Enter the Arena... As Your Avatar (v4)!

@Ferg: I thought Foxy had an eyepatch. :/ There's DA for you, I guess.

...huh. He should have one, yeah. ._.

I'd like to add Blood Gulch to the selection list, if we haven't done it already.

Both the map and a picture can be found here.

-a young woman appears in Mos Eisely, obviously armed-

Wait, I'm lost. Were we selecting a new map?

And a different ordinary little girl is walking down the street, looking angsty (and apparently unconcerned with the heat).

-Piroko wipes her brow, and looks around for shade-

-she takes note of the various holes, small craters and scorch marks about the place-

Fate The ordinary little girl spots Piroko.

"You there." she says calmly, tonelessly.

-Piroko turns around to see the girl, pistol in hand; not pointing it at the girl, but ready to be-

-she nods in acknowledgement-

(meanwhile, there is this other girl, in a sailor fuku-type costume and with a red ribbon in her hair)

(as stoic as Fate, she watches the two of them from the roof)

"Who are you?" -that same calm, toneless voice. If she's scared of the weapon, she isn't showing it.-

-quiet enough that the other girl can't hear it, to... the back of her hand?- "The opponent seems to have a mass-based weapon. Bardiche, are you ready?"

Yes, sir. Defenser is set - upon command or threat.

-fails to notice Homura-

I thought she died and wasn't coming back?

What is this, the angsty Dark Magical Girl special?

Good point.

(actually, scratch the red ribbon)

(this other girl instead has a weird shield on her left arm)

(reaching into it, she pulls out a rifle and takes aim - but at which target?)

Piroko is the FPS persona, not the Endgames one.

-Piroko is aware that she is being observed, but chooses not to glance at Homura-

-to the girl- I am a traveler. I bear no ill will, if that is what you mean to ask.

"I understand. Unfortunately, this may not be that easily resolved." -is she on guard now, steeling herself for something?-

(Homura is busy assessing her options)

(on the one hand, Piroko has more visible armaments)

(on the other hand, Fate seems eerily similar to a meguca, yet Homura can't find her Soul Gem simply by sizing her up)

(who to shoot, who to side with...?)

Fate has a fairly clearly visible yellow triangular jewel on the back of her right hand. Soul Gem? If it is, it's clean.

-Piroko puts away her pistol and pulls her universe's equivalent of the Vector K10 from seemingly nowhere, aiming it at the girls head-

I don't have beef with you...

"I do not wish to fight you either, but this is a battle arena, and I have been sent here to prove myself" -looks away- " _{especially after my last humiliating defeat}." -shudder-

"If you are to be my opponent, then so be it. I am not afraid of your mass-based weapon."

(Homura is now visibly raising her M16 rifle, but not really taking aim at a particular target yet)

DAMN it's been a long time since I showed up on these here forums. Last time I think was when ETAAYA V3 was still going. Pretty sure I just up and disappeared. BUT it's about time I jumped back in. It's a real sham I've never experienced anything Star Wars before. Either way, here comes Jane Doe!

A red blur in the sky followed by some rather manly, high-pitched screaming precedes the unfortunate Soldier's entrance to the desert town(?), punctuated by the cracking of a few bones and a smoking rocket launcher barrel.

"I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY INFILTRATED THE BASE, SPY. NOW WHAT?" He screamed at nobody in particular. Maybe at the people in the Market (1) stalls in front of him. If that was the case, they weren't listening. To anyone around him, it became obvious that he was speaking through a mic on the inside of his obscenely oversized helmet.

"YES, I AM IN SPACE. NO I DO NOT KNOW WHERE EGYPT IS. WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH TODAY'S MISSION? YOU WHAT? SORRY, *KSCHSH* YOU'RE *KSCKSH* BREAKING UP."

Looking down (Presumably, his eyes were obscured by his helmet. There was no way to know what he was looking at. His legs were pretty bad. They were red. Then again, they were always red. He was on RED team after all. Still, it would probably be a good idea to find some medicine.

I haven't done this in at least a year and a half. Should I include, like, a full loadout? Or is it all good and can I start going around and being the little voice in Mr. Doe's head?

It's all good by me. Considering just who you're up against, you're probably gonna need your full arsenal.

I'm not the only potential enemy here, realize that. For example, there is a young lady on the roof busy deciding which one of us to shoot at.

A mysterious spacecraft can be barely seen silhouetted against the desert suns

...

Welcome back, I guess. Have you read the rules on the OP?

"Is that so? Then I suppose my intentions are not immediately hostile." -stays on guard against both the known threat and the unknown one. Looks around for Homura.-

-manly screams and loud yelling-

-looks around some more- Oh well, it is a battle arena...

And suddenly, it's become a party. At least Hobo's not gonna play Conflict Killer this time.

-still pointing her gun at Fate, Piroko looks up towards Homura-

You're not completely invisible, you know.
