Default Universal Smash Bros 4: Brawl on!

Welcome to...


Rhomp rhomp

You hear the sounds of cheering and clapping as you approach the arena. You nerves start to tingle as you approach.

Rhomp rhomp

You enter the building, stepping up the walkway. Your excitement grows as you see people rushing around trying to find their ways to their seats. You look down at your ticket...

So you see a lad dressed in uniform standing against the wall. You walk over to him and show him your ticket.

Right this way! He says, snapping to attention with a smile, and taking you to a suite.

Rhomp rhomp

Upon entering the suite, you see the field before you. A large screen is across the way, with a view very similar to yours through the window. Glancing around you see surrounding the field at ground level are a bunch of suites similar to yours. A few of the other suites have people you recognize.
Spoiler

Rhomp rhomp
The cheering gets louder as the players enter the field.
Spoiler

You cheer as you see your favorite player on the field. As you wave your hands wildly about, you notice the player do the same. Curiously, you watch as the player mimics your actions in your suite.
Rhomp rhomp
A loud voice comes over the PA.

Ladies and Gentlemen and Creatures of all ages. Welcome to Universal Smash Brothers 4. Your players are ready, your seats are filled. I only got one question.

ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE?

The fans go wild. A horn sounds.
BWAH

You spot across the way a friend of yours. You try to get his attention by pointing and waving at him. You notice your player on the field go and attack another one. The other attacks back.

Hey, that hurt.

It's at this point you notice the writing underneath each of the suite windows.

Player Controller Box.

As the realization that you are not just a viewer of this game, but a participant, sweeps over you you figure out what you have to do.

You must fight to stay alive. You must fight to win.

Good luck!

A warrior clad in green grabs a boomerang from his side and throws it at MasterofMockery

Note: I am not actually Link
Seriously I'm not

Also, does this game have the return of the message board?

(I point at Istari because he's not Link and that's all I have to go on. Statistically if X is the number of good guys roles and Z is the number of total roles, then most people have a X/Z chance of being a good guy, since they could be anybody including Link. However, Istari has X-1/Z chance of being a good guy since he can't be Link. Since X-1 is less than X, he has a less likely chance of being a good guy.

Since he has a less likely chance of being a good guy, he has a higher chance of being a bad guy.

34/50 = 68% chance of being a good guy
33/50= 66% chance of being a good guy.)

A masked figure slowly approaches the ticket booth and whips out her entry ticket, holding the slim sliver of paper between her index and middle finger before sending it spiraling towards the young man passing out tickets, the paper striking and adhering to his forehead like a ninja scroll.

The Boy frowns and yanks it off, scowling angrily at the masculine woman (or effeminate man? it was hard to tell...)
"You could have just -handed- it to me!"

"Ah... but that is infinitely less fun..." the woman (and her voice does strongly imply that that is what she is) answers, before pointing violently at the ground and vanishing in a puff of smoke.

The Lad sees no more her, but an explosion of smog abruptly erupts behind
Dark Comet, the woman offering "Ah... I... uh... wrong both?" meekly as she becomes aware of not being alone...

((I'ma play Sheik anyway! HA!))

((Wolfbane because I almost never get to point at him! And for the moment, I can do so without fear of him being lynched. Woot!))

A tiny little dragon, crimson in color, about the size of a cat, flies around the arena. Her voice is squeaky, little wings flapping like mad to keep her up. Several people comment on the cute little flying cat, which just makes her angry. Finally frustrated, she unleashes her flame breath! - and browns someone's toast. They thank her, and she flies off, still grumbling. "Foolish humans. I am Ruby, a mighty dragon! They will all rue the day, oh yes."

((Cookie for anyone who gets the reference.))

How about a friendly CD4 point.

One of the players seems to be confused by his console. Despite his best efforts, he seems unable to manipulate the buttons due to the giant rubber gloves on his hands. He cries out in protest.

"MMpprphp MmmPPRRR!"

An immaculate white-and-red wolf trots into the suite, accompanied by a bouncing little sprite. Her first action is to look down into the arena; his is to hop to the suite's minibar and try to open it. Failing, he bounces back to the wolf.

"Look, Ammy! There's our contact - what is-" Ammy - or Omikami Amaterasu - flips the little bug in the air and catches him in her mouth, before looking around. There might have been a fleeting shadow leaving its hiding-place behind the door; there might have been hidden eyes in the wall. Either way, Wandering Poet Issun needed to be quieted. After all, their contact required the utmost secrecy. There were those who would take advantage of their deal, after all.

She spits him out onto the controller, and Issun hops up and down in fury. "What the heck was that for, Ammy? I nearly suffocated in there!" He looks around him as Ammy shakes her head. "Hey, what's this? Looks like a controller of some kind! I bet if I hit the buttons and you used your Celestial Paintbrush, we could really help our contact out! Heh heh heh!"


On the other side of the arena, Trixie notices a giant colorful bomb suddenly manifest itself next to her player, exploding for massive damage. She looks up to see a white wolf on the opposite side, wagging its ink-stained tail.

Nyula slips into the shadows and ends up at the unattended jewelery booth. When the attendant returns, he finds that every item has vanished from his booth, along with an unopened can of NinTenCoke.

"Hey! Who's nicked my stuff?!"

Nyula checks that her Pokemon-to-Human translator is on, and suanters over to the stand.

"I saw everything!" she says, with an innocent look on her face. "It was that guy over there! The Meowth Hand thingamababble!" Nyula points one of her claws at Reinholdt.

The attendant says "Thanks!" and goes off to confront Reinholdt. Nyula shakes her head in disbelief and opens her can of NinTenCola.
