Practice Matches[Open]

So, people want to have some official practice matches, in the way of episode 11 of RWBY. SO! That's gonna happen, and if you want to play, you're in the right place.

Please signup here. Post your interest. This post will contain more information about the event, such as when it starts. Note that I am tied up with Initiation Mk 2 starting tomorrow, The Autunno plot, and I'm working on my own plot on the side. We also have some things in the works for the website as a whole. So the event will likely not be starting until at the VERY least, next week. This gives people plenty of time to sign up, and for me to setup the matches.

The matches will be 1v1 style, and if your entire team wants to participate, we will also have 4v4 team practice matches.

Alright. Matches are now only partially random. Based on first come, first serve, people will be split into groups of 4, and then randomly given an opponent from that group. That way, people who signed up first don't have to wait a year for their match because the dice didn't work out for them.

Update: Match One and probably Match Two will begin soon. A post will be made in the Arena section regarding the matches, and a link will be placed here.

The matches will be using a very simple combat system. All players have 100% Aura. Using your best judgement, your Aura will deplete when you take damage/are injured/exhausted in some way. You get to decide how much it depletes, but I will moderate if people aren't making good decisions regarding it. For example, if you are smashed into a wall by a massive, giant attack that you didn't block at all, you should probably loose a decent amount of Aura. This amount you lose depends on your character. If your profile says you are skilled with Aura/have lots/have strong Aura, then naturally it would deplete slower. Vice versa, it would deplete faster. Use your judgement on the matter. You must keep track of your Aura strength in each post you make. At the end/beginning, state how much Aura is remaining in a percentage. If you were at 100%, and you took the attack mentioned above, then add something like, "50% Aura" to your post.

The match ends when one player reaches 20% or less Aura. The official will declare when the match begins and ends.
