A flyer has been circulating around the Galactic criminal underworld. On it, it advertizes a challenge held by BuzKil Industries, the largest distributor of blades, saws, and sharp weapons of all types. The challenge: come to BuzKil and navigate a series of rooms specially designed for this occasion. At the end lies a great reward more valuable than anyone can imagine. The flyer also warns that only those who are strong enough to take on a charging Velu panther should sign up.

S3VEN. The number of mercenaries that were insane enough to take this challenge. The number of rooms they’ll have to survive through to claim an impressive reward. The number of ways they could get lacerated within the first five minutes.

S3VEN. It will test your adaptability, wit, and ability to survive against the odds. Pray you don’t disappoint me.

Participating

To join S3VEN, you must do two things. A) Fill out the below character form and post it here. B) In one sentence, tell me how your character would take on a charging Velu panther.

Please keep in mind that you will not be starting out with any equipment or weaponry, but rather you will receive them at the beginning of each chamber. You should quite literally strip your character naked of anything they own. Jumpsuits will be provided.

Picture: (Optional, but preferred)Username:Name:Age:Race:Bio: (Just a small bit of background, no long and intricate back stories please.)Strengths: (Mostly mental, as weapons will be provided. Please don’t have anything to the equivalent of “bullet-proof skin” or “natural shield generator”.)Weaknesses: (Again, mostly mental. Try to keep strengths and weaknesses equal.)

Once you have signed up, you will be added to the list below, along with your character, and assigned a number of 1-7, for easy reference.

He has quite a bit of them, and in weird places.Strengths: His strengths are often keeping a cool head in dangerous situations, meaning he can help others if they are screaming their head off.Weaknesses: Any time he sees a member of his family, he loses complete control of everything in his body, because he caused their deaths. He mourns for them every night when he sleeps.

Picture: 1000 wordsUsername: Darkshadow1223Name: GrendarAge: 21 Human yearsRace: TlyarianBio: Grendar is an average Tylarian. He is arrogent at times.Strengths: If in a battle he seems to ignore any pain that doesn't kill him, Physically strongWeaknesses: Fights any battle, even if he's outnumbered 10000 to 1, Hates Bannannas, Strange inclination to punch everything in the face, Outside of battle he feels pain mutch worse than a normal being

Bio: Flank loves guns. A vaguely short temper won't win him the 'guy of the decade' award, but he generally is nice. He was a well respected Admiral of his races military, until he got into a little mishap, becoming ex-admiral.

Strengths: The Ravis are resilient, so he can take quite a few hits. He is immune to tear gas and mace; he doesn't have eyes. He can rotate his cannon around to look behind him while running the other way. He knows Kung Fu (because I do awesome ) for close combat fighting.

Weaknesses: Flank is a large target. Flank's metal implants conduct electricity, so electric based attacks have a huge effect on Flank. Also, he is very heavy, and cannot swim. Flank has a short temper, so he can't take aggravating situations for long. Since his little mishap on Ellismiron, Flank doesn't cope well around women, especially when they begin to flirt. This causes him to lose his nerve.

Spoiler:

Username: Shardna/PrincessNintendoName: SlurpAge: 17Race: Unknown.Bio: A tiny alien that aspires to be an adventurer, artist, inventer,scientist and zoologist. People tend to laugh at her because she's only the size of an average small potted house plant. Slurp always proves them wrong that it's not about size but pure determination. Slurp sometimes needs her special mech suit to reach for things, long journies or for some bit of protection. Strengths: Mech Suit, her size (it can be hard for everyone to not notice Slurp), Intelligence, strong grip, gadgets and small weponary perferably daggers.Weaknesses: Her size cause she can be squished easily, heavy things or objects, water (can't swim unless she has a floatie) and being litterly zapped.

Username: DRaGOName: Fem’NylaAge: 23Race: NephidBio: Fem’Nyla was once a supermodel and celebrity of the Nephid culture, even starting a “femme-fatale” craze on the Nephid homeworld of Aeeros. However, as often happens with most Nephid celebrities, she lost popularity after only a few years in the spotlight. Having become attached to this attention, she turned to embrace the darker side of her fame, training to be an assassin using the same “femme-fatale” tactics she was loved for. Her targets were often corrupt government or military leaders, so she believed herself to be doing more good than harm. One slip up in a job cost her a few months in prison, but she escaped after seducing the prison warden and stealing his keys. She lay low for a year, only resurfacing now to participate in the BuzKil challenge.Strengths: As with all Nephids, Fem’Nyla has four arms, meaning she can hold multiple weapons and concentrate on them all at once. She also is a skilled martial-artist and surprisingly strong for her size. She has an iron will, knack for escaping, and training with a variety of lethal weapons.Weaknesses: Her years acting as a “femme-fatale assassin” have somewhat dulled her reaction senses, as her escapades have been based on seduction, not quick movement. He also has an odd aversion to flashing lights, odd considering her years spent behind flashing cameras. Startled easily, only skilled with instant-kill weapons, virtually no training with guns, hates cheese. (This ain’t Nerrone’s Rangers, WHAT NOW, DELTA?)

Posting

I have just a few simple guidelines for posting in character.

1. Use third person. I don’t want any “I did this” mixed in with “he did this”.2. I control the facility, so don’t post something like “he walked into the next room which had a giant pit in the middle of it!” I’ll tell you what the rooms are like when you get there.3. Treat moving from one room to another like combat. If you try to go from one room to the other too fast, I’ll do something like make a barricade door close or a giant buzzblade come up from the floor.4. Don’t try and keep yourself completely out of harm. I want at least three limbs missing (total) by the end of the challenge. Hurt yourself as much as possible, and receive a cookie when you’re done!

Rooms

Here I’ll post descriptions of each of the seven rooms you’ll be going through, as they appear. Note that there will be multiple areas of each room, and descriptions will be posted as you reach the rooms.

center]----------| ROOM #1 |----------[/center]

This room is shaped like an octagon. Seven of its sides have doors that can slide up to unleash a wave of enemies. The eighth door is bolted shut similarly to the door that led to this room. The door closest to where the mercenaries began is larger than the rest. The roof is shaped somewhat like a dome, with a glass hemisphere secured to the top.

If faced with a Velu panther, he would probably drop any ranged weapon he had, and fight it in close combat with a melee weapon. If he had no melee weapon, he would use his fists. In either instance, he would punch the panther in the face at least once.

I would prefer you modified your character to the exact, unless you are still editing it. Also, I'm not going to be putting up the picture if you still have equipment on your character. Sorry, but that's just how it works.

When confronted by the charging Velu panther, he would jump over it, using his wings to gain as much of a jump as possible, and attempt to attack it from behind with his claws, or club it with his gun.
