The Championship Cup
Objective: You must defeat the other contestants in martial combat. Only one contestant may reign as the Champion.
Location: Namahage Festival Grounds
Reward: Namahage Festival Champion Title
Event Description:


A loud commanding voice booms out the greeting, leaving an echo of strangely whispered voices in its wake. The voice seems to surround you, leaving behind a nearly physical sensation of things crawling across your skin.  

You stand in a sparsely forested area, thin sickly trees stretching their almost bare limbs up to the darkening sky. The ground is damp, with small pools of water intermingling with the dying grass and shrubbery covering the forest floor. Before you stands a grotesque looking woman, her skin so pale it appears blue in the dim twilight. Long strands of inky black hair fall down her shoulders, ragged bits sweeping across her face with the force of the slight evening breeze. A soft eerie glow radiates from the woman, making it clear that she is otherworldly. With a flourish of her bony hand, the Yokai points a finger out at each of the contestants standing before her. Her long talon like nails seeming to punctuate each sentence as she jabs her finger in the air while speaking.



The Yokai gestures around the area, drawing attention to twenty four evenly spaced floating blue lights that have created a circular perimeter. The lights appear as orbs of fire, hovering one meter off the ground, each four meters from the next on either side.


A wicked laugh ripples through the air as, with a malicious sparkle in her eye, she spreads out her arms and glowing energy travels quickly through the air, from her to her children. As the spokes of blue light pass near you, you feel suddenly empty, and a chilling knowledge fills your mind. Your chakra is gone.


With her task given out, the Yokai sends out a shriek as she spins in place and fades from view.

Event Details: This trial is considered complete when only one contestant remains able to fight. The rules for combat (though listed elsewhere) are as follows;

No Metagaming or Godmodding. If you are caught doing this you will be warned and if it persists you will be disqualified.

Post within 24 hours of your opponent. As this is a timed event we want these threads to go quickly. If you do not post within 24 hours your opponent will be able to auto hit you.

The event (The Championship Cup), will last a total of fourteen [14] days. It will begin on December 2nd and end on (or by, as it may be concluded earlier) December 16th.

You may not bring in any items that are not approved at the time that the Championship Cup starts. Your lists will be considered frozen for the duration of the event.

You must keep track of your chakra at the bottom of each of your posts in spoilers (see the chakra guideline). This is to keep track of your exhaustion level.

All disputes regarding combat will be mediated by the Championship Cup organizer, and all rulings are final.

Have fun!

No contestants will have any access to their chakra pool, meaning that jutsu, KKG etc. are unable to be used. Weapons, and unarmed attacks are the only available means of combating. Furthermore, all stats for contestants are effectively removed for the duration of the event. They may not be boosted by any means, as they are considered non-existent, putting all contestants on an even playing field. The perimeter of blue fire orbs drain life essence when you are in close proximity to them. Mechanically, this causes a drain of 100 chakra per post, as long as you begin or end your post within five [5] meters of one of the orbs. The available area within the perimeter is a [60] sixty meter radius. While your chakra is currently inaccessible, the rules regarding a character's chakra pool reaching 10 or less apply, as per the Chakra Guidelines..

Rank: A

Price: 3000 ryo per Great-Sword
Ability / Function: Requires Bukijutsu (Swordsmanship) / A-3 Strength to wield.
The crushing blows from this weapon threaten the structural integrity of armours, light spears (Yari) and weapons not exclusively made to be used with 2 hands that this sword comes into contact with. With a single blow The Great-Sword is capable of sending cracks down a weapon or light armour of equal rank, damaging it, requiring only a second blow to break it beyond use. (With weapons and armour of a rank lower suffering instant destruction, heavy armour requires an additional blow at all ranks.)

This weapon ‘must’ be used in 2 hands.

The hilt is bound with shark leather for superior grip and the weapon comes to a weighted pommel for bashing. 187cm in total length, the weapon stands at 6’ long bearing the sigil of kirigakure upon its pommel in gold..
History:  Crafted by holy smiths across the ocean for knight masters, these weapons contrary to popular belief have a complex and technical style associated with them. Though a few examples have made their way over to Kiri along with the knowledge of how to produce such weapons they are rare and pricey in the extreme.

To each side of the tip blade, in line with its facing, are two crescent heads which come to their own points, shaped similar to Torii gates, bladed inside and out. The pole of the weapon is black cedar and varnished to be easy on the hands with the seal of kirigakure punched into the wood nearing the head.

Ability/Function:Blind Eye: Due to the design of the pattern that is sewn into the cloak, as the user moves, it induces pseudo-hypnosis effect on those who look upon it, causing the wearer to be unnoticed and/or ignored by their surroundings and entities and be unregarded by threats or dangers to the unaided eye. The wearer is not actually invisible – they still cast a shadow, and still leave footprints behind as they move about, but to the unaided eye [eyes that are not enhanced by a doujutsu to provide a visual perception/clarity boost], the wearer is simply overlooked So long as there is a decent amount of coverage such as tree's or a crowd (Meaning this does not work in open area's like plains or an empty room). Even though the user is ignored, they are by no means undetectable. Anyone with SS rank perception or by using a dojutsu or a sensory (Prior to the chakra ability being activated or above S rank sensory) can see through this ability as well as anyone the wearer allows to see them. Once seen the ability no longer works for the remainder of the thread.
Chakra ability This armor completely hides any trace of the user's presence from S-rank  sensory jutsu and below for 10 chakra a turn.

History: A room within the fourth floor of the manor was sealed behind an S rank seal with intricate levels to it. A seal that up until now Sero could not discover a way around and could not break.
