Hades was pretty much my favorite for his zany attitude. He's going to kill you but you might die of laughter too.

I think I'd have to say Axel, Larxene, Demyx and Xigbar. They seemed the most crazy fun.

I agree because his fighting style seemed the same and instinctive. The only difference really was a lack of a Keyblade, which once he acquired both Keyblades, even without sufficient memory, his power was boosted.

Yeah, I agree with Axel's but I voted Xigbar's since he really did seem upset and it wasn't just about himself. He wanted to know what was going on with Roxas. Also, Xigbar just seemed odd to me and unexplained.

I also thought that Zexion's death there was pretty miserable but Repliku's was the saddest of all to me since he wasn't really given a chance to live at all and had such little joy and the only two who had any feelings regarding him at all were the people he had to fight all the time. In the end, I didn't feel too bad for some of the Org's deaths but Xigbar's, Zexion's, Larxene's, Xemnas's, Axel's, and Roxas's (though not so much of a death) and Demyx's were probably the ones that got to me most. I would have cared more for Saix's too had he actually not just been so selfish, but the line was one that stood out too.

It seemed even with his memories, Roxas was just a berserker. Of course, that is a style of fighting too, but as said, some opponents can get around it if strong enough and patient enough just as Riku especially, but Sora as well did. Both the fights with Riku and Sora, Roxas had his memories and still his fighting style was the same.

Axel is weaker so yeah, he'd probably lose unless he really had something up his sleeve. Being in martial arts though, I have had to fight 'berserker' style people and really it is just a matter of strategy and getting them because they haven't got the best defense when they are all offense like that. I do agree Axel would most likely lose to Roxas, but just think also that he's smarter than people are giving him credit and if he could fight 3 times and leave people thinking he was dead, he knew when to fight and take off at least. He also used his abilities to hinder characters combating him and to confuse. It may not work on someone like Roxas so easily but other opponents sure. When I say I think Axel is a better 'fighter', it doesn't really mean I think he's more powerful or would win Roxas necessarily. It means he just seems to use what he has, though limited, in more productive ways in the fight.

I do hear the points being made and though I do think Roxas is very formidable, every fight he's in he declares he's winning and is a berserk in combat. He really doesn't seem to think but go for raw power and just pulverizing things. I see him as being the 2nd most powerful out of the Org, but really don't think he'd stand up to some of the better combatants of the Org itself because of the way he fights. Having said that, I don't see Axel as having much of a chance versus Roxas in an all and all out fight unless he really does outsmart Roxas and make him tire out. Axel does like to 'spice' up a fight and have fun with it but I do think if he -had to- be serious, he would be. He is considerably weaker than Roxas. Roxas, after all, wields Light and he uses it plenty. So yes, I do agree Roxas would have a much higher chance to defeat Axel.

However, the berserk fighting style he uses can be countered. Riku knocked him out even before he decided to change to Ansem and Riku also the first fight chose to retreat and rethink his strategy the first fight because his obvious goal wasn't to harm Roxas, as recovery time would slow Sora's own recovery time and ruin the plan. Even though Roxas was yelling in the second fight he was winning Riku, he missed Riku's whole strategy and Riku used Ansem in the end because his goal was to take out Roxas without harming him immensely. Roxas's strategy is to mess people up and that's about it. It's also why Sora could beat Roxas in KH2:FM and the 'victory' of Sora's in the game after that fight feels almost as though Sora got robbed in a way but the lesson again was that Roxas's berserker strategy can be overcome by using brains as well as brawn. I don't really think Roxas could go against higher level fighter Org members and win if they can avoid his attacks and last him out. It would also be Axel's only hope though he's down notches in power, of course, so his chances of victory are less. I'd still say though that Axel probably knows how to use what he actually has better than Roxas knows how to use his powers to a strategy. So I definitely agree Roxas is the more powerful out of the two, but I just think that Axel has actually more brains in his fighting and all even though brains won't always take a fight like that. Riku clearly had the advantage in fighting Roxas because he has the raw power but also the brains so he wasn't lacking anywhere.

I think in the end what made me decide that suicide and homicide (because at times I really wouldn't have minded putting a person out of my misery no matter how ghastly today it sounds) was not the answer is because it hit me that if I had all that energy to put to things that were not only destroying others but myself, well, why couldn't I put it to better use and be creative instead? It just dawned on me that even though my family and I might not get along for some time if ever, there just were more reasons to live and not be in prison. They were really little to no help, though my dad sometimes did try. He just never understood what it was my mom was doing and I took the brunt of her frustration because I was the oldest and she compared me often to my dad who she was always mad at. I did end up getting work, getting out and I did meet kids younger than me that I spent time with helping them cope with their situations and they still, even though I'm gone to college and all, write to me and I see them now and then. Realizing that a good percentage had a chance of not graduating and also turning to a life of drugs like their parents had made me see I was doing something right. I may have had to fight, join the army to get the chance to go to college etc, but in the end, I feel I am a lot stronger now and though the past can hurt, it can make you stronger too, as Nietzsche liked to say.

I can see you have thought out this stuff a lot and you are doing good for yourself despite the animosity you are getting. That's basically what you need to hold onto. Family is important but if they are against you, that's just how they are going to be. Sometime they may regret their decisions of the past but don't let them deter you from succeeding at life. Part of their problems really is that that they are not happy with their own lives and that is not your fault. They are the ones with the issues and it has been passed onto you wrongfully so if you do need help, get it so you don't turn out like that, but definitely try to make some of these aspirations you have into the real deal. Take it as I had to and others have had to...that the way you were raised is definitely not how you want to raise your own children and that the way your parents are, you don't have to be that way either. They don't know how obviously to manage their anger and frustrations but you can learn and are fighting for it. You have some great goals set for yourself so don't give up and take the easy way out. Let's see how many of these things can become a reality instead because just think if you gave up early what all you and others around you would be missing.

Nuuuuuuu Absol! Objection! Well, have a safe vacation and we'll see you when you get back, dude.

I like to Catch the Rain. >.>

Very tragic. I hope the younger brother, Jamie, will be alright. I hope they do get a lead on why these knife attacks are happening. It's just a shame but he did die defending his brother so all wasn't lost. He should be remembered a hero.

People like to say whatever. Songs have been out for a long time that for kids mean one thing and for adults mean something else. I still remember singing the song "Skyrockets in flight...afternoon delight!" and my mom and dad just looking at me...because of course when I was little I had no idea that it meant that two lovers were having sex in the afternoon together. There are a ton of songs out there that imply heavily a lot of sexual things and whether straight or gay, it doesn't matter. They just do. Most kids won't even pick up on the significance so if parents don't want them listening to it, it's their job to police the songs their kids get. Artists sing songs and people can choose to listen or not. I am not going to blame an artist who is singing about something inappropriate for kids, as deemed by some parents. Instead, if parents don't like it, don't let the kids listen to it and explain why. Most kids would listen to the song and just think it's funny any way.

Sora blinked and then reached down and put Jack into the chair beside him. "He really did go out cold..." Sora decided to try to use Curaga on Jack to at least make his wounds from Roxas, Zack and all fade away. His hand glowed and he healed up Jack, but he was probably still out cold from having drank before an hour was up. Whatever Zack gave him, it really worked too well.

Riku wandered back into the room and sat down by Kairi. He passed her a plastic small bottle of milk. "This was the best I could find. Hope it helps you out. If not maybe I can run to a store real quick." He looked over at Jack who was comatose. "He drank already, huh?"

Sora snickered. "Yep! He just can't be off it, I guess. I wonder how Roxas and Namine are doing."

"There are some mysteries that are better left unknown" Riku said with a smirk because he was sure it was comical but not something they needed to see.

It seems that this isn't as bad as people are seeing. If anything, it seems that Wada wants to get back to actually having more quality games and less to do with these sidequest phone stuff etc. I'm all for it as I enjoy quality rpgs and games like Coded and the FF7 game which have info etc on them, but not everyone can hope to get seems like a big money waste when quality should be more the issue. Maybe there's some hope after all.

In KOTOR time, I don't think it was so stringent that Jedi give up attachments as bad as in EP 1, but maybe Orange, a way to get the lightsaber would be that it was from a fallen comrade your character was helping at one time? Usually about the only way to get a lightsaber in SW is from a fallen Jedi or you make it yourself or some Jedi gives a padawan one.

And thanks, Ghetto. Was wondering if you'd get what direction I was going with the character. I decided since it was KOTOR time, why not have an old 'actual' Sith. It seemed fun to try since Golden Age of the Sith was one of my favorite series. Sith Alchemy = fun. ~.~

I think Axel did it for a couple reasons. One was to redeem himself and make things right. He realized that his scheme to make Sora into a Heartless to get Roxas back was wrong and Sora earned his respect. Even though he was almost probably sure Kairi could change him back to normal, it was a scheme he realized was wrong because Roxas was where he 'should' be. I also think that Axel realized he could also go to where he should be too at that point and wanted his own Heart back and was tired of being a Nobody. Xemnas made a comment in KH2:FM that Axel was always seeking his Heart, so it could be that Axel actually found a link to it at that point.

The sacrifice was one of the most moving scenes in KH2, and yeah, I believe he did it to redeem himself but also to get Sora to Kairi faster and all because it would have taken them sometime to get through all that there. He also had to open the way for Sora to go through. I'm not sure it was absolutely necessary but maybe to Axel it was necessary to move Sora, apologize to him and Kairi there and to go on to where he felt he truly belonged at that point.

Axel is very much a thinker. He totally outsmarted most of the Org at the Castle Oblivion. He's quick and can think up things on the spot. This isn't to say Zexion isn't, but it's also clear Zexion wasn't really 'a fighter' by choice. Axel clearly did not want to fight Saix and wanted to do his own thing. Also, Roxas isn't a very strategic fighter at all. He just goes for the attack. The only reason Riku 'lost' the first time is clear that he was trying to take Roxas alive and uninjured while Roxas was being a maniac. Riku totally kicked his can the second fight and still kept his cool before he changed to Ansem.

As I said, I think Roxas is stronger, no doubt. But I think Axel has more brains and knows how to use what he has better than Roxas knows how to use what he has. Roxas also isn't a better fighter than Sora as it's clear that Sora in KH2:FM has to obviously -beat- hiim to go on and does so. Roxas was tough but not that tough to be considered better than Sora or Riku.

This isn't to say that I don't think Roxas can't beat Axel. However, Axel threw the fights both times he fought Roxas. The first time was to just mess around. The second time he was told to kill Roxas but Axel of course refused to. He had to make it look good though, just as he had to lose to Sora and make it look like he 'died' there in CoM. So really, they've actually never had an all out battle where one was going to live and the other die. I do believe Roxas is the stronger opponent and can take Axel, but I also think if Axel planned for it, he would know how to get Roxas because of the way Roxas fights and if Riku figured it out, I think Axel could too.

Ok...sometimes I wonder why -some- people go out of their way to make people fear through religion and also make people feel guilty like that. It's just awful. I hope no Christians really take that crap seriously. It's total brainwashing.

Alright, I'll sign up since it's in a time I am familiar with and an interesting one at that. It'll be an eccentric homebrew character though.

Yes, yes, who is the newb? Now that this is over. I demand answers and pizza.

ill out the whole damn thing. Mandalorian isn't a species either, it's a group of warior clans. And use good grammar. No "txt tlk".

Character Name: Ardin Nor
Species: Sith Lord
Gender: Male
Age: ? pretty old
Class: Sith Lord
History: Ardin Nor is of the species of Ancient Sith Lords who were Massassi that were mated with the Dark Jedi that separated 25k years before a New Hope. The species of Massassi and Sith were considered to be quite nearly wiped out by what Naga Sadow had done in the war versus the Jedi in the times of the Golden Age of the Sith. However, Ardin Nor, being a younger Lord at the time, left Ziost and returned to Korriban. It was here he came to be in contact with spirits of the ancient Dark Lords and listened to their warnings. He undertook a ritual of deep sleep learning more ways of becoming in tune with his powers and also his history and would awaken in this new time on the setting of Korriban.
Description: He has long cinnamon brown hair that is in braids and a crown to distinguish his position as a Sith Lord of old. His skin is red and his eyes yellow and he has some black tattoo marks on his forehead that almost look like claw marks. His stature is muscular and he is a tall man of 6'4 and though his hands have talons for fingernails and his skin is ruddy, and eyes are yellow, otherwise he looks close to a distinguished human. His clothing is relatively scant, wearing a sort of Egyptian skirt, leather thick bands over a chest plate which hold a sword to his back, and he walks with a staff that with a twist of the center can reveal a nasty spear. He also dons sandals for his clawed feet. Adornments such as gold bracers and shin guards are also worn with little Sith emblems engraved in them.
Equipment: He wears ancient times Sith Armor which is a chest plate, arm bracers, leg bracers and otherwise looks somewhat Egyptian in appearance, a crimson cloak and has a Sith jagged sword and also a spear that is very jagged in the design of ancient Sith weaponry which both at the metal parts can withstand contact with a lightsaber as depicted in the books.
Force Powers: Telekinesis, Sith Alchemy, Absorb/Dissipate Energy (in order to take blasts from blasters and such), "Jedi Mind Trick".
Demo Post:
The universe was a new place. He looked out through the front of the small ship he had acquired. It was nothing more than a light stock freighter that had taken some damage...mostly because of him, but he was nonetheless hoping it would take him to a planet close by. Had that impetuous youth studying the 'dark ways' not fired at Ardin Nor when he had approached, none of this would have happened. Maybe he would have taught the young dark Jedi...maybe not. He was not sure what he was interested in yet, but one thing was for sure. He had years to catch up on and acclimate with the new universe in a time when his people were pretty well written out of history. He had found no people of his alive. Only these humans who had come to Korriban seeking knowledge that wasn't rightfully theirs.

A space port was coming into view. These new ships were definitely so much more efficient than in his time. They had hyperdrive. It made clearing out of the old system so much easier. As he neared the space station the comm light lit up. "Identify yourself" he heard a young male voice say.

He pushed a few random buttons but nothing seemed to be the Comm to speak back with. "Oh bother" he grumbled. After a bit, the voice came back. "Please identify yourself. If you cannot, report to Bay 32 and we will send a team to your area."

Ardin Nor shrugged. He could fly the ship by the manual as he had been learning for a few weeks and now was leafing through the pages to find where the darn comms were to send out a communication. He figured this ship was on its last leg any way so he just tossed the book back and flew the ship to the bay. Fortunately for him, the ship was collected in a tractor beam as he drew closer and it brought the vessel in to land. Great doors sealed behind the ship and he disembarked the vessel as a group of soldiers ran up. "Are your comms down? Are you alright?" a concerned young man asked.

Ardin Nor smirked. "I am fine. I think more is out on this ship than just comms." As he said that, a few plates of the ship fell to the ground making a metal symphony of booms. "Now, where can I get some food?" He strolled off as a couple guards pointed towards a tavern. They were now not sure how he had gotten there alive and he wasn't more in a panic. Another plate fell off and they winced. This was going to be a long day.
