Tapastic Battle Royale Art Trade Sign-ups

[WakaXO]

Heck ya, this theme is right up my alley!
Name: WakaXO
My comic; Neon Rabbit
Character; Dakota Holt

Info: Her power is teleportation, she relies on strategy to win fights rather than strength or weapons.
[Edit] I forgot to mention, she can also throw objects (anything from a small toy to a car). Also her teleportation is instantaneous.

[efdvorsky]

The date falls too tight for me since it's Halloween and the other activity, and I can't join... ut I'm super thankful for the shout out!!

[aspiderjonny]

It's ok. It just been some terrible timing for me. Best of luck to your trade.

[ryoko]

Sounds fun! ^_^

Name: wnqs
Comic: The cat, the Vine and the Victory
Character: Tarow

Info: left-handed swordswoman, skilled as a mercenary and tough, but still young and learning her family's trade. Would fight to the death for her 'princess'.

[UzukiCheverie]

Sign me up, hoss!

Name: Uzuki Cheverie
Comic: Time Gate: Reaper
Character: Uzuki Kasahara
Info: Melee fighter with aura-reading and aura-manipulating abilities (auras are the magical essence of the soul in the Time Gate universe, much like chakra/mana/etc.) As of right now in the story, she's primarily a close range hand-to-hand fighter; the only weapons she uses are knives. Very little physical defense, can go a little crazy at times if you really push her buttons . . . you really don't want that to happen. She's been a murderer since she was a child. Trust me on this.

[BlackMantaStudios]

Hell yeah, this looks like fun!

Name: Kuroe Lee
Comic: Kurumi's After Hours
Character: Kurumi Aoi

Info: Just an average Japanese high-schooler, green skirt and black tights with standard loafers. Top-notch kendo practitioner, but prefers to stick with strategies that she's used to, so she's kinda weak to more pragmatic fighters.

Disclaimer: I just picked the first ref photo I could in my folder. The artwork above's a gift art I received.

[El_Psy_Congroo]

Can't wait for this one. Really need to practice my fight scenes

Name: ElPsyCongroo
Comic: Knights
Character: Jun Kishi
Info: She's been trained in martial arts since she was little. She wields dual broadswords (think Zuko as the Blue Spirit) but they're also uzis. Because it's badass. (Think RWBY, Final Fantasy, gunswords etc) Check out chapter 2 of my comic to see her in action.

[Greg_Dickson]

It's time for a Death Battttlllleeeee!!! (seriously, I don't know if it should be a death battle, jonny. A KO battle would make more sense. I don't think people want to see their characters decapitated or anything).

Name: Greg Dickson
Comic: Don't Be A Hero
Character: Gemini


Info: Gemini is like a jack-of-all-trades with her clawed ball and chain device, Valhalla. Gemini can attach Valhalla to her opponents to vaporize them into essence, which contains their powers that she can use for herself. She stores Valhalla in the palm of her bionic arm [the ball can shrink and grow, kind of like a pokeball] and she can shoot it at her foes (the claws grip her opponent, it activates on a few second timer, then BAM! End of opponent). She also absorbs the fighting knowledge of her opponents to become proficient in their arts. She doesn't have that many abilities yet in the comic, but she has two so far.

1 - Spear: A chain exits from one side of Valhalla with a glowing green spearhead attached. The chain stiffens into a handle, with the ball on the back end of the chain, and the spear on the front. She can fight regularly with it. She can loosen the slack on the chain and wield it like a bladed whip, and she can even throw it, making it resemble a green arrow of doom.

2- Duoblicate: I guess it's a little bit of a spoiler, but by my next page, I'll be hinting on it anyways. She can clone herself once, giving herself an extra teammate on the battlefield. Two is always better than one!

Gemini also possesses a gauntlet and platform boots that she can magnetize by thought (well, the ribbons in her hair allow her to form a telepathic communication with her own technology), allowing her to grip, walk on metal surfaces with ease, as well as using her gauntlet to pull in metal objects from a distance (sometimes disarming foes), as well as shooting metal objects forward with incredible force, which is how she fires Valhalla at opponents.

Gemini's passive strengths is that she's a cunning strategist, and has excellent acrobatics and stamina. Weaknesses? She's doesn't possess extreme strength or durability like many heroes (well, with these abilities anyway). She's also a little overconfident in herself, which occasionally makes her fumble with mistakes. .

Really, she's more in line with a Megaman/Cardcaptor Sakura-style fighter, selecting her abilities carefully to get at a leg up on her opponents.

[Aspie_Gamer]

Sign me up! This sounds fun.

Ahh but first let me clone one of my characters from my comic Life of an Aspie.

BZZT

There we go! All done! Clone! Susan will be participating. Since the real Susan plays lots of video games, she should be an unarmed fighter primarily relying on her fists and kicks. Referencing Super Smash Bros for a bit, her fighting style should be closest to either Captain Falcon or the Mii Brawler.

DISCLAIMER: Above are three different pieces of fan art I have received of Susan that I feel best represent her image. I did NOT draw any of these. Going back to Super Smash Bros, here are two video links. One for C. Falcon and one for Mii Brawler at their best.

C. Falcon SSB4 Combo Montage

Mii Brawler SSB4 Combo Montage

[aran150]

Holy hell, I love this idea. Lemme sign up with Eve from my comic, I'm on my phone now so I'll add links and images later

[atlas]

Name: Elgenar
Comic: Po's Adventure
Character Name: Po

A "Piphet" who possesses a high level of agility and an even higher level of durability. Never been outside his native environment, but can adapt to others quickly. Top speed of 40 MPH on foot. Solely a hand-to-hand fighter, he does not possess a fighing style but uses his speed and agility to probe for visible signs of weakness. When nearing death, will turn feral, gaining strength and speed several times over, but acting only on instinct.

[aran150]

Hey, just checking in with some reference images. I stuck my neck in earlier. Anyways, here's Eve from Arkian

As for some info that's helpful? She's incredibly tough. Not she-hulk tough, but still strong. She is adept with hand-to-hand as well as melee and ranged. The two latter ones would be with anything shiny and white, futuristic with lots of lazers and glowy bits. There is a very slight chance she could channel the divine power of Triberus, but that's so unlikely, it's borderline non-canonical. Triberus seldom intervenes.

[Delphonse]

I think I will try to give this a shot ^.^ I will use Wittorf since I love using magic and a lot of the people who read my series have been wanting to see him casting spells lol.

The first pic is his current form the second is his more skilled attire.

Wittorf is a mage who fights defensively. Using a conductors rod to summon musical instruments that in turn cast spells. At his strongest he conducts an orchestra of beautiful death.

Wittorf is not trained to endure long battles and pulls back on women. He will do everything in his power to not hurt children but men are fair game. Wittorf is a ladies man and even if he would rather talk a lady up he is not foolish as to let his guard down in combat

My name is Philip Miller and my comic is Requiem for a Grieving Hero

https://tapas.io/series/Requiem-for-a-Grieving-Hero/ep1

[Jrej]

This is such a cool theme so of course I'm in!
My name is Jrej and here's Lev from my comic Shades Of Men.

He's a grumpy hobo living in the streets of Paris. He usually doesn't speak much and avoids social interaction. However when faced with trouble, his inner rage takes over and it ends badly. He is known to take down several men by himself, changing pace suddenly, with raw uncontrolled moves. In the action he shows no fear.

He is loyal and wouldn'd leave a friend behind.
He's a mysterious man that seems to be hiding secrets...

[Greg_Dickson]

Wow...I can see some awesome potential matches here, that can be grouped with like-minded characters, like:

Superhero-type: Gemini, Dakota, J-Man (We'd need another superhero-type to even things out).
Beast-type: Po, Eve (totally an epic David vs. Goliath-type setup in this case)
Sword-Type: Jun, Tarow
Mage/Spell/Force-Type: Wittorf, Uzuki
Schoolgirl-type: Kurumi, Susan
And now we just need a Gritty, Gun-toting Old Man-type to go with Lev

Chances are, this will all be randomized, but it is fun to think about. I think the most fun, interesting kinds of matches are the ones where characters are as similar as possible.

[DeputyRust]

Deffinately gonna join this, I'll bring in my submission later this evening

[aspiderjonny]

Yes. Every event is random, but it's fun to fantasize.

[DeputyRust]

Name: Zac Garmon/Dream Coat Guy
Comic: Freak of Nature
Character: Freak of Nature/Ben

Info: Ben contains a powerful source of blue energy called Exorcism, a power used to ward off evil and heal others, and appears in the form of an ethereal, blue aura that engulfs the user, and can be used as a source of power or ammunition as Ben has discovered. Including his Exorcism, Ben has a high amount of durability, though whether or not this is the exorcism in action or not is unknown, and because he is a cyborg he has inhuman strength and speed. For weapons, Ben has a pair of crimson magnums that he powers with exorcism to fire at his opponents in rounds. However, while Ben has quite a huge amount of potential, his abilities come short currently thanks to his oblivious nature and tendency not to think, leading him to rush in without fully thinking or forming a strategy.

Ben's fitghting style is similar to that of Jonathan Joestar from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, preferring to brawl rather than use his magnums,

[blackopsracing321]

Hello my name is Mike, and I would like to throw Asher from my series Abducted into the ring.

NAME: Asher Kline
AGE: 13
HEIGHT: 5'2"

STRENGTHS:
Asher is the son of a retired lightweight boxing champion. His father began teaching him boxing at an early age, but Asher only recently started to implement what he learned. Since he's so small, his fighting revolves around evasion tactics and counter punches. He practically dodges and pokes at his opponents with jabs until he spots and opening.
He recently discovered that he is an Esper and has telekinetic powers. This allows him to move and lift incredibly heavy objects with his mind. He can also create a telekinetic shield strong enough to withstand a hit from a train and can be deployed fast enough to stop automatic weapon fire.

WEAKNESSES:
Asher is incredibly timid and will freeze up when terrified. His esper abilities also take a toll on his body, causing nose bleeds and extreme overuse will cause him to pass out completely.
At this point in the story he doesn't have complete control over his telekinesis nor does he know the full extent of his abilities. This can be a problem because he doesn't know how long he can use his powers before losing consciousness.

[El_Psy_Congroo]

Would it be possible to tell us who we're paired with earlier? Between inktober and my comic, I'm not sure I'll be able to finish it by the deadline =/
