Liquid as green as the grass, covering his body. His mouth connected to a breathing tube. Where am I? He asked himself. Looking around he noticed other children like him. They too were in tubes filled with a mysterious liquid. The immense feeling of sleep filled his body. Going numb he closed his eyes. Falling into slumber once more. [COLOR=Blue][SIZE=4][B]¤¤¤[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] ?Open your eyes my child.? When awaking the boy saw a man. Standing tall, beard of white reaching his chest. The man was wearing a lab coat and black pants. But his face was hidden in the shadows. The boys got up, his body was lying naked onto a table. ?Where am I?? The boy asked. ?Your in my laboratory. Sorry that I don?t have much clothing for you.? The man peered at the boys face. His eye looking at the boys chest. The boy gave him a look. But the man seemed trustworthy. ?What are you stating at me for?? The boy asked confused. The scientist?s blue eyes closed. ?I?m seeing if your a success. Your one of the complete ones.? The boy was confused. He looked to see that some of the tubes had notes on them. ?Failed? they said. The boy looked at the man again ?What happened to those ones?? ?Oh them, they were failed so I released them back into the world. My name is Professor kale. Your one of the ?Dead Children?.? kale picked up the boy and lead him into a room. ?I may not have clothes for you, but I do have a suit for you to wear. It may not be much, but you?ll be decent.? The boy put on the clothes and walked around. ?Hey professor, what?s my name?? The boy pondered. ?I don?t have that information, I call you ?Ex-712?.? the boys shook his head. ?Can I have a name?? The professor nodded. ?Yes. I had a son, he died when he was 2 years old. I will give you his name. David?? David smiled. ?Thank you? and what?re the ?Dead Children??[/CENTER][/FONT] [/COLOR] [FONT=Georgia][CENTER][COLOR=Blue][B]Dead Children[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]The Dead Children are experiments made by Prof. Kale. During his years at the lab he experimented with hundreds of kids. He started with adults, but after most of them died, he went to children. It seemed that even though the kids had died, they were brought back during the experiments. Thus the name ?Dead Children?[/COLOR][COLOR=DimGray] Theses kids are immortal. But Prof. Kale?s failures were actually put to death again by sapping the blood of immortality from their veins. The children that passed the experiments were given back to their parents, at the age of 20, they will be told of their destiny.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][B]David ?EX-712?[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]David was brought to the professor dead. A difficult experiment that would prove successful. Unlike all the others, he had no parent to consent with. The other children?s parents wanted the experiments to go on. So the professor decided to keep this child as his own. The prof. Named him after his on son, David Kale.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][B]The Children?s Destinies [/B] [/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]The number of children that are out in the world (1000 have to facet eh choice. Will they either join the good or the bad side of the destiny. Inside the earth creatures will surface. Powerful beings with no love towards humanity. But some of the children want to join them and get back at the professor. Prof. Kale discovered this while experimenting with the earth?s core. The lava had trace amounts of an unknown DNA. One of his assistants was of a polytheistic religion discovered 10 years earlier in the year 2110. His elders had a theory about the DNA, this proved to be true. So the professor wanted to create immortals with odd powers that would be able to stop the beasts. Adults that he experimented with failed, so he used the children. So the kids must decide to help stop the evil coming, or help it destroy the world.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][B]Powers[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Each child has a different ability. The professor?s assistant used magic to give them the powers. Each element was thrown into a cauldron. Along with the DNA of animals. Thus abilities not of mere mortals were born. Each child is different in every aspect, including the powers.

[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkOrange]This one is a mixed bag for me. I think most of the problems spring from the fact that this is definitely too long. Not that poems can't be long, you've just recycled a fw of the ideas too many times. For instance, your plight is obviously trying to make a relationship work, but you only do two things - express your remorse, and say that you think it could work (though apparently your idea of 'work' is 'kill' which I think is cool). Now, it's okay to do these things, and you do them well in spots, but in others you don't. your rhymes are very basic, as I'm sure you have noticed, but that's not really a problem for me if they are functional, and in this case they are. The lines are never so off that you can't imagine them being sung, and everything fits into place well in that sense. Overall your main problem is simply repetition. First and foremost, you don't need so many chorus repetitions, especially not all bunched up in the front like that. There are plenty of substantial lines here, such as the chorus as well as the following for examples: [I]I Thought of suicide, Then I heard you cry. As I held you in my hand, The pain went down like sand. We can be together today, And our hate will go away. Even though were just youth, I can see the valid truth. I can be with you all my life, As I hold the rusted knife. Put it inside your heart, That will make the hate fall apart. Love my our be the way, For each other to stay. You may put me through abuse, But now you see the use. Our lives are now in our hands. As we walk the scarlet sands.[/I] In fact, that part alone could be turned into a poem and be better than the rest of the poem, I'd say. My only suggestions would be removing the word 'the' at the end of stanza 2 and maybe changing the name to 'scarlet sands.' The rest is just sort of there, though certain lines stand out as bad/cheesy: [I]But did I prove a point? Is that why you kicked from your joint? That?s when I realized you weren?t the one, As I burned in the sun. As the children start to cry, Why is there a tear inside your eye? Do you feel some pain, When I fall once again? Or would you rather be alone? Living like a stone.[/I] All in all, I'd say it's alright, better with editing. I'd suggest you go through with a critical eye of your own and do what you think is right.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]I guess long poems have died out around our era. But I see where your coming from.[/COLOR] [QUOTE] [COLOR=DimGray][I]But did I prove a point? Is that why you kicked from your joint? That?s when I realized you weren?t the one, As I burned in the sun. As the children start to cry, Why is there a tear inside your eye? Do you feel some pain, When I fall once again? Or would you rather be alone? Living like a stone.[/I][/COLOR] [/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]I see what you mean by bad/cheesy right here.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]I thought of naming this poem/song or whatever, "Scarlet Sands" but I decided it wasn't used that much as hole. But what can I say, sometime's the name isn't even in the poem.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Thanks for the tips. I guess I can't see the mistakes of my writings in my own eyes, until soemone's eyes do it before mine.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]Today two of my best friends broke up, so here's a song that has those pent-up emotins inside. It say "shit" a couple of times, but nothing M rated. that's why there's a question mark on the raing. Enjoy.[/COLOR] [U][SIZE=3][B][CENTER][COLOR=Blue]When You Said[/COLOR][/B] [/SIZE][/U] [FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=DimGray]I remember my first love, She was a godsend from above. But that turned out to be fake. I put myself at stake. [B]But it really went to shit, When you said ?our love won?t quit.? Then the daggers fell like rain. And all I felt was pain.[/B] That makes you a lost cause, As you tear me up with claws. Why did you have to lie? Now my heart might die. Now every time I see your face, I feel like running from the place. Your stuck inside my mind, As the truth fell behind. Now I feel myself start to brake, As my heart starts to ache. But it all went by so fast, When you said that it would last. Even though I believed, You just started to deceive. I remember all the lies. Don?t you wish that I would die? [B]But it really went to shit, When you said ?our love won?t quit.? Then the daggers fell like rain. And all I felt was pain.[/B] Now all I want to do is die, Why did you have to lie? Can?t you see it?s killing me? I still think we can not be. As I start to die, I can see a tear inside your eye. Do you feel some kind of pain? Do you sense that in death, you have nothing left to gain? Don?t you see, That you can be with me? Our love could last. We could just forget the past. Or would you rather be alone? Living like a stone. I know you may be gone, But that doesn?t mean I?m wrong. And every night I cry, I wish that I would die. [B]But it really went to shit, When you said ?our love won?t quit.?

[COLOR=Blue]You really love this show don't you?! I can tell from the way you posted the threads title.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]It sounds awesome, but one downside... I probably don't have the channel.

[COLOR=Blue]Here is another story I've written. It's a story that takes place in Japan, as well as other places around the world. I hope you all enjoy this latest story.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Red][SIZE=7][CENTER][FONT=Felix titling]Blades of blood[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] [FONT=copperplate gothic bold][SIZE=3]A story of swords and strength[/SIZE][/FONT][/CENTER] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Georgia][CENTER]As the sword was unsheathed, blood dripped from the face of a man. His sweat mixing in with the crimson. Holding his sword like it was his last hold on life. Another man hindering him from becoming a champion. The man?s soul was like a cracker. Easily crushed and falling to the ground. Slowly he panted, trying to breath harder. Despite his condition, he is still willing to fight. A powerful restraint holding him back from using his true skills. As his target got closer, in for the kill he looked around for an escape. But how could he get out? He was definitely too weak to jump out of the arena. The sun?s rays of light beating down on him like a ton of bricks. He couldn?t go on. So he dropped his blade. Sheath and all. The other man, his killer, put his own sword up to the champ?s head. Cutting him slightly, making sure not to kill his victim. But he was scared out of his wits. Surely I will die, he thought panting even louder. Soon he fainted from shock. [][][][] ?The Tournament of the Wielded Katana? was a sure fire way to fame. Warriors from all corners of the world came to Tokyo for a shot at the prize. A million dollars and a mansion somewhere in Japan. Most just wanted the stuff, but some wanted to make a name for themselves. The recent tournament winner was utterly embarrassed by a new comer. Statistics showed that the new champ had no experience with fighting. It was just a natural thing for him. His name, Touguno Yamakura. Only 15 and he became the champion without a bead of sweat falling from his head. He wasn?t the youngest to win. That winner was 10 years old, but unlike Touguno, he trained till he was numb. But anyways, Touguno wanted the money to help his parents. They needed surgery at the local hospital, but were in dept. After they were saved, he became vary famous. Not even being able to move one inch without some raging fan to come to him. He absolutely hated this. But he is ready for the next tournament. If he can keep winning he could become very famous, and he could become a target. [][][][] 18 year old Makizawa Kashino walked the streets of Brooklyn. The year was 2076, much more advanced than it is now. He moved there just a month ago, but he has a knack for the English language. The sun was hidden from the city by the dark clouds looming overhead. Causing the streets to get darker, the sidewalks to get dimmer. So dark in fact that you could just fall asleep on the streets. The sound of the distant rain was like the lullaby of a mother. Makizawa was about to enter his home when he noticed an antique shop. Maybe he could find something from his homeland, Japan, in there. He entered joyfully. To his surprise he saw his mother tending the shop. Like her son, she was able to speak English very well. Her mother was half American, so that also helped. ?Mm, is this the place you bought?? Makizawa asked his mother. She smiled. ?Of coarse. Did you think I?d waste my money working at a Chinese restaurant? I think not. Besides, I?m more interested in this land?s culture and past. Ours is getting boring.? His mother wiping the floor, sat down on an old bench. ?that?s pretty cool of you mom.? Makizawa said. But he was being surfcasting. He didn?t like old stuff that much. Never came to his place of mind before. ?I made some friends on my first day of school. One of them has studied Japan for a while. He has a set of old swords at his house.? His mother?s popped like she just remembered something. ?I got a sword from an old man that came in earlier. I found out that he used to own this place, when it was a hobby shop. I guess he wanted to give me some swords he found. He was in a couple of wars. Go have a look, I know that you like weaponry. Just don?t get to carried away, this day in age, guns are really dangerous.? His mother pointed to the back room. Makizawa shook his head in reply, swiftly he ran to the back room. Makizawa saw a bunch of boxes on the floor. Looking around, he saw them. Two blades well in condition, pretty impressive weapons at that. Picking them up, he blew dust off of them. They weren?t Japanese either. Much of a relief, Japan, Japan all day today at school. He noticed the name on them. George Henderson. The name of the last owner of the shop. The sword?s silver blade shown in the light. As lighting struck, the light flashed against it, blinding Makizawa with a harsh light. But it really induced the sword?s beauty. Interested, he took them up to his room with respect for the old material.[/CENTER][/FONT][/COLOR]

[b][color=blue]Name: [/color][/b][COLOR=DimGray]Chester Cornelius[/COLOR] [b][color=blue]Age: [/color][/b][COLOR=DimGray]173: believes he?s 18[/COLOR] [b][color=blue]Species and clan:[/color][/b] [COLOR=DimGray]Vampire/Nicodemus[/COLOR] [b][color=blue]Appearance: [/color][/b][COLOR=DimGray]His hair is blonde and curly. He mostly wears a hat to hide this, for he wants a different hair color. He has eyes that are steel-like, almost made of iron you could say. He doesn?t believe he?s that great. Because of his lack of self-esteem, he wears completely black clothing with snappy words on his shirts. Usually insults, or jokes. His favorite shirt is a blazer, which he cleans every night . But he rarely wears it. It can be seen hanging on his apartment wall. He is short, standing at a 5? 7?? level. But he is strong looking. He also wears bracelets, rings, necklaces, etc. His favorite earring is a skull with two crossbones. This is made of real bone to. Chiseled and then dipped in to gold. He doesn?t smile often so he just might have yellow teeth. Or maybe they?re perfectly white. His hair is very short so he can fit it into his hat.[/COLOR] [b][color=blue]Personality: [/color][/b][COLOR=DimGray]Chester loves attention, yet he?s the kind of person who is never happy with himself. He wears those black clothes for he thinks they might hide his inner self to those demons around him. By demons he means those who would like to insult him. Yet, he is still made of by a lot of people. His true self was a heroic, justice seeker. Taking no one?s hateful remarks as ?just words?, this has come to the real problem. This sense of justice gets him into danger a lot. It could even be his downfall. But al-in-all he isn?t very bad to others, but himself! That?s the problem.[/COLOR] [color=blue]Biography: [/color][/b][COLOR=DimGray]Chester knows well of what he is. But due to a bump on the head, he has lost sight of his true self. Yet he can still remember his powers, and what he?s capable of. He is a runaway, and rarely has contact with his tribe. They?ve tried to help him realize who he truly is, but he doesn?t need their help. He wants to find that out on his own. His memory loss was due to a fight with one of his friends. They were in a quarrel about the way humans have been acting lately. Chester said something and his friend took it wrong. The man threw his fist so hard it hit Chester?s temple. He really lost his memory when he hit the ground. Some of his human friends are aware of his race, but they swore to secrecy. If the other members of his clan find out, they might try and kill them. When Chester was born, he was born to a rich family member. Jealousy and bloodlust made the end result disastrous. His parents were killed when he was only 2 months old. Yet no one around him wants to tell him why. He is aware of what?s been going on recently and he somewhat fears this. He is at a standstill about his next choice. In life, this causes him much depression and grief.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue][B]Extras:[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=DimGray]Chester can see someone's personality by looking at them. This comes in handy when he fights. Using their personanlity to find their strategy. He is very strong and rarely sucks blood from his victoms. He collects blood in jars that he drains from them instead. Thus, he doesn't cling to necks.He's also very flexable. He can bend pretty well. Because of this, Chester can doge other's attacks pretty easily. Making him very fast and agile. Chester, despite his self-image, respect's himself in terms of power. lpus he puts a lot of trust in his friends. Betraying him will make him mad.

The rays of scarlet had happyness shining brightly. The sarrows of the land were masked by the yellow kiss of the sunlight. But the land itself was like a dead cold hand. Nothing to grip but the cold breeze. Isolated from the rest of its body. The land was filled with dead bodies, the souls of humans wondered like a group of nomads. Searching for a home that it could stay at for just a moment.[/COLOR] [][][] [FONT=felix titling.][B][COLOR=Blue][SIZE=3] Psychotic Fury[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B][/FONT] [COLOR=DimGray]A nuclear war had changed the world completely. What was filled with life and light, had became a dead and dark wasteland. During the great war many had died. Men, women and children alike. Dreams were shattered like glass falling to the floor. The pieces caused more bleeding in a human?s thoughts. It spread like wildfire into the hearts of humanity. But one country stayed away from it all. Now this continent would be called ?the sanctuary.? A place were technology and peace became the only thing separating the land from the war torn world. After the masses of land became nothing but chunks of black forests, tainted water, and broken cities, this place was envied by the rest. So the armies of the world stopped the war and became a union. Soon they started to spread nuclear waste throughout the continent. What they thought would kill humanity, actually made humanity become stronger there. These humans grew angry with the rest of the world. Their anger turned into this new power. A psychotic power, that could bring unimaginable power to one human. So scientists decided to take other humans and make them into theses people. Psychoticans they would be called. But due to few accomplishments, they decided to take families and make them create more. By making innocent people breed constantly. They created an army. It seemed that the toxic waste changed the genetic compound of the humans. Making their children Psycoticans as well. But after that the governments decided it was time to extinguish the flame. They wanted all Psychoticans to die, to perish from existence. Plus they wanted to rebuild humanity.

[QUOTE=JeskaValentine]Hey! I got the hoodie that has the Cereal Killer thing on it from Steve and Barry's! I love it so much. ^.^ I totally agree with the question about t-shirt content. Especially if it doesn't straight out say something offensive. I mean, take your shirt for example. It says Beavers Like Wood... well naturally if you think about it beavers DO like wood. They use it to build thier dams... But even if it is just "offensive" in general, don't look at it. So my idea of offensive and yours are different. Cry about it. I don't particuarly like Christian t-shirts that proclaim Jesus is comming and stuff... but I just don't pay attention to it. So if I wear a shirt that says Save a broomstick, ride a wizard... leave me the ***k alone.[/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]My point exactly.

[QUOTE=2007DigitalBoy][COLOR=DarkOrange]I know what you mean, being that I have that sort of look. All my clothes are black, I have long hair, and I shop at Hot Topic, but it's all out of preference. If that is what deifnes the goth lifestyle, then I supose I'd have to be grouped in there, but from people I know there's a whole lot of stuff factored into being 'goth' that I am in no way a part of. BUT, you can't really be mad at someone for thinking your a goth. I think I'll (indireclty) quote Carlos Mencia on this one... "I'm tired of girls who wear trampy outfits and then get mad at you for looking. They say things like 'these are the style I like, it doens't mean I'm a tramp' (or something to that effect). It''s like if you see someone in a police uniform, you know that their a policeman, right? So you may not be a tramp, ladies, but you're wearing their uniform!" See what I mean? As long as you wear a 'goth kids' uniform, it's only regular that people be confused.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]That, my friend, I agree.

[QUOTE=BKstyles][font=tahoma]From the perspective of a writer, I can tell you that when translating a story idea of any type whether it be a manga or a novel or even a roleplay, while trying to do your own version of revolutionizing a genre is an accomplishment, it is equally as important to make sure you can convey an exceptional portrayal of any concept that interests you or your readers/viewers. It isn't always about how you can change a genre or offer something completely original, because the thing about "original" is that it's difficult to pull out something that can be considered the definition of original when all the years we have been living here on earth, most everything in some shape or form, whether in great abundance or in small bits and pieces has already been done. A lot of the times, a really good story just simply needs a fantastic telling of a concept, regardless of whether it's original or time tested. Someone's version of a concept that has been done can shine brightly amongst the large group of that particular genre if the story, characters, progression, etc are just right. Take vampire movies for instance. I've seen a million of them but Interview with the Vampire stands out to me in so many ways as an incredible movie because of how it tells the story and what is involved in the story. Not an original concept what so ever, but stands out as something special within it's genre. So I wouldn't be so quick to demean people's attempts at following through with something they like just because it may not set out to redefine standards. People typically do things because they like it, even if they do suck at it. That goes for anything, not just drawing and writing.

I've seen the prices. Zen my ***! Holy crappola! Plus why spend a big hunk of your time drawing amanga when you might suck at it. No offence to anybody here, but sometimes it's a bland and already used story. (Hell I think the Japanese are actually running out of ideas.)[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]plus those characters try to hold their masculinity, no matter how hot it gets. (Crap, somethings wrong with me tonight!!)[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=James][font=arial]Without sounding too much like a parent...there are a few things here that really stand out to me. Your band is one of your top priorities? Is it right up there with your education? Also, I think one mistake a lot of people make is to blame others for their actions (or to put responsibility in the hands of others). Are you saying that the absence of your girlfriend "made" you do some bad things? As for the latter stuff...I wouldn't presume to tell you what to do in terms of drugs and stuff but if you're only a young teenager I think it'd at least be worth weighing up how these things impact your life. That your parents let you go out at all is a good thing - I'm sure they care about you very much and want you to focus on the important/beneficial things in your life. For those of us who are adults, I can say that there will be worse things you will go through in your life than being without your girlfriend for a little while. If you use those circumstances as an excuse to do destructive things...you won't get very far at all. I know that teenagers go through these things in general - there's always a lot of turbulence in those years. I guess I just noticed a few things in your comments that seemed like they needed some kind of response. I hope it doesn't come off as harsh - it's just that when you're an adult and you get past that stage, you tend to look back with a new degree of clarity (some don't, but I think most do).[/font][/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]Nah, I don't find it harsh. It's called brutal honesty. Bt I see your points. As for the girlfriend thing, she wasn't going out with me when the bad thing happened. It's really my fault for not listening to my friends. They wanted me to just ask her. And after all that, it only took the simple question. So your friends have a big impact on your mental health! (health unit)[/COLOR] [QUOTE=Farto the Magic] [COLOR=darkGreen]Suck. But hey, at least you have a girlfriend. I'm in college and I have poor taste in women. I generally want to pick the one that is the hardest to attain or maintain (in the most chivalrous sense, I assure you). The current one may very well work out, if either I don't screwup, or the other guy she likes keeps on doing what he's doing. My grades are mediocre and I have one class that's kicking me in the nuts daily. I could drop it, but its required for my major. Its pretty much a sucktacular class and its mildly interesting, but its difficult. I just need to learn how to study appropraitely for this kind of crap. Of course, life could be worse. You could be bedridden or morbidly obese or have cancer or genital warts. As for colleges, keep looking. Some of them have lax standards.[/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DimGray]Thank god I don't have genital warts! But shcool isn't one of my biggest issues. All I have to do is start reading form the books. I'm a smart student, but that sometimes makes me do stupid things. Math used to be my strong point, so was sceince. But lately they've been lagging.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]The pressures of relationship and responsability.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]My pearents let me do stuff don't get me wrong, but they over protect me. I want to go to town, she complains about something, it bugs the **** out of my soul!!! Such things have gotten me in trouble with the band I'm in. Death Vaprs (or DVP) Is one of my top priorities. Plus, I don't get to see my girlfriend much. Her mother's boyfriend lives in the town next to mine, yet it's not the same without her here, plus it's made me make some bad choices in my life. (Don't want to tell them.)[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Plus, my future. Not m,y job, but myself. Still judging on teh smoking and drinking thing. But hey, tis' my bdoy, not someone else's.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]People that don't take respnsability for their actions, and who treaten others with fasle information, and reasons.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]I bet there's been a few members that will do that here. I mean members like that Kuja fellow. After what I read on the Otakupedia, he was very disrespectful. But James solved that quickly now didn't he?[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]On a side note, I like this threads progress so far. Over 100 posts, That's the most my thread's have ever gotten.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Which brings me to my next gear grinder. Spammers. Because of them they usually make a good thread rot like a worm filled apple.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray]I have an idea. Maybe you could add a part about the newer members tht have made an impact on the boards of recent. A quick overview of such members, like what has gotten them popularity.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Such as Tekkaman, BKstyles, Rachiminoff, ForgotteÑ-HerÖ (Me, i now, but I'm not being selfish.)[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]But you now all those of us who have been respected a tad bit on the OB network.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=blue]I'm a big Kigndom hearts fan, yet, I don't obsese about how cute Riku, Sora, or Raxas might be, Now I love it for the way teh characters, act. I like it for the story enemies and gameplay. But I don't think their HOT!![/COLOR] [COLOR=dimgray]Something else that grinds my gears, people who start fight over pety reasons. Today a person, who is on th OB mind you1 (No names) pushed me off my chair at luch then threw it at me. Now I want revenge, yet I'm an honerable man (teenage adolescent adult) He picked the fight when I told him to shut up. He had no right and he scared the crap out of my friend. He made two girls I'm friends with almost want to cry. Now that is a person who deserves nothing more than a smack to the face.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Andrew][SIZE=1]Lots of things in this world really piss me off, using stupid metaphors like 'grinds your gears' being one of them. I really hate it when people talk too slowly or when they repeat themselves. It's even worse when they're slow AND repeat themselves! I hate children/young-teens who think they're 'It' and I hate older-teens/grown-ups who think they're 'It'. (I'm probably gonna get lynched for this one but...) I hate Americans. Or at least the vision the media provides of them. Especially pig-headed 'God's Gift' type people. For all the Americans who aren't like that, you have my sympathy. Of course saying that, the way Blair's going the British aren't looking too hot either. ¬_¬ I hate it when people kick up a fuss over stupid little things, especially to the point of taking legal action. Basically my motto is "It's cool to hate!"[/SIZE][/QUOTE] I[COLOR=DimGray] sort of agree with you on Americans. Plus, if we wren't so stuck up with pride, terrosrists wouldn't hate us.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]I mean helloooo. [/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Its pretty obvious that pride gets the best of you. It's one of the seven deadly sins for god's sake.[/COLOR]

A dark keyblade, which has an enormous power supply. The key chain is a heart with thorns. Shrouded with mystery, it holds many secrets. Its hilt is white and covered with a cast-like material. Its blade is black with a gate like form for the teeth. The other side is white with a fin like spick at the middle.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Abilities: [/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Oath striker - A white aura surrounds Galian. In this state he can jump higher and faster. Boosting power to the legs. Oblivion Blade - The keyblade can fly at will randomly hitting the opponent. After a while the blade starts to return to normal. Phoenix Destroyer - A very power draining technique. Galian Jumps high and twists his keyblade. A symbol forms in the air around him. A ray of light hit?s the clouds and twists reality. A fire like energy ray shoots from the clouds and destroys everything within 50 yards diameter. Soon to be Techniques Thorns of Refuse -The thorns on the blade start to wrap around the enemy. A very useful technique but it binds the opponent long enough to attack him/her. The more it?s used the stronger it gets. Thus it grows power faster than other abilities. Dimensions gate - A giant door appears out of nowhere and shows the enemy(s) biggest fear. It even comes to materialize in a perfect being, spirit and form. Chaotic Decimator - The blade transforms into a 10 foot long keyblade. It can cut almost anything. Its main focus is to demolish the opponent. It can be thrown and create a symbol. This symbol has the words ?Define chaos in its true form? on the outside. It has a hive like shape that repeats itself multiple times. It creates pillars of darkness and light that intertwine each other. The rays go for about 10 yards in diameter and the complete number of them spreads for about 2 miles in diameter. Also known as the Hellish Calamity.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Personality:[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Galian is a normal teenager but with a fiery personality. He is nice to many but get on his bad side and you?re in for a hellish time. For an unknown reason he can?t really feel sympathy for sad people. He falls in love really easy and doesn?t like people to know his crushes. He has red eyes that are like ember. Showing that his confidence shines strong. [/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]History:[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Born into poverty he never really knew the pleasures of life. Dying for a taste of the outside world he went around his local city streets to make friends. At one point in his walks he stopped to find a lottery ticket. Later he found a newspaper that showed the winning results. He won 100,000,000, dollars. After becoming rich at 13 his parents found his strengths in school were getting great. Always having 100?s in gym. Exercising daily and lifting waits. One day a thug was attacking him. In an attempt to save himself Galian killed the man. Later to find that the man was a mass murderer, Galian got 1,000,000 dollars for himself. The academy heard his story and sent him a letter. It read: Dear Galian, We at the key blade academy heard of your achievements. Your willpower and strength gave us the idea that you are an undoubtedly candidate for our prestige school. If you haven?t spent your 1,000,000 dollar reward already bring it with you. You never know when you need the money. Sincerely The Dean. Of coarse Galian knew about the war. His father died in it. Without second thought he plunged into action and joined the academy. Being 19 he is at his last year of the academy. But he is still good at his battling skills and is ready to destroy the darkness behind the Keyblade War. But inside him dwells a secret that could bean a large change in the war.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]Appearance: [/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]His eyes are red and his hair black. He has a very stable build and is very fit. Standing at about 5 foot 10. His shirt is gold and black with the academy?s symbol around it. He wears 10 pond wrist weights and can lift very heavy weapons His pants are black with a platinum tint to the pockets. He wears a ring that has his initials on it. As for his shoes he wears black and gold sneakers. With platinum laces and soles. These wrap up his uniform. As for his face and body he has a scar from his left breast all the way down to his foot and right hand.[/COLOR]

[QUOTE=BKstyles][font=tahoma]There is no denying the PS3 itself is a beautiful piece of machinery, even if you don't intend on playing a single game on it. But the price is definitly rediculous for any of it's features, that goes without saying. Sony is taking some pretty big hits though, not saying they are completely out of the mix yet...but 360 shows no signs of letting up (the original Xbox's mistake), and Wii's afforadable price and mid-year big name releases will be quite the combination to a system already leading ahead. PS3 will need more then just a couple of games, IMO. But yes, most importantly a price drop.[/font][/QUOTE] [COLOR=Blue]Usually the most pricy things aren't the best. So I agree.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]The Wii costs only $259.99. And it's really popular. After a year or so the price will go own and it probably will sell a lot more. It's just that way in our system.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue]We all now of thelatest problem sony has had to face. It's recent lose, was it's 'exclusives'. Devil May Cry 4, Ace Combat 6, etc, etc.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]Devil may cry has now stretched to Microsoft's Xbox 360. Both consoles have the game set for a simutanious launch. As for Ace Combat 6, I heard it isn't even for the PS3 now, it's for the Xbox 360. So do you think the PS3 can survive with this onslught of brocken promises?[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]For me, I don't.[/COLOR] [COLOR=DimGray]The PS3 is already failing in the great console war. With only a small shipmetn to the U.S, for such a large population? I mean come on, were they thinking straight? Plus with the Wii having more sales than the PS3 and the 360 combined, the PS3 on't be bought massively. I remember the PS2 had it's problems as well. Trying to find one, I found out they had to make more. It took a while, but I got one, and it was great. But who knows about now. It could survive and become the greatest of the other 2, really it could. But I think that chance is pretty slim.[/COLOR] [COLOR=Blue]What do you guys think? Will it survive, or will it fail? [/COLOR]
