JesterSpirit Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Ahh the good old days of highschool where you hung out with friends, played games, fought dragons, learned magick, built mechagolems, saved the world from evil deities and the what not. Torneko isn't your average school and things occasionally get a little strange. INFO and HAPPENINGS : Despite being a Japanese school, the dominate language is english, and Torneko High is located in a slightly deserted part of central china. Enrollment is free, finding the place is enough of a challenge. What does one do at Torneko? Study mainly, it is a school afterall. Of course the adventures to other dimensions are fun too. SCHOOL SPIRIT: This isn't painting your face weird colors and wildly screaming the school name. Torneko high is named after an old well known japanese legend of a man named Torneko. He was a traveling merchant who roamed the world looking for great treasure and adventure. And that is the spirit of Torneko high, exploration and adventure. The school constantly sponsors trips to far off and mysterious places. A bunch of hand picked students led by one teacher will take the trip (though it could be a much bigger group depending on where their going). How long you've been enrolled at Torneko and what classes you are in/have passed will determine what type of trips you will get picked for. THE LOST POOL: Nicely located behind the main campus is this rather large seemingly innocent pool of water. The headmaster and his colleagues built the whole school because of this pool. It has undefined magical properties and works like a kind of portal allowing anyone inside to go just about anywhere. Different dimensions, different planet, anywhere. This is the 20th century you know, there are not a whole lot of dragons wandering around earth so you just have to go find them elsewhere now don't you. The headmaster has somehow figured out how to control it, to a certain degree anyway only one out of five sponsored field trips end up somewhere they were not supposed to go. On the student side, The lost pool is off-limits unless under strict teacher supervision of course students still wander over there all the time getting lost and drowned and the what not. Thus swimming classes are always available. CHARACTER CREATION: Now if your still with me heres what you have to do to join up. First things first you have to choose whether you are playing a teacher or a student. I prefer that you only have one character but PM if you wish to play more than one and I may allow it. STUDENTS: This school is based on strange things in a world tapping into just about every anime ever made so i'm leaving it very open. Students can be just about anything but its important to remember that they are students. Ancient demi-gods are not going to attend classes at Torneko. Student characters can have any power you wish them too but they must not be skilled in it or maybe not even know they have it. All students must attend swimming classes, your going to have a problem going through the lost pool if you don't, but you must also choose three other classes from the list at the bottom of this post. What classes you are in will determine your growth. If your taking white magick classes don't portray your character learning to throw ki blast or building lasers. Copy, fill out then post the form below for a student character. Name: ((Your real name and whatever nicknames if you have them.)) Race: ((Just what its called, save the explanation for later.)) Powers: ((Same as above.)) Age: ((No requirements here Torneko accepts all age groups.)) Height: Weight: Others control: ((This is a very important section and you might want to think about it. Now to help speed things up a bit I will be allowing players to control other peoples characters in their post HOWEVER this section is where you decide whether or not you will allow that. If you don't want anyone else portraying your character just put No. If you don't care Yes. If you want them to ask your permission first or whatever put that too.)) Appearance: ((picture, description whatever works for you)) History: ((Here is where you explain your race, powers, how you found the school, why you are attending etc. It doesn't have to be a nine page essay just summarize.)) TEACHERS: Unlike students, Teachers quite literally can be anything. Though of course they need some kind of reason to be here teaching a bunch of greens how to use their powers. Teachers have generally mastered their own abilities but they may have a few hidden ones. All teachers must teach atleast one class though you can teach more than one if you wish. I will point out right now that if your not good at telling stories or GM'ing DO NOT BE A TEACHER. As a teacher you will eventually have to take students on a sponsored trip and it will be up to the teacher to GM the whole trip. What happens is entirely up to you. ((I may jump in on occasion but usually I wont.)) Copy, fill out and post the form below for a teacher character. Name: ((Name, nick name if you have one, or two or a hundred.)) Race: ((Just what its called, explain it later.)) Powers: ((Same as above.)) Age: ((Adults only, and thats in your races years too, so if you have to be 200 to be considered an adult than thats what you will have to be before the headmaster would even consider letting you teach.)) Height: Weight: Others control: ((This is a very important section and you might want to think about it and its especially important for teachers to consider this. Now to help speed things up a bit I will be allowing players to control other peoples characters in their post HOWEVER this section is where you decide whether or not you will allow that. If you don't want anyone else portraying your character just put No. If you don't care Yes. If you want them to ask your permission first or whatever put that too.)) Classes: ((What classes you teach, either choose one or more from the list below, no more than three, or come up with your own class. Be sure to explain it in the history section of your character though.)) Appearance: ((Once again picture, description whatever.)) History: ((Here is where you explain your race, powers, how you found the school, how you became a teacher, why you are teaching the classes you are heading up etc. It doesn't have to be a nine page essay just summarize.)) The STAFF! (These are the characters I will be running. I know i've got three instead of one get over it I need a basic staff.) Name: Bozel. Race: Human maybe? Powers: Magick and lots of it. Age: Who knows. Height: 6'0. Weight: 140lbs. Others control: Yes but only for the most simple of action and replies. Classes: Black magick, combo magick. Appearance: Always in his black robes with a purple lining. If he has hair no one knows what it looks like, he never takes down his hood though a few people with incredible nerves got close enough to notice his eyes are green. His skin is definately very pale and he robes are not that full so he can't be very muscular. History: Bozel is one the schools founders and has been the headmaster since it was built nearly 50 years ago, the fact that he hasn't aged a day in all that time does occasionally cause debate, but no one really has the guts to try and force it out of him. Did I mention he is the unquestioned lord of magick? Thats why he is the headmaster, he has incredible mastery over all magick but offensive spells are his favorite. He isn't just in charge, he teaches a few classes too. He is the strictest teacher in the school with no patience for lackluster students or arrogant punks. Students are smart enough to know to keep their mouth shut around Bozel. Name: Vivian. Race: Ummmm, Chimera? Golem maybe? Test tube baby? Powers: Enhanced strength, speed, venomous fangs, retractable claws, can fly, spit spider like trap webbing. Age: 51 Height: 6'2. Weight: 162lbs. Others control: Absolutely not. Classes: Survival. Appearance: Blue skin, green hair, red eyes, a pair of skeletal wings that let her fly for some reason, very sharp claws and large fangs. What better teacher for a school like Torneko. History: Torneko's resident....thing. She has been at Torneko since it was built. Vivian was created by Bozel and Cage's father as a kind of guardian. A task she handle's well, but she has also begun teaching survival class. Its a foolish student who tries to break into an area their not supposed to be in, especially since Vivian has been known to drink of the blood of rule breaking miscreants. Name: Cage. Race: Human Powers: Supreme Genius, what more does one need? Age: 27 Height: 5'8. Weight: 147lbs. Others control: Yes but only for the most simple of action and replies. Classes: Science, Engineering, Weapons-Advanced. Appearance: Long green hair that goes past his shoulders. Purple eyes and of course he is one scrawny scientist. He is always wearing his black and red lab coat. History: A brilliant scientist and engineer, his father designed and built Torneko High before he left on his own business. Cage stayed behind learning here by himself and now teaches a couple of classes. He is certainly able to handle it, most of the high tech improvements in Torneko high are his inventions. The students tend to agree he has something of a personality quirk, some say he is a little strange, though most say he's completely insane. He plays the mad scientist to the hilt with wild inventions that should never have even been dreamed up much less built. On the plus side he is a very relaxed teacher and most of the students do seem to like him. AVAILABLE CLASSES: Martial Arts: Not going to get very far in adventuring if you can't defend yourself. This is the basic way to do it. All kinds of martial arts are taught here whether the basics from earth or some weirder stuff from other planets. Teacher needed. Weapons-Simple: Hand to hand combat can be handled with your fist or with whatever else you can get. Students learn how to use the basics, everything from brass knuckles to katanas. This class is now head up by Charlie. Swimming: Though it seems out of place in the face of the other classes, with the Lost spring around, and everyones annoying tendency to drown in them, this class has become mandatory. Teacher needed. Survival: There is alot of walking, hiking, climbing and running for your life while adventuring and this class is designed to show you how and to keep you in shape. Without this one you'll be huffing and puffing on the next school trip. This class mainly consist of the students being dropped in the center of nowhere all by themselves with Vivian. If they get back to the school before the symester ends then they pass. Otherwise they are declared legally dead and the staff divides up their stuff. Science: Where would we be without Science. Chemistry, biology, physics and the such are taught here by resident mad scientist Cage. Engineering: Toaster always breaking, tired of borrowing your friends automatic hair comber or just simply annoyed by your rich cousin's latest letter talking about how his new 100 foot mechanical robot that daddy bought him can fire both missiles AND lasers. Take a few courses under Cage's guidance and these problems are no more. White Magick: Protection, healing and encouragement are all in this one. Though Bozel knows white magick he refuses to teach it. This class now headed up by Valen. Shaman Magick: Witches boiling herbs in pots is what this class is about. The concepts of nature and karma are taught here. Purely potions made by combining the right ingrediants this is called magick mainly because of its spiritual nature and the fact that the potions can do some pretty impressive things. This class now headed up by Valen. Black Magick: Ohhhh yeah, nothing better when a dragon is bugging you than to just blast it with a 40 foot wide fireball. Black magick is purely destructive and Bozel knows every last secret about it. Street Fighting: Yes there is a big difference between martial arts and street fighting. The main being street fighting doesn't have rules or honor. You just kick the crap out of eachother until someone stops moving. If you can't take getting hurt, and spending alot of time in the medical wing of the school, stay away from this class. Class now headed up by Charlie. Weapons-Advanced: When a knife just isn't enough, its time to bring out a rifle, or a plasma cannon whatever works. With Cage heading this one up you can imagine the firing range can get a little dangerous. Especialy since students are encouraged to build and try their own weapons. Combo Magick: Did you know combining a fireball with a shield spell makes a fire shield? Or a redweed potion with a poison breath spell makes acidic ice? Bozel will show students how to combine certain spells to make new incredible ones. Lost Magick: Summoning spells and magick that alters time itself are a lost art. Bozel knows these spells but isn't too big on taking the time to teach them since they are much more difficult than usual spells. Luckily new staff member Karina came along and voluntered and now heads this one up. Cooking: With access to an infinite number of worlds there is a constant inflex of unusual vegetables and meat. The problem is unquestioned lords of magick, super genius scientist and vampiric test tube guardians don't cook very well. So in an attempt to keep an edible food supply this class was put together. Headed up by sole cook Junko it teaches the joys of Cooking the really exotic stuff, ever seen an oglop?. However some types of food are a bit more difficult to get. Obtaining Dragon or Demon meat isn't an enjoyable experience or very healthy either. Only on very dangerous school sponsored trips can students find the ingrediants and since Junko refuses to go into the Lost Pool, these trips usually end up without a teacher leaving just the students and a list of foods they must find in a certain amount of time. Or else Junko will stop cooking for them altogether. Thats it for now of course as I said new classes are always opening up. Post all your characters and pm me with any other questions. Before we actually begin I will post the basic layout and the school rules. I would like to also point out that I will not be accepting any actual anime characters. You have to make up your own.

Deedlit Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 [color=009966]Wow....This sounds awesome!! Like a mixture of Harry Potter and anime or something! ^^ [b]Name:[/b] (When you say "real name," do you mean our chara's real name, or our real name? I'll go ahead and post my chara's name.) Samantha Elsyan Airserke, but she goes by Elsyan instead of Samantha. [b]Race:[/b] High Elf [b]Powers: [/b]Spirit of Light, Healing's Breath, Shield, Earth's Gift, Flaming Arrows [b]Age:[/b] 14 in human years [b]Height:[/b] 5'4" [b]Weight: [/b]102 lbs [b]Others control:[/b] Yes. I don't mind if others control my character, just as long as they don't portray her wrong. [b]Appearance:[/b] Elsyan has long red hair that goes down past her waist. She has emerald-green eyes, wears a green blouse with cacki (sp?) pants. [b]History:[/b] I think everyone knows what Elves are, but I'll write it here anyway. A High Elf is just a race of Elven, and they are sometimes referred to as Light Elves. Her powers mainly consist of nature, light magic, ect. Since her parents are also Elvish, they don't have any currency that the humans use, and since they live in deserted areas away from the humans, it seemed that attending Torneko High was the only school Elsyan could attend. I hope that's good enough. ^_^ Let me know if I need to change anything. -EDIT- Sorry, I forgot to put what classes I'm in. :bluesweat Martial Arts Weapons-Simple Swimming White Magick[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braidless Baka Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Hmm sounding interesting ^_^ --- Name: Flight Chessco (Nickname: Fli - pronounced "fly" not "flea") Race: Human ^_^ Powers: A small degree of elemental control Age: 14 Height: 5 foot Weight: 7 stone Position: Student Others control: Yes for normal conversation - if it's an RP changing event use your own judgement - if in doubt PM me. Appearance: Short, blonde hair; innocent, blue eyes. Kinda puny and weedy really. The kind of kid that would get picked on first out of a crowd. Like he couldn't kick his way out of a wet paper bag. :( History: Flight isn't a particularly mysterious chaeacter, coming off a street-life in China, having been pushed out of a "gang" affair and simply seeking shelter. He finds Torneko and fits in comfortably, although is wary of anyone and everything. He's very trusting, but you firstly have to earn that trust. A quality that could be seen as niave. Since he's come straight out of a street-type lifestyle, he can be aggresive, despite his appearence, but not without cause. Classes: 1) Swimming 2) Survival 3) Street-fighting 4) Combo Magick --- Hope that's all I needed! ^_^ I'm looking forward to this! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valen Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Name: Valen Cernunnos Race: Mage Powers: Banishing, Circle Protection, Healing Wind just to name a few. Age: 1400 Height: 5'8" Weight: 110 Others control: Yes, but if you portray Valen the wrong way... Classes: White Magick, Shaman Magick Appearance: 5'8", long white hair, black cloak, carries a pouch on his belt and his Isis Katana on his back. History: Valen became a mage at birth. Later on in his life, around age ten or so he came across a dieing sorcerer and had the power bestowed upon him by that sorcerer. He had always been a fan of magick. He just recently heard about a hidden school and decided to go looking for it, just for fun. When he finally found it, he heard they were looking for a teacher in the White and Shaman Magick areas, so he decided to apply. Sure enough, he got the job and is now teaching younger students about the ins and outs of Shaman and White Magick. This should be pretty fun...

Turkey Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Why, this is pretty interesting! By the way, you guys should put whether(sp?) your character is a teacher or a student... Name: Charlie Fortune (Nickname: Evilman) Job: Teacher Race: 90% Percent Human, 10% Elf Powers: 1.Can magically charge a weapon to give it special attributes. 2.Eagle vision. 3.Can cook some delicious Calzonnes. :D Age: 25 human years (That would make him 19 if he were human) Height: 6 feet and 1 inch Weight: 187 lbs Others control: As long as they don't go too far...OK Classes: Weapons-Simple Street Fighting *Survival Assistant- Using a "special" satellite, he checks the Survival teams' progress, and sends them some information from time to time.) Appearance: See attachment History: Until 3 years ago, Charlie was a model student in Torneko High School. During his Senior year, a teacher died (darn green potions), and he voluntered to give the classes until a replacement was found. Bozel was so impressed by his work, and the way he gives classes, that he was hired the next year. Given that he's pretty young, he tends to socialize with lots of people outside class. He's also got a reputation among students of being biased towards some more than others. [EDIT] Okay, I took out Weapons-Advanced from my list, and added Survival Assistant. Jester, tell me if you're okay with my idea (read Class with *).[/EDIT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesterSpirit Posted January 12, 2003 Author Share Posted January 12, 2003 That was fast, wasn't expecting to get teachers so quickly but that works. Everything looks good so far. And just put your characters name Deedlit. Also my character Cage is already teaching Weapons-Advanced Joe. I've done some editing to show the classes that now have teachers.

But after their tragic deaths she left and somehow... after a time, wound up completly stuck outside of the realm/world she called home. She found this strange new?... hidden... school... She asked if they needed her skills, apparently they kinda did. So she was hired and did some of the classes as a supply for awhile. She was finally was asked if she wanted to teach Lost Magick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JesterSpirit Posted January 16, 2003 Author Share Posted January 16, 2003 Yeah you can make your own classes but black magick(or minus the K it doesn't matter both the same) is "attack magick" and Bozel already leads that course so you gotta choose a different class.

Valen Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Yes, but then what if she comes in contact with a zombie creature? Black Magick won't work against it. White Magick would, thus 'Attack Magick' is really a combonation of both, so I don't really see why she would have to change it. Healing(white) + Ice(black) = Healing Snow, thus making a combonation once again for the side of good this time. But meh, 'tis your rpg... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/B][/QUOTE] The fun part of an rp like this is trying to integrate everything so don't worry about debating something with me its gotta be worked out eventually. Fire I should point out is a staple of black magick and would be quit effective against any rotting corpse. Though white magick can occasionally be used offensively it is basically still helpful in its nature. Which is why it has its own class. All the basic classes teach you how to handle their respective spells and use them in lots of different ways just as all students in white magick classes already know that their spells are effective against undead. So having a class that teaches you to simply use magick offensively is just redundant. In the end not a bad idea just one thats already being used. How about teaching the Lost Magick class Star? I don't have it listed yet since I didn't wanna bog down Bozel. Its basically summoning and spells that can alter time to some degree (things like haste and slow and stop, see just about rpg for info on those spells). Assistant to Vivian? Well if you really wanna Joe it works for me its your characters body :) Looks ok Sith but drop one class your only allowed four to start with. I think I have enough players now to kick start things though there are always transfers going so anyone else who wants to join up can still do so. I'll get out the school layout and any other school rules late Friday afternoon and probably open the thread in the adventure arena afterwards. So be sure to check this thread out for last minute things before posting in the adventure area. If not tomorrow it will definately be done Saturday.

JesterSpirit Posted January 18, 2003 Author Share Posted January 18, 2003 A little late but it looks like I'll start this tonight. Don't worry about not being able to post immediately. I'm not the type to expect daily posting, though if you can great if not do atleast 2-3 a week. The last of the info and my last second update is below. School Layout: The campus is actually spread out over a mile or so of land making a sort of square. Its situated on a deep valley between a gigantic mountain and a very ancient forest. Their are no roads, paths or streets. The nearest city is Chi-Ang and its a simple hike over the near 20,000 ft high mountain or a little 100 mile walk through the forest and around the mountain. So an city contact is usually little and brief. None of the classes are held in any single place, the nature of classes prohibits this so they are instead held in several different buildings. The Nexus is a circular open area located on the eastern edge of the campus. No walls or seats or anything that would make one think its a classroom. The only way to even notice its there is the circular imprint in the ground around it. The circle is about 200 feet wide and the entire "classroom" is sealed in an anti-magick dome-like field so any spells cast inside, and any summoned beasties, will not go outside and damage anything else. All the magick classes are taught inside the Nexus. On the southern edge is the Triangle which is a large area covering over 500 square feet. In the center is a tall multi-floored glass building which is the medical wing of the school. Inside are the most well built and brillant mechanical bots that can handle any kind of injuries. If your not too big on giving yourself up to a scalpel wielding machine, there are always a few white mages around as well. Both are included since there are some things only magick can handle and some things only modern medicine can fix up. There are still no flawless instant cures though and serious injuries will still take time to recover from. On each side of the medical wing are three fields. One is simply an empty grass field. Another is full of high tech gadgets from gravity generators to holograms to fighting androids. The final field is the shooting range and is much longer than the other two and includes an odd mix of low and high tech equipment. Whether its simple archery targets or glowing spheres of light that move and dodge the field has it all. The weapons-simple, weapons-advanced, street fighting and martial arts classes are all taught in these three fields, and since these fields have the highest number of injures the medical wing was built in the middle. All the way on the other side of the campus on the western edge is the Bay. A partially underground facility much like a modern laboratory. Science and Engineering are taught here and Cage actually lives here as well. Its loaded down with all sorts of technology and of course vehicles. Giant tanks, jets, underground transports and some really weird crap Cage put together in his less medicated days. I should point out students are prohibited from using any kind of vehicles and even teachers have to have Cage or Bozels permission. The northern side is the main dormotory and recreation area. Students and some teachers live in the main building which is much like a huge apartment complex spanning 20 floors with six rooms on each floor. The 20th floor is one gigantic room and Bozels personal sweet. Students are allowed their pick of any room on any of the other floors since there is always plenty of room teachers however get first pick. Each room is a single about 15X15 feet with only very basic furnishings, bed, couch, mini-frig. Any excess things, TV's, radios and the such can be picked up from Cage if the student wishes. The entire building is held at a perfect 69 degrees and flawlessly maintained by dozens of repair and cleaning bots. It sporst its own psychotically fast elevator(beefed up by Cage of course) and simple stairs for whenever the elevator accidently flies through the ceiling or something. There are two large side rooms on the first floor one of which houses a two hundred foot long indoor swimming pool. Swimming classes are occasionally held here though the area is always open to the general public as well. The other room houses the Dragon Cuisine Cafe. The only restauraunt and source for food in the entire campus. It also houses the sole functional kitchen which is open for the public use. The kitchen is still a basic kitchen since Junko knew Cage's reputation and wouldn't let him "upgrade" it. If you were wondering, Junko is the owner and head chef of the Cafe and also teaches the new cooking class. Name: Junko. Race: Tygan-ouse Powers: Super Agility and reflexes. Age: She won't tell. Height: 5'6. Weight: 142lbs. Others control: NPC character, anyone can use her but keep it short and simple. Classes: Cooking Appearance: Looks like a slender human female, except for the orange mouse tail. She has brown eyes and orange and brown hair that goes past her waist. White top and simple jeans with a golden Tiara always on her head. She also has a golden tail ring. History: Torneko was designed as the perfect training academy for adventurers, but someone forgot we all need to eat. Regular cooks from the city refused to cook anything since we wouldn't tell them were we got the meat. So in desperation (and starvation) Bozel made a deal with a planet on another dimensional plane. He just wanted a cook, so their Queen came over to do it. She created the Dragon Cuisine Cafe, located on Torneko's recreation grounds, its a popular hang out since its the only place for food for around 100 or so miles. Junko is an excellent cook and has a sunny disposition. Please note however not to step on her tail or touch it since that is considered Sexual assault. She has a big problem getting her tail wet and thus doesn't lead or join any trips. In the perfect center of the campus is a small black dome that houses the Lost Pool. Its high tech security out classes most nuclear missile silos and the area is completely off limits to everyone except Bozel and Vivian. Any excess odds and ends I haven't addressed above you can feel free to fill in the gaps so to speak. The schools decor is an odd mix of ancient civilations, castles and the such, with occasional high tech enhancements. Basic School rules and codes: The school has no uniform preferring a come as you are concept when it comes to clothes. Fights happen and oddly enough teachers tend to get into more melees than the students, but you had better take it to the Nexus or the Triangle. There is no actual rule about respecting teachers but the campus doesn't recognize any governments laws so don't be surpised if one knocks the crap out of you for mouthing off. Everything else is pretty much free except that there is no killing, well not on purpose anyway. Other Students: There are of course many other students among the campus and the players can feel free to come up with their own npc's as they see fit. And all thats about it. I'll be starting the opening post tonight at which point just post whenever you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalon Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 is it too late? Name: Avalon Miroki {Nickname-Ava} Race: Human Powers: wind, but no elemental control with it Age: 15 Height: 5'7 Weight: 125lbs Others control: Yes, but with my permission... Appearance: Ava has long black hair with dark red highlights, black skirt, dark blue halter top, wears a black leather jacket, black fingerless gloves, black go-go boots, a silver sapphire pendent around her neck, black spiked braclets around both arms, wears black red lipstick with black eyeshadow...that's all. History: Raised in a dsyfunctional family, Ava often got little or no attention at home--but instead, she saw her parents fight all the time. To keep herself occupied, she worked with her father, who was an electrical engineer--and she learned how to built and repair many things, including her laptop which she carried around. When she was 13, her parents died in a car accident, leaving Ava with her sickly grandmother. Ava grew up quickly, having to take care of herself and her grandmother--who died a year later, which left Ava sad and she was quite cold to people around her. Ava's aunt, who lived in Hong Kong, took her in and decided to enroll her in Torneko--which seemed to be a much more decent place than the schools in her city. Classes: 1. Swimming 2. Weapons-advanced 3. Street fighting 4. Combo magic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
