Announcing the Tournament of Desires!
OOC: If you wish for a more concise version of this, please read the next post. This first part is just a little fun IC info dump.

*In the middle of a vast desert, a large man in tan and brown robes stands to greet you.*

Welcome everyone! Please, take your seats. Yes, I know there're no seats in the desert. And, before you ask, there aren't any rivers in the desert either.
Now, my announcement is... ta-da!

*Before their eyes, a large stone colosseum rises out of the sand behind them.*

A tournament! Aptly titled: The Tournament of Desires!
Now, what are the rules for this tournament, you may ask. Well, to sum them up briefly...
This tournament will be done in a two versus two manner, meaning each person shall receive a partner in which they shall enjoy their battles with! Each battle shall be conducted within this arena on a variety of stages, ranging from the desert around us, to a raging river!
Of course, I wouldn't bring this up without mentioning our amazing prize! I, the powerful sorcerer that I am, have the ability to grant the winners 3 wishes to split between themselves! Isn't that simply fantastic!
Now, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Alright, so here's the low-down.
This is a 2 man team tournament. Each round will be 2 on 2, and will follow a standard bracket.
You do not get to choose your partner. When the bracket is created, everyone shall get their teammate for the tournament. This is an attempt to try and get people to RP cooperatively with others who they otherwise wouldn't or won't, due to unfamiliarity. I do highly recommend speaking with your teammate over Discord or PMs to discuss things like fusion spells or tactics, which I legitimately hope to see.
If you have any questions, comments, or critizisms, please contact me on PMs (I'll try and keep it open from 9am PST to 10pm PST) or Discord (My account being Emerson#1319).
I do have a Discord for this tournament, so if you wish to join that, click this link. https://discord.gg/ZwfyXFp
I'll be back tomorrow to answer any questions!
*Gamma walks in with a smile and grins at Jin*
Oh dear, another tournament it seems. Well, I think I'll ask the question on everyone's mind.
To what extent can these wishes be? After all, I'm sure you have some sort of restraints on them
*Jin bows as Gamma approaches him.*

If it's within my power, I shall indeed grant it.
Things outside my power are erasing deities, pure creation, and alteration of one's soul. Oh, and otherwise affecting other's plots without the creator's consent.

*He winks.*

Those are the things I cannot do. My apologies if that conflicts with your reasoning for entering.
*Lux appears in a flash of light wearing a robe to obscure his face.*

I embaresed myself last time, but I'm not the same as I was before.
*Jin's face sours a bit as he sees Lux, before returning to his regular joyful expression.*

Excellent! I do hope all my combatants are as confident as you are!

OOC: Something I forgot to mention. I technically don't disallow entrances of multiple accounts per 1 user, just please don't go overboard. Fighting with yourself, or god forbid fighting AGAINST yourself is tough to deal with.
*Gamma grins as he signs up*

Oh don't worry, I'd have likely joined even if there was no reward. I... I'm simply waiting anyways. Nothing better to do with my time.
Ah, if only all people were like that... It'd make this a much easier task.
Well, I'm afraid I must bid you adieu. Places to be, and all that.
Squadala, I am off!

*Jin snaps his fingers, and a carpet appears beneath him. It slowly rises, before flying off into the distance.*

OOC: I'm out for the night, please feel free to continue signing up. I'll be back in like 9-10 hours.
*Kalib approaches with a smile.*

Hehe! Let's see if I can pass round two this time!

*He hastily puts down his name and walks off.*
Alright then, maybe this time I'll get to the end.

*Kazuya writes his name casually, and after this, he walks away to...I dunno.*
*Teddie walks up and takes a deep breath.*
I can't believe i'm doing this...
*He writes his name down with slightly shaky hands, afterwards, he walks off.*
*N walks out into the desert, clutching his collar to his mouth, before finally reaching the colosseum.*

So, this is the place...

*He writes down his name, before entering the colosseum to rest.*
*A Cait Sith jots down his name before running off* Maybe this'll actually work out... But what to wish for...
*Walks in and signs up for the tournament*.

This should be fun.

*Walks off with a smile on his face*.
*Akechi saw some of the advertisement for this tournament, decides to check it out and signs in*
2 on 2 right? I shall wish good luck to my opponents.
May win the best one of us
*he walks away with a calm smile on his face*
*A boy who looks too much like a girl runs in with an empty bottle of water, looking around. He then signs up for the tourney because...fun. After that, he runs back out, dropping a cigar out of his purse.*
*He steps out from a black door next to the paper*

Hmm a fighting tournament eh? Maybe it'll actually finish this time!

*He pauses before signing his name*

but 3 wishes huh? Hope this guy is for real and not some jackass genie that'll screw people.

*Roxas shrugs and signs in spite of his reservations then walks off into the dark portal as it flickers out of existence*
*he rifts into the desert, taken aback by his surroundings*
I-I don't recall wanting to go here... hmm.
*he surveys his surroundings before noticing the colosseum*
A fight... and for wishes? This would help further my goals immensely!
*he jots his name down before rifting back to safety*
*I approach the arena* Wishes huh?
*rose petals appear as a scythe Weilding teenager arrives to the tournament* Count me in!
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
A tournament? This is the perfect chance to show everyone in the Nexus the true might of their overlord!
*I whistle a tune wielding rebellion and ebony and ivory with a cocky grin* I heard a fights gonna go down
*Alice finds herself amidst the outskirts of the tournament grounds. She'd silently reflect on the information she had gathered before finding the place, heading over to the sign-ups to add her name to the list. She doesn't stick around for pleasantries or anything of the sort as she quickly takes off once she's done what she came to do. Perhaps Alice has taken something of the tourney, the chance at a fulfilled wish, a little too seriously.*
*Aitome walks in and investigates speaking to himself

A: Well now, a tournament with a 2v2 format... what do you think?
T: We could use the experience, proper technique and practice is necessary
K: Always up for a fight! Let's crack some skulls!
A: I suppose that's that, sign me up,
Let's get this party started!
(Bumped)
*Cait's name has been erased for some reason. A Primarina goes over and signs the now-empty spot with a determined look on her face*
OOC: Bumpity bump bump bumpity bump bump look at thready goooo. Bumpityy bump bump, bumpity bump bump over the hills of..... I dunno, I ran out of ideas by there
Ooc: Shoulda' just heelied.
OCC: Appreciate the bumps.
Ooc: No probs...right Gamma?
OOC: *insert something about the futility of bumps and other forms of existence here*
OOC: Just adding this now. We're currently at 16 combatants, and I believe that's a good place to call it quits. Apologies to anyone who wished to join. Perhaps if this turns out well, we can do a 2nd round! I'll quickly post a bracket and teammates, although the matches will not begin until the 23rd or later.
