(4: The dragon strikes the tundra; reduces the pain of the sands!)

"Let's see if I can manage a slightly larger dragon this time, shall we?"
After a brief chant, a spectral dragon appears. Ready to reduce the attacks of Temuro to grains of sand, it prepares to strike.

1: The weasel vanquishes the canyon and drops facing the Monastery of the Red Butterfly; avoids the foray of the blade!

Weaseling away from the dragon and avoiding it's blade-like teeth, Temuro tries to attack through a gap in the Poet's defense, dropping away from the bites and strikes of his opposition.

 

[Creamsteak]

The Weasel is definitely more powerful, definitely. The problem is... every time I picture the weasel droping in front of the Monastery of the Red Butterfly I see it gettg hit. Also, avoiding the Foray of the blade is a great defense, against things... but not against a dragon.

NEW HANDS!



Merak Spielman's Hand
1: The southern cross kicks the ricefield; silences the onslaught of the spring!

2: The willow sings higher than the volcano; wards off the push of the horn!

3: The raven swims facing the volcano; leaps over the chi of the venom!

4: The southern cross seeks near the orchard; dodges the thrust of the garden!

5: The east wind demolishes the clearing; redirects the thrust of the farm!

Shiba Temuro's Hand
1: The chimera annihilates the tower and slaughters the wood; removes the energy of the body!

2: The fang devastates the village as it severs the Cherry Blossom Pagoda; avoids the stab of the reptile!

3: The scythe slides across the peaks; scatters the offensive of the spring!

4: The snake carves the clouds; shreds the cut of the lash!

5: The mantis rides in the midst of the tombs; parts the slash of the spring!

 

[Knight Otu]

(OOC: Merak has two flags, not one - and I don't think any of my moves could have won )



5: The mantis rides in the midst of the tombs; parts the slash of the spring!

Assuming a mantis stance, Temuro jumps across several headstones while muttering prayers of apologies to his acestors, trying to hit Merak, at the same time trying to part any attacks coming towards him.

 

[Creamsteak]

You are correct... and your hand looks like crap. I think I know what is going to come of this... (cough).

 

[MerakSpielman]

(4: The southern cross seeks near the orchard; dodges the thrust of the garden!)

The Poet feels the influence of his patron constellation once agian shining down on him. As he did before, he summons a shurikin with an elaborate verse, embewing it with the power of the Southern Cross. He hurls it at his opponent, watching it seek him, homing in across the garden of gravestones.

 

[Creamsteak]

Oh my... yep... prediction did come true. Look at that...

The kabuki doll screams at Merak...

"I TOLD YOU NOT TO DO THAT AGAIN! YOUR A HORRIBLE PERSON! YOU CAN'T DO THAT TO ME! I'M THE JUDGE AROUND HERE! GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

The doll then glares at Temuro, who seems to be beaten...

"Oh fine, but if I ever see you again I'm gonna bite your tongue off you poet you!"

Well what excellent work...

Shiba Temuro, you have been dishonored twice now. You descend to Yellow Belt D2, but of course you understand you only need one victory in order to reach the next tier.

Also, I think Sanctus Togashi (also dishonored) would like to have words with you. Maybe in a match, maybe not...

Merak Spielman, the Shadowed Poet... you have succeeded. You are the first Green Belt to come since my first character (Sanctus Togashi). Excellent work. You already know the Southern Cross style, so you now learn the Dragon Style. You can now open a dojo, as a Greenbelt 0.

You gain a Chi Strike and your new Signature Style (Dragon), Master of Emotions, and your dojo style (Southern Cross) also becomes a signature style. You can teach all 3 of your signature styles to any deserving white belt, and create your dojo with whatever requirements you desire.

Summary in short:
Temuro - Becomes Yellow Belt D2

Speilman - Becomes Green Belt 0
Gains Chi Strike
Gains Master of Emotions
Gains Dragon as a Signature Style
Southern Cross becomes a Signature Style
You can select a new Dojo Style

 

[MerakSpielman]

My thanks, honorable judge. I will update my profile.

Yay! A green belt!

 

[Knight Otu]

OOC: Couldn't post all day...

Shiba Temuro, you have been dishonored twice now. You descend to Yellow Belt D2, but of course you understand you only need one victory in order to reach the next tier.

How? Wouldn't that require a victory over a fighter 4 tiers higher than Temuro? I think he is closer to death than to anything else.

Also, I think Sanctus Togashi (also dishonored) would like to have words with you. Maybe in a match, maybe not...

I'd like to do that, but I promised the next match to Jeph, with his character Tso-Nah.

IC:

Temuro bows to the judge and the Poet. "Once again, your tongue has proven to be stronger than the blade. Maybe we will meet again."

He then turns to Tso-Nah: "Tso-Nah-san, I am honored to meet you again. I have to report this loss to my sensei, Rini-sama. If you wish to accompany me, feel free to do so, and tell me of your recent fights."
