The United Army have been teleported to their castle for preparation. They may not leave the castle until the game begins at midnight tommorrow (about 22 hours away).
Everyone will arrive at their rooms/barracks. Soldiers share barracks with other soldiers. Lieutenants, Generals and Commanders have their own rooms.
The castle is surrounded by a large wall on all sides, with a front gate being the primary entrance/exit, and a small back entrance which is only used with permission.
Inside the walls is the courtyard, leading inside, and the castle yard. You can spar, train, practice moves, or just relax. It has gardens, pools, walkways, etc etc.
The castle itself has four floors and a cellar. There is an elevator, but it's only good with a keycard given by the commander to generals and lieutenants.
-The cellar has some storage supplies and a jail with eight cells that can hold five people each
-The first floor is the dining rooms and other eating areas, kitchen areas, offices and a meeting hall for announcements
-The second floor has the soldier barracks and a DA library with rules, regulations and info. Also has more offices and a Lounge area for relaxing. Info can be posted here on the wall
-The third floor has the General and Lieutenants room. It also has the War Room where all the strategy is discussed between the higher-ups in the army.
-The fourth floor has the Commander room(s), an office (or two, in Dante's case) for the Commanders, and a throne room. The throne room has a balcony, for the commander to step forward and look at the land in front of him/her.
There are 200 guards here, who double as butlers, maids, chefs and other staff. Feel free to interact with them as much as you want. They will stay at the castle for the entire duration of the game, unless they are killed. They were hired simply to do this job, and not fight in the army: just look after the castle.
You may not leave until the game officially begins in 24 hours. At which time, you may begin sending out units onto the battlefield. A thread will be made for each group that has a PC in it.
Remember to assign soldier types, as well as soldiers, to the units.

?Dogs, bloody dogs!?
He stumbled over a wall on the left after sipping from his metal flask. The drink felt warm, and soothing in his empty stomach. The gardens inside the castle were nothing distinctive, just pleasurable little sections decorated with spruced up bushes and statues. There was a stalwart marble plaque engraved smoothly with the word, ?United?.
?Tapion? Tapion the drunk?? came a mockingly low voice from behind him.
A leader of three or four soldiers stood with their hands on their hips with undoubting, self-assertiveness. He looked quite brawny, and a scar on his right eye marked him with courage, or perhaps it was due to his foolhardy attitude. Nevertheless, Tapion didn't seem to be disturbed by the confrontational welcoming of the newcomers, to say the least.
?Make haste, great Tapion! Let me really test your bravery and cunning, let me see if you are really as much as you claim to be, are ye'?? the half-cast brute spat, the cheery group behind sniggered along with his flavourless attempt to intimidate his title.
?You really don't want to question me; I'm well known around the tropical parts of the planet I come from. I'm also famous for the sword I carry on my back. I'm notorious for committing several acts of treachery, and piracy, for that matter. I'm also known to be a very big liar.?
Tapion stood, his dark, green eyes fixed on those who opposed him with a mischievous grin. The drink once in his hand, sat in the pouch on his leather belt. The sword once in it's holster on his leather belt, was now in his hand. He caressed its dentures and embedding, and gingerly flopped forward to spark up the group.
?Are you ready to follow my orders, Men?? he disappeared. Then reappeared behind them, his chin and arms resting on his standing sword. ?...Or not??

Half alseep and half drunk Nappa was thrown into a teletube by some annoying girl. Almost instantly he was teleported to a rather large garden area that surrounded an ancient castle. The castle had to be at least four stories tall, with a magnificent wall it's perimeter.
Stumbling about, trying to find a place to set his massive body to rest for a while. His head was beginning to throb, and his legs seemed as if they were one third jelly, but amazingly Nappa managed to get to a bench. The seat was moistened by the early morning dew, and sent a cold chill up his massive spine.
"Fuck, i am trashed man!" The saiya-jin warrior said to himself out loud, lying down on the bench. "I wonder where that Paragus went off to."
As much as he wanted something to eat, he couldn't move. The effects of the alcohol had taken control of his body, and the saiya-jins legs were completely jelly. He knew that war was on the rise, and he could smell the tension in the air, but there was nothing he could do but wait.
For an elite the wait before the battle was the worst thing. It was in his blood to fight, and he despised waiting, but he'd heard no word from his commanding officers. As Nappa thought, he realized that he had no idea who his commanding officers were or even what they looked like. All he knew was that Paragus was in the same army, and that meant he had someone to fight alongside.
"This is going to be a massacre, i can just tell," Nappa burped, as he slowly drifted off into an alcohol induced sleep. A sleep that he?d hopefully wake up from without a hangover, and a nice sized breakfast sitting in front of him.
(OOC: another short one, but i can't get any time to roleplay... i'm out of town.)

As Jeice stepped into the tele-tube, he was instantly transported to a large dimly lit room, filled with fighters. There were few familiar faces but they were overwhelmed by the unknown ones. He slowly moved himself into a secluded spot in what seemed to be a castle. This whole thing was a little strange to the red fighter but nevertheless he would do what was need of him.
Though this would probably be the last was he took part in. During the last war he was in, he had seen a lot of killing and even more death. However in both of these wars he helped fight against an invading force, and tried to maintain peace within the territory under attack. Though to have peace sometimes there must be destruction.
He was unsure of his duties in this war and didn?t want to get in anyone?s way, so slowly moved towards a chair in the secluded part of the castle. Watching as many soldiers he had never before seen ran back and forth, preparing for the upcoming battle. He sat down and stayed quiet, thinking to himself about what he was about to embark on and if he was sure it was what he wanted for himself. The only thing that was for sure at this point was, when the time came, he would put all of his effort into defeating his opponents to win this war.
He sat motionless with his arms folded and legs tucked under the chair as he waited for word of the fight starting.
(OOC: Realy short and kinda bad...but I wasnt sure what to do and I havn't posted in a while so I threw this up.)

Paragus slowly opened his eye and awoke from a deep slumber. He hadnt even noticed that he had dozed off in the lounge and lost track of the whereabouts of Nappa. The face of a frightened young woman was the first thing the saiyan saw as he awoke.
"Who the hell are you" Paragus said in a half asleep mumble.
"Sir, we tried to wake you, you have to go" She said shaking for a reason the saiyan knew not of.
"What do you mean tried" The warrior said working his way up to a sitting position on top of one of the cozy beds of the large barrack.
The woman extended one finger in a direction right behind the saiyan warrior. He turned to find a middle aged man unconscious laying up against the one of the white walls of the huge room. There was a large crack in the wall where the mans head rested and it looked like he wasnt getting up.
"O jeez, sorry about that" Paragus said standing up from the bed and following the woman past the beaten man and up to a teletube.
"Well step right in, dont be shy" She said practically shoving the saiyan in the teletube as quickly as possible. "Goodbye" She said as the teletube dissapeared right in front of her.
The saiyan had arrived in front of what seemed to be a giant castle. To the best of his knowledge this is where he would spend most of his time in this giant game. He walked into a giant corridor and took in all the scenery. He approached a bench where a familiar friend seemed to be sleeping. It was Nappa and Para knew better not to wake him form his alcohol induced coma.
"Hey Para" A familiar voice said from behind him. It was the red warrior Jeice seated on a medeviel type chair looking pretty happy to find someone he knew and could fight along side of in this giant castle.
OOC:Met up with Jeice and Naps

(OOC: just pointing out that the red text is Dante, my telepathic mastermind. and the bold text is me talking to him.... obviously your not gonna hear that shit)
Nappa lie flat against the hard and cold cement of the bench, while the two companions around him chattered loudly. With a loud snore, the saiya-jin pile of sickness rose up from his hard place, and looked around to see what had just woken up. Noticing two companions from his past, Jeice and Paragus, the confused look on his face turned to an angered one.
?What the fuck are you guys doing, screaming over me like that. I should really kill you both,? Nappa whispered, trying not to raise his voice and aggravate his headache.
?Shut your damn mouth Nappa, I?ll whoop you?? the reddish fighter replied, lifting his fist up to the sitting Nappa view.
The saiya-jin elite couldn?t help but laugh at his companion?s comments just now. Jeice had no idea what powers he gained since the last time they?d met, and that would be his downfall. Nappa noted this fact, hoping he?d remember it when this war was over so he could hunt the red bastard down.
?So Paragus did I miss anything?? the bald fighter asked, still trying not to move his head much.
The Yuengling lager in his stomach churned as he lifted himself up from the seat, instantly making him want to piss. ?No I don?t think so man, I just got here,? the one-eyed fighter implied.
?Monsieur, don?t break the seal man. You know what happens when you break the seal, you?ll be going all night long, and I can smell the war looming overhead. You don?t want to be pissing every ten minutes during a war do you?? questioned the Count, returning to his vision.
?Yeah you?re right man, I can?t go!? Nappa replied, sitting back down onto the bench.
?So have you guys heard anything about this competition since you got to the barracks?? Jeice asked, flopping himself down against a wall opposite of him.
?Nah, I haven?t heard anything at all man. It?s been pretty lame so far, but I can?t wait till this shit starts,? the bald saiya-jin replied instantly, stirring his headache up even more.
?Lets go explore this place, I?m freaking hungry guys,? Paragus spat, jumping into the conversation.
Nappa nodded, knowing it would be good for his hangover to get something in his system other than alcohol. The three warriors lifted themselves off their asses, and headed down the hallway in search of a kithcen.
