The earth was governed by the laws of honor and the might a man carried himself. The only way to be remembered is to be immortalized in deeds and power so great that it was spoken of and remember for many centuries.<br><br>This is the world that exists today, and many seek this power and immortality.<br><br>Their first obstacle? To cross the scorching desert. Many die in the journey alone. Past the mirages, scorching heat, misleading dunes, tucked deep in the desert sands, is a compound. There is a towering wall around it that stretches its sun-bleached stone as high as skyscrapers. The main gates automatically open with a knock. Past the mighty, intimidating walls is a ring of grass as large as a football field. A cobble path from the main gates cuts through the grass and beeline’s for the entrance to arena. The Arena walls jut up as proud as the fortress walls. Nothing else exists in the compound. Here, creatures and beings of all kinds fight and train together in order to obtain this immortality. Their goals? To become powerful enough to be immortalized. Many come from all stretches of lands, of all races, of all power. <br><br>How will you wish to be immortalized? Are you a hero wishing the change the world, or an overlord wanting to control it with an iron fist? What do you bring to the arena and how do you wish to impact those around you? It is your actions that make the future. The choice is yours, but more importantly: Will you survive?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br>The actual RP: Click!

				<strong>Username:</strong> Trost<br><strong>Name:</strong> Axius and Eleithinna<br><strong>Role:</strong> Owner <br><strong>Origination:</strong> Unknown <br><strong>Race:</strong> Half-deity<br><strong>Age:</strong> looks 26<br><strong>Gender:</strong> female and male<br><strong>Description:</strong> Axius is 6’2”, broad shouldered, and has muscles rippling on every inch of his body. His skin glows a flawless bronze. A mane of dark brown hair flares around an angular, sharp face and stretches past his shoulders. Icy blue eyes cut at any passersby beneath a permanent scowl. His bow lips are usually arched down to match it. He is caught always wearing black; usually this is in black pants, black boots, and a black sleeveless shirt. On his back, he bears a celtic tattoo. (http://www.littletonparish.com/celtic2.jpg)<br><br>Eleithinna is 6’2, slender with a voluptuous body. Her body has the same bronze as Axius and the same thick, dark hair. Although, her hair falls to her mid-calf. Her eyes are blue, yet very welcoming and friendly. Her bow-lips are usually arched in a smile. Opposite of her male counterpart, Eleithinna is often seen wearing white. She is seen usually in a flowing gown that ripples like water in the tiniest of her graceful movements. The same celtic design (http://www.littletonparish.com/celtic2.jpg) is pinned to as a crest on her right shoulder sleeve.<br><br><strong>Abilities/Weapons:</strong> Axius wields a huge hammer which he swings with abnormal agility and ease. His deity powers consists of water, earth, fire, and wind, though only their destructive power.<br><br>Eleithinna wields no weapons, but has a strong power to her. Like Axius, she has the ability to manipulate water, earth, fire, and wind. However, unlike him, she can only use it for positive, productive power. (Healing, helping, nurturing, etc)<br><br>Both can communicate to each other’s mind.<br><strong>Character:</strong> Axius-Powerful and hungry for more, the male demi-god is a fighter. He craves destruction, challenges, and pain. Stubborn, gruff, violent, and aggressive, he is borderline evil.<br><br>The only that keeps Axius’ in line is the soft heart of his counterpart: Eleithinna. The woman is kind hearted and pure of heart. Always smiling and offering a helping hand, she is the healer of body and soul.<br><br><strong>Bio: </strong> Axius and Eleithinna are actually two parts to one being. Once a single person, the deity had two split personalities. One half wanted to lay waste to lands, absorb and conquer every power. The other urged to be good and to help. It mourned when the darker side raged, and the darker side raged when the lighter one held it back. With the sanity slipping, the crushing power was falling out of control. Unable to take the constant psychological battle, the deity split itself into two beings: Axius and Eleithinna. Both created the Arena in order for Eleithinna to train those to change the world for the good, and for Axius to satisfy his destructive urges. Both are there to train, as well, to find a balance. Only then can they become a single being again.<br>

				Username: RedRuby<br>Name: Aikiden S'zerosara&nbsp;<br>Role: Fighter&nbsp;<br>Origination: A faraway land known as Kyrenia, where combat prowess is viewed as evil.&nbsp;<br>Race: De'rosovian<br>Age: 18<br>Gender: Female<br>&nbsp;<br>Description: Aikiden is a girl that most people would be amazed by. Among her own tribe, she looks fairly normal, however. Her pale, almost blueish skin is smooth to the touch, and her long silver hair radiant and shiny as real metal. Just as with all of her people, she has sharp features. A feature that is unique to De'rosovians is bone spikes from the spine, three on her neck, the other four from the top of her back down to the bottom. She has tried to get rid of these on many occasions, from filing, to clipping and everything in between, despite the pain that it causes her. Her reasoning for this is because she doesn't like how they look much and they get in the way.&nbsp;<br><br>Aikiden is very athletic looking, with absolutely zero percent body fat and a quite muscular body. This also means she is very thin and lithe. She stands at 5"2'.<br><br>Her clothing consists of a large black cloak for blocking the Kyrenian colds, which has a hood for covering her face. Underneath it, she also wears a small black combat skirt, reaching about an inch above her knees, and a white sleeveless shirt that shows a bit of her midriff. Over top of this, she wears a small Mythril chestplate, black in colour with red detail.<br><br>She also has light greaves following her black and red motif. All her armor is moderately light and flexible, allowing for speed and precision.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Abilities/Weapons: Aikiden is a ferocious warrior, with lightning fast reflexes and phenominal grace. She weilds a two ended Naginata that has a shaft about four feet long. She doesn't have any magical powers, but her physical prowess makes her able to hold her own against many enemies. Unfortunately she isn't the strongest of people, both in terms of raw power and toughness. She can't handle pain all that well because she hasn't been badly injured before, at most, only small cuts.<br><br>When Aikiden fights with her fists, she uses a fighting style from another nearby De'rosovian nation. It mainly consists of grabs and acrobatics.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Character: While Aikiden seems very cold, she is actually just very shy. The only place where she truly feels at home is in combat, and anywhere else, she knows nothing about. While her people consider her a truly evil person for practicing combat, she is a kindhearted girl that realizes the importance of knowing how to fight. While she doesn't truly care what her people think, she has been somewhat emotionally scarred by her family's rejection of her. This has made her somewhat unwilling to open up to people. Other than this, she always wants to help people and protect them, even if she doesn't know them, willing to go to lethal force shockingly quickly for her normal personality. In combat, she is absolutely ruthless, uncaring for her enemies and willing to even give her own life to save her allies. She doesn't truly care about herself, but only wants to live more so she can become more powerful to protect people. Because she isn't used to speaking English, her language skills are somewhat low, but she's quick to go blurt out Kyrenian when frustrated, embarassed or hurt. (Note: when speaking, the absolute closest I can say her accent is is a slight Russian edge on it)<br>&nbsp;<br>Bio: Aikiden was born as Deliana to the S'zerosara tribe; a nomadic group in cold, snowy mountains. However, her tribe was a passive one, where any aggressive acts were deemed to be acts of demonism. On some of their travels when she was six, Aikiden's brother and sister were killed by bandits, and none of the other tribesmen were able to do anything about it. From that point, Aikiden secretly began improving her combat prowess. About four years later, it paid off when the very same group of bandits attacked the tribe, thinking they were going to be easy kills and easy payoff. They didn't expect a ten year old girl to quickly dispatch of them with an improvised spear made from a shovel. Despite saving all of their lives, the elder of her tribe exiled her for using aggression to save them. Even her parents were furious and uncaring. Frustrated as she was, she knew there was no way to talk her way through it. She got all of her things and left to travel. She; however, regretted nothing. She was evil. A demon, possessed by thoughts of bloodlust and violence. But she felt good. Like she had done the right thing. The name her family had given her as she left still heavy in her heart. "Aikiden" The kyrenian word for Demon.&nbsp;<br><br>After a few of walking through the harsh landscapes of Kyrenia training for hours out of every day, she made her way into another country, exhausted and deep in despair. As she would soon realize, this was the military capital of the area, and here is where she lived for three years, learning all she could about combat. Every day, it hung upon her what her parents would have thought, and the name eventually overpowered her own. No more was she Deliana, she was now only an "Aikiden", a demon of violence and aggression. It didn't fit to her personallity, but to her mind, it was what she was. When the girl was 18, she left to gain more power to protect, and maybe even find out a bit about herself. &nbsp;<br><br>

				<div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">General</span></span></strong></div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Username:</strong> Hiru Harada<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Hiro Hikari (Hiru Harada)<br><br><strong>Role:</strong> Spectator<br><br><strong>Origination:</strong> Unknown. At (presumably) six years old, Hiru was found homeless on the streets of Korea in the middle of what was said to be the heaviest thunderstorm in years. The woman who found him. Asuka Hikari, adopted him almost immediately and took him in as her own.<br><br><strong>Race:</strong> Spectral<br><br><strong>Age:</strong> Unknown. True age cannot be measured in current time-space or dimension. Presumed age at time of death: 19<br><strong>Gender:</strong> N/A. Hiru’s soul has no sexual affiliation. In life, he was male.<br><br><strong>Description:</strong></span> <div class="floatright">(http://i1213.photobucket.com/albums/cc475/H1ru/HiruHarada.jpg)</div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">The necklace he wears holds a blue crystal inside a sturdy leather strap. The crystal glows when water touches it.</span><br><br><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">Abilities/Weapons:</span></span></strong></div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Melee:</strong>No special training. He relies on instinct and blunt improvisation in a physical fight. The only problem is, he weighs less than twenty pounds total. Due to the immense spiritual pressure that is used to energize the water that makes up Hiru’s body, it is extremely light where the normal volume contained in his body would weigh much more. So, in other words, his bare fist really doesn’t pack a whole lot of punch. Still, he’s more than capable of lifting heavy, solid objects and hurling them at super-human speeds, solely because of his tremendous spiritual pressure.<br><br><strong>Firearm:</strong> No knowledge of firearms or other projectile weaponry. He generally looks down upon gun fighting as impersonal and cowardly.<br><br><strong>Elemental:</strong> Hiru’s elemental abilities are solely based upon water. Themes for numbers 2-3 have been provided at the bottom of this file.<br><br>&nbsp;- - <strong>1. Thermal Vortex –</strong> Remotely control the temperature of any body of water. This technique combines both Hiru’s and the Death Keeper’s spiritual pressures to remotely create thermal vortexes within bodies of water. Hiru must be calm in order for the two spiritual pressures to successfully mix without becoming unstable.<br><br>- - <strong>2. Storm –</strong> Creates a heavy downpour within an area surrounding Hiru. He has to activate his true power to be able to gather moisture over the area he’s in, then using thermal vortexes can create rain, snow, hail or boiling-hot mist. Once again, Hiru must remain calm in order for his spiritual pressure to remain stable.<br><br>- - <strong>3. Waves –</strong> Uses sound waves to reverberate through a body of water, or a container of water. Can be a living organism. Again, remotely, Hiru takes hold of the element of water, usually from a safe distance. This time, the Death Keeper has no play in what Hiru is doing. If he loses control, there’s no telling what could happen, especially if the water he is controlling is inside the body of a living creature.<br><br>- - <strong>4. Shape-shifting - </strong> The fact that Hiru is dead leaves certain implications. One, his human body could not withstand the addition of a demonic soul, throwing off the balance of spiritual energy within. Therefore, his body quickly deteriorated, and was soon replaced when the demon materialized an exact replica by concentrating Hiru’s own spiritual pressure into a condensed material which, naturally, bonded with the life energy found in water. Therefore, the demon itself is capable of generating any shape, color and size it desires. Again, because of the lack in weight and density, his best bet for a weapon would be something sharp that could be easily drawn back together if shattered or severed from the rest of him.<br>This also awards Hiru other interesting advantages, such as infiltration, identity fraud, voice augmentation(hence the lack of actual vocal-chords) and personally rendering himself into any desired form. He could take on the form of Inuyasha one minute, and the next he would be Jaws. Literally, his rendition of the shark from the movie.<br><br>- - <strong>5. Succubus - </strong> Because of the nature of the demon within Hiru’s outer shell, he is able to drain and absorb the spiritual pressure of any living thing at tremendous rates. If something has just died, and its spirit is still lingering, that would only make it easier for the demon to absorb that energy. Using this technique allows the demon to regenerate Hiru’s outer shell without having to use any of his spiritual pressure. It can also replenish Hiru’s spiritual pressure almost instantaneously, instead of having to rest after a large amount is drained at one time.</span><br><br><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">Character</span></span></strong></div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Personality:</strong> Hiru is extremely soft spoken. Most often he will go without speaking, even around people he is somewhat familiar with. He’s always thinking distantly, staring off into space. If it weren’t for that, nothing would slip past his perception. However, once he loosens up a bit, he can be one of the most light-hearted people you’ve ever known. The oddest thing about Hiru is his affinity for water. Not only does rain affect him, but the necklace he wears, with the blue crystal hanging from it, seems to have a connection as well.<br>Any time Hiru is nearby when a storm is about to hit, he immediately changes direction and heads for that area, long before anyone would even think a storm was coming. More importantly about the necklace; the day Hiru died, it seemed to die with him. The leather crumbled to dust in a matter of days, and the crystal slowly shattered into millions of pieces, as if immense amounts of pressure were being added to it at a gradual pace. Now, the light that once shone from the necklace rests within Hiru’s spirit. Whenever it rains, two pinpricks of that same blue light can be seen glowing from the exact centers of his spectral eyes in addition to the light generated by his synthetic clone of the original necklace.<br>Since Hiru is dead, he never sleeps, only goes into stages of stillness when he is resting. Usually, when he enters into this state he becomes completely silent, and can remain unresponsive even during the most aggressive physical provocation.<br><br><strong>Bio:</strong> Three days after Hiru was born, he was found abandoned on an island by the people who inhabited that island. He was wearing a necklace when they found him, a strong. When he was six, he disappeared from the island without any trace of where he had gone. The only thing the people remember is how intense the storm had been the night he had gone from them. The next thing Hiru knew, he was in the street, almost completely naked, and it was still storming. After a day of walking, he was found and adopted by a woman whose name was Asuka Hikari. She took him in, clothed him, named him, and enrolled him in school. The only reason she named him was, when she asked his name, he said nothing. He was foreign to the area. Eventually, he discovered the place he had come to was known as Korea. However, the woman who had adopted him was Japanese. Since Hiru was neither Korean nor Japanese, but he looked more like her than he did anyone else, she assumed he was the same as her.<br>Once enrolled in school, Hiru showed immense aptitude, far surpassing his entire grade in a matter of months. However, from the first day he was getting picked on for his differences. Halfway through his first year, he picked up a steel chair and threw it at another kid for trying to steal his necklace. He was expelled the next day for attacking a teacher who had tried to take it from him during a test. The teacher was promptly transported to a hospital shortly before Hiru was removed by police escort from school grounds.<br>Hiru was put through counseling, which taught him to lie tremendously well when dealing with interrogation. He was also enrolled in home-schooling with a local private tutor. He went from grade 1 to grade 7 in four years. After those four years, his step-mother couldn’t afford his classes anymore. So, for the next three years, she saved her money for when she could give him more advanced material. However, the public school system had spoken with Hiru’s anger management counselor, and decided to let him back in. So, at age twelve, Hiru entered into 8th grade. Which would last him about half a year.<br>A certain girl in his class had grown quite fond of him. She would always want to spend time with him. He didn’t mind, she was a nice person. The only problem was, she was always fascinated by his necklace. She always wanted to look at it, and it made him uncomfortable. Finally, one day, she reached out and touched his necklace trying to grab it to get a closer look. By the end of the day, he was once again expelled from school. He had broken her hand when he grabbed it, slamming it into a desk. He then pushed her back, causing her to fall over a chair. The back of her head slammed on the floor, cracking open and bleeding profusely. She was rushed to the hospital. Hiru, for the second time, was given a police escort off of school grounds. Only this time, he was arrested. The police took him to a juvenile detention center, where they tried to take his belongings, including his necklace. Hiru had other plans in mind. He escaped from custody and ran. How he escaped was a mystery, since the intensity of the explosions that destroyed the building should have killed him. His body was the only one missing from the wreckage.<br>For years, Hiru searched for a new home, jumping between world after world after world. He began to notice that the pace of time in each new dimension seemed to be different from the last. Some of them were so far off from what he was used to, he eventually gave up trying to keep track of his own age. All he could do was stay alive. He ate out of dumpsters, he robbed people and stores for food, he even took clothing when he needed it. But he didn’t mind. His whole life, he’d known that his mother had been gone. That none of the people he’d met were his family. They couldn’t be called family, because they weren’t related to him by blood. He knew that family was blood, and he could not be convinced otherwise. He took advantage of people who tried to help him, and did whatever he could to stay hidden from sight. To this day, no one knows where he is. Those who do don’t know who he is, or where he came from. And the only thing he knows is that he doesn’t want to be there.</span><br><br><div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_u"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">Miscellaneous</span></span></strong></div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong>Death Keeper:</strong> The Death Keeper is a demonic entity which acts both parasitically and symbiotically. It chooses its hosts while they are in the process of dying, when the soul is just partially separated from the physical shell. This is when it takes its host, weaving its own spiritual essence between the host's body and soul, keeping them tied together, trapped in the world of the living. It breaks down the body of its host, only to rebuild it into something stronger and more durable than before. The body of the host will lose all unnecessary organic material, which will likely be replaced by the physical body of the Keeper itself. Bones, muscle, and all internal organs will gradually be purged, making way for the complete physical bonding between demon and host. The worldly appearance of the demon is that of a dark, decomposed skull with several root-like tentacles protruding outward from its back. Through the eye-sockets, if one looked closely enough, one would see the blackened heart of the demon still beating inside. As for the spectral appearance, it’s basically the same thing, only its ‘head’ and ‘tentacles’ are glowing bright red, with a brilliant, almost white light glowing from within the center of its head. Since this is the spectral body of the demon, it is relatively transparent to those who would look upon it. That is the image each host sees before they are taken as their spirit is trying to escape from its earthly shell. Although the Death Keeper awards its host a continued existence in a look-alike body, it has been known to act on its own from time to time, leaving the host completely helpless to watch through its eyes.<br>Since it takes so long for a single host to diminish, the is no knowledge of the origins of this demon, except to the oldest of beings in existence. This is aside from the few lucky enough to have encountered the demon and not be possessed by it. But those who know, know that it chooses the body of a host at the time of death because this is the most stable method of possession. Also, it does have parasitic tendencies. If it goes too long without a fresh spirit, it will turn inwardly and begin to feed off the spirit of the host. Regardless of what small freedoms it grants the host, its behavioral tendencies are strongly parasitic.<br>By the Death Keeper’s count, the host at some point ends up trying to take advantage of the Death Keeper’s power, exhausting their own spiritual energy in the process. Eventually, they are consumed by the demon itself. However, one who forms a stable bond with the demon in spirit as well as thought could easily gain access to seemingly limitless resources of power, becoming virtually immortal. However, the chances of that happening are greatly diminished by the demon's preference to seek out the most arrogant, self-centered, angry and violent forms of life it can get its hands on. That is, if it had hands.</span><br><br><div align="center"><span class="bbc_u"><strong><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">Themes</span></strong></span></div><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Hiru</span></strong></span><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size">Cowboy Bebop AMV: Gorillaz - Tomorrow Comes Today (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3Se71zCOos#)<br><br></span><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Death Keeper</span></strong></span></div><div class="floatright">Korn - Dead Bodies Everywhere - Faces of Death (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_X5p5bbW4bE#)</div><br><br><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Weather Control</span></strong></span><br>Gorillaz-On Melancholy Hill Official Video [HQ-HD-Lyrics] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGPp4f3-U34#ws)<br><br><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-size: 8pt;" class="bbc_size"><strong><span class="bbc_u">Body Control</span></strong></span></div><div class="floatright">Deftones - You've Seen The Butcher (HD Official) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=woAcXSMyCEw#ws)</div>

				<strong>I appologize for the videos. I wanted to make them just links, but it kept putting the videos there instead. I'm not sure how to fix that. Also, the HD ones showed up diferently in the preview, so I thought they would be smaller. :|</strong>
