"These deathmatches are simply fabulous!"

It occurred to me that rather than trying to skilfully and deftly supply hints in the opening posts, I should do a stats-dump for the hosts of the events. As these two hosts probably won't be around for more than this plot, I shall put it here rather than adding them to the mod NPC list. So here are things your characters may or may not notice about the two weirdos sitting up in the Emperor's box playing Go Fish.

Incidentally, there wasn't going to be a 'gender' section, and then Kisha made a bad joke.



INDIVIDUAL STATS

» TITLE: The King
» AGE: He stopped ageing somewhere in his thirties
» GENDER: A Man's Man. The Man your Man could be.
» LANGUAGE: Something that a linguist might assume to be vaguely one of the Semetic languages, though of course the machine translates.
» BUILD: Really Rather Big. We're talking Rider-sized here, seven feet tall and with the muscle to back it up. HE CAN CRUSH CARS WITH HIS BARE HANDS. Or maybe not. But he looks like he could. 'Big'un' is probably the most apt description ever given to him. He could sell Old Spice, and that's what matters.
» EYES: Dark brown
» HAIR: Black, long and wispy, goes down to about his elbows. It's soft and pretty! I want to run my hands through his hair, and I'm just the sound of your thoughts turning symbolic representations of words into sounds then translated into meaning. Maybe the king can be in a L'Oréal commercial when he's done selling Old Spice.
» CLOTHING: Royal and combat-ready, though not armoured. Robes of black sable fur and gold threading, bound with a gold and black sash in his family’s traditional pattern, breeches, thick boots.
» JEWELLERY: Gold, gold, and more gold. Gold rings, gold bracelets, gold necklaces. And he tends to set his jewellery with fire opals, but the gold is what matters.
» WEAPONRY: An old sword with a jewelled pommel, kept openly at his side (all the better for an impromptu beheading), and a deck deck of Tarot cards in a gold case.
» DEMEANOUR: That callous, cold, self-assured arrogance of a born warrior king.


» TITLE: The Liar
» AGE: He stopped ageing somewhere in his late twenties
» GENDER: Faaaaaaabulous
» LANGUAGE: He'll speak the same language as the King by default, but if alone with someone else, he will generally speak whatever language they are using in whatever dialect is most prestigious in their place and time period. Except his Japanese. He always uses a Kyoto accent when speaking Japanese.
» BUILD: Acrobatic. He is meant for tricks of movement and not shows of strength.
» EYES: Green.
» HAIR: Blond, cut around his head. Touch it and you die.
» CLOTHING: Half of his clothing seems to have been stolen from Lord Byron, and the other half looks like it came with a complimentary sarcastic comment from Oscar Wilde. Possibly some of it was surreptitiously removed from the set of Granada's Sherlock Holmes. Black frock coat, black boots, assorted black hats, white shirt, white silk cravat. He covers up well; his neck his never visible and he is almost always wearing gloves, so for the most part, his face is the only skin he shows.
» JEWELLERY: Gold and lots of it. Gold rings, gold bracelets hidden under the sleeves of his shirt, a single gold earring (emergency supplies), and gold cufflinks for those awesome barrel cuffs. Or maybe it's barrel cuffs for the sake of having gold cufflinks.
» WEAPONRY: A black Russian revolver (which means seven bullets, so no punks will ever feel lucky when facing him) hidden away inside his jacket, and a deck of Tarot cards in a gold case.
» DEMEANOUR: Playful, theatrical, as hard to hold as a smooth glass pane, and always smiling.


SHARED STATS

» PSIONIC ABILITIES: Unbreakable telepathic shields for thoughts and emotions.
» COMPOSITION: Not what it looks or feels like. To break it down, their hair is made of string, their skin is made of clay, their blood is mercury, their bones are ivory, their hearts are stone, and their eyes are precious stones like pearl and emerald. This only becomes apparent when the material leaves their bodies. Spilled blood will be obviously mercury, a severed limb will be ivory and clay, and if you tear out one of their eyes, you'll have something to put in that engagement ring.
» MAGIC: Despite their fluent use of magic, there is no inherent magic in either of them. However, those with the sense for it could sense they have been influenced by a God.
» MACHINE CONNECTION: To those who can sense it, they are completely foreign to the Machine.

Yes well it was familiar but I couldn't figure it out until I was watching a doctumentary.

Is that supposed to frighten me? BRING IT.

I can always spam you with things off my video playlist...

If it makes you feel any better, I found out from Wikipedia.

Sam has issues for good reason, man.

It does a little. I did manage to laugh quite a bit when I first heard it and realized.

[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-18 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh my. I shouldn't have been drinking anything.



I like that just cause of the use of color throughout. :|

It is a fun joke! I named a stuffed koala after Frank Morgan, because it came in a box with a baloon

On that note, if you are in an iconing mood, icons of Morgana from Merlin are always a plus, because Kisha and Mel well-know that my type is 'morally-troubled and mentally unstable.'

Ohh, that is really cool use of colour!!!



This one for the multieraness. Also you know how I feel about anything that gives me clips of hilarious Time Lord antics.
Edited 2010-07-18 20:49 (UTC)

Aww that's adorable!

[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-18 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I have caps for both series! I haven't begun watching myself but I've been making icons out of the caps I have to occupy my time. I got distracted by other shiny things aka series three DW confidentials. ..There's nothing wrong with that.

Isn't it?! I love it. There's another, let me see..



You get that for now! I still can't get over the outfits, man. XD

It was a very sweet koala, despite its name.

[personal profile] semantics 2010-07-18 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm, Series 3 Confidentials. Extra Martha and the Master, what more could I want?

Oh that makes me want to dance. I love Time Lord dress sense. It is the best. Therefore:

Aww I'm sure he was!

[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-18 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I will have to look through for some Martha.

It is a very good song for that. They run around in funny looking dresses robes all day, it is hilarious. And the headdress, that's like a deadly weapon there. Ohh, you brought drum beats into this.

I'm quite sure you already know the song but I love how well it's synced up.

[personal profile] semantics 2010-07-19 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
It is hard to take them seriously, as a rule.

Ohhh man, that synching was freaking awesome. Hmm, the video I best remember for its beatmatching is from a show you don't know, so I'll give you it and a bonus video.



[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
What show was the first one? And EEE Club Foot! I love that song!

So I give you two.



[personal profile] semantics 2010-07-19 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Ouran High School Host Club! It's where Kyouya is from. Kyouya is the amoral, winning-obsessed human incarnation of Business who does everything in his power to make his best friend happy, which in his case means that he manages a ridiculous club of high school semi-prostitutes. It's both less disturbing and more insane than it sounds. Kyouya is probably best summed up by this:



Though of course he'd never depose Tamaki, because Kyouya, like everyone else in the show, is in love with him.

I really liked the image editing in those two. And I quite like that second song. The first two, but I own it.

[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
HAHA! Oh that song. I haven't heard that in forever. It does look like an interesting show. And I have plenty of videos where that came from.

Now I want to make dancing!Sam icons...



This is just a song, the video I found cut it off:



[personal profile] semantics 2010-07-19 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
It is a fun show! I watched it over spaghetti last night, as it is the ultimate half-hour pick-me-up. Most of its episodes leave me with a really dumb smile on my face, I admit.

If you make dancing!Sam icons, I'll find a way to make Sam dance.

I see your epic and emotional camp and I give you OTT and ridiculous camp.



Also, I looooove that song. It's so delightfully twisted.

[identity profile] passionstorm.livejournal.com 2010-07-19 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Those are the best sorts of shows!

Yesss. *cackles evilly*

LMAO Oh I love that so much.

Have a goofy video.

There is only one reply to that:
