The Ultimate Rumble Championship - A new tournament implemented by the man known as Balthazar - a billionaire, and owner of Balthazar Pharmaceuticals, his company specializes in Pharmacy and medicine. Balathazar just happens to be a fan of fighting as well, and really has no limit to what his money can accomplish, and so he sought to create the ultimate fighting tournament spanning the world, buying out his own island and calling it Champion Island - located on a plot of land off the coast of South America. Isolated, but large, this island is able to hold small communities as well as accommodations for all of those attending the tournament, spanning the course of 2 months.

The invitation was sent to out to the public, and fighters from all over the world gave gathered, arriving to the island in hopes of becoming the best and winning the grand prize of $3,000,000. For alot of fighters, that money will be more than they will ever see in their lifetime, and so it’s no wonder why they flocked to the island. For some, the glory of being the best is enough for them. Whatever the reason is, it can be rest assured that this tournament will be the highlight of the year for many people, and it will definitely be full of action.

This is where YOU come in. You’re a fighter, and whatever your motivations are for entering this tournament, you have come to Champion Island to sign-up for the tournament, after making the phone call to participate. Whether you’re here to make friends, or to simply play the game, you definitely have your eyes on the prize and you’ll do whatever it takes to make it to the top!

Champion Island is still technically under construction. Although the island citizens are aware of the many tourists that will be arriving to the island, there are some part of the island that can still be considered ‘off-limits’, due to possible looting, stealing, violence, or just generally unsafe. Because of this, Balthazar Industries has instructed all fighters and tourists to read the handbook or the website, to view their ‘approved’ areas and highly recommend not going anywhere else. For the most part, these are the current Areas that are open (and more will open throughout the role-play):

Beach Resort: This a huge resort area located on one of the beachfronts of Champion Island. Many tourists and fighters will stay here for their duration, and has easy access to the beach.

Forest Resort: This is another resort, located near waterfalls and near the edge of town near a forest. This resort is a bit away from the main city, but also a bit quieter due to being out of the way.

Champion Resort: This resort is smack-dab right in the heart of Champion City. Indoor waterpark, and easy access to the rest of the city, this resort will be a hotspot for everyone.

Note: All resorts come with the same amenities (restaurants, gym, pools, etc).

Downtown Champion City: Although it is not recommended to go travel in random neighbourhood within the city or neighbouring towns, Downtown is open for business, and has more than enough for everyone.

Okay, so before we get into character creation, I am going to get into a bit of detail with this role-play. First off, let me start by saying that this is a fighting-game inspired role-play. If you are a fan of Street Fighter, Tekken, King of Fighters, etc then this role-play is for you. It has nothing to do with those franchises, just simply my own creation that takes inspiration. With that out of the way, let’s get started:

As mentioned, this is a fighting game role-play. Sure there’s obviously going to be fighting, but there is a story and it will be plot-driven. Unless I state otherwise, a lot of the role-play will be getting to know your characters and sometimes more ‘sand-box’ style. Because of this, we will play the role-play in an ‘Episode’ style format, where each episode will have it’s own little plot.

Secondly, is the topic of Energy: Energy is a term used to describe the spirit force, or the actual life-force of someone. Every living being on the planet has energy, however, very few people know how to use it. Energy is also called by different names, depending on where the person is from. It can be called Chi, Spirit, Spirit Energy, and even Magic. Utilizing Energy during fights, can allow the user to use attacks that they normally wouldn’t be able to use. Example can include shooting an energy ball or wave of sorts, increasing punching power, etc. Everyone uses energy in different ways: Just because one person is able to do something, doesn’t mean another would be able to do the same, due to how their energy manifests and differs from person to person. Similar to fingerprints, energy signatures are unique to individuals.

Rules

1) Hard to sort of do in a Fighting role-play but let’s try not to God-Mod. I mean, characters should still be able to lose, and have to put up a difficult fight, etc. I am trying to gear more towards teamwork, and smart fighting, as opposed to characters getting a power-up every single time there’s a major fight.

2) This role-play is rated M for the part (Blood, a bit of swearing, possible sexual content, etc).

3) Only one character per person - only human characters!

4) For now, if your character uses any energy based attacks, only pick one. They shouldn't be relying on energy to win fights, especially because it will exhaust you FAST. They should still know how to fight, and use their fighting skills to win matches.

5) Fighting between characters is allowed - especially encouraged during a tournament setting.

6) You guys are free to suggest your own character arc you would like everyone to participate in! If you have ideas, let me know and we can try to work it into the story somehow! This includes creating villains, etc.
