ARMS War
you wake up in a room, a man standing over you in a suit, a bright light shining above you, obscuring your view. As you try to move you discover that you are completely restrained. "now I bet you are full of questions, why am I here, who are you, but none of that matters. All you need to know, are the rules" He tells you calmly, pulling out a vile of blue glowing liquid. Jamming a needle into it "you have been selected to enter a tournament. A battle royal to the death. Why are we doing this? You dont need to know, the winner will receive 100 million, and a full pardon for any crimes committed during the tournament." Disinfecting your arm. he slides in the needle, "To make things more interesting, you will command the Augmented Replicating Modular System. ARMS will enhance your physical abilities, and through force of will you can sacrifice those advantages for superhuman abilities though once altered you cannot cannibalize these powers, they are perminant. Upon killing your enemy you can drain all the ARMS from them to enhance your own power, though any alterations they have you will gain as well." Pulling out the needle. "When near another ARMS user, you will gain a vague awareness of their presence. This never gets more exact then a few hundred feet, but with dedication anyone can be tracked so if you want to stay alive I suggest you fight. Oh and do not tell anyone, they will not believe you, and we will eliminate them just to be sure" As he walks away you feel yourself losing conciousness. "Welcome to the ARMS Run"
You awake near where you were abducted, a bank card with a pin number in your pocket. The note simply read "for expences" with a thousand dollars in the account. A few days had passed and more importantly you could feel it, an odd sensation that somehow you understood. The others, they were near. ********************************************** As the intro described, you start out with a small amount of ARMS, it is mixed in with your blood and gives you exceptional athletic ability nearing the human limit. You tire rarely and even sleep less. ARMS regenerates itself, since the first dose merges with your blood it is nearly impossible to bleed out. If you consume enough ARMS to replace other body parts although slower. Say ARMS replaces their whole body, then as long as they are alive they will fully heal from anything. Although in theory one could be revived with ARMS, since the winner strips away the losers ARMS this becomes moot. And when I say stripped away, I mean whatever has been altered, at the very least you will be completely draining the loser of blood as it assimilates with your body Initially it is unnoticable. But after a few kills oddly colored veins begin appearing, and soon the skin changes too and slowly body parts begin being replaced. These replaced body parts function well beyond the human limit, and at the cost of allowing ARMS to spread inhuman alterations can be made. Ranging from even greater strength, to claws or a tail, even to breathing fire and telekenisis. Keep in mind unless altered ARMS users are human. Lethal weapons stay lethal. ARMS is measured in units, with one unit being equal to what everyone started with. A unit is also enough to convert 1% of the human body, and regenerates at one unit an hour. Players will start with 20 kills, and thus 20 units of ARMS to spend. Inhuman alterations have clearly inhuman appearance so although less of your body is covered, the parts that are, are harder to hide. Conversions are as follows 2- basic physical enhancements, claws, fangs, small increases to strength or speed. For 3 these alterations can be added to parts not converted by ARMS 3- Major alterations to body, added limbs, wings, and organic weapons such as posions and acid, for 4 can add these to other parts of the body 5- Unnatural modifications, wingless flight, lightning, excellerated regeneration 10- Impossible for parts not altered by ARMS, these are highly destructive or protective powers. Energy cannons, defensive shields, instant regeneration, a punch that can crater the earth, are all examples. Since you start with 20, about enough to fully convert one limb, 10 is basically off limits, but as the game progresses you will get more points. Unless I get more then 5 people everyone will be on the same team. Profile Name: Gender: Appearance: Parts converted by ARMS should be listed here ARMS: List the powers you have if any Equipment: Got anything besides your ARMS and the clothes on your back? Backstory: What you have done since this whole thing started Motivation: Why you fight, even if its simply "to survive" Allignment: are you good or evil, chaotic or lawful, or even true neutral
