Pretty much the same deal as before, with one minor adjustification...

Yes, this fight WILL be sanctioned this time (as in it IS under the mod's jurisdiction), with the exception that he can't officially declare winners or losers by default or draws/stalemates. Keep in mind that it's over only until one of the fighters either dies, forfeits, or gets disqualified (very rarely does that happen in my SBs, though). For example, inadvertantly breaking a rule or two in a single post won't earn you a disqualification, or even doing so in several of your posts. What WILL get you the "big boot", however, is simply refusing to edit a post that violates any of the rules for this fight when asked to do so on either the first or second offense, depending on the severity of the violation (unless it's for good reason, which is where the attaining "mod" may come in and decide whether or not the action brought out should have been legal). Sound fair enough? Okay, good. Now, moving on to the actual SB rules for this fight (they look closely identical to the standard rules, with a few minor adjustments)...

1)Outside interfierence of any kind is STRICTLY forbidden, first and foremost
2)You may only attack ONCE per turn unless it's a combo
3)You may only counter-attack ONCE per turn unless it's a combo
4)Direct teleportation forbidden
4)No arena change techniques
5)No vehicles permitted-USE IT AND LOSE IT! In other words, any vehicle use will result in a, what I like to call, Red Flag (as in loss of a turn AND automatic loss of the vehicle you were using/driving). Use a vehicle, lose a turn. Three Red Flags will result in a DQ
6)Miraculous dodging/blocking forbidden*
7)No god-modding-As in you can't decide if your attacks are successful or not, but in contrast, you can't always evade your opponent's attacks (see above). Certain spells/magic/sub-techniques CAN be "automatic", but with disgretion. If you're unsure of which ones can particularly bend this rule and which ones must abide, you may ask me via either "OFF/OCC" notes or through Private-Messaging
8)No healing techs allowed-Especially full recoveries. I've noticed Zerodius' "Mewtwo" character (a rather familiar face who HE apparently uses for his own stories/character storylines/SBs) has an incany ability to use that "Recover" tech (which regenerates most, if not ALL of his health meter once casted), which is just a waste of energy to fight someone using this ability if you ask me, let alone, ask anyone, and they'll say the same thing. Even minor/moderate heal techs are forbidden; it's ALL about the survival of your character, and thus, this makes it much easier and shorter
9) Instant-Death techs are permitted-They are ONLY against the rules if you actually decide that they work; in short, killing your opponent "right on the spot", hence Rule #7.

Now that I've pretty much summed up the rules for the actual battle, here are the stipulations.

This is a Pick-Your-Poison type SB, which means that you get to choose not only your opponent, but the stipulation as well. For instance, you may choose from one of the following opponents (reader beware! It's a tougher choice than you might think!)...

Elite Seph: Cyborg/Cybornetic Organism (NOT A TERMINATOR! Though it can be, in some way, like one). Elite Class. Possess uncany energy and a large variety of elemental and energy-type spells. Relies on his regeneration ability for self-defense AND has a Finishing Move (In-Penitraball) that can be REALLY hard to fight out of if you're not careful, or otherwise smart enough, even more difficult to survive. His biggest asset, however, is his prolongued Acmlm Board Sim-Battle win streak under my name, taking out even some of the best to come around (I won't point out any names, since I don't want to "rub it" in anyone's face, but there are several of them). This is the one challenge which experts would claim as the place where many legends go to die. Difficulty setting: Very Hard. Fight with caution (good experience, though, if you REALLY want to prove yourself as a worthy SBer).

Prize for beating him: Acmlm Board Sim-Battling Championship Title/Belt-Spread the word about how good--and successful--or a sim-battler you really are, thus give yourself something to fight for and defend in any future sim-battles.

OR...

Kraven Novak: Vampire/Dark Spirit, Class Undead. Has a mind of his own, and with a stone-cold temper no one would confuse with the Devil itself, is more clearly portrayed as "psychotic" personified. Is completely unafraid to go after similar, tougher opponents, namely NeoBowser (in a VERY old, dated timeline [not a sim-battle]), and usually comes out on top nonetheless due to his dark, glamorous perception of opponents and their techniques and his sneekiness. Whenever someone sees large, dark clouds of purple haze swarming about them, they know to get the hell out of the way, for this guy is one mean, lean, killin' machine, and thus, he is so unpredictable one would wonder if and when he would actually strike. Possesses several "automatic" (as in instantaneously-affecting/inflicting) special techs that can pile up hit damage like crazy, and can be avoided ONLY if you somehow manage to prevent him from unleashing such attacks in the act in some way. Difficulty setting: Next-to-Impossible. Highly recommended for only the skilled and experienced of fighters.

Prize for beating him: Jewel of Kortana-Special gem that allows the caster to "alter" the course of any dimension, thus giving him or her the biggest advantage possible during any and all sim-battles.

Result for choosing the #2 challenger? Bigger reward, but tougher opponent, and that REALLY is saying something! It's hard to believe the two of them are actually allies, working and fighting beside eachother in the war against the UEN (story-related info; not regarding any SBs) instead of ripping out eachother's souls like they've never been ripped before! #1 just gives you a name for yourself (albeit an astoundingly big name), while #2 gives you something you can actual use and benefit you in future sim battles, which is an added plus.

Once you've hand-picked your opponent, you may choose one of four stipulations:

Graveyard Battle-The arena takes place in a dark, murky cemetery, notably called the Mortuary of a Thousand Souls. Both fighters can use the graves and tombstones to their (bone-chilling) advantage, though the host (either Kraven or Elite Seph) may be able to better utilize them since it is a site they are VERY familar with, catch my drift?

Ring-Out Battle-The arena is set on a cobbel platform with set boundaries around each side of the arena and somewhere marked high above it as well. Ring-Outs can be held either outside the platform or somewhere high above it, namely past 30 feet. Anything above 30 feet over the arena stage is considered a Ring-Out, and thus, the match is over, meaning you can lose in one of three ways: if you forfeit, if you fall out of the ring (or over it past the 30 foot mark), or if you die (or if you get disqualified, which I don't see happening... unless you try to!)

The-Sky-is-the-Limit Battle: Battle takes place on a large metal platform in the sky, surrounded in a sea of raging storms. Beware; you might actually get caught in the storm! Battle ends if you knock your opponent clear off the platform without him coming back up to reach the platform's surface (in short: fall to his death), or, better yet! You don't even have to hassle yourself by knocking him off the edge! You can merely drain all of his Life Force and just plain kill him for the win here as well... if you can! The choice is yours...

Survival-of-the-Fittest Battle: Arena is set somewhere in the heart of a city wrecked with warfare! Bullets are shot, men are killed, blood is spilt, and buildings crumble and burn in this cinematic turn-of-events type battle! Survive not only your opponent, but the arena's aftermath as well, walking out of it the last man standing, and win! But beware: you don't want to get caught in the crossfire!

Alright, now that that's straightened out, don't forget that ANY of these stipulations can be faught and dealt with under EITHER fighter: Kraven or Seph, though one might have a bigger advantage in certain stipulations than in others, just remember! Good luck, and pick wisely!

*Side Note: Before I actually finish unveiling this special Invitational, I would just like to inform you that, contrary to my last Invitational (against Dracoon's "Odin" character), where I was all "nice and subtle" about the rules, I've a change of plans for the first person to accept this open challenge. I'm going to be a bit more "strict" about the rules than before. I let it slide last time when my previous challenger (Dracoon/Odin) would ALWAYS evade my attacks, even when I made it to where they couldn't be dodged so easily, and just look at where we ended up with that mess! That said, NOONE is getting away with ANYTHING this time around! This, of course, doesn't mean I'll be handing out DQs more frequently than before. You may (and at some point and time, problably will), however, be asked to "edit" questionable posts every now and then to where they aren't "bending" the rules, or, for that matter, breaking them, taking it even further. In short, keep it clean... better yet, squeaky clean!

Oh, and one OTHER thing: due to the ongoing success, and overwhelming power, of my characters, ANYONE of the challenger's characters are welcome EXCEPT for Zerodius' "NeoBowser" character in part (should he be the one to "step up to the plate", which I doubt he will anyway). As for you, Dracoon, if you are at home reading this, if you thought my Elite Seph character was cheap, just wait until you see NeoBowser in action. He's MUCH worse! Half his moves can't be countered, evaded, OR blocked in ANY way, shape, or form (as in they, once casted, "automatically" affect your character one way or another), unlike Seph's attack set, which consist of only a few "super" techs which are like that, and even then, they are normally just on hand to "scare" my opponents away from god-modding in this fight (he did so last time, and it cost him big, sorry to say). In short, for "reference only", so to speak. Err... I think that pretty much sums it up for anything that needs to be said.

OFF: Simple comment to Seph2k4... yes, NeoBowser IS cheap. He is the end boss for the most of the Chronicles of Darkness storylines... and as such, he should NEVER be used in simbattles... but well, I posted a fight for this character back in the day when I was still designing the character and tought that everyone would guess out of the blue how to counter his moves.

As a "Boss" character, NeoBowser cannot be defeated using conventionnal means. In fact, while his Avatar form can be beaten using regular techs, his true form is ONLY affected by Dark Weapon and techs using Dark Weapons (Unison Attacks and Full Synchro Attacks works too). Also, since NeoBowser has the dreaded Eternum spell, the character fighting him MUST have "Ex" being blood or else, NeoBowser has to say only one word for the fight to end. NeoBowser is meant to be fought with several characters and in battles in which healing IS ALLOWED since NeoBowser has insanely damaging auto-hitting moves that would shred to pieces even the strongest party if they weren't allowed to heal.

Anyway...

I will now join this fight but I'll use a different character from usual... unstead of using Admiral Zerodius or Ex Lightheart, I'll use the UEN's most idiotic agent and main source of shame: Captain Dark.

____________________________________________________________________

Lieutenant Shadow: "Go on! Choose an enemy already!"

Captain Dark: "Yo yo yo YO yo yo?"

Fierce Deity: "Come on! It doesn't take THAT long to decide!"

Lieutenant Shadow: "Yeah... he has been thinking for 5 hours now..."

Captain Dark: "YO! FOUND MY TARGET MAN!"

(all the other Anti-Exs): "FINALLY!"

Captain Dark: "Yo'll fight... er... forgo'! Gimme minute!"

(the Anti-Exs falls over, anime fashion)

Captain Dark: "Hmmm..."

Assassin: "System error. Boredom level too high. Evacuating."

The Anti-Exs left Captain Dark alone.

Captain Dark stood there for 5 more hours... and finally decided himself!

Captain Dark: "Yo chose Kraven Novak man! I'll rough him up, dude!... and yo'll take da Ring-Out Battle mode!"

OFF: Okay... I guess I exaggerated a bit when referring to NeoBowser, BUT he is still unacceptably "cheap," and that's really saying a lot because I never seem to have a problem with anyone's characters, just the way "some" people use them (NeoBowser is problably the only one I'd look up to as being "too cheap" for my taste). As if his resistance to just about anything weren't enough (save for the Dark Weapon of course), he still has... those moves, and you know which ones I'm talking about.

Also, regarding the rules, I've decided to take something out of the NFL rule book in this bout, and it shall apply for all other SB challenges that I start in the near (or even no-so near) future... any questionable post by the opposing challenger CAN be brought into review if you feel that it is a violation of any of the SB rules in any way, and can be overturned, BUT it has to be conclusive evidence. This is to ensure that no further biased/unfair decisions by either the host/starter of this thread and/or the Mods/Admins are made. This applies for the Mods/Admins as well... he or she has the right to judge which actions in user's posts are legal and which aren't, but he or she must prove it using logical evidence to back it up (in other words, they can't just come in any say "OMG U C@NT D0 THAT!1!" without reasoning. He has to prove it ). Sound fair? I don't know about you, but to me it sounds fair enough, so... let's get this SB going (sorry for the long delays BTW)!
____________________________________________________________________
Computer: It is done.....

FLASH!

Captain Dark was teleported outside the Waiting Room, and into the Void Between Dimensions, the Host's main inhibitor. Before him stood a large computer, making clear of his next destination... a large cobble stone platform out in the open, in some random village, surrounded by whordes of random people who may have a death wish on their minds for all we know.

Before him stood a large purple, Vampirial menace who merely saw using a pair of large Snake Eyes, which allowed him to see things most any living or nonliving being could see on this Earth, or anywhere else. His Eyes were gleeming with hatred, which consistently fueled him with strength by the minute. He was a being so cold, so chaotic, so relentless, so unpredictable he would strike fear into almost any one's eyes when they laid their sights upon him. He was standing there, heartbroke and waiting... waiting for the moment in which the one person would come for him to unleash every ounce of his rage upon... and that moment is now.

Kraven was intruiged by Captain Dark, since he seemed to "know" him oh so well... too well, as a matter of fact.

Kraven: "Ah... Captain Dark, is it? Another hellraiser from the UEN I see... strong but overconfident, perhaps, but worthy of my beating nevertheless, so... go ahead, and make the first move!"

OFF: This should be an interesting fight. Since Captain Dark is predictable and never learns... it is not to devise a strategy against that is hard... it is to make sure it works. Captain Dark, as the strongest Anti-Ex physically, can endure ungodly amounts of damage and deplete one Life Force faster than one can say "YOOOO MAN!". I don't know if he'll be a match for Kraven... but Captain Dark should at least give him a difficult time at least once during this fight.

____________________________________________________________________

Captain Dark: "Yo yoyo YO MAN!"

Captain Dark took the fighting stance of a boxer and began to advanced rather quickly toward Kraven. He was looking incredibly ridiculous... but those who know about Captain Dark knows that the more moronic he looks like when doing an attack, the stronger the attack will be, usually... and Captain Dark is the very definition of the word "strenght".

According to rumors, his punches and kicks are so powerful that they can pierce even the strongest metal and they're so quick that they set the very air on fire, igniting the target and burning them from the inside.

...

Captain Dark, most surprisinly, made it in close under 5 seconds. Seeing from the look on his face, Kraven's vocabulary was just too complex for Captain Dark's simply brain to understand.

Captain Dark: "O-v-e-r-c-o-n-f-i-d-e-n-t? Big... word... complicated... Can't... understand... YOOOOO!"

Captain Dark yelled like an idiot before throwing a combo of 12 quick punches toward Kraven's jaw. Should they connect, they will leave Kraven completely stunned, allowing Captain Dark to finish his combo with a flaming uppercut, inflicting massive damage and sending him flying, in flames.

Should Kraven dodge or block (with countering) the punches, Captain Dark will quickly duck and spins like a top, kicking Kraven's legs and probably causing him to trip.

In both cases, Kraven would have to be extremely agile and have top-notch reflexes in order to avoid damage.
