold climates of North Blue. She has tawny brown, wavy hair that reaches just past shoulder length when worn down, but is usually tied up in a high ponytail using a pale blue ribbon that she is rarely seen without. Shiori's light green eyes can be spotted from beneath the wisps of her fringe and are normally found to portray the simple joy that Shiori feels from being able to adventure upon the world's seas. Shiori is lean and athletic, due to her training with her mentors, and is capable of a certain degree of flexibility in order to land quite powerful kicks upon her foes.

When it comes to clothing, Shiori generally keeps it simple. If there's one thing she won't wear, it's skimpy or revealing outfits. Instead, she prefers comfortable clothing that allows her to move around, but doesn't take away from her capabilities in combat. As such she wears t-shirts of varying colours and patterns, and trousers that are usually form fitting, but made of flexible material so less susceptible to rips and tears during a fight. Shiori's outfits are usually accompanied by a pair of grey combat boots, (though during peaceful times at sea she may forget to lace them up) and a pale blue, military-esque coat that has light brown buttons, cuffs, pocket edges and inside lining.

In colder weather, Shiori isn't likely to change what she's wearing, with the exception of doing up her coat instead of leaving it undone like she normally would. She will, however, accompany her outfit with a scarf and gloves if it gets to be too cold even for her, or if she's nagged to do so by other crewmates.
In warmer weather, Shiori will often shed her coat completely and wear thinner clothes. She's not a huge fan of extremely hot places, but when it's pleasantly warm and sunny she'll take the opportunity to go barefoot instead of wearing shoes.

Personality:
Shiori is an exciteable individual who has a sort of one track mind for adventure and loves to both hear and tell various stories. She's very positive, but because of this sometimes needs others to point out the negatives of an idea before she acts. Though reckless at times in her search for adventure, Shiori is truly a caring individual and will do anything to help and protect those she considers friends. She can also be rather absentminded and sometimes decides things on a mere whim.
Shiori has an interesting reliance on her initial instincts, especially when it comes to trusting people she's just met. Mostly, she prefers to make friends rather than enemies, but as with every captain on the sea, she can't get along with everyone and will openly state her disregard for an individual if they do or represent something that doesn't morally agree with her.
I feel like I should add for this RP that Shiori does not agree with killing in cold blood and unless she has some personal grievance about an opponent, will prefer to go for a knockout than a kill, which may ultimately lead to her downfall.

History:

There are One Piece spoilers in here sorta so I put it in a spoiler just in case.:

Misc:
Weapons / Combat Capabilities / Other Skills:
Shiori has learned to use Fishman Karate, a form of martial art that relies on the user's ability to control the water around them to deal damage to their opponents, most commonly by impacting the water within the bodies of opponents. She can also utilize observation haki, a technique that allows her to sense the presence of others and also gives her limited precognition. (Very short term. Think predicting a move before it's used.) More killing intent = easier to predict.
Shiori is also a strong swimmer and makes limited use of throwing knives, carrying three with her under her coat.

Side Note; Shiori has a rather inconvenient trait of being overly vulnerable to heatstroke, which to be honest is probably why she dislikes intense heat so much in the first place. It is a particular hindrance when fighting or training in hotter places, as she quickly becomes dizzy from dehydration.




There's other stuff I could add but i'm lazy and her full bio needs tweaks so I just put what was necessary rlly |D

Both of these look good.

Wolf, I am slightly curious as to what exactly Kol is. Is he a "human", some sort of humanoid alien, or something completely different.

Otherwise, all good you two.

Pundans are more or less just big humans. Aside from being bigger and and naturally stronger than an average person, he's a person.
