Ultimate power kinda sucks, so here's the deal. Post what you want it to be, and the name with the most votes is the name of the arenas. Note that not all the arenas are goingto be from FF VI.

Also, email me your characters at joker_doom@hotmail.com. When I get enough, I'll tell everyone. Here's the rules again (Slightly errata'd):

-Stats are base 18 (Racial/template modifiers added on).
-Starting level 10th.
-HP is maxed
-Standard starting gold
-Though I allow it, I hate psionics, so please limit the # of psion/psychic warrior players.
-If there is an odd number of players, the odd (Randomly selected) will face off with a monster with a CR equal to the character. A monster with class levels goes by ECL.
-Templates and races with ECL up to +10 are allowed. A +10 monster has only origional HD. A template is a level 0 (Apprentice) character. Due to the massive drop in HP, taking very high templates (Above +3 or so) is risky.
-PUT CHARACTERS IN MM STAT-BLOCK FORM. A couple of personality traits makes for interesting competitors, but stories are not neccesarry (After all, you're here to kill).
-Do not post characters here. It's up to other players to figure out what you are. Desctiptions with some visible equipment will be posted.

TEMPLATE RULES:
1. ECL +1-10
2. Unless said otherwise, a template's ECL+ is CR addition +1.
3. Fiendish, celestial, and other level-dependent templates are +3 unless noted otherwise.
4. More than one template can be applied, within reason. Example: Fiendish shadow drow.

MM Stat-Block:

Name
Gender, creature type, and level (Example: Female Gnoll Bbn8)
General type (Example: Humanoid (Gnoll))
Hit Dice:
Initiative:

AC:
Attacks:

Just cut and paste. The skills posted are all the skills that can be used untrained. Remember to add any trained-only skills the character has.

Now come on people, join this game. Setzer is trying hard, and deserves to NOT be let down!

Thanks for the backup LeeCHeSSS. I really appreciate it.

One more thing: if you start later, when everyone else has gained levels, you can still only take monsters/templates with a +10 bonus or less. After all, it wouldn't be fair.

I'd join but im not a fan of high level or high power adventures. I generally try to stick around 4-6th level and advance from there. Sorry. :(

Fair enough. I'm putting most details out for players to decide anyway. I don't have a poll, so here:


1st--Gimme a weapon, I'll figure out the rest
5th--Fireball and weapon specialization
10th--The middle of the game, until I kill enough anyway
15th--Near perfect, just wanted to earn meteor swarm
20th--I'm not here to wait, I'm here to kick ass
25th--I AM IRON MAN
Other

I am in; but what good is making a munched up character if no one gets to look at the sheet an cower in fear :)

Also your call. Any player that doesn't want to doesn't have to though.

This may sound a little mean but not intentional. Why do you think the results of this will be any better than those of Ultimate Power?

Because if I let prospective players decide, then it's not my fault if the name is weird;) .

Oh, so you tried to trick me by changing Ultimate Power's name, eh? Well I won't be fooled so easily...


Yeah, that means I'm playing.

Well you have the same two players :)

If you are looking for a game similar to this but higher level Gnarsh check out battle royal.
