  1. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, fighting Artorre) Zakaro wouldn't say this fight was going well. It wasn't a complete blow-out of a battle, neither Toa was winning or losing particularly fast, though he would he to admit the Ta Toa held the advantage at the moment, as Zakaro's Pakari was beginning to get uncomfortably hot as tongues of flame lashed across the purple surface. His shoulder armor was is bad shape as well, as it began to deform and bend out of shape, the weight of the pad sending the top half leaning slowly down to rest against Zakaro's head. Desparate times call for desparate measures, he supposed. With one smooth motion, he yanked on both Artorre's leg and pulled his left arm back, trying to throw the Ta Toa into his right shoulder as the Onu Toa thrust the other pad forward, trying to connect with Artorre's exposed side, as Zakaro had a grip too far down to aim for the head and Artorre's arm was in the way of a chest blow, so side it was.
  2. And this is when I wish I was on a computer to use that image Ehks loves so much. Oh well. But hey, welcome! Don't worry, we don't bite often. All you need to do is remember that Voltex lies, Xaeraz is the Master of Spines, MOOOOOOOOOOOOM, QP is always Mafia, Pulse and Chro are the logical ones, aaannnddd always suspect Taka. that should do it..... Yeah. Welcome to our dear BZP Mafia. Stay forever, until Real Life takes your soul away.
  3. Ah, yes. You are correct in that, Artorre's sword is stuck in the left shoulder pad, though as it's currently being heated, it may be easier or harder to pull out, depending upon whether you think some of the pad has melted or not.
  4. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, fighting Artorre) The burst of flames and heat was almost welcome for a second or two, before Zakaro began to sweat at the intensity of it. If he had bothered to glance over, the Onu Toa would have noticed his shoulder pad starting to glow, but his attention was diverted elsewhere as steam and smoke began to destroy visbilty even more. Slamming his eyes closed, Zakaro clutched at Artorre's leg, the earthen hand losing its grip and starting to crumble in the cold as the purple-masked warrior tried to get his own grip. Even as that occured, his Pakari glowed slightly once more and he sliced upwards again, roughly aiming for the hips.
  5. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, fighting Artorre) There wasn't nearly enough time to fully dodge, with his sword extended and flying into the snow, so Zakaro did the best he could. As the weapon traveled downwards, the Onu Toa grabbed it with his left hand, freeing the right. While he twisted to the right and down, he brought his shoulder to meet the strike, Artorre's flaming weapon cleaving halfway through the strange, wheel-like armor Zakaro wore. Taking advantage of the moments the Ta Toa would need to remove the blade, Zakaro punched forward at Artorre's trapped leg with a Strengthened fist. OOC: I now have a greater respect for people who regularly type out mobile posts. XD
  6. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Artorre) The flames washed over the Onu-Toa, charring his armor and some flesh, but with the cold still creeping in his bones it was almost a welcome heat. With a grunt Zakaro clawed at the air with his left hand, the action creating an earthen hand sprouting from the ground to grab at Artorre's legs again. Without missing a beat, the purple-masked warrior lunged forward, slicing diagonally towards Artorre's gut as his Pakari glowed, indicating the extra Strength behind the cut. OOC: Just a warning, my activity will be quite limited over the next few days and I'll likely be posting from mobile, but I do intend to continue and finish out this fight the best I can. Zakaro
  7. OOC: Things all depend, but in this case I'm thinking the snow wouldn't be as deep as, say, it was during Zakaro v. Daltrahk, because this is higher and and as such more exposed to the wind, but I digress. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Artorre) The Earth Toa brings up his own broadsword to deflect Artorre's blade, likely sending it over the Onu-Toa's head if Artorre didn't bother to bring it back as soon as the steel clashed. Grinning at his opponent, Zakaro aims a one-handed stab at Artorre's left side and then drops down, trying to sweep the Fire Toa's feet out from under him. Zakaro
  8. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Artorre) "True enough," Zakaro replied, rolling off to a side and coming up on his knees. From that lower position he smacked the ground, sending a shockwave towards Artorre, before climbing to his feet and moving forward again. There was about 10 feet of snow separating the two Toa now, though that was rapidly decreasing. "Mt. Ihu's not known for its beaches, after all." Zakaro
  9. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Tarakava Battle) Zakaro was, for his part, debating whether to continue attacking the Tarakava even as a majority of the other fighters around fell into the snowdrifts around. His choice was made for him, however, as he caught sight of a Ta-Toa charging down a hill, snow flying every which way in his wake. Zakaro grinned at this new opponent and charged forward himself, letting his very steps shake the ground once more. With one hand, he retrieved his sword, and the purple-masked Onu-Toa called out a greeting of sorts even as he continued forward. ""Ello there! Not exactly your preferred climate, now is it?" Zakaro
  10. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Joining a Battle) Zakaro was cold. Cold and bored. In hindsight, wasting elemental energy on just stomping around wasn't the best of plans. Just stomping around recklessly wasn't the best of plans either. Stomping around in general, it seemed, didn't work too well. So now the Toa of Earth was shivering in the icy winds. Not fighting in Mt. Ihu, not continually moving quickly, was indeed one of the great downfalls that he had seen many fall into. You don't move enough, you cool down, and you can't focus. That was what Zakaro was beginning to experience. Without a doubt, it was time to do something. Just in time, too, because if his ears weren't deceiving him, that was the sound of a battle in the distance. Charging forward, he came upon some fighters-it was too windy to really make them out- fighting a large beast of some sort. Eh, didn't matter, that was something to fight! Yelling in elation, Zakaro sent a shockwave of earth energy towards the beast, though he wasn't going to make any concessions for the others fighting it. Every man for himself, after all. OOC: Zakaro joining the Frost Tarakava group, including Daedalus, Zel'Sai, and Ismekne Zakaro
  11. on one hand I want to be skeptical of this and dispute things but the potoo and RNG have both clearly chosen their champion, not to mention the bandwagon.. Guess I'll vote for QP as well and point out that we kinda need better RNGs or something. XD Zakaro
  12. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Alone) Zakaro emerged from the snowbank colder, cleaner, and more cheerful than he had entered it. Considering there still wasn't anyone around- at least, not that could be seen through the icy winds- the Toa of Earth went for a blatant approach. First, however, an earth pillar rose up from beneath his feet, carrying him up the cliffside that the purple-masked fighter had first jumped off when the round began. Stepping onto the plains, he started forward, whistling a tone and letting his steps shake the very earth. It could be fun to try and fight off an ambush, after all. Zakaro
  13. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, ..All alone?) Zakaro tumbled to the ground as a strange sort of silence descended over the clearing of snow and ice, spattered with clods of earth and the remains of Daltrahk's lunch. He stood up and nodded to himself, speaking to naught but the air and probable cameras. "I thank you, Rule-Upholder." It was only after a few more seconds that Zakaro pulled his sword from the earthen spire and dove back into a snowdrift. He stunk, and that was something that would have to be remedied before he continued on. Besides, other than the fact that it was cold, it was kinda nice in here. "Reminds me of that one round on Ihu where the auto-timer was broken and everyone was separated in that horrid snowstorm... Good times." The ironically unstable Onu-Toa chuckled to himself. Ah, memories.. Zakaro
  14. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) "But that's the point, isn't it? To fight? My, my, you are a hardy one. I'm surprised you can still talk after that." Zakaro stomped his foot, sending a shockwave through the ground to slam into Daltrahk as the Onu-Toa launched himself forward, another earthen pillar expanding beneath him to fire the purple-masked warrior directly at his Skakdi opponent as he attempted to tackle Daltrahk. "Though, I must ask, do you realize that nothing you sustain here is permanent? When you appear in back in the facility, you'll be just fine~" Zakaro
  15. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) The purple-masked warrior spun to a side, ending with another punch propelled by momentum and a Pakari, followed up instantly by a kick from the other side so that no matter which direction he dodged, something would hit Daltrahk. "It'll be... much easier... if you just stay down and get teleported out of the arena!" Zakaro
  16. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) There. Movement, out of the corner of his eye. Zakaro reacted, instantly letting go and rolling to a side as something fired. Without pausing, Zakaro lunged forward again, his mask glowing as he aimed another punch at Daltrahk's gut. Zakaro
  17. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) To say Zakaro was not pleased would be an understatement. His orange eyes practically glowed with anger, and his speech was low, harsh, and deep when he spoke. "You're lucky that's only the third most disgusting thing I've had happen to me in this place," he said, before removing his hand from the Magma Gear- the widening of the Skakdi's eyes when he had heard the thing start to crack had been a tell-tale sign that it was the reason Daltrahk's lunch was now dripping off of Zakaro's armor- and instead grasping the Skakdi's throat. With Zakaro's mask glowing yet again, it was doubtful Daltrahk's throat or spine would last long enough for any hope of escaping to continue this round. Zakaro
  18. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) Well, apparently a Pakari-powered headbutt didn't affect the Skakdi and he was trying to bite him. Angered, Zakaro reared back as Daltrahk's teeth scraped over his neck and head, and then attempted to knee the Skakdi in the gut while his Pakari glowed, showing his Strength going into play. At the same time, the Onu-Toa held onto Daltrahk's arms even tighter, starting to crush them bit by bit. Zakaro
  19. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) The Onu-Toa barely grunted as his punch was deflected out of the way, just frowning before grinning suddenly and attempting to grab onto Daltrahk's arms, holding them both, before trying to slam his face into Daltrahk's jaw, fueled by Strength. If all went well, it might be the KO. Zakaro
  20. Yo, ghidora? From your latest post, it seems you're not entirely aware of how the current scene is set up, I'll lay it out as I see it for ya so that you can adjust things as needed. Daltrahk and Zakaro are in close quarters on a ledge quite a bit below where the dragon-fighting group and a majority of the other fighters are, with Daltrahk backed up against an earthen pillar which Zakaro's sword is currently stabbed into after Dalt deflected it from the hit. Zakaro's using his Strength power and is attempting to both grab onto and then hold still the arm that has the Magma Gear on it while his right arm is punching towards Dalt's jaw. Any questions? Zakaro
  21. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) As experienced as he was, Zakaro would happily admit that he had little to no idea what this Skakdi was doing. His opponent had managed to deflect his broadsword off to the side, planting it in the earthen pillar, and then had taken a swing at Zakaro's skull from the close quarters. Ducking, the Toa's mask glowed as raw Strength filled his body. Zakaro grabbed upwards, trying to grasp onto the Skakdi's strange weapon and hold it away from him while he let go of the broadsword and sent a Pakari-powered punch at Daltrahk's protruding jaw. Zakaro
  22. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) The purple-masked Toa didn't hesitate, considering a majority of the shots weren't even aimed at him and those that were he just blocked with the wide end of his broadsword or allowed to zip by his body with a sidestep. Approaching further, The Onu-Toa lunged forward, stabbing at Daltrahk, while at the same time an earthen spire rose up behind the Skakdi to stop him from retreating further. "Between a rock and a sharp place, eh? Zakaro
  23. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) The veteran grinned and turned, snow flying as his makeshift snowshoes carved long trails in the fluffy ice. "Good. It's been far too long since I've fought!" Charging forwards once more, Zakaro pulled his broadsword from his back and let it trail behind him as he sprinted towards his Skakdi opponent. "Your move!" He shouted, getting steadily closer while tense and ready to dodge when the inevitable attack came. Zakaro
  24. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Fighting Daltrahk) "Oh, really now?" The Onu-Toa answered, smirking at the Skakdi. With two hands, he first threw another chunk of earth at the Skakdi form above before suddenly creating an earth pillar beneath the Skakdi's feet, hopefully sending him flying as it expanded upwards. All the while, Zakaro continued forward through the snow and slush as, higher up towards the peak, he could hear the sounds of crackling lightning and roars of pain. "If you're no newbie, then how is it I've never seen you around? I'd bet a life this is your first time in the tournament, your face betrays you." Zakaro
  25. IC: Zakaro (Mt. Ihu, Snowbank) Perhaps this wasn't a great idea after all. Yes, Zakaro had remained hidden, but despite his best efforts things were unreasonably cold. Brr, brr, shiver, shiver. But, he had surveyed things somewhat successfully (at the least, he could kinda hear things. Vision wasn't all that great, but that's what happens in deep snow..) and as such he was ready to fight! Struggling to the surface, Zakaro glanced around for a few seconds while he made earthen snowshoes- mobility would be of great asset here- and then began his way forwards, on the lookout for opponents. Oh hey, look over there! Some gunmetal grey Skakdi was standing looking around (Daltrahk), he would be a perfect target! Without further planning, Zakaro charged forward, creating a giant earth mass that he proceeded to attempt to bash Daltrahk's skull with while standing a good 10 feet away. "Hey there, newbie!" Zakaro
