Training/Spars Sign ups!

[swordfucker]

Hello!! I'm hopping in here right before I head out for the day to provide an ooc sign up sort of thing for Guren's post. Rather than have everyone spar or train with Guren, which is a little limited, I thought it would be fun for him to set people up.

The way this works is Guren will take a look at who agreed to help for teaching/sparring, and who agreed to have an interest in learning, and match some partners out of it! It's something you can handwave with people or work out threads every so often without a strict schedule, just assuming that Guren will check up on them every so often. (And icly, he will unless you'd like to request that he not.)

So! I'll have a couple threads below, and you can fill out this little form:
<b>Player name:</b> <b>Character name:</b> <b>Character weapon:</b> fighting style of choice, any info regarding that <b>Extra:</b> Guren doesn't just pair people up by fighting ability. He'll be looking at matching personality types and wanting to encourage friendship, too, so anything that would help me choose for that would go here! <b>Is more than one partner okay?:</b> Let me know if you'd rather only get one piece of extra CR from this! Guren may find certain characters more flexible and able to work with more than one person, or maybe you want your character to both be a teacher and a learner, things like that.

If there are any other questions, just let me know below! For those who would like your character to be involved but they wouldn't ICly sign up, if Guren just assigning them someone out of the blue would help, fill out a form and let me know we're assuming that, since he's totally the type. I'll get to any questions and the rest of my tags once I'm home from work. Pair ups will happen at first by Friday, right before whatever the event is, but it's never too late to sign up! Guren will occasionally remind people over the network if it goes well and anyone who signs up late will get someone, even if it's Guren until others sign up again.

Unwilling Teacher / General Bully

[crowsigliere]

Player name: Laci!
Character name: Kyrie
Character weapon: Can't really teach his crows, and he prefers rifles, but he has a pistol with him. If he can be lent a sword, he's handy with one of those too! His skillset is insanely vast though--swords, knives, pistols, rifles, shotguns, sniping, you name it. He might not be able to physically partake in more hand-to-hand stuff because scarecrow, but in theory he knows how to teach most common forms of combat.
Extra: He's not really up for being a general sparring partner for these folks because he's Very Fragile. But if he can be convinced/forced into teaching, he'll be really useful!! Kyrie is Rude, and ruthless when it comes to teaching though, so he'd need to be paired with someone who can handle some (mostly verbal) abuse and general unfairness.
Is more than one partner okay?: If more than one partner is willing to put up with him, sure!

Okay, I'm going to reply to everyone here just to let you know I'll be getting to IC responses right now! Guren will hit up their inbox privately to give these assignments, so I wrote them out ICly one by one. I didn’t follow any sort of format and went off my lists, so hopefully I didn’t miss anything. If you'd like to thread out with me, feel free, and know that Guren will stubbornly keep the assignments unless you tell me OOCly (privately or here is fine) that something doesn't work! Or you can ignore my comment and go straight to plotting with the others who signed up. I hope everyone has fun with this!

You can also let me know if you’d like Guren to give specific instructions/assignments to teacher/student teams or sparring partners. If you can’t work out who’d win, you can also ask me to RNG for you or decide based on what I think…! Basically just let me know how I can help in any way. ♥

(since you don't have an ic inbox, I'll post it here! let me know if you want me to move it or not)

Maybe you weren’t paying attention, but I need you to do something for me. Minato is in need of a teacher, so I assigned him to you. He can be reached at #3630FF. He says he can wield just about anything, so you’d make a good match. I’ll provide wooden swords if you need them, but I’d rather see you teach him using unconventional methods.

I won’t make you spar, so just do this for him. If you can piss him off, I’ll give you a reward.

There are no changes. If you back out of this, you’re letting everyone down, so go tell them yourself and don’t waste my time again. I’m not holding your hand through all of this, but you can let me know if you have questions. That’s all.
