NIV I LOVE THE SNOW THEME

December leaped back, narrowly avoiding being missed by the punch. The air crackled about them for a moment as he swallowed his instinct to attack with ice - something so natural to him that it was hard not to use it to cause more damage in hand-to-hand combat. As much as he preferred keeping his distance, he was forced to stay closer to Mateo, which limited his options. Still, he couldn't sustain too much damage to his limbs especially, knowing their more bird-like bone structure could easily allow them to break and fracture under too much damage. It did, however, allow him to be lighter on his feet, even without his slight supernatural disposition to being fast, which he was also trying to supress.

Observing the power in the punch despite Mateo's initial reputation, December acted quickly. He wasn't that far away from Mateo, just out of arm's reach, and so he decided to do the opposite of what his fighting style dictated. With a quick step forward, he jabbed lightly with his left hand before literally jumping forward, unleashing a hidden right cross at the same time, aimed at Mateo's jaw. The movement was quick, fluid and lithe, and obviously very-well practiced; hours of training in mixed martial arts had commited more than enough strikes, kicks, holds and flips to memory. Thinking quickly and knowing he was now in the danger zone he landed, absorbed the impact, and used the force of it to enhance the kick that he snapped forwards towards Mateo's waist, hoping to shove his opponent either away from him or onto the ground.

((Thanks to my best friend who is a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, my boyfriend who is the Karate world fighting champion for our age group, and videos of martial artists fighting.))

((Hmm, since December's now kind of split between Dark and Mateo, I'll respond to Darkius right after the fight ends^^))

Narunir sidled over to Ryfes, tilting his head in the direction of the students with a playful smirk on his face.
"Let's get started, then," he purred, once again producing his two potions out of some hidden pocket in his jacket.

December nodded, uttering a low
"Thanks,"
Before narrowly avoiding the uppercut, hissing in pain when the other punch connected solidly with his shoulder, just barely avoiding a broken collarbone. He took a few steps back, absorbing the punch, before smirking at Mateo and rubbing his shoulder.
"Not so bad yourself," He commented, letting go of the injury snd rolling the joint before launching another barrage of attacks. This time, he feigned a punch for Mateo's chest before, at the last moment, dropping into a lower crouch and snapping his hips forward in a powerful kick aimed for the knees. He didn't have much brute strength, true, but he knew how to use the power and energy of motion and gravity to his advantage.

(( Snooty males, l m a o.
@Sleepy Maltese is very close to Italian, but I think it has some Spanish and Arabic mixed in as well. It can be either very pleasant or very hard listen to, depending on what they're saying. I'd love to learn Spanish, though, as I vacation in Costa Ricas every year and my vocabulary is limited to (and I'm not going to spell these because you'll probably burst out laughing),

"Hello, how are you?"
"Thank you"
"Chicken #3, please" ---> we very commonly eat chicken there, and I got sick iof my dad pointing to an ENTIRE MENU OF CHICKEN and saying "Pollo". Good job, Dad.
"Good morning"
"Good evening"
"Good afternoon"
"I do not speak Spanish, do you speak English...?"

And then like a few random animals bc Dora.

I enjoy writing French, but verbally - Drex, you would find me a riot. I always forget my verb tenses when I'm speaking verbally, and I mix up some feminine and masculine nouns if I'm not familliar with them. My accent's gotten better though. It only sounds like a small English one now ^^

Anyways, I rambled enough. But I'm super surprised that you guys can communicate in English so well, grammar mistakes aside. I know it's supposed to be a lot harder than learning French or English (cause I think we have like 23 verb tenses and a tonne of slang) ))

He and Ember will probably be either good friends or mortal enemies, but I can't wait to meet him ^^

Oooh Sil, what're they like?

December lowered himself, grasping the other male's hand with a wry smirk, attempting to pull Mateo up to his feet, before he turned to look at Darkius, raising an eyebrow delicately.
"In a 'fair fight'," he spoke slowly, with a tone of annoyance. "Apple probably would have dropped you, easily. Narunir's venom is probably enough to at least permanently damage your limbs and organs. Nox and Allistor could probably more than likely take you down. And as for me?" His voice dropped low, a sly smirk pulling at his lips, showing off pearly white teeth and ever-so-slightly sharper-than-average canines, a side affect of his Fallen status. "I could kill you, right now, before you could even get in a word edgewise. You don't pay attentuon to thiose around you, and you greatly underestimate us. Believe me, kid," he spat, iridescent blue eyes narrowed and focused on the other creature.
"I've spent my entire life prior to my Fall training to kill and killing creatures like yourself. Demons, Fallens, unGodly creatures like you. I've seen rabbits scarier than you. Do us all a favour and shut your arrogant mouth," he paused, taking a smooth, threatening step forward and cocking his head, almost puppy like. "Before one of us shut it for you."

winter, snow, Christmas, all my favourites ^^

I can go out in the snow for hours, and I'm very tolerant to the cold anyways.

Snow day today!! We can't get out of my driveway and the tractor won't start, so we can't plough it lmao

If I remember, I'll take some pictures to show you guys later ^^

I feel like we're getting closs ro being even at this point, but there are more girls than guys, I believe ^^ Not that it matters, don't feel inclined to make a guy just because of that!

(( Giving Darkius until 10:00 pm EST tomorrow, after which I will move on.))

December rolled his eyes with a look of annoyance.
"I know your attention span is probably worse than a fly's, but you could at least pretend to listen when someone is talking to you," He sneered, settling his gaze on the other creature with a look of utter boredom. Inside, he was bursting with delight at the idea of causing another fight - he couldn't help it. He'd fallen to Wrath, and it was engraved in his behavior and in the way he enticed others into its fold.

"As I said before, cher diable, many of us wouldn't have any trouble dealing with the likes of you." His voice had a cheery note to it, as if he were delivering a delightful kick to the teeth. "To some of us, you're a mere annoyance - a little bug in our path that we could easily crush. You greatly underestimate those around you, and you greatly overestimate your own ability. Especially," he glared, "when you're at a disadvantage." He leered for a minute, grinning spitefully before continuing. "So please, stop using cheap little tricks and trying to talk yourself up around the adults, kiddie. You might find yourself with one foot in the grave."

Narunir glanced at Ryfes before looking back towards the argument, his eyes settling on the two teenagers.
"I want to see how this plays out first - but," He grinned "Let's just wreak as much havoc as we possibly can. The person who causes the most chaos or affects the most students, wins."

(( It's just a little tiring to be left hanging ^^

But I totally get it. Exam season is tough ;-;))

Updated December's bio a bit, as well as adding another attack of his to the bio. You can review it if you want, let me know if you want it changed ^^

It's something that my friend and I were discussing as a neat ability if he could pull it off, particularly because of the irony of giving breath to someone so that you can stop them from breathing.

yes, before you ask, i did take bio, and i know what kind of damage that attack could do to a person.

Ooooh yum!
I'll upload the pictures later, meh.

What do you guys think of Ember getting back his wings at one point? I'm kind of neutral on the subject tbh, there are pros and cons to it.

Therein lie the pros and cons, right?

One option is that he does something to redeem himself (ex. Taking a hit for someone. Like a near-death hit, worse than the shot from Nox. The ultimate sacrifice is something highly revered in the Bible)

Another alternative is taking the Maleficent route, lmao.

Or maybe Fuscia or Johan practice their healing on him and it has some unexpected side effects? Idk. It's an interesting topic to explore.

He would most likely just start bawling, though.

As for personality, he'd probably be much the same. The way I see it, while he's influenced by sin, yes, he's still his own person, and his personality isn't going to change like that, at least not overnight. Not that I would let it, either.

Optimist#262188 Which one? xD

One of the cons is that he would probably be a lot less touchy or angsty. However, that would be in moderation. As in, his original cinnamon roll personality would be more prominent at times. However, even if he does get them back, it won't be for a while.

Have you seen Fantastic Beasts? The Thunderbird in it, Frank, has feathers that look almost like molten gold. They shimmered whenever he moved. That's exactly how I pictured Ember's wings, just, white, with the gold shimmer.

The groups of three thing sounds interesting, but I'm not familiar with Naruto. The animation style...I can tolerate a lot, but Naruto, Dragon Ball, and Sailor Moon just get on my nerves for some reason. Like they sound like they have great story lines (except like maybe Dragon Ball) but I just couldn't get into them.

its -10 *C out here k so

Unn but Ember's probably gonna start yelling at Fuscia but it's gonna be Allistor instead and-

idea

ooooh idea

Nothing against you Darkius, it's just fun to mess with your character. ^^

Oh wait, hey, they didn't actually seitch bodies, did they? I thought it was just an illusion.
And, for example, if December looked at himself, would he look like December to himself, or would he look like Allistor to himself?

Not really, though it may initially seem that way, and Drex explained its weaknesses before. Trust me, there are some characters who are kind of Mary-Sues in this thread, but Ryfes is not one of them.

It's an illusion, yes, but like Drex said, it has its limitations. You can still have the presence of mind to work through it and break the illusion, as far as I understood. Furthermore, Drex did include the fact that it was heavily fatiguing for Ryfes to do.

On that note, and at the risk of sounding rude, something in the thread has been bothering me, if I can make a point...? I'm sorry if it comes across as rude or if it offends anyone, it's not meant to. This is just some stuff that I've picked up on over the years, and it's some pretty standard etiquette that people tend to follow in more advanced rp's.

I've been roleplaying for around 7 years now, and I am writing my own novel, so I know what can make or break a story (that sounds very conceited, but bear with me). In my personal opinion, no character should walk out of any fight uninjured. Even if they are the victor, or if it's a playfight or sparring, they should at least come out of it with a scrape. In real life, that's exactly what happens. I playfight with my cousins all the time, and I always come out with bruises. It's unrealistic and overpowered to have someone come out of a fight uninjured, and trust me, it's more fun and interesting for everybody if they do. Even the Avengers get injured!

There's also a thing called 'powerplaying', and it happens when you hit another person's character without their consent, or when you auto-hit (meaning, you say that your character's attack hit the other player's before their turn has come, unless the person you're rping with has given consent.). I will always say that my characters will "attempt" or "try to" when they're launching an attack, so that you can give consent in your next post to decide it the attack hit or missed. This is something that I usually work around when I see it - for example, if someone randomly said that they stabbed December, I might wholly disregard that part of the post because, a) it was an auto hit, and b) I did not give cosent to that. I don't know...to me it just comes off as offensive, somehow...? Like I am completely aware of my character's strengths and weaknesses, and I know what attacks would be effective on them and what attacks simply wouldn't work. It's really bothersome when someone decides for me what my character can or cannot evade.

This is just some advice from an experienced roleplayer. I don't mean it in a rude or negative way, but it's my ecperience that it keeps everything fair for everyone that way. I just noticed some of it going on and thought I'd give a few pointers, feel free to tell me to shut up ^^

December blinked, wholly confused by just what the hell had just happened. His mind whirled, his current train of thought comingto a screeching halt as he attempted to backtrack and process. He turned and faced the apparent 'Darkius' (Fuscia), fully ready to blame the other temperamental student.
"Quoi? What the hell did you do?"

Narunir blinked, impressed, before he flashed Ryfes a toothy smile, melting into his draconic, quetzalcoatl form, appreciating the enhanced senses. His keen eyesight picked out little distortions here and there - a flash of silver on "Allistor's" face where December's pericing caught the light and reflected it, or the rippling of the air behind "Darkius" where Fuscia's wings messed with the lighting.
Broken out of the illusion, Narunir grinned slyly, pleased enough with the chaos that a small, reptillian purr rumbled deep in his chest. Pulling out his own flasks, the teacher filled a few water balloons with the two liquids before targetting the real Darkius and Nox, aiming to splash the species-altering potion on them.

((Um, hopefully that was okay, Drex? Correct me if I'm wrong. Also, if you don't want to get hit by the potions, just dodge. If you want your character to get hit by either the love potion or the changeling one, just let me know ^^))
